“Amanda did a great job with my two cats. She came on time and sent pics. One cat is very friendly the other very fearful. She handled both very well. Thank you Amanda!”

“Elizabeth is incredible. She is communicative, responsive, and loves my dog as if she was her own. She always gives updates and is clear with expectations and timing, which I greatly appreciate. Sweet potato loves Elizabeth!”
“Sierra house sat for us and was respectful to our house, kept my plants alive (maybe better than I can), and most imporantly took great care of our cats. She was in very good communication with us if our cats needed anything and I felt very comfortable knowing she was watching our house and pets. We will contact her first if we ever need house sitting/pet watching again”
“Mitzi was really great! Communicated consistently and her care for my cat while I was away gave me real peace of mind. And my cat was definitely much happier when I came back home.”
“I can’t thank Tricia enough! This was the first time my cat ever had a cat sitter and let someone in my own and Tricia was so communicative and kind from the very beginning to the meet and greet. All the photos each visit made me feel a little less sad being away knowing she was in great hands!! Just amazing attention to detail took so many notes from the meet and greet reached out with questions!! I am so thankful to have found her!!!!”
About: What sets me apart is that I truly treat every pet as if they were my own. I grew up with two dogs and have years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities. I've cared for family members' dogs, including senior dogs with health conditions that required administering daily medications and providing extra patience and attention. I've also helped care for friends' young puppies, reinforcing potty training, maintaining routines, and giving them plenty of playtime and affection. I understand how important consistency, communication, and trust are when leaving your pet with someone else. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a calm companion, or a little extra care due to age or medical needs, I'm committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Also I WORK FROM HOME, makes day caring for your little ones easier. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I work from home!! This helps with me being able to give your little one all the care and attention they need, so you can have peace of mind. I have a pet friendly condo where there are plenty of dog spots to walk and play with your loved one. I can crate a schedule around what they’re used to.
“Chloe was fantastic! I was traveling with Winnie, a Boykin Spaniel puppy, and I had to stop for a few days of Work in the DC Metro. Chloe came over to the hotel and made sure that Winnie was fed, watered, walked and entertained while I worked all day. I'm sure this was a unique situation but Chloe made it work and did an excellent job. I highly recommend using Chloe, Thank you so much!”
“Michael did a great job looking after our dogs and cats. We were gone for two weeks and he was very reliable and responsive the whole time. We were confident everyone was very well taken care of and didn’t have to worry about them while we were away. We will definitely ask Michael to watch everyone again in the future!”
“Fantastic sitting for my dogs on a last minute request! Was very attentive and arrived on schedule to attend to the dogs. Will absolutely check in with her again first for future needs! Thank you!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities over the years. I raised my own dog from puppyhood and also have experience fostering, so I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, crates, and keeping up with your dog’s normal routine. I know how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust with your pet, so I’ll treat them like they’re my own and keep you updated while they’re in my care. I’m also comfortable with multiple-dog households and dogs that may need a little extra patience and attention. I work from home full-time, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I’m also able to accommodate many last-minute requests. If you happen to live in my building or nearby, even better — I’m happy to help with quick walks, drop-ins, or care when something comes up unexpectedly. I live in a secure high-rise and provide a calm, clean environment where your dog will get plenty of individual attention. I’m comfortable following whatever routine your dog is used to, including feeding schedules, walks, crate routines, and any house rules you have in place. I’m very mindful about leash safety, elevators, doors, and interactions with other dogs, and I’ll always keep you updated so you know your pup is safe and happy.
About: I've pet sit for my friends dogs and have raised a corgi puppy from 10 weeks old! I love dogs and will treat yours like mine. I have a playful and friendly corgi who plays well with all dogs. Plus I give excellent scratches. I will send a bunch of photos, as long as you don’t mind me spamming you with them! We do at least 3 walks a day, dog parks after work, and fun adventures on the weekends. Normally we eat breakfast around 8:30, go for a potty walk, and play. During the weekday, I take them out every 4 hours and do mental puzzles at home. If the weather is nice, we will go to a nearby dog park. On weekends, we tend to go out for outdoor adventures if the weather is nice I live in an apartment with ample walking nearby. Super dog friendly neighborhood. We have space to set up crates if needed. I am a neat person and will clean up after myself and the dogs.
About: Hi there! I love animals and have been dog sitting since 2012! I myself have owned dogs growing up and adopted a cat named Albus in 2014! I also have experience with fish, bunnies, chickens, geckos, chameleons, rats, hamsters, guinea pigs, and frogs! I previously volunteered at a local zoo putting together meals for animals so I had plenty of experience with meal prep and feedings, even with live food. If you are not seeing availability for what you need please message me! Please let me know if you have any questions or would like to do a formal interview! I work weekdays between 8 and 5. I am free after work on most Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays and after 7pm Tuesdays and Thursdays. House sitting may be limited to the weekend depending on my work schedule. I may have some flexibility with advanced notice, please feel free to message me if you aren’t seeing availability for what you need. Most of my availability will be during weekends at any time of day. I love playing with animals and will happily keep them entertained! I also will give plenty of pets and affection if you pet enjoys that! I have worked with many dogs and cats of all ages and levels of energy and can accommodate accordingly! I love snapping photos (if ok’d) of your pets to share with you!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dunn Loring
We absolutely loved working with Alison, who watched our two cats while we were away! Our cats immediately warmed up to her (even our shy cat Moki immediately came out and was comfortable with Alison, which is unusual for Moki!). Alison was a great communicator and sent great updates and photos each day. We hope to hire her next time we need a Catsitter as well!
Amanda has cat sat for our senior cat twice now, and went above and beyond both times. Unfortunately, our cat requires an intense medication schedule due to all of the health issues that she’s accumulated over time, which makes it difficult for us owners to travel without worrying about her. Amanda has been able to deliver on that medication schedule with flying colors. We feel so much better and relieved knowing that our needy cat is well taken care of. Thank you, Amanda!
Mitzi was communicative, warm, understanding, and took very good care of my baby, even taking her for walks when my girl showed she wanted it! When there were difficulties with getting into our apartment building, Mitzi went above and beyond to try to help me sort it out. I have total trust in Mitzi and will absolutely be reaching out in the future!
Elizabeth is wonderful! She is taking great care of our cats while we’re away and is very reliable, attentive, and easy to communicate with. She follows all of our instructions carefully, keeps us updated, and gives us peace of mind knowing our cats and home are in good hands. We really appreciate her help and would absolutely trust her to care for them again. Highly recommend Elizabeth!
Elizabeth is the first sitter I ever used for my two cats and I will always rebook with her! She took such great care of my babies and made me feel comfortable knowing they were in good hands especially with one of my cats having a medical condition. Communication was fantastic, she sent an update and photo after every visit, and I could always count on her to be right on time.
He is very reliable and response quickly. We had AC issue while we were away and he visited our house to feed our cat so we asked him to check the AC thermostat. He showed us the thermostat with his Facetime just like he did with our cat. It was helpful to confirm the thermostat was off.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
