“Sam was great! She was flexible with the walk times on Saturday so we could meet beforehand, and I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with her. She followed my instructions, sent pictures, and kept me updated throughout the weekend. She was easy to communicate with, and I’d definitely book her again!”
“I truly appreciate the excellent service I received. She was very attentive and made me feel like she genuinely cared about my dog. I especially appreciate her accepting my request last minute and still providing such great service. I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to my friends.”
“Jessica is very sweet and took the time to let our dog warm up to her. She took great care of our pup and kept us updated on the walk from when she got there until the end. We would definitely use her again for the future!”
“Cory was great with my dog, who can be difficult and high energy. He sent plenty of pictures and updates during the visit. I highly recommend him - especially if you are looking for someone that will be patient with your pet!”
“Lisa is AMAZING! Bane and her clicked right off the bat. He enjoys his walks and the love she gives him while I am away at work. She is number one in my book and I couldn’t ask for a better person to watch my baby boy. I highly recommend her for any service you may need.”
“Chloe has been a lifesaver!! She sends us detailed messages and cute pictures of our dog, Buddy, from each and every visit. It is very clear she is an animal person and trustworthy in her patience and loving interactions. Thank you so much!”
“Hailey comes highly recommended if you want someone punctual, honest, trustworthy and willing to go above and beyond to provide the best professional care for your animals. She took care of our Reese’s for almost five days while we were away. She provided great pics, perfectly capturing our girls happiness! She also provided in great detail how each individual walked played out. She made sure she always had fresh water and food. You really can’t go wrong with this one.”
About: My family has had dogs and cats since before I was born. I am comfortable with both large and small dogs. I am also comfortable with many animals at once as my family has 3 dogs and 3 cats! I am a full time student and a member of the women’s rugby team. However, I have many smaller breaks during the day when I am happy to pop by and say hi! I will always keep an eye on your pet whenever I let them outside if you have a fenced in yard. Safety is always important to me so I will always give your pet priority. I will send you pictures any time I see them that way you get an update!
“Claudel is amazing! She instantly connected with my pup, kept me updated on any changes, and shared how the walks went. She was also accommodating to my pup’s needs and schedule. We’re so excited to be working with her and give her our highest recommendation! 🐶✨”
About: I love all animals no matter what kind or size. Looking for anyway to be around animals more that can also help and benefit others. I have grown up with all kinds of animals big and small from dogs, cats, goats, guinea pigs and more. I have spent some weekend volunteering at animal shelter events and hope to do more stuff in that range. I work at a bank but am willing to animal sit immediately after work also on some holidays and weekends. I have no allergies or fear of any animal and am willing to sit for any breed or size. I have a medium size dog of my own who I love dearly, and she says I’m a great dog sitter too.
About: I’ve always had pets my whole life of all different kinds. I’m patient and playful with animals. I have cared for mostly seniors and puppies. I currently sit a senior Boxer with arthritis so I have experience with administering meds and providing comfort. I’m working with only one family with three dogs right now, so my availability is pretty open! I also do well with a lot of pets, as I live on a small homestead. I do best in a client’s home as I believe it makes the pet the most comfortable. I also have too many animals in my personal home to feel comfortable allowing my animals to interact with other pets. My pig isn’t the biggest fan of dogs these days. I prefer a backyard when possible so I have space to play with your buddy, but I also love a long walk. Whatever is most convenient and comfortable, I can work with just about anything.
About: I've watched pets of family and friends since I was a kid and always enjoyed it. I always make sure to spend plenty of time and give them as much attention as they want. For dogs, I did walks, gave bathroom breaks, play time, cleaned up accidents, and fed them. For cats I'll do the same, except walks. I am available everyday for the foresable future, on the bright side that leaves me with no commitments where I won't be able to watch your pets For my own cats, I fill the water and food bowls daily, as well as clean the litter boxes. Throughout the day I provide them with affection or a warm lap/bed. For dogs I will make sure they're completely safe outside and watch for any other dogs or cars. Inside I will do the same with my cats.
