About: Count on me. I have cared for my two dogs and two cats over the years. Pets seem to easily like me, and I like them. I have one medium size dog of my own now, who’s six years old. I’m easy going, but firm when needed. When you’re traveling, your dear pups need extra love and attention, and I’ll be there for them. My full-time role in marketing dissolved, so I currently have great schedule flexibility. I do have a dog of my own to care for—my lovebug Bravo. I will come to your home to care for your pet. I will spend time getting to know them and addressing their needs and personality. Just let me know any special concerns and what works best with your special four-legged family member.
About: Thank you for visiting my profile. I've been around dogs for most of my life and know that pets are and important part of the family. It's my priority to make you comfortable about trusting me with your pet(s). I'm caring, dependable, energetic, and look forward to taking care of your family member! I keep my availability up to date on the calendar. I'm available for short or extended visits and walks in the evenings and on weekends. No breed preferences. I'm open to taking walks or going for a run on nearby trails or sidewalks depending on your dog's ability and/or energy level.
About: I have been house sitting for 25 years along with house cleaning. Since I have retired from cleaning houses I now have more time to house sit. I have always loved animals and they love me dearly. All the dogs and cats are always so loving and I love to spend that with them. I follow the instructions of the owner. I make sure that your fur babies take the medicine required and eat when they are suppose to. I also take the dogs for walk unless you just let them out back in the fenced back yard.
“Emily was so good with Titus! This was our first time booking a sitter and he loved her. Thank you Emily for taking such great care of him. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for years, both professionally and personally. My daughter and I share a deep bond with our rescue cat Luna, and together we’ve learned how to build trust, respect routines, and honor each animal’s personality. I bring that same dedication to every pet I meet, offering not just care, but companionship, safety, and a sense of home while you’re away. I work part-time, but I’m never alone in caring for pets, my daughter, who studies online, helps me throughout the day. While I’m at work, she watches over our furry friends, making sure they feel safe, entertained, and never alone. Together, we create a warm environment where your pet is always part of the family. I take care of pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable. I follow your pet’s routine carefully. Feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. My daughter helps me when needed, so your pet will always have company and attention. We treat every animal with love, patience, and respect, making sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since Middle School! In addition to having many family pets over the years, I have had the opportunity to care for a variety of animals and have had many regulars. I treat each pet as if it’s my own and I take pet care very seriously since I also have my own and understand the importance of the care provided. I have worked with dogs and cats of all ages and breeds. I have worked with many rescues, large breeds, and many anxiety-ridden dogs. I have administered meds and dealt with heartworm with my rescue. I have had experience w/many special needs & seniors as well. I am currently working full time. This schedule is Tuesday-Friday. Weekday evenings after 5pm are available and Sat, Sun, and Monday are all flexible time-wise I currently have my own dogs so I would not bring animals here. I will treat each client’s home as they prefer and I’m very adept at adapting to different routines and environments.
About: I have owned a variety of dogs throughout my entire life. In the past, I have owned and cared for dogs of all shapes and sizes, ranging from Dalmatians down to a 8 pound Frenchie. With all my past experience, I am excited to care for your pets of all ages, shapes, and sizes. I currently care for my mini best friend, aka my cat Oreo, and have been caring for her for the past 8 years. I have experience with all kinds of pets and am excited to be able to watch your sweet pets! I am (typically) home and finished with work on weekdays after 3:00pm and I am available most weekends at any time to watch your pets. I currently have an indoor cat and help take care of all her needs ranging from trimming her nails, playing with her, and keeping her litter box clean. In the past, I have owned many dogs and always make sure to put their needs first. Depending on what my dog needs, I can spend the day playing with them, walking them, or just cuddling on the couch.
“As always Brianna took great care of our boy Ari. He is needy and clingy and she gave him all the attention he could want on her visits! Will definitely book again with Brianna in the future”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 18. I have worked at several dog daycares; bathing, walking, playing, and nurturing dogs. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me through-out my years. I absolutely adore dogs, it's my passion. Weekends. Fully available, pet sitter options as well. Please feel free to text me about schedule options. I am more than happy to work with you. I have dogs that I feed every day, take on walks, play and sit with them. Sometimes we watch movies and cuddle. Depending on the service determines how many outings and personalizing to that pet and their needs.
