“Suzanna is an absolute gem. Lovely to chat with, lots of pics of my two pups and just made us feel so comfortable being away from our home. She is a perfect choice if you want someone in your home who cares about making sure you as well as your pets feel well taken care of and respected. 100% look forward to having her in our home again! Just a perfect experience.”
“Natali was great! She watched our 2 dogs in our home for several nights while we were out of town. She provided daily updates and photos of your fur babies and responds promptly. She is also, do far, the only in-home sitter who respected our home. Highly recommend Natali!”
“Madison was great, she spent a ton of time with the dogs and they seemed to really enjoy her company. She was on time and very communicative with me while I was away and I would most definitely recommend her.”
“Elizabeth stayed for two full weeks at our house taking care of all the pets, and even the plants. It was SO nice leaving without needed to do anything or stressing the animals with a different environment or prolonged loneliness while we were gone and returning with everyone and everything still in its place happy and healthy.”
“Tori has sat for our lab Max several times and we always look forward to her help! She is quick, communicative, sends such nice photos and Max is always SO happy. Thanks Tori!”
About: I’ve dog sat for one couple, with other little jobs throughout, consistently. I would prefer no senior dogs. My family has a 65lbs Blue Heeler.

I’m able to crate your dog in your home if needed. I am also able to feed, walk, play, and provide water for your pet.
About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of dogs since I was 8 and I have always had a dog of my own growing up.

“Kiley is awesome! She did a great job house sitting and caring for our elderly dog. She administered his medications with no issues. House was left clean and pets were happy! We are so glad we have someone local we can trust.”
“Ella is an incredible Pet Sitter! She is conscientious, attentive, and really, really good with animals. She was very responsive to all of my texts. My dog was recovering from surgery and she administered all medications and was careful with stairs, running, and jumping. I enjoyed my vacation because I didn’t have to worry about the care of my pet while I was gone. Thank you, Ella for a great job!”
“Keyaira is fantastic! My dogs were so happy when we returned home and they are not easy to keep. (One of my dogs is neurotic!) Will only hire Keyaira from now on and have recommended her to many people.”
“Abigail did a fantastic job!! She was on time, reliable, left our home in great condition, exceeded our expectations, and our fur-babies absolutely loved her! I came home briefly to grab an item, and found them all curled up on the sofa together. It was such a relief to know that my home and my animals were in good hands. We will definitely be using her again, and totally recommend her to anyone seeking quality pet care. Thank you, Abigail!”
About: Hello! My name is Eve, I’m 25 years old and I live in the heart of Warrenton, VA. I genuinely love caring for animals it’s something I’ve wanted to do my whole life and I’m so grateful for any opportunities to work with some furry friends! I grew up around many animals including: Dogs (of all sizes), many cats, mice, hamsters, fish and more. I have a small chihuahua/dachshund mix, her name is Tulip and she lives with me most of the time (sometimes she spends time at my brothers house with his family) so if I’m boarding dogs at my home she would most likely be there so dogs who don’t get along with other dogs so well shouldn’t board with me :) I look forward to working with you! I work M-F from 3pm-8:30pm and Saturdays from 9am-noon. So that leaves plenty of time for your furry friends in the mornings/afternoons and weekends ! I have a small fenced in yard, as I live in a townhouse. However, there’s plenty of sidewalks and easily accessible parks nearby for playtime!
About: I’ve had 13 years of pet care experience, including walking, bathing, and grooming! We’re very interactive with the pets, with at least one family member home at all times. I am currently at a law firm in Fairfax. I will be home in the mornings and evenings every day, with flexible availability. I can come to you anywhere in the Warrenton/Marshall/Bealeton/Gainesville area. We have a fenced-in yard and crating available (if requested or necessary for your pet). We have a young Golden Retriever who loves to play and swim in the pool! If the pool will be an issue for your pup, we will avoid the backyard and stick to walks & the front yard!
“Gabrielle did a wonderful job watching my my dog Henry and kept me up to date with messages and photos. Henry also seemed super happy and was very relaxed upon my return home which means he had great care and company. I would definitely recommend Gabrielle.”
About: Pets are like family to me! I do not have any formal pet care experience on Rover, but I have been helping take care of animals my whole life. My family has cared for several pets and I have pet sat several times for friends and other family members. I care deeply about the individual needs of every animal and want them to feel safe, respected, and have a fun time while in my care. I can provide hourly photo updates of your pet to keep you updated on the activities we are doing together! I have a pretty flexible schedule that may slightly vary depending on other weekly priorities. Feel free to reach out with any time and day and I can get back to you with my availability! I can adhere to the safety of your pets as needed. Pets under my care will be watched closely and client preferences of crating or other needs will be honored.
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 15 and absolutely love to watch or walk others animals. I am able to walk during the day. I am currently looking for a job and DoorDash and Instacart on my free time. I am able to walk and/or check on them throughout the day. With respect and courtesy. If I am at someone else’s home I make sure to clean up after myself of necessary along with making sure the animals are as comfortable as possible.
“Caitlin took amazing care of our cats and dogs while we were away for the week! She gave extra attention and love to our reactive and anxious dog, and took special care of our senior kitty and helped them both feel comfortable while we were away. She followed the instructions we left for medicine and special care and updated us every day on how everyone was doing. We would definitely recommend Caitlin!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Warrenton
Lauren was great to work with and made the whole experience really easy. She communicated consistently and sent pictures of Harley, which I genuinely appreciated—it made it easy to relax knowing she was doing well. Everything went smoothly on my end, and I felt comfortable the entire time. I’d definitely book with her again.
Jarett was easy to work with. He was available for a video chat before the sit and made sure he was comfortable with the details of Mogi’s care. Provided check-ins as requested. Mogi was a happy girl when I came home and my house was clean and tidy. A big relief after being away.
Lauren was so wonderful! She is responsible and kind. My dogs are both quirky rescues and Lauren was kind and understanding of their needs (one of which needs medication 3 times a day). She has great communication skills and wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again.
Alan was great! This was our second time using Alan and we will definitely look to use him again in the future. Reliable, good communication, and our dog is happy when we return. He even stayed late on our day of return since we were returning late which was great especially since our flight was delayed. Thank you Alan!

FAQs for House Sitting - Warrenton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Warrenton on Rover is $46.62 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 2,618 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Warrenton. 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 Warrenton 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 Warrenton 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 Warrenton 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.

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.
