About: I have 13 years of experience, caring for dogs and cats. I owned and cared for my German Shepherd dog for a wonderful 13 years before she passed away. I love dogs of all sizes and I feel comfortable around all breeds. I am a former finance professional who left corporate and I am now retired early. I would love to walk your dog or take care of your pet. I am retired and my days are very open to take care of your pet. My main goal is to spend time with your pet and take them for a walks. I cannot have pets of my own because my husband is allergic to everything furry. I cannot care for pets in my own home, but I am happy to care for them in your home. I will play with your dog, take them for a walk, feed them, administer medication, and spend time with them. Most dogs love me and I am comfortable around any breed including German Shepherd, Doberman, Boxer, etc.
About: I currently help my daughter care for her dog, Paulo, and her three cats, Chocho, Frida, and Spooky. I walk Paulo at least twice a day and help with feeding, fresh water, medications, playtime, litter boxes, and their daily routines. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and will treat your pets with the same care and affection I give my family’s pets. I recently moved to the area and currently have a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. Pet care is already part of my everyday routine, and I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, litter box care, and other routines. I’m patient and attentive and will make sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“This is my second time booking with Jeana and she is a stellar sitter! She is always very communicative and when there was an issue where we needed to be more flexible on schedule, she was very accommodating. Mr. Beignet definitely enjoys the company and is always very happy to see her. Would definitely recommend Jeana to anyone!”
“Abel checked in on our cat, Boushy, while we were out of town. He was really easy to communicate with and took excellent care of our Boushy. He also shared very cute pictures with us and we could tell that our cat really liked him. Will absolutely be asking Abel to check in on Boushy again in the future! 😊”
“This is the second time I have used Robin and Ahmed—this time for overnight. I could not have been happier. My cats love them! They sent twice a day updates with pictures showing my boys up to their usual activities. The house was in perfect condition when I returned. Highly recommend them!”
“Olena was amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure my two cats were taken care of and that I would be coming home to a clean house. She was punctual and communicative, and made every part of the booking process easy. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”
“Betty is awesome - she really does use the full visit to spend time with our cat. It makes me feel so much better leaving town knowing she will not only feed him but also do her best to give him some enrichment and mental stimulation.”
About: After 20 years of personal pet ownership (cats and dogs), and full-time Federal employment in public safety, I have transitioned from over a decade of part-time professional pet care to full-time... and I wouldn't have it any other way. :-) Pet CPR and First Aid, Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) volunteer, and in progress with Rovers certification program. Dog walking and pet care is my 24/7. Typically, I have built in walks scheduled between 10AM-2PM Monday through Friday, however, this varies depending on holidays, school scheduling, etc. Care expectations are discussed and clearly laid out prior to booking service. The number one rule for my home is CALM. There are two rooms fully dedicated to pet care where the set up is modified as needed for each client. There is a dog friendly orange tabby cat in the home that has his own separate room and space and does not interact with pet sitting clients.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since the age of 15 and have always had a love for animals I will always make sure your furry friend is safe and in good hands. I work a night time job so I’m mostly available in the mornings and I am available sometimes at night if given some notice in advance. Caring for your pet is a big thing for me I follow instructions as the owner gives me and make sure they’re well exercised and cared for.
“Kennedy was so great! She was very communicative and sent lots of pics during each of her visits. She even gave Holly a little seasonal enrichment moment, which was absolutely adorable. We will absolutely be hiring her again!”
About: I’ve grown up around animals all my life! Taking good care of dogs and cats has become a second nature to me. Since I was 5 years old and I’ve been surrounded by animals and deeply care for all of them. I have prior experience working in pet grooming and helped friends and family look after their pets as well. I can do pet care any time of day, the end of august my availability will change because I start school as well as a part time job. I check up on pets often and make sure everything is ok with their health and mood. I love spending time with pets so being around them is very easy for me.
About: I have been training dogs for 7 years now and have self trained my service dog Max. I also have 4 years of vet assisting experience. I have lots of experience with puppies and kittens too! I currently work full time but local to Alexandria. I am off Tuesday’s, Friday’s, and Sundays. Available after 5 those remaining days during the week and after 4pm on Saturday. I have pet sat multiple pets in Virginia I have met wonderful families and pets that I have grown a bond with. I love and treat any animal I take care of like my own.
About: Caring and reliable dog walker with a passion for pets and a knack for building furry friendships. Dedicated to ensuring dogs get the exercise and attention they need for happy, healthy lives. As a full-time teacher, my afternoons and evenings are dedicated to providing loving, reliable pet care. After school, I focus on giving your pet the attention they need, whether it’s a leisurely walk, playtime, or some quiet companionship. I have a flexible schedule in the late afternoons and evenings, which allows me to give your pet quality time and care when they need it most—whether it's to burn off energy, get some extra cuddles, or enjoy a calming routine. Your pet’s needs always come first, and I ensure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. In my dog walking service, I prioritize the well-being and safety of pets both in their own homes and during walks. At a client's home, I ensure pets are comfortable and have everything they need before heading out. During walks, I maintain a watchful eye on their behavior and surroundings, ensuring they get the exercise they need while keeping them safe from potential hazards. I also provide water and treats as necessary, and always follow any specific instructions or routines provided by the pet owner to ensure consistency and comfort for their furry companions.
“Allison is fantastic! She provided so many photos and updates for every visit. My kitties were well taken care of. Recommend using Allison for in house visits for any pet. She is so sweet and genuinely cares for animals.”
“Jenny was awesome! She was so sweet and took care of our two cats:) She was communicative and sent great updates (with plenty of pictures) each time and was very reliable.”
About: I regularly watch my brothers dog and take him on walks. I also have watched multiple friends dogs throughout the years including walks, feedings, boarding. My schedule is open during typical work hours, so I’m available to do feedings and walks throughout the day. I don’t have my own pets but watch friends pets often. I have both boarded pets and stayed at clients homes. I follow typical instructions and routines as provided by the owners and send regular updates. Usually become best buddies by the end!

Claudia was amazing! This was our first time using Rover or any type of pet sitting service. At first I was slightly nervous as I knew our cats are somewhat shy and I didn’t exactly know what to expect. Claudia eased all my concerns! She was incredibly communicative leading up to her visits and our kitties loved her! Highly highly recommend and we won’t hesitate to book her again!
If you need a catsitter, make sure it's Jackie! She came highly recommended by another repeat client whom I know personally. I get anxious leaving my "velcro kitty" alone, but from the moment I met Jackie I knew my girl was in good hands. Jackie sent thoughtful updates with the sweetest photos. She went above and beyond in caring for my cat, and we're incredibly grateful! But don't just take my word, trust my cat's review. She crawled into Jackie's lap during her very first visit and parked there for each subsequent visit!
Abel checked in on our cat, Boushy, while we were out of town. He was really easy to communicate with and took excellent care of our Boushy. He also shared very cute pictures with us and we could tell that our cat really liked him. Will absolutely be asking Abel to check in on Boushy again in the future! 😊

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 .
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 .

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