“Megan is caring and professional, a fantastic help, and a patient kitty whisperer! We were gone for the holidays and she even brought in a box delivery we didn't know about.”

About: Hello, I’m Cassidy, I’ve had dogs of my own and many years of helping family and friends with their animals. Animals as we know are the best and I’d be more than happy to help anyone out with theirs. I’m currently working a job at night, therefore throughout the day, I am free and ready to help anytime! I can be flexible and work around your schedules and mine. Your pet is my top priority when taking this job and I will ensure a safe and fun visit for your fur babies. I will listen to what needs to be done and complete the task.
“Amazing Rover! She is very responsive! She let my dogs out for potty break and made sure they had food and water while we were gone for the day. Definitely recommend and will use her again :)”
About: I've cared for all kinds of animals throughout my life from my own animals to my friends and families. I always was the first of my siblings to volunteer to help feed, walk, watch over, bathe, and learn about animals and it's since been a passion of mine. I work part-time so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets in my free time. I the sweetest cat,Olly, so I definitely get creative with indoor/outdoor activities. I have a variety of cat toys that your animal will have access to (depending on your preferences), puzzles and home made interactive games so your pup will constantly be entertained and hopefully tuckered out when returning home!
“Jenna was so great with my 2 cats! Their food, water, and litter was well taken care of and the cats seemed happy when I returned after almost 2 weeks away. Even my hidey cat came out for Jenna! I’d definitely rebook her in the future.”
“Thank you for checking in on my sweet pups!! I knew they were in great hands, and i received lots of adorable pictures! They even gave my cat, Nori, some love!! Will definitely book with you again!”
“Melanie and Addison, thank you so much for watching my dogs over the weekend. Your communication and notes were nice to work with, and I really appreciate the care and attention you gave them.”
About: I have been a babysitter for over 20 years. Most of the families I worked with had pets, dogs or cats. I have had cats of my own over the years but now I help my mom take care of her 2 dogs. I recently moved to Newport News so I have a completely open schedule. I am already cooking fresh food for my mom's dogs and walking them regularly. Come join us. I prepare meals for my mom's dogs weekly. I research foods they can and cannot have to make sure they are happy and healthy. I also walk them 3 times a day minimum. There is a dog park on the premises but they mostly just sniff around :).
About: I grew up with all sorts of animals, so I already learned to be responsible and care for them at a young age maybe around 8 years old Im a stay at home mom with two dogs that i care for so there is plenty of time to incorporate your fur baby with no problem I have a huge back yard as well as two pups that could accompany your fur baby. But either could also be crated at any time
“I am so happy we found Taylor! She really made our Christmas. We got to go see our oldest kids for the holiday and she took GREAT care of our animals at home. She went above and beyond dealing with little things that popped up around the house and she gave our 2 dogs (and 2 kitties when they let her) so much love. We are beyond satisfied and would recommend her to anyone. We will definitely rebook her in the future if she is available. Thanks Taylor!!”
“Vanessa has a warm and loving personality that puts pets and their owners at ease. She sends pictures and keeps the owner aware of how the drop-in visits are going. My dog Millie and I highly recommend her. We are looking forward to having her housesit in the near future.”
About: I have hands-on experience raising my own dog, Bentley, who is just over a year old. Taking care of him has taught me patience, consistency, and how to understand a dog’s needs at every stage. We spend a lot of time going on walks, playing ball, and playing tug-of-war, so I’m very comfortable keeping dogs active, engaged, and happy. What sets me apart is the genuine care I have for every animal I look after. I don’t just “watch” pets—I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m attentive to routines, good at reading behavior, and I always take the time to build trust with each pet so they can relax and have fun. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already care for my own dog, Bentley. I’m used to planning my day around walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure he gets plenty of attention. I have a flexible schedule, so I can easily include additional pets and give them the same level of care, time, and consistency. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, no matter where they are. In my home, I keep a clean, pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play and relax. I stick to their usual routine for feeding, walks, and sleep so they feel at ease, and I always supervise playtime. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to keep things consistent for their pet. I pay attention to behavior, make sure they’re secure at all times, and give them lots of love and attention. My goal is to build trust with both you and your pet so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.
About: I have plenty of experience caring for pets of my own, as well as volunteering at the local SPCA. Feeding, bathing, grooming, walking, playing, etc. I have one dog of my own, and had one prior who was handicapped and paralyzed, so I have decent experience. I am good to work with any breed or size of dog. I am pretty decently flexible, as I work mornings from 5:30-10, and then anytime after I am 100% free 7 days a week! Feeding, bathing, grooming, walking, playing, simply spending time with, etc. in client’s home for in-home visits. Depending on the task, I can do almost anything needed.

Elizabeth City pet parents share their Rover experiences
She was amazing! My cats are usually very shy with new people but she was patient and gentle that they actually came out of hiding and felt comfortable around her. She sent updates and photos after every visit which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It's clear she really cares about the animals she watches. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
