“Olga and Stepan took great care of my two dogs while I was away. They sent me pictures, administered meds, took them for walks, and gave them plenty of affection. One of them was home with the dogs at all times which I am sure they enjoyed since I cannot work from home. I highly recommend them and will definitely request them again.”
About: Hello, I have been taking care of a wide range of animals since I was 15. I’ve had 5 ferrets, guinea pigs, cats and dogs my whole life. I have a Staffordshire terrier, an American bully, and a black lab/ leopard catahoula mix. I am used to having a heavy dog on the opposite end of the leash and I am well experienced in animal body language to keep your baby and myself safe. I am an independent contractor who does Rover, Spark, DoorDash and a couple other side gigs. I have worked a 9-5 and it was incredibly difficult following a schedule someone else made for me while trying to manage my kids school and sports schedule's. Since becoming an independent contractor I have gained great relationships with residents of Culpeper and Rappahannock county and more time with my kids. These side gigs help provide me a way to bring in income, socalize, work easily with my kids school and sport schedules and give me the flexibility to rest when my autoimmune disease flares up. I will make sure any and all instructions are followed correctly to ensure adequate and safe service. Plus a few head rubs before I left.
“Brenna was a wonderful pet sitter to our dog, Rocky over the weekend! She kept me up to date on how he was doing and sent me plenty of pictures and videos of him having a wonderful time! I knew Rocky was safe and being taken care of while in Brenna's care and I truly I appreciate that. Thanks again!!!”
“Ronda was not only efficient and responsive, sharing twice-daily feedback about the care and feeding of our two kitties, but she was also able to establish an affectionate bond with them during our 16-day absence. We are pleased to give Ronda 5 stars and would highly recommend her.”
About: Animals definitely perceive my positive attitude, and people do too. I genuinely love making cats and dogs happy. I often talk to any animal quite a bit because I believe a calm tone of voice is good for them psychologically. Additionally, I have taken care of multiple dogs and cats throughout the years, working in kennel facilities and through ownership, and I understand what is required to keep them happy and healthy. I have a flexible schedule, with much time to ensure your pets get the exercise he or she needs, and the attention they deserve. They won't be lonely while you're away! Additionally, I can administer any medications necessary and follow any special dietary restrictions. Your cats and dogs are in good hands with me! I center taking care of my own animals around my daily schedule. I do my best to keep their regular feeding times ,and for my dogs walking times at expected hours. It can be difficult, but it wouldn't be fair for them to not know what to expect. So ultimately, I adjust my required needs around their schedule in terms of errands, and etcetera. I care for pets in a way they are accustomed to; meaning regular schedules for feeding, walks and/or medication. If they are staying in my home, I would try to provide the most comfortable accommodations as possible while awaiting their people. But in a client's home, I would just coddle the pet, give them comfort, and again - keep them on the schedule they are accustomed to.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all ages and provided medications when needed including pills, eye drops, and shots! I also am flexible to what your pet’s routine already is! I’m home for summers from college (Go Dukes) and I’ve always loved animals, so pet-sitting is my only job over this time! I’m available all days throughout the week! When you’re vacationing in the summer I will look after your pets and give you peace of mind with pictures I take of them and I always leave your house looking like I was never even there!
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 7 years, and it’s something I genuinely love. I have experience with dogs of all sizes from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra care and attention. I treat every pet like family and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Pet care is a regular and rewarding part of my weekly routine. I’m calm, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s needs making sure they get the right balance of exercise, playtime, and rest throughout the day. Pets stay in a clean, cozy, and pet-friendly space with plenty of room to relax or play, including a fully fenced yard where they can safely explore and enjoy the outdoors. There’s always someone home even if I need to step out briefly, my mom grandma or my boyfriend, who are both equally experienced and caring with pets, are always around to help. I usually introduce them during meet and greets so everyone feels comfortable and at ease
About: I have been taking care of the animals of close friends and family since I was 19 years old. In addition to taking care of cats and dogs, I am also an experienced farm hand. I have taken care of horses, chickens, donkeys, and Alpacas. Whatever your pet needs are, I can do it. I am currently doing volunteer work on Tuesdays, but am available every other day of the week. Early mornings and afternoons work best for me, but I am available later in the evening when needed I can do feedings, walks, drop ins, and full night stays. I can also administer oral medication. I have a dog of my own and she gets daily medication I give her myself.
“Megan is an absolute treasure!! And that’s with a T not a P. Although she was also a pleasure to work with she is one of the most capable, friendly, caring, conscientious, pet sitters I have ever met. I will definitely use her again. I say treasure because she’s the sitter I would want again and again and again. 10/10 🥰🥰”
“Deborah has taken care if my two Springers a few times. She takes wonderful care if them, and sends me updates and pictures frequently during the stay. I always come home to very happy dogs!”
