“Great dog vacay! They have another dog so my pup was nice and worn out when we picked him up for our 12 hour drive home! I would recommend him to anyone else looking for a dog sitter in Harrisonburg,VA”


“Joanna and her husband did a fantastic job of making Nikita feel comfortable and welcome! Kita takes a while to warm up to new people and places and has abandonment issues and anxiety when I'm gone, but after her first visit she was excited to get back to Joanna and her pup Azul! I also felt so much more comfortable about leaving Kita with Joanna because she was amazing about updating me and sending pictures of Kita! Altogether, Kita and I had a wonderful experience! Thanks, Joanna!! :))”


“We truly appreciate Brandy! We booked very last minute with brandy. Being on vacation we brought our epileptic pup and he wasn’t coping well in a new place being alone. So we downloaded this app for the first time and booked with her while we went out. She responded when I checked on him, and sent me pictures of him while he was with her. We are even booked an extra day with her while we were here because he did so well in her care! Thank you Brandy !!”


“Amanda was such a great puppy partner for Samosa! This was our first Rover experience — and it was a beautiful one! She was accommodating and was a safe person for Samosa to get to know. Samosa is a more anxious puppy and Amanda was patient with her and Samosa warmed up :) thank you so much Amanda!!!!”


“This is our first time using an on line sitting service and Cory made it so easy, helping us feel very comfortable leaving our 6mo. old Berniedoodle for the first time. Cory obviously loves animals and we look forward to scheduling with him again.”


About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 5 years old. I know the importance of routine and a peaceful environment for pets who are away from home. I also trained dogs for special services and obedience, so I have the inside scoop on dog-language. I work from home, so I am available at all times. We love to take walks. We have a very predictable home routine and value a peaceful calm home where pets can enjoy themselves. When in our home, your pet will have his or her own space. We have a lead so that your pet can enjoy outdoor time. We have a quiet open back yard with plenty of space. We are always around, so the pet will always be accounted for. When caring for your pet in your home, I will be sure to respect your entry/exit requests, and make sure your pet is comfortable and safe.

About: I’ve been taking care of various animals particularly dogs for the past 16 years of my life. I thoroughly enjoyed being around dogs and have plenty of time to care for and look after yours as well I am a stay at home parent with full availability throughout the day to look after and care for your pet. My full attention will go towards your loved one I have a very large fenced in backyard, and a nice walking trail behind my house. I also am able to take your dog to the dog park as well as local parks around the city

About: Have you ever wished you had someone who could take care of your pets like you do? Here I am!! My dogs are my babies! I have 2 Male Labradors named Tank(2) and Nash(5months)! I have always struggled with finding someone I TRUST watching my pets, I want them to be treated how I treat them! With treats, toys and walks! I will be offering walks, potty breaks, treats (unless you have a pet with food restrictions please bring your own) if they are water babies I will take them swimming! Required: Please also provide documentation of vaccinations, and flea/tick/heart worm Required: Please make sure your dogs are friendly with other dogs before booking! I work from home Monday-Friday and weekends I am available. Please just make sure your pets are friendly. My dogs are not neutered. Thank you! My pets are supervised at ALL times since I work from home. We do have a fenced in area where the dogs can play outside. We do reside in a 5th wheel that is very spacious! Dogs are allowed on the couch or dog bed. If you bring your own dog bed please make sure it is clean! If I am watching at someone’s home, I will make sure messes are cleaned along with treats given if told so. Along with walks, we like to take our dogs to Coyners dog park and let them play. If your dog is not friendly this is not the fit for you.


“Stacy and her family are wonderful! They were so kind and sweet with our pup. She sent updates throughout the day and Hope seemed very calm and happy when we picked her up! We would highly recommend Stacy to anyone looking for attentive and personalized pet care!”


About: Energetic, up and coming dog trainer! I studied for two years at a shop with a dog nutritionist, have apprenticed with a dog trainer for the past year, and just completed a six month program with Highland Canine Dog Training in North Carolina. My love for dogs really started upon volunteering to walk dogs at my local animal shelter and continued to helping with my reactive family pup become her best confident self. I love working with any and all pets including but not limited to puppies, senior dogs, large breeds, anxious pets, cats and even small animals including rats. Any help I can offer with your pet I am here for it! I work part time throughout the week but I officially started my dog training business Howl to Heel LLC and that is my main priority! I will do anything to work in my pet parents into my schedule and offer all assistance needed! I have my dogs fully vaccinated, crate trained and constantly active with new training goals. I have experience working with all different dog breeds and ages. I have taken courses in dog body language to help navigate communication with our furry friends to know when a little help is needed. I always check in with owners in food restrictions and keep a close eye on every pet I watch to keep everybody out of harms way!

“Laura was great! This was my first time using Rover, and she truly went above and beyond my expectations. She was always quick to respond to my texts, gave great updates, and really seemed to care about my dog while I was away. I highly recommend Laura, and will definitely be using her again in the near future!”


About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and have taken care of relatives and friends dogs for years. I’ve helped my parents raise their dog from little to her seniorhood. I am home all throughout the day on weekdays and weekends!! I love animals and would be happy to work around someone’s busy schedule. I can travel to meet you at your need! I’ll work with your preferences and special needs. I can come walk your dog and stop by to make sure they are doing okay if need be. Every dog type, size, and age I can care for and have no problem being around and playing with. I would love to help you out and watch after your loved pets! I am able to care for dogs every day from morning to night as I am home during that time. I am able to fully provide all my attention to your pet. I live in a very safe and walkable neighborhood with a wonderful walking path. I also live a street away from a clean and safe dog park, that at your discretion would be happy to take your dog to.

“Megan was quick to respond, easy to work with, and Winston had a great time! I loved getting a pic midday.”


About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all sizes and ages all of my life! I also love cats and have grown up caring for them. I am currently a student and while my classes are during the day, they only last about 4 hours so I can be home with your pups most of the day! The pets will always be loved, cared for, and taken outside regularly. Making sure the pets are safe and cared for is my top priority.

About: I've owned and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, from raising litters of puppies to nursing sick kittens back to health. I’ve trained working ranch dogs, cared for senior pets, and managed special diets. I work from home, so your pet gets my full attention. Whether it’s playtime, walks, meals, or cuddles, their needs come first, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I provide loving, attentive pet care in my home or yours, following routines, ensuring proper nutrition, exercise, and comfort. Whether it's walks, playtime, or special needs, I treat them like family.

Charity & Fabien P.
“We have gone through several dog sitters trying to find someone who is a perfect fit for our dog, Mila. From our meet and greet I knew Charity was who we needed. Dependable, trustworthy, and I can tell she’s got a soft spot for animals (she told us she even raised a service dog for a child with autism- how cool!) My dog loved her right off the bat and she listened to all of our preferences to a t. Charity was always on time and did everything that was asked of her. Not sure we will ever use anyone else!”

I received daily updates with photos and little notes that made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It’s clear that Brooke genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. My pet came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I’m so grateful to have found someone so reliable, kind, and attentive. I won’t use anyone else— She is our go-to from now on!”
