“Beth is the BOMB DIggity Doggie Caretaker! If you need someone to LOVE your baby & give them their best… you need to look NO further! Beth will treat them super special while you are away & share precious photo moments with you during her visits! I was so blessed to see my Solly enjoying his walks to his favorite spots each day! I left him some bacon as well as with her attention to my Solly while I was away! She took Solly for his daily walks & even gave him some added”

“Kinsey was so great to our little guy while we were away! It was lovely to be able to truly relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was in good hands.”

About: I’ve shared my life with dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, including adopted and rescue animals of different ages, personalities and needs. I have special experience caring for senior and medically fragile pets. I adopted a very elderly, sick dog who required frequent medication and attentive daily care, and I also cared for my cat through medical needs that required consistent medication. I’m currently a devoted dog mom to Graci, a two-year-old Labrador, and a proud grandmom to Zoey, a two-year-old mini Australian Shepherd/Corgi mix. Caring for animals has given me hands-on experience with walks, feeding routines, playtime, medication schedules, close supervision and helping pets feel safe and comfortable. I understand that rescue animals and senior pets may need additional patience, consistency and time to build trust. I’m also a retired federal professional known for being dependable, observant and calm in unexpected situations. I understand that trusting someone with your pet—and your home—is a very personal decision. I will follow your instructions carefully, communicate consistently and provide plenty of photos and updates so you can feel completely comfortable while you’re away. 🐾 Important Booking Policies & Rates 🐾 Please review my standard hours and specialized rates before booking: * Extended Daycare Policy: My standard daycare rate covers up to 10 hours of care. Any daycare stay that exceeds 10 hours will automatically be upgraded to my Boarding Rate for that day. * Puppy Care Fee: Because puppies require extra attention, frequent potty breaks, and constant supervision, a +$15 puppy fee applies per day/visit for any dog under 1 year old. This fee applies to all Daycare, Boarding, and Dog Walking requests. Note: Rover automatically calculates the puppy rate for some services, but if it doesn't apply correctly to your request, I will manually modify the total to reflect these policies before finalizing the booking. Thank you for understanding! “Continuing my professional development” sounds more natural and polished than “pursuing additional courses.” I’m currently taking a professional break while continuing my professional development, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide your pet with attentive, loving care. I’m home much of the day and can easily accommodate feeding, playtime, medication, cuddles, and your pet’s normal routine. Safety and comfort are always my priorities. I have one friendly Labrador who gets along well with other dogs and can be crated or kept separately if needed. My neighborhood is great for safe, leashed walks, and I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, medication, exercise, and routines.

“Alyssa was amazing, cannot recommend her enough! She took extremely thoughtful notes during our meet and greet, always kept us informed with detailed messages and report cards, respected all our rules/instructions, and was quick to respond. Our dog absolutely loved her! Will definitely be rebooking.”

About: My experience started when i was about 14. I started watching family dogs and cats for money and it slowly became a passion. I work now at a dog resort which has daycare, boarding, bathing, and is now adding training. There I do bathing services, doggy daycare, feeding, administering medication. And that includes Cats as well. My aunt fosters cats/kittens and I have raised 2 dogs starting at month 3 as my grandpa adopted puppies. I helped and have experience with both little puppies and kittens. I love animals so much. I am super happy with this passion and hope to experience and learn more in the future. And am excited to work with you! I work currently at a Resort facility who works with both cats and dogs. And our goal is to provide a safe and comfortable environment for your pets. I work day to day in that facility walking, feeding, medicating, and so much more. I have learned so much about animal behavior and have a pet of my own at home who I take care of day to day. So i work with pets daily. It will depend on what service you are looking for. I can do a basic bath for your pet in your home. (No nail trimming, and you would provide the bath and products you would like used.) For Boarding, either coming to me or me coming to you I can provide playtimes, long/short walks, administration of medication, litter-box cleaning, and more. For walks I can do walks in the neighborhood or take your dog to a dog park! And so much more! I am open to suggestions and ideas of what I can add/offer!

“Alana took care of my cat with no issues and he was more than happy to receive the visits. She even adapted to a quick change of plan which was great! Will definitely ask her again for cat sitting.”

