“Pamela was absolutely amazing! She kept in Touch with us during the day and sent us pictures of our fur babies. She went above and beyond - and walked our babies 3-4 times. I know when our dogs do and don’t like someone and they absolutely loved Ms. Pam!!! Thank you for everything Pam. Wish we could carry you in our pocket!!! You are the best”
“Denise is so sweet and accommodating. We had a wedding and it was so comforting that she checked in and sent pics, so we knew everything was okay. Would definitely book with Denise again!”
About: I've cared for a number of dogs and cats of all temperaments. Shy or nervous rescue dogs are no problem! I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, low energy, giant breeds, so you can rest assured knowing you have one of the best looking after your pets. I have a wealth of knowledge, experience, and patients to ensure the best possible stay.I work from home so I have the ability to be with your pets 24/7, walks and/or runs are optional depending on your pet and your comfort level. I work remotely, which allows me to be available for extended stays with your pet. While I'm away, my partner cares for our own dogs and cat so I can fully focus on your pet's needs. When I stay in your home, I care for your pets as I would my own. It's their space and their routine, and my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at ease while you're away. I'll follow their routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, comfort, and care. I also treat your home with the utmost respect.
“Highly recommend! Liz took great care of Finn on a last minute request. Very responsive, lots of pictures and easy to coordinate with. She also house sat for us and left it even cleaner than she found it! Will definitely request Liz again!”
“Chantal took amazing care of my pets and treated them just like family, she stayed a few days while I was out of town and was even able to extend the duration of caring for the dogs an extra day last minute which I was very grateful. My dogs were very happy and got lots of love! Chantel helped keep the house clean as well and left everything in good shape. I would definitely have Chantel watch the doggies again, well trusted!”
“Tanner stayed with our Golden-doodle for the weekend and was wonderful! Great pictures and updates. I know Sammy loved the long walks they went on as well. We will definitely use Tanner again.”
About: My experience with dogs is vast. I have a strong ability to connect with dogs on many levels. I have a calm and consistent demeanor. Worked with elderly, blind and def dogs as well as puppies. I specialize in nutrition and behavioral training. I can offer systemic work for dogs that have trouble staying calm. I use positive reinforcement and patience to create a clear connection. I am retired and have free time to spend with your pet/special creatures. My schedule is flexible and can accommodate most requests. I keep Sunday for my down day so that I can balance when I am working. I am comfortable going for walks, learning during play time and any feeding and meditation needs. I offer puppy massage and systemic work for dogs that enjoy some down time
“Ashton was so great, really easy to communicate with and provided pictures along the way. She was very patient with my dogs who take a little bit to warm up to new people and handled all the feeding and walking wonderfully. Highly recommend! We are moving out of state but would otherwise continue to use her help 👍”
“Gigi was absolutely wonderful while watching our dog and checking in on our cat. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about our pets like they were her own. Knowing she was checking in and keeping us updated gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was happy and well cared for, and she made sure our cat was fed and comfortable too. We’re so grateful for her help and would absolutely trust her again — highly recommend!!!”
“I cannot say enough WONDERFUL things about Kim! She was absolutely fantastic from our first meeting with the pups and throughout our entire trip. She sent pictures, took them for daily walks, made sure our oldest pup got her daily medications, left our house organized and cleaner than when we left it, the list goes on and on! We will use her again and again when we need to leave our pups in good hands. This is the first time we have used a dogsitter off of Rover and we struck GOLD. Our pups were happy and well taken care of; our oldest dog is 11yo with a new diagnosis of Cushing's disease and Kim was so patient with her and kept us updated on her progress. Thank you Kim, you are the best! <3”
“My pups were so happy to have Ketera here while I traveled. She was amazing with the boys. I can’t recommend her enough. She gave them loves, cuddles and belly scratches, sending me photos every day. And she left the house looking spotless. Thank you!”
“Michelle took great care of our boxer dog, Gunner. She was able to work with our schedule and was available during the holidays. She sent pictures daily and played with him in our backyard. I would definitely recommend Michelle and I will use her services again.”
“Savannah did great house sitting and watching our senior dogs. They all were so happy when we got home. I could tell Savannah had kept our house clean and tidy while she stayed during our vacation and asked appropriate questions when necessary. She was awesome at following instructions. I would totally go to her again for any sitting needs!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Virgin
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Virgin on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 203 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Virgin. 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 Virgin 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 Virgin 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 Virgin 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
