About: My kids (13-19) and I can offer a safe, happy home, companionship and plenty of play time to your furry friend(s) while you're away! Being semi-retired allows me to dedicate more time to caring for pets. I frequently assist friends and family with pet care when they travel. My life basically revolves around my 3 teenagers, volunteering and bike riding when possible. Your pet will always have company in our home, with plenty of walks and playtime. My children, especially my daughters, love and enjoy their companionship.

We're sure you know how hard it is to find the right person to take care of your pets, and when you do, you don't want to let the secret out. So, we selfishly don't want to leave this great review for Libby, but she deserves it too much not to post... We had to leave our dogs back-to-back twice for over a week each time, and Libby was amazing with our dogs. Usually when we leave our dogs even for one week, we come home and our big rescue has licked herself bald in several places and our wheaten is so depressed he won't come out of his crate. Whatever Libby does to take care of our pups, keeps them happy and healthy! Of course our dogs are excited when we come home, but more importantly, they are healthy, happy and well adjusted! Even after these back-to-back trips, our rescue still has all of her fur and her loving disposition, and our wheaten is as happy and hoppy as always. We cannot recommend Libby enough! She is so easy to work and coordinate with and wonderful with our dogs (we didn't even mention that our dogs present extra challenges, because they have to be kept separated at all times, or they will fight - and Libby handles that beautifully too)! She is reliable, loving and wonderful! We only hope you haven't booked her the next time we need help with our dogs!

About: I have experience and enjoy caring for pets of all kinds - exotic pets, cats and dogs alike! I have owned exotic pets as well as dogs from puppy age. As a personal trainer, I typically work with a split schedule. Clients in the AM and PM with ample time in my mid day and afternoon. I typically start my day early and could get walks in before the morning batch of clients. I typically return in the mid morning and don't leave again till my evening clients and return in the evening. Some weeks I may have long hours on Tuesday through Thursdays. I always make sure my bookings are aware of this and know my hours before confirming services! I am a highly active individual and would love to play fetch or any other of your pets favorite activities! If you pet is more lowkey, I also love a good snuggle and can just be there to keep them some loving company! I live close by a dog park as well and have a safe sidewalk-ed neighborhood full of animal lovers always out for walks as well.

Highly recommend! Rebecca was fantastic with Zoey. She took the time to send me a quick photo or two, gave her plenty of attention, and followed all our instructions perfectly. Zoey was happy and relaxed when we got back and we could tell she had a great time! We felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands!

About: My name is Laryssa and I am new on the sitter side of Rover. I am extremely reliable, caring and would treat your pets like my own while you are away! From experience, I know how hard it can be to leave your pets and will provide updates so you can ensure your fur babies are in good hands! A little about me I am a longtime dog owner and have had my Norwegian Elkhound mix for 10 years. She is now almost 12, I have experienced the puppy years, the energetic years, and all the little changes that come with caring for a dog as they get older. I also have experience with dogs from other family and friends that I would care for while they were away. I also currently have two tabby cats and I grew up with cats my whole life so I would be comfortable with both cats and dogs. I currently work from home full time so my schedule is flexible. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine and I will ensure to follow what is asked of me. I am available for dog walks and drop-in visits around the Leesburg area. Whether your dog needs a good walk, some playtime, food and water, a potty break, or simply someone to keep them company, I will make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. I can't wait to meet your pets and become someone you can count on! I currently work from home so I have a flexible schedule and would be willing to work around your needs! I have animals myself so I am used to breaking up my work day. Unfortunately I am unable to board animals with my dog since she gets jealous of me giving attention to someone outside of her. But I am available for drop ins and dog walks! Hoping to board in the future.

Tammy was absolutely wonderful with our two furbabies, Finn and Furb! 🐾😺😸 She took the time to really get to know them and made sure they were comfortable and happy. She was punctual, friendly, she played with them and genuinely cared for them like they were her own during her drop ins. We felt so at ease knowing they were in her hands. Tammy was also great at calming my fears in leaving them for a week for the first time. I feel like I’ve known Tammy all these years. She is so personable! We will definitely be booking with Tammy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter! ❤️

About: I've owned and cared for dogs since I was around9 9. I have a huge desire for caring for animals. I'm interested in meeting new dogs to care for. I have a pretty open schedule for taking care of pets. My preferred days for care is Sunday- Wednesday. Times that work for me are from 12pm to 10pm. Pet safety is a top priority. I am capable of following feeding schedules and any specific requests. I am unable to house dogs due to already owning two dogs that are getting old. I have no problem providing regular updates and photos if needed.

