About: I have five cats and a dog currently and am always looking to play or help take care of a furry friend. I have previously worked in a daycare as well which helped me get a lot of experience in caretaking. I am not a permanent employee anywhere and have a flexible schedule so i’m able to work my plans around the needs of any pet. All work is either online or gig based so I am always available! I have the energy to keep up with hyper dogs but i also love the lazy dogs/ cats who just want me to pet them and hang out around them. whether your pet needs a workout or a nap session, i can keep up with it!

About: My parents still love telling the story of when they told me I was going to have a baby brother. I looked them straight in the face and said, “I don’t want a human, I want a puppy!” Safe to say not long after, I got my very first dog, Bella, when I was four years old. From that moment on, Bella was my best friend. We grew up together, and wherever I went, she was right beside me. She taught me what unconditional love, patience, and responsibility look like. After an incredible 15 years together, I had to say goodbye to my sweet girl, but the love she gave me is the reason I care so deeply about every pet I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. Whether it’s keeping up with an energetic puppy, sticking to a senior dog’s routine, or simply making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were part of my own family. Although I work full-time, pet care fits naturally into my routine. I make time before and after work for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention they deserve. On my days off, I have even more flexibility for longer visits, exercise, and quality time. I believe pets thrive on consistency, so I always make it a priority to stick to their normal routine and provide reliable, loving care while their owners are away. I believe every pet is happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I do my best to keep things as consistent as possible. Before caring for your pet, I’ll make sure I understand their schedule, feeding routine, exercise needs, medications (if any), favorite toys, and any quirks or preferences they have. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect. I’ll provide plenty of love, playtime, walks, potty breaks, fresh water, and attention while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. If your pet stays in my home, they’ll have a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they’ll receive lots of attention and affection. I always prioritize their safety, monitor them closely, and make sure they feel relaxed and at home. My goal is for every pet to feel loved, secure, and well cared for until they’re back with their family.

About: With 9 years of hands on experience caring for pets, I bring a flexible and intuitive approach to pet care that meets each pup where they are. Whether your dog needs a calm gentle companion, or a high-energy play, I adapt to their personality and needs. I have a little bit of experience with obedience training with puppies and can also care for senior dogs. I am currently only offering boarding, walks and drop-in visits but I am committed to making your dog feel safe, loved and right at home - even when you’re away! I am a recent graduate of UTC and just started working for Unum. I work from home most days but have to go into the office on Wednesdays and Thursdays! I’m available anytime that I’m not in the office as my at-home work hours are flexible. When caring for pets in your home, I first like to read the pets profile so I can see if there are any special instructions/needs that I need to know about. I offer a variety of services so how I care for your pet is based on what I am booked for. For walks, I like to find a safe/familiar place to walk them, like your neighborhood. I’ll usually walk them for the full amount of time and make sure they have water when we are finished. When dog sitting, I try to make sure I follow all instructions left by you, the owner. I usually make sure your pet has food, water, walks, and lots of cuddles/play time!

About: Hi! My name is Alyssa, and I’m 19 year old college student with years of experience owning and caring for dogs. I’ve grown up around dogs and have always been very involved in their daily care, including feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they feel safe and loved. I’m very active and truly enjoy long walks and playtime, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and attention. I also own a large dog myself, so I’m comfortable handling bigger breeds and understand the responsibility that comes with them. I absolutely love puppies and have the patience and energy needed to help them feel comfortable and cared for. While I don’t offer overnight stays, I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to follow any instructions you provide to keep your dog’s routine consistent. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities, and I’ll treat them as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! Pet care fits easily into my routine. I work part-time, so I have plenty of time to give your dog attention, play, and exercise. I do have classes on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, but I’m flexible and available the rest of the week to meet your pet’s needs. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. During visits, I make sure they’re fed on time, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, and receive lots of attention and affection. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they get the activity they need. I’m comfortable handling large dogs and energetic puppies, and I always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and your pet’s happiness while in my care.

About: I have taken care of many dogs since I was a sophomore in high school, graduated in 2019. I volunteered and then became a worker at a groomer near me. Loved my job, and have cared for many animals since. Currently do not have a job, so I have a free schedule and nothing but love to give to the fur babies, including cats of course. I am very respectful to others homes and belongings. I only want to care for the animals, very trustworthy. If staying at my home, I am sure to take them out every hour, hour in a half unless given specific details. They have their free roam, I also have a pretty decent sized screen in back porch that they can run around a little in.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 397 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lynchburg. 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 Lynchburg 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

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

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.

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.
