“My little guy does not warm up quickly but Morgan was great with him! She sent lots of pictures and videos for the week I was gone and I felt like he was well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend Morgan!”

“Kira was amazing and the peace of mind we needed for our time away from home! She was so amenable to all the craziness of our cat-filled home, and was so kind, friendly, and respectful! Our multiple cat home was in great hands! We came back to a clean home, and five happy kitties! We will definitely book with Kira again for our next trip!”

“Jessica and Kristen were great! Took excellent care of our house and pup. Super communicative, we got updates and cute pics every day we were gone. Highly recommend!”

“Carson was the absolute best! He had great communication and sent me pictures of my pets every day! He was more than willing to administer meds to my pups and help them stay calm during the 4th of July weekend! He put my mind at ease and I knew I could trust him with my home and my fur babies! 10/10 would recommend!”

“Ashley is always so courteous and patient with me and my time. She took great care of Tokyo and she’s very responsive to what I need. I came home and my dog looked like he was well taken care of while I was away. Thank you Ashley. I will be booking more experiences with her. 🥰”

“Emily was very prompt to respond to the booking request. I introduced her to my dogs and explained what I wanted when we met in person. She posted pictures and kept me informed twice a day about how my dogs were doing. I am very pleased with how she took care of my dogs. I would definitely recommend Emily to anyone looking for a dog sitter. I plan to use her again, when needed.”

“Eric took great care of my 4 babies while I was away for surgery. He made a stressful trip more manageable for me, knowing I had a reliable and experienced sitter who could stay in my home where my pets feel most safe. I've had situations in the past where my trips were disrupted due to my dogs anxious barking, but Eric won my babies over and had no issues at all with them. I'd highly recommend Eric.”

“Khaleigh was great! We always feel nervous leaving our pets and she helped us feel relaxed and comfortable with them in her care. She was able to follow our instructions for 6 pets (3 cats and 3 dogs) including medication administration, senior dog care, and mobility assistance. She communicated with us and we felt they were very safe and cared for.”

“It was my first time leaving my fur baby with a sitter but Tiffany was GREAT!! She sent me daily updates/pics of Eclipse and she’s great at communicating. Eclipse was comfortable with her and I’ll definitely be booking her again.”

“Dan was able to help on very short notice. My dog is older and there was not a lot required but she liked Dan and was affection with them which is not always the case.”

“Kimberlee was an excellent sitter for our two dogs. One of our dogs is very anxious and takes a long time to warm up to people, but she quickly warmed up to Kimberlee. Kimberlee kept our house tidy and even watered our plants. We would definitely book with Kimberlee again.”

“Brittany did an amazing job keeping our two dogs company while we were away! Our Greyhound and our cranky senior Chihuahua seemed very happy with her, so we are very grateful. She was able to administer complicated medication regimens for both of them and even earned the Chihuahua’s affection by day two. Everyone was safe and sound and got plenty of snuggles! Thank you, Brittany!”
“Rammiyah was great with my Great Dane Journey, who has severe separation issues. When we got back Journey was calm and no signs of stress or anxiety. I can't thank Rammiyah enough for taking such great care of my baby!”


“Ashley was fantastic—super communicative, sent tons of great pics, and our pets instantly felt comfortable around her (even our shy cat came out right away). The dog got plenty of walks, play time, and snuggles. She kept us updated, brought in our trash bins without being asked (thanks!), and somehow left the place looking better than we did. Friendly, relaxed, and genuinely caring. Highly recommend.”


About: I have loved and taken care of pets for neighbors and friends for 5+ years as well as my own dogs my entire life. I have a lot of experience caring for animals. I am a college student who is looking for a side job such as pet sitting, while I am still pursuing my degree. My love for animals makes this the perfect job for me. Since I will be out of school for summer break, I have a a lot of availability throughout the week! In my clients home, I make sure all pets are well cared for, and I make sure to keep them happy by playing with them and keeping them well fed with fresh water and I can always take them outside as much as the customer would like.
“I was very nervous about going on vacation for five days leaving my animals, but I found Abigail on Rover and she was absolutely amazing. I’ve told my friends about her. She took very good care of my animals. I would definitely recommend her. She gave me detailed information and updates on my babies. Thank you Abigail. You are the best.”

“I highly recommend Eric! As a pet sitter myself, it’s tough leaving your beloved animals with someone else, but Eric took wonderful care of our two rescue dogs and one rescue cat. He provided daily updates with pictures … and we came back to happy animals and a clean home😊 Do yourself a favor and book him!”

Rockbridge pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sara stayed with our babies while we were gone for four days and she made me feel so comfortable. I have an anxious dog (or maybe I'm the anxious one) and after the first night he warmed up. She treated our other dog like the princess she is and loved them both how they needed. She kept our house so clean and we can't wait to have her back

I just wanted to saw we are new to the area and we were looking for a reliable, safe person to care for our pets. We were able to connect with Morgan and she took care of all 4 of our babies and made sure to give us constant updates. Our torte who isn’t the most friendly of cats, ended up laying on Morgan’s lap and spending a lot of time with her :) We had an emergency at the end of our vacation and Morgan was willing to stay extra to look after our pets to help us out. We will be using her from here on out whenever we need help with our babies. She has a real talent for this kind of work!!!
