Caitlin is an excellent pet sitter! I was very impressed with everything she did while caring for my senior dog Charlie. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing he was in good hands with Caitlin. She sent regular updates and pictures each visit. And she went above and beyond when I had to contact her last minute and add an additional evening visit and she was able to go right away. She was a true lifesaver and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, loving and trustworthy pet sitter. She is awesome!!

Kellie did a wonderful job taking care of our 2 dogs while we were out of town. One of the dogs was being difficult at first but Kelsie stayed with it and won her over.

Literally the best pet sitter we’ve ever had. Communication was super easy to set up our appointments and they took photos of our cat for us each visit. Our cat is spoiled and we appreciate everything !

We hired Heather to watch our sweet boy while we were away for Christmas, and she was AMAZING! I trusted that my fur-baby was taken care of and given all the love he needed. I highly recommend Heather to watch after your pets!!

So grateful to have Blair help us with our two big pups! We have a Rottweiler and a Pit Mix so it can be a challenge to find someone who isn't "scared" of them (even though they are harmless lovable pups). Blair was so nice to come meet them before her first visit so the girls could meet her with us there. That really gave me peace of mind to leave them in her care! Blair was also great with communication and we didn't worry one bit while we were out of town. She came to our house a few times a day so our pups could continue their routine in a place they know- instead of boarding them!! If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about your pets and is reliable, you've found that person!! Thanks for everything, Blair!!!

About: I have taken care of neighbors pets over the years while they’re out of town. Also, I have a senior dog who has gone through many surgeries and needs various pills every day and special care. I’ve always been an animal lover and thought that getting involved with Rover would be a great way to help families out with caring for their fur-babies! I am a college student who is typically unavailable during MoWe afternoons and TuTh mornings, but Friday-Sunday I am fully available and excited to take care of any dogs! I am very gentle with animals and love showing them extra affection to make them happy! I am used to being around breakable items and can be very careful to take care of the wellbeing, not just of your dog, but your house and belongings as well.

Heather did great with JT. I could tell he enjoyed her company. He appears to be more social which was one of the goals. I like how attentive she was to his needs other than providing him attention and company. She kept up to date with videos and pictures of JT which I really appreciated. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone. 😊

About: I can’t remember a time in my life when I didn’t have dogs. They’ve always been part of the family. We currently have a 5yo golden retriever and a 1yo Pomeranian, they both love to play with new fur friends. They are extremely friendly, and love other dogs. We also a huge fenced yard where they can run and play. I am a stay at home mom(I have a 2yo and a 3yo daughter) so your dog will always have someone to watch over. There is no need to worry about anything! We have a really huge fenced yard where they can run and play. I let the dogs go out as much as they want during the day, every hour or so plus we are always playing outside so they have company at all times!

About: Hello! I’ve taken care of dogs in my free time for a few years now. I love pets and giving them the love and care they need! I also have experience taking care of multiple dogs in one household, and have taken care of elderly dogs. I would love to be trusted to take care of your pet! I’m a rising Sophomore at Virginia Tech, so I would love for dog sitting to be a fun and fulfilling part time job for this summer while I’m at home. I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs 3/4 times a day depending on the clients need. I have my own car so getting to the destination safely and efficiently should never be an issue. I love to play with pets and give them the love and exercise they need, along with caring for their physical health and safety.

I can not say enough good things about Lindsey. She stepped in when my previous dog sitter left abruptly. She comes ever day twice per day to spend 15-30 minutes with my female Belgian malinois. I come home to find my dog rest, hydrated, and low energy. I trust Lindsey with my dog under any circumstances. If your choose to hire Lindsey you will be hiring a responsible and caring dog sitter.
