“Winnie loves her walks with Amanda! Amanda has been wonderful, great communication and always shares cute pictures. She’s been able to adjust schedule as needed. Highly recommend!”
About: I have provided care for many pets from my former teachers, neighbors, family and word of mouth. Both my pets have lived to be seniors and watched senior pets as well. I worked at an animal hospital for about 2 years before moving to this area. I am familiar with giving medications and following instructions on feeding due to allergies and stomach concerns in dogs. I am experienced with reactive dogs and protective dogs when entering the home. I am mostly able to do daily check ins in morning-midday. My work schedule varies, so just ask I can try to work something out! I will meet or chat with you prior to meeting your pup or cat and learn there favorite snacks, toys and walk routes. I want then to be comfortable with me.
About: I've grown up around and have had lots of dogs throughout my life. I've had experience caring for all kinds of dogs big and small. I can also manage multiple dogs at once, and can give each pup tons of attention and love. I have a very open schedule both weekdays and weekends. I'm home from college right now, staying with my parents, and have my own car for any transportation. I live in a neighborhood with a large dog park, and plenty of trees and bushes to sniff. If necessary I have a medium-large sized crate.
“Jessica was so great with Rugby! He was a little stressed out at first and she made him feel right at home. She came to watch him at a concert I was playing and was great reading his cues. She made sure he had fun and didn't join in on the singing (barking) too much, and it was great not having to worry about him while I was playing.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life and all other farm animals. I worked at hunt kennels with 60-70 hounds everyday, vet tech, brought along young puppy’s, I’ve done it all, I’m a very active person and enjoy just getting out with dogs. Please feel free to message me if you would want to know more! I work in the evenings, so would love to fill my mornings up more but have a very flexible schedule to meet house sitting needs Whatever is asked of me and how they like to do things is exactly how I’m going too. I want the animal to still feel comfortable in its own home while parents are away.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and can’t imagine a home without them! From raising my own family pets to caring for dogs of all ages, whether it’s energetic puppies just weeks old or gentle seniors needing extra love. I bring years of experience and genuine care to every dog I meet. Over the past 8 years, I’ve had the joy of watching dogs for friends, neighbors, and family, and I treat every pup like they’re my own. Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and it brings me so much happiness to care for them and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m currently in grad school at UVA with classes only two days a week, and even then, they’re never longer than a few hours at a time. This means I’m available every day and can easily build pet care into my daily routine. Whether it’s morning walks, midday drop-ins, or overnight stays, I have the flexibility to provide consistent and attentive care. I care for pets by giving them lots of attention, love, and activity. Whether I’m in my home or the client’s, I make sure pets get plenty of time to play, go on walks, or just hang out and relax depending on what they need. I try to stick to their normal routine as much as possible, like feeding times and bathroom breaks, and I always make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Staying active with them through walks, fetch, or just playing around, is one of the main ways I show care and build trust.
About: New to Rover, but not to pet care :) I grew up with animals great and small. I've had dogs of all sizes, cats, horses, snakes, mice, chickens, and one skunk. All of my dogs are rescues, so I'm no stranger to reactive dog care and I'm well-versed in positive reinforcement training styles. I love all animals, but I've got a real soft spot for the senior babies. I recently lost my own 16 year old pittie, so I'm comfy in a space that may require a little extra effort. I'm a weightlifter in my free time, so I can easily help any size senior with any mobility issues 💜 I'm starting on Rover after losing my 13 year career in analysis to federal funding issues. My schedule is quite flexible and free, though I do have to be home at night to care for my own four-legged family members While I'd love to offer care in my home, I do have my own pets and introducing new babies to the mix can be stressful for all involved. In your home, I will love on your fur babies as if they were my own. They'll have a cuddle buddy (if they choose), engaging playtime, and treats (if you choose). I also spend quite a lot of time at the gym I own in downtown Charlottesville, so if you'd be comfortable with field trips, I'd happily take them out for some extra socialization.
About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals of my own, other family members and friends most of my life. I have loved and taken care of all kinds of dogs, cats, fish, small cages animals, reptiles, chickens, ducks, goats, and horses. In my past I have worked at a vets office as kennel help and at Pampered pets boarding facility. I’m currently a stay at home mom and a part time Instacart shopper. I would be able to give your pup some love and take out for walks during the time you are away at work or on vacation. I’m available during the week while my son will be in school and on the weekends if needed. I have a fenced in area and two friendly pups that would keep your fur baby happy and safe. I also can crate them if needed.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I’m originally from Charlottesville, Virginia, and currently a full-time undergraduate student at Virginia Tech living in Blacksburg. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy or a calm senior dog, I pride myself on providing attentive, loving care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I’m here to give you peace of mind while making sure your pup is safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m currently working full time during the summer here in Charlottesville. However I’m free for walks before 9am and my work day is over at 5:30. I prioritize safety by keeping a clean, pet-friendly environment and following each pet’s routine closely. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure secure spaces, constant supervision, and lots of love and attention to build trust and keep your pet comfortable.

Tina P.
“I had the pleasure to meet Tina when she lived in PA couple years ago. She was our sitter. Both my dogs Rocco and Casey love her. She is a super sitter, such that every year on our way to Florida for vacation we drop them both at her place in VA. They love to spend time there with her. Neither of my dogs like to be in the kennel, but spending time at Tina’s provides them with special attention they require and the ability to exercise and run for a while each day. It’s like a vacation for them too! I have the peace of mind to know that they are well cared for and enjoy my vacation without concern. I can’t say enough of her dedication and professionalism. I highly recommend her!! Maria Alvarez Langhorne, PA”
Madison H.
“Very professional and reliable.”
Reese M.
“Reese is responsible and simply the best! She has watched both of our puppers on multiple occasions. She is great with all living things, she played with our dogs and took them for walks and even taught them a few new tricks. She spoiled our pups and I highly recommend Reese for all of your pet sitting.”
