Jani & Paul were able to graciously accommodate my puppy for daycare on very short notice. He thoroughly enjoyed his stay and will most definitely be booking again. The best!!!

Bertie was amazing! It was my first time using Rover as a pet owner, and I needed a sitter for the day while on vacation. My puppy is still fairly young and is very attached to me, but she appeared to settle in pretty quickly and have a great time with some other pups. Bertie stayed in touch while I was out, sending pics and updates, and even recommended some great local spots to check out. Super happy with this experience!

We were impressed with Jessica’s care for our border collie mix Boots for a very long day care day. Boots enjoyed the fenced-in yard and romping with another visiting dog. With a lovely, flexible, positive personality, Jess made us feel assured that Boots was being well taken care of. We would highly recommend her to others and will definitely seek her services again, when we return to town and need temporary dog care.

Paula took excellent care of our dog Loki. We were visiting from out of town and need a place for Loki while we visited older relatives. Paula was good with communication and Loki came back all happy. Definitely recommend!

About: I’ve lived around animals my entire life, and I have endless love and patience for animals of all kinds. My number one priority is to make your animal feel cared for. I’m currently working a part time job that I spend about 15 hours at a week, but my hours are very flexible and I can work around almost anything! I will take pets on walks and/or feed them, give them water and make sure they have everything they need to be happy and healthy I have my own dogs that I care for throughout the day, but as a part time worker I have a lot of free time in the day to tend to your pets needs! I can stay with your pets in their own home, and I have my own dog who is very sweet who loves to make new friends. My goal is to spend quality time with your pets and make them feel cared for in the time I spend with them.

This was my first time using the Rover app and booking with Hannah was super easy. I'm so grateful that she was able to accodmodate a very late request, literally a day before to care for my puppy while I had to work and my hubby out of town. He seemed to have had a wonderful time with Hannah and her pets. I appreciated the updates about my pup during his stay. We love Hannah and look forward to booking with her again if needed. Thank you Hannah!

Orange, VA, 22960

About: I started my journey with dogs 4 years ago and have not looked back enjoying every moment since. I am a certified trainer who loves improving the relationship between human and dog. We have a dog yard plus 5 acres. All dogs stay in our extra bedroom, which is now considered the dog room. I personally have two dogs, a cattle dog and a husky mix. They are both very social with all other dogs. We like to have a good time here but I keep a very safe environment for the dogs, no fighting or picking on one another. NO DOG IS TURNED AWAY. If you think your dog is aggressive, I can and will evaluate them so that if possible, we will get them socializing with their own kind and having a great time. Thanks, have a good day! I train dogs for a living so I stay at my house 7 days a week besides when I work with clients and those lessons tend to run about an hour but no more than 2 hours! I have 9 years experience running my own kennel and have two dogs with a large fence so there will be no boredom here! I do prefer to kennel dogs for the night but as we get comfortable with each other they will start to earn more freedom! Pet care is my full time job and i wouldn’t have it any other way, it has been a blessing. I hope I can help make your schedule less stressful! While you’re away, let your dogs play! I have a five foot fenced in dog yard specifically for dogs. We also have another 5 acres that we will walk all client dogs on during their stay with us.-

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life and truly love working with them. Since the age of 10, I’ve looked after dozens of dogs, volunteered at multiple shelters, and trained two puppies. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes from tiny 8 pound pups to large 100 pound dogs. I would be honored to watch your dog and can promise they’ll receive plenty of attention, care, and love while in my hands. I already have a dog to walk on a daily basis and I am home for most of every day. I will have the free time to take care of your dog to the best of my ability. I have a dog crate, homemade dog house, and an organized 3 story house the dog can stay in and roam around. There is a small front yard and a large area outback for space to walk.