About: my whole family got dogs around the same time and i am the homebody of the family so i got to dog sit all the time and have much knowledge on what a dog needs are i am a college student who is an animal lover, i am a dedicated and caring animal sitter with a passion for providing top notch care for your pet. i offer safe, fun and neutering environments for all animals. as i will be in school i will be home on the weekends with a very open schedule and am willing to work with you. i understand each pet has a different personality and preference and i strive to make a stress free experience for them. you can rest assured that your pet is safe hands.
About: I had 3 dogs growing up. I want to have a feeling of connection again to pets that is not just in passing. I care about dogs more than most things. Having the ability to walk, stay, and play with dogs again would be amazing. I am currently unemployed and waiting to hear back from several full-time employers. In the mean time, helping others when they are out of town with their pets would be a great time. You do not have to kennel your dog and know they are in safe care. And it gives me a chance to get out of my house. I am very good with the written instructions provided, if not, I will go with how the dog feels. It is their home and I will simply be a guest. I will make sure they are in the most loving environment that is clean and always there for them.
“Lindsey is absolutely INCREDIBLE! The love and care she shows for my pup is unmatched. She goes above and beyond to work with my schedule and is truly such a kind person. If you’re looking for someone to look after your pup in any way. No hesitation. It HAS to be Lindsey. You will not regret it!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I work full time at a grooming salon as a pet bather. And I have experience working at an animal hospital and a pet sitting company. I’m able to watch any sized dog and any age from puppies to seniors. I also offer simple grooming services! I regularly take multiple dogs on hikes for at least 1 hour and am used to watching large groups of dogs at a time I’m currently working full time, 5 days a week. I am free all day Tuesday, and Sunday. But I’m also free after 4pm any other day . I can pet sit overnight any day and do drop in visits in the morning, evening, and at night. I am unable to board dogs at my own home but at a clients home I can take your dogs for both short and long walks. I can even take them to a park for a nature hike. I will feed them at their scheduled times and if wanted by owners I can crate them. If medication is needed I am comfortable with giving it to them. I will give them plenty of love and lots of playtime. If wanted I can also give nail trims, brushing, ear cleaning and baths as I work full time as a pet bather.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fredericksburg
Sam was great! She was flexible with the walk times on Saturday so we could meet beforehand, and I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with her. She followed my instructions, sent pictures, and kept me updated throughout the weekend. She was easy to communicate with, and I’d definitely book her again!
Ann was absolutely wonderful with my dog! She was reliable, caring, and clearly treated him like her own. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands, and she kept me updated along the way. I would definitely recommend Ann to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to walk their dog. Thank you, Ann!
Likely my dogs' favorite person to come visit, Lela is punctual, communicative and fun! She took them for an exciting walk with lots of sniffs and smiles, as seen in their pictures sent in the rover card. I appreciated the thoughtful updates and attention to detail. Highly recommend!
Cheyenne is an absolute pro! She replied promptly to my dog walking request and was able to quickly set up a meet & greet. She was very patient with my dog, who had never had a “stranger” as a dog walker/sitter and was able to successfully walk him on their first one-on-one despite his anxiety. She kept me up to date on her arrival times and almost immediately sent my dog’s report card out after his walks. After only a couple of days, my dog really warmed up to her, wanting her to stay and play. I’m glad I was able to find someone who’s obviously great with animals but is also trustworthy and professional!
Erin came through for us in a pinch! We felt very relieved knowing she was there to get our Niko through the day without us home. She even came into an unfortunate garbage bin excavation that had been tracked across the floor with a guilty Niko suspiciously at the scene of the crime (lesson learned) and Erin went out of her way to clean up the mess. She was very proactive in communications and provided all the details of his care. Will definitely be booking again and highly recommend!
