“Emily is very responsible, she drove from far away and even with the bad traffic she managed to make it to take care of Hazel. She treated my little girl with love and care, she did everything that I asked of her. She also sent me pictures and videos while I was away. Hazel loved her! I highly recommend her to take care of your pet.”

About: Life is Good with pets! I have been providing professional pet care services for dogs for over 5 years. I have always had different dogs in my life from childhood to adulthood. I’ve seen how happy my own pet is from taking him on regular walks and I am excited to provide this same experience for other pets. I have a large, fenced yard in a semi-rural neighborhood, and I enjoy taking dogs on nice long walks. Pets are allowed on furniture to snuggle and I am also happy to crate train pets, if preferred. I am currently working from home, so I have most of my time to give attention and love to your pet. I am happy to provide these services at all times. I have plenty space and a fenced yard for your pet to play or simple go on potty breaks, if needed. The services requested will be depending on the customers offer :)

About: Hi! I am Briana I have 8 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats, and I would love to take care of your furry friends! I have lots of energy and would love to walk/play with your fur babies. I have experience administering medication to animals, and aiding my elderly dog in her declining health. I’m currently out of school for the summer so I have plenty of time to take care of pets. Time with your pets will not be rushed. I can crate your dog if needed even if they are big/stubborn I am very strong even though I don’t look it this also goes for walking, I can ensure your dog doesn’t get off of the leash. I will make sure to leave a clients home just as I found it and I am not afraid to pick up poop.

“She seems to love her job and love my pets like her own. She’s won over my most shy dog. She’s reliable and a sweet lady.”

About: Ever since I have been a pet sitter, I treat every animal as if they are my own. I instantly fall in love with every animal I meet and create great bonds with my furry friends. When not at my 9-5, I always make time for my animals. I love taking morning and evening walks and playing fetch. Weekends I even take adventures with them. When taking care of pets, I treat them as if they are my own children. I never want them to feel nervous and upset, I try to give them the best experiences I can.

“Darian was amazing! She house sat for our three cats, two dogs, and backyard chickens. She gave us peace of mind knowing she was responsible, caring, and professional. She really cared for our animals like they were her own. We will definitely be asking her to take care of our girls again in the future and I would recommend her to anyone.”


“Megan was great. She kept us updated daily with the dogs. Made things stress free while we was gone. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”


“Shayna was wonderful! My husband and I have been looking for a dog sitter for a while and we haven't been able to find someone that we liked. I am so thankful we found Shayna! Dolce loved her! And we did as well ! I would highly recommend her”


About: I absolutely love animals and would consider it an honor to care for your furry family members when the need arises. I worked as a part-time pet and house sitter for 3 plus years in Northern Virginia and only stopped when I moved to Stephens City. I am looking forward starting up again to earn a little extra income. I am experienced in house sitting as well. Feel free to contact me with any questions.

“Alyssa was an awesome sitter! My dog can be shy around new people and she did an amazing job getting my dog to warm up to her and she was excellent with sending updates and pictures! Will definitely use her again!!”


“Allyson is a gentle spirit and wonderful cat sitter. I call her the cat whisperer, as she gets our nervous Frida out from hiding under the bed and snuggling in her lap. We come home to happy kitties every time. We highly recommend Allyson.”


About: I have experience with cats and dogs, but I am open to try working with all animals! I am a retired social worker with 32 years of caring for seniors and foster children. I have a caring heart and I would have lots more pets if I could. This will give me the opportunity to love your animals and fill my heart. I retired two years ago after 32 years in the social services industry and I just finished my first year of substitute teaching part-time. I love animals and have heard great reviews for Rover. I have a fenced in back yard because I have one small 5 year old Teddy Bear. I have two extra cranes that I can use, if needed. I also have a garage, just in case. My husband is also retired and an animal lover, in case I need help. We also visit dog parks, if that is an option for your dog. Also live in a walking development. Our dog loves cartruck rides, so that is an option.

“Katie was absolutely amazing. Our retriever was quite anxious about us leaving, and she quickly calmed him. He was great with her. Both of the pups were happy and behaved as though we never left. We will definitely be reaching out again!”

About: I grew up taking care of all kinds of animals including chickens, goats, cows, pigs, and of course cats and dogs. I’ve independently cared for animals since I can remember! I am a student at Virginia Tech with a pretty flexible schedule. I have time in between my classes to be able to let your animals outside or just spend time with them! Because I live in an apartment, I unfortunately cannot house animals with me in my home. However, I am happy to take them on walks and hang out with them at their home.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12 years old. I grew up in a neighborhood so it wasn’t hard to find people who needed pet care. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me for overnight, boarding, walking and feeding. I am not currently working full time so I have plenty of free time to take care of your pets. It will switch to evenings and weekends once I start work again. Neighbors have always trusted me to be in their homes and with their pets. I have watched them for weeks at a time so this required being unsupervised with access to the property
