About: I’ve cared for pets since I was a little girl! I’ve always been the primary care taker for the animals in my home, even as a child. My love for animals is unmatched! Whether it be dogs, cats, turtles, lizards.. I love them all. I am the go-to pet sitter for all of my friends and family and have been since I was old enough to drive. I am always reliable, have a pretty flexible schedule, and I love to help. I work from home, and create my own schedule, allowing me to have more time to dedicate to giving your pets all the attention they need. I love to be active, and have fun!! I currently work fully remote, so I have plenty of time to check-in or spend extended time with your pets! I love being active and going for walks so it works out perfectly for me, regardless the time of day. I am very respectful of people’s home, as I used to work as an in-home therapist. I’m respectful of boundaries and I know my purpose for entering someone’s home is to help out. I always ensure I follow instructions to a T and make my clients feel as comfortable as possible with me in their homes.

“Jessica was wonderful! She stepped in the day before we left. Our other sitter dropped at the last minute. Jessica came right in, saw the cats the night before we left. She sent us wonderful pictures of them and let us know they were in the best possible hands. We were able to have a wonderful Christmas holiday thanks to Jessica and our complete confidence in her. Thank you Jessica!”

About: As a proud dog mom to two amazing pups a playful 1-year-old German Shepherd and a sweet 3-year-old Poodle I truly understand the energy, patience, and love dogs need at every stage. Caring for my own dogs has taught me how to handle big personalities, different temperaments, and unique routines with ease. I treat every dog like my own, making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or quiet snuggles, I tailor each day to your pet’s personality. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pup is in caring, capable hands not just being watched, but genuinely cared for. Pet care fits perfectly into my stay-at-home routine, which offers me plenty of time and flexibility. I’m home often, take daily walks, and love spending my breaks giving pets extra attention. I’m a stay-at-home mom with experience caring for my two dogs a one year old German Shepherd and a three year old Poodle. I provide pets with love, attention, and a safe, comfortable environment. Walks, playtime, and enrichment activities are part of their daily routine, and I always ensure they are fed, groomed, and happy. I treat every pet like part of my family and enjoy making their time with me fun and stress free.

About: My Personal Approach & Passion for Pets My genuine love for animals is what drives my pet care style. I am patient, trustworthy, and naturally observant, making it easy for me to connect with pets of all temperaments. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a task; it is about providing a warm, low-stress environment where your animals feel entirely safe, happy, and treated like family while you are away. What Sets Me Apart:I offer a highly adaptive environment for all pets and life stages, including dogs, cats, and puppies. I easily handle the high energy and training support needed for playful youngsters, as well as the gentle comfort, slow pace, and strict medication schedules required for senior companion animals. I customize my daily routine to mirror yours, ensuring your pet enjoys a seamless transition with plenty of interactive play, cozy naps, and affection. Pet care is the main focus of my daily routine because I work from home full-time. This flexibility allows me to provide constant supervision, frequent potty breaks every 2 to 3 hours, and interactive playtime throughout the day. My weekly schedule is highly consistent, meaning your dogs, cats, or puppies will enjoy a reliable routine with plenty of companionship and zero long periods spent alone. I create a safe, pet-proofed environment where your dogs, cats, or puppies are treated like family. They have full access to comfortable resting spots, fresh water, and supervised play. I follow your exact feeding schedules, crate routines, and potty windows to keep their days consistent and stress-free. In Your Home (Drop-Ins/Sitting): I respect your space while prioritizing your pet's comfort. During visits, I handle feeding, refreshing water bowls, cleaning litter boxes, and administering any required medications. I make sure to include plenty of quality playtime or belly rubs, and I always send you photo updates so you know they are safe and happy.

My day starts with energizing walks or play sessions to keep them active and engaged. Throughout the day, I make time for feeding, grooming, and plenty of attention to ensure they feel loved and comfortable. By balancing my day around their schedule, I ensure each pet receives consistent and dedicated care I follow the pet's usual routines, including feeding times, exercise, and any special care instructions provided by the owner. I ensure they have plenty of playtime, companionship, and rest in familiar or comforting spaces.

About: I’ve always had a love for animals since a young age growing up my parents never allowed me to own a pet, so I found a passion for caring for others pets ! I have worked for family and friends with watching and grooming their pets and I’ve also watched babies and toddlers since middle school which I now would be in my 2nd year of college. I currently am not employed, but I do side hustles such as selling on depop so sometimes I’ll ship packages off, I create clothes and accessories, and I babysit. Outside of that I have a lot of free time. I will care for your fur babies by listening to them while also following your requests/schedule throughly. I have no problem with more energetic animals taking them on a walk or just any personality finding a way to accommodate.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to giant breeds. I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I understand that every dog has their own needs. I treat pets like family and make it a priority to follow their normal feeding, potty, exercise, and sleep routines so they feel as comfortable as possible while away from home. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to provide plenty of affection, playtime, and updates so you can feel confident your dog is being well cared for. I’m home full-time during the week, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, attention, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I’m also available for boarding on weekends and can adjust my routine to help keep your dog as close to their normal schedule as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I have an unfenced yard, so dogs are always supervised and kept safely leashed while outside. Inside, I provide a calm and comfortable environment and follow each pet’s normal feeding, potty, exercise, and sleeping routine as closely as possible. I’m also happy to use a crate if your dog is crate trained and that is part of their usual routine.

Jessica was great with our two cats! She sent us thorough updates with plenty of photos, and our boys looked like they were getting spoiled. She even managed to give our aloof cat his inhaler, which he is not a fan of. I'd recommend Jessica for cat drop-ins highly!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Fairfax

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of September 2026, there are 3,100 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Fairfax. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

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

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

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