“Allegra was amazing!! Probably the best dog sitter we've ever had. Very communicative, flexible, and on top of things (plus my dogs loved her). If you want to have a stress-free time, you should totally hire Allegra to watch your pets. I know that if I ever need a sitter in the future, she is going to be who I go to first.”
“Rosemary did a fantastic job with our dog while we were at our son's college graduation. She also helped with watering plants and getting the mail. She spoiled our dog with attention. Will book her again.”
“Allison did a great job taking care of our cat, Hiccup over several days and nights! Allison was responsive, responsible and provided great updates throughout our trip! Our house looked great upon our return and we look forward to having Allison look after Hiccup in the future!”
“Rachael was amazing with my fur babies. It is so hard to find someone to trust but Rachael really made me feel at ease while on my trip, and my dogs made a new bff. We will definitely be booking with her again <3”
“Stephanie did an amazing job. I enjoyed getting the daily updates and pictures, I can tell my pup had a great time! She also kept great care of my home! Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve grown up in a home with multiple pets and have extensive experience caring for animals. Over the years, neighbors and friends have trusted me to care for their pets while they were away. I’m also a four-time foster parent with the Rockingham-Harrisonburg SPCA, where I’ve cared for animals in need and helped prepare them for adoption. I currently work full-time during the week, but I’m fully available on weekends to give your furry family my complete attention and care! I’m available anytime after 5:00 PM on Fridays through Sundays. I’m a true animal lover and will care for your furry family members as if they were my own. I prioritize being present and attentive to their needs, making sure they always feel safe and supported—wherever they are, I’m right there with them.
About: I am pet cpr and first aid certified. I have experience caring for dogs in my work setting as a nanny. I’ve had the privilege to work in a few homes with dogs that I have helped look after. I provided walks, feeding, play and entertainment I currently work part time and have plenty of time to be able to check in on your pets and provide the quality of care they deserve and that you hope for. I strive to learn about your pets favorite toys, activities and routine. I want to make sure your pet is happy, comfortable and safe at all times in the environment that makes them the happiest. I am happy to crate your pets if they find comfort and it’s a part of their routine or hang out with them if they free roam the home. I always ask pet parents provide me with a little ‘get to know’ note or email about their pet/s so I can provide the same level of care as you would for your pets.
“We love her so much and only use her to watch both our pups. She is so sweet and considerate. Our pups have separation issues and we never have to worry going on week long trips when she’s watching them. Life saver. (And I love that she cleans up before she leaves - such a nice touch)”
“Beth is fabulous! Took great care of my special-needs guy, keeping in great contact with us and allowing me to feel confident while we were away that he was being taken great care of!”
“This was my first time booking with Melinda and she exceeded all our needs, especially when my dog had a bad day health wise. I took the longest vacation in my adult life and overseas as well, she gave me peace of mind I needed to enjoy my trip. 1000% would rebook and recommend her wholeheartedly.”
About: I have owned my dog for the past 9 years, but sadly lost him to cancer this past year, so I have experience for taking care of elderly sick dogs. I have also taken care of foster dogs of all ages all throughout college! I am entrepreneur and time is super flexible for me. I am able to work with people’s crazy schedules and be there for your pets when needed! I care for any ones pets the same way I would care for mine. Always making sure that they are happy, well fed, and walked.

I try to keep a constant eye on all animals to ensure their safety and enjoyment! I always keep them entertained or snuggle up with them!
“Darlin truly is the best of the best - we have used her many times and the dogs and cat love her and we completely love her updates and her good care of the pets and our home- she leaves it cleaner than when she arrived! A true gem of a pet and house sitter.”
“McKenna is a wonderful dog sitter. She was attentive, caring, and communicative the whole time I was away from home. I received many pictures of my dog, and I could easily tell he was enjoying the time he spent with McKenna. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet or home sitter.”
“We would definitely book Lorene to housesit again! She was wonderful at communicating with us while we were gone, our dogs looked happy and well taken care of, and our house was pristine upon our arrival back home.”

Desi was an outstanding sitter for our pup while we were out of town! She was punctual, professional and very communicative. Desi spent so much time playing with our pup, took her out for many walks, and acclimated to Luna’s usual schedule . I’d book with her again in a heartbeat.
Esther was a godsend. We left our Yorkie for 8 days to travel across country and she housesat and cared for Dillon. I left extensive instructions for feeding, walks and medication and she not only followed them to a tee but also sent messages and video of each interaction. I mentioned he had started the bad habit of wanting to be hand fed, unfortunately, and she did so without question. I think she eventually broke him off it as we haven't had to do it since returning. She left the house in perfect shape. She is positive, communicative and responsible. I would highly recommend her to any pet parent.
Had a great experience with Sierra for my very needy and loving dog: Maybelline. This was my first time using Rover as I needed a last minute, overnight dog sitter on a holiday weekend and Sierra pulled through. During the time I was gone, she took Maybelline on many walks, cuddled with her, sent lots of updates with photos, videos and information about how she was doing. Sierra put me as ease so that I could focus on my trip without having to worry about my fur baby. Very professional, trustworthy and personalable. Highly recommended and cant wait to have her back!
Amelia is the BEST dog sitter we have ever had. She truly goes above and beyond in caring for our pups and home. In fact, during a heat wave while she was watching our dogs, our HVAC went out and she let us know immediately. We were able to schedule the HVAC technician to come out when she was home with our girls to get it fixed. We feel the greatest sense of relief to have someone who cares so much, looking after our pups. We would give her over 5 stars if it were possible.
We had an excellent experience and Tyler was amazing. This was the first time we had someone watch our dog in our home and Barley seemed very happy. She is very anxious when we leave and is reactive to thunder storms and dogs. We were gone a week and there were several storms and her walks took her past several dogs; Tyler handled everything extremely professionally and we came home to calm and happy pup (he left us some guidance for those times, which we will implement). He sent pictures and kept us informed on a daily basis. Tyler was very respectful of our house and we returned to it looking better than when we left. I highly recommend Tyler, without reservation. I look forward to having him watch Barley in the future. Thank you, Tyler - we greatly appreciate all you did for Barley; she misses you :).
Beth is a wonderful pet sitter. She stays at our condo with our 2 dogs. We have used her multiple times and for some longer (2 weeks) trips. The dogs are always happy to see her and I know they get lots of attention and love. Beth goes beyond expectations with communication- she replies quickly and always puts our mind at ease. We highly recommend Beth.
Even as two very anxious pet parents, Amanda did an AMAZING job with our girls and gave us a great peace of mind that they were in good hands. She was also very communicative and respectful to our pets and home. She even did things we didn’t ask like tidying up the home a bit. We will definitely be rebooking with her in the future and recommend you do too!
Kathryn was such a gem!! She was incredibly responsive, super nice, and very patient with our anxious dog (and me lol as this was the first time we had left our dog with a rover over the weekend) she told me every time she went over and every time she left! She sent me 16 pictures of our fur babies over 3 nights and we enjoyed every single one! It made me feel like I could enjoy my trip knowing they were in great hands! Also my neighbors checked in a couple of time just to make sure everything was going well and my neighbor had nothing but nice things to say about Kathryn as well!
