Cat Sitting Rushmere

“Audry is a cat whisperer. She convince my shy girl to be her buddy, and she convinced my cat who hides at the sight of new people, to let her pet him. She sent great pics and detailed reports on my fur baby antics. I will definitely request her again.”

About: I’ve been watching both cats and dogs for friends and neighbors for a few years now, and now that I have more flexibility in my schedule I would love to provide my services to others! I work fully remotely and have a ton of flexibility to take care of your pets! If i’m not on vacation, i’m usually free to help :) I live in an apartment with my two-year-old chihuahua mix, Archie! Plenty of opportunities to run around the fenced dog area or ride over to a trail or park for more activity.

“Connor was AWESOME. He makes a wonderful impression when you meet him. You just know he’s someone to fully rely on. He went over and above for me and I couldn’t be happier with how he performed when I left my cats in his care.”

About: You can finally relax knowing your pet will be safe, treated like family and given all the love. Hi there! I’m a stay-at-home mom located in the Hilton area of Newport News. I’m active, reliable, and available from early mornings until late afternoon. I’ve cared for everything from a home full of 7 cats and 4 labradoodles (all at once!) to countless pets belonging to friends, family, and friends of friends. I have a 6 year old son with special needs who absolutely adores pets so if you’re looking for boarding, please make sure your pet is child-friendly. During the day however, he’s in school and I will be able to cover those who may not be small child friendly. I don’t mind hopping in the car to take your pup to the park or on a trail if they need more than just a quick lap around the block. I’m a big morning person who thrives on routine but, full disclosure, I avoid rush hour or late-night driving since my son is with me after 3:30 p.m. Monday–Friday. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in, or a place to stay while you’re away, I am here to help. Just drop me and line❤️ I’m available Mon-Fri from 5am-5pm for walks, parks, even just a home visit and car ride if your pet just needs some 1:1 during work hours. Weekends are limited so send me a message during the week to check availability. I have a large yard but it is not fenced. My son and I enjoy walking whenever we can around our neighborhood in Hilton. I have a pet and baby proof clean home with a gentle loving child. Cleanliness is of the utmost importance to me so you won’t have to worry about anyone making a mess and it not being cleaned up.

“Robbyn is incredibly professional, reliable and respectful of my home, my animals opened up quickly to her, to which I was surprised. I would absolutely book her again.”

“DeHaven and Ashlee are Wonderful!!🤩 This was the first time I have left my kiddos with someone other than family. Naturally, I was a little anxious at the thought of arranging it, but that quickly changed once I met them. They took the time to do a meet and greet, and I was instantly confident in my choice and felt totally at peace. They are great with communicating, wonderful with animals (to include the outdoor feathered ones), went above and beyond and even sent pics to us while we were gone!! I just can’t say enough great things about them and the whole experience!! Will definitely use them again!! Thank you Ashlee!!😊”

“Mary is a terrific sitter and dog walker. She really took care of my bullmastiff and chihuahua. I will use her over and over again when I am leaving town or when I am busy and can’t walk my buddies. If you need a sitter, walker or someone to stop in and let your babies out to play for 30 minutes do not hesitate to contact Mary. She was awesome with my buddies”

About: I've been involved with dogs for well over 25 years. We first owned a Greyhound for 12-ish years. After that, I volunteered at our local SPCA, providing dogs that were waiting for adoption walks and socialization. Later, I became a foster parent for a Working-Dog training school. As a semi-retired person, I have plenty of time to watch, walk, and play with your loved-one. Let me know if there are specific skills that you wish me to reinforce, or activities that you wish me to do. I will abide by all rules of a clients home and walk/play on a schedule that you set. I can also pick up the mail and bring it in/place it where is goes.

