“Amanda was amazing! She spent time with our girls and was communicative and prompt. She was flexible and helped us modify our booking when we had to cut our trip short due to illness. We absolutely would book again with Amanda for future needs!”
“As always wonderful help from Miss Taylor, she took my booking very last minute I’m talking hours and she was so pleasant and understanding. She always takes such a good care of our boys, just highly recommend to anyone looking for super welcoming and caring pet sitter!”
About: I did have two cats of my own that I used to care for unfortunately they are not with me, but I still want to care for your own I’m currently available to take care of your cats and pets. I’m available all days of the week, including weekends to care for your own pet. I don’t have any pets of my own so I could care for your pets. I have a fenced backyard, a clean environment, and a lovely full of joy home.
About: I have been pet and house sitting since 2022. So far I have been pet sitting for friends and their friends, but I wanted to extend my services to the lovely people in my area. I grew up with a big dog as our family pet. Though he is no longer with us he was the perfect sassy addition to our family. Since I have started pet sitting I have had 4-legged clients of ALL sizes, we are talking teacup pup to 100+ lbs. I also have experience with all ages ranging from ~6months to senior and I understand their different needs and energy levels. I love to run and walk especially when a doggy friend tags along. I DO have experiment giving oral medications. I am an engineering student at GMU and my schedule can be a little funky compared to a typical 9-5. Please reach out to check my specific daily and long term availability! I take very great care for the safety of the animals that I watch over. I take special care when unleashing dogs to make sure that we are in a secure location (ex. Closed garage/door or fence). While on walks, even with friendly dogs, I try to stay away from others to prevent any potential incidents from happening. I also have experience with giving animals oral medication. I take close care to keep the medications on schedule and triple check that the medication was taken and not spit out (they can be sneaky sometimes).
“Samantha spent quality time with our fur-babbies each day. The updates and funny photos made it easier to be away from them. She did a great job caring for these quirky girls!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for them. I’ve regularly dog and cat sat for friends and neighbors, and I have two dogs of my own. I’ve also previously had a bunny, so I’m comfortable caring for different types of pets and making sure each one feels safe, loved, and comfortable! I currently have a flexible schedule while I look for my next job, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets! I already walk my own dogs twice a day, so your pup would get the same routine, exercise, and attention. I’m happy to keep their usual feeding and walking schedule, send regular updates and photos, and make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m a very responsible, patient, and attentive person, and I take pet safety seriously. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they’re in a clean, comfortable, and secure environment. I’m careful to follow each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions, and I always pay close attention to their behavior and needs. I want every pet to feel safe, happy, and loved while they’re in my care.
About: I’ve lived with dogs & cats (literally) my entire life! I’ve taken care of both young and senior pets and I have experience with administering medication orally and through injection as well! I’m a senior in high school, so I have school most weekdays from 9:00-2:10. I also work part time on occasion from 4-9:20 as well as every Sunday 11:30-4:00. I have a big schedule, but I can always find a way around it to take care of your pet 🥰❤️ I have a fenced yard and two german shepards and a domestic shorthair (who stays in my basement.) I have previous experience caring for pets in my home by keeping them in my room that can be locked from the outside (large dog care may be difficult but we can figure something out ☺️.) In your home, I will be sure to leave everything as it was. I will notify you of everything I do in your home. As an anxious person myself with multiple pets, your pets will be safe in my hands 😊
“Kerry is awesome! She took a booking with me last minute that I urgently needed and was so understanding of my situation. She instantly made friends with my cats upon getting to my home and made sure she had a full understanding of everything before I left. She sent tons of pictures and really nice, informative updates. Would 100% book with Kerry again and recommend her to anyone! Thanks Kerry from Menu, Cactus, and I (:”

