About: I have experience rescuing cats and dogs and administering medication. I’ve also done house sitting and pet sitting for several homes. I enjoy running and playing with dogs to keep them active and happy, and I can also help them stay calm when needed. I offer walks up to 1 hour and can safely handle up to 3 dogs at a time. I’m comfortable cleaning up after pets, changing diapers if needed, and giving medication. I work Mondays and Wednesday–Friday from 7 to 3, and Saturdays from 3 to 11pm. I’m free all day on Tuesdays and Sundays 😊 I adapt to each home and follow the owner’s preferences and routine for their pets. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for, whether that includes walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or keeping their space clean. I always adjust to each pet’s personality and needs.

About: I get a lot of joy from taking care of them and making them happy while getting to know their personality. I am comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes and energy levels! Animals are certainly a woman’s best friend! I am a current law student that will have class in the mornings and early afternoons most weekdays, but will be able to care for your pets any time outside of that! I would love to have a furry friend to walk or play with during study breaks and can’t wait to get to know your baby! My utmost priority in caring for your pets is ensuring they are as safe, comfortable and at ease as possible. Animals are so special and deserve the kindest treatment in all circumstances, even when they make a mistake. I will ask for specific preferences or instructions and follow them in regard to feeding, walking, play time, medicine, potty breaks and any form of crating. I want to help your pet as much as possible through the nerve-wracking time of being away from their owner!

About: What sets me apart is my blend of responsibility, energy, and empathy. As a former Division I athlete and current graduate student, I’ve learned how to manage time, stay calm under pressure, and give 100% to every commitment. I treat each pet like my own with patience, consistency, and care. I’m great with active dogs who need play and structure, but I’m also gentle and attentive with older pets who need a slower pace and extra comfort. Whether it’s sticking to a training routine or just making your dog feel safe while you’re away, I’m someone you and your pet can count on. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m already active, organized, and thrive on structure. As a grad student and former athlete, I plan my days carefully and always make time for what matters including giving pets the attention and exercise they need. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening playtime, I’m flexible and reliable. I genuinely enjoy being around animals, and spending time with them is a highlight of my day, not just a task on my list. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, familiar environment by following their routine closely whether it’s feeding schedules, walk times, or play preferences. I keep communication open with regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. I’m respectful of your space and keep everything clean and organized. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I make sure they have a safe, cozy, and supervised environment with plenty of attention, activity, and affection. In both settings, I prioritize the pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness above all.

About: I've cared for pets a majority of my life not only my own pets but between family, friends, and previous co-worker helping in anyway I can. I have 6 years experience training working dogs. I have training and experience in first aid with dogs. I can check on pets however frequently needed, I am also available for walks and play. I can always adjust my schedule if needed, but if I can't for some reason I will communicate that. I can either let your dogs out in your backyard or I can take them on walks to go to the bathroom. I will follow all instructions given to me.

About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember! Growing up with family pets and caring for my own dogs over the years has given me a lifelong appreciation for the special bond we share with our animals. I've also responsibly cared for other people's pets, both during the day and overnight, including dogs, cats, and even birds! Although I don't currently have pets of my own, that's actually one of the reasons I'm excited to join Rover. I'd love the opportunity to give your pets extra love, attention, and companionship while you're away. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I would treat yours with the same care, patience, and affection I'd want someone to give my own! I work for myself, which gives me a flexible schedule that doesn't follow a typical Monday–Friday, 9–5 routine. I'm happy to work with pet parents to find a schedule that fits their pets' needs and routines. I offer drop-in visits, dog walks, house sitting, and overnight stays in your home. Whether your fur baby needs a midday visit, some extra playtime, or company while you're away, I'd love to help make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for! I understand that inviting someone to care for your pets and into your home requires trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I'll respect your home, carefully follow your pet's feeding schedule and care instructions, and make sure their routines are maintained as closely as possible. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my priorities. I'm also happy to provide updates and photos during visits or stays so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family members are receiving attentive, loving care while you're away!

