“Grace was amazing! She took great care of our cat (even when he was sassy and gave her a hard time). We got many regular update photos and she always made sure he got lots of attention. I think it says it all that our cat meowed at the door for days after we got back hoping she would come back and play with him. We will definitely be asking Grace to watch him again!”

“Claudia was wonderful! She helped us with our dog Suki for a month last minute when our other option fell through. We were also just moving back and our house was in chaos and it wasn’t an ideal situation. But she handled it all well by communicating with us regularly to let us know how Suki was doing or if she needed anything else to care for her. Lots of pictures! We are really grateful for her care. She went above and beyond.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Nanjemoy
Morgan was wonderful in several ways that are important to us. First, making sure pets were happy and could use their in/out door in extreme temps. Second, feeding was important, and head counts taken. Third, making sure they were warm in the house and pics taken so I could feel good they were happy. Our dog smiles when she is happy. I recommend him highly. 5 stars.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Nanjemoy 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