About: I have been around dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’m a compassionate and attentive caretaker who truly understands that every dog has its own personality and needs. Whether it’s making sure they’re fed, walked, played with, or just comforted, I treat every dog as if they were my own. My lifelong experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to build trust with animals, which is why I know I’d be a great fit for any role involving dog care! i promise your dogs will love our fenced in dog area and have lots of fun! I am currently not working, and I have always wanted to work with animals! Dog sitting allows me to watch my own dog while also taking care of other people’s dogs and making a living for myself! we have a fenced in dog area and lots of room to run and play! I don’t allow any squeak toys in my house in case of choking hazards! And I have crates if you can’t bring your own if your dog is crate trained!

“Taylor was great with my girls. I have a very loving cuddly great pry and she was so good with her. Will definitely rebook in the future. Communication was great also!”

About: I have had dogs and cats in my life since i was a baby! They have always been my bestfriend! I currently have 1 dog (a golden retriever) and 2 cats. And I’ve house sat for many many fiends for long periods of time. In my eyes i don’t see them as just animals but another member to the family. And that’s how i would treat your fur babies! You should feel comfortable leaving your fur babies in the hands of someone else when life becomes busy or you just need to get away. and i promise I will give your babies all the love and attention they deserve! I work weekdays but i get off early almost everyday with very flexible hours and I’m off every weekend. My work schedule is pretty flexible. I have loads of free time! I have a fenced in yards. My dog is an inside dog (the house belongs to her lol) i have 2 cats that wants to sit on everyone lap. My dog has full access to the house when I’m home and only the downstairs when I’m gone. The cats roam the house as they please but they love to be by my side more than anything! My dog spends so much time outside playing and gets a long walk every day!

About: I’ve grown up with animals my entire life! My dream job was to be a veterinarian until I realized I’d probably get attached to the animals haha. I’ve been house/pet sitting for relatives for the past 7 years now and I love it!! I love being able to take them to dog parks, playing, or even just having a chill day! I also love to spoil the pets by buying extra toys to play with and some good snacks! I think doing rover and being able to care for others pets will be a great way to spend my time since I love animals! I update my calendar every 2 weeks and communicate through my inbox! If there’s a note given on specific times to feed or walk I’ll follow them exactly as written. I won’t ever do something without asking/notifying the owner. I’d spend quality time with the pet and try to get them to trust me and build a bond!

About: I have grown up with pets my whole life. I have experience with all sizes and breeds. I am active and punctual. Any care that is needed for a dog I can provide with 100%. Working with Animals has always been a dream. I can work during the week or weekends if need be. Any time after 10 a.m is functional for me. I live in an apartment, meaning walks, potty breaks and play time are essential to me. I try to limit time that dogs spend alone in the backyard by themselves. Socialize them with myself and build a bond with activities and even training I can do.

“Ginny is amazing! My dog warmed up to her as soon as she stepped in and Ginny made us all feel super comfortable about her care. Would strongly recommend, and we will be using her regular!”

About: Since the age of 10, I've been immersed in the world of pet care, thanks to my mother who ran a boarding home for dogs and cats. Growing up surrounded by animals, I developed a deep bond with them and a strong commitment to their well-being. From dogs and cats to smaller critters, I've always been dedicated to ensuring their happiness and health. This lifelong experience has shaped me into a devoted and compassionate pet caretaker. As a part-time pet caretaker, I offer flexible availability to accommodate the needs of both pets and their owners. With ample time on weekdays and weekends, I provide reliable boarding services for furry friends, ensuring they receive dedicated care and attention. My commitment to pet welfare extends beyond just a job, as I prioritize creating a comfortable and nurturing environment for every animal under my care. I have a safe, loving home for pups to roam freely and an array of cat toys and trees, I offer a safe and stimulating environment for all furry companions. Whether your pets enjoy outdoor adventures or prefer cozy indoor retreats, they'll find ample space to thrive under my care. Additionally, I also cater to the needs of smaller animals, ensuring they have plenty of room to explore and play in a nurturing setting. Your pets will feel right at home with me, receiving the attention, space, and amenities they need for a happy and fulfilling stay.
