“Sara is phenomenal!!! She is punctual, attentive, kind, fun, professional, pays attention to every detail and was the perfect fit for my 4 doodles!! She did everything I asked of her and more!

We will book again and again and again….as long as she keeps coming back!🙂🙃🙂🙃”
“Fatima did a great job taking care of our house and cats while we went away for a week. She was responsive and sent lots of photos. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our guys were well taken care of. We highly recommend her and we will use her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child. I love going on long walk with dogs, playing with cats, and simply just having them as company. I have experience with big and small dogs, as well as many breeds of cats. I am comfortable with long and short walks, house visits, as well as just company/play time. I’m currently working part time as a clinical medical assistant, as well as finishing my college degree. I like to spend my spare time with animals, and enjoy going on walks early in the morning, or even late at night. I am able to work around my schedule and do house visits at your convenience. I am good with keeping animals secure and on a leash while on walks, keeping them on the property and ensuring their safety. I am experienced in crate training as well.
“David took care of Mason and Lily for me for one week while I was on vacation. David is a great communicator and sent pictures regularly along with updates. I highly recommend David as he is a trusted sitter.”
“Hailey was amazing! She is so kind and professional. My girls loved her! She took such great care of them. She communicated, sent updates, and pictures. Reached out with any questions or concerns. She went over and above taking care of my house, leaving it very clean. I am so happy I found her.”
“Jalinne took excellent care of our pets while we were out of town. She updated us with photos and videos of the dog and cat, and she made sure they received individual attention and affection. We returned to find our pets looking very healthy and relaxed.”
About: I have experience previous experience with animals. I have little over a year experience working at a dog daycare gaining daily hands-on experience with dogs of all kinds. I also have three fur babies of my own—two cats and one dog—so caring for animals is a big part of my everyday life and something I truly love. I currently work at Dogtopia of Manassas, but I make sure to schedule my time so I can still give pets plenty of attention and care. Whether it’s before or after my shifts or on my days off, I’m dedicated to being reliable and making sure your pets feel loved, comfortable, and well taken care of. I am very attentive when it comes to pet care and always prioritize safety, comfort, and overall well-being. I follow routines carefully, provide a safe and clean environment, and make sure each pet gets the right balance of exercise, attention, and rest. I also stay alert to any changes in behavior to ensure they remain happy and healthy while in my care.
“Alexis was awesome! She responded quickly to messages and kept us updated with how our cat was doing through our vacation. Our cat can be very hesitant and intimidating in his behavior with new people - Alexis came right in without hesitation and put us to ease that she would work around him. I would absolutely recommend Alexis to someone in the area looking for a cat sitter. We will definitely look to Alexis next time we need cat sitting services!”
“Gloria was an excellent pet sitter. She was very attentive to every detail; her communication was timely and detailed; she went above and beyond to ensure our pets safety and well being.”
About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. I currently have cats, a dog, and a lizard! I have experience pet sitting for family and neighbors. I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I am flexible and can hang out with your pets as much as you would like. I am open to late nights or early mornings as well. I believe that pets are the most comfortable in their own homes. It’s better to come to them so they can stay where they know, rather than having to get comfortable in a new place.
About: I’ve have two years of professional experience with providing care for dogs and cats, though I have lots of experience with taking care of animals, since I have a senior dog and a two year old cat! Ihave done over 300 services as a pet caregiver on another app, I can provide a link to my profile! I’m currently have a lot of free time but I am attending college a GMU only doing online classes this semester so my schedule is very flexible! I also usually always bring my sister with me on any service I do and she always helps out. I also want to let pet parents know that if your pet(s), specifically larger dogs, are overly reactive that I can not provide services for you because of the safety of myself and the dog, please just be honest about how your dog(s) responds to caregivers, I always try my best to provide 110% effort in all my services and I can’t do when I don’t know what can tigger your pet, I had a bad experience during a sitting and pet parent told me there dog was very well-behaved and then when sitting the dog kept grabbing my leg, (was around the same height as me when he stood up) and would not let go and didn’t listening to any commands the pet parent said he listened to and kept biting through my clothes and my hands. It was a very scary experience because I was told something else but one bad experience doesn’t compare to all the good dogs I have walked! I have walked large dogs and I have never had any issues with them and are usually always the sweetest pups to walk and are very gentle on their leashes, and are always excited to go on walks by jumping on me (which I never mind) or licking! I live in a dog friendly neighborhood and live near a walking trail. I have a family dog and cat who are both friendly to all animals. They are both low maintenance and always enjoy meeting new animals, they have been around birds and guinea pigs as well! I do prefer sitting in the pet parent’s home just mainly because the pets are most comfortable at their home and I don’t do overnight stays just because I also have animals that need my attention. I love when pet parents provide detail instructions about their expectations and daily tasks of their pets!
“Isabel is kind, loving and reliable. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter for our family. Not only did our dogs take to her immediately, but my house was spotless when we got back. She’s the best!”
About: After proudly serving in the military, I decided it was time for a change. Changing careers has opened up my schedule, giving me the opportunity to fill my time with activities I truly enjoy—especially spending quality time with the purest type of love you can get from your fur babies. I have a natural instinct to be protective. Your fur babies will be in good hands with me. I’m comfortable staying calm and stepping in when situations become stressful, including separating dogs if a conflict occurs. I also have some background experience in law enforcement. The reason I mention this is because, with me, you’re not only getting a dog sitter—you’re also getting someone you can trust to look after your home while you’re away. Safety is always my number one priority to those around me. As you look through my photos, you’ll notice several dogs I’ve known and cared for since they were puppies. I’ve taken care of dogs belonging to family, friends, and coworkers over the years. This is simply my first time offering those services through an app. I’d be more than happy to share stories about some of my favorite four-legged friends if you’d like to continue the conversation. They all hold a special place in my heart, and I genuinely loved spending time with them. The Siberian Husky in the photos is my sweet fur baby, Niko. It has been a couple of years since his passing, but he will always have a special place in my heart. Niko was a very loving and gentle Husky. He got along with everyone, loved wrestling with other dogs at the dog park, and enjoyed going on long walks. He was also by my side through some of the hardest times in my life. I’m not quite ready to take on the full responsibility of owning another dog, but I would absolutely love the opportunity to build a special bond with your fur baby. I hope to give them the same love, attention, and companionship I gave Niko. Working a full time job. I can possibly do Thursday evenings. I have some Fridays off/get off early from work. I’m off Saturdays and Sundays. I can be even more flexible, depending on location. I have had dogs stay with me in the past, but I am currently renting and unable to provide that service as of now. I’m available to provide love and care to your fur baby in your home, if you’d like.
“From our first meeting with Perry, we knew our beloved dog and cat were in great hands. Perry was extremely sweet, gentle and thorough caring for our senior dog and spent time getting to know our shy kitty, Eddie. Perry’s communication is excellent. She sent us lots of pictures and videos. We were able to relax and enjoy ourselves knowing our dog and cat were not just walked and fed, but loved on. Our home was kept tidy as well. She is definitely on our favorites list!”
“Kaitlin was absolutely amazing as a pet sitter! She was incredibly friendly, caring, and treated our pets like they were her own. We felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such loving and capable hands while we were away. She also took tons of pictures and kept us updated, which gave us so much peace of mind and made us feel connected to them. It was clear that she genuinely cared about their happiness and well-being. We would absolutely recommend Kaitlin to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and exceptional pet sitter!”

