“Bruce took amazing care of our cat while we were on vacation. In addition to food/water, our cat required drop in visits twice daily for anti-seizure medication, which Bruce handled with ease. His constant communication, including many pictures, gave us peace of mind during our trip. Thank you Bruce!”
“Karina is excellent. She went above and beyond taking care of Nikki during the drop in visits. We will definitely use Karina again to care for Nikki the next time we travel. I strongly recommend Karina.”
“Catie was excellent. We booked last minute for dog-walking, because our regular sitter canceled last minute. Catie met with Gnocchi beforehand and was very professional and reassuring. No issues, always very prompt with check-in notes and photos. Would absolutely book with Catie again.”
“Brinkley had such a great time with Alex. I could tell they played a lot of fetch because Brinkley was sleeping the rest of the day until I came home from work. She made a point to try and meet Brinkley before coming to take care of her to make sure she knew what my girl needed.”
“Alyssa was a great pet-sitter for our 3 cats. One of our cats needs medication and she was able to successfully give it to her each visit. She also went above and beyond in caring for all of our cats and spent extra time with them while we were gone. They were very happy when we got home! I would definitely book Alyssa again.”
“Jen is a great sitter as always and is our go to sitter! She does a great job keeping Nico’s litter and food areas clean, and sends cute videos at every visit! Definitely recommend”
“Jaqueline did an amazing job watching our cat, Juniper! I was nervous to leave Juniper while we were on vacation but Jaqueline made me feel so calm and confident. I got adorable pictures everyday and an update. Jaqueline was wonderful to work with and took great care of our little Juniper!”
About: I’m a mother of 3 children and two fur babies, a Labrador and a tuxedo cat. In addition to caring for my own pets over the years, I have some experience with foster care as well as veterinary assistance. My schedule is flexible as I am a stay at home parent. Daytime is best but I am also available for night check ins and weekends. My pets are very friendly but I will respect the wishes of the pet owner on how much exposure they prefer their pet to have to other people or pets, as well as any other safety concerns they may have. I live on a low traffic cul-de-sac street, ideal for walking.
“Heather was awesome and someone who is trustworthy kind and has a great attitude and love for animals. My cat was very well taken care of and i will forever be so grateful. This is the first time i had a cat sitter and i am so so thankful i found heather in time. Cannot recommend her enough”
“Wonderful sitter! Communicative and takes great care of Kimahri. Also cleaned up a mess he made that was my fault (I forgot to hide the trash can before I left) which i was super grateful for”
About: I have over 16 years of experience caring for animals and have lived with pets my whole life. I have experience sitting for cats and dogs. I have experience training puppies and caring for senior cats that require daily medication. I am an artist with a home studio. My schedule is flexible to fit pet care into my routine since I create my own schedule. My home is set up for cats with huge windows for bird watching and cozy beds. I also have sufficient space if needed to create separate spaces for cats.
About: Hi! My name is Katharine, and I’m currently a social work student working toward my bachelor’s degree with a passion for helping others, which includes animals! I’ve always loved being around pets and understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and caring to look after them. I’ve owned my dog for the past 10 years, which has given me hands-on experience with daily pet care, routines, exercise, and providing lots of love and attention. I also regularly dog sit and cat sit for my neighbors, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, needs, and routines. I’m currently a college student out for the summer, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I have open availability 7 days a week. I’m able to be flexible with walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, and playtime to meet each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medication if needed, playtime, and any house rules or routines your pet is used to. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and supervision while keeping the home clean and respectful. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away.
About: Great to meet you! I have over 14 years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals ranging from dogs to cats to snakes, bearded dragons, and even ants (yes I know)... and the list goes on! Ever since I can remember, I've always loved animals (dogs especially). To fulfill my wish to have a pet, I began volunteering at a local animal shelter and would frequently visit just to spend time with some of the animals and give them some love. There, I was able to learn how to better care for our furry friends, both elderly and young. Being able to play with them was just a bonus for me! While your dog is with me they will have access to a big fenced yard to play in and enjoy. If you'd prefer them to stay in their natural environment, that's fine too! Whatever makes them most comfortable, I'm happy to provide. Every pet's needs & wants are different, which I take the time to acknowledge when caring for them. My top priority is making sure your pets are safe, loved, and content while you're away. Feel free to message me if you have any questions and I'd be happy to help! Thanks for considering me! I love to start our mornings off with a nice hike or walk at my nearby beach, typically about 2 miles. The afternoons will do a shorter walk and have some outdoor playtime. Ultimately, our day will be reflective of what your pups specific needs are. Working from home, your pets will get plenty of time and attention in my care! While boarding, they will have access to roam and play about in a fenced in yard under my supervision. Rest assured, I will take care of your babies as if they were my own. Making sure also to give you daily updates so you know your pup is well cared for!
“Andrea is wonderful! She was able to help on a very short notice and even extended the time of her visit. She was so sweet and understanding of my crazy 6mo old puppy! We can’t wait to use Andrea again”
“Aisaia comes often to check in on my dogs while I’m at work. He’s always reliable, on time, and spends a little extra time with my dogs. I would definitely recommend him and will continue to book with him!”
“Zach is a great drop in visit sitter, provides quick responses and a great summary of his drop in with my cat. He was patient with my cat, slowly earning her trust to coax her out to play and eat.”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Woodbridge is $25

I would strongly recommend Abigail to everyone! She was extremely thorough when asking about all of our pet’s needs. She was prompt, communicative, and exceptionally friendly with us. Plus, it is so apparent how much compassion and love she has for animals. Will definitely be hiring Abigail in the future. 10/10.
Carrie was a fantastic sitter for our two cats. She played with high-energy kitten every time she visited, and she made sure to pay careful attention and give love to our older cat as well. Both of our cats seemed very happy and content when we returned home!
Catie was excellent. We booked last minute for dog-walking, because our regular sitter canceled last minute. Catie met with Gnocchi beforehand and was very professional and reassuring. No issues, always very prompt with check-in notes and photos. Would absolutely book with Catie again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Woodbridge on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,207 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Woodbridge. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Woodbridge stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Woodbridge. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
