About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring animal lover with years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I grew up with two dogs and have been consistently walking and caring for pets from middle school through college. I also worked at a doggy daycare, where I gained experience handling multiple dogs, maintaining routines, and making sure every pet felt safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, hardworking, and reliable, and I truly love spending time with animals. I have a very flexible schedule and can usually accommodate a variety of days and times throughout the week. I enjoy spending time with animals and make pet care a priority in my routine, whether that means feeding, playtime, walks, check-ins, or overnight care. I’m dependable, responsive, and committed to making sure your pets get plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to make them feel secure and cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, I’ll follow all routines and instructions closely and make sure they receive lots of attention, patience, and love.

About: I've taken care of pets since I was 6 years old. I love horses, snakes, wild life. I was a dog sitter! I help potty train doggies and teach them tricks because my brother dog is super smart and makes anything possible for learning. I want to share on other pets, I've always grew up around animals! I make my own hours for work and work when I want! I'm available when you need me ! I can be available for any scheduling you need. Please just message and I'll have a quick response I have dog crates. I have leashes, doggy treats or cat treats. I have a spacious space and hardwood floors so they can run around and dogs have their own sectional couch in back room to sleep, lay... I also provide doggy tv and walks at the parks near my house. I have 3 children ages 4,2,1 . They are not sacred of pets and love animals.

Perfect! Let Ainsley take care of your pets! She took care of my two kitties for a week. She did everything just right. I received daily pics of her playing with them. She was even able to make friends with my shy kitty. This was my first experience using rover.com, once again, I am pleased.

Ariane was dependable and came every day as expected while I was gone on vacation. She sent me updates and notes on my two cats and made me feel very comfortable with her being there to take care of them. She also sent plenty of pictures! In addition, she fed my fish and watered my plant. Would recommend her! Thank you, Ariane!

About: Here's a client-focused response designed to stand out: As a dedicated pet and house sitter, I provide more than just basic care—I treat every pet and home as if they were my own. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and stress-free in their familiar environment while giving owners complete peace of mind. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and other household pets of all ages, including energetic puppies and senior pets who require extra patience and attention. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, administering medications, maintaining routines, or providing companionship, I tailor my care to each pet's unique needs. In addition to pet care, I offer reliable house-sitting services such as mail collection, plant watering, package retrieval, and home security checks. What sets me apart is my dependability, attention to detail, and commitment to regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pets and home are safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I am a teacher that has pet sit off and on for years. Summer is wide open for your needs! When school's in, weekends, evenings, and holidays are all available! This response highlights your family environment while emphasizing safety and trust: Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, pets are welcomed into a loving family environment with a secure, fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play, exercise, and explore under supervision. We are a pet-loving household with two friendly family dogs and family cats, so I understand the importance of proper introductions, monitoring interactions, and ensuring every pet feels comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routines to reduce stress and help them feel at ease while their owners are away. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, administering medications, cleaning litter boxes, or simply providing companionship, I give each pet personalized attention based on their individual needs. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets and home are receiving reliable, attentive care. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing experience that allows pets to stay happy and owners to enjoy complete peace of mind.

Emma was awesome! She made sure to communicate every time she stopped by the house to feed and check on the pets. Our cat who doesn’t always like everyone was in love with her! So you know she has good energy. This was our first time hiring a pet sitter and Emma made sure we knew our pets were doing well and were comfortable and cared for. Will definitely be rebooking in the future.

Karissa was super sweet with my cat Ace. He is a diabetic and she was very organized with giving his insulin shots and ensuring he had all of his basic needs met. She also played with him and hung out with him and Ace really enjoyed her company! She went above and beyond to make sure that he was happy and healthy and I was really impressed!

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I’ve grown up with — and cared for — pets of all shapes and sizes, from dogs and cats to fish, birds, horses, rodents, and even reptiles. No matter who your furry (or scaly!) family member is, I’m excited to give them the same love and attention I give my own. Pet care is already a natural part of my day. I take care of my cat every morning and evening—making sure she has fresh water, the right amount of food, a clean litter box, and plenty of playtime. Since I’m already in a daily rhythm of caring for pets, adding walks or drop-ins fits easily and naturally into my routine. At home, my kitten is always the first one to greet me at the door, so I make sure she gets attention and reassurance right away. I keep her routine consistent—fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and lots of playtime and affection. When caring for a client’s pets, I’m very mindful of their established routines. I follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions exactly as given. I want every pet to feel comfortable and secure, so I do my best to maintain the rhythm they’re used to. Whether it’s my home or yours, my priority is making sure pets feel safe, understood, and well cared for.

Tia was an amazing sitter! She did a 30min drop-in for my energetic Labrador, Bo. She was more than willing to arrange a meet and greet beforehand and maintained communication both before and during the visit. Tia not only followed all of my instructions but also exceeded my expectations. She even played a game of fetch with Bo outdoors (which is his favorite game ever). She truly impressed me, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter. ?

About: I have 1 of my own dogs who lives with me. But I also have experience with a total of 4 dogs as my parents have 3. All are Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. I am comfortable with all medium and small size dogs. I do request that they are house trained. I like to take dogs on walks but if they are smaller it is okay if they are not perfect at walking on a leash. I can even help work with them on that. I currently work a normal day job during the week. But I work remote, that means that the dogs would not be alone at all during the day. They would have someone to care for them, take them out and feed them if necessary. Every day it is not raining, I do go on a 1 mile walk with my dog on my lunch so that they get good exercise. HOUSE SITTING: I can work remote from your house providing care all day. However, my dog Charlie would also have to come with me. If this is something that you do not feel comfortable with, I can offer drop in help instead. I have 1 of my own dogs (Charlie) who lives with me full time. My apartment is fully equipped for a dog to be here safely. I have a balcony where the dogs can spend time enjoying the fresh air. My dog gets along with all other dogs and is very friendly as he used to go to daycare with many other dogs. I have the ability to walk the dogs, get them fresh air and exercise. I also have dog toys and bones available for them to use. Dogs are allowed in all areas of my place. Including the couch, dog beds and human beds. Allowing them to be where they feel the most comfortable.

About: I have a long history of working with dogs and other animals. Your companion will get several walks per day on the trails, varying in length from 1 to 5 miles at a time depending on your dogs energy level and tolerance. Option of having me take your dog to a dog park for extra play time and socialization if you would like them to go. I currently bring my dog to the park on a daily basis. Grooming included if requested by owner including bathing, brushing and nail clipping. Current friendly dog in residence for your pup to play with as well, I have yet to meet a dog she doesn't get along with. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Lynchburg

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Lynchburg on Rover is $15.54 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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

As of July 2026, there are 148 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lynchburg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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.

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

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

  • 80% 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.

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.
