About: Hi, I’m Abby! 🐾 I’ve cared for animals through 4-H and pet sitting alongside my mom, and I’m now starting my own pet care business. I love all animals—furry, scaly, and feathery! From cats and dogs to birds, reptiles, and small animals, I provide dependable, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’ll treat your animals like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away! Pet care has always been a huge part of my life! 🐾 After working full-time at a dog kennel, I decided to follow my passion and start my own pet care business. Now, I’m able to make caring for animals a part of my everyday life! My days and weeks are filled with caring for pets, giving them love and attention, keeping up with their routines, and making sure they feel happy and comfortable while their families are away. I love that my work allows me to meet new animals and build special bonds with each one. 💕 I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I would my own! 🏡💕 I’m happy to bring in mail, keep things tidy, follow any house routines, and make sure everything is safe and secure. I don’t mind sleeping over and staying with your pets, especially if they’re more comfortable having someone around. My goal is to leave your home just as I found it while making sure your pets feel loved, comfortable, and cared for! 🐾
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my whole life. My babies are lifers. Your animal is my number one priority. I prefer animals over humans any day I quit my job to walk dogs full time. I’m always available if you need me. Your babies are my babies. I’d prefer dogs over humans I have a fenced in yard and no one can escape. I abide by what the client asks for in their and my own home. I walk, play with your dog if toys are presented
“This was our first time using Rover and we were a little apprehensive. But Jared came and met our dogs before staying and made us feel at ease. He sent us updates and did everything he said he would. We had a great experience and will be asking him to come back again!”
“Victoria arrived promptly and gave us continuous updates and pictures during her sit with Dexter. We would highly recommend Victoria to any other pet parents. We have already booked her for another visit!”
About: I have been taking care of my neighbors pets for years. Since then, I have worked at a doggy day care and have experience working with dogs of all sizes and ages. I love animals with all of my heart and treat every dog like they are my own. My previous job at the day care allowed me to regulate feeding schedules, administer medicine within food and work with the dogs one-on-one in interacting with them during playtime and cleaning when they boarded overnight. I also had the responsibility of bathing and trimming nails, however hair cuts were not a service we provided. I am currently an educator in the South Jersey area. I am open to start booking in advance and am flexible with times in afternoon and weekends. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I work full time during the week but please reach out, there are days I work from home and I am willing to see if we can work something out. Atlantic and Cape May County clients preferred due to commute and location. We just moved into a house and we’re able to provide your dog with a fenced in backyard to run around and play with our Pitsky, Palmer. Currently working a school schedule that allows me to stop by your home in the afternoon and evenings for feeding or walks. Weekend are very open for me as well. I have a husky/pitbull of my own, so I am no stranger to high energy furry friends. If you have a routine, I am the one to follow it step by step. You tell me what works for you, and I will ensure it happens.
“Katie connected really well with our skittish little pup Gigi when she took care of her and Presley overnight on short notice. Katie is personable, trustworthy, and all around down to earth and the kind of person you can trust to take care of your home and fur babies. Thanks Katie! We look forward to seeing you again in the future.”
About: Lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’ve also worked extensively with equines, so I’m comfortable handling animals of all temperaments and energy levels. I’m dedicated to keeping your furry friend happy, safe, and well exercised during every walk or visit :) I'm currently working part time so I'll have plenty of time for your pups! I am early riser but also don't mind late hours I provide loving and attentive care for pets in the comfort of your own home. I’ll make sure your furry friend gets plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime while following your routine and any special instructions. From feeding and walks to cuddles and companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I want you to have a good peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I am an animal lover and would love to help take care of your furry, feathered, and scaled friends! I have 3 cats and since I was born, I have always had at least one cat and fish. I also love dogs and have experience with farm animals, too. I can help with feedings, waste clean-up, walking, play time, brushing, and whatever else you may need. I am also happy to take photos, send you text updates, or do a phone call/video chat with you during the service so I can keep you informed with any updates and to put your mind at ease (I know how stressful it can be when you've just met your pet sitter and you're away on vacation, missing your babies- I've been there!). Please feel free reach out with any questions or if you'd like to schedule a phone or in-person interview. I currently work part-time as a tour guide and do the occasional side gig in the pet care/housekeeping field. My schedule is pretty flexible, and I can make early morning and late afternoon and evening visits. Certain days I am available any time of day, as I am only working part-time and not every day. I always respect the client's house rules and put pet safety first. I can assist with feedings, walking dogs/letting them out in the yard, waste clean-up, brushing, and playtime/keeping pets' company.
“Shannon has provided extra care for our two dogs. She is caring and goes above and beyond to ensure the needs of our dogs, especially our German Shepherd who suffers from epilepsy and requires not only medicine but extra love and attention. We will definitely use Shannon again for all our future house sitting needs. I can't recommend her enough, she is absolutely the best!”
“Andrea was wonderful as a sitter for my two pups, Rex and ziti. She sent photos and communicated every day with updates and any questions she had. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Jillian went above and beyond for our dogs during her housesitting visit. She sends tons of photos, spends lots of time with the dogs during overnights, and goes out of her way to make sure they have plenty of treats. We all adore Jillian!”
“Felicia is amazing! She has a heart of gold and took loving care of our 2 pups and 7 parakeets for 7 days and nights. They all loved her. The house was clean and orderly. She went above and beyond. We highly recommend Felicia for all of your pet care needs. We will most definitely hire Felicia again!🐾”
About: I've grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and have spent the last 5 years informally caring for pets belonging to self and friends. I don't have any pets at the moment and I would love care for yours. I know how to read an animal's body language, stick to their routine, and give them the attention they need, whether that's a long walk, playtime, or just quiet company on the couch. I treat every pet like my own: consistent feeding schedules, plenty of exercise, and lots of affection. I'm equally comfortable with dogs and cats and happy to accommodate specific care instructions, medications, or quirks your pet may have. I'm mostly flexible right now since I'm not working full-time, so I have plenty of time to give your pets attention throughout the day and evening. I can accommodate daily walks, drop-ins, or boarding on short notice, and I'm happy to work around your pet's usual routine, feeding times, walk schedules, and any specific habits they're used to I live in an apartment in Center City Philadelphia, so most of my care happens through walks and outdoor time rather than a private yard, and I'm comfortable working in your home as well. Wherever I'm caring for your pet, I keep a close eye on them at all times, follow feeding and medication instructions exactly, and make sure doors and leashes are secure so there's no risk of an escape.
“Did a last minute trip to meet my family. Danielle answered back quickly we met the next day, she met my dogs and did an awesome job on watching them overnight. She genuinely cares about your pet. Thanks Again.”
About: I’ve taken care of all different types of dogs and different animals for as far back as I can remember as a little girl. I’ve always had a deep and intense love for furry friends. I’m currently available at all times for the time being because I am not employed as of right now. Last minutes are not an issue ! I don’t have a fence in my yard for the time being. I had an invisible one but my dog unfortunately passed away and we got it removed after. I currently don’t have any animals

FAQs for House Sitting - Leesburg
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 546 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 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.
