“Cady was an INCREDIBLE sitter for us. She went above and beyond to help us with our kitties when we were going through a tough time. I could not recommend her enough. If you have the opportunity to book with her, I would 1000% recommend you do so :)”


5. Brianna S.

“Brianna is amazing! This was my first time using Rover as my kennel experiences haven’t been the best lately and knowing my boy is much happier at home I was so thankful I found Brianna! She has a great personality! Ace loves her and after getting home I can tell he was way more at ease than the past couple of times I left him in the care of others. She was punctual and sent updates and pics throughout her stay which is very comforting when you worry about your four legged baby as much as I do! She took care of our home and even left it a bit tidier than I did!! I have already booked her again and as much as I want to keep her all to myself she deserves a great review!”

“Kristen was the absolute best! She was able to help me out on short notice. I am new here and I had a family emergency. She made sure to keep me updated and sent me plenty of pictures. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again in the future!! Izzy and Gunner absolutely loved her”

About: Hello families! My name is Caitlyn Via. I am 25 years old, graduated high school June 2018. Started Rappahannock Community College my senior year of high school because they were offering a Certified Nursing Assistant and I chose to apply for the program and got accepted. I’m currently attending Rappahannock Community College for Nursing. However I have chose to apply next year because this year wasn’t my year. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid. I love any and every type of dog. I love dogs but also love so many other animals. Just trying to get some extra cash for college. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! Can’t wait to work with the animals! Message me ! Hello! Im so grateful for this app because it give me the opportunity to hang out with animals I love. I’ve been taking care of animals since I can remember. My parents always had a dog when growing up along with horses,hamsters and cats. I will happily visit your pets in the comfort of their own home and take them to their favorite spots. Thank you so much for the opportunity to take care of your fur babies ❤️ I always ask what the normal routine is and for all information regarding medical or behavioral issues so I can take best possible care of your fur babies.