Jess was amazing from initial meet & greet all the way through her stay with our pets. She kept in touch during the stay and sent pictures of our babies to let us know everyone was doing well. She kept to the dogs’ schedule and gave them ample exercise despite the rainy weather. It was nice knowing my pups were in good hands and I felt like I did not need to worry at all while I was away. We will definitely book with Jess again!
Musu was able to board our two cats for a few weeks even though we asked for it last minute. She was very flexible and considerate with our situation (we had to extend the stay last minute too). I have received updates daily with pictures and the communication was great. My cats were well taken care of. Would book again!
Keira was an absolutely phenomenal sitter for our cranky old lady Bug! A ton of great communication and pictures, we never had to worry about how Bug was doing. Even though Bug was extremely difficulty taking her pills, Keira displayed a ton of patience with our pup. I could not recommend her enough!!
We had a wonderful experience with Samantha as our dog sitter! She took great care of our dogs and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Samantha kept the house clean and tidy, sent us regular pictures and updates, and it was clear our dogs were happy and well cared for. We really appreciated her communication and attention to detail. Highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!
Mo was awesome. He showed up on time, was friendly, left our home as it was when we left, and most importantly, our pets didn't act as if they missed us when we returned. He has his own transportation and has a flexible schedule that could potentially make him more accessible to you and your pet's needs. We booked pretty last-minute, and Mo was very accommodating. We will hire him again.
Anastasia took fantastic care of my dog over four days. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly attentive to my dog’s well-being—going the extra mile with careful meal prep and regular walks (as well as bringing some packages that arrived while I was away). I especially appreciated the updates and photos, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Anastasia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

The average cost of House Sitting in Sudley is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $83 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Sudley 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 Sudley 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 Sudley 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.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.
