“Samantha is fantastic! We have enlisted her help a few times now and she’s wonderful. I highly recommend reaching out to her to help you watch your pet! She has come by our home a few times and can be trusted!”

“Ciara stopped by to visit Allora while we were gone. She played fetch with Allora and loved on her for us. We really appreciate her help! And the pictures Ciara sent were adorable! Thank you!”

“Having a 19 year old cat, we did not want to leave her with just anyone while we were anyway. Daniel was willing to come by for a meet and greet to make sure he was a good match. He was excellent to work with for set up and came by on schedule and spent time feeding and providing company in our absence. Daniel provided pictures for each visit which was comforting. If you are looking for someone who is dependable and friendly with your pet, he is your person.”

“Alex took such great care of Nellie, sending updates & photos and going above and beyond snuggling with her and taking her on good walks. So glad I found him!! Nellie has a new best friend”
“As always, Katherine is a joy and takes such great care of our little kitty. I cannot say enough good things about her. Definitely recommend her, and we always choose her whenever we’re going out of town.”


“I highly recommend Fernanda as a dog walker. She is reliable, always on time, and communicates exceptionally well. She responded to my request quickly and made the entire process easy and stress-free. I appreciate her professionalism and dependability, and I always feel confident that my dog is in good hands.”

“Nazeeya is a super kind, thoughtful dog sitter who made sure to ask all the important questions to be able to care for Baby in the best way. She has a true love for animals and sent very cute updates of Baby so I could see how he was doing while I was away. I would recommend Nazeeya to anyone who needs a loving, experienced animal care taker!”

“Hannah was lovely - she dropped in on my dog within the windows/times I asked for, she followed my instructions, and gave my dog the attention he needed while respecting my home. Also was very nice to write little recaps in the report cards with cute photos of my dog. Would hire her again :)”

“Yiyi is awesome! She took care of our two pups and our cat three times a day for seven days. We got detailed reports on each visit accompanied by excellent pictures of our pups and cat showing them eating, going on their walks, etc. When we need someone to watch our furry babies again, we will definitely reach out to Yiyi.”


About: As someone who grew up in a "dog home" I'm very comfortable with a wide variety of dogs both big (Fred, German Shepard) and small (Abby, Cocker Spaniel). Over the last 4 years I've been personally training and raising my well-behaved resident couch-potato, Leo. I bring that same enthusiasm and kindness to every cat I meet as well (I've even fostered a few kittens!). I’m detail-oriented, timely, and mindful of existing routines such as walks, meals, medications, or any additional special instructions. I regularly send photos as updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I'm currently working from home part-time, so I'll have lot's of availability during the day. I can also do late-night pet checks! I'm detailed oriented when it comes to your pet(s) and their unique needs. I can accommodate to make sure each pet is shown the attention and care they need. I have a fenced in yard and a resident couch-potato. Meet-and-greets required for any overnight guests.

About: I am a dependable, caring, and patient animal lover with experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy looking after your pets, and I always treat every animal like my own. I am comfortable with dog walking, feeding, playtime, administering basic care, and keeping pets on their normal routines to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I also work in healthcare, which has taught me responsibility, attentiveness, and compassion. I am currently a full-time college student home for the summer and work part-time, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable and attentive pet care throughout the week. I am available for dog walking, drop-in visits, pet sitting, feeding, playtime, and check-ins during mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends depending on the day. I understand how important consistency and routine are for pets, and I will always make sure your dog or cat receives plenty of attention, exercise, care, and companionship while you are away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand that every dog and cat has a different personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I will carefully follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and special care requests provided. I am dependable, attentive, respectful of clients’ homes, and committed to creating a calm, safe, and loving environment for your pets at all times.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have nearly 7 years of dog sitting experience starting in middle school. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities and I pride myself on being extremely attentive, reliable, and detail oriented with every pet. I have experience handling multiple dogs at once including caring for up to five dogs for 7+ days, so I’m very comfortable with both longer stays in higher-energy households. I treat every dog like my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I also provide consistent updates so you can feel confident and not ease while you’re away. I’m a student at Virginia Tech with a flexible schedule, typically having at most two classes a day. Outside of class, I spent most of my time at home, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. My routine makes it easy for me to incorporate walks, feeding, playtime, and check-in consistently. I’m able to adapt to each pets needs and schedule, whether that means early mornings, midday visits, or evening care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a pet friendly apartment with a fence dog area, so dogs have a safe place to get outside and play. I’m very attentive and make sure pets are always supervised and cared for based on their specific needs and routines. I also keep owners updated regularly so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Leigh came and did check-ins with our senior cat for a week. Our cat has some medications and special food requirements and Leigh took it in stride. I also really appreciated her communication and timely updates! Coordinating meet and greet and check-in times was smooth. We will definitely be booking with Leigh again!”

“Teju was very caring and responding when she took care of Sola. She made a pre-visit to make herself familiar to my dog and communicated so closely. Thank you, Teju, for your kind care!”

About: I have worked in pet hotels over the past four years caring for high volumes of dogs and cats of varying needs and breeds. From diabetic pets, to incredibly picky eaters there is little I haven't encountered. The desire to work closer and refine the details of my work is what has lead me to Rover, so I can give dedicated personalized care to every pet that comes my way. Hablo Español. My pet care routine is the backbone for the day, I schedule my day around my pets, so they are comfortable and I don't miss anything. My home is seldom empty, as I live with my family there's always someone to keep your pets with human company. My dog while on the more mellow side is more than happy to have a window watching partner. I can accommodate for crates, and have a fenced in yard.

About: I’ve been working at Dogtopia of Manassas for about a year, gaining daily hands-on experience with dogs of all kinds. I also have three fur babies of my own—two cats and one dog—so caring for animals is a big part of my everyday life and something I truly love. I currently work at Dogtopia of Manassas, but I make sure to schedule my time so I can still give pets plenty of attention and care. Whether it’s before or after my shifts or on my days off, I’m dedicated to being reliable and making sure your pets feel loved, comfortable, and well taken care of. I am very attentive when it comes to pet care and always prioritize safety, comfort, and overall well-being. I follow routines carefully, provide a safe and clean environment, and make sure each pet gets the right balance of exercise, attention, and rest. I also stay alert to any changes in behavior to ensure they remain happy and healthy while in my care.
“Emily was awesome and super reliable. It was my first time leaving my new dog for a trip and she really put my mind at ease. She is super communicative and took awesome photos of my dogs! 100% recommend her.”
