Megan was prompt and easy to work with, did everything I asked her to, and provided messages about my cats and pictures of them with each visit. Having Megan cat sit for me was my first rover experience, and there's nothing more I could have asked for. I highly recommend booking with Megan if you're looking for a cat sitter.

About: I started caring for dogs in 2017 when my family welcomed our first dog into our home. Since then, I’ve gained experience caring for my neighbors’ and friends’ dogs, providing them with attention, companionship, walks, and loving care. In 2024, I welcomed my own dog, Milo, a mini Goldendoodle who has helped me grow even more as a pet owner. I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and care I give my own. Taking care of pets is already a part of my everyday life with my dog Milo. I enjoy going on walks, playing, and making sure he feels happy and cared for. I love creating a safe and loving environment for pets, and I’m excited to bring that same care and attention to your furry family member. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I like to follow their normal routine, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just giving them some extra attention and company. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I treat every dog like I would treat my own dog, Milo. I’m also happy to send updates and pictures so you can feel reassured that your pet is having a great time while you’re away.

Anne did a great job petsitting Charlie. She watched him in the afternoon when I had to go into work. She arrived on time, followed all the instructions we provided for his care, and we came home to a happy puppy.

Kennedy has been watching our pup for two weeks now and she is incredible. She must come with lots of energy because Tyche is always running around like crazy, which is really good for her. Kennedy's wrap up notes are fantastic as are her pictures. She is communicative and dependable. We are so happy she's watching our girl!

Our puppy loves Devora!! She is communicative, prompt, reliable, and we know that our puppy is in good hands. She initiated a meet-and-greet before we booked and we could tell she was a good fit right away. She takes Nala on long walks, plays, and sends lots of cute picture updates. We are so lucky to have her watch our pup!

About: With 15+ years of experience caring for a variety of dog breeds, sizes, ages, and behaviors, your dog(s) will feel right at home with my care. Neighbors, friends, and family have entrusted me to walk, feed, house sit, and more for their fur babies. I am flexible and available starting in the early morning into the evening, to help care for your pup. As well as overnight help too! To ensure your dog's comfort and safety, I will ask you for helpful notes and directions about care, walk, and meal preferences, as well as any house rules I should be aware of. I'm responsible, timely, and always aware of my surroundings, ensuring your dog and house's safety is top priority.

Kelly did great stopping in and watching my cat for the week I was at the beach. This was the first time I had someone watch my cat since he went on his meds and since his brother passed away, but Kelly did a great job administering his medicine and I loved the updates showing all the hugs and playtimes my cat was receiving while I was away! Thanks Kelly!

Maryam, Was such a sweet and attentive cat sitter. We have two cats with very different personality, and she did well caring for both of them. She followed instructions well and was detailed about her check ins. She’d call or message when needed and sent pictures of the cats. I will definitely work with her again. A+

About: For 11 years I was a Yorkie’s mom ( her name was Mimi) and for 17 years and 8 months a Shorkie’s mom (his name was Apollo). Now my precious babies crossed the rainbow Mimi in January 2024 then Apollo joined her over the rainbow on November 2025 and I miss them so very much.. I am an accountant and I am working part time from home and missing my furry babies terribly.So, I would love to help you care for your doggies. I absolutely love animals specially dogs and I have a special place in my heart for them. I care for pets as if they were my own, always prioritizing their safety, comfort, needs and routine. During walks, I use properly fitted collars or harnesses and I always listen to the dog’s needs and I let them choose their route and pace, always making sure they are away from harm’s way. With Mimi and Apollo I always said: “I don’t walk them they walk me”.

Amanda did an amazing job taking care of our two dogs while we were gone for a few days! They were clearly very happy when we got home and she kept us posted with lots of cute pictures while we were gone. She even left them some treats and made sure their things were tidy on her last visit. We would 100% have her care for them again.

She was available to come on such short notice to do a check-in on my puppy Nova while we were out and sent plenty of photos and updates while they were together! She took Nova on a nice walk and hung out with her/made sure she had water before leaving. My home was the way we left it when we returned - I would happily have her watch Nova again !

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Dunn Loring

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Dunn Loring on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 15,496 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Dunn Loring. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Dunn Loring stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Dunn Loring choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Dunn Loring with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dunn Loring. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
