“I'm so grateful to find Anna on Rover! She is very sweet and communicates really well which is very important to me when someone is with my babies! I highly recommend Anna if you need a pet sitter. She will really take the time to understand your pets needs.”


“Isa is an amazing sitter! She took care of my 3 kitties and house while I was away and kept me updated the whole time. My skittish cats warmed up to her right away! Would definitely book her again.”


“Tyler was great with our dog Saxon. They seemed to really enjoy each others company. We would gladly have Tyler house/dog sit again. He was very pleasant, left the house in good shape and Saxon seemed sad to see him go.”


“Naomi has done drop in visits and also house sitting for us several times and our fur babies always seem very happy and well taken care of. Can’t say enough nice things about her!”


“Sophia is a jewel. She was great with Lovey my mini Sheepadoodle. Lovey’s used to a lot of attention and is a little on the skiddish side. But they did great together. Sophia is responsible and very engaged. I returned home after 5 days and she had gotten my mail, met up a plumber I had to call and most important Lovey was happy . No issues at all. She ate every meal from day one which never happens. I will absolutely be calling Sophia again!!”


“Jadyn was great from the first time we met her! She explained all that she would do and her experience. While on our 8 day vacation she sent pictures just about everyday and checked in to let us know how our 2 dogs were doing. I have one dog who is very slow to warm up to people she doesn’t know, but she was snuggling with Jadyn within a couple days! Would highly recommend Jadyn as a pet sitter!”


“BOOK HER! Amber was very nice and took great care of my 3 cats while we were on vacay for a week. She brought in my mail, packages and left my house as clean as it was when I left. I will definitely book her in the future. She also communicated quickly and took pictures! Thank you, Amber.”

About: As a pet parent myself, I understand the worry and anxiety that can come with leaving your beloved companion in someone else’s care. That’s why I promise to treat your pet with the same love, compassion, and attention I give my own—because they’re not just animals, they’re family. I’ve been caring for pets of all shapes and sizes for over 15 years. My journey began as a kennel staff member at an animal hospital, where I learned the foundations of professional pet care and developed a deep appreciation for the trust pet owners place in their caregivers. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and other small animals—each with their own personalities, needs, and quirks. I have experience administering medication (both oral and topical), working with senior pets who need a gentler pace, and supporting animals with anxiety or special needs. Whether your furry friend needs high-energy playtime, a relaxing walk, or simply someone to sit quietly with them, I tailor my care to make them feel comfortable, secure, and loved. I’m known for being dependable, detail-oriented, and communicative—I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring hands. Whether you're away for a weekend or a few weeks, I'm here to provide peace of mind and a positive experience for both you and your pet. Because when you're not home, I want your pet to feel like they still are. I am currently a stay at home mom and have the daily flexibility to ensure your pets needs are met accordingly and to your standard! Your pet's safety and your home's security are my top priorities. I understand the trust it takes to welcome someone into your personal space, and I don’t take that lightly. I treat every home with the utmost respect—keeping things clean, secure, and just as you left them. I'm mindful, responsible, and always aim to leave both your pet and your home better than I found them. You can count on me to follow your instructions closely, respect your privacy, and keep you updated regularly. Whether it’s locking up properly, caring for houseplants, or maintaining your pet’s routine to a T, I take every detail seriously. Your peace of mind means everything, and I’m committed to creating a safe, calm environment your pet can feel comfortable in while you're away.

“Adelena was wonderful with our furry friends! We were happy with the updates we received while out of town. She even took the dogs for a hike! We would definitely invite Adelena back to our home for pet care.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs , guinea pigs , cats , and other animals since I was a small child . I’ve always loved animals and have a high and caring energy for them. I’m currently working part-time , so caring for your pets could easily fit into my schedule! Im very flexible and am eager to help you out. I maintain my pets and work on their tricks and health every day. I adore seeing them grow and develop. Their safety and health is of the most importance to me. I keep them well fed and maintained, always clean and happy! Tails always wagging!

About: I've been caring for animals for over 40 years now, both personally and professionally. My first dog FiFi was there when I was born in 1973. Ever since FiFi I've always had at least one dog through my life. I've had many cats along the way, too. I absolutely adore cats! I lost my last cat two years ago and it still saddens me greatly. He was so affectionate with me even after I had rescued him from mistreatment. He had 6 toes on both front paws! They are called polydactl or Hemingway cats. It looked like he was wearing white mittens! His name was Pyro and I miss him dearly. When I grew a little older, I was able to care for all types of animals such as rabbits, hamsters, mice, ducks, birds and fish. I love them all! I have rescued wild life and nursed them the best I could or took them to a wildlife center for help. I have raised butterflies as well! People have always told me their animals take to me very easily and quickly. I've always shared a special place in my heart for animals and a unique way of connecting with them. I could not get through life without their enjoyment and love! They really are angels with fur and paws. The most wonderful blessings! They bring so much to the table with their enormous love and loyalty. I am available for your pets full time on any given day including holidays, and extended periods of time. My schedule is open twenty four hours 7 days a week. If I'm not with one client, I am available or I can work them in together depending on the situation. I offer overnight house sitting in your home. I have one small 12 year old Toy Fox Terrier (pics of us together here!) I would have to bring with me for any overnight stays because i have no one else to watch her at the time and shes very clingy now that shes older. Shes very sweet and gets along with just about all dogs as long as they arent aggressive. She loves to play or just relax with them! She usually doesnt have an issue with cats. She has had two cats as siblings in her 11 years and that was definitely a learning process, but they did great overall! I also offer drop in and walking visits. I am able to stay for extended periods of time, or shorter stays also. I am very flexible with my time and always available unless I am with another client. I will spend quality time with your pet (no matter the type) doing what they like to do and what fits their needs. We can discuss that further! Have a wonderful day!

“Heather was awesome! My husband and I recently moved here and have a rescue that’s quite nervous of new people. Heather was patient and calm and met her a few times before sitting. She took her sensitivities in stride and gave her space the first few days. My rescue warmed up to her really quick! She did a great job of keeping with communication everyday and sent pictures of each of my animals each day. We will definitely be using her again in the future as all 4 of my girls LOVED her.”

About: Hi! My name is Alexis, I am 27 years old, and I have been around animals my entire life. Growing up I helped my dad with training his rabbit dogs and attending to their needs while he was at work or etc. I am born and raised in Amherst, VA. I own my own townhouse in Madison Heights. Although, the area is not fenced in there is a nice big yard for your fur-baby to get plenty of exercise and exposure to the sun and fresh air!! There is sidewalks in the neighborhood that makes it easy for taking walks. I am here to care for your fur-baby as you would. I will pet, feed, walk, play, brush attend to your fur-baby's needs. You and your fur-baby will be happy with my services. I do work 40 hours a week from home which allows me to have more time at home to attend to your fur-baby. Your dog/cat will be able to roam freely in the house unless otherwise requested. I do not work weekends, so my schedule is very open and flexible. I can easily crate your dog as needed. All dogs are walked on leashes when we go for walks. I respect your wishes in my home and your home.

“We enjoyed having Kakie as a sitter. Our 13 year old dog takes awhile to warm up to people. She buddied up to Kakie which made us feel happy. She played with her, walked her and kept her company plus left the house in good shape.”