About: I have had dogs, kitties, bunnies & hamsters my entire life. I have a big goofy lab of my own who is my world so I understand the hesitance of entrusting strangers to take care of your furry family members. I take pride in treating other people’s pets as I would my own, while also respecting boundaries & rules put in place by you as their owners. I am currently only available for drop ins & walks and would love to help take care of your beloved pets 💛 I am currently transitioning out of active duty military and hoping to use rover as part time work. My schedule is very open & flexible to meet your needs. I can crate your dog, walk your dog, play or provide enrichment time, feeding or administering medications as needed. Happy to help enforce minimal training during a pop-in to maintain consistency.

“I asked Scott and Hilary if they would mind coming over for a meet and greet. They were happy to. The dogs loved them immediately and we cannot wait to use them in the future when us parents have to be away”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since Middle School! In addition to having many family pets over the years, I have had the opportunity to care for a variety of animals and have had many regulars. I treat each pet as if it’s my own and I take pet care very seriously since I also have my own and understand the importance of the care provided. I have worked with dogs and cats of all ages and breeds. I have worked with many rescues, large breeds, and many anxiety-ridden dogs. I have administered meds and dealt with heartworm with my rescue. I have had experience w/many special needs & seniors as well. I am currently working full time. This schedule is Tuesday-Friday. Weekday evenings after 5pm are available and Sat, Sun, and Monday are all flexible time-wise I currently have my own dogs so I would not bring animals here. I will treat each client’s home as they prefer and I’m very adept at adapting to different routines and environments.

About: I have had cats ever since I was little and have also worked in a cat rehoming and adoption center! I also love dogs and am comfortable walking them and tending to their needs. I’m a teacher on summer break so I will have plenty of time to play with your pets and give them all the attention and care they need! I am not able to board dogs where I currently live (due to my lease) but I can travel to you and give all the services needed! I am comfortable traveling to homes as well as boarding kitties.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for years, both professionally and personally. My daughter and I share a deep bond with our rescue cat Luna, and together we’ve learned how to build trust, respect routines, and honor each animal’s personality. I bring that same dedication to every pet I meet, offering not just care, but companionship, safety, and a sense of home while you’re away. I work part-time, but I’m never alone in caring for pets, my daughter, who studies online, helps me throughout the day. While I’m at work, she watches over our furry friends, making sure they feel safe, entertained, and never alone. Together, we create a warm environment where your pet is always part of the family. I take care of pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable. I follow your pet’s routine carefully. Feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. My daughter helps me when needed, so your pet will always have company and attention. We treat every animal with love, patience, and respect, making sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away.

About: Hiii pet parents! 🐾 Looking for a super fun, safe, loving environment for your pup while you’re away? 🐶🌳 *If it says we aren’t available, please feel free to message us anyways, as we may be able to accommodate it!* A little about us… Austin and I have loved all animals our entire life, with a special love for dogs. We have the sweetest pups of our own and they really are the heart of our home. We have been dog-sitting for friends & family for years before we decided to make it a full-time endeavor! We live on a beautiful, fenced in acre in Nokesville which offers a safe haven where all dogs can enjoy endless play and exploration. We understand the love and concern you have for your dogs, and how being apart from them can cause stress and anxiety. Rest assured, we’re here to ease your mind, giving you our word that we will love and care for your pets as if they were our own! We will send lots of videos and pictures and update as much as we can! Let your pup enjoy a fun, playful vacation while you relax on yours! ☀️ We are super flexible with drop-off/pick-up times, we don’t have “set times.” However, there are certain days few and far between that we aren’t able to do early morning drop offs, we ask that in return you are also flexible with us! Austin and I have alternating work schedules, meaning one of us is always home to provide constant care and attention to your pups full time! If we do have to step out of the house for a little bit, we also have thoroughly experienced (and background checked) employees that help us out here and there so your pup never has to be alone! Safety is our number one priority. We are very well versed in dog body language, signals, etc… We make sure that every dog we accept gets along with other dogs and we properly introduce every dog to the others. We allow all of our furry friends to have free rein of the house and roam freely, however we do have comfy crates available for those pups that prefer their own space sometimes! For your dogs safety, we do separate or crate (depending on the dog) all of the dogs during feeding time, if we have to step out of the house (very rarely), and to sleep. We can be very flexible and accommodating if your dog has special needs/requests. The pups are allowed on the furniture at our house, but we are happy to reinforce your rules here if requested. Please let me know if your dog has ANY history of aggression towards other dogs, humans, food aggression, etc.

