“Jazmin has watched our pets a few times now and I can say she’s truly outstanding with animals and is a delight to work with. We have a reactive chihuahua who is VERY choosy about who watches her and brand new rescue Pomchi who can also take a while to warm up, but Jazmin seems to have the magic touch when it came to earning trust and building a relationship quickly. Jazmin took time to meet with us ahead of our trip to meet the animals and address concerns, has always been communicative, sharing updates consistently (with pictures!) and meeting the very specific needs of our extended furry family. I can see why she has so many outstanding reviews. She’s one of the very few people we will trust with our petsitting needs! I can’t recommend her enough.”
“Jordan was amazing. She was very flexible and even stayed an extra night when my flight was delayed getting home. She took wonderful care of our two dogs and also took great care of the house. She was attentive to all the dogs needs and routines.”
“Felicia was amazing! We came home to happy dogs and a clean home. Thank you for everything. We’ll be in touch for another upcoming trip we’ll need your services for!”
“We have booked Tyshaun a few times and each time has been great! Our babies are well taken care of, communication is amazing, and he’s very respectful. Would definitely recommend!”
“Ian was fantastic and took excellent care of our dogs while we were away. He kept us updated with regular photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly enjoyed spending time with him. We would absolutely book with Ian again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!!”

I’m available most days and can work around your pet’s normal routine, whether that’s walks, feeding times, or just hanging out with them.I’m also good with last-minute bookings when I can, so if you ever need help, I’ll always try my best to make it work.

“Abby was punctual, easy going, and showed a genuine concern for our dog and cat. She takes great pictures of them, too! I felt at ease while I was away knowing that she was taking care of our pets.”
About: I’ve never really known life without pets. Dogs and cats have been part of my household since I was a toddler. I've cared for a pretty wide range of personalities, breeds, ages, and energy levels.. I’ve also provided occasional pet sitting for friends and family, including walks, feeding routines, and basic grooming, and overnight care. I currently have two cats of my own, who are frequently spoiled. So I am also well-versed in cat care. In the past I’ve owned several other cats and dogs, including a Jack Russell Terrier, a Black Lab Retriever, and a Coonhound. I am conscientious about the pets in my care. I take the time to get to know the animals and follow their normal routine as much as possible. I can happily provide energetic walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship. Whatever their particular needs and quirks, I will be attentive and affectionate with your pets while you are away. I am currently currently working from home part-time. My schedule is usually flexible, so I can accommodate the specific needs of your pets. I look forward to talking with you. I am very communicative with my clients. I want to you to be confident that your pet will be well cared for. I strictly follow my clients’ instructions and can send pictures and updates as often as requested.
“Jessica did a great job caring for our pets. She provided an update with pictures daily and was always available to chat. Thank you for taking such great care of our girls!”
“Alexis was great . Our dogs can be difficult and she put us at ease and proved to be great with them . She also house sat and things were just as we left them . Highly recommend her and will be using her in the future.”
About: I have fostered dogs and cats for the past 4 years in CA and I moved here to VA due to change of job. I love animals and I plan on getting my own once I do a little more research until I find the perfect friend! I work 15 minutes away from my home and can come home during lunch for a potty break. I don’t go out much and love going on walks and playing with animals! I have a fenced in back yard that is on a double plot of land so there is plenty of room to run and play.
“We had a great experience with Autumn watching Dash and Valerie! She was extremely communicative and kept us updated with how everything was going at the house while we were in North Carolina. I especially appreciated her time management; she made sure Dash and Valerie were completely taken care of while still balancing her own daily needs. We felt completely at ease and would definitely book with her again!”
About: Hi! My name is Emily Buckner! I’m 24 years old and a recent graduate of William and Mary. I have about 5 years of pet sitting experience. My mom had her own pet sitting business, and starting at the age of 16, I would assist on her jobs whenever her clients were comfortable with it. I gained a lot of experience with dog walking and daily drop in visits. I have also grown up with many animals ranging from cats and dogs to lizards and fish. Recently, I have focused on pet-sitting for friends and family but am looking to expand my range of clients. I am comfortable with daily visits, walking, or over nights. Just let me know what you need, I'm here to help! I would describe myself as very responsible, caring, and fun loving. Of course, I’m also an animal lover! I would love the opportunity to care for your pet if you think we'd be a good fit!! My schedule is very flexible! I work part-time during the week, but can work around most schedules. I usually have availability mornings, afternoons, and evenings during the week. Weekends are completely open! At this time, I can not care for any pets in my own home. I am more than comfortable coming to your place for drop in visits or overnight stays. I can come multiple times a day for however long you would like. Like I said, I'm here for whatever you need!

I am the proud owner of a trained Belgian Malinois and a sweet Yorkie, so your dog will be welcomed into a home that will have an understanding on how to care of your pet. Since, I have had my Malinois she has taught me more skills that I could ever imagine. I have also been to a dog training school in order to provide a better understanding on how to communicate with my girls and with other dogs. I am not a dog training, but I have been using my new skills to teach Pynky (Belgium Malinois) to have a much more well-balanced dog. I am a retired Navy veteran for 10 years and spend alot of time with my household needs and of course spending time with my Pynky and Maya they both keep my husband and I busy. Despite my daily activities, my dogs are well taken care of, we go for daily runs and other needed activities from ball playing, retrieval and agility exercises needed to keep my girls well-balance and healthy. Your fur babies will be treating just as instructed by their parents whether high to low drive, I will meet their needs. In my daycare and boarding I will meet their needs with daily walks, playtime, feeding, medications etc... We do have a fence backyard, also have a dog park about two blocks away from my house. We also have a big space behind my back yard that we utilize on a daily basis especially for my Malinois. Inside my house they have a good space to walk around and relax.
“Zimir took care of our dog at our house. He communicated each day and was easy to interact with. Most importantly, he took fantastic care of our dog. We will definitely use him again.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Elasa and Stephen! They took excellent care of both our dogs and cats, including administering medications without any issues. We really appreciated the daily updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We were delayed coming home and they came back to check on the dogs. We came home to a clean house and, most importantly, very happy and well-cared-for pets. Highly recommend!”

Chelsey was absolutely wonderful with our pawkids! When we came home, they were overjoyed, and it was clear they had been loved, spoiled, and cared for as if they were her own. Knowing they were happy, comfortable, and in such good hands gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were away. Our only hesitation in giving her a glowing review is purely selfish—we want to make sure she’s still available to care for our furry kids next time! 😂🐾

Kimberly was a fantastic caretaker for our two anxious pups! She was so communicative and caring, making sure to let us know exactly when she was arriving and how our pups were doing (pics included). Even our skittish girl Lilly was at ease with Kimberly and let her give cuddles and medication to her. Kimberly treated our home with respect and left it nice and clean. 10/10 recommend and we’ll definitely be working with her again!!
Abby was such a wonderful sitter for our pomsky! She sent numerous photos and videos of our beloved doggy over the course of her stay, and in each one I could tell that she was taking excellent care of our very particular dog. We will definitely use Abby again the next time we need a sitter!
Dianna was available when we had a last minute change of plans to leave town for the holiday weekend. She responded immediately and scheduled a meet and greet within 24 hours. She was responsive, checked in multiple times, and sent pictures of our fur babies throughout the weekend.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Stone Bridge walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Stone Bridge maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Stone Bridge choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