Zion Crossroads, VA, 22942

About: Please note we're in the Zion Crossroads area. We take one dog at a time so our schedule can be limited. We've had different pets since we were kids including dogs, cats, fish, chickens, and cows. We had 3 pups whom all passed in 2023. This past year we added a playful but gentle medium sized labradoodle to our family. So, we joined Rover this year. Your pup will be a member of our family during their stay. They are allowed on furniture during the day but are typically crated at night (per your guidance). We have a small fenced area in front yard and an extra large fenced area in back. Pups must be house broken. Please note, our pup Ozzie is one year old and an active pup. So, may not be the best fit for senior dogs. We're retired so typically someone is always home. We do crate our pup if we leave our home. And crate your pup as appropriate. We're able to let pups out according to your schedule. The health and safety of our pup and your pup is a top priority. Our home is fenced in at the front door area area and an extra large area in rear. Our home is puppy proofed as our pup just turned one. We have a zero tolerance to aggressive dogs whom will be separated during a stay and not permitted to return. Please provide proof of vaccines including Rabies, Bordatella, DAPP/DHPP and Leptospirosis (your Vet should be able to email you a copy). Date of last flea/tick and heartworm medication (these meds are important to us to prevent fleas and round worm at our property). Please only bring food and treats for the time period booked (a little extra for emergencies). Please let us know of any allergies. We provide blankets, bowls, toys and crates as needed. We wash all blankets and clean crates with every pet sitting.

Little High, Charlottesville, VA, 22902

About: I've spent the past 4 years going in and out of 3 different dog related jobs. I started at a boarding kennel, walking dogs every day for a summer. Then moved to an overnight kennel where I watched over 100+ dogs per night by myself and cared for them. After that, I started working at a local dog walking business where I did drop-in visits, walks, home-care, etc. I am now looking for some more part time work to use skills I've learned. I am extremely flexible currently. I am working from home part-time so I am almost always available for meet and greets/pet care. I am most available during the weekends, or during the morning/evening during the weekdays. I do not take animals into my home for boarding. I am focusing on drop-in visits, house check ins, as well as walks. I also have my own dog and 2 cats so I am unable to be an overnight house sitter

Buffy had her first day of doggie day care and seemed to love it! Charissa worked with her on some leash manners while letting Buffy get more comfortable being around the other pups. Charissa must have kept her mind and body busy all day because Buff came home and slept the rest of the evening. We are looking forward to Buffy getting some more time around other dogs.

About: I’m a mom of two, proud dog owner, and lifelong animal lover who understands just how important it is to know your pets are cared for like family when you’re away. With two dogs of my own, I know the joy of long walks, playtime, and snuggles—and I bring that same energy and love to every pet I care for. I balance my career in marketing with the things I enjoy most: playing pickleball, cheering on college football, hiking, and spending time outdoors in nature. I’m reliable, responsible, and detail-oriented, which means you can trust me to not only care for your pets but also look after your home with the same level of responsibility I give to my own. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just keeping your pets company, I’d love to make sure they’re happy, safe, and well-loved while you’re away. Work from home primarily so plenty of time for outdoor fun and bathroom breaks. Schedules are flexible to meet your needs so just let me know how we can help! When I’m caring for dogs in someone else’s home, I make it a priority to keep their routine as normal and consistent as possible. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully—whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, or favorite play activities—so the dogs feel comfortable and secure. I always give them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while also respecting the home by keeping things neat, tidy, and safe. My goal is to make sure both the pets and their owners feel at ease, knowing that their dogs are happy, cared for, and loved while they’re away.

Mary and her family did such an amazing job taking care of Buttercup. I definitely felt very comfortable each day and prior to booking. Mary worked with my early morning drop offs and long work hours which is much appreciated. The frequent pictures and updates were an added bonus. I definitely look forward to booking in the future!

We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Bowie! Jayden was wonderful from start to finish. He kept us updated throughout our time away with regular messages and adorable photos of Bowie, which gave us peace of mind. It was clear that Bowie was well cared for and happy. Jayden’s communication was excellent - they were always responsive and proactive about letting us know how things were going. I came back to one very content puppy! I would absolutely book with Jayden again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter.
