“Rebeca was absolutely amazing! She was able to take Rosie on very short notice while we were leaving for vacation, and we are so grateful. She took wonderful care of Rosie, kept us updated with photos and messages, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was obvious Rosie was happy, comfortable, and well loved during her stay. Knowing Rosie was in such great hands allowed us to truly enjoy our vacation. We would absolutely book with Rebeca again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you, Rebeca!”

“Does a great job giving updates when asked. Got some great pics. Treated Ilona like she was part of the family. They bonded with her so much they were sad to see her leave.”
“Thoroughly enjoyed having them as my puppy's pet sitters. They were great, very communicative, lots of pictures, lots of texts. Would use them anytime again. Can recommend anytime.”
“Carlos was amazing! I was nervous to leave Coco with a sitter but Carlos was kind, patient and an obvious dog lover. He kept me updated throughout her stay with pictures and stories of what she was doing. I absolutely plan on using him for future trips!”
“Stacy and her family took wonderful care of Curie! We got plenty of updates. The level of communication assured us that she was in good hands. She was happy when we picked her up but also wasn’t too eager to leave the people that gave her all the treats and belly rubs :) Thank you so much!”
“Yodi enjoyed his stay with Heather. She took him on short notice during Labor Day weekend. She was very accommodating and carried out my instructions for his care. I enjoyed her daily updates and photos. We will definitely return.”
“Cici and Nick were great with my high maintenance and anxious senior dog. They provided frequent updates and pictures and I truly appreciated the requirement of a meet and greet in public prior to being able to book. These are good people who love their animals and those they take care of.”
“Jona takes such good care of our dog. She takes the time with each dog to find out what they need and makes sure they are always comfortable and feel safe. Our dog loves to spend time with her!”

“Emanuel was great and my dog, Ruben, had a great time at his house playing with other dogs. Ruben has clear markers for anxiety, so when we picked him up we were on the look out to see if he'd been stressed. Ruben was happy to see us, but also clearly very happy and comfortable with Emanuel. Back at home Ruben is happy and is not showing any of his anxiety markers, indicating to me that he felt safe and comfortable while we were away. He also came back freshly bathed and his bed had been cleaned too.”
“Rosalina and her family were incredibly kind and attentive to my dog. They sent me daily photos of him having a great time with her family. I’m definitely booking with her again! The service was exceptional and I highly recommend her.”
“This was the second stay Leo had with Jim. With all the frequent updates and communication, we knew exactly what was going on with our little boy in JIm's sweet home. We felt so lucky to have found a home outside of the home for our little boy. We will definitely book another stay with Jim.”
“Donna provided very special care to Cocoa. She is a senior pup, and we are forever grateful that Donna provided updates as soon as anything of note happened. She was super responsive to all messages, and Cocoa was comfortable for the entire stay. We may not have Cocoa for much longer, and we are grateful that Donna was extra attentive to her needs and provided the best care possible. Many, many thanks.”

The fact that she is bilingual adds even more value to her work. Thank you so much, Melissa! 🙏🏼”

About: I’ve cared for cats for many years and understand that each one has a unique personality and comfort level. I’m patient and attentive, especially with shy or independent cats, and I take time to build trust at their pace. I’m currently studying veterinary medicine, which helps me better understand feline health, behavior, and overall well-being. I’m comfortable handling feeding routines, litter box care, playtime, and giving cats the calm, quiet environment they need to feel safe. Whether your cat is playful or prefers space, I adapt to their needs and make sure they are comfortable, cared for, and stress-free while you’re away. I can administer medications if needed and provide updates and photos after each visit.
About: I’ve taken care of all type of different cats breeds from calm all the way to chaos lol! I have experience with changing the litter box, cleaning litter, feeding and watering, cleaning up accidents like feces, urination and vomit.
“Morgan was FANTASTIC! I had never left my cat with anyone except my best friend and was extremely nervous about traveling for the holidays after she moved away. Morgan's expertise and care made it possible for my girl to stay in her comfort zone, and for me to be with family without severe anxiety. He communicated clearly and often, gave me great updates (and photos!), and was the perfect mix of professional and personable. He took plenty of time with her even when he came out on Christmas Day. He clearly understood cat psychology and Cleo adored him for it (I'm a little shocked because she does not typically warm up to people that quickly at all!). All in all I could not be more thrilled to have found a trustworthy source of care for my baby girl, and will definitely be using Morgan again in the future! 🧡”
About: I’ve been caring for cats and other pets for over 20 years, and I know that every cat has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m patient and attentive, and I’m happy to let shy or cautious cats warm up to me at their own pace. My professional experience working with animals, including training and bathing/grooming, has taught me how to safely handle pets, recognize body language, and pay attention to the little things that can make a big difference in their comfort and wellbeing. Whether your cat wants playtime and attention or prefers to keep their distance and simply have someone reliably check in on them, I’ll follow their lead and make sure they receive the care, companionship, and routine they’re used to while you’re away.
“It was our first time using Rover and couldn’t have been happier with Jhonathan! He was extremely easy to contact and super patient with all our questions. He treated our cats like they were his own and when we needed to extend the services an extra 5 days, he didn’t hesitate to accept the new contract time. Being new to VA, it’s such a relief to have someone in the area we can trust to watch our cats while we’re away. Will absolutely use him again the next time we are out of town!”
“That is a great addition—it shows she really understands different cat personalities, from the "spicy" ones who hate grooming to the shy ones. Here is the updated review with those details included: ### Review for Liz **Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐** Liz provided incredible care for my three cats while I was away. It is always a bit stressful leaving a multi-cat household, but Liz handled everything with total professionalism and genuine care. She stayed on top of their specific needs, including: * **Medication & Maintenance:** She reliably administered medicine and kept the litter boxes spotless. Food and water were always fresh and topped off. * **Frank:** I loved the updates about her playing with him; she made sure he got plenty of exercise with his favorite laser toy! * **Rudy:** She even managed to give Rudy a good brushing—something he usually hates when I do it! She clearly has a magic touch. * **Ryan:** For my hider, Ryan, Liz took the time to find her every day just to lay eyes on her and make sure she was safe and doing okay. It’s clear Liz truly loves animals and respects their individual boundaries. I came home to happy, relaxed cats and a tidy home. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, patient sitter!”

