“Dustin is hands down the best and a perfect fit for my nugget! I have used a few sitters off of Rover but none of them were the right fit! When I am away my pup tends to give everyone a run for their money. She was completely comfortable with Dustin and there were no behavioral issues in my absence! Plus he provided a perfect level of communication and pictures! I will only use his services in the future!”
“Myndee was fantastic! Our dogs took to her right away! She was prompt, sent pictures and videos. Very sweet and kind, you can tell she has a love for animals! Definitely recommend and will use her again!”
About: My family and I have fostered cats and dogs and provided hospice care for a dog with cancer (1 year) until she passed. I understand all breeds and their unique energy needs and activity levels. Medical care and aging limitations would be understood and can be tended to with your pet care needs. I work full time M, T, Th, F, Sa 8am until the deliveries are complete (can range from 2pm to 6pm). When I am not home, there are other family members present (spouse works, dad is retired). In the afternoon and evenings, my children will be attentive to any animals kept at my home. I enjoy connecting with all animals. Our weekends are more hectic with soccer season in full swing. Some weekends we may be elsewhere in Virginia with limited care depending on the weekend, April through June. We have a small fenced in yard with the ability to take your pet out for long, short, or frequent walks. My kids would provide any extra loving and attention while your pet is in my care. I kept a friend's cat for a week. When that week was up, her cat didn't want to leave. Whenever I visit them, the cat finds me to snuggle while I am around. Animals can sense the love and kindness within our family.
“She is awesome! My pups definitely had a good time, lots of playtime, and we came home and they were safe and happy! Definitely recommend, and will ask to have her back in the future! Thank you. :)”
“Rita was great! I definitely recommend her. She watched my 10 week old puppy while my husband and I went out for dinner, and she made us feel very comfortable leaving her for the first time. She respected our home, kept us updated with photos, and took great care of our puppy. We would absolutely book with her again!”
“Bethany was my first house sitter and she was amazing throughout the entire process. It was my first time booking a house sitting, and I had zero anxiety from start to finish letting an unfamiliar person into my home with her. She provided constant updates as the days went by, with pictures of everything also! Upon meeting she was very inquisitive about what care needed to be provided for my doggo, and she exceeded all expectations. My only regret was not booking her for the whole two weeks during my out of town venture. I very highly recommend her for any pet needs you have, and look forward to utilizing her services again!”
“Anna was absolutely fantastic! She sent photos everyday keeping me comfortable that my girl was taken well care of and enjoying her presence as well. She was a wonderful house guest and went above and beyond to make it seem like she wasn’t even there. I will definitely be booking Anna in the future.”
“This was our first time using someone outside of the family to watch our 13 year old dog. We needed someone who could stay at our house while we were gone because our dog wouldn't do well in a kennel type of environment. We were told about Rover by a friend and when I looked, I saw Warren's 5 star reviews. We had him come by and meet our dog and see if it he would be able to provide the care that our dog needed. Afterwards, we were convinced that Warren was the right one for the job. During our trip we were sent pictures of our dog and updates. After our return, we found that our dog was doing well and we were more than satisfied with the job that Warren had done. We would definitely recommend Warren to anyone in our area looking for a sitter, and we will definitely use him again when needed in the future.”
About: I have had pets since I was born. I currently live with four dogs and two cats and help take care of them. I can walk dogs on short and long walks. I can house sit any pets or check in as needed. I have a cat of my own named Clementine. She is an affectionate two year old who loves to play. My sister has a cat of her own named Ace. She is six and prefers her space. She will find you when she wants attention or wants to play. My parents have four dogs. The oldest is Ripley at eleven years old. She loves affection and to cuddle. Penny is a Westie mix who is eight years old. She is a sassy dog who will wrestle her way into getting love. Her brother, Balin, is an eight year old German Shepherd. When he is not barking at one of the neighbors walking on the sidewalk, he loves to play ball or play with his sisters. The youngest dog is Artemis. She is a two year old German Shepherd who cannot stop moving. She loves to play and be outside for as long as she can. I work Monday through Thursday from 8am to 3pm. I am free Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I give pets amble opportunity before I go to work to use the bathroom, eat, and stretch their legs before I leave. When I get back I take the pets out immediately and feed them when scheduled. If I do leave the house, I try not to be gone for more than 4-6 hours. I can follow all of the instructions to the letter. I understand everyone has preferences how their pet is taken care of. I would love to know any quirks or routines your pets may have. I like to update after every visit. For house sitting, I will send photos and an update in the morning and another one in the afternoon. I can provide more updates if desired.
“Chelsea D. Was super easy to talk to. She offered a meet and greet. That was perfect, she spent time to get to know the doggies and their needs. She arrived early on the day she set for our fur babies, that relieved us from stress. She’s a natural with pets with separation anxiety! When we arrived back home our one lil man that has separation anxiety showed no signs of stress, that was so comforting to us. The other two were very happy also. Looks like all 3 have a new friend. We will most definitely use Chelsea D. again! Thank you for sitting our babies!”
“She is punctual and responsive to all messages. Tiffany is very personal, professional and patient with our dogs. She allowed my older dog to relax and chill out while at the same time, she played with my very energetic and playful puppy.”
“April is seriously the sweetest. She helped us out with a last-minute work trip and still showed up with so much care even while going through a hard time herself. Our dogs were happy and well taken care of and that gave us so much peace of mind. We truly appreciate her and would 100% love working with her again. 💛”

Rita was great! I definitely recommend her. She watched my 10 week old puppy while my husband and I went out for dinner, and she made us feel very comfortable leaving her for the first time. She respected our home, kept us updated with photos, and took great care of our puppy. We would absolutely book with her again!
Bethany was amazing, we felt completely at ease leaving our baby with her. She asked all the right questions at the meet and greet, kept us updated daily with photos, and added such thoughtful touches like a toy and printed pictures. Nalah will for sure be seeing Bethany again! Don’t hesitate and book her!
Chrystianne, was great with Neo along with great communication when tending to him and left my place immaculate which I appreciate! I felt comfortable with leaving my boy in her care. Will definitely reach out to her in the future when Neo needs a sitter! Highly recommend her for your pets needs!

Imani was excellent! We are very happy with her services and loving nature towards our four dogs. Imani is very easy to work with. She kept us informed frequently sending pictures. She gladly followed our directions and she left our home neat. We look forward to using her services again.
I'm so happy to have found Barbara! My dogs need more care than the average and she was very attentive to their needs. She contacted me regularly regarding any concern she had for their health as well as sent me pictures of them. She also fed "my" hummingbirds and I very much appreciated that. I will absolutely contact her whenever I go away again. My dogs seemed happy to have Barbara.
Fallon helped us out in a pinch and we could have not been happier! She is professional, responsive and took great care of our pups while we spent a full day out. She sent pictures throughout the day and we had no worries! Will 100% use her again and highly recommend.
Stacie was absolutely AMAZING! I honestly don’t think I could I say enough about how great she was. Her communication was clear and prompt and we could easily see how much effort and care she put into her stay with Odin. I never had any worries about our dog’s care while we were away. She provided multiple daily updates and photos and always kept us in the loop and asked us any questions as they came up. She also took wonderful care of our home. We would rebook with Stacie in a heartbeat! Odin already misses her!!
