About: What sets me apart is the personalized care and attention I give to every pet. I treat each pet like family, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while youâre away. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, including energetic puppies that need patience and consistency, as well as senior pets that require extra attention, medication reminders, and gentle care. I focus on maintaining your petâs routine, providing regular updates, and creating a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. đžđ Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I make time each day for feeding, walks, playtime, and ensuring pets are safe, comfortable, and happy. I also provide plenty of attention, affection, and companionship while maintaining their regular routines. I provide loving and attentive care by following each petâs routine. In my home. I make sure pets are fed, have fresh water, get exercise and playtime, receive any needed medications, and have plenty of attention and companionship. I also keep their environment clean, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away.
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 am by no means a professional trainer but I understand dogâs need for clear commands and exercise 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).
About: I used to work for the pet sitter company for the last 5 years and working with many various of sized dogs including cats. Willing to take care of special needs pets. I also can cover your fish feeding, lizards, and ferrets if needed. Hit me up. We can plan a planning. Woof woof! Iâm currently self - employed part time. Iâm usually available on many days. Would like to walk early morning and midday when youâre going to work or far away. Can cover the same pet in evening if something happens suddenly. Unfortunately, I live in someoneâs place and have to follow his policies. No pets allowed in my home but good news I can take care of your pets in your sweet home.
âEmily did a great job taking care of our two cats when we were away. She was easy to communicate with and sent daily updates with pictures. We will definitely use her again in the near future!â

âMelissa watched my dog for 8 days, stopping in three times a day. She went above and beyond and really cared for him like her own. She's great and I'll be using her again soon!!â


âGrace was so wonderful at stopping by and taking care of our cat even with our last minute booking. I would gladly have her come back next time we need a sitter as well. 10/10â


About: I have been watching dogs since I was young and even fostered ( a few of them were foster fails ) I am a vet tech but currently taking a break to focus on me and my little one . I have experience with handing aggressive dogs , restraints , and general care , along with medical needs I am currently a stay at home mom. So my life revolves around my little one and your pup ; no matter the age theyâre ! Whatever you and your dogs needs are I will accommodate! Long walk, yummy treats , trip to the dog park. You name it ! I have no pets. Just a little one . I am a vet tech so Iâm highly trained with cats and dogs; and very alert to their needs ! I will provide walks, cuddles , all the good things !

About: Iâve taken taken care of my familyâs dog for the past 15 years- from baby to senior dog. Dogs are precious family members, with innocent hearts that deserve love and respect. I work an early schedule running my own residential cleaning business and Iâm usually available after 3 pm Monday - Fridays. Some days Iâm available even sooner! Iâve cared for my familyâs dog since 2011, bathing him, walking him, feeding him. Heâs precious to us! In my house-cleaning business, trust is essential when taking care of their belongings, and also when considering their fur-babiesâ needs during the cleanings. We clean their areas, fix up their toys, and treat them like just another family member, whoâs area we care for and respect.
âAfter the rover sitter we've been using for the past 6 years for deployed elsewhere we had to pick a new sitter. I was super nervous about our now elderly dog going to a new place, but I shouldn't have worried. Andrea was fantastic. Miss Dottie Jo loved being at her place with her dog, and since Andrea lives in our complex Dottie got to hang out at home twice a day while she took care of our cats as well. It only took two visits for our scaredy cat Sylvester to realize she was the wonderful food provider and came downstairs immediately with his brother when she came. Andrea sent us loads of photos of all three pests (I'm leaving that typo) and commented every time she visited the house or took Dottie out for a walk. Dottie now even takes me past her house at least once a week like she's tying to visit. She scooped the litter once or twice a day if needed and passed out kitty treats as well as lovings. I will happily use her again if we ever leave the house ever again.â

âCamila was great! We reached out last minute to set up a drop in visit for our golden retriever, Carson, and she was super quick to respond and set up a quick meet and greet later that same day. She took great care of our Carson, provided updates and pictures during their walk. We will definitely reach out to Camila next time we need a sitter!â


About: Iâve pet sit for many family members (mostly small dogs) and used to own a few dogs as well. Also just really love animals! Iâll be home for spring break in NOVA from 2/28-3/6 and will have too much free time! I will be able to focus on the animals and go to and from houses often. I have experience watching many different kinds of animals; dogs, cats, reptiles, small rodents. I donât have any pets in my home currently, have lots of walkable neighborhood, and furniture animals are allowed on if needed.
âKeianna was communicative, kind to our animals, asked all the right questions, and took great care of our cats while we were gone visiting family. We will definitely be contacting her in the future for any cat care we need!â

âMegan was wonderful with our pets! We have a dog that is a little anxious and Megan was calm and patient with her. We really appreciate her service and will definitely use her again!â

âMelissa took wonderful care of my two dogs and was reliable, communicative, and professional throughout the week while I was traveling. She even handled a few unexpected messes with kindness and without hesitation, which I truly appreciated. I came home to two happy dogs and would absolutely book Melissa again!â

âAna took great care of my pup! She sent lots of photos and videos making it clear he was in good hands and giving me peace of mind so I could enjoy the weekend away.â

âMary was great with drop in visits for our dogs! Communicated well when needed. The pups were happy when we got home, and in all of the pictures she sent while we were away. Will def book her again!â


About: Hello, Iâve been taking care of my dog as well as my familyâs and friendâs pets since I was 5, and I love all kinds of animals. I have just recently gotten out of the military and I will be having a lot of free time soon so I figured it would be the best time to take care of pets since they require a lot of attention. I will make sure your pet is properly walked and fed and played with for proper exercise daily, as well as applying any medicine needed.

Camila was great! She took wonderful care of Bucky, making sure he was fed, loved, and spoiled with treats. She was also very understanding when we had to cancel a visit, which we really appreciated. Sheâs kind, reliable, and clearly loves animals. I would happily recommend her!

Daniella did great with checking in on our dogs! They seemed to enjoy their walks with her and didn't have any issues. She left good notes about her visits and was easy to communicate with. We needed additional care for the week and she was willing and able to continue helping out, which was greatly appreciated! I would highly recommend Daniella and rebook her.

Andrew is an absolute dream dog walker! Heâs communicative, takes fantastic pics of our pups, and executed lots of complex instructions on short notice. He came to meet our pups before a week away and they love him. We are definitely going to request him again for future needs!

Sara was flexible in finding a drop in schedule that worked for us, great at communication and sent updates and the sweetest pictures of our dog while we were out of town. We will absolutely use her again if weâre in the area and will recommend to friends and neighbors!

Samantha is so Amazing !! I ended up having to go out of town last min and Samantha was able to help me out very quickly . She was so great with both my pups I can tell that they loved her. She sent me pictures every time she checked in on them and even gave me an update on how they both was doing. I will definitely be booking with Samantha again in the future.If I could give her 100 stars I would.

Mahiya is a superstar dog sitter, there are not enough stars to rate her. Our dogs are a part of her family as they are of ours. She creates an environment that meet the dogs needs and more. Sheâs always accommodating and very flexible. Her home is a second home for our dogs, it is not a sitterâs home.

Whether youâre at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lake Ridge stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitterâs needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Lake Ridge 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 Justiceâs 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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesnât 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.
To find sitters in Lake Ridge with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days youâd like them to care for your pet.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