I’ll care for your dogs and cats in the comfort of their own home, keeping their routines as consistent as possible and treating your space with the same respect I would my own. For walks, I’ll stay in familiar local areas and use safe, vetted trails that are appropriate for your dog’s needs and energy level. I have professional experience handling and caring for dogs, including bathing and training, so I’m comfortable paying attention to body language, behavior, and potential safety concerns. I’ll always follow your instructions, communicate with you throughout the stay, and make sure your pet receives attentive, dependable care while you’re away.
About: The fluffier, the better 🐶 I've got a soft spot for grumpy dogs and, if they’re particularly vocal, I’ll happily bark back (all in good fun). I love dogs of all shapes and sizes, drooly to the dramatic, love the cuddles and tail-wagging fun. Just don't expect me to share my snacks—unless you’ve got treats, then we can talk. Available Monday through Sunday full time, most hours and overnight as well as multiple days. I can most likely accommodate even last minute requests depending on your needs. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to run around, and some trees to mark. There's no plants or spreading of any chemicals and has been treated for ticks.
About: My husband and I are blessed to have a totally fenced in home with over three acres. I decided to use this blessing to bless dogs to come and run and play. Dogs were meant to run and roam not be tied up. I so enjoy being outdoors and being around dogs. I have always had dogs even growing up with my family. My father had a heart for animals and I believe that is where my love has come from. I have three dogs of my own and each one has a very special spirit about them. In my spare time, I enjoy going to the rescues and shelters walking the dogs there. I also take rescue puppies into our home and foster them until they are adopted into a loving family. My husband and I work together and we have plenty of time to give special attention to your fur baby. We believe in exercising your pet whether by means of walking, playing with their favorite toy, sitting on the porch just hanging out and also then giving the proper rest as needed. My yard is fenced in for protected play time. While inside your pet will be allowed to be a part of household for special time and then I have a separate area where your pet will be allowed to have quite time and rest in a crate or in a area without a crate as needed.
About: I’ve grown up with multiple dog breeds my whole life. I’ve also owned cats, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I have 2+ years of experience with taking care of bearded dragons and I’ve had a couple visits with snakes, specifically corn snakes. I work with any and all dogs/cats. I also like to send pics/videos of the pets to their owners daily for that reassurance that their fur baby is taken care of with the upmost care! I’m currently a full-time college student. I’m available any day and any time of the week. I’m usually available last minute as well and around holidays if needed. I currently have 4 dogs; 3 Yorkies and 1 Boarder Collie mix. They’re set on a twice per day feeding and their internal clock is set to those times. If I were to be in a clients home, I would do my best to ensure the animal stays in their routine and their feeding/medication is on schedule. They’d get plenty of play times and unlimited cuddles!
About: I've taken care of cats and dogs my entire life, I also have a lot of experience handling and taking care of large breed dogs like pitbulls and dogo argentinos. I'm a college student with lots of free time and I would love to spend time with your pets and love them like mine. I can walk, feed, bathe and mostly love all kinds of dogs and cats and this is like a dream job to me. Taking care of animals will be my mainly routine since I'm on break from college. I will put all my time and care into making sure your fur babies are taken care of. I live in an apartment complex that has a dog park and my nice quiet neighborhood is walking distance from a playground and a high school track & field. I mostly do this for fun and supplemental income on my free time so I am flexible on cost and cancellation. Your pets' safety and happiness are paramount. I aim to create a stress free and fun environment for everyone.

