“ivy was great. She was very reliable and communicated with every visit. She sent lots of pictures which were very reassuring. Our kitty is a little standoffish, but he was coming out to greet Ivy when she came! Great first experience with Rover.”
“Sebrena was absolutely amazing! She popped in to take care of our dogs while I was gone on a work trip and they love her. Sebrena, thank you again for going the extra mile when we had issues with our door lock, and we'll definitely contact you for the next work trip!”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals—dogs, cats, and even foster pets who stayed with us until they found their forever homes. This lifelong experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to adapt to each pet’s unique personality. I’m especially comfortable with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra care and gentleness. What sets me apart is not just my love for animals, but my hands-on experience with fostering and helping pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in new environments. I recently moved to the area from Northern Virginia and I'm in college at Virginia Western Community College. I currently live at home with my parents in Goodview, VA. I have my own pet suite in our finished walk-out basement - equipped with a pet friendly couch, bed, open space, and direct access to the backyard. I'm open for pet boarding / doggy day care on weekends and school breaks, including Holidays. I can also drop in for care visits in the late afternoon and during some weekdays. I currently have two dogs of my own (a Goldendoodle and a Labradoodle), and they’re truly part of the family. At home, I make sure they get plenty of walks, outdoor playtime, and lots of attention. I always follow the same approach with pets I’m caring for—making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for just like my own. Since I have my own pet suite, we can keep the dogs entirely separate, without compromising care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I pay close attention to their needs and routines.
“Kaylyn is amazing. I had her come to my apartment because my dog has separation anxiety and Kaylyn, as always, was so loving and sweet and playful with my dog, Gigi. I would highly recommend her. I'm so happy I found a person I can trust to watch my dog kid.”
“Valerie was awesome, and very attentive to our fur babies. She went above and beyond to make sure they were taken care of, and that we were aware of anything concerning that came up!”
About: I have three fur babies, golden retriever x2, and a blue heeler mix. Having animals is such pure joy. The dogs run the home, I just live here! Dog hair and slobbery kisses … I wouldn’t want it any different. My fur babies are happy and very generous to other animals. We have fun here. So bring your dog over, let them jump on the couch, and play with my pups! I work part time, but have a very flexible schedule. I have two boys at home that would give your pups all the love they need. I have a small fenced in yard for your pups. We enjoy talking walks, and playing fetch. My fur babies are the sweetest things and will get along with your pups!
“We had a great experience with Heather! Our dog was well cared for, and we had peace of mind knowing that he was in such good hands. Dependable, caring, and easy to work with-we highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve had a pet all my life. I’ve worked professionally with dogs for the past 3 years. I have a cat of my own as well. I’ve worked at a dog boarding facility as well as a doggy daycare. Currently, I have an internship Thursday-Sunday, 5 hours each day. I’m available every evening/afternoon after my internship. I’m also available Monday-Wednesday at any time. :) I love spending time with furry friends, so I’m happy to fulfill whatever needs your pets may have! I love high energy walks and playing an intense game of fetch or tug of war, but I also love spending time with fur babies that may not be as energetic and may just want to relax or go on a slow paced stroll!
About: I grew up with cats and have helped care for friends and family's pets for overnights. I drive for animal rescues to help save animals at risk of euthanasia. Most of my recent experience is with puppies and adult dogs but feel confident I can help with most any pet. I am a huge animal lover and can't wait to meet you and your pets. I have varied availability to care for pets with walks, drop ins, and overnights. I have kept animals in my home for friends and family. I have also stayed with animals in their home. I can administer meds but not injections.
“Sharon was fantastic!! We are new to the area and needing to find someone to watch our furbabes while we were away. She answered all of my many questions and was so patient and kind. Our dogs loved her and were so spoiled when we got home!! We couldn't be happier and will 100% use her again! Highly recommend!!”
About: I take care of my neighbors dogs, my friends dogs, and dogs at my place of work, I technically have 6 dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I work at a doggy daycare part time, my hours typically range from 7-12:30 so any time after then I would be able to take care of your babies! I treat the dogs in my home with respect and gentleness that they deserve. I try to take them on walks regularly when i can.
About: Animals are my passion! I have experience with giving medication to animals, dealing with anxious animals, and other maintenance concerns regarding your furry friend(s). I will treat your pets and animals as if they were my own, so there is no need to look any further! :) I am currently going to school, but I am able to commute on days other than Monday and Wednesday during the fall 2025 semester. I would appreciate listing any medications that you animals may need and when those ought to be given to them. While I cannot provide my own home for your animals getaway, I would love to make your animals feel like they are not far from home while you're away. If you leave explicit instructions regarding what you would like me to do while in your residence, you can trust that they will be followed and respected.
“They were patient with us even though we forgot to give them the door code before they arrived, and they stayed longer than we booked to make sure everyone was happy and comfortable! Will definitely book again”
About: "Lifelong animal lover with a gentle touch and a reliable schedule. Whether it's a walk, a cuddle, or special care, your pet will be treated like family!" Pet care is a natural part of my day—I plan my schedule to give each pet the time, attention, and love they deserve. I have my own kitty at home as well. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keeping them comfortable and happy in their home. I make sure they’re fed, walked, played with, and loved—just like you would!
About: CPR certified, advanced first aid. Multiple years involved with training both basic obedience and herding. Capable of working on mobility or fitness programs for your furry friend. I am looking to assist you by taking your pup or pups for a dog walk late am to early afternoon. Usually available Tuesdays thru Thursdays. I will usually double leash on dog walks. I am very aware of my surroundings when walking dogs and have many years experience in caring for animals.
About: I love caring for dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I’m patient with dogs of all sizes and personalities and always follow feeding schedules, provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention so every dog feels at home. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week, including weekends. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I’m happy to work with different schedules and last-minute bookings whenever possible I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, I take dogs on regular walks for exercise, potty breaks, and fresh air. I also provide plenty of attention, playtime, and follow the pet’s normal feeding schedule and routines. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and at home while their owners are away.
“My cats really warmed up to Trina, and enjoyed each day that she came to take car of them. I really enjoyed all the pictures I received. She did great with the care she gave!”
About: I have taken care of pets (cats, dogs and birds) all my life. I have ample experience with dogs, including puppies…we had 10 rescue puppies at one point in time! I’m super patient and accommodating with our 4 legged friends as I have 3 full sized dogs and 2 cats myself. I have a full time job but am able to provide care in the evenings and weekends. I have a fenced dog lot and 1.5 acres to walk your fur baby (leashed) as well as access to a private country road. I have three full sized dogs and two cats in my own home. My home is large enough to separate pets as needed and to allow for ample play room if everyone gets along. I can let your pets out or take them for walks at your home as well.

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 Goodview 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.
