“Jaime was wonderful with Sophie and a pleasure to work with! She found a way to make things work that had at first looked like they might be a stumbling block logistically, and she made Sophie’s walk fun despite the great heat. We all look forward to our next adventures with Jaime!”
2. Amber M.
“Amber is so attentive to Jasmine’s needs and her calm demeanor is perfect for this rescue dog. Jasmine loves Amber’s dog, Cosmo, so it is double fun for her when Amber comes for a walk.”

“Lauren was great with our pup, Maisey. Even when Maisey got into a houseplant and made a mess. She was great at keeping us up to date on pet care and keeping an eye on our house. We will definitely book with Lauren again.”

About: I have been a volunteer with a rabbit rescue since 2016. I am now a college student and would love to help you with yours! I have had many years of pet sitting, both for the snuggles and money. I have most experience with rabbits but will do/learn how to take care of any pet! I am a full time college student but I can always take care of animals in between classes. Check with me for more details and to see if your needs match my availability! Because I live in an apartment, I will not be bringing pets into my space. With years of rabbit experience, I’ve become very good at noticing anything wrong animals. I’m sure your pet will also enjoy my snuggles, ask my previous clients

About: We’ve had our doggies, Koda (golden retriever) and Barley (Yorkie) since they were puppies and they turn TEN this year! We have had our two cats, Cherry and Catarina, since they were kittens. Cherry is 1 and Catarina is 2. Aside from having my own pets, friends and family have relied on me to pet sit regularly throughout the years. If you are like my family, we treat our pets like family, and we want them to be with someone we trust to love and care for them while we are gone. I would LOVE to be that person for you! I aim to make your animals feel comforted and cared for and give you peace of mind while you are away. I would LOVE to hang out with your furry best friends! Currently I’m a sahm, who substitute teaches on occasion. My schedule is usually open, during the week my kids have school and if I’m not subbing I’m at home. I’m able to devote lots of attention and care to your furry family members! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs for yours to play with! (I’m also able to keep them separately if necessary or if that’s just your preference) Our house is quite big and can be partitioned with baby gates and pocket doors!

He's also good with heeler breeds and working breeds. He's also very flexible with schedule and different pets needs. Definitely recommend!”

8. Joell O.
“Joell has taken care of our two doodles over the past years. She is reliable and extremely loving to our pets. I would highly recommend her. We always have peace of mind knowing that our dogs are in good hands.”
9. Katherine W.
“If you worry about your dog or cat while you’re on vacation then you need a person that loves animals to step in and take extraordinary care of your pets. Katherine took care of our standard pool whenever we were away. She took him on long walks, fed and loved him. We never worried about him when he was with her. She’s the best! Deb White”

11. Kathryn F.
About: Hi, I'm Katie. I am new to Rover, but not to pet sitting. I grew up with pets and have had them the majority of my adult life. I currently live on a hobby farm just outside of Staunton. I have a flexible schedule and will love and care for your pet(s) as if they are my own. I am attentive to detail and will follow any and all guidelines and preferences you provide. I have a flexible schedule and I am available with short notice. I can be available most times through out the day. I am responsible and will love and care for your pets. I currently have pets of my own and prefer to care for pets in their own home. I am happy to make multiple checks daily and walk and clean up after pets.
12. Courtney K.
“Courtney cares for my dog as if he was her own. She has been helping take care of my dog since we brought him home. She is extremely professional, responsible, and caring. She is very flexible and reliable and has made my life much easier. It is very clear how much she loves animals and how much mine love her. I never worry while I am away. Reliable, trustworthy, provides very personalized care and excellent communications!”

15. Miranda S.
About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and I have experience both handling and grooming animals as well as volunteering at an animal shelter. I love animals and I can take care of different kinds. I take care of my own pets every day so I have plenty of experience to take care of yours! I am currently employed at a veterinary hospital and have learned so much about animal care, so rest assured your fur babies are in good hands! I think it’s very important to create a safe environment for not only my pets but yours. I will make sure leashes are secure, and that I respect the boundaries of your pet. I take care of my own pets everyday. And since I work at a veterinary hospital, extending pet care outside of work and my own home is always a bonus for me. I keep a close eye on your pet! A fenced yard is always a bonus for puppers who like to go outside a lot. Im very attentive to pets and make sure all their needs are being met.
16. George D.
About: I've had dogs all of my life and what household is complete without a faithful dog or cat. All of my pets have lived long active lives, and I've had to care for them in their old age. I'm a retired educator and have a great deal of freedom to make my own schedule. I have 2 Golden Retrievers myself. Fun to have ! I can get your pets outside safely on a leash and depending on the size, would walk them together or separately. Good arm for fetch.
17. Valerie C.
About: I’ve been a pet owner my whole life and helped out with many many friend’s pets along the way. I currently have one sweet doggo. I’m currently looking to take a few extra walks per week with some new furry friends. I’m a stay at home mom, so fitting them in will be pretty easy. I will always be respectful of your pets and your home, working to keep you and your pets as comfortable as possible while you’re away.

19. Samantha H.
About: I've had many pets my entire life, ranging from rodents all the way to reptiles. I don't mind babysitting any type of animal or checking on any type of animals that may need help, extra care or whose owner just wants the day off I love all animals and can't wait to meet yours I've been wanting to give back and give some purpose more to my weekly life and taking care of friends, family and pets have always made me happy Any type of time that I spend with your pets I want to make sure that they know that they're comfortable able to relax and get out any energy that they might have. For dogs that have a history of abuse in the past I want to treat with more care and understanding that not everyone is bad.
