“Natasha is awesome! Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Charlie. He came home so relaxed and happy. She took Charlie for walking also. She has such a kind, gentle way with dogs, and her communication was fantastic—frequent photos, updates and super prompt responses the whole time. We will absolutely look to her for future pet care and will gladly recommend her to everyone we know!”

“I can never say enough about about her wonderful services. My dog is older and has some special abilities that need to be tended to. She has dogs herself that are gentle and playful that supplies my dog with a plenty of playmates. She also never kenneled my dog which was a big worry for me. Time and time again I would never choose anyone else to take care of my sweet boy.”

“Myra went above and beyond for our dog! We had booked another sitter for a week who backed out 3 hours into the reservation. Myra changed her schedule to take our Yorkie, Buttercup. She said Buttercup arrived smelling like pee and skittish. She bathed her and she and her daughter cared for her like she was their own. We returned to a happy and well-cared for pup. We got pictures and updates every day. I felt completely comfortable and happy with our dog in Myra’s care.”

About: I have taken care all types of dogs of different breeds and sizes and difficulty. I’ll treat them like they’re my own. Show them the love and affection that they need. I’m currently working full time but am only gone 4-6 hours out of the day so I’ll have plenty of time to love and care for your fur baby. I have a fenced in yard and 4 of my own fur babies to keep your company while I’m gone. I am also able to crate them if needed.

“Caitlyn and Sam were absolutely amazing with our beagle, Gary! He can be a little nervous at first, and big noises tend to scare him, but they were incredibly patient, understanding, and gave him all the time he needed to settle in and feel comfortable. Their communication was outstanding from start to finish, which gave us so much peace of mind. They kept us updated with messages and photos, making it easy to relax knowing Gary was in such great hands. Since we were out of the country, their updates and communication meant even more. It truly felt like Gary was staying at his home away from home. Their girls adored him, and it was obvious that he was loved and cared for like one of their own. I honestly can’t say enough positive things about this family. They made us feel completely at ease, and knowing Gary was in such caring hands meant everything. If you’re looking for a safe, loving, and welcoming home for your pup, I highly recommend Caitlyn and Sam. We will absolutely be booking with them again!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from young puppies to large breeds, and I’m confident handling a wide range of needs and personalities. I’m comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to make sure every pet stays healthy and safe. I also have experience with basic puppy training, helping reinforce good habits and routines. What sets me apart is my patience and understanding, especially with dogs who have separation anxiety or need extra reassurance. I take the time to make pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like my own, paying close attention to their behavior, energy level, and individual needs so they get the best care possible. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make it a priority to give each pet the time, attention, and consistency they need. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate morning, midday, evening, and even last-minute bookings when needed. Whether it's walks, drop-ins, or extended stays, I'm able to adjust my routine to match your pet's schedule and keep things as normal and stress-free as possible for them. I'm reliable, responsive, and committed to being there when you and vour pet need me. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I have a spacious three-floor condo that gives dogs plenty of room to move around and feel comfortable. I also have a friendly six-year-old dog who gets along well with other animals, helping visiting pets feel more at ease. My two daughters are gentle and respectful with animals, adding to the loving environment your pet will be in. I live in a great area for walks, so your dog will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention throughout the day. I make sure to follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping things consistent and stress-free by maintaining their normal routine and environment. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Tamworth home-away-from-home, packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Tamworth.

<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Tamworth sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in VA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
