About: Hi! My name is Jenny, with over 30 years of experience in pet sitting, I have dedicated my life to caring for a variety of beloved pets. My lifelong passion for animals has provided me with a great understanding of their needs and behaviors. I have been surrounded by pets all my life, from dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, and rabbits to my current companions, goats and chickens. Known for my kindness, responsibility, dependability, and caring nature, I strive to offer the best care for every pet I look after. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and helping with all your pet sitting needs. Your furry friends will be in good hands! 🐾 I currently have a part time craft business out of my home, so I have a very flexible schedule and make my own hours, so I can very easily adapt to your schedule! I ensure that pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy in their own environment while their owners are away. I follow a personalized approach, understanding each pet's unique needs, routines, and preferences. My services include: - **Daily Walks and Exercise:** Keeping pets active and engaged. - **Feeding and Hydration:** Ensuring they have fresh food and water according to their specific diets. - **Companionship and Playtime:** Spending quality time to prevent loneliness and stress. - **Medication Administration:** If required, I carefully administer medications. - **Home Security Checks:** Keeping an eye on the home to ensure everything is in order. - **Clean-Up:** Maintaining a tidy space by cleaning litter boxes, cages, and any messes. With my responsible and caring nature, I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing peace of mind to pet owners knowing their furry family members are well-cared for. 🐾
“I would highly recommend her!! She is punctual and dependable. She always communicates with me about my dogs if there is a concern. She takes great care of my doggies.”
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats and chickens since I was 16. Back at home I dog, cat, and house sat for neighbors and friends. I have always been given great feedback and I love animals! I'm currently an undergraduate student at JMU! I have an extremely flexible schedule and will easily be able to take care of your pets! I am free 7 days a week although there are certain times that I do have class which we can discuss! I have 1 dog and 1 indoor cat at home! I live on a farm so we have a lot of land for my dog to run around! I am able to accommodate to pretty much anything and I love pets so they will be cared for with love!
About: Hi I’m Brandy 🙂 I am a mother to 5 amazing children, and we are on the Autism Spectrum 🥹 We all love animals and are exceptional animal caretakers (and little animal caretakers in training ☺️🤭). I have decades of animal care experience, working with cats, dogs, horses, and even giraffes, elephants, and antelopes! We own and operate a rabbitry with a focus on Flemish Giant rabbits and have somewhat of a “suburban homestead”, chickens, ducks, rabbits, gardens😌🤫🤭I have worked at multiple dog kennels, including free run facilities, and have worked at the SPCA and the Virginia zoo in Norfolk, Virginia. I have experience with and own German-trained protection dogs (Dobermans/German shepherds etc); we also have King Charles Cavalier spaniels. I am familiar with and have worked with dozens of breeds and each breed has its own characteristics although each pup is also unique of course, it is helpful to be familiar with and recognize breed characteristics. We are able to keep your pet in a completely separate quiet area of our home😴😌or they are welcome to join the pack🥳🤪depending on your (and your pet’s) preference. I am very careful, and responsible, and also very observant and intuitive to know exactly what your pet needs. I have also been a professional photographer for 25 years and love to take photos of pets in our care🙂💖 Let me know what your needs are, and we will see if I can accommodate your needs, as my schedule is very open and flexible. My pet care is very custom tailored to your needs and your pet’s needs, let me know what you need and what your pet prefers. I have 4 dogs that stay exclusively in the back part of the home and have access to the backyard. Doggies I am sitting stay exclusively in the front part of the home and have access to the front yard, so there is no interaction between my dogs. My dogs are friendly with other dogs but this arrangement just makes it easier and more comfortable for yours = )
About: Hi! My name is Annalise, and I have been pet sitting since high school, for about six years now. Ever since then, it feels like I’ve found my passion. I’m a student at JMU, and a proud cat mom (the tabby)! Adopting my baby boy Alex soon (the first dog), who I’ve been working on socializing to people. My favorite past time is going to the park with Alex and taking him on walks around people, all at his own speed. I know how important it is to take care of an animal according to their comfortability. I’m willing to put in the work, and I can’t think of a better reward than the love of an animal. If you give me the honor to look after your babies, I promise I’ll care for them fiercely. I do this because I love it, and it makes me happy; please reach out to me if you need a hand, I’d be more than happy to give it!! I have a part time job and am a full time student, but I am more than willing to work around your pets schedule. Your pet’s care is my priority, and I wouldn’t accept a job if I didn’t believe I could give them 110% of my attention and affection. I would take your pets on walks, cuddle them, and overall ensure they’re being cared for to the best of my ability. I would also get to know them well so I could easily assess if any behaviors are out of the ordinary.
“Kyoshi had a great time with Jackson. He asked pertinent questions to ensure effective and efficient way of doing the walks with Kyoshi. I commend his constant communication, punctuality, and most especially the care and attention he gave to Kyoshi. We are extremely grateful for all the assistance he provided to us. I was at peace that Kyoshi was in good hands while I was working on site. Best of luck to all his future endeavors! :)”
“Lola is great! She is very trustworthy & reliable, and took great care of my best buddy while I was going into the office for work! We greatly appreciated the help and will certainly reach back out in the future.”

I grew up with newfoundlands so I’m used to and know how to handle the slober, long hair, and high energy pups and kitties as well as everything in between. Please reach out with any questions and bookings:) I work hybrid and also in the Harrisonburg area so I am able to be flexible to the animals schedule.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Massanetta Springs
Krista was great. Zoe immediately loved her and Coby didn’t mind the wake up call from the couch to meet his new friend. Dogs were walked, fed, and given treats as requested. Proper leash, walking perimeter followed, house locked, and key promptly returned. We even received a picture of the walk. Neither dog expressed any separation anxiety while their humans were on a day trip. I was super happy and will call on Krista in the future. Dogs give her 5 woofs!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
