“Deb took great care of our pup. Deb and her husband were very communicative and were willing to care for our pup even when they had an emergency come up at the last minute. I loved that there was plenty of outdoor space for our pup to run around. Thank you again Deb!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter than Joe! He took fantastic care of our dog, Tilly, while we were away on vacation for a week. Joe was incredibly kind and attentive, ensuring Tilly received all the love and care she needed. We came home to a happy and healthy pup, and we are so grateful for Joe's excellent service. Highly recommend!”
“Maui’s stay with Hannah was awesome. From the moment I dropped my dog off, I could tell that Hannah was a total animal lover and that Maui was going to be in great hand My dog has anxiety issues and Hannah was great at administering his meds. Hannah sent many pictures to show me how happy Maui was during his stay. I will definitely check with Hannah again when going away and need an amazing dog sitter.”
“Dana is a wonderful host! Lexie stayed with Dana (and Red) while we took a trip over the July 4th weekend and Lexie had a great experience. We especially enjoyed getting pictures and videos on Red's Instagram account!”
“Hillary is a great sitter. A dog lover, she was so engaged and involved with our 2 Goldens during the week they stayed with her and her family. She sent multiple pictures, videos, and texts every day. The dogs were in great shape when we picked them up and it was clear that that they had been very well cared for. It is so comforting to know that your beloved pets are in good hands and Hillary exudes that type of confidence in her care. We are empty nesters and could tell from the videos and pics that the dogs loved playing with her children. I highly recommend Hillary!”
“Nicole did a great job with Ruby. She was attentive to Rubys needs, gave timely updates and was open to me bringing Ruby's baby pool. Nicole was very professional and I highly recommend her to others.”
About: Ive grown up with animals and took an interest in training and sitting when I was around 10 years old. I have experience training and watching family dogs, reactive dogs, service dogs and puppies! I also have multiple animals of my own and am well versed in the different care that different species may need. When I am home, my attention is 100% on my animals. I do have a full time job in a neighboring city and am gone for normal work hours, but devote time and attention when I am home. In my own home, everybody has their own space. With dogs, cats and bunnies, each animal has the ability to socialize or spend time on their own in their space. Each animal has been trained to appropriately interact with each other.
“Jani and Paul were wonderful dog sitters. They have a big fenced in yard and a beautiful home where the dogs are treated like royalty. I picked up my dog around dinner time and they had the thoughtfulness to feed him before I picked him up and also gave him a toy that he loved to play with. Jani and Paul were recommended to me by friends who use them with regularity as well. I would use them again for sure!”
“Jackie was amazing when watching our dog for 2.5 weeks while we were out of the country. She had great communication and sent us pics throughout the time. Great location as well for dogs to stay! Our dog has 3 legs and Jackie had no issues watching our dog and was very accommodating with any special needs. Highly recommend Jackie!”
“Sierra and her family are so sweet and very loving on our dog. She’s an excellent communicator and will always give you timely updates on your dog if you stay over. My dog is very happy there. Will hire again anytime I need dog sitting!”
“We had an overnight trip planned just two weeks after getting a new 4-month-old puppy. We didn't want to do a large boarding facility, so we were really happy to find Cory. He was awesome at communicating and sending photos of Benson, which my kids especially loved! Benson was able to interact with his animals which was great for him, and he seemed to behave better there than at home :) Cory even picked him up and dropped him off, which was really helpful. We will definitely book him again!”
About: I bring a calm, reliable presence and a deep understanding of animal behavior across all ages and species. With hands-on experience caring for everything from playful puppies to gentle senior pets — as well as exotic companions like parrots — I adapt my care to each animal’s unique needs. I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day to keep pets on their regular routine and give them consistent attention. I’m comfortable with crate training, potty training, administering medication, and supporting senior dogs or animals with special needs. Every pet in my care is treated like family — safe, understood, and genuinely loved. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. Since I work from home, I’m able to build my schedule around the pets in my care — whether that means regular walks, feeding times, play sessions, or quiet companionship. My own pets have taught me the importance of consistency and attention, so I’m always mindful of keeping each pet’s routine as close to normal as possible. Caring for animals isn’t something I fit in — it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and right at home here. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I do have an underground fence system with extra collars for dogs who are trained to use it. Otherwise, all outside time is fully supervised, whether on a leash or in the yard. Inside, my home is pet-friendly, calm, and set up to give animals their own space if they need it. I keep things clean, low-stress, and consistent with whatever routine they’re used to. I’m always nearby since I work from home, so your pet gets lots of attention and care throughout the day.
“We are so pleased with our dog's stay with Stacey. She was so easy to communicate with. When I came to pick up, my dog looked very happy and well cared for. I would definitely use Stacey in the future and recommend her to any pet owners looking for a caring home for a temporary stay.”
About: I've taken care of animals for most of my life. I've always had a dog since I was born and often take care of my friends' pets. I have the time and knowledge to love your baby like my own. I am a JMU professor who is on sabbatical until January. This means I am working from home and will have plenty of time for your pet's needs. I have a large yard with areas for dogs to play and run. I have a French Bulldog who loves other animals and is always looking for a playmate.
“Amy did an amazing job taking care of our Luna! She did a great job communicating updates with plenty of pictures and videos. Luna got to go on hikes and became best friends with Amy’s sweet dog, Sylvie too! Amy had great attention to detail- Luna is a poodle so we always pack a brush in case it’s needed, but have no specific expectations with it, since it’s definitely labor of love! Amy is the first Rover sitter to actually brush her! We would highly recommend Amy to anyone looking to board their pup!”
“Mairany was kind, thoughtful, attentive, and so very loving to our fur babies! She sent regular updates and photos. We are so grateful for Mairany-she truly is an animal lover and made sure not only our fur babies were comfortable and cared for, but we were reassured as well. Highly recommend Mairany! She is absolutely amazing 🤩”