About: I have five years of dog-sitting experience. I have worked with dogs of all sizes with different medical and dietary needs. I am also a dog walker for dogs up to 100 pounds. In my home, I have been responsible for bathing, grooming, and caring for my personal pets for over 13 years. I work part-time in the mornings, so I have plenty of time in the afternoon and evenings to walk and watch your pets. I am also available on weekends for whenever you need a weekend getaway! I will keep constant attention on your pet and follow your specific instructions on your pets needs regarding feeding, diet, medication, exercise, behavior, and training.
“Heather took exceptional care of our cat while we were on vacation for 2 weeks! She came every other day to replenish food/water, clean out the litter box, and replace towels on the floor since our cat is now peeing on the carpet. (She even did a laundry load of towels-going above and beyond!) She stayed at least 30 minutes and sent me several pictures each visit. I would highly recommend her to anyone and we will certainly use her again!”
“Nouf took great care of my senior dog and cat. She gave me peace of mind while my boyfriend and I were away. My cat ran out the door (because she’s crazy!) and she was able to quickly catch her and bring her back inside safely. Reliable, responsible, responsive, and gave detailed updates + lots of pictures! I would recommend her if you are looking for someone who can handle your furbabies!”
About: I have been pet-sitting since I was 10 years old. I have always loved animals with my whole heart. My family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to take care of, feed, walk, and bathe their pets while they are away. I am especially praised for the amount of time I spend hanging out with the pets. I like I hang out with them as much as I can and get in all the cuddles so they know they are safe with me and feel all of my love while their owners are away! This works with my schedules perfectly! I typically work 8 hour days, so mid day check ins, and evening care work perfectly for me since I am available to stay at the pets house with them! I spend a lot of time with the animals when I am there. I always allow cuddles and honestly it is my favorite part of the job. Coming back to a pet that is excited to see you is the best feeling in the world. I make sure the dogs get plenty of time outside, and long walks if the weather permits. I love playing with the animals. Cats or dogs! I love seeing the pets be comfortable with me and building that bond between the animals and myself!
“Kinsey was great! She took lots of pictures and left detailed notes every visit. She was super responsive and messaged me directly when Cleo ran out of medicine. I worried so much less knowing that she was taking good care of Cleo.”
“Florian is an amazing caretaker! I was a little worried because my pets have a specific routine and need time to build trust, but Florian fit right in. He took care of my family (one dog and two cats) and was extremely detail-oriented. He made sure he knew where everything was, from pet supplies to cleaning supplies, so I could be as hands-off as possible. My dog got plenty of playtime, and my cats got plenty of petting and attention. His communication and updates were on point throughout. I would definitely book with Florian again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Haymarket
Alyssa was amazing, cannot recommend her enough! She took extremely thoughtful notes during our meet and greet, always kept us informed with detailed messages and report cards, respected all our rules/instructions, and was quick to respond. Our dog absolutely loved her! Will definitely be rebooking.
Mariah was an unbelievable kitty sitter. I would say, the best I’ve seen. She was always prompt, and provided great report cards with pictures. She is truly a professional, and went beyond like bringing in packages. I will always try to book her before anyone else going forward. We really appreciated her taking care of Lily. Thank you so much Mariah.
Alexandra was amazing with our very nervous dog. She went above and beyond ensuring he felt comfortable and well taken care of. It was fantastic getting updates every drop in with how he was doing and pictures. I would recommend her whole heartedly for anyone with nervous or medically complex animals. I can’t stress enough how wonderful she was for our dog and us.
Nicole is amazing! With the government shutdown and all the issues with flights, our flight got canceled so we’re had to stay away for another night. Panicking I reached out to Nicole and she quickly reached back. She was able to stop by the house and check in on our parrot to make sure she has food and water for tomorrow. Thank you so much Nicole!!!!
Aimee is wonderful, she was very attentive to me and my pet. She took the time to make sure that I was comfortable before my first booking with her she was super close which was great, her kindness was ever present each time we interacted. I an excited that I found her and will book with her again!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Haymarket is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $34 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 12,259 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Haymarket. 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.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Haymarket. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
