“Max had a great time with Rebecca! She did an awesome job of communicating with me about his day and she was flexible with my work hours! Max was well cared for, and I would definitely book with Rebecca again :)”

“Paula took excellent care of our dog Loki. We were visiting from out of town and need a place for Loki while we visited older relatives. Paula was good with communication and Loki came back all happy. Definitely recommend!”
“Bertie was amazing! It was my first time using Rover as a pet owner, and I needed a sitter for the day while on vacation. My puppy is still fairly young and is very attached to me, but she appeared to settle in pretty quickly and have a great time with some other pups. Bertie stayed in touch while I was out, sending pics and updates, and even recommended some great local spots to check out. Super happy with this experience!”

“Carolyn was an absolute gem with Stella. She was super responsive, provided fun photos & videos throughout the day, and provided me with a nice wrap up of the day when I picked Stella up. For the first time ever, Stella did not seem to want to come home! I will be rebooking with Carolyn very soon and highly recommend her for all your doggy needs.”

“Awesome dog sitter! I was in Charlottesville for an interview, and needed a sitter pretty last minute. Caroline was super responsive, sent me so many cute updates, pictures and videos during the day. Raina had so much fun playing with the other dogs, and I would 100% rebook if I’m in the area in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Many thanks to Hannah for watching our pup! Drop-off and pick-up was easy, Hannah herself was kind and personable; I could tell picking our dog up that she had a blast and was very comfortable at Hannah's home. Our dog got plenty of exercise over there! She curled up on the bed upon getting home :) Overall great experience!”

“We were impressed with Jessica’s care for our border collie mix Boots for a very long day care day. Boots enjoyed the fenced-in yard and romping with another visiting dog. With a lovely, flexible, positive personality, Jess made us feel assured that Boots was being well taken care of. We would highly recommend her to others and will definitely seek her services again, when we return to town and need temporary dog care.”


“Mary and her family did such an amazing job taking care of Buttercup. I definitely felt very comfortable each day and prior to booking. Mary worked with my early morning drop offs and long work hours which is much appreciated. The frequent pictures and updates were an added bonus. I definitely look forward to booking in the future! Thank you so much again”

“Athena had another amazing time with Svitlana at her home! They played in the backyard and met a new dog friend, which got Athena into the nap mode. Look forward to our next meeting!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Bowie! Jayden was wonderful from start to finish. He kept us updated throughout our time away with regular messages and adorable photos of Bowie, which gave us peace of mind. It was clear that Bowie was well cared for and happy. Jayden’s communication was excellent - they were always responsive and proactive about letting us know how things were going. I came back to one very content puppy! I would absolutely book with Jayden again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter.”


“Rachel went out of her way to provide Hazel with exceptional care. I received many cute updates throughout the day and at the end of the day picked up a happy and tired girl!”

“Isaiah was an a amazing sitter! We needed him last minute as we found out late about meeting a friend that was from Germany. He was very transparent when it came to how my Cali was that day and what his plans were to keep them busy. He asks all the questions and was VERY, VERY patient with us.”

“Kirtly was very responsive, and gave a ton of feedbacks on the daycare session with our two dogs, one of which a 2 month old puppy. Will definitely book with Kirtly again.”

“Brooke is a fabulous person. Three couples descended on her with three dogs and she never batted an eye. There were updates and pictures during their stay. You are the best Brooke. Thank you.”

“lily and i love and absolutely adore jenny! she is so attentive and i can tell lily gets all the loving when she is with jenny. she provides tons of updates (i seriously know a play by play of lily’s day with her) and is very responsive. lily always comes back SO happy and tired, it’s no question that jenny provides the best care. it’s very clear that she wants the best for your pet and will go above and beyond for them. if there is anyone you choose to watch your furry family, it definitely should be jenny!! i seriously don’t know what i would do without her!! ❤️”

About: Having had dogs and cats my entire life, I am well prepared to take care of your furry friend. Having had a dog with severe allergies, I am also prepared to take care of any pets with chronic health conditions that require more attention As a medical student in a hybrid learning environment, I have a flexible schedule that provides me the time to tend to your pets as needed. Caring for my own dog, your pet can fit seamlessly into our schedule for walks, bathroom breaks, and play time. I take all pets on several walks a day, providing them ample time to exercise and play outside. In caring for my clients home, I will make sure their pet abides by all house rules and maintain a clean living space for their home.
About: My love for dogs has grown since my first childhood dog. With over 10 years of experience working with animals, I now run a dog bandana business. I've worked with dogs of all ages and sizes, and I truly enjoy meeting new furry friends. I'm also very active and would love to take your pup on walks or runs to help burn off those zoomies! I am currently a graduate student at UVA and have a lot of free time during the week! I am able to do drop in or walks often, as my schedule is flexible! I live in an apartment that has a few great dog parks and a lot of grass to run around and walk. There are also walking trails super close that would be great.
About: Hello! I’v had dogs my entire life, as well as rabbits, birds, cats and more dogs! I’m doggy free of my own at the moment so I thought now would be a great time to start Rover. Can’t wait to meet your pup! I am currently at home a lot so I have a very open schedule to care for your animal and am very flexible. Thanks ! I can do drop ins to visit your dogs, or I am available for walks and feedings. Just let me know how I can help
About: I’ve lived around animals my entire life, and I have endless love and patience for animals of all kinds. My number one priority is to make your animal feel cared for. I’m currently working a part time job that I spend about 15 hours at a week, but my hours are very flexible and I can work around almost anything! I will take pets on walks and/or feed them, give them water and make sure they have everything they need to be happy and healthy I have my own dogs that I care for throughout the day, but as a part time worker I have a lot of free time in the day to tend to your pets needs! I can stay with your pets in their own home, and I have my own dog who is very sweet who loves to make new friends. My goal is to spend quality time with your pets and make them feel cared for in the time I spend with them.
“Jani and Paul are amazing sitters for my dog, Lucky! 🐾 I always pick him up from their home and he’s happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. They’re so reliable and thorough and always fill out his report card right away, so I know exactly how his stay went. I really appreciate the care and attention they give him. Highly recommend!”

First time booking on rover so I was a bit nervous. I booked doggy day care and Madison provided updates with pictures throughout the stay. She was very accommodating with drop off and pick times and was very responsive to communication. My pup is usually nervous at drop off but that changes by the time I pick her up, I was happy to see them walking so seamlessly when I got back, and bonus points for getting her to take a nap. Will definitely book again.
