Matt was great with Gracie and Maggie. They seemed very happy and content in the pictures he shared daily. He had extra instructions for our Gracie and he did a wonderful job caring for her extra needs. Matt communicated with us every day to keep us updated. We will definitely use him again!

We were very happy with Meghan. She treated our pets (cat and dog) like her own. They were both very relaxed when we got back home. Also she left our home even better than before we left. Will definitely hire her again!

Anthony is unbelievable! He is the dog whisperer. Our dog Elvis loves him! We couldn’t be happier with the care and attention Anthony gave to him. He stayed in our home and took care of it like his own. We are so happy that we were blessed to find him.

Can’t thank Sandy enough for taking such good care of my pups while I was gone. I get really nervous about new people watching them but after I saw Sandy interact with them I could go on my trip without constantly worrying & that means so much! Definitely booking again :)

Misty did a great job watching our two golden retrievers in our home. The boys were calm within seconds of meeting her, showing their immediate trust. We had an enjoyable evening out knowing they were in good hands. We will definitely be using her services again and we highly recommend her.

She did an amazing job watching our dogs and cat! She was very kind, caring, and thorough, and our animals took to her right away. She met with us beforehand to go over everything, which made me feel very comfortable leaving them in her care. I really appreciated how detailed she was with her updates, especially letting me know when the animals had been fed and keeping me informed of anything that came up. There really weren’t any issues, but on the occasions when something did come up, I appreciated that she communicated it with me rather than leaving me wondering. She was absolutely lovely to work with, and I could tell she genuinely cared about our pets. I would definitely hire her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and dependable to care for their animals!

Teri took great and loving care of my dog for 12 days. She went on long walks and took him to a variety of dog parks every day which he loved. Teri is a great communicator and sent pictures every day. She took great care of my home as a house sitter as well. I have booked her again for dog & house sitting in the future as I was very happy with her dedication and care for my dog and home.

David was perfect for my family of 3 fur babies! His communication was very good and prompt! He was on time and babies were content and happy. It was so nice not having to pack them and move them to a sitter! Will definitely be calling on David again to care for my family of 3!

About: I provide reliable, flexible in‑home care with the calm, experienced touch of a pet parent who has been around all kinds of furry pets since childhood. My babies at home include a reclusive and sweet cat, an cute energetic Frenchie, a friendly fluffy Maine coon-mix and a problematic but loving pug-chihuahua mix. This wide variety of pet personalities at home, gives me the ability to deal with all sorts of cuddly companions. I'm currently unemployed so my schedule is wide open and I can visit most days of the week at any time. I will make sure to visit as often as you like! When I visit your pets I will make sure to give them as much attention as possible. Walk's, feeding, litter changes, playtime and lots of love. I do not currently offer take-home pet sitting though.

About: I’ve been a pet owner for many years, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for your pets when you can’t be there. Pets are part of the family, and I will always treat your dog with the same patience, attention, and care that I would want for my own. I currently have a flexible part-time schedule, which gives me plenty of availability to provide dependable dog walking and drop-in visits. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention while you’re away or busy. For dog walks, I’ll make sure your dog gets exercise, fresh air, attention, and time to explore while keeping their safety a priority. I’m comfortable following your instructions regarding walking routes, leash preferences, feeding schedules, and your dog’s individual needs. During drop-in visits, I can provide potty breaks, fresh food and water, playtime, companionship, and lots of love and attention. I’ll also make sure your pet is comfortable and everything is secure before I leave. I know leaving your pet in someone else’s care can be stressful, which is why communication and reliability are extremely important to me. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. Every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I look forward to getting to know yours! Whether your dog needs a good walk to burn off some energy or simply some company and attention while you’re away, my goal is to make their time with me safe, fun, and comfortable. 🐶❤️ I currently work part time so I have plenty of time outside of my work schedule to take care of fur babies! I don't have an exact schedule so I have the flexibility. I only offer drop in visits or home sitting. I will make sure they are in a safe environment at all times. Making sure the gates and/or doors are closed at all times so that the fur babies don't get out.

My wife and I booked Linda for a 5 night "overnight" service, and we have to say that we feel incredibly positive about her services. This was our first time booking with her since we'd been having a very difficult time finding an overnight sitter we could trust, and she ended up blowing us away with how wonderfully she took care of our dog, cat, and home while we were away. It was like she'd already known our fur babies for years, and that says so much considering our dog's high separation anxiety. And all the photos of our boys while we were away were wonderful!!! I would HIGHLY recommend Linda to anyone looking for an overnight sitter or even just to do drop ins.

About: I’ve been raised around dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for them in every stage — from playful puppies to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. Having supported my own dogs through their later years, I understand how important gentle, attentive care is. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Monday through Friday from 5:30 AM to 2:30 PM, which means I’m available for early morning visits before work and have my full afternoons and evenings open for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. Because I’m off mid-afternoon, your pet won’t be waiting all day for attention. I’m able to give them consistent, reliable care and quality time — whether that’s a calm check-in, an energetic walk, or simply extra cuddles to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I will always care for your pet the way you feel most comfortable, especially in your own home. I carefully follow any instructions you leave — from feeding routines and medications to favorite toys and bedtime habits — because I know how important consistency is for their comfort and your peace of mind. If they stay in my home, they’ll be welcomed into a calm, loving environment alongside my two pets. They’ll have access to a fully fenced backyard where they can safely explore and enjoy fresh air. I’m able to separate from my cat if needed to ensure everyone feels secure and comfortable. While I’m not able to separate from my dog, he is well-socialized and used to being around other animals. My goal is always to create a safe, warm space where your pet feels cared for, understood, and at home.

About: My many years of owning pets and working at a veterinarian facility has given me many different experiences with pets. My love for pets would be shown in the love and care I would provide for each any every pet I take care of. I currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 1 guinea pig, and 1 bearded dragon, with each one getting equal love and care. I would provide your pet with the same love and care that I give my own pets. If you choose me as your sitter or walker, know that I have the years of experience and understanding of different pets and know that each pet has its own personality. I look forward to getting to know each of your pets. I am currently doing online classes right now to better my self. I have more time then I use to, to help others that may not have as much time as they would like to help with their pets. I am unable to watch any pets at my personal home because of one of my dogs doesn’t like other pets. But I would take care of someone else’s home like it was my own with my own animals. If a fence is available we would play outside. If not we would walk around the neighborhood.

About: From dogs of all ages and sizes to cats, chickens, and even saltwater fish, I've provided reliable in-home pet care for many families over the years! While drop-ins are available, I prefer to stay at your home, as it offers an extra layer of comfort for your animals while their parents are away. I am an early riser, love going on walks, and have a flexible work schedule that lets me check in during the day. You can also count on plenty of picture updates! For overnight stays, I have a hybrid work schedule and am super flexible, checking in on everyone as needed throughout the day and staying in-home overnight. For drop-in visits, message me, and we'll create a custom experience for your pet's needs. In-home sitting requires trust between us, so I'll always ask to meet before an overnight stay so I can get to know you, your pet, and your home. I'll respect your home and take pride in creating a loving, safe environment for your pets while you're away.

FAQs for House Sitting - Leesburg

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Leesburg on Rover is $31.08 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,209 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Leesburg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Leesburg walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Leesburg maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

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 Leesburg 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!

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.

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 .

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Leesburg. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
