She came and assisted while also watching my boyfriends dogs. My other sitter had failed me while I was in Delaware and Anna saved the day. Thank you so much for dropping by to check in my babies 🥰

April is very easy to get along with and gave excellent care to our cat Miss Pepper. April sent me pictures of our feline at each visit and informed me of package deliveries. Upon my request she checked the water taps drip to ensure the water doesn’t freeze. I highly recommend her.

About: I have many years of pet sitting, up to several pets at a time, including owning many of my own since I was a child. I am patient when meeting new pets, for I understand it may take time to warm up to new people (and other pets!) I’m friendly, and talk to most animals just like they’re humans (lol). I enjoy spending time playing around, going for runs, as well as providing companionship when around pets. We love snuggling in bed over here! I’m not easily intimidated by a shy pet, and will treat them with the same respect and patience as their owners. I have high expectations for my own, so I believe it is only normal and natural to give the same in return for others’ pets so their families are comfortable with who they leave their furry friends with when away. My boy is the friendliest dog ever! He absolutely loves meeting other dogs (and the owners to receive even more affection 🤣). He’s got a lot of energy, which can overwhelm others the first day (he just wants to play!) He is very gentle with small dogs. When meeting others’ on the first day, If they are uncomfortable with his energy level and show they need time to warm up, he immediately backs off and resorts to my side until they are ready. He is very submissive in this sense which is great for no escalation and providing other dogs with the time they need to adjust to a new setting/new friends. I work a full time day job Monday-Friday 8-4, so please be sure prior to requesting services, your pets are able to accept this schedule. I am unfortunately unable to stop in midday as my lunch break does not allow for me to make it very far under 30 minutes. My pets along with the others’ I have boarded have had no issues with a routine working schedule, but every pet has different needs. ❤️ I care for others’ pets like they are my own! It is my duty as a trusted sitter to care for others’ pets in a way they need. I predominantly care for pets in others homes as I have several pets of my own. I do not have any issue with camera systems being in shared spaces to assure families feel safe having someone in their home with their pets.

About: Let's be honest: leaving your cat is the hardest part of any trip. You're missing them before you've backed out of the driveway, wondering if they'll eat, if they'll hide, and if they'll ever forgive you. When your kitty is with me, they'll enjoy their getaway as much as you enjoy yours, so you can travel guilt-free. I offer door-to-door service within 45 miles to give you a true VIP experience. Your cat is secure and safe, escorted from their front door to mine, freeing you to handle your travel logistics while I handle your cats. Once your kitty arrives, you’ll get photo confirmation and details about their journey. → What sets me apart from other sitters? 🛎️ BOUTIQUE, CATS-ONLY CARE — YOUR KITTY CONCIERGE This is a true, cats-only retreat dedicated to giving cats the unique care they deserve while you're away. Here, your fur baby is always the guest of honor. 🕊️ Peaceful, Dog-Free Environment 🚫🐶 🛌 Cage-Free + Private Bedroom for Rest 🛏️ → With 4 rooms dedicated to boarding, your cat (and sibling if needed) enjoys their own bed, litter box, and feeding area. I use calming pheromones in every room, and for kitties that need some extra support I offer the option of boarding in the master suite so they aren’t alone at night. 🧶 Safe Play + Lots of Interaction 🥰 → I am pet CPR & first-aid certified. Your cat’s play is tailored to them – from bird-watching window enclosures to supervised outdoor walks to kitty strolls (in a kitty stroller) and everything in between, your cat will enjoy every day of their vacation. 🐾 A PEACEFUL, CAT-FRIENDLY HOME Every inch is thoughtfully and intentionally designed around what cats need to feel safe and loved. 🐾 Senior cat care & medication welcome 🐾 Shy & anxious cat solutions for the ones who need time to trust 🐾 Calming pheromone comforts in every room 🐾 Someone home around the clock, never an empty building with an alarm 🐾 100% monitoring during catio time when owners give permission for catio play ➜ PEACE OF MIND, DELIVERED You booked this trip to relax or get things done at work. Leave your cat with me and watch your worries evaporate. My home is pet safe and no detail has been overlooked. ✨ Daily photos & updates ✨ Door-to-door pick-up & drop-off option ✨ Only four fur babies at a time, ever Because your cat isn't just a pet to me, they're family. I'll care for yours the way you would, with the same gentleness, attention, and love, so you can leave knowing they're in the safest hands. I work from home full-time, so cats in my care are rarely alone. I am here all day to feed, play, check in, and keep them company. My flexible schedule means I can follow your cat's normal routine, give medications on time, and respond fast to anything that comes up. Caring for cats isn't something I squeeze in around other work. It's my focus, every day. Safety is my top priority. My home is fully cat-proofed and escape-proofed. Cats stay strictly indoors in their own private suite, with secured windows, screens, and doors I treat like Fort Knox. As an extra layer of protection, every cat wears an AirTag for their entire stay, so I always know exactly where they are. Fresh air happens only in my secure, screened catio, only with your permission, and with me watching 100% of the time. I use calming pheromones in every room, keep toxic plants and hazards out, and monitor the outdoors with cameras for added peace of mind. There are never any dogs, and only four cats at a time, so it stays quiet and low-stress. I'm Pet CPR and first-aid certified and comfortable with medications. I'm rarely away, I live here with my husband, and I have trained backup help ready to step in on the rare chance I'm ever called out for an emergency, so your cat is never left without someone qualified to care for them. 🚨 Just 1.2 miles is a 24-hour emergency vet, so if anything ever comes up, help is only minutes away. 🚨

