“She is amazing! Our dogs adored her and we felt totally safe leaving them in her care. Highly responsive. She helped us out last minute when our regular sitter had a scheduling conflict. We will definitely be using her again.”

About: My name is Elena and I am a US Army Veteran who loves animals. I know the feeling of having to be at work all day and not having the time to be at home with your furry buddy that’s why just leave it to me to fill in the love and attention your buddy needs. I understand when a dog feels excited, threatened, scared or even sad, as I had quite a few dogs in my life to experience all those feelings. If your pup or kitty has an accident at home I have no problem cleaning it right up. I have the career and time that allows me to care for pets in my routine. I have two children who also love love animals! I show them the attention any person needs, play with them, cuddle, give them the exercise their specific breed requires. Allowing the pet to feel like they are home.

About: From wolfhounds to chihuahuas, I have petsat them all! I have experience with giving medicine, assisting senior dogs with mobility, exercising, playing, feeding, and giving all the affection needed. Petsitting would be split with my workday on Monday -Wednesday. I can come in the morning, during my lunch break, and spend as much time as needed after work with your pet. Friday through Sunday I can do as many visits and walks as necessary. It is safer and better to build trust with any animal if there is a meet & greet before petsitting. This helps me know the routines of your household and shows the pets that I'm not a stranger when I come to care for them. Sticking to the routines/key words they know, engaging them with praise, play, or treats, and letting the dog/cat have space when needed - are all ways to help your pet be at ease.

About: Hi! My name is Kemily! I have been surrounded by pets my entire life, and caring for animals has always been something I truly love. I dedicate my time to making sure my pets are happy, healthy, and well cared for. I also regularly care for family members' dogs and cats while they are away on vacation. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they receive all the love, attention, and care they deserve. I'm happy to help with feeding, walking, grooming, cleaning up after them, giving medications, playing, and providing plenty of cuddles! I'm a very trustworthy, responsible, and loving person who genuinely wants what's best for both pets and their owners. Animals naturally seem to feel comfortable around me, and I always do my very best to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while in my care. Your pets aren't just animals to me; they're family! I will always go above and beyond to give them the best possible care. I currently have an open and flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for your pets. I'm available throughout the week and can accommodate different schedules, whether you need daily visits, walks, overnight stays, or pet sitting while you're away on vacation. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after your furry family members, and I'm happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pets receive all the love, attention, and care they deserve! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! Whether I'm caring for your pets in your home or mine, I make sure they are in a clean, safe, and loving environment. I do my best to keep their normal routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, grooming, and any medications they may need. I always make sure they have fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, and plenty of attention and affection. I carefully follow any instructions provided by the owners and respect each pet's individual needs and personality. I also make sure to keep the home clean, clean up after pets, and provide regular updates and pictures so owners can feel comfortable knowing their furry family members are in good hands. I treat every pet as if they were my own!

“Karen provided on-site petsitting approximately 10 days for us. We recently relocated to our new home from out of state and the extended time away from the pets was sure to be a challenge. We are very grateful for the assistance provided by Karen. Upon our return, all was good. The pets appeared clean, happy and healthy.”

About: Hello, I have been taking care of a wide range of animals since I was 15. I’ve had 5 ferrets, guinea pigs, cats and dogs my whole life. I have a Staffordshire terrier, an American bully, and a black lab/ leopard catahoula mix. I am used to having a heavy dog on the opposite end of the leash and I am well experienced in animal body language to keep your baby and myself safe. I am an independent contractor who does Rover, Spark, DoorDash and a couple other side gigs. I have worked a 9-5 and it was incredibly difficult following a schedule someone else made for me while trying to manage my kids school and sports schedule's. Since becoming an independent contractor I have gained great relationships with residents of Culpeper and Rappahannock county and more time with my kids. These side gigs help provide me a way to bring in income, socalize, work easily with my kids school and sport schedules and give me the flexibility to rest when my autoimmune disease flares up. I will make sure any and all instructions are followed correctly to ensure adequate and safe service. Plus a few head rubs before I left.

