“We really appreciated James dropping in to let out our two adult dogs (Doberman and American Bulldog) and walking our 13 month old Doberman while we were out of town for the day! All three of our dogs absolutely adore him, and he is so good with them. We especially appreciated him walking our youngest dog, whose energy, size, and short attention span make that no small task!”

“Dakota was friendly, flexible, and reliable. Sam always enjoyed his time with Dakota. Dakota interspersed neighborhood walks & trips to the dog park with visits to Barnes & Noble and other places. We will use Dakota again without reservation and highly recommend him to care for your pet.”

“Rachel S. Was amazing with our dog! She was super. Communicative, professional and kept us updated multiple times a day. When we got home our dog was well fed, tired from so many great walks and happy and well taken care of. We highly recommend her.”

“Christian has been such a blessing for us during the last month! She has been so accommodating with our schedule and the needs of our two pups, Finn and Otis. Christian is attentive, caring, and she goes above and beyond when she’s working with us and our dogs. She is a great communicator and is always punctual. We are so lucky to have found her!”

“Thanks so much to Tracy for all her help. Despite the cold and ice she took care of Sunny every morning. He enjoyed walks with her, playing and she gave him his food and water every morning. He's picky with people since he was adopted and she has been so great with him. Love the photos and updates. Thank you Tracy!”

“Amy is truly amazing! She takes the time to play with your pet if the weather is yucky and they can’t get the full walk in outside. Highly recommend!”

“Tessa was wonderful with Tigo! She was prompt and generous with her time. She not only walked him but also took him to a field to play with balls, his favorite activity!”

About: Because I grew up with 3 dogs and 4 cats, my friends and family know to reach out to me to feed, walk, and bathe their pets. I have also had to give medicine to some of the pets I've cared for, so giving your dog or cat pills won't be a problem. I am currently a Graduate student at UVA taking summer classes and want to care for some pets on the weekends or on Mondays when my schedule allows for it. Since I don't have pets here, I would love to give all my love and attention to yours! I know how much our pets mean to us, and I would make sure to follow any special instructions you have for your pets. I've been around dogs and cats since I was 5, so I can read pets' body language well. I always let the dog/cat approach me before initiating any petting because I know some pets are a little nervous around new people.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life—growing up with both big and small dogs, and currently a proud cat owner. I’ve cared for pets of friends, neighbors, and family, handling everything from feeding and walking to bathing and playtime. I’m reliable, responsible, and genuinely love animals. You can count on me to treat your pet like one of my own. I am currently a Graduate student at UVA with a flexible schedule that allows me to drop by in between classes to walk and play with your pet! With that, I am typically more available in mornings and evenings, but can accommodate a variety of needs! When caring for pets in their own home, I always prioritize keeping their routines consistent and their environment safe. I follow all instructions closely, keep the space clean, and ensure your pet gets the love, attention, and exercise they’re used to. I treat your home with the same respect I would my own.
About: Hi, I'm Lindsay! 35 year old, non-delicate, fun-loving, and high spirited animal caregiver. I've had dogs at home from infancy through adulthood, and I love cats just as much! I'm comfortable walking big/small dogs and dogs that pull are not an issue. I have no allergies and love all animals, whether its dogs, cats, reptiles, birds- not about spiders though... Getting outside- to the beach, for a nice walk or just a good hike are some of my favorite activities and I'm crazy for exercise! I'd love to hang out with your animal family! I work full time but am currently remote 2 days a week! I have a dog named Goose who gets along with everyone who loves to walk and hike. In my home, I ensure to child proof anything your pet could get into that would be unsafe and give them lots of belly rubs and love. In your home, I would keep them under close watch to know that they aren’t getting into anything that could hurt them or could hurt your property.

“Thank you Kris! My pups always look so happy in the pictures with you and it’s the best thing in the world having a peace of mind that they are being taken care so well!”

“Britney walked Veolia and Zack twice each week over the holidays and was always right on time and was very good with handling both dogs together each time, as Veiola has a single mindset on a walk to explore everything she can. We would highly recommend her.”
“Alice was really accommodating by helping me out at the last minute. She was prompt in her responses through the app and send good communications and my dog. Great service! Thank you!”

About: I've been caring for pets for years and have always been surrounded by animals. I grew up with cats and black Labrador Retriever. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and energy levels, from puppies and kittens to senior pets who need extra patience and care. I’m also experienced in handling leash training, and recognizing behavioral cues to ensure pets feel safe and loved! I’m currently only offering weekends until I figure out my schedule for the summer since I’m working part time and doing research! I can do house-sitting/overnight stays, drop ins, and walking! I'm happy to go on long walks or to the park for some fun! For lower-energy dogs, I'm just as content to relax with them or enjoy some calm time outside.
About: I have cared for dogs for a little over six years and have a lot of experience with them. I am a dog lover and know exactly how to keep them happy and healthy while their families are away! I am currently working part-time, so I will have more than enough time to care for your home, pups, and anything else you may need! I care for pets by ensuring that they are always given food and water, going outside frequently, and having someone to play with hem and pet them.

Thanks so much to Tracy for all her help. Despite the cold and ice she took care of Sunny every morning. He enjoyed walks with her, playing and she gave him his food and water every morning.

Julie is a very kind and reliable dog sitter! She walked my dog Ivy every week this summer and boarded Ivy in her home for a weekend. She is very responsive to messages and provides detailed Rover card walk recaps. Ivy seems to love her time with her. Thank you, Julie!

My senior dogs are more excited to see Claire than they are to see me! They love her! And I love how consistent, reliable, kind, and flexible she is. The pics she sends are great, especially of her smart watch that tracks her steps during their walks. She has provided me assurance that my dogs are being exercised by a wonderful person while I'm away, and I can't thank her enough for that peace of mind.
