“Sierra was great and if needed I will be booking her again! She was able to watch my fur baby last minute and kept me updated throughout the day! My baby also warmed up to her really quickly which was really refreshing since he typically takes a minute!”
“Marie is awesome!!! From the first meeting we had, she made us feel comfortable leaving Yani with her. It was hard for us to leave him for that long (3 weeks) and be thousands of miles away, but with her sending pictures consistently and giving us daily updates, she made it a lot easier for us. She even took time to hand- feed ( being a picky eater) and train Yani as well which is a big PLUS!!! She even gave us a list of what their routine was and the commands she taught so we can follow through. We can’t thank her enough for what she has done taking care of our fur-baby, and would definitely book her again.”
“Boarded my cats with Sherry, and am really happy with the experience! I was nervous initially since I wasn’t sure how it would go with dogs at the residence, but she had that covered! Sections of the house are gated off, so my cats had their own space. I also appreciated her updating me with daily photos. If I need to board again I’d definitely do it through Sherry again!”
“They did such a great job watching our pug, Max. We felt really comfortable leaving him with them. They sent pictures several times to show how he was doing, and we would definitely use them again!”

“Stacy was very communicative and my family loved getting pictures of our dog every day while we were on vacation. Stella was well cared for and enjoyed having other dogs and loving humans to play with.”
“Lee Ann took great care of Callie while we were out of town. She sent pictures and comments most days so we knew Callie was having fun. Our two Goldens loved playing together.”
“Matthew has been a PHENOMENAL resource for our doggos! The two of them together are not for the faint of heart 😅 and Matthew’s beautiful home environment and his great demeanor make our dogs stay with him a safe haven for our pups! We are so thankful for him!”
“Michelle was amazing! She kept me well updated on my pup and made sure he have plenty of interaction. Definitely recommend her and her family to watch over your fur babies while on vacation.”
“Jillian was very helpful with every little thing, if i needed to adjust a day or time jillian was very understandable and did everything and anything she could to help through the boarding process ! I am very thankful for her ! My dog was very taken care of and I would get pictures the time my dog was boarded up! Highly recommend Jillian if you need someone to watch over your pet !”
“Exactly what I needed! Anna was super flexible on our drop off and pick up times, she sent me updates and pictures every day of our 8 day reservation and provided insight to my dog Buddy's behavior. I will definitely be using Anna for any future dog sitting needs and feel completely safe with Buddy in her care.”
“I HIGHLY recommend Brittney. I relocated to Virginia from Charlotte North Carolina. She had my dog for 3 weeks while I waited to move into my apartment. My dog was very comfortable with her. Brittney communicated often, sent me pictures and allowed me to stop by and visit Mona. It was really hard being away from my dog. When I left after the visit, Mona remained very calm, she didn't whine or nothing. I knew then, that Mona was comfortable. So I will absolutely use her again if needed.”
“Jordan was amazing with my puppy! She always updated me, listened to all my instructions, and took amazing care of her. Would definitely trust her with my dog again!”
“Cassidy was great. She made us feel very comfortable leaving our dog with her. Her dogs are so well behaved it was like a vacation for our Husky/malamute mix. She even gave us some tips for training our pup. I would absolutely use her again next time I'm in Norfolk.”
“Lilly is truly a caring and compassionate pet sitter who treats animals like members of her own family. Every time Wheeler stays with her, I know he’s in loving hands. Her kids also spend time with the pets, adding to the warm, family-like environment. She frequently sends beautiful photos and keeps me updated on Wheeler’s activities and playtime, which gives me so much peace of mind. Her spacious backyard is perfect for dogs to run and play, and if the weather allows, she even takes them on walks or to the nearby park. She’s incredibly receptive to each pet’s individual needs and always goes the extra mile to help them feel at home. Wheeler absolutely loves staying with Lilly—he gets excited as soon as we pull up to her house, and sometimes doesn’t want to leave because he’s having such a great time! I now try to book monthly stays with her, simply because Wheeler enjoys it so much. I couldn’t ask for a better person to care for him. A true Gryffindor, Lilly responds to every challenge with courage and resolve. She would simply never abandon a quest or choose some other life without caring for pets!”
“I loved having Marina keep my puppy so much the first time that I booked a stay for our next trip! She was caring, gave walks, provided comfort, and updated me along the way. I found my go to dog sitter!”

Norfolk pet parents share their Rover experiences
Absolutely wonderful, i feel so lucky we found Brittany! She sent me soo many pics & vids of my baby while in her care & she was clearly having the time of her life! Spoiled with affection, dog park trips & even a spa day where she got her ears cleaned & got a shea butter massage!
Big dog parents, Chellie was absolutely amazing! Our big guy had the best time and came home content! I loved the daily updates and pictures about what he was up to while we were gone and he got lots of play time with new friends. She absolutely knows what she's doing and prioritizes the dogs safety and comfort! Will absolutely be looking to book with her again when we need someone to care for our big baby. 🥰
My dog Luna immediately thought Lily was her bff when they met. She took such good care of our furbaby & even was great at giving last minute medications that Luna needed. Lots of great pictures & fantastic communication. I will definitely be using Lily again next time im out of town.
MarkQueeta was amazing! She was super prepared (even to help me unload and bring my kitty supplies in for boarding) and has plenty of experience with cats, which made me feel super comfortable leaving my kitty with her. She was very kind and even offered to let my cat stay an extra day for free when I had last-minute changes in my plans and had to figure new plans out! I would definitely bring my kitty back again in the future!
My pup had the time of his life!! Genevie made my vacay so much more relaxing by knowing that my pup was being loved and cared for the same as I do at home. She provided many updates which put my mind at ease and really gave top notch service. I will certainly be using her again.
I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Our dog had such a great time, and it was so heartwarming to see how well she got along with your dog. I really appreciated the daily photos and videos — they gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I was able to truly enjoy my trip knowing she was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with you again next time. Thank you so much!
Aaron and his family watched my dog, Matilda, for a few days / nights and I couldn't be more grateful for the care and compassion she received from them. Aaron sent me multiple videos from their walks and even a photo that was 10x better than any of the thousands of photos that I've taken of Matilda. I highly recommend Aaron for all your future dog walkings and/or boardings, your dog will definitely enjoy his or stay!
Elexus was great with communicating and ensuring my boys were safe, happy and stayed tired, lol. She sent photos often and let me know how they were doing each day. She listened attentively to all my information about their personalities and even went the extra mile to wash their sweaters to make sure they went home with clean "clothes" to keep them cozy for the snowstorm. I definitely recommend her.
