About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and ages since I was young. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. I’m available for pet care on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. During these days, I have dedicated time to focus fully on each pet’s needs, including feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I prioritize safety and follow all care instructions closely. I keep a clean, calm environment and always supervise pets. I’m comfortable with crates, routines, medications if needed, and I provide regular updates to pet parents for peace of mind.

We have a fenced backyard and plenty of toys, plus a fluffy carpet and couches where they’re welcome to lounge. My dog is very independent and likes his own space, so he won't bother yours.

About: Hi, I'm Alyssa! Dogs and cats have been part of my life for decades, and caring for them is my passion. I've pet sat for all kinds of personalities, from playful pups to cuddly cats, and I treat every pet like my own. Expect walks, snuggles, playtime, and regular updates so you can travel worry-free. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I'm currently working part time, so my schedule is flexible and I'm home for much of the day. That means I can stick to your pet's normal feeding, walk, and play schedule, give them plenty of attention, and be available for last-minute or extended stays. Your pet won't be left alone for long stretches with me. In my home, pets get a safe, comfortable space with their own bed, plenty of playtime, regular walks, and lots of attention. I follow your pet's feeding, medication, and bedtime routines so they stay comfortable and feel at ease. In your home, I keep your pet's routine as close to normal as possible, with feedings, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles on their usual schedule. I also bring in mail, tidy up after your pet, and send you photo and text updates throughout the stay.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, from working breeds on the farm to small companion dogs, cats, and fish. I’ve pet sat for family, rescued animals, and learned that every pet has their own personality and needs. As a rescue dog mom myself, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I treat every animal in my care like family, whether they need playtime, extra attention, or simply a little patience and companionship. I have a very flexible schedule. Whether overnights or dropping by, Let me know what time or day you need me and I will be there. It all depends on the animals personality, and needs. I will do whatever the instructions or recommendations are with a personal touch of a whole lot of love.
About: I’ve grown up with animals in the house my whole life! Both dogs and cats! I love walking my moms dog max, he’s the perfect amount of energetic and laid back all in one! Pet sitting I’ve been doing for awhile too, usually I’ll throw in a walk everyday, play a little, give them lots of love! Animals have always loved me, I’m very laid back, athletic, caring, and affectionate when it comes to the cute fur balls out there. I’m assertive when it comes to commands and dogs have always listened to me... cats on the other hand, you know, they have a mind of their own haha. I would love to be your sitter/ dog walker any day of the week! - Abbie

“Heidi did drop in visits for my dog while I was away for an extended weekend trip. She was very good with Chance (my dog) and kept me updated! Chance had a few accidents and Heidi was extremely patient and even threw his bedding in the wash for me. Would recommend her to anyone, especially someone with a senior dog!”

About: Hi, I'm Ashley! Animals have been a lifelong passion of mine. I have worked in veterinary medicine for the past 13 years, giving me extensive experience caring for pets of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Growing up with animals and spending my career in veterinary care has helped me develop a strong understanding of pet health, behavior, and overall well-being. In addition to my professional experience, I have been providing pet-sitting services for approximately 10 years. Whether your pet needs daily care, companionship, exercise, medication administration, or extra attention while you're away, I am committed to providing safe, loving, and reliable care. At home, I have a 1 year old Staffordshire Terrier, a 6 year old domestic longhair cat, and a 21 year old Eclectus parrot. Caring for a variety of species has given me experience with different temperaments, needs, and routines. I understand that every pet is unique, and I strive to make each animal feel comfortable, happy, and loved while their family is away. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry, feathered, or four-legged family members are receiving the highest quality care. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾 I work a full-time job however I have availability in the morning and in the afternoon for walks and feeding. Weekends I am available. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to keep them happy and comfortable. I follow all instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and household preferences. I provide companionship, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, and any other care your pet needs. I respect your home as if it were my own and provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can feel confident your pet is receiving excellent care while you're away. My veterinary background allows me to confidently care for pets with special medical needs and monitor for any health concerns.
“Rasha took great care of our pets as usual. She’s so responsive and always lets us know how our pets are doing while we’re away. Our dog gets so excited when she sees Rasha, so I know that she gives extra care and attention.”

“This was my first experience using Rover and Kelsey put my mind completely at ease. She was very attentive and communicative and sent lots of picture/video updates while I was away. I know Kiwi was well cared for!”

