“Angel was absolutely amazing! She is attentive and responsive. Angel sent me multiple texts and pictures during my doggy’s stay. Angel made this experience wonderful. I had such a pleasant experience that my doggy will be a returning guest! 😊”

“Bethany had done a great job watching our two little messes. I received daily updates/ pictures. This assured me of their great care. In addition she reached out when one had too many treats and vomited. lol. I highly recommend this sitter who clearly loves fur babies.”

“I’ve heard of Rover app but not really familiar with it. Erika is AMAZING! She has given our dog great care while we were gone. I felt like it was last minute but she was definitely able to accommodate us d/t family emergency. She updated us everyday thru the app and even sent pictures! Her own dog is great with our dog as well. We will definitely book again with her to watch our dog.”


“Came to the rescue with the need of a last minute booking. My puppy enjoyed himself I’m sure as the family had him active and was having fun with him. He was returned exactly how I left him and was content when I came to pick him up. Katy also sent pics, was flexible and was very communicative. I will definitely feel comfortable leaving him with her and her family again and would recommend her to many other new time puppy parents. Thank you again 🐾❤️”

“Ms. Vanessa Gladys is wonderful! So happy we found her! We were very concerned about leaving our doggie for 2 weeks to go to Europe to see family and after stressful research I am so glad I reached out to Vanessa! She has a great set up in her cozy home for the dogs she takes in and she is very reliable and trustworthy. We left her with many little tasks and information about our fairly senior dog and she followed all our instructions and kept great communication with us accompanied by pictures almost daily! She even posed the doggies in cute surroundings with the Christmas decorations. You are special Ms. Vanessa! We could tell you really enjoy watching over the dogs and caring for them. Thank you!”


“Sabrina is excellent with our 6 month old puppy. She sent us pictures or a video every day that showed he was having a great time. Everything was packed up and freshly washed when we picked him up. She even improved his skill of walking on a leash! I will definitely use her again.”

“Amazing family to leave your dogs with. I felt very comfortable with Brianne and her family taking care of Maya and Luna. I was nervous by leaving my dogs behind but she made it very easy by sending pictures on a daily basis. I will highly recommend Brianne.”

“Ashley was so great at taking care of our dog. She was so communicative and flexible and understanding and helped our pup feel better when he missed being away from home. We are so grateful she took care of him and helped him feel more comfortable.”

“They were absolutely amazing constantly kept me up-to-date with lots of pictures. They were super good with him letting him get used to them taking their time. He had such a great time. Definitely will always come back to them.”

“Abigail did such a wonderful job of taking care of my dog Ginger and provided us with lots of updates so we could see what she was up to while we were away. I am very picky about who I leave my fur baby with and I would recommend her to anyone!”

“Christina was awesome!! She was very attentive, took great care of our dog, made him feel comfortable, and kept us updated on how he was doing. Would definitely recommend using Christina if you need a great sitter!”

“Alexis helped me with a super last minute rebooking for Thanksgiving and she was great. She allowed us to do a meet and greet prior which really helped. Ryder seemed to have enjoyed himself! She sent plenty of pics!”

“Our dogs were spoiled the entire time, no issues whatsoever. We received lots of pictures and updates. We are thrilled with Lauren and her family! We will definitely be asking again for the next time! A+++++”

“She was extremely friendly, has a very dog-friendly house, and had all of the dogs under control. We were nervous leaving a tiny puppy with a sitter, but she sent multiple pictures and updates about our pup. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“My little girls were loved on & cared for so well by Jessica & her sweet kiddos!🥰!! Loved the pics that she sent & great communication!! Will definitely use again!!💗🐶”

Roanoke pet parents share their Rover experiences
We left out Rocky for a one-day boarding and couldn't be happier with the experience! Toyin was absolutely wonderful — she gave his medicines on time, took him out for a walk, and sent us timely updates throughout the day so we always knew he was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

Definitely recommend Zoie had the best time ever. I am so thankful for Lauren and her family for watching my dog Zoie. They went out of their way to make Zoie feel like apart of their family and that means more to me than anything. Looking forward to Zoie’s next stay with them.

I'm so happy I went with Melissa! I looked at about 8 sitters before deciding on her and the searching was worth it. I went out of town for a few days and needed someone to watch my new 10 month old chiweenie puppy. Some sitters had big dogs and she's too little for that, and others had a tiny yard without much room for her to run around. Melissa however has a big house with room for her to run around and play with a nice backyard for her to run around and play outside too. Her kids are lovely and had a great time playing with her, especially her daughter ❤️ I would happily leave my baby here again

My cats did great there. My 2 cats are scared of everyone and any new place but felt safe enough to come out on their own at night. My third cat was taken care of well and seemed very happy. Got a few pictures sent to me during the stay as well! He very flexible with my schedule and timing for me and my cats and my budget. Very grateful

Raphaela is appreciated for taking such wonderful care of our diabetic dog, Bonnie. She was reliable and followed all instructions for her insulin injections perfectly. She sent us regular updates and photos while we were away. We came home to a happy, healthy Bonnie. Highly recommend!