“Thank you so much for taking care of our little guys this weekend. Also thanks for the updates it gave my wife peace of mind while we were gone. We will definitely be working with you in the future.”
“Megan is an outstanding dog boarder. She sent us photos of Dream daily and an update. Megan gave Dream exceptional care and I could not be more appreciative for Megan . Highly recommend!!!”
“Stacy and her family took wonderful care of Curie! We got plenty of updates. The level of communication assured us that she was in good hands. She was happy when we picked her up but also wasn’t too eager to leave the people that gave her all the treats and belly rubs :) Thank you so much!”
“Yodi enjoyed his stay with Heather. She took him on short notice during Labor Day weekend. She was very accommodating and carried out my instructions for his care. I enjoyed her daily updates and photos. We will definitely return.”
“Cici and Nick were great with my high maintenance and anxious senior dog. They provided frequent updates and pictures and I truly appreciated the requirement of a meet and greet in public prior to being able to book. These are good people who love their animals and those they take care of.”
“David was very responsive during the booking process, and kept us very well-informed about our pup's stay with him with lots of pictures and messages. I would definitely book with him again.”
“Emanuel was great and my dog, Ruben, had a great time at his house playing with other dogs. Ruben has clear markers for anxiety, so when we picked him up we were on the look out to see if he'd been stressed. Ruben was happy to see us, but also clearly very happy and comfortable with Emanuel. Back at home Ruben is happy and is not showing any of his anxiety markers, indicating to me that he felt safe and comfortable while we were away. He also came back freshly bathed and his bed had been cleaned too.”
“Rosalina and her family were incredibly kind and attentive to my dog. They sent me daily photos of him having a great time with her family. I’m definitely booking with her again! The service was exceptional and I highly recommend her.”
“This was the second stay Leo had with Jim. With all the frequent updates and communication, we knew exactly what was going on with our little boy in JIm's sweet home. We felt so lucky to have found a home outside of the home for our little boy. We will definitely book another stay with Jim.”
“Donna provided very special care to Cocoa. She is a senior pup, and we are forever grateful that Donna provided updates as soon as anything of note happened. She was super responsive to all messages, and Cocoa was comfortable for the entire stay. We may not have Cocoa for much longer, and we are grateful that Donna was extra attentive to her needs and provided the best care possible. Many, many thanks.”
“Mary watched my two dogs a total of four times for three days at a time, and I waited till the last visit to write a review. Mary is absolutely awesome. My youngest can be a handful at times, but Mary is extremely patient, caring, and truly just loves dogs. I received a message from Mary on the second visit that my dog threw up and was not feeling good. She asks me if she can boil chicken breast and rice for him to have something easier on the stomach. This just made me feel good about leaving them in her care and that she had his best interest. She truly wants the best for them. She is the first person my dog has ever ran up to invitingly and was not timid of. I will definitely be going back to Mary if I’m in need of a good dog sitter.”
“Schuyler was great! She was very responsive & even super accommodating as my return flight was delayed, which changed my pickup time. She sent pics and videos of Leo while he was there too!”
“This was my first time using this type of service to board my senior dog, and I must say that it was a blessing to find Sarah. She cared for Princess as if she was her own. Sarah provided me with status updates and went the extra mile. Will definitely use her services in the future. Thanks Sarah! You are the best!”
“Matthew with family is very accommodating and will entertain your dog for a great price! They went swimming and on long walks. Executed Ozzie’s food plan and supplements no problem. They sleep in the bed with their dogs which my dog liked. I’ll be a return customer if they’ll have us.”
“My dog stayed with Brian for 4 days. I cannot day enough great things about Brian’s dog sitting. We received photo updates 2x/day. My dog doesn’t go into a kennel, so it was especially important to find a place that he can make himself at home. Don’t hesitate to schedule a stay with Brian...pet will enjoy every bit of their stay!”
“Tara and her family were so amazing and took great care of my baby! while away, from daily pics he had so much fun playing with the other pups, didn’t seem like he wanted to come home.”
“Cortney was fantastic with our dog. She provided feedback and a photo daily, she made sure there were lots of walks and time outside, and she let us know how our dog was eating and sleeping. I would absolutely have Cortney host our dog again. Our dog was torn when we got back to pick her up because she loved being there with Cortney and her family— she wasn’t sure she wanted to come home! Definite 5 stars!!”