About: I’ve been a pet owner and animal lover for as long as I can remember. Sadly, I had to say goodbye to my three senior pups, Molly, Kodi and Abby over the last year. It’s been too quiet without them and I miss having them around to love and care for. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to provide your pets with plenty of attention, affection, and dependable care while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate your schedule and your pet(s) needs. I’m happy to welcome your pets into my home or make visits to your home so they can remain in their familiar surroundings. I have a big fenced-in back yard if you choose the boarding option. I can also bring them over to my house for the day as well. I’ll care for your pets with the same kindness and attention I’ve always given my own. I do have a very flexible schedule which allows me to provide for your pet(s) needs in your home or mine. Transportation available upon request. I have a safe and private fenced-in back yard in a cul de sac. I also have experience with senior dogs who might need medications.

About: Please take a moment to read my full description 🐾💛. It’s very important to me that you do, as everything I include here is designed for the benefit of everyone involved —your pet, myself as their caregiver, and you as their loving parents, because I know your furry friend is truly part of your family and deserves the best care. You may find that what I’ve written here answers several of your questions, especially if this is your first time leaving your pet in someone else’s care. Here you’ll find all the details about boarding and daycare, including my routine, flexibility, safety measures, and how I care for each pet’s needs. If you have any questions or additional concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I’ll be happy to answer everything you need so you can feel completely comfortable and at ease before booking. 🐾✨ ⸻ Hi! I’m Romely, a lifelong animal lover currently living in Virginia. I’m bilingual (English & Spanish), so I can communicate comfortably in both languages —making it easier for you to feel understood and confident when we talk about your furry family member. 💬🐾 I began my journey as a rescuer and volunteer in animal shelters in Puerto Rico, caring for dogs and cats in delicate conditions and staying by their side until they found their forever homes. That experience taught me empathy, patience, and what it truly means to care from the heart. After moving to Virginia, I continued volunteering at local shelters, gaining even more experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and special needs. Caring for animals remains the heart of my daily life. At home, your pet will meet Athenas, my sweet, calm, and friendly dog who loves making new friends —both dogs and cats. I like to provide a balanced routine, with fun walks around our community’s pet park, interactive play, mental stimulation, and cozy relaxation time in a safe, loving environment. During their stay or care, your pet is my priority. I make sure they receive all my attention, love, and supervision so they feel comfortable, happy, and safe at all times. 💛🐾 For me, the most important thing is your pet’s safety and your peace of mind, knowing your furry friend is in good hands. I like to maintain constant communication with pet parents and share multiple updates throughout the day, whether it’s photos, videos, or messages showing how your pet’s day is going. 📸🐾 I never call unless it’s an emergency, but I genuinely enjoy keeping you updated because I know how important it is to feel connected and reassured. If you prefer a different communication style (for example, fewer updates or only once a day), just let me know —I’ll gladly adapt to your preferences. 💕 I’m trained in Pet CPR and First Aid, and I’m comfortable administering oral medications when needed. I completely understand that leaving your pet in someone else’s care can be hard —for both you and your furry friend. That’s why I do everything possible to ensure everyone feels comfortable and at peace from the very beginning. We love treating every pet as part of our own family, giving them the same love, respect, and attention we give to our own. ✨ I only host one family at a time to guarantee fully personalized care. For day sitting, I can care for up to two pets per day, always ensuring each one receives the attention, love, and space they deserve. We also love celebrating pets! 🥳 If your furry friend has a special day —like a birthday or adoption anniversary— please let me know. I enjoy hosting small “puppy parties” and making homemade pupcakes, decorating the space to make their stay extra special. 🎂🐾 📸 I also love photographing pets during their stay and sharing some of those joyful moments on Rover or social media, showing happy, everyday activities. If you’d prefer that I don’t post photos of your pet, please just let me know —I’ll fully respect your wishes. 💕 💻 Since I work from home, I’m not available for in-person meet & greets, as I often have meetings or need to be on call, and I wouldn’t be able to give you the full attention you deserve. I also made this decision because most of my apartment is carpeted, and some people prefer not to remove their shoes when entering. In our home, we don’t wear shoes indoors, keeping the environment clean and safe for the pets. At the entrance, we have a paw-cleaning station, where every time the dogs go out or come back in, we wash their paws with dog-safe soap and water before letting them walk freely inside the apartment. I’m happy to share details about the soap I use, and if your pet has any allergies or needs a specific type of shampoo, please let me know so I can use their own product and ensure their comfort and safety. 🧼🐾 It’s also very important to let me know if your dog has any food allergies or follows a strict diet. Sometimes a small piece of fruit, a bit of cheese, or a treat dogs love 🧀🍎 might sneak its way in —and I always want to make sure everything your pet receives is completely safe. 💕🐶 For Drop-Off and Pick-Up, you’re welcome to come right up to my door to say goodbye to your furry friend, or if you prefer, you can sit on the porch for a few minutes to have a calm and loving farewell. The same applies when you come for pick-up —I want both you and your pet to feel relaxed and supported during that transition. 💛🐾 🐾 I’m also very flexible with schedules and family needs. If you live nearby, I can offer free pick-up for your pet. If you’re a bit farther away, I can still help with transportation for a small, low fee, just to cover travel costs. I’m also flexible with drop-off and pick-up times —you can set them through the app, but if something unexpected comes up or you need to adjust, please don’t stress! I completely understand. If your dog is with me for day sitting and something comes up at the last minute where they need to stay overnight, don’t worry —these things happen, and I’ll gladly make sure they’re safe and comfortable for the night. 🌙🐾 And if your booking was last-minute and you didn’t have time to buy food or any items your pet might need for their stay, I can take care of that for you and do the shopping myself to make sure your furry friend has everything they need. 🛒💕 If, for any reason, your pet needs to extend their stay, I can often make exceptions when possible, even if Rover shows no availability. My priority is to keep everything stress-free for both you and your pet. 💕 That said, I’m happy to schedule a 15-minute virtual tour of my home, send videos of the community and the dog park, and meet through a video call before your pet’s stay. This way, you can feel completely comfortable and confident before leaving your furry family member with me. 💕 Thank you so much for considering my services! I can’t wait to meet you and your beloved pet. 🌿🐶 I work from home full-time, so your pet will always have company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. I’m available on weekdays, weekends, and even for last-minute bookings, giving you peace of mind knowing your furry friend is always cared for and never left alone. I live in a safe, pet-friendly community with its own dog park, perfect for daily walks, exercise, and playtime. At home, your pet will meet Athenas, our sweet and friendly dog who loves both dogs and cats. If needed, I can provide crate space or separate areas to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: I have had a lot of animals all throughout my life and am very respectful of their boundaries. I make sure every pet is well loved, respected, and fully taken care with food and water and also walks and treats! I’m available anytime of the day durning the week or weekends, I am very flexible and reliable I have my own vehicle and a valid drivers license. I make sure they have food and water all the time and take them on walks when needed. I make sure they are loved and that all there needs are taken care of and that they have food and water.

