“We are so lucky to have found Nicole! She took great care of our 2 dogs, sending us updates and pictures. Our house was as cleas as we left it! Already booked her for our next trip!”
“Lindsey is amazing!! She is so nice and took great care of our dog. She sent so many photo and video updates and our dog looked happy! She sent updates about bathroom breaks and food too. I also appreciate that she has experience with epileptic dogs so we felt comfortable leaving ours in her care. We already have her booked for another round of overnight sittings!!”
About: *One client at a time. *20+ years of experience taking care of fur babies and providing basic grooming needs. *Home all day and can provide constant attention. *Daily updates and pictures will be provided. (taking pictures of babies and fur babies is a hobby of mine) *Walks multiple times per day (weather permitting). *can provide basic grooming such as brushing, teeth cleaning. I am currently a stay at home mom and my human baby is at school full time now. I have a small havanese 11lbs names Ellie who keeps me company. My little family loves having and fostering fur babies. Having your fur baby to dote on would be a treat for us. I love taking morning nature walks with fur babies, but I also have a small fenced backyard to play in. Though my family has a very social and friendly havanese we have gates that we can secure to keep her separated if your fur baby prefers its own space. If I need to leave the house for school pick up etc they will be separated on different floors of the house. Their safety is my top priority. Other wise they will be free to roam and explore the house with me. Please feel free to share any special instructions that will make your fur baby more comfortable and feel safe away from home.
About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life. I have raised 3 puppies. I have taken care of elder dogs. I have taken care of cats. I personally have 2 dogs, and 4 cats. I understand how much patience and empathy matters when it comes to taking care of your furry friends, and how they are truly part of the family. Hi, I'm currently in college I take classes 2 days a week. I have weekends and Mondays completely free to help out with your pets needs. I understand I will be a new person in their environment and will take things at their pace. I have my own pets, and I've pet sit before so I'm very experienced and patient with their quirky personalities.
“Rachel was a great help when we needed someone last minute to watch Bear and Bagel. She did a fantastic job keeping them comfortable and keeping us updated. We really appreciated her reliability and care. Thanks so much, Rachel!”
“Always happy to have Lorene sit with my boys as she gives plenty of love and attention, to the point they don’t even miss us when we’re gone. Would highly recommend for snuggles and comfortable walks.”
“Livia was great!! She was able to come to our house for a meet and greet a few days before our last minute trip away on a holiday weekend. She was timely, flexible with our schedules, and comfortable with our four dogs and one cat. She gave us consistent updates and photos, which were super appreciated. We will definitely reach out to Livia again to pet sit our furballs. Thanks Livia!”
“Carson was wonderful with my 2 cats! He sent pictures for updates and even dealt with a spontaneous hairball ? one of my cats was not happy about Carson but Carson continued to let him get comfortable and finally sent pictures of my cat hanging out on his lap!”
“This was our first time booking with Selina. We had a meet and greet prior to the sitting time. And, we knew at that time that she was the sitter for us. During our time away, Selina kept us informed and sent pictures. She even had a sighting or two of one of our kitties who normally hides from the world when we are away. Selina cleaned up after the cats eating sessions and kept our flowers alive. All of our cats were very happy in Selina's care and we will be booking again. Thank you Selina!”
“Keirsten and Zeeke hit it off immediately and it was refreshing to see them both have an amazing time while she house sat and took care of our elderly statesman. She provided constant updates, pictures, videos, and made sure to ask all the important questions to take care of our pup. Would definitely recommend.”
“Sandy was the perfect fit for our house/pup sitting needs. Our two pups loved & trusted her immediately. She was kind enough to set up a meet & greet beforehand and was sure to provide consistent pics/communication throughout the stay. 10/10 recommend! Will be using her again for sure!”
“Sophia was an amazing Rover! She kept us updated the whole time and seriously spoiled Roxie while we were gone! Is was so nice knowing our dog was in good hands the whole time we were gone:)”
“Jalinne was great with our dog Brownie. He has separation anxiety and was initially anxious when we left, but finally settled down with Jalinne. She couldn't have been more helpful managing his behavior.”
“Natalie took great care of our dog while we were away. I had some concerns leaving our dog with a stranger for the first time because he can be protective of his home. Natalie made the time to come meet our pup at a neutral spot and then headed to the home so he could get use to her in his environment. The meet and greet went well and our dog was excited to see her when she came to stay overnight. Natalie was very quick when returning my texts and calls. She took great care of our pup while we were away and we will use her again in the future.”

Jess was amazing from initial meet & greet all the way through her stay with our pets. She kept in touch during the stay and sent pictures of our babies to let us know everyone was doing well. She kept to the dogs’ schedule and gave them ample exercise despite the rainy weather. It was nice knowing my pups were in good hands and I felt like I did not need to worry at all while I was away. We will definitely book with Jess again!
Musu was able to board our two cats for a few weeks even though we asked for it last minute. She was very flexible and considerate with our situation (we had to extend the stay last minute too). I have received updates daily with pictures and the communication was great. My cats were well taken care of. Would book again!
Keira was an absolutely phenomenal sitter for our cranky old lady Bug! A ton of great communication and pictures, we never had to worry about how Bug was doing. Even though Bug was extremely difficulty taking her pills, Keira displayed a ton of patience with our pup. I could not recommend her enough!!
Hailey truly went above and beyond watching my pup while we were away at the beach! Initial introduction was warm and could trust she'd be attentive and affectionate towards him. Updated me with photos and comments during our trip, and when I came back the place was as tidy as when we left it! She even made a handwritten note and Polaroid photo of my doggo which I will cherish. Very kind lady who will treat your pet great, highly recommend
Rachel was great. She had a personal situation come up, and she communicated that with me and she was still able to be sure that my dog got his medications on time. She sent pictures and updates and took great care of my house and pets. I definitely hope to work with her again and would highly recommend her!
We had a wonderful experience with Samantha as our dog sitter! She took great care of our dogs and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Samantha kept the house clean and tidy, sent us regular pictures and updates, and it was clear our dogs were happy and well cared for. We really appreciated her communication and attention to detail. Highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!
Claire did a GREAT job taking care of our two little terriers. She followed all our instructions perfectly and kept us updated with pictures all day long. She was on time and left our house just as she found it. The dogs were not stressed at all when we got home, so we knew they were happy being in Claire’s care. We would highly recommend her to anyone needing a caring dog sitter. We will definitely be using her again.

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 Manassas Park 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 Manassas Park 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 Manassas Park 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
