“Kayla was absolutely the best! We had a great peace of mind while we were away, knowing that Kayla was taking excellent care of our pets. She communicated frequently and was always on time. We can’t thank her enough and plan on continuing to have her provide care for us.”
“So grateful for Karisa's excellent care. I booked her already twice and my cat(s) was/were in great hands. She was punctual and reliable, and was able to give my cat her medication. She sent me daily updates and photos, which helped ease my mind while I was away. I'll definitely be using her services again.”
“Jacob is awesome! He walked Chip and Ellie and made sure to give our cat, Cowboy, attention too. He kept us updated with quick communication throughout the visit and left a detailed review afterward. He has super positive energy and our animals were so excited to meet him during our initial meet & greet. I would absolutely hire Jacob again and highly recommend him.”
“Paxton did a great job with our senior dog, Cash. She was very reliable and sent us updates on her walks with him while we were traveling. Would definitely use her again and recommend her for your pet needs!”
“Laryssa was amazing! We had a last minute change to our care in that one of our cats needed medication. Without hesitation she had no problem giving it to our cat. We also had an issue with one of our cats feeders. Laryssa had a solution that completely worked and took care of the situation easily. I have never felt so at ease leaving my cats with someone. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Daniela provided excellent service and top notch communication. I had to schedule service with short notice and she went above and beyond to ensure I had an awesome experience.”
“Tammy was flexible with our home renovation/painting mess while dropping in to take care of Lyo. She kept us updated with photos and feedback. Lyo is lucky to have had Tammy visit. :)”
“Hilary did an awesome job taking care of my cat while I was out of town for the holidays! She checked in with him and sent me full and detailed updates each time. She also went above and beyond in taking care of my place and making sure that it was incredibly clean when I came home!”
“Pam took care of our cats on short notice and did a wonderful job. She provided detailed updates with multiple pictures. One of our cats has asthma and she also managed the inhaler very well. We highly recommend Pam!”
“Danniellie did a great job visit my cats while I was out of the country. They seemed happy with their visits and not stressed at all upon my return. I would absolutely request that she visit my cats again in the future!”
About: I took care of my black lab for 8 years, including feeding, giving medications, bathing and walking. I raised my cat from 6 weeks forward, cleaning litter boxes, feeding, giving attention to/playing with, and giving any medicines needed. I currently have a 4 and 5 year old cat. I also regularly volunteered at the cat Cafe in Murfreesboro, TN before I relocated to the area. There I was responsible for playing with the cats, feeding them and cleaning litter boxes. I have worked at an animal hospital where I have gained knowledge about medical situations and some medication giving. I am also a professional toy fixer! I am currently in between jobs so I do have mostly open availability until this changes or if I have to block some time off for an interview. I am willing to stay as long as needed to keep your furbabies happy and make sure they are fully taken care of. Being sure to leave your home exactly how it was when I arrived.
“Amy helped me at the last moment to take care of my 18yo dog Sky due to a military obligation. She was caring, communicative, and loving to Sky. I WILL definitely use her again. Thanks!!!”
About: I am searching for dog walking positions in Leesburg and Ashburn. What sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is I will connect a strong bond with your pet, make sure they are as comfortable as possible, and I will give your pet exactly what they need. I will make sure they are happy, healthy, safe and having fun. I do have experience in giving medication (orally) if your pet needs it. I have pet sat for both dogs and cats before. I also have had a couple years of dog walking, and I also have a pet of my own. I have worked at a doggy daycare so I have experience with a whole mix of dog breeds of all ages. I am hardworking, efficient, and friendly. I really love dogs and cats and I hope I can be a perfect fit for both you and your pet. I am pretty flexible at the moment! Ideally I can work Monday through Saturday from 7-6pm but I am not available to work on Sundays. I am loving, caring and patient with the animals. I provide fun that comes with being a sitter. I also have a great building trust connection with the animals.
About: I’ve grown up with all sorts of feathered, finned, clawed, and pawed friends! So I have been providing animal care most of my life. I am a big animal lover and believe pets are important members of the family! I am able to care for pets extensively on the days that I am off, walking, feeding and giving them plenty of playtime and belly rubs! I prefer to take care of pets in my clients home and do my best to give their pet care that is representative of their regular routine and in a familiar place to them to keep them as comfortable and happy as possible!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and I also own one myself, so I’m very experienced and comfortable taking care of yours. Available Monday through Friday before 2:00 PM and for overnight stays. I’m very flexible, so if you need a specific hour, just reach out and we can work it out! We have a fenced backyard and plenty of toys, plus a fluffy carpet and couches where they’re welcome to lounge. My dog is very independent and likes his own space, so he won't bother yours. If your dog wants to play, he's happy to join in.
About: Hello there! I am currently open for new clients! My full time client just left us to head out west. We will miss them badly, but look forward to bringing on other pets. I would love to care for your pets as my own! We do have a small Chihuahua mix named Fabel. She is great with all dogs and cats. I also have to be the ones that are 10 and 6 that are great little helpers. We have trails close by with lots of grassy areas to run around. We love long walks, play, & cuddles. No rules, your sweet pups are allowed wherever they’d like to go, but I do make sure all your rules and schedules are followed :) My weekly routine is simple. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to work around your schedule and attend to all your sweet pups needs I follow your schedule provided, but I also allow your pup to lead the way. If they want to play, we play. We take walks. Cuddles. Whatever your pup is used to and likes we’ll follow along.
About: I've had pet dogs for nearly 20 years now, and I love being around them! I love being active and exercising with my dog and I'm a big believer that a well-exercised dog is a well behaved dog. I work full-time, but I am available late afternoon into the evenings and all day/night on the weekends. In some cases I might be able to do morning walks. My dog is house trained and has freedom to roam in the home. The house is void of anything that could endanger a pet. My dog is only here half of the time, so in many instances, your dog will be the only one here.
“Liz is so great! She’s super communicative, always letting us know when she’s on her way and how our pups are doing, and also if any issues come up. She typically stays longer than she’s required to and our girls love playing with her!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Waxpool
Sofia was great!! There was a mixup with addresses in the system and she did not hesitate to turn around and go to the right address, which was 15 minutes the opposite way that she went. She made sure my pup went out, got his meds, and was back happy inside. Definitely recommend her!
Jacob is awesome! He walked Chip and Ellie and made sure to give our cat, Cowboy, attention too. He kept us updated with quick communication throughout the visit and left a detailed review afterward. He has super positive energy and our animals were so excited to meet him during our initial meet & greet. I would absolutely hire Jacob again and highly recommend him.
Kayla B was great with our dogs! She showed up right on time and gave them lots of attention during her drop in's. It was the first time ever leaving them alone overnight and just doing a drop in but it went great!!!! Kayla was great and we will definitely use her again!!!
Sean went above and beyond taking care of our pup. Our girl absolutely LOVES Sean and he deserves 6/5 stars. He provided us plenty of updates to feel at ease while we were away AND was so flexible considering it was a little last minute on our part since our previous plans fell through but that didn’t phase him. Genuinely a great guy. Would absolutely book again.
Kayla was exceptional in her care and attention to our two cats in our absence. Our cats immediately warmed to her. She shared updates and photos after every visit. Her care has made us realize that we are able to travel when necessary and have peace of mind that the cats will be well!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Waxpool is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $36 per visit. 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 15,227 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Waxpool. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Waxpool. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 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.
