“Analise did a wonderful job taking care of our elderly (large) dog and two cats, and provided great communication while we were away. It was really nice knowing they were so well taken care of care of. Thank you!”

“Leo was remarkable! He was able to get my extremely shy girl to warm up to him. He left great notes and photos in the rover cards. I was so happy to have Leo taking care of my girl!”

“Ashley was fantastic! She stepped in to care for our dogs on short notice and did an amazing job. Her communication was great, and it was clear our dogs loved her. She made our weekend away completely stress-free, and we now know she’s a trusted sitter we’ll happily use again in the future. We would absolutely recommend booking with her!”

About: Free Trial SleepOver at Lilibet's Place! Let’s first make sure our pups are compatible before booking a Pawsome Adventure! Request a Practice SleepOver at Lilibet’s Place for a convenient day; I’ll modify the current rate through the Rover app to be No Charge! Then book at least Seven Sleeps and know that your pup is in Good Hands and Good Paws! My pup Lilibet, named after Queen Elizabeth, is a six year old rescued Beagle Mix coming in at under 25 pounds and we are excited for our new adventure on Rover. Lilibet is not my first pup; I have over thirty years caring for dogs. SleepOvers at Lilibet’s Place is designed for pet owners vacationing without their pups. I know how difficult it can be to find appropriate pup care while planning your own getaway. Please allow SleepOvers at Lilibet’s Place to be your pups getaway with a buddy to play with during the day and two adults to love all over in the evening and weekends. We are minutes away from the Gypsy Hill Dog Park in Staunton, VA and a short Road Trip to Coyner Springs Park in Lyndhurst, VA with a Leash-Free Dog Park. There is a huge difference between a Medium Dog and a Large Dog! I am happy to entertain hosting your Large Pup if the connection is right. Lilibet enjoys playing with dogs over 40 pounds like an English Shepherd but a Doberman Pinscher coming in at 90 pounds might be a bit much for our setup. In determining if we are a good fit for your pups vacation, please keep in mind that: • I do not have any children in my home • We work outside the home and can monitor our pups using our Lilibet Cam • I am comfortable administering oral or subcutaneous injections • Lilibet is a client of Staunton Vet Clinic in town and we are ten minutes away from the Veterinary Emergency Services in Verona, VA SleepOvers at Lilibet’s Place is intended to be a minimum of one week that begins on a Friday in order for our pups to become comfortable with each other. A prior Meet & Greet is required before confirming a reservation. This can be done in person near, but not in, the Gypsy Hill Dog Park; a Virtual Visit can initiate the Meet & Greet but we'll want to meet you and your pup in person. Your dog must be house broken as I work outside the home during the day. During holiday breaks I will make an exception to my “only one sitting assignment” policy to accommodate more Pet Parents if necessary! Outside of the holiday season, I will only take in one sitting assignment at a time. Lilibet has the run of the house while we are at work; she and your fur buddy are welcomed to lounge on the sofas, beds, or dog bed we provide. If your pup has their own home comforts they are welcome to pack an overnight bag for their stay to include favorite toys, treats, beds, and smells from home. During your pups vacation with SleepOvers at Lilibet's Place, you can select from one of Five Excursions during their stay to include: • A trip to Wright's Dairy-Rite, a local landmark for an adventure with a Pup Cup at their historic Curb Service. • An adventure to run free on the farm with other pups and cats while meeting the horses. • Gypsy Hill Dog Park is right around the corner in Staunton; your pup and Lilibet can meet neighborhood friends while under the watchful eye of their chaperone. • Does you fur baby enjoy the local watering hole? Lilibet and I have access to local rivers to enjoy a splash around. • We are also happy to customize an adventure to meet your pup's needs.
“Great 1st booking with Mary. She was skilled , confident and supportive of our puppy training plan and needs. Sent updates and photos. All went smoothly. Very happy :)”

About: Cat mom, but also love dogs 🥰 I enjoy taking care of cats and dogs and since I work from home, I am very flexible with how often pets need to be checked and/or walked. I work remotely from home and have a very flexible schedule throughout the day. You’re pet(s) will get all the love and attention they need. I live in a one bedroom apartment, so dogs will be on a leash at all times outside. At your home, I will follow your expectations to ensure a safe and happy pet.
“Ashley was wonderful at taking care of Bowser while we were gone, she gave great updates and followed the instructions we had left her. She was highly communicative, not to mention that this was a fairly last minute ask! We will most definitely be reaching out when we go out of town again!”

About: I’ve been around dogs, cats, and even farm animals since I was very young. I worked as a kennel technician at a vet in college, so I have plenty of experience with animals, as well as administering medication. I grew up helping my parents out at their doggy daycare and boarding facility. Friends and family always give me a call when they need someone to watch their furry friends! I am currently a student, so I have lots of free time throughout the days during the week, as well as weekends to take your pups on walks, or pop in when needed to check on your feline friends. I am very passionate about making sure your furry friend is happy and relaxed when I arrive at your home. I will ensure your pup/cat has everything they need to keep them happy throughout the day.
“She was amazing. Tiggy loved her and she took such good care of her. And she took care of me by sending pictures and an update with each message!! Thank you so much.❣️❣️❣️”


About: I had 2 boxers for 8 years. My availability is Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. I have transportation where I can take your dog to the park or even a pet store. Even walk the neighborhood. I have experience in giving medicine to dogs. Mostly oral. Animals are my favorite. If you have cats I can look after them too. No animal too big nor too small I can't handle. I can teach them tricks and other things like sit, stay, shake etc. Just need to know what they are fed with and how often. Don't want to mess up their schedule. If they need a bath and your unable to do it I can do it for you. If they need to go to a groomers I can do that as well.
“Maria was great and my boys warmed up to her immediately. She was on time, followed all special instructions, and did absolutely amazing! Marco and Brody will be happy to have her check in again. Thank you Maria!”

“I’m so grateful for Stephanie taking care of my two kitties. I was a little nervous because I had never used this service before, but all my fears were wiped away the minute I met her. She is an excellent provider and I will definitely be reaching out to reschedule for all cat sitting needs.”

“Dana was an excellent caregiver and available on short notice. She was super communicative and patient with my dog’s social quirks. She was attentive to my dog’s needs, not just there to check the boxes and leave. When my dog had an accident, Dana had cleaned up the rug using her own cleaner. Very grateful my dog had her care while I was away on a trip!”

About: I went to school for 2 years to become a veterinary assistant, work 4 days a week and love what I do and enjoy being around animals in my spare time :) I enjoy drawing and painting in my free time and consider myself a care free individual. I have a dog of my own, a 7 year old beagle mix named Jaxx. Very outgoing and loves to play but what do you expect with a pup? Besides painting and working I enjoy watching my favorite show (Greys Anatomy or The Office) and laying back listening to music. I hope this answers most of your questions about me and I hope you take the chance to message me about taking care of your pet :) you won’t regret it! LoveHas4Paws :) I am mostly flexible with my job to fit your needs of pet sitting aside from starting school in December one day a week mostly. I come to the clients home to make the fur baby feel less stressed and relaxed since they are in their own home and give them all the love (and treats) lol
“Chloe took great care of our big, energetic labs. She provided regular updates and handled everything the dogs could throw at her. Terrific sitter and we will gladly have her back!”