“Kiley was absolutely wonderful to my sweet pup. She provided play time and a potty break in the middle of the day when I was at work. And even managed to befriend my cat who hides from everyone. Her time and attention given to my pup was greatly appreciated by both the humans and the dog who was much happier being at home than at doggy daycare.”

About: After proudly serving in the military, I decided it was time for a change. Changing careers has opened up my schedule, giving me the opportunity to fill my time with activities I truly enjoy—especially spending quality time with the purest type of love you can get from your fur babies. I have a natural instinct to be protective. Your fur babies will be in good hands with me. I’m comfortable staying calm and stepping in when situations become stressful, including separating dogs if a conflict occurs. I also have some background experience in law enforcement. The reason I mention this is because, with me, you’re not only getting a dog sitter—you’re also getting someone you can trust to look after your home while you’re away. Safety is always my number one priority to those around me. As you look through my photos, you’ll notice several dogs I’ve known and cared for since they were puppies. I’ve taken care of dogs belonging to family, friends, and coworkers over the years. This is simply my first time offering those services through an app. I’d be more than happy to share stories about some of my favorite four-legged friends if you’d like to continue the conversation. They all hold a special place in my heart, and I genuinely loved spending time with them. The Siberian Husky in the photos is my sweet fur baby, Niko. It has been a couple of years since his passing, but he will always have a special place in my heart. Niko was a very loving and gentle Husky. He got along with everyone, loved wrestling with other dogs at the dog park, and enjoyed going on long walks. He was also by my side through some of the hardest times in my life. I’m not quite ready to take on the full responsibility of owning another dog, but I would absolutely love the opportunity to build a special bond with your fur baby. I hope to give them the same love, attention, and companionship I gave Niko. Working a full time job. I can possibly do Thursday evenings. I have some Fridays off/get off early from work. I’m off Saturdays and Sundays. I can be even more flexible, depending on location. I have had dogs stay with me in the past, but I am currently renting and unable to provide that service as of now. I’m available to provide love and care to your fur baby in your home, if you’d like.
