“Absolutely amazing! She took great care of our pup and sent pics of him playing and having a good time. She played a lot with him and made sure he had a great stay”

“We hit the jackpot with Brandee! She is extremely warm and generous, and it is very obvious that she loves dogs very much! Our girls had a wonderful time, and they ran around the backyard so much that they were all tuckered out when they got home. We will use her again without hesitation.”

“Bari is the best! She is the only person who’s been able to keep our skittish dog calm and happy when we are gone. It gives us such peace of mind knowing he’s being loved and spoiled while we are gone! Thank you Bari!”

“Annie is really sweet. Took good care of my big fur baby who was very anxious and it was his first time staying away from home but it turned out great! Thanks Annie!”

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! Even tho I am new to the rover app I’ve been the go to pet sitter for friends and family for about 7 years now . I am constantly around animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you're away! I am available for drop ins or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable! I am mostly available Monday / Thursday after 6 pm , and fully available Friday / Sunday for boarding or drop ins , but could most definitely accommodate different times I currently don’t have any puppy’s of my own . I have a fenced yard for your puppy to play and explore and I also live blocks away from 2 separate parks where we could go on walks
“Achara took care of my little man for a couple days when I went out of town. She sent me updates throughout his stay, with pictures. It seemed like he had a great stay with her family and their dogs. I appreciate everything Achara did for me and the little pup!”

“Tammi was great with my reactive German Shepherd. She sent me photos and let me know how he was doing daily. Communication was great. I appreciated that she was available on short notice. Highly recommend her! Will book again! Thanks!”

“This was my first time leaving Neffi with a sitter and first experience with Rover.com. Irina provided a clean environment and safe yard for Neffi to play. I would like to thank Irina for her excellent communication, photos, and professionalism. Irina did a great job following Neffi's sleep and feeding schedule, so that there was no break in schedule when Neffi returned home. Irina definitely made my first experience a great experience. I would refer her to friends and family! Thank you, Shalanda”


“Cecilia was amazing! She came to the rescue when our original sitter had to cancel literally the day before drop off. This was our first time using Rover, so we were nervous leaving our dog and cat with someone new for an entire week, but meeting Cecilia immediately put as at ease. She was so warm, kind, and flexible with our drop off time. It was immediately evident they'd be in good hands and our Calvin even bonded a bit with one of her cats. Getting photos/videos everyday was super nice and we could tell they were very comfortable. She updated us on how they were doing everyday (Calvin didn't eat much the first couple days, but settled in). It was a great experience and if we need to use Rover in the future, we'll definitely be hoping Cecilia is available again!”

“Hana was such a sweet pet sitter! I was very worried about leaving my dog as she’s 15 years old and never was left alone with anyone not my parents. Hana took such great care of her my dog felt safe and at home the whole time! She basically had her own summer camp adventure of her own! I highly recommend Hana as she also had consistent updates which was very assuring to me that my pet was in great hands. Thank you again Hana!”

“Michele & her family were truly lovely& treated my Bella so well while I was away on vacation. I did a meet& greet prior to leaving her which I appreciated. I received plenty of updates and photos while I was away! Bella seemed super happy in the pictures on her walks and when I picked her up after my trip. I can tell she received plenty of love while I was away which makes my dog mom heart so happy! Thank you again!”


“Michael was fantastic!!! Our dogs can be a little high maintenance and Michael handled them with ease and they immediately took to him. He was warm and sent pictures of them hanging out at his house and on lovely walks. We would highly recommend him!!! Thank you! Maraka”

“Thank you Demi! We had a last minute need for a sitter and Demi saved the day. She even fit in a meet and greet so we could make sure it was a good fit. This helped us feel so much more at ease. We got daily updates and photos and were so grateful to see Khrush was made to feel right at home. We will definitely book with Demi again! Also, our pup came home very tired… which any Aussie parent can appreciate. Ha!”
“My dog Oreo had a great two weeks with Marilee and Joe. Oreo had loads of fun playing and wrestling with their dog Zuko who is a great role model for my 3 year old pup. The entire family welcomed and played with Oreo. He even got to go visit the river to swim! 😊 🐕 💗 💦 Marilee was great with communication and sent photos of my happy pup! Lol! He had such a great time I was sort of worried that Oreo would be in withdrawal when we got home without all of their company and attention! We are planning on having Oreo visit again when we go out of town.”

“This was my first experience with Rover. I needed to go out of town for a night and left my Husky/Rottweiler puppy Ziggy, for Noelle to watch. He came home calm and so well behaved. I’m definitely checking with her next time I need help with my pup!”

“Roy was incredible. 5 stars isn't enough! I panicked when our dog sitter cancelled the morning we were supposed to leave for our family vacation but luckily we found Roy. Our dog can be a bit of a handful. This was our first time going away and leaving our dog with someone so I was a little nervous but I would leave our dog with Roy any day. I can't even put into words our gratitude.”

“I had a mix up with other care and Katherine was able to accommodate Tashi over Christmas in a pinch! I felt super comfortable with her caring for Tashi and her two resident dogs made Tashi feel like she was on a 4 day long play date! Can’t recommend enough. Thank you, Katherine”

Colonial Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Our husky dog has stayed for a week while we were on vacation. Marcie has taken great care of our dog by waking him daily and keeping an eye on him while he was outside in the backyard, since our husky has a tendency to find any way to escape in search of new adventures. Marcie also provided daily updates with pictures of our dog to let us know how he’s doing. Thank you for providing a great stay for our dog!
Hana was really wonderful with my baby! I asked her to keep me updated as this was my first time using a babysitter. Through her kind actions I was impressed and assured knowing my baby boy was loved and taken care of while I was away! I definitely will be using her again!

Cecilia was incredibly attentive to our two boys. Our dogs take topical and oral medications which Cecilia was able to administer. I felt comfortable leaving them with her for a weekend trip and she made sure to send me updates throughout the day. Will definitely rebook her for other trips!
