“Tasha was wonderful to work with. She was very responsive and it was easy to coordinate with her. She sent daily updates, pictures and videos and was great with my pup. Will def use her again!”
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life. I got my first dog when I was 6 and cared for her until I moved abroad at 17. I also adopted a cat at 15 and have been responsible for her daily care. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I am generally available on weekdays and weekends with flexible hours. Monday–Friday: 3:30 PM – 7:00 PM Weekends: Available all day (morning, afternoon, and evening) I am able to adjust my schedule with advance notice when needed and can accommodate regular or recurring walks as well as occasional bookings. I am especially flexible on weekends and during school breaks. I always prioritize the safety and comfort of every pet in my care. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and make sure pets are never left unattended in unsafe situations. I provide a calm, clean, and caring environment, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved.

“Amanda is absolutely amazing. She thinks ok care of my 3 dogs while I was in Europe, texting me photos and updates every day. She even took one to a vet appointment. People working in my house, and the vets, all told me how wonderful she was. The dogs loved her. She is y to he only reason I could enjoy my trip without worry. I cannot recommend her more highly.”

About: Ever since I adopted my 5 year old son Lentil he has been the joy and light of my life. I have learned so much about what goes into giving a dog a healthy, fun, loving fulfilling life. More importantly I pour all the love I have into everything I have to give to Lentil, whether it’s in the meals I prepare for him everyday, the car rides I take him on, our trips to the park where we play fetch and roll in the grass or our snuggle sessions before bed at the end of our long days. I will give your fur babies the same love, attention and quality of care that I give my very own lentil and treat them just like family. Given that I have Lentil, pet care is a part of my daily life, everything I do revolves around it. I adjust my other life activities to fit in to Lentil’s schedule that takes priority so that I can cater to Lentil’s every need in life first and then address all other responsibilities. In terms of availability for drop ins and walks I am available for the 6am-11 am window, the 11am-3pm window and the 3pm-10pm window. In terms of house sitting at your house, I am available everyday of the week unless booked by a rover client. In your home I will take into account everything made available to take great care of your fur baby. What toys are available? When are certain toys used at what part of the day? Are some more fitting for more active play while others are more catered to more mellow play? Do you have a fenced in back yard or do we need to go to a dog park? How often does your dog like to step out for fresh air/walks and how long should these walks be? Is your dog one that likes to be close contact or one that likes to show affection from afar and enjoys their personal space? Once your fur baby is in my care I will gather all of the info I need to make sure I can give the best care I can give catered to your dog’s unique temperament/needs and personality.
“Korrey took good care of our pup and our house while out of town for a week. We came home to a clean house and a well walked dog. He was able to administer our dogs medication too.”
“Jennifer was fantastic! She went above and beyond with her communication and how she took care of Chase. I got constant updates and pictures. She was extremely attentive and took care of Chase like he was her own.”
About: I have pet sat for my neighbors since I was 15 years old, professionally so for a collective 8 years. (from childhood to today totalling 21 years) I grew up with at least one dog in my parents household, loved both our family dogs through their senior years and beyond. I am pet cpr/ first aide certified, currently own a 9 year old Grey Domestic short hair cat, Thor, and my 28 year old horse, Riley. I am looking to head back to school for veterinary medicine with focus on large animal sports medicine/orthopedics. Eventually mixed practice too. In the horse world, I have 33 years under my belt, with my godmother introducing me at age 3. I am passionate about pet care, large and small. Most experience with cats, dogs, and horses and looking to expand. From the toy breeds of canine, to the extra large goofs, I enjoy caring for your loved ones as if they were my own. Shy guys? No problem! I take my time letting them get to know me without offense. Need a little extra help on training homework from your professional training team? Walk me through and I am more than happy to continue with their routine. I'm a softie for seniors. Looking forward to meeting you all and your pets! Available for walks, pop ins now! Currently in the process of signing up to renew my pet cpr and first aid certification. And I hope to start vet med prerequisites online at NoVA Community College. The later I am able to balance with all the attention on your pets. My neighborhood is nearby Scott's Run, Great Falls Park and Riverbend Park here in McLean and Geat Falls, Virginia. If ok with pet parents, I can take them for a walk (one at a time) during in home boarding. We don't have a fenced yard but our neighborhood offers plenty of walk routes. At client's home, I try to keep our walks with in the neighborhood and no socializing due to safety, even if your pup knows a neighbor's pup.
