“My cat was very happy to spend time and play with Svetlana during my 3-week vacation. Svetlana visited him daily and managed all of the necessities plus play time with my cat. I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend her services.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. As a Doberman owner, I’m very comfortable handling high-energy and hyperactive pets, and I understand the importance of exercise, attention, and consistent care. I’m patient, reliable, and focused on making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I’m available at all times — day or night — to provide attentive and reliable care. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I’m committed to making sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. I care for pets by keeping them safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine in the client’s home. I follow feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions closely. I give plenty of attention and supervision, and I’m attentive to each pet’s needs to make sure they feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away.
“Addison is an amazing Rover! I had to take care of a few things last minute and she was ready to answer the call. The daily updates and thoughtful messages were greatly appreciated. She truly cares about taking care of your animals! I highly recommend her to anyone seeking drop-in dog visits.”
About: My family and I have fostered cats and dogs and provided hospice care for a dog with cancer (1 year) until she passed. I understand all breeds and their unique energy needs and activity levels. Medical care and aging limitations would be understood and can be tended to with your pet care needs. I work full time M, T, Th, F, Sa 8am until the deliveries are complete (can range from 2pm to 6pm). When I am not home, there are other family members present (spouse works, dad is retired). In the afternoon and evenings, my children will be attentive to any animals kept at my home. I enjoy connecting with all animals. Our weekends are more hectic with soccer season in full swing. Some weekends we may be elsewhere in Virginia with limited care depending on the weekend, April through June. We have a small fenced in yard with the ability to take your pet out for long, short, or frequent walks. My kids would provide any extra loving and attention while your pet is in my care. I kept a friend's cat for a week. When that week was up, her cat didn't want to leave. Whenever I visit them, the cat finds me to snuggle while I am around. Animals can sense the love and kindness within our family.
“She is wonderful! Our senior pup had a few messes in the house while we were gone and she cleaned them so well. She gave a great report each visit - highly recommend!”
“It is always a little stressful to have a new pet sitter, but Katelyn connected with my two guys, Kramer and Jerry, both very social cats. She stayed and played with them and gave them lots of love. I especially loved all of the pictures she provided. Definitely made this cat mom feel at ease. I recommend Katelyn to anyone looking for someone to take care of their babies.”
“Sonja is terrific! My kitties loved her from the moment she came in. When I got home, my kitties were calm, had full bellies, potties were clean, all was in order. I couldn't be happier with the care Sonja provided, I 100% recommend her.”
“Trinity did an excellent job of looking after our fur babies while we were out of the house. Every part of the process leading up to her visit was easy. Excellent communication at all times. We highly recommend and will use her again in the future! Thanks so much for helping us!”
About: Mon. - Fri. Availability: - Drop Ins.: EVENINGS ONLY - Boarding: Pick Up/Drop Off: 5:30p-9p Weekend Availability: - Drop Ins: Any - Boarding: Any I've dog sat for family members, puppies/dogs ranging from 4 lbs - 100 lbs. All have come in a bit skeptical and left feeling at home. I strive to provide a loving, warm environment for all pups that step paw in my door. Each dog will receive equal treatment and equal love. To be upfront, I am not trained or possess any special skills, I'm just a human who loves dogs and has the patience to work with and help dogs feel comfortable. I’m mostly free on the weekends; weekdays I’m free after 5pm! During my weekend free time, dogs will be out majority of the day aside from naptime between 12pm-2pm and bedtime 10pm - 7am. Dogs will have plenty of hours of play time and the weekends are typically days I use to walk my own dog or go to the local dog park. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly energetic dogs to keep your dog company. Crates/cages, leashs, and collars are required for boarding. You are more than welcome to provide your own bed to ensure that your dog is comfortable. You can bring your own toys as well; however, toys will be provided, along side dog treats and dental chews (with your approval).
About: Hi! I’m home for the summer and excited to spend time doing something I love, caring for animals. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and I recently lost my own, which reminded me just how much animals mean to me. While I don’t have time for a full-time pet right now, I still stay involved by volunteering every week at a local animal shelter and helping care for the cat I live with at school. I also worked as a vet assistant for a year, so I’m experienced with pets of all ages and temperaments. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or anything in between, I’ll treat your pet with the same love and care I gave my own. I’m currently taking an online summer course with a very flexible schedule, so I’m available throughout the summer for pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits. Since I’m not working right now, I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I’m happy to help however I can! In your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely, feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions, so they stay comfortable and happy while you’re away. I make sure they get plenty of attention and care!
About: Hey! I’m Kaitlynn, I have 7 years of experience with animals. I was on rover a few years ago for 5-6 years and took a break after I had kids. I have worked with a travel vet for 2 years (before kids) and dog grooming! My love for animals hasn’t changed, I’m recently new to Rover again because I love working with animals and would love to start to get out there again. I give updates often and will have plenty of photos to share with you! My dogs are super friendly to all animals as they lived on a farm before. I’m hoping to help families while providing for mine:) Pet care fits naturally into my daily life because I own my own business and work for myself, which gives me the flexibility to prioritize animals throughout the day. I can easily build my schedule around feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins without rushing or being tied to a strict 9–5 job. Caring for pets blends perfectly with my active, hands-on lifestyle, and I genuinely enjoy having animals as part of my routine while I manage my business responsibilities. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment where they can relax and feel comfortable. I make sure they get plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and any feeding or medication schedules are followed closely. I also have two friendly dogs of my own who are very social and do well with other animals, which can be great for pets that enjoy companionship. In a client’s home, I follow their routine exactly to help pets feel secure in their familiar environment. I respect their space, keep everything clean and consistent, and make sure pets receive the same level of care, love, and attention they would get from their owner.
About: I have over 10 years experience with training dogs. I’m currently a certified dog trainer at Petsmart. I will treat your pup with respect. No such thing as a bad dog. Can't wait to meet your pup. I’m a trainer at petsmart current working everyday except Tuesdays and Thursdays currently. Those days I’m free to feed, walk, play with or dog sit your pup. Anytime day or night on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I will take the time to meet with you ahead of time and follow all instructions. I’m dog CPR certified. I will make sure I know where everything is that I need and that I have vet contact details.
“Jessica is wonderful! She is always our first choice to take care of our pup. She is attentive, thorough, and always loves on our girl. We are so appreciative of Jessica!”
About: I'll take care of your pets like they were my own! I've had animals my entire life and treat them like my babies. There is nothing I love more than animals. I'm a nurse by day but an animal lover 24/7! I love to snuggle fur babies. I'll feed them, walk them and even work on potty training and tricks 🙃. I can even give them a bath if needed. I'll be very respectful of your home and leave it like I found it. I will provide the best possible care for all of your fur babies. I guarantee I'll provide the best care and love. I'm very excited to get to know your pets and care for them! Animals are a precious gift~ Kim

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Spotsylvania on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,446 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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.
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.
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.
