I highly recommend her and we will be back! 🐾😊 Thank you Lauryn!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and experience I bring to every pet I care for. I have over 12 years of pet-care experience and am a pet parent myself to three Chihuahuas, including a senior dog. Because of this, I understand the extra patience, attention, and care that senior pets can need. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, and I’m happy to accommodate each pet’s individual routine and personality. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet, relaxed environment, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I stay home full-time. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m able to work around each pet’s normal routine, including meals, potty breaks, walks, medications, and plenty of love and cuddles. 🐾❤️ Because I’m home most of the day, your pet can have someone nearby rather than being left alone for long periods. I truly enjoy having animals around and love making them feel comfortable, safe, and at home while their families are away. I care for every pet based on their individual needs and the routine their family has established. In my home, pets are treated like family and receive plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, walks, meals, and lots of love. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I’m happy to provide walks, feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, and basic medication care when needed. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, schedule, and specific needs before their family leaves. My goal is always for your pet to feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️
“I had a wonderful experience with this dog sitter Right Robert! He took amazing care of my dog and treated onyx like family. I received regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave me us much peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. I truly appreciate their kindness, professionalism, and attention to detail. I would absolutely recommend Robert to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter, and I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Had the best experience! And the fact that she was able to accept a last minute booking was sooo wonderful! My fur baby was well taken care of ☺️ Would recommend! 10/10”
“We had a great experience working with Melanie! She was attentive, caring, and kept us updated throughout our pet (Kash’s) stay. We really appreciated the regular pictures and messages showing how he was doing, it gave us so much peace of mind. Kash was well cared for, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Gail was great with my dog Luna. She went above and beyond ensuring that Luna got her medicine on time and sent pictures throughout the day for peace of mind. Gail, I hope you’ll have us again in the future if Luna needs another sitter. Thank you for everything!”
“I was afraid my dog wouldn’t be able to stay at someone’s home and true enough Hailey with confidence for sure knew exactly what to do. She was patient with me and absolutely reassuring that everything’s okay. She sent photos daily and was super communicative! I will be booking again!”
“Gus was so happy and obviously well taken care of when we picked him up. After a previous boarding that was terrible (facility setting) we were nervous about leaving him again. But we’re so pleased with Eric! Thank you for taking such excellent care of our buddy!”
About: I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs and cats for over 16 years, and I treat every pet like family. I’m experienced with pets of different ages, personalities, and needs, and I understand how important it is to provide them with patience, love, attention, and a safe environment. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply some companionship while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. 🐾❤️ I currently work part time running my own business and I choose when I want to work, so it gives me more time with our pets and children. I have a fenced yard, and we are looking at adding a play area for the dogs to enjoy their time outside. The fenced portion is about 1/2 of an acre.
“Julianne is great with arwyn our 5 lb chihuahua. She takes care of her daily walks and specialized meals and treats her as one of her own pups. Arwyn is always happy when I come to get her, looking forward to booking with her in the future!!!”
“These dodgy sitters are great. With the pictures they sent showing my dogs looking like they were right at home, it is obvious they care about the job they do. Thanks for a great job.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their South Suffolk home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your South Suffolk.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your South Suffolk sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in VA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