I pride myself on my personal, hands-on approach and always treat your pets like family. With 5 dogs of my own, I’ve developed a well-organized routine that ensures all their needs are met.

Whether it's keeping up with their daily exercise or giving them personal attention, I’m used to managing multiple pets and ensuring they feel happy, healthy, and loved. I bring this same level of care and dedication to every pet I look after. I prioritize the safety and comfort of every pet I care for, whether in my home or yours. My home is pet-friendly and designed to ensure a safe environment for dogs of all sizes. I make sure that all pets are kept in secure areas, especially during feeding times and walks.

I also ensure that any areas where pets will be spending time are pet-proofed, offering peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I will take care of any animal and have years of experience doing so. I love all breeds and I own two large breed dogs myself, along with my pig who thinks he is a dog. I graduated from WVU in August with my masters degree in forensic and fraud examination, and am currently teaching full time. I am available most weekends for full day in-home sitting, and am available from 3-10pm Monday through Friday. If needed, and you are located close enough, I am available for early morning walks and drop in visits between 4:30am and 6:30am. My schedule consists of waking up every morning, taking care of my many many farm animals, going to work and reading in my free time. I also love going to the gym. I like to try and gain trust through treats with all animals, treats and patience go a long way when it comes to gaining respect.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats for nearly my entire life. As I grew up, I learned the ins and outs of taking care of pets at every stage of their lives and have loved every second of it. From training puppies and kittens to providing care in their most vulnerable moments, I learned what it takes to be a pet’s best friend. I hope to become just as wonderful a friend to your furry family as my own pets have been to me. I’m currently working a part-time job with a relatively flexible schedule, and I’m more than happy to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for your pups! My weekly schedule varies, which allows me to coordinate my availability around your pet care needs whenever possible. When I bake, cook, or build, I make sure to follow instructions to the letter. I take that same approach to pet sitting, carefully following any guidance you provide so that your pet receives the care they're accustomed to. Above all, it’s my mission to be the guard dog, maintaining a safe, comfortable, and happy environment for your furry family member while giving you peace of mind that they're in good hands. Whether it’s keeping up with favorite walks and familiar routines or providing extra cuddles and special care, I’ll ensure the only thing your pet notices while you’re away is a new best friend!

About: I have been taking care of the animals of close friends and family since I was 19 years old. In addition to taking care of cats and dogs, I am also an experienced farm hand. I have taken care of horses, chickens, donkeys, and Alpacas. Whatever your pet needs are, I can do it. I am currently doing volunteer work on Tuesdays, but am available every other day of the week. Early mornings and afternoons work best for me, but I am available later in the evening when needed I can do feedings, walks, drop ins, and full night stays. I can also administer oral medication. I have a dog of my own and she gets daily medication I give her myself.

Nicole followed our directions to a tee and we felt so glad knowing that she was watching our dog and home. She took some pictures of my dog during the week and texted them to me which comforted me knowing I could see him doing well. I can't say enough good things about Nicole!”

We couldn't be happier with Suzanna, and the amazing job she did caring for our three little dogs over a three day period last weekend. She is kind , punctual, and we felt truly loved our dogs, they in turn truly loved her . We were attending our sons wedding, and never once worried about how they were being cared for, or their well being! I would highly recommend Suzanna, for short or long periods of time to care for your pets. We would not hesitate to book her again, or recommend her to friends and family ! Keith & JoAnn Barclay

Our dog and cat loved Cammy - and we humans think she’s pretty wonderful too. First meeting - Luna ran out the door to greet Cammy during a thunderstorm - when she had just seconds earlier been hiding in her usual enclosed bathroom storm spot. I knew immediately we’d have nothing to worry about while away. Cammy communicated well and responded quickly, always followed through, is thoughtful and kind, sent regular updates with pics. We returned home to a relaxed and happy dog and cat and a home looking better than we left it. Thank you Cammy! Luna and Pete miss you. We’ll definitely be reaching out in the future for your help.

FAQs for House Sitting - Warrenton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Warrenton is $54 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $83 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,488 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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

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

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
