House Sitting in North Garden

“Danielle did an AMAZING job taking care of our kitties. One of them needs a lot of medication but that didn’t seem to phase her. They were well taken care of, got very comfortable with her in a short period of time, and we got a lot of adorable pictures. We will definitely be hiring her again.”

“Tessa was amazing with our two hyper dogs! She was patient, kind, and communicative from start to finish. She definitely made us feel comfortable leaving our fur babies for a few days-sending pictures at least once a day! She even washed the bedding and towels before leaving which was so over and above what we ever expected of her. I highly recommend using her for any and all pet needs. We greatly appreciate all she did for us!”

“James is the very best! He went above and beyond for us and took such great care of our dogs, including a four month old puppy who was difficult while we were away. James is considerate, caring and communicative. And we came home to our house in better shape than we left it in for him!”

“Dakota was a wonderful sitter! Dakota came for a meet and greet a few days beforehand, and Wes was immediately relaxed. You can tell how much Dakota cares about taking care of your dog and their individual needs. We got several photos and updates throughout the time Dakota was watching Wes, which really put us at ease. We would absolutely recommend Dakota, and would be happy to have Dakota watch We anytime!”

“Our dogs fell in love with Nathan right from the start. He was great taking them out for walks, feeding them, playing ball with them, and cuddling with them. We will definitely use Nathan again!”

Tracey C.

“Bertie and Lissette's family were amazing! They took great care of my puppy and were very responsive and easy to communicate with. I will definitely contact them again the next time I am in Charlottesville.”

About: I love dogs! I’ve always had at least one dog at home, so I’ve truly been working with them as long as I can remember. Animals have always brought me so much comfort, and I hope to do the same for them :) I have some free time this summer and would love to fill it by helping others. I love meeting new furry friends and getting outside and moving! I am very gentle and loving with all animals. Kids are not really my thing, so I’ve always taken a special liking towards pets. I have great outdoor space at my home if that’s something you’re interested in and in general just love to spend time outside.

“Bailey is awesome! She tended to our 8 week old puppy and 5 year old ferret within a weeks notice. She is very professional, understanding, attentive, and asks good questions. She also sent us pictures while on the job which made me feel at ease. With Bailey, you can be rest assured your fur babies are receiving the best care available! We will be continuing care with her.”

“Star made us feel at ease leaving Archie at home for the longest time we have been apart since he has been with us. Because she stayed in our home, Archie benefitted from being in his familiar surroundings and we had bonus house sitting services as well. Star was a great communicator and made sure to understand Archie's routines and preferences before our trip. We are so grateful for the care Star (and partner, Jack) provided and would recommend them highly.”

About: I have a large family dog that I have been responsible for since I was about 10 years old. She has since gotten older so I have experience with a senior dog and giving any sorts of medication (and the peanut butter necessary to get her to take it). I am no stranger to having to clean up any accidents in the house so that is a non-issue for me. I am also open to taking care of other animals like rodents or turtles or other cage creatures. I am a true and passionate animal lover! My schedule is very flexible at the moment. I am happy to give as much or little time needed for the pets. I can figure out any scheduling and details necessary with clients. I am never loud coming into a home. I always let the pets come to me unless they are hiding on purpose. I take care instructions very seriously and will follow everything exactly and will reach out if I have questions about the best way I can care for your fur friend.

“Although Jonathan (Jack) has a profile that is new to Rover, he does a FANTASTIC job in caring for animals and has tons of previous experience. Jack watched our 2 dogs in our home while we were away for several days. He was communicative, let us know how the dogs were doing and updated us with photos. We were able to take our vacation with peace of mind that our dogs were being well cared for, and it certainly showed when we returned home to get back into our normal routine. We will certainly rebook with Jack in the future!”

About: I am comfortable with all kinds of dogs and needs. I personally care for a GSD and a Heeler mix, and am comfortable with rambunctious and large dogs. Both of my dogs practice loose leash walking, and I love using our walks as time to tire their brains as well as their bodies. I can give medications, including subq and other injections. And I’m working on becoming a certified trainer, but for now I do not offer training services. I work a few part time gigs that change with the seasons. I have lots of flexibility to meet the needs of your pets. I generally do not go out of town during major holidays. I have lived on estates as a property manager, and ran my own home repair business for several years. I’m good at handling emergencies, and enjoy fixing things when I have the opportunity

About: What sets me apart is the level of love, patience, and personalized care I give every pet. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. I’m experienced with puppies who need consistency, potty breaks, playtime, and basic routine reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may need a gentler pace, extra patience, medication support, or additional comfort. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents always know their furry family members are happy and well cared for. I’m able to help out on Monday-Friday or Saturdays and Sundays. Let me know what fits your needs and I will be more then happy to accommodate! I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Especially in their own home. I do not accept boarding as my currently home is renting.

“Paris is great! Took awesome care of my dog, all with relatively short notice. :)”

“Zach was a new sitter to our family and I am so glad we met him through Rover! He took the absolute best care of our dog and cats, and our house, while we were away for a few days. It was so nice knowing our furry family members were in great hands. He definitely treated them like his own and I have a feeling they're going to miss him now that we're home! We can't wait to have Zach back again!”

“Anna was great! She took great care of my dog and my place while I was gone! She communicates well, sends frequent updates. Will rebook with her in the future!”

About: I have had a dog my whole life. After my old family dog passed I decided it was time to get a puppy. After months of working closely with my pup she has succeeded in recall, leash walking, show tricks and more! She is great with other dogs and would love to hangout with your pup! I am home for the summer from college with no other interfering work plans so your dog will be at the top of my list every day!! I am always alert of other dogs around, I stay away from the street, I always have a plan so you’ll know where I am and when I’ll be back with your furry friend

“Megan was spectacular, stepping in with very short notice to dog sit my puppy for a week when my original sitter canceled a few days before I left. She took very good care of my dog a provided some very cute photos of the fun they were having”

Matthew C.

“Definitely one of my favorite pet sitters that I have worked with since using Rover. Communicated really well throughout the stay. I got lots of picture updates. With the weather changing, he had no issue putting both dogs in sweaters. I felt so confident that they were receiving the best care possible.”

Lydia J.

“Keri was great with our pups! She took them to a park and sent so many picture and videos of them and it looks like they had a blast. Highly recommend!”
