“Haley was easy to communicate with and reassured this nervous fur mama throughout my trip.

Loved receiving photos and updates. Thanks, Haley!”

“Emilia is loving and kind to all animals, big or small! She has had dogs her entire life, and she welcomed a cat into her home a few years ago.

She has good knowledge of how to care for pets and is dedicated to their well being. I highly recommend her!”


14. Erin & Matthew K.

“First time using ROVER, First time leaving my special needs lil boy since his adoption in Jan 20, 2023. Brisket was born blind, and I always refer to myself as his seeing eye hooman. We have a very special bond ♥️ Matthew and Erin were absolutely amazing! They went above snd exceeded all my expectations... Brisket was showered with attention, they took him outside in my fenced in backyard and played with him,and continued playing inside. I received daily messages, pictures and videos that just melted my heart and made me feel much relief knowing brisket was receiving excellent care, and attention. Upon arriving home, my house was spotless, bedsheets were changed... Matthew and Erin have set very high standards in petcare, housesitting. They will be my only choice and preference in all furure care. This young couple deserve a much higher rating, but 5:stars is all thats offered!!”


15. Aelish C.

“We love Aelish! She’s the first person outside of friends/family to stay with our dogs overnight and made us feel so much better with her multiple updates and photos. She even gained some trust from our shy/anxious dog, which isn’t easy. We hope to be rebooking her in the future!”


16. Lawdy L.

“Lawdy was wonderful! She stayed at the house all weekend and took such great care of our babies. We will absolutely reach out to her again in the future. Thanks, Lawdy!”


17. Kimberly L.
About: Hello, my name is Kim, and I have spent most of my life in Roanoke, VA along with a few years in Florida. I am available full-time to care for your pets. I have extensive experience with larger dogs, having raised a Rottweiler, Cane Corso, and now a Golden Retriever. Previously, I worked at City Dogs in SW Roanoke, giving me experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes. Although I started by pet-sitting for family, I now have my own home with a fenced-in backyard, allowing me to care for more dogs. As a full-time online student at Virginia Western, I am home most of the time, providing flexible pick-up and drop-off times. While I prefer not to do pick-ups/drop-offs before 8 AM and after 10 PM, I understand that flights can be delayed and other circumstances arise, so I strive to accommodate your needs. For meet-and-greets, I try to be as flexible as possible, scheduling around my busy times to ensure a calm environment for your pet. Requirements: To ensure the health and safety of all pets in my care, I require up-to-date vaccination records for all dogs. This is non-negotiable, as the well-being of all our guests is our top priority. My own pets vaccination records are available for your review on her . Feeding Schedule: Feeding times are typically around 7-8 AM and 6-7 PM, with an additional lunchtime feeding at 12-1 PM for those who eat three times a day. I am happy to adhere to your pet’s specific feeding schedule. Dogs are fed separately to prevent accidents, and I allow an hour of rest after eating to prevent bloating. Please inform me of any allergies, as I provide a variety of treats and enjoy making frozen lick pads. What to Bring: Please bring your dog’s food to avoid upsetting their stomach with a sudden change in diet. I do have extra food and I have my pup so we always have food just in case! Additionally, bringing a dog bed, blanket, or toys that smell like home can help them settle in. I have extra bowls, beds, and toys, so don’t worry if you can’t bring everything. While I don’t have crates, you’re welcome to bring one if your dog is crate-trained or prefers to sleep in it. Daily Routine: My goal is to keep the dogs happy and stimulated. We aim for 8-10 hours of outdoor play and socialization, with indoor cool-down periods to prevent overheating. I also play soothing music to help anxious dogs relax. Treats are given after cool-down periods, and we use this time to practice commands and keep them mentally engaged. Important Note: I do not accept dogs or puppies who are not up to date on vaccinations!! The well being of our guests is our priority! We do not want to risk any sick pups! I am also privately insured through Pet Care Insurance or PCI. For visits, please use the Ring doorbell rather than knocking, as it helps keep the dogs calm. We look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! I stay at home pretty much 24/7. I don’t work a job other than pet sitting. I am accepting dogs all days of the week! I have my own four bedroom house. The house has three empty rooms in case of boarding which I do let dogs on furniture. Also, if I don’t have a lot of dogs we all usually pile into one room. I have a fenced in backyard as well.

20. Mary M.

“Mary did a great job taking care of our pup and our home. Our dog can get a bit anxious , it it was good to know that she was in such great care. I would highly recommend Mary and plan to use her services again in the future!”
