Let me start this off by saying my animals are my babies and they are my world! From the moment this young lady walked into my home. I knew they would be in good hands! I have a house full. On this visit, Peyton was taking care of four cats and one very rambunctious dog. She handled it like a champ and my dog and my cats still look for her after her visit. I needed she was there, anything I needed to change Without batting and I she did it. She’s very warm, very loving and very responsible! My fur babies loved her! If you’re looking for someone That you can leave with your babies and not look back knowing that they are very well taken care of then definitely Peyton is your gal! We we’re gone for an extended period of time and I have never left my dog ever. Actually I don’t think she even noticed I was gone lol. We love Peyton and would love to put her in one of our suitcases and take her to Florida with us! Thank you sweetheart for doing an amazing job and I know five little fur babies that are going to miss you very much! We will Definitely spread the word and you will be our go to Gal When and if we ever come back to Virginia’💜💜

Ashanti was so kind and flexible with our last-minute pet sitting request! She took time out of her holiday weekend to take care of our fur babies while we were gone, and she went above and beyond to make sure they were cared for. She was great with our pets, too. Our dog loved the extra attention!

About: I’ve had the privilege to be a friend to many furr babies. I love to hang out with dogs and spend time at the dog park. I have a lot of love for the babies Very flexible at the moment. Don’t hesitate to reach out to see if I’m available last minute! Weekends are here and there but it never hurts to ask! I have a fenced in yard and live 1 mile from a dog park which I frequent. I have 2 dogs of my own who get along with others very well! If needed, crates are available. There are endless toy options for everyone! I struggle with trust in someone who’s looking after my babies when I’m not with them. I want to provide the ease of mind while caring for your babies when you’re not.

Hailey went above and beyond with my fur babies, showing lots of understanding, patience, and love during our absence. We will definitely be booking her again if we need someone to watch our girls (and she feels up for it because my girls did not make it easy on her at al 😭 I'm sorry again, Hailey!! You're an angel!! 😭❤️)

Keith H. took great care of our two cats! He did exactly what we asked, was respectful, polite, on time, fantastic with communication - sent pics and left a note for each visit, and texted back whenever I texted him. He even came out to the house ahead of time to meet in person. Will absolutely look for Keith H. on Rover the next time I need someone to care for my fur-babies! Thank you Keith!

We absolutely love Jazmyn!! We prefer to leave our dog home when we’re out of town because she gets anxious and Jazmyn always make sure she is taken care of… and then some! :). She has taken care out our dog through the holidays and even sat with her through thunderstorms! She always sends pictures and makes sure to play with her. Our dog is always smiling and calm when Jazmyn cares for her. Hands down the best dog sitter around!

About: Hello! My pet-care experience consists of growing up with all sorts of 4 legged friends. I currently am a Dog trainer and a Veterinary Assistant. Beforehand I use to work for A well known pet store company dealing with small animals as well. Family friends, neighbors, and even clientele have all relied upon my help when needed. Whether it was a simple walk or help raising a new born, I would be your team player. I work during the evening only Part-time so I’d be with your furry child pretty much all day. I have a lot flexibility with my schedule. I attend to my pets first thing every morning and night. They go for a walk regardless of the weather, and come back for breakfast and play. Afterwards they pretty much relax throughout the day sometimes out back or on my bed. If im at a clients home then I guarantee nothing will go wrong, directions will be followed to a T.

About: I have owned and cared for many different breeds of dogs from a Pomeranian to a Great Pyrenees. There is nothing like the unconditional love of a dog. I’m currently in between jobs so I’m available pretty much anytime. I’m looking forward to the nice weather and being able to care for and walk your furry friends. I currently have 2 dogs with a fenced in yard. My dogs are outdoors many times thought the day. I would be able to come by several times throughout the day to play, walk and car for your animals.

About: I have experience with animals who require both physical and medical challenges. I have nearly 15 years of experience with dog boarding in my home. I'm currently working part time (4 hours a day) so I can still care for your animal needs in my home with no problem. I have a fenced in yard so your dog can play freely but is still protected. My home is calm and quiet so your animals will feel safe.

Bethany took excellent care of my dogs! She was able to effortlessly take care of each dogs’ particular needs and was very accommodating of all their special instructions. She was also very communicative and punctual. I would absolutely recommend Bethany and plan to use her again in the future!

Alyssa is fantastic!! She has watched our babies a couple of times now. Last time she did a drop in visit and came into our smoke detector beeping because of low battery along with some on edge pups. She texted us and then changed the batteries so the puppies would be comfortable waiting on us to return. That to me was true dedication and professionalism putting our babies first. Thank you Alyssa!!!

Joni was absolutely amazing. My day Chuey loves her and had a great time with her. Joni took lots of picture and provided updates during every visit. It was wonderful to see my baby taken such great care of during our vacation. Joni is just the sweetest and caring person. She definitely went above and beyond. Because of this, we feel such a close bond with Joni and will continue to use her when we go out of town. What a consummate professional!

Zack was AMAZING!! He answered any questions/concerns I had with care and took excellent care of my fur babies. I have never used a sitter service before, so I was cautious and a bit nervous, but his attentiveness with my animals, had me worry-free on my whole vacation. Felt like I was leaving them with a trusted friend. I highly recommend him if you need a sitter. 100000/10

Rosemary took wonderful care of our 3 dogs that vary in age and needs. We have one senior dog, and two with a lot of energy. After every visit we received a write up of what she did for the dog's and pictures of them playing outside. It was comforting to know that our dogs were being well cared for while we were away. Rosemary is an amazing pet sitter and I definitely would recommend her to care for your pets while you are away!

**5 stars just isn’t enough!** Brent did an absolutely amazing job with our pup, Cash. It truly felt like he was spending the weekend with family. He went above and beyond in every way—playing with Cash, giving him plenty of love and attention, and even cleaning up after his bathroom breaks without being asked. As a Dog Mom, it’s always hard to be away and trust someone else to care for your fur baby. But with Brent, there was no need to worry. He treated Cash like his own, and that gave me so much peace of mind. Brent is simply the best, and if I ever need a sitter again, he’s my **First Round Draft Pick**—no question! Thank you so much, Brent!