About: Dogs are my babies. There is nothing I love more than to have them follow me around the house. When you leave your dog with me, you can expect a laid back day with frequent leash walks and lots of cuddling on the couch. I have experience pet sitting for family members, and it is one of my favorite things to do. I am available full time, any day of the week. I am also able to offer overnight care. I will promptly communicate any changes to my availability. My yard does not have a fence, so the dogs can only go out for leash walks. There are no other pets in my home.

About: I have cared for dogs and cats for many years and have a true love for animals. As a pet owner myself with 2 dogs. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and caring to look after your furry family members. Animals have always been wonderful companions in my life, and I enjoy providing them with love, attention, exercise, and care while helping pet owners feel at ease. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or companionship, I treat every pet like they are my own. I currently work from home. I am free and able to care for your animal 2-3 times a day within short distance. On the weekends further distance. I provide loving, attentive, and reliable care for pets both in my home and in my client’s home. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, receive daily exercise, bathroom breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also pay close attention to each pet’s personality, routines, and any special instructions provided by the owner to help them feel safe and comfortable. In my client’s home, I help maintain the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress while also keeping the home clean and secure. During walks and visits, I prioritize safety, patience, and positive interaction so every pet feels cared for and loved while their owner is away.

About: Each pet has their own personality and style and I adapt to exactly what your pets needs and wants. If they want cuddles, they get cuddles. If they want space they get space. It’s all about precious pets needs for me. I provided a 5 star service. My aim is to please and keep them happy. I currently have two dogs of my own and a cat. You can rest assured that if your pets are in my care they will be well-loved and taken care of! I will treat your “babies” like they were my own, not only because I’m an animal lover, but because it’s how I want my “baby” treated while I’m away!! That is my promise to you and your fur babies❤️

About: Whether you have a chaotic 4-month-old golden retriever or a 14-year-old tabby who just wants to nap in a sunbeam, I adapt my energy to meet them exactly where they are. I know how nerve-wracking it is to leave your pets. You’ll receive detailed updates and high-quality photos after every visit so you can see exactly how much fun they’re having.

We have a fenced area in our yard, and a safe neighborhood for walks. Additionally, we have a dog and two cats to keep your pet company.

About: Hi there! My name is Wendy and I would love to be given the privilege of meeting and caring for your fur-babies. I grew up in a three-person/three dog family and helped my parents care for our dogs while I was growing up. To say I love dogs would be an understatement; I spent close to 4 years begging my parents for a dog before we finally adopted our adorable Tibetan Spaniel named Eva. Over the years, our little family grew by 3 more furry friends by the names of Luisa, Maya, and Bertie. Since moving out of my childhood home, I've adopted an 8 month old kitten named Binx. Needless to say, if I were to care for your four-legged family members they would not only be a part of your family, but a part of mine as well. I'm available all day on Monday's and Tuesday's, and every other Sunday. I also have availability every day of the week in the late afternoon/evenings so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets during the week! I will make sure all play is supervised, keep a tight grip on their leashes while walking, and prevent any door dashers from making any escapes into the great unknown.

Jennifer was great with Jasmine. Very kind and gentle and laid back which is Jasmine’s kind of style. When we did a meet and greet Jennifer came compared to learn what she needed to do for the sitting, which put me and my family at ease leaving her alone with someone Jasmine didn’t know. I would definitely hire her again to watch Jasmine. ?

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Spotsylvania on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,354 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Spotsylvania. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Spotsylvania 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.

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 Spotsylvania 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 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Spotsylvania with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Spotsylvania. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

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.
