About: I've always loved dogs, and they seem to love me. 🤗 I'm an experienced pet sitter, and I began my pet care jouney as a child, helping to take care of our family's dog. We had a mini schnauzer and later we got a pitt bull. 6 years ago, I adopted my own dog, Rosie, and she's my best friend. 🥰 She still struggles with anxiety due to her past, and I'm sensitive to that, making sure she is as comfortable and calm as possible. I have been pet sitting for 3 years now, and have had a variety of experiences with homes with 5 or 7 dogs, and others with 1 or 2. I’ve also administered medications. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible. But I do have a husband and a 6 year old daughter who’s schedules I need to coordinate with. I will follow any instructions provided, as you know your pet better than anyone, and take care of your home with the same respect I'd take care of my own.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Eustis
My absolute favorite pup sitter ever! We had a loss in the family and with almost no notice he reached out letting me know he could help. He also went above and beyond making sure each of my dogs got out door time, special attention, treats, their medication and fresh food and water. Genuinely just a wonderful human. Thank you for everything you do! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Paityn is a life saver. I had hired 2 dog walkers for my two dogs. When the 2nd person canceled last minute, Paityn saved the day. She agreed to walk both dogs separately as well as take care of my cat. My husband said both dogs were excited to see her each visit. I will definitely be using Paityn again.
Sydney did an outstanding job taking care of our two dogs while we were out of town for a week. She arranged a meet and greet before we left, which made me much more comfortable as a pet parent having met the person who would be caring for my fur babies in my absence. It also allowed my very tentative husky a chance to see her before her first official visit. She arrived on time and stayed the full duration every day, spending time with the dogs and sending me detailed updates and pictures every visit, relieving my stress over leaving them and allowing me to relax and actually enjoy the trip. One of our dogs was sick just before we left and on a prescription medicine and special diet. Sydney was flexible with the change and comfortable giving the meds as prescribed. She updated us on how the medications were going and how Whiskey was doing. She even went above and beyond without hesitation and brought the trash can in from the road for me and some packages that were delivered while we were gone. Sydney’s dedication and kindness towards our dogs made their week easier too. I highly recommend Sydney and will definitely request her care for our babies during future trips!
Luisa provided incredible care for my pup, Leila, during the Holiday season. She went above and beyond every visit; consistently kept me informed with thoughtful updates. Her dedication and reliability far exceeded my expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate sitter.

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Fort Eustis is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $23 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Fort Eustis 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 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.
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.

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.
