Pet Sitting South Norfolk

“This is our first time using Rover. We wanted someone who was mature and responsible and Jeanne was a great fit. She was prompt and caring from the start. She sent messages and pictures every time and followed the details of our instructions. She was also thoughtful and thorough in how she cared for our kitty. We especially appreciate Jeanne giving time and space for our kitty to warm up to her and make sure she was comfortable with interaction. We recommend Jeane!”

“Jordan was fantastic. She took care of my senior cat with such love and care. She sent detailed messages and consistent pictures of my fur baby. She spent time bonding with him and giving him much needed attention while I was away. I would 100% recommend Jordan for your pet care!”

“Beth helped me out when my sitter fell through and I was already out of town. She was able to jump in with barely any notice AND I cannot express how thankful I was for her flexibility to help me out on a holiday. My two dogs looked so happy in all of the picture updates she sent. I would definitely book again :)”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience working in animal shelters, dog daycare centers, and boarding facilities. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality and needs. After recently losing my beloved dogs, I realized I wasn't quite ready for another long-term commitment, but I deeply missed having dogs around. Rover has given me the perfect opportunity to open my home and heart to dogs while helping other pet parents feel confident their pets are in good hands. I'm a stay-at-home mom, which means your dog will have plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. We have a large fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and exercise. I also have two cats who grew up with dogs and are comfortable sharing their space, as well as two young children who have been around dogs their entire lives and know how to interact respectfully with them. For the comfort and safety of every pet in my care, I only accept dogs from one household at a time. This allows me to provide individualized attention and create a calm, stress-free environment during their stay. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will care for your dog as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. My mornings typically begin with feeding pets, potty breaks, walks, or playtime before my family's daily activities start. Because I am home most of the day, pets receive frequent attention, supervision, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. Throughout the day, I can accommodate additional potty breaks, outdoor time in our fenced yard, feeding schedules, medication administration if needed, and plenty of affection and enrichment. In the evenings, pets are included in our family's relaxed routine, with more playtime, walks, and cuddles before bedtime. For boarding and daycare, dogs are rarely left unattended, and I only accept pets from one household at a time to ensure each pet receives personalized care and attention. I care for every pet as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality. I understand that being away from their family can be stressful, so I strive to provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. For dogs, I provide regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection. Dogs have access to our large fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and because I am home throughout the day, they receive consistent attention and companionship. I only care for dogs from one household at a time, which allows me to focus on their individual needs and maintain a low-stress environment. For cats, I ensure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and attention at their comfort level. Whether your cat enjoys playtime, cuddles, or simply having a quiet and reliable caretaker, I respect their personality and routine. I am also comfortable following special instructions, administering medications when needed, and providing regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

“Thanks for taking such good care of the critters and for being available for an extra day when our flight was delayed! We'll be sure to call you again for our next trip!”

“A life saver! My cat knocked over her feeder overnight while I was out of town, Brookelyn came over as a last minute call and fed my girl for the day. 10/10”

Tyler D.

“I can't recommend Morgan enough! She took amazing care of my 2 dogs while I was away and followed every instruction perfectly. She made sure they got plenty of attention and even played fetch with my golden during every visit, which she absolutely loved. After it rained and the dogs tracked mud through the house, she even went above and beyond by mopping my floors without being asked. It's clear she truly cares about the pets she watches, and takes pride in doing a good job. I felt completely at ease 200 miles away knowing they were in such great hands, and I'll absolutely be booking with her again!”

About: I have always loved animals of all kinds since I was a child. Any little creature, I would quickly take in and care for. The most precious of all was our sweet mini longhair black and tan dachshund - Willow (aka Snoozy and Lovey), who for 16 beautiful, snuggle-filled years, we were honored to be her mommy and daddy! We got her when she was just 8weeks old from some friends of ours, who's doxies had puppies, and she was our very heart for all those years. We sadly lost our baby November 11, 2025 at 16yrs old. Not a moment of every day doesn't go by where we do not think of her, remember her or talk about her. I am very experienced with the care, attention, and love these sweet babies need from puppies all the way up to senior care. Our baby-girl Willow developed CCD (canine cognitive dysfunction the last year of her life and my husband and I became extremely knowledgeable of the meds needed, traditional meds as well as herbal, along with the various adjustments that were needed with the focus of keeping her happy, comfortable and safe. This has helped me to be able to lovingly care for doggies of all stages of life and various needs. In February 2026, we began volunteering for Chesapeake Humane Society and Chesapeake Animal Services as foster parents. We wanted to share a loving home with animals who unfortunately, don't have what our baby girl had. I have also done pet sitting for quite a few of our friends over the years for a variety of doggies. My husband and I both work from home and our jobs are not stressful or overly demanding. So, it would not be an inconvenience or out of the norm for us to have a furry visitor during the week. Our weekends are a bit busier, but again our schedules are usually flexible, and with sufficient advance scheduling we have been able to sit for our friends, and foster dogs and cats successfully. In my home it is catered to each individual animal, we have a large kitchen area that we use as an introduction to our home, then if the dog or cat feels comfortable, we bring them upstairs with us to sleep in our upstairs hallway or our bedroom (either in their crate, or I have setup a sleeping area in our upstairs hallway with safety gates, also depending on the specific care, size of dog and age). I have never done client home care for pet sitting, but I plan on getting specific details from each client to know their individual pet's needs, comfort level, and any other details in order that their baby is safe, and happy.

“Mary deserves more than 5 stars. I was worried leaving my shy 13 year old cat alone for the first time, but he quickly bonded with her!  She sent multiple wonderful photos every day to let me know he was doing well!  Highly recommended!”

“Rodney has been amazing!! I had to go out of town unexpectedly for an extended period of time and after our first meeting, I knew I’d found someone who would take care of my babies while I was away and I wouldn’t have to worry. He was so communicative and easy to work with and my 3 fluffy kitties were well looked after! As a huge bonus he also helped keep my place clean while I was gone so I didn’t come home to a thick layer of cat hair everywhere (long haired cats are fine aren’t they?). Thank you so much Rodney, you’re the best!!!”