About: Insured and Bonded - Pets First Aid/CPR certified from Red Cross ** Boarding clients pls read** "- Due to some changes, I can no longer board at my Leesburg apartment, however I was able to find a place in South Riding, where I can continue boarding in... for added convenience, I can offer a drop off/pickup service for additional $10 - I board up to 2 dogs at a time, but if you'd like your dog to be the only dog boarded, there'll b additiona $20 per night " Animals have been part of my heart for as long as I can remember. Even while building my professional career, I always stayed connected to animals through volunteering with rescue organizations and shelters. Caring for them never felt like a task — it felt natural. Over the years, I’ve cared for friends’ pets and supported rescue animals of all personalities — shy, energetic, playful — and each one has deepened my commitment to creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. My home is cozy, peaceful, and structured to make pets feel secure and relaxed, I allow pets on bed and furniture, but definitely follow the pet parent instructions, if not allowed! I also volunteer at farms, so I have good experience in taking care of farm animals like goats, chickens and horses I have a flexible schedule and am committed to working around your needs to make sure your pets receive the same warmth and attention they’re used to at home. I'm currently doing pet care as full time job, so I'm available all week/anytime and I genuinely love going on walks, so your dog will get good exercise with me I'm available almost all the time, your pets will have my 100% focus on them, I also don't have any other pets or kids, so your pet will feel like the king/queen of the house :)

About: I have spent majority of my life caring for a wide range of animals from dogs and cats to ducks, rodents, and reptiles. I have one beagle who loves playing with others and we would love some company for our walks and adventures. I am acclimated to cats and dogs of all ages, I am used to giving medications (including allergy injections) and pets with food sensitivities. If you have a fur baby that needs some exercise or company, my beagle and I would love to meet them for either a casual stroll through a neighborhood, a trail walk through the woods, or even for short visits to dog parks followed by soapy baths. Let me know what your pet needs are and I am happy to accommodate. On weekdays, I am available 3-7:30 most afternoons. If I am going to your home and your home happens to be near my work place, I may also occasionally be able to pop in for a short visit 9:45-10:30. At my home: Your dog has options. I have a puppy proofed kitchen that has access to a dog door with a fenced in yard. This space is separated from the rest of my home via a doggy gate and is a wonderful space where I leave my pup to play during the day while I am at work. This space has continual access to water, dog beds, toys, and the fenced in yard. Additionally, if there is a fur friend that is in need of a more private secluded space, I also have 2 medium dog crates with soft blankets and chewies. The crates will limit your pups interactions and protect them while I am away from the household for work. When I am home, the dogs will be with me throughout my entire house, they will be brought on walks, fun outdoor adventures, played with, fed, pet, they can sleep in the bed or on the floors, and they can be bathed if necessary. We can even take car rides to go out on fun hikes if you are interested in your dog having access to opportunities like that (they are our favorite.) They will continually have a beagle playmate happy to have companionship. Cats will have a secluded room to stay in, as they are often more sensitive to new spaces, and they will get plenty of snuggles and affection each day in their own private room. At your home: I will arrive in the afternoons with my beagle to play with your pups and to go on walking adventures. I can follow whatever particular protocols you have in place for your dogs, their food/med routines, etc. We will play together and spend time outside on adventures. I can take your pup with me in my car to go on hikes or we can keep the visit completely local. For cats, my dog will not come with me and I will enter the home to address whatever needs your cat may have, whether it be cleaning litter boxes or giving cans of wet food.

About: I have plenty of experience working with senior dogs and reactive dogs, and I’m comfortable with drop-ins for feedings & playtime. There’s no greater joy in life than being able to connect with someone’s furry, absolutely adorable soulmate! As a cat owner and long time dog walker, I always make sure to prioritize your pet’s health and comfort with lots of patience, love, and pets / treats ♥️ On weekdays, I do work typical business hours, (9-5ish), but I am available in the early mornings before work as well as in the evenings. On the weekends, I am more available. If someone was in my home, I would want to make sure they prioritize my pet’s safety and my home’s integrity. When I am looking after your pet, I’m also making sure I am respecting your space while making sure your pet feels comfortable with me in theirs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Leesburg on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 9,983 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Leesburg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Leesburg 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 sitter’s 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 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!

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 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 doesn’t 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 Leesburg with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.

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.
