“Samantha took such good care of my babies while I was away on a trip. She is playful, caring, and truly attentive. She sent us pictures every day and communicated everything in great detail. When one of my dogs started showing signs of ear irritation, she noticed it right away and acted quickly her judgment made us feel completely at ease. We have three dogs, and she did an amazing job with all of them. Highly recommend her!”
“Cindy was great with Zoey! She’s very communicative, sent updates and photos throughout their visit. I highly recommended using Cindy’s services, I know I’ll be a repeat customer the next time I head out of town!”
“While I didn’t actually get to meet Edmond and Nafis, they were very easy and pleasant to work with. They were also accommodating when my trip got unexpectedly extended. I got detailed summaries of each visit and lots of pictures which always puts my mind at ease! I will definitely be booking them again in the future.”
“Amanda was amazing! We needed a last minute check in on our rowdy dogs and she helped us out without complaint. They had been couped up all day and we're probably extra wild but she took great care of them and communicated with us along the way. Thank you, Amanda!”
“John dropped in to check on my cat while I was away from him for the first time. He was very diligent about following instructions, wrote up excellent notes on the visit, and was good about communicating with me. I was comfortable that my cat was in good hands!”
“Daniel was responsive, professional, and great with our dog who can be somewhat shy. He braved the triple digit temperatures to ensure she was getting out for bathroom breaks. Highly recommend!”
“Orianne provided care for my cat for the first time last week while I was out of town. I appreciated that she responded to my request sort of last minute. She was on-time and provided all the services I requested for each visit. She immediately reported an issue when it happened and it was quickly resolved. I would highly recommend Orianne for pet care.”
“Hannah took wonderful care of our medium-sized dog over the Fourth of July weekend. She was flexible, communicative, and proactive throughout the stay, especially when helping us monitor how our dog was handling the heat and the fireworks. When our return flights were unexpectedly canceled, she didn’t hesitate to extend the booking, which was a big help and peace of mind. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Hannah again and highly recommend her!”
“Brittany was amazing with my nearly three month old puppy, Ruby! She kept Ruby busy with a walk and playing with all of Ruby’s toys, and by the end of the visit, Ruby was all tired out (which was the goal)! I can’t thank Brittany enough and will certainly be using her again!”
“Megan is our go-to sitter for dropping in on our cat Ivy. She is very attentive with Ivy and often stays longer than she is booked for. Ivy does not like many people and she loves Megan. We travel a lot and it gives us peace of mind when Megan is dropping in—she shares lots of pictures and detailed descriptions every day. Thank you Megan!”
“My cat Hannah was well taken care of and in good hands while I was away! Lisa gave great drop-in visits and left Rover cards to keep me updated. Thanks for a reliable service!”
“Ann was thorough and shared thoughtful updates during each of her visits with my kitty. She clearly loves animals which made me feel confident that Max was well cared for. Thanks Ann!”
“Spencer & Julia took great care of my cat and provided a ton of photos during their time with him! They offered plenty of pets, treats, and cuddles and gave me peace of mind while I was on vacation!”

Ajia did a phenomenal job taking care of our two cats, and kept us well-informed throughout. She was considerate, making sure she understood any specific needs, as well as thorough and diligent. Just as importantly, our cats looked forward to seeing her arrive! We would recommend Ajia to anyone.
Erin was great. I had Erin come by twice a day to drop-in on my cats. My cats are shy and Erin was able to bond with them even though they are shy. She fed, cleaned the litter boxes and played with them. She provided good updates and shared plenty of photos. Thanks, Erin
Rachel was amazing! Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! We booked her last minute after our original cat sitter had cancelled on us. She was friendly, kind and sweet. Her energy was exactly what the cats needed while we were away. Our male cat is not always ready to warm up to new people but loved Rachel. Thank you Rachel for making our fur babies comfortable while we were away! We will be booking again 🤗
Sarah was absolutely wonderful with our cat. She is reliable, dependable, and clearly has a natural way with animals—our cat connected with her right away. She kept us very well informed, sending thoughtful, detailed updates and a photo so we knew exactly how our cat was doing. She fed her, played with her, and made sure everything was clean and tidy. She was also always very responsive. We felt completely comfortable knowing our cat was being so well cared for. We would happily book Sarah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter.
This was our first time using Isabella's services, and she did a wonderful job taking care of our senior cat while we were away! We really appreciate her updates, especially letting us know that he was taking his daily medications, and of course the great photos too. She was quick to respond and really nice when we met her for the meet and greet. We would happily book her services again and highly recommend her.

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Fort Myer on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 Fort Myer 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fort Myer. 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.
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.
