About: I've had taken care of animals for over 20 plus years. Im also a certified vet assistant as well. Love all animals and would love to meet yours! Im currently unemployed so I would be able to do anytime of the day. I do have 2 chihuahuas of my own as well that I absolutely adore. I unfortunately do not have a fenced in yard at my home but I do take my dogs out regularly on leash. But they also have free roam of the entire house.
About: I’ve always had a dog growing up. Dogs are life companions! I’ve taken care after my own dogs of course and family members as well. I’m the first person they call to see if I’m available to watch over their fur babies. I tend to make friends with dogs at a function quicker than I do with humans. I take care after my own animals through sickness and health and try to give them the world. They deserve the best! I am free during the week and weekend. Reach out at anytime and we can work out whatever you need for your fur baby/babies. I take care of any fur baby as if they are my own ! Depending on the owners wants and needs for their pup I will always do my best to do what they want for them.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was a teen. I currently volunteer at the animal shelter and pet-sit for friends and family when needed. I currently work from home with flexible hours so I am able to accommodate your schedule and your dogs needs whether that’s going on walks or general care. I live in a dog-friendly community with ample space and dog parks for your fur baby to run around! I can crate your dog if needed.
“Frodo and Luna were so well loved while we were away. Lindsay was wonderful, sent photos, loved on my kitties and made sure they were fed and litter cleaned.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Matisa was professional, reliable, and genuinely cared about my dog. Matisa provided regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my dog was happy, well cared for, and received plenty of attention and affection. I came home to a relaxed, healthy pup, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Matisa again. Highly recommend Matisa to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet!”
“Erica was wonderful! She was able to help us on short notice and took great care of puppy. We really appreciated her flexibility and would definitely book with her again!”
“Let me start this off by saying my animals are my babies and they are my world! From the moment this young lady walked into my home. I knew they would be in good hands! I have a house full. On this visit, Peyton was taking care of four cats and one very rambunctious dog. She handled it like a champ and my dog and my cats still look for her after her visit. I needed she was there, anything I needed to change Without batting and I she did it. She’s very warm, very loving and very responsible! My fur babies loved her! If you’re looking for someone That you can leave with your babies and not look back knowing that they are very well taken care of then definitely Peyton is your gal! We we’re gone for an extended period of time and I have never left my dog ever. Actually I don’t think she even noticed I was gone lol. We love Peyton and would love to put her in one of our suitcases and take her to Florida with us! Thank you sweetheart for doing an amazing job and I know five little fur babies that are going to miss you very much! We will Definitely spread the word and you will be our go to Gal When and if we ever come back to Virginia’💜💜”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets through spending time with my girlfriend’s cat, Boba, and helping her take care of her. I also regularly help care for my brother’s three dogs by taking them outside to use the bathroom, giving them time to play, and occasionally taking them on walks. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they are cared for. I understand the importance of being patient, attentive, and responsible when looking after someone’s pets, and I will treat your pets with the same care and attention I give to the animals in my own life. I am currently serving on active duty in the Marine Corps and stationed in Virginia. I am typically available on weekdays after 5 PM and have more flexibility on weekends. I will communicate clearly with pet parents to coordinate schedules and make sure their pets receive the attention and care they deserve. I prioritize making sure the pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have experience helping care for my girlfriend’s cat, Boba, and my brother’s three dogs. I will follow each pet parent’s instructions, pay attention to their pet’s needs, and provide regular updates. Whether we are going for walks, playing outside, or spending time together.
“Chris was fantastic! He was flexible and courteous and showed a genuine care for my dog. He also brought in some packages that arrived. I will definitely ask him next time I’m in need. My Charlie dog loves having him stop by!”
“They were amazing!! Our cats were well cared for, and we received several photos and videos of our cats :) We would heavily recommend that you go with Amanda for all your pet sitting needs!!”
About: Hi there! My name is Sam and I have experience sitting for all types of animals. From cuddly Pyrenees, and scary-smart German pinschers, to spunky chinchillas, their best cat friends, and curious pythons. I have been through partial behavioral training for dogs (and their humans), and have experience with animal hospice situations, as well as behaviorally aggressive dogs. I prefer to keep the animal's care as consistent as possible. The more details you have of your preferred method of walking, reward, or preparation habits, the better. Trust and care are my number one goals when it comes to animal sitting. Not just with the four legged babies, but with the parents as well. I know how important it is to feel comfortable with your care provider, and what a treat it is to know that you can trust someone with the care of your loved ones. Also, aren't dogs just perfect? I work for the U.S. Department of Agriculture and am currently on telework, so my weekly availability is early morning, and late afternoon. I also volunteer at the Old Dominion Humaine Society and occasionally foster for them at my house. I have one <1 year old puppy, and I have a home with a large yard but no fence. That means all foster dogs get leash walked always and there are many mind teaser toys for rainy days. I feed in crates and make it a safe space for them to decompress.
“Mariah was wonderful with our fur family. She spent time with everyone and sent pictures of happy pups/cats to me daily. I could tell the dogs were happy since they kept bringing her gifts of everything they found on the floor. Even the cats who don't trust most people came out of hiding for her. I will definitely ask Mariah to sit again.”
About: I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. From neighbors needing someone to walk their young puppies, to having to give senior cats medication, I am capable of making sure your pet feels comfortable and loved. I work from home, so I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to pet care. I can give your pet important medication before joining a meeting! I will always make sure doors are securely locked and your furry best friend has no access to anything that could be harmful to them. I'm a neat freak, after all!
About: As an avid, pet lover I will take care of your pets, as if they were my own. I love cats and dogs and other small little creatures. Currently right now I have a pretty flexible schedule working from home so I have an ability to take care of your pets during the day. I will make sure your pets are safe in my care. When we go for walks I will always have them leashed and protect them from other animals.
“Gabriela saved us in a pinch, she was always on time rocko looked happy when we returned, he would look stressed normally after being boarded. Definitely will call her again.”
About: I have taken care of dogs before and I’m currently a owner my self, I will love to take care of other dogs my self. I am currently working doing delivery on Instacart, and I have plenty of time to take care of dogs and walk them and take them to the dog park. I have a very good boy, and there’s a big dog park that can take your baby to have the best time ever, and if it is needed I can crate ur baby
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life including my own. Alongside our own dogs, my family and I have fostered many dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes and medical needs for 10 years. I love going on walks and showing your pup some love! I work full time during the week and nanny part time, with house sitting i fit drop ins into my schedule and am comfortable spending nights. I care for your animals truly as my own, whatever is best for them. Of course, whatever the client sees fit and their preferences in their home.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Widewater Beach
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 5,305 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Widewater Beach. 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 Widewater Beach. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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.
