About: Hello, I am a work from home financial systems consultant. I have a soft spot for all animals. My wife and I lost our beloved Bichon Frise several years ago and we’re still not quite ready to adopt another. However, I would welcome the opportunity to open my home to the pets of others while they are at work, on vacation or otherwise in need of someone to look after their fur baby. My wife and I live in Nokesville, VA in a small home on 1.5 acres. The property is not fenced in but not to worry your pet will never leave the house before first being secured to a leash. I have three feral cats that I feed daily. They never come in the house or even allow me to pet them, they just hang out for the food. I was able to trap them all and take to the vet to be spayed/neutered. Ha, maybe that’s why they won’t let me pet them. Anyway, please know that while in my care your pet will be loved and just maybe a little spoiled. I will always follow your specific requirements (dietary, medicine, etc) and communicate regularly with you.
“Danielle was great! Our pups instantly connected with her and were more well behaved for her then they are for us 😅 Truly appreciate her for helping us out last minute and the pups look forward to their next walk with her.”
“Last minute request due to sister coming into town to run the Marine Corps Marathon. So appreciative of Samantha being available! Great communicator and Winnie seems very comfortable with her. Will continue to use.”
About: My first pets were 2 rats. I took care of them exclusively, bathed them, fed and cleaned up after them. The family cat Simba was mainly my responsibility with occasional help from family, and I would take care of our family dog Bentley when I was home for summers from college. I've helped care for several other animals when babysitting children, and occasionally dog sat overnight for other families over a 3 day weekend period. I've also loved my time volunteering at the local dog shelter where I walk, clean up after, and play with all the dogs up for adoption until they find their forever families. Also enjoyed a 6 week program at a dog shelter in Athens, Greece in 2024! I’m in town for the next six weeks with open availability! I’d love to work as much as possible and give your fur baby anything they might need. I care for all pets as if they were my own, making sure they have all the attention and care they need and then some.
“Isabella took wonderful care of our Lab and Pomeranian. She was reliable, caring, and kept us updated while we were away. She was also able to help us on short notice, which we were incredibly grateful for. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We would definitely book with her again! 🐾”
“Kelly was really great with our kitties and I felt at ease knowing she was stopping in every morning while we were gone! I love the photos and daily report on them!”
“Having a 19 year old cat, we did not want to leave her with just anyone while we were anyway. Daniel was willing to come by for a meet and greet to make sure he was a good match. He was excellent to work with for set up and came by on schedule and spent time feeding and providing company in our absence. Daniel provided pictures for each visit which was comforting. If you are looking for someone who is dependable and friendly with your pet, he is your person.”
“Caroline took amazing care of my girl, Stella. She was attentive to Stella’s needs and gave her the cuddles she requested each drop in visit. We will definitely have her back!”
“Vicki has helped me a few times in taking care of my kitties and always does a great job. My kitties are normally shy, but they have opened up to her and are happy to see her. Definitely recommend!”
About: I have volunteered at an animal sanctuary where ensure the well-being of different domesticated animals (chickens, guinea pigs, rabbits, cats, dogs, pigs). When there, I have walked Great Pyrenes dogs and looked after a young puppy. I have experience caring for multiple pets and multiple species at a time. I am passionate about animals and am studying them in college with the hope of pursuing zoo career. I am available most days after 11am with the exception of Sunday when I am not free until 2pm. I am willing to check on the pets multiple times a day and at night. I will be aware of where the pets are when leaving, making sure they do not escape or get trapped. I will ensuring to leave the home in a safe space, keeping harmful items and food away. When taking walks, leashes/collars/harnesses will be secure at all times and actions will be taken to prevent confrontations. The home will be respected and kept clean the entire time.
“We booked Argelia recently to take care of our cats while we were on vacation. She took amazing care of them while we were gone and sent updates every day she checked on them. We will definitely be booking her again when are out of town.”
“Stephanie was great. It was the first time we had a drop in visit for our cat. She was very responsive with pictures and sending an update about any questions we had while we were away from our cat. Would definitely book with her again!”
“Alex, It was so nice to know someone who like’s to spend time with dogs was checking on ours. I am hoping you are interested in helping us out again. I don’t know the dates yet but will be for a weekend in Oct. I will get back to you. I am also trying to figure out how to send you a tip. I am not so good at this tech stuff. Thanks again, Tina”
“If I could do a 10* I absolutely would. She took such great care of our boys and sent us the most adorable photos while we were gone. Alleviated all sense of worry I had before. Thank you for going above and beyond I appreciate it so much!”
“Hannah was lovely - she dropped in on my dog within the windows/times I asked for, she followed my instructions, and gave my dog the attention he needed while respecting my home. Also was very nice to write little recaps in the report cards with cute photos of my dog. Would hire her again :)”
“We love Maddy!! She was way beyond our exceptions and our cats loved her. She is now our go to for home pet care. Thank you Maddy for putting our minds at ease and letting us enjoy our vacation fully.”
“Zach was great! He attended to every detail that we discussed. Our two cats were very happy, I could tell by all of the pictures that he sent. One of our cats is very shy and I told him that he may not see her. I was wrong. He sent us two pictures of her poking her head out and the third picture was her enjoying some pets and scratches. Our other cat had a great time playing and also getting pets and scratches. I’m a happy kitty mom! We will definitely book with Zach again😊”

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 Nokesville 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.

- 90% 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.
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.