About: My whole life we had cats and dogs. I have house sat for neighbors and friends with pets since I was ten years old. I currently own a rabbit. I have also cared for all kinds of rodents, fish, and reptiles. I have trained puppies and kittens and a bunny. I also cared for my older dachshund and gave him shots and necessary medications. I work part time teaching yoga throughout the week and have lots of availability. I only have custody of my kids every other week making my week without them a great time for extra hours and house sitting. I keep pets from being hungry, thirsty, or bored. I keep pets nicely groomed and their areas and things nicely cleaned. I offer direct focus and affection. I can walk or run with dogs. I love doing yoga on the floor and watching cats or my rabbit climb all over me and get affection.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was 18 years old. My family adopted a new born puppy while I was in college and he is our whole world. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to check in on their pets, feed them, walk them, and spend quality time playing and keeping them comfortable while they’re away. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, including energetic puppies and older dogs that need extra patience and attention. I always focus on making pets feel safe, cared for, and relaxed in their own environment. I’m also new to the Ashburn area and would love to spend some of my free time getting to know the neighborhood while caring for local dogs. Spending time with pets is something I genuinely enjoy, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I work fully remote and am home all day, so pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I take breaks between work tasks to go on walks, work along side with pups and make sure they’re comfortable and happy. It’s easy for me to maintain a consistent schedule and give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get potty breaks and walks, and receive plenty of attention and playtime. I also pay close attention to their behavior and well-being and keep the home tidy and secure while I’m there. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, safe environment with regular feeding, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. I maintain consistency with the pet’s normal routine and ensure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owner is away.
“Cornell did such a wonderful job with my dog Biggie, he’s a year and a half old and has lots of energy! He went on walks and got to play with other dogs! I will definitely hire Cornell again and highly recommend him! He even came for a meet and greet before our scheduled visits, put my nerves at ease! Wonderful experience!!”

About: I spent twelve years caring for my German Shepherd, Tyson, who taught me the importance of patience, trust, & routine. Alongside him, I have cared for doggies of all breeds & sizes for over fifteen years. Friends & family have relied on me for walking, feeding, companionship, & staying with them for days at a time. I'm especially comfortable with large & strong breeds. I'm calm, attentive, & deeply respectful of each dog's unique personality- my goal is always for your pet to feel safe & loved while you're away! I'm happy to send photo updates so you can feel at ease as well! I will also care for your kitties! Hi! I’m Jade! I recently moved back to my hometown after spending the last five years living in Colorado, and I’m taking this season to slow down a little, spend time with family, and enjoy being back home. I’ve had a bit of a colorful career path! I’ve spent years as a private nanny and household manager, worked in property management, attended school for Interior Design, and now work in management and social media marketing. Through all of it, I’ve always loved work that involves caring for people, creating beautiful spaces, and making life a little easier for others. Outside of work, I’m a creative and an adventurer at heart. I love acrylic painting, interior design, hiking, cooking homemade recipes, road trips, and traveling to new places. Give me a beautiful trail, a little town I’ve never explored, a paintbrush, or something new to cook and I’m happy. I also had a dog of my own who I had to say goodbye to a few years ago, and I’ve really missed having that companionship in my everyday life. My current work gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day, with especially open availability on Sundays and Mondays. I’m happy to follow whatever routine makes your pet happiest—whether that’s long walks and adventures, backyard playtime, or lots of couch snuggles. Most importantly, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your little family member is with someone who will genuinely love and care for them. I take them to the dog park, long walks, roaming around in fenced in yards, & lots of snuggles. Whatever you are comfortable with and whatever your dog's typical routine is- I will make sure they are fulfilled.

Reagan was amazing with Pepper! 💕 She was always punctual, responsible, and so caring. Pepper absolutely loved her! 🐶❤️ I’m so glad we met her, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets. Thank you so much for everything, Reagan! You’re the best!

Nicole was amazing with our 2 dogs and kitty. We were on a 2 week international vacation and I really appreciated her detailed check-in notes and photos. We have one dog who is skittish and Nicole came over for a meet and greet and a practice visit before we left just to make sure our dog would be comfortable and our dog warmed up to her on the first meet and greet! She kept everything tidy, used up our treats (which I hoped she would with our spoiled girls!) and everyone seemed happy to see us but definitely not lonely. We will try to use her for every trip from here on out and highly recommend for pet drop ins and dog walking!

Lea was great! She was available for mid-day drop-in visits for our 2 cockapoos while I was out of town and my husband had to work while I was gone. She left notes everyday for my husband letting us know how her visits with Oliver and Penny went. Very helpful! I definitely will call on Lea again when I have to go out of town again. Thanks so much, Lea!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Hamilton is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $28 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.
As of October 2026, there are 5,770 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Hamilton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Hamilton 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 .
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 , 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 .
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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