About: Hi! I’m someone who has grown up around dogs my whole life, and caring for them has always just been a natural part of who I am. I’ve had three family dogs over the years, and each one has taught me something different. From playful puppy energy, to daily routines and training, to slower senior care and patience. One of my dogs, Charlie, recently passed, and caring for him through his life,especially at the end really deepened how much I understand what pets mean to a family. Because of that, I don’t take pet care lightly, I treat every dog like they’re part of my own home, and I try to make them feel safe, calm, and loved while you’re away. I’m very active and love being outside, so walks and playtime are something I genuinely enjoy, not just a task. At the same time, I’m just as comfortable with mellow dogs who need a gentler pace or extra attention. I’m patient, attentive, and I pay close attention to routines because I know how important consistency is for pets. My goal is always to make things easy for you and stressfree for your pet. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how they’re doing, and I’ll do my best to make sure they feel right at home with me. I can’t wait to meet your dog and take care of them like they’re my own :) I am a recent graduate from Kettle Run High School and I am not attending college, I am looking for work in the real estate field and am free everyday to do some walking or sitting! I walk, feed, and play with my own personal dogs, I can offer feeding the dogs, staying in your home when out of town, walks, taking them out in yard, playing with them, petting them.
“Ananda did an amazing job with my little pack! Including my blind, senior girl who needs extra TLC. I never worried about them, as she would check in and send pictures—-which was great as I was out of the country. We will definitely have Ananda visit again on my next trip away from my furkids!”
“Anastasia was amazing with my dogs. I waited until the last minute to book her and she was very accommodating and so easy to work with. She even came out to meet the dogs a few days before our trip. She stayed overnight at my house with my 3 dogs--my 90 lb Spanish Mastiff (Presa), and my 2 foster dogs: a 50 lb Basset mix and a 90 lb Anatolian Shepherd. My Presa doesn't like strangers and will bark all day at them. The Basset also barks at strangers. The Anatolian likes to get up really early in the morning and plays non-stop. All 3 sleep in bed with you. These are not easy dogs to watch. Yet, Anastasia was great. She kept me updated, several times a day, on how they were doing with texts and pics. I had never used a dog sitter before and was very nervous, but she put my mind at ease. I would definitely use Anastasia again and highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve been around cats and dogs. I’ve taken care of my childhood dog and my parents three dogs. I also have a pet cat that I had for two years. I am passionate about exercising the dogs needs such as frequent walks, enrichments, and making sure to sneak in their medicine! One of my parents dogs needs to take medicine everyday and often times I do help. The same energy goes towards cats, I believe enriching and making sure they take their medicine is important! Since I intend to further my higher education, my routine and schedule is open and flexible for any pet care services that is needed for my clients. I care for pets in my home by making sure they have all their needs; any bedding, medicine, water, food, and enrichment toys. To add, making sure the pets cannot get into places or items that can be dangerous to them. If it’s within the clients home, I will make sure with the client of the proper medication to the right per, a list on what/how much they should be fed and their schedule, and any walking schedule the client insists on. Of course, providing adequate enrichment that involves treats/rewards!
About: I have worked with animals ever since I could start working with them. When I was in middle school, I started volunteering with an animal rescue that specialized in labs and German shepherds. We also took in a lot of dogs that had mega-e, a condition in which their esophagus is enlarged and not able to receive foods or liquids to their stomachs properly. In cases like this I learned how to properly administer medications and foods to those animals to ensure they stay as healthy as they possibly can, it wasn't easy. I have fostered a numerous amount of dogs since then!! As soon as I was of age, I decided to work at dog daycares to gain more experience. There I learned how to groom ( nail trim, bathe, ear clean and teeth brushing), administer different medications and what to look for when a dog is stressed/ upset. I currently work at a vet clinic where I help assist our wonderful veterinarians in making sure every animal gets the care they need:) I currently work at a Petmedic Urgent Care about 5 minutes away from my apartment but have a pretty flexible schedule. I live with my boyfriend who was a dog groomer, as well as was getting trained to be a dog trainer. He currently works from home and is also on this app. Whenever I have a shift we tag team and he helps assures the pets are well taken care of!!! Scheduling meet and greets to ensure everyone gets along helps make sure this is okay:) Honestly, I treat every dog or animal like they are my very own. There is no animal I am scared of watching, nothing I would do to put a animal in harms way and understand every pet parent has a specific way they care for their dog! Every home I enter, I also treat it like it is my own. I am very respectable and have been in pet care for so long there is nothing that I wouldn't do for your pet<3

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 268 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Round Hill. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Round Hill 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 Round Hill 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Round Hill 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.

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.
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.