About: With 11 years of personal pet care experience, I understand that every animal has its own personality, routine, and needs. I’ve cared for dogs of different ages, including senior dogs who need extra patience, gentle handling, and attention. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. Whether it’s a relaxing walk, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I strive to make every visit comfortable, safe, and enjoyable. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, respectful of established routines, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in caring hands. I treat every pet with the same kindness and consideration I give my own. Pet care is already an important part of my everyday life, and I enjoy making time to care for animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate dog walks, drop-in visits, feeding routines, and quality time with pets throughout the week. I understand that every pet has its own schedule, so I do my best to work around their established routines. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, an afternoon visit, or some extra companionship, I’m happy to discuss arrangements that work for both of us. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications when applicable, and daily routines. I make sure doors and gates are secured, pets are supervised appropriately, and their environment remains clean and comfortable. I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, energy level, and individual needs. I believe communication is essential, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos throughout each visit. My goal is to give every pet a safe, positive experience while giving their owner peace of mind.

About: Hi, I’m Sandra! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for pets is something I love. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog is full of energy and ready for long walks and playtime, or your senior pet prefers a slower pace with extra patience and gentle care, I adapt to their individual needs. You can count on me to provide dependable care, regular updates, and plenty of love while you’re away. I’m a stay at home mom and have all the time in the world to spend with the pets in my care. I also enjoy gardening, baking, pottery, walks and spending time with my family. We have a doggie gate and big fenced backyard for your dog to run and play outside. Pets are welcome on the couch so we can all watch movies together. We don’t crate unless specifically requested by clients and we typically go on 2/3 walks a day.

About: I'm a huge animal lover. I'm very outgoing and love dogs! I grew up with four dogs (all different breeds), so I am very used to taking care of fur babies. I am very flexible and easy to work with. I am great with dogs of all sizes. I will walk the dogs as many times throughout the day as possible. I love interacting with dogs and taking them for runs. I love buying toys and playing various games with them. I love to snuggle with them and make them feel loved. I will take as good of care of them as I would my own fur babies. I hope we will get to play together! Pet care is part of my daily life—I naturally structure my routine around spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule, so fitting in walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins comes easily. Making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for is something I prioritize every day. In both my home and a client’s home, I care for pets as if they were my own. I stick to their normal routine, offer lots of love and attention, and make sure they always feel safe and comfortable. I keep their space clean, give fresh water, follow feeding instructions, and make time for play, cuddles, and bathroom breaks. I also send regular updates so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for.

“Abbi, was thorough and followed every instruction I asked her to do with my senior special needs pup. She was also extremely flexible, which we needed unexpectedly. She provided me an update and I knew my boy was being taken care of. With him being special needs I need someone to be attentive to every detail of his care, she was and she put my mind further at ease when she followed up with me without asking. We will use Abbi again.”

About: You can finally relax knowing your pet will be safe, treated like family and given all the love. Hi there! I’m a stay-at-home mom located in the Hilton area of Newport News. I’m active, reliable, and available from early mornings until late afternoon. I’ve cared for everything from a home full of 7 cats and 4 labradoodles (all at once!) to countless pets belonging to friends, family, and friends of friends. I have a 6 year old son with special needs who absolutely adores pets so if you’re looking for boarding, please make sure your pet is child-friendly. During the day however, he’s in school and I will be able to cover those who may not be small child friendly. I don’t mind hopping in the car to take your pup to the park or on a trail if they need more than just a quick lap around the block. I’m a big morning person who thrives on routine but, full disclosure, I avoid rush hour or late-night driving since my son is with me after 3:30 p.m. Monday–Friday. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in, or a place to stay while you’re away, I am here to help. Just drop me and line❤️ I’m available Mon-Fri from 5am-5pm for walks, parks, even just a home visit and car ride if your pet just needs some 1:1 during work hours. Weekends are limited so send me a message during the week to check availability. I have a large yard but it is not fenced. My son and I enjoy walking whenever we can around our neighborhood in Hilton. I have a pet and baby proof clean home with a gentle loving child. Cleanliness is of the utmost importance to me so you won’t have to worry about anyone making a mess and it not being cleaned up.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Jamestown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 986 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Jamestown. 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 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 Jamestown. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