“Joanna was wonderful! We were able to do a phone call before the stay, and she arrived early for the stay so that we could walk through our pets’ routines! She was friendly, provided lots of updates, and took excellent care of our cat and dog. We were lucky to have her stay with our pets in our home and look forward to having her again!”
“Sjory is amazing! We have 2 anxious cats with very strong personalities and she handled it like a champ. She wasn’t afraid to ask questions and was able to adjust to their particular needs. She sent lots of pictures and we returned to our home just as we left it. Thanks Sjory!!”
“GENUINELY THE BEST EVER! Leia had the best time and Katherine was attentive and very caring!! My dog previously did not have a great experience with a dog sitter, so I was hesitant about booking another. However, Katherine completely exceeded any expectations I had!! She sent regular updates and gave me the peace of mind I needed! She’s the best! Would 10/10 recommend!!!”
“Karly is a 10/10 sitter! She is very communicative and flexible. She treats our home with respect like it is her own. We always feel comfortable and secure knowing that Karly is taking care of our pup!”
“Audrey was SO wonderful. She stayed with my very energetic Golden Retriever and two cats for a few days and was so kind and generous with them. I got lots of pics and reports and felt totally at ease. We will absolutely be using her again! ❤️”
“Rosemary did a great job house sitting for us for 9 days and taking care of our 2 small dogs. She is very responsive with communication, regularly sent photos, and kept us informed. Upon our return, the dogs were healthy & happy, and the house was neat and clean (with one exception - which was remedied easily enough). We appreciate her help and will call upon her again! Thanks Rosemary!”
“Eric was fantastic! He was super communicative throughout the stay and clearly took great care of our apartment. He left everything in its place and even put back on the calming YouTube dog video we'd left on for our dog before we left. He sent us lots of photos of our pup, and it was obvious he was in good hands the whole time.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pimmit Hills
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog and house sitter! She took wonderful care of our home and treated our dog with so much love and attention. She was responsible, thoughtful, and communicative, and we returned to a happy dog and a well-cared-for home. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone.
Amelia was very communicative and did a great job watching our dog and cat. They were super well cared for, and we appreciated the photos every day. Amelia was also very respectful of our home and left things clean and tidy when she left after the visit. We really appreciated the help and would book again.
Alice is very bright and experienced w doggies. She is capable of following the most detailed instructions regarding feeding, exercising and medications. She kept us up to date w cute videos and left our home in very good order inc laundry she used during her stay. Her price was entirely reasonable for the length of stay and amount of attention our Boston Terrier needs and wants. We hope to hire her again.
Tasha did a wonderful job with our 2 young puppies. We requested house sitting while we enjoyed an evening out to ensure our puppies were kept on a potty schedule and to keep them from being crated too long before bedtime. Flynn and Toffee are happy to see Tasha and Mike when they come to visit. They play with them, keep them engaged, and send pictures to capture their time together. We came home to tired puppies which is a key indicator of a successful evening. We look forward to Tasha's next visit with our boys!
Emily house-sat for my two dogs and two cats for 3 nights/4 days, and she is the absolute best. I’ve been through many “more experienced” sitters who just didn’t give my pets the love and attention I expect, but Emily went above and beyond. I’m relieved to have finally found someone I can trust with my babies. She was extremely communicative, flexible, and kind!

The average cost of House Sitting in Pimmit Hills is $57 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $94 per night.

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 Pimmit Hills 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 Pimmit Hills 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 Pimmit Hills 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.

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.

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.