About: Worked with farm animals when I was young and pet animals my whole life. Military veteran that has worked closely with professional animal handlers. I was inspired to pursue this as a career after leaving the Military. Currently being train to become a pet care expert with the hopes of one day becoming a trainer. Currently doing this full time servicing the Woodbridge and northern Virginia area working with my partner so that we have more coverage for our business. Ideally I’d like to keep things as normal and copacetic as possible. Relying ton established routines, routes, and times that are familiar for your pets.
About: My experience comes from years of being around and caring for pets belonging to family and close friends. I’ve helped with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I’m naturally patient, attentive, and nurturing so I definitely understand how important it is for your fur babies to feel loved, safe, and cared for while their favorite people are away. Pets are family too and I’ll treat yours with that same level of care and attention. I also have close family and friends connected to the military, so I understand how unpredictable and demanding military life can be. Long workdays and changing schedules can make having reliable pet care especially important. I want to be someone you can count on when life gets busy or plans change. Whether you’re fur baby needs a walk, playtime, feeding, companionship, or simply someone trustworthy to check in on them, I’m happy to help. I’m great at following instructions and paying attention to the little things that make each pet unique. My goal is to give every pet plenty of attention, affection, and quality care while making your time away easier and giving you complete peace of mind. 🐾 I recently moved to the area and have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. My main daily commitment is making sure my two kids get on and off the school bus safely and on time, which means I have flexibility throughout the day to provide walks, drop ins, playtime, and companionship. I treat every pet as an individual and take the time to learn their routine, personality, and specific needs. In your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep their space clean and comfortable, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, fresh food and water, and companionship. I’ll also provide regular updates so you know how your fur baby is doing while you’re away. For walks and drop ins, I focus on making each visit fun, safe, and engaging while keeping your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I understand that leaving your pets with someone new can be stressful, so my goal is to make the experience comfortable for both you and your fur babies and give you peace of mind knowing they’re being well cared for.
About: I think what sets me apart from other people is that I enjoy the cats and dogs company even if they don’t enjoy mine so I give the them a lot of attention and a lot of pets. I also like to make sure that they get an even amount of food because my cats and dog love to eat others food even after eating a lot. Pet care fits into my daily routine by giving my pets food and water in the morning, making sure they have time to exercise and play, and spending time with them throughout the day. Since I only go to school one day a week, I have more time to care for them, keep their environment clean, and give them the attention they need. I also make sure they are fed in the evening and have everything they need before I go to bed. I always give them the love and attention because that’s what a human needs also, I love giving pets, refilling the water bowl because it’s very cute seeing them drink water and I refill their kibble. I also love playing with them with the little toys and brushing their hair because it’s very calming.
About: My daughter's dream job is pet sitting so I am allowing her to be my assistant. We both LOVE all fury friends. I have had pets my whole life. Growing up in the country (NWPA), we had dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters, and ducks. I learned alot about basic care as well as successfully treating various health conditions holistically because vets were not well versed in small animal care where I grew up so my mom and I learned alot of homeopathy, herbal, and flower remedies supporting the health of our pets over the years. I can also offer reiki for calming pets that are hyper or in poor health. I was very active in rabbit and dog 4H as a kid and learned dog training at the age of 12. My darling 9yo daughter Denise is an aspiring pet sitter and we are both available to offer much love and care to your fur babies. I also love gardening and can look after plants too. :-) I am currently working part time from home with flexibility in my schedule so we can be available as needed for your convenience. We would love to offer drop in visits but eventually can offer boarding as well. We are available to check in on your fur babies, offer fresh food/water, dog walks, play breaks, administer meds, and can send picture updates via text.
About: I have taken care of dogs all of my life, but I have worked in a boarding / play-care facility for two years, and I have truly enjoyed taking care of all types of dogs ranging in many sizes and demeanors. I have experience in administrating medication as well as many pet behaviors. I currently work hybrid most days so I am available throughout the day other than 1-2 times a week. On weekends I have open availability. I have knowledge of administration of medication and I have had training in knowledge of pet safety. And I know how to take care of pets who may be more reactive.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Ridge
The process with Brenda was very smooth. She was flexible with our relatively last minute booking and the meet and greet went well. She is punctual and followed our exact routine. Most importantly, all 3 of my cats felt very comfortable around her. Will definitely be using her services again in the future!
Miss Hannah was absolutely amazing. Our boys absolutely adore her. She was super patient when I was running late for the key handover and was super understanding. We appreciate her working with our kitties, she is truly AMAZING and we couldn’t recommend her enough!!!! Book book book miss Hannah! Thank you SO SO much! ☺️😸😸🐾🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
Shavedra took great care of our kitties! She sent daily updates and pictures. We didn't realize we were low on dry food, but she let us know in time for us to order delivery. We highly recommend her and will be asking her to sit for us in the future. Thank you, Shavedra!
Brigette is awesome. She’s helped us out with our near senior, somewhat particular spaniel and way too energetic kitten a couple of times now. We come back and they’re tired (in a good way) and happy. We trust her in our home and with our critters. Will definitely use Brigette going forward.
Lohan did an amazing job taking care of Tracy and Lola! He stepped in last minute and went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for. He exceeded my expectations, was kind, dependable, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely book his services again the next time I need someone to care for my pets. Highly recommend!
She is a great pet sitter ! 😊 . She’s not just a sitter that sits around and watches your pet. She actually plays with them and loves them like they’re her own. I loved the pictures that she sends and she’s a very great communicator. ! Will be looking forward to booking her again

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.

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 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.
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.

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.
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.
