“Tori was great to work with. I was up in Pennsylvania house sitting for my mom, but had to drive to Virginia 2 nights and come back the same nights. She helped out tremendously by letting Chloe and Delilah out and loving on them while I was gone. I'm definitely gonna recommend her to my mom as well. I cant even give enough thanks for how much she helped and took the stress off of me having to leave the pups for 8 hours.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for different family members and friends. Your animals would get plenty of attention and love with me. I wake up at 6 am. My week days vary from having class from 9-11 MWF, Tuesday at 2, and Thursday at 11. I live off campus about 3 minutes away, so I can easily check in/take out the pets. I do not have a fenced in yard, but there is plenty of grass and a park within walking distance. I am more comfortable walking with a leash unless there is a fenced in yard. My apartment has 1 roommate and plenty of space for dogs/cats to roam or lay down.

About: I am a dog owner that loves staying active with my dog. I have 20+ years experience with dogs and other animals. I grew up with horses and other farm animals so that helped me become very versatile with different types of animal behaviors . I will treat your dogs as if they were my own. I am a very loving and caring person and treat animals the way I would want to be treated. I am active and love to go hiking and be outdoors. I will do fun stuff with your dog based on your lifestyle and what your dog likes to do. We have a huge yard for your dog to run around. You can reach out to me with any questions you might have. Thanks for considering me! I’m home all day with the dogs in my care to play, cuddle, and walk! We spend all day keeping busy so they go home happy and tired! I have a huge yard with a big portion fenced in for off leash play. I always make sure the dogs are watched very carefully.
“Thank you so much for taking care of Reign and River while I was away. I truly appreciate how well you care for the pups and appreciate you being available when I’ve needed help. You guys are amazing!”

About: I have several years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals. I am currently pursuing my education to become a veterinary technician, with the long-term goal of becoming a veterinarian. Through my experience, I have developed strong knowledge and skills in pet training, dog walking, proper nutrition and feeding, and medication administration. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work a part-time job, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule. I keep my Rover calendar up to date to reflect my availability, though occasional changes may come up. I always encourage clients to reach out, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs and ensure the best care for your fur baby! I do not offer in-home boarding, but I am happy to provide care in your home. I strive to maintain your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. When possible, I am available for extended stays, which can provide added consistency for your pet’s care and fit well with my schedule. I also recommend that clients leave detailed care instructions, as every pet has unique needs, routines, and preferences.

About: Being around animals just brightens my day! I was a groomer for 2 years before becoming a mom full time. I have experience with dogs ranging from little baby doggies to the giants of giants and I love them all. I ABSOLUTELY will take pictures of your furbaby so fully expect picture updates along the way. I have experience with diabetes in dogs so I’m good with giving insulin injections as well as taking blood for blood sugar checks. I’ve dog sat for friends/family/neighbors and my priority is to always treat every pup as my own. I have 8 years experience house sitting/checking in/dog walking for others and 11 years personal experience. I’m a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to hangout with your fur babies! My morning availability starts at 8:30am. When doing check ins or house sitting I like to follow any requests/routines you the pet parent already have in place for your fur babies day to day.
“Stephanie took such amazing care of our cats while we were away visiting family. She always gave great updates and pics that really put our minds at ease. We came home to a bunch of healthy and happy cats that didn’t seem to care that we were even back! We hope Stephanie is available when we have to travel again!”
“Shae was fantastic with Marisa and Shandy. They took to her immediately. I also appreciated her immediate response to our request. I won’t hesitate to use her services in the future.”

“John checked in on my terribly scared and shy cat while I was out of town. He managed to find my cats hiding spots and snap a few cute pictures. Everything went well, no issues. Thanks so much.”
About: I have always had pets growing up and continue to keep dogs as an adult. I have raised and trained a variety of breeds and ages.

About: I do not simply care for the pets needs, I care for your needs too. Puppy has an accident? Why don’t I mop the floors of the whole house in addition to the affected area. I will train your pups to be good “pup-american citizens.” I am currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your animals!

“Angela was great and helped us out last minute over the Holiday! Our pups seemed to love her and she sent detailed River cards for us each time! Definitely recommend Angela!!”

I love animals, so I will treat yours as if it were mine. My pets love to cuddle up right next to me so hopefully yours does too!
“Kaylee did an amazing job pet sitting my cat Fluffy for 8 days! Highly recommend. She spent extra time with him, played with him, let him curl up with her for extra pets, brushed him, even brought a laser toy and extra treats! In addition to feeding and watering him. Sent pictures and a note everyday. I felt completely comfortable and assured that fluffy was in great hands. Will definitely have Kaylee pet sit again.”

About: Home Environment I live in a spacious house featuring a securely fenced back yard, providing a safe and comfortable environment for pets to play and relax. My Chihuahua, who is notably sociable and friendly, enjoys interacting with other dogs, cats, and people alike. Resident Pets In addition to my Chihuahua, I share my home with two cats that I rescued from the local animal shelter. Both cats are well-adjusted and accustomed to living with dogs. Typically, after a brief introduction consisting of a few sniffs and perhaps a hiss, they are able to coexist peacefully with other cats. Experience and Availability Since retiring from the Army, I am available around the clock to care for your beloved pet. With more than 26 years of experience in owning and caring for both dogs and cats, I am well-versed in understanding and meeting their unique needs. Commitment to Care I promise to care for your pet as if it were my own, ensuring its safety, comfort, and happiness. Every animal entrusted to me is treated as an extended and respected member of my household. I am a retired Army veteran and parent of a Chihuahua and 2 cats. I am available around the clock to take care of your fur baby as a respected member of my household. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly Chihuahua to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. My cats ignore dogs that don't want to play. If your dog dislikes cats, I am able to separate their living areas while your dog is on-site.
