House Sitting Chestnut Grove

“Rosey is a conscientious and kind sitter who always makes sure your pets are well tended to — and that you feel like you can relax and have a good time!! The last time Rosey stayed at our house our dog gave her a little trouble by barking outside late at night. She handled it so well and she knew I felt terrible and even left me a cupcake so I wouldn’t feel so guilty, which is more than I could’ve possibly asked for. I highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs.”

“Lissette provided both dogsitting and housesitting services for us. She was very caring and affectionate with our two small dogs. One of our dogs, from a rescue, is very suspicious of newcomers, but she became comfortable with Lissette quickly. While we were away, Lissette provided frequent updates, including many photos and videos. We would not hesitate to ask Lissette to take care of house and of our pups again -- the pups would probably be very happy to see her, their new friend.”

“Madelyn was an absolutely wonderful sitter for my cat, Yuki! 🐾 She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated throughout my trip, which gave me total peace of mind. I came home to a very happy and well-cared-for kitty, and the house was just as I left it. I’d highly recommend Madelyn to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”

“My fiancée and I feel like we’ve hit the jackpot after adding Abi to our lives! She came to our home before our trip to meet us and our girls, ask plenty of questions, and see how the dogs responded to her presence. She is warm and patient, and even our super anxious/epileptic dog took to her quickly (a rare occurrence). She was meticulous in reviewing our care instructions for our needy crew (two dogs on several meds). She texted us pictures while we were away, asked follow up questions, and truly put our minds at ease seeing how much she cared for our girls. We can’t thank her enough for the ways she impressed us, and hope to have her return soon!”

“Maddie was absolutely awesome! She was super quick to respond and sent us lots of pics while we were away. She also left our house in great condition and Winnie was so happy when we got back! We definitely recommend her! 😊”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. My pets are like my children, and I will care for your pets the same way. I will give your pets a lot of attention by playing with them, petting them, and giving them cuddles. I will follow the owner's instructions on feeding your pet, clean up after them, and can administer meds as needed. I am available for drop-ins and dog walking three times a day. I am available for overnight care. I am a homemaker and available during the day, evening, and overnight. I have a flexible schedule. I am not able to board pets in my home at this time. I can do drop in visits, dog walks, and house sitting. I will care for your pets like my own. I will keep them safe. You can depend on me to treat your pets well. I look forward to caring for your pet. If I am staying in your home, I will keep your home tidy and clean.

“Ashley was great! She let me know when she arrived and how Buster greeted her. She kept Buster company for several hours during my longer than usual work day— preventing him from getting too anxious about being alone. You can tell Ashley is a true animal lover as well as being very conscientious and reliable. Will definitely reach out to her again for dog sitting!”

About: I have taken care of and owned many different breeds and sizes of dogs. I currently have a cat. I enjoy playing with and helping to nurture the wellbeing of animals. I leave work for lunch to go home and play wirh my cat. I dont like leaving him alone for long. I spend hrs every day with my cat. I make sure all bowls are cleaned between meals and clean water. Spend quality time walking and/or playing with pets. Make sure they have toys and bedding is clean and soft for them.

About: I've been around pets my entire life and have always grown up in a home with multiple dogs and cats alike. Whenever I'm home, I'm the primary caregiver, helping with feeding, walks, exercise, playtime, grooming, and making sure they're happy and comfortable. I've also cared for friends' dogs and cats through drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays while they were away. As a college athlete, I know how important consistency and responsibility are, and I'll care for your dog with the same attention and love I give my own. I'm currently a full-time student completing my coursework online while training as a collegiate swimmer and track athlete. My practice schedule varies throughout the year, but outside of practice I have a flexible schedule and can provide dependable care. I always communicate my availability clearly and only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to. When I'm with your pet, they'll receive my full attention and plenty of exercise, affection, and care. At this time I provide care in my clients' homes, where pets are most comfortable and can stay in their normal routines. I understand how important consistency is for animals, so I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, and any house rules you provide. I treat every home with respect, send regular updates and photos, and always make your pet's safety and well-being my top priority.

“The doggies loved her! She did a great job.”

“Emil was very accommodating and kind. He communicates very well. Our dog, Zeus, did very well at his home. He seemed to like Emil and had no issues. Thanks again for being available on short notice!”

About: I’ve grownup with family dogs my whole life. When I was 13 I started a small dog walking business around my neighborhood. When I was 16 I got my own dog who became my best friend. When I was 18 I did an internship at a dog boarding place. I’ve had experience with all kinds of doggy personalities and can’t wait to get to know your pup! I have my own pitbull mixed dog named Coco who I care for daily. We go on adventures outside and spend a lot of time cuddling. She is the most important thing to me in the world. I care deeply for animals and I take the time to get to know each animal individually because making them feel loved and safe is my main goal. I am able to bathe, give medication, etc.. if needed. I am very comfortable with all aspects of dog care.

“Definitely one of my favorite pet sitters that I have worked with since using Rover. Communicated really well throughout the stay. I got lots of picture updates. With the weather changing, he had no issue putting both dogs in sweaters. I felt so confident that they were receiving the best care possible.”

Lydia J.

“Zach was a new sitter to our family and I am so glad we met him through Rover! He took the absolute best care of our dog and cats, and our house, while we were away for a few days. It was so nice knowing our furry family members were in great hands. He definitely treated them like his own and I have a feeling they're going to miss him now that we're home! We can't wait to have Zach back again!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience caring for a variety of animals, including puppies, senior dogs, and pets rehabbing from surgery. I also have experience with cats, kittens, and even farm animals like goats, sheep, donkeys, and horses. Whether your pet needs medication, light grooming, or to stick to a specific exercise routine, I’m here to help. Having volunteered with the SPCA and completed their dog walking training, I always prioritize your pet's safety and happiness, working to make them feel comfortable and secure in my care. As I'm currently on the job hunt after graduating from Virginia Tech, pet sitting through Rover is my top priority. This allows me the flexibility to dedicate my time fully to caring for pets, ensuring they get the attention, exercise, and care they need while also giving me the chance to do something I truly enjoy. In my care for pets, I prioritize creating a comfortable and safe environment. For dogs, I ensure plenty of exercise and playtime, tailoring activities to their energy levels and needs. I maintain a clean space, provide fresh water, and follow specific feeding schedules. If administering medication is required, I do so with care and attention. For cats, I create cozy resting spots and engage them with interactive play, ensuring they feel secure and entertained. Additionally, I keep open communication with pet owners to update them on their pet's well-being, making adjustments to routines as needed to ensure their furry friends feel loved and cared for.

“Victoria is so attentive, communicates well, and is caring and fun for my dog to feel comfortable when we are away!”
