1. Allison M.

“Great communication and helped me out last minute. Works with dogs and was able to initiate crate training and “nap time” for my new puppy. Thank you so much!”




2. Charissa G.


“My dogs absolutely loved being here! They are a wonderful and friendly couple with a great environment for the dogs. I have a noise sensitive dog who gets very stressed in a boarding or daycare facility, so I'm always looking for home environments where they will get great care and be treated like family. This is among the best I have ever found and I would definitely bring my dogs back again.”


3. Paula C.

“Paula took excellent care of our dog Loki. We were visiting from out of town and need a place for Loki while we visited older relatives. Paula was good with communication and Loki came back all happy. Definitely recommend!”


4. Rebecca P.

“Rebecca is an amazing pet caretaker. She is thoughtful, attentive and knowledgeable. I felt good knowing my dog was with her and my dog, who is shy at first, came out of her shell and had a great time!”


5. Carolyn & Jeremy C.


“So glad I recently found Carolyn for occasional doggie daycare support for my sometimes-anxious Doodle. She was so responsive and clearly cares deeply for dogs!”


6. Bree L.

“Bree was so great! She was super flexible with my long work hours and Oakley had the absolute best time with her! We will definitely be using her again!”




7. Julia T.

“Julia is amazing and was awesome with our active puppy, Stella! We received pictures during the day and she was flexible with our pickup time. Stella came home from a day of play with Julia's dog to crash for a few hours 8-) I'm looking forward to having Stella spend a day in her home on a regular basis.”


8. Svitlana F.

“Athena had another amazing time with Svitlana at her home! They played in the backyard and met a new dog friend, which got Athena into the nap mode. Look forward to our next meeting!”


9. Jessica L.

“Jessica and James have both been great daycare hosts! They’re efficient communicators and home most of the day so my dog gets a lot of time outside the crate. They’re great at being flexible as well and we definitely recommend and will continue to use regularly. This was my first rover experience and it was great!”


10. Nana A.
“He is the best caregiver around my area. I always feel at ease when I leave my golden with him. He is a kind and humble person, I hope you guys are able to trust him.”


11. Aly B.

“I was going through Charlottesville and desperately need someone to watch my dog for a few hours while I went to the doctor and took my car to be serviced. Aly was exactly who I was looking for, and more important, exactly who my dog needed.”


12. Aiden M.
“We had a senior Pomeranian with a lot of medical needs. Aiden was fantastic with him and he was extremely happy when we came back. Our dog had bad knees, collapsing trachea, and required very specific food for his stomach. Aiden was conscientious of all of his medical needs and gave him loving attention on top of great care. Aiden also watched our cat at the same time and provided equally excellent care/service. Making sure to get eyes on the cat who tends to hide under the bed, to make sure she was alive and well. If you want someone to care for your pet like you would, Aiden is the right choice!”




13. Joey W.

“Wyndel had a great day with Joey for daycare! I felt super comfortable having Wyndel stay there all day. Joey is very accommodating with my early arrival times as well! He’s also very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!”


14. Tyler W.
“Tyler is a fantastic pet sitter. He took excellent care of my two dogs (age 2, under 15lbs). He made sure they were happy and healthy. He also went above and beyond to take care of my home while I was away. I highly recommend Tyler!”


15. Sarah D.

“I definitely recommend Sarah as the pet sitter. She was great and response to the message almost immediately. Both my dogs are so tired but happy. Additionally, she has three children meaning doggies get 3times more attention!! She also has a nice yard for doggies to run around and her dog Stella is so sweet! You don't need to worry about your doggies while you are gone!!!”


16. Caitlan F.
“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Caitlin as a dog sitter for my two furry companions and I cannot recommend her enough. From the moment I met her, I could tell she had a genuine love and passion for dogs. She was incredibly organized and efficient, making sure to get all the necessary information about my dogs' routine and preferences. During her time with them, she went above and beyond to make sure they were well taken care of, from regular walks and playtime to ensuring they received their medications on time. Not only did she provide excellent care for my dogs, but she also sent me daily updates with pictures which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Caitlin's warm and friendly demeanor made it easy for my dogs to warm up to her, making their time together even more enjoyable. Overall, Caitlin is a wonderfully responsible and caring dog sitter who I would highly recommend to anyone in need of pet care services. I will definitely be hiring her again in the future!”


17. Zuhal P.

“Zuhal was so accommodating and welcoming!”


18. Amaris P.

“Amaris was wonderful. She set up a meet and greet with us and her own dog to meet before our first daycare session which was so nice! She kept us updated and sent pictures during the day. We will definitely plan to have her watch our pup again!”


19. Najia Y.
“Najia is excellent with pets. She has worked for multiple animal shelters as a volunteer and has years of experience dealing with dogs, cats, and small animals (guinea pigs and bunnies). She is experienced in taking care of animals with special needs too. She would be the number one pick for me as a pet sitter. I highly recommend her.”


20. Emily C.
“Emily is the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. She took such good care of my dog, Duke!! She made sure he was given treats and walks and truly loved him like he was her own. Do not hesitate when looking for a pet sitter! You (and your furry friend) won’t be disappointed! ♥️🐾”
