“Cindy is a wonder! My scaredy-dog loves her, and went to her willingly even though it had been a long time since his last visit. She asked if I’d like her to give him a bath, and that was a very welcome addition. Thank you Cindy!”

“This was Luna’s first day with Julie. She was happy when I picked her up and seemed to enjoy herself. We have another day scheduled in a week.”

“Despite the late request, Ross answered very quickly and was able to arrange a brief meeting the same night for Murdoch and his dog to meet. The day after, we left Murdoch with Ross and Ava and everything went monthly with a few pictures of Murdoch's day. I recommend Ross and Ava !”

“This was our first time leaving our 1-year-old dog with someone outside of the family since we got him. Katelynn was awesome with Zeus and was great with him from the very start! He typically is very scared of new people and refuses to leave our side but she made him feel comfortable and safe from the start! She kept us up to date throughout the day which made us feel safe. We will definitely have Zeus stay with her next time, she was wonderful and I would highly recommend her!”

About: When in the care of my partner and I, pets are enriched and have plenty of opportunity for activity. If your dog enjoys swimming, I can take them to a nearby creek to play. I have a large yard for playing fetch, or just hanging out, and a spunky lab mix that is happy to play tug-o-war. I've always had dogs and cats, and for a short time, pet rats (they're lovely!). I come from a long line of animal lovers and continue that legacy. You can check out my pets’ Instagram at @mystic_whiskers_ I am very attentive to animals and put them at ease so they settle into their home away from home. I have a flexible job that allows me to work from home, so I am flexible with pick-up and drop-off times unless otherwise communicated. I am in RVA most weekends as well. I have a fenced backyard and a dog and 2 cats. The cats have been around other dogs, and Eddy the dog loves other dogs- he has lots of energy to share!

“Thanks for hosting Suki for a fun and safe day!”

“Joleya helped my pup feel right at home! She provided a safe and comforting environment for my pup while I was in the office during the day. She was prompt with responses and reassuring.”

About: I treat each pet as an individual first, catering to their specific needs. I provide care, attention, and of course, love as if they were my own friends, hoping that they will be soon. Rover is my current focus; your pet will receive as much attention as they need. With a flexible schedule, I can come to you or have them come to me. There's a large unfenced back yard, quick access to the river, and nature walks on Belle Isle. I provide a clean and well thermoregulated house for the hot summer months, with a room dedicated just for the pets, though not restricting them to the room.

“Kat has a wonderful personality and deep love for animals. She has a great home and is committed to taking the best care of your pet. I know my dog is in great and safe hands with her. I will be using Kat in the future for sure!”

“Bonnie loved her day with Kyla will definitely be repeat customers”

About: Hi, I’m Leah – your pups new favorite person! As someone who has previously owned/inherited 3 dogs, I know how hard it is to leave your best friend with anyone that’s not you. That’s why I don’t take this responsibility lightly—your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort come first! I grew up with dogs and have spent my life around wagging tails and unconditional love. Whether your pup loves long walks FULL of sniffs, tug-of-war, or just cuddles on cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel loved and at home. I’ve also cared for reactive dogs in the past—including my own—so I really understand how important it is to create a calm, safe space where they can feel secure. I know every pup is different, and I always lead with patience, empathy, and lots of love. Think of me as your dog’s vacation buddy while you're away💕 I work from home and am mostly always home during the evenings. I don’t have meetings too much so I can take your pup out and about as many times as you’d like. I have an apartment but live right beside a green space. I also love taking pups on car rides so happy to take them on hikes or go to the river!

“Precious took great care of my puppy Max. She responded quickly when I needed someone to watch my puppy for the day. I would definitely use her service again.”

Christa M.

“Tim and his wife are very pleasant and I was even invited inside their cozy living room. Nice neighborhood and they have a nice yard in the back. Also, our communication before and during Anis stay was very easy. I’d definitely book again.”

Antonio W.

“Reese's stay was amazing with Nicholas and his pup! Our girl is high energy and came home tired and happy. We got pictures of her having her best day both outside playing and inside napping, which we appreciated on this hot summer day. We will definitely be repeat customers. Thank you!”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have cared for my own golden retriever, Sunny, since he was a puppy. Sunny is now 5 years old, well-behaved, and friendly with other pets. My experience includes daily walks, playtime, and creating a safe, loving environment for dogs of all temperaments. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will get plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. I walk Sunny twice daily—morning and evening—and love spending time outdoors. My schedule is flexible, so I can accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays. I live in a one-level ranch-style home with a fully fenced-in backyard, perfect for safe outdoor play. My home is quiet, clean, and pet-friendly. Sunny is gentle and social, making him a great companion for visiting pets. I treat every dog like family and prioritize their comfort and safety.

About: Taken care of dogs and cats since middle school. I’m the go to for house sitting, pet sitting and tidying in my family. If that is your cup, book me! I teach from home part time w a lot of flexibility. At this time I have a lotta in between time and since I work east coast hours most days I am done really early! I make sure to follow your pets normal schedule and routine so they are happy and healthy upon your return home! I will love and care for your pet as if they are my own.

About: Hi!! My name is Emily and I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I grew up surrounded by so many pets and have a few of my own now which I love with my whole heart! Would do anything for them, as I know you would for your fur babies too!! Trusting someone with your pet(s) is a big deal, especially if it’s your first time being apart - I get it! I’d love to be able to help ease any worries or concerns by making sure they have the best time and get all the love they need while you’re away. I love sharing as many updates / photos during my stays/visits, as I would hope a sitter would do for me, too. 🥰 I have been pet sitting as well as house sitting / babysitting & professional nannying for years! I figured it would be so great to broaden my portfolio and create a rover profile to connect with more families and pets in the area. 😊 I do work full time, but work remotely with a very flexible schedule! I am currently wanting to add side gigs to help pay for my upcoming wedding in 2026. 🥰 I try and keep my availability updated daily! Please send me a message with any questions. A teeny bit make about my background with pets - I can administer medications, am great with senior dogs, high energy pups, special needs assistance and puppy training. Great with walks and play time as well! Absolutely love all the snuggles too. A bit about rover - Rover will collect about 20% of my listed rate per each booking, as well as the 8% service charge you are charged through the platform. Ask me about my rover discount, and about returning customer rates too! ❤️ I work from home so am very flexible with my schedule. I can overnight sit as well as house dogs in my home without needing to leave them unattended! They’ll always have someone to snuggle. I’m flexible with daytime / evening drop ins as well. I can care both in and out of my home. Whichever you prefer. We have a large fenced in yard and a lovely screened porch too!
