Personalized care for your dog or cat - Roanoke

“Matt and Angel did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs! They sent daily updates/pictures and clearly cared about making sure our pets were happy and well looked after. We felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in such great hands. We will definitely be using them again and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving pet sitters!”

“Sadie did a great job with my doggo. Lots of picture updates of her getting love and cuddles. She also has 2 other friendly dogs that make good play partners. I’d recommend her to anyone needing a good place for their dog to go!”

“Alicen and Michael graciously accepted a very short notice, first time booking. They were so great with my boys and I couldn’t be more more happy with my first time using Rover.”

About: I have over 5 years of pet-sitting experience and have had dogs my entire life, giving me extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of various breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. What sets me apart is my commitment to providing personalized care and maintaining each pet's normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. In addition to pet sitting, I occasionally volunteer at a puppy nursery that cares for rescued mother dogs and their newborn puppies. This experience has given me additional exposure to caring for young puppies, monitoring their needs, and helping provide a safe and nurturing environment during an important stage of their development. I am comfortable caring for multiple pets, administering basic medications if needed, and providing extra patience and attention to puppies, senior pets, and animals with specific routines. Whether a pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply having companionship throughout the day, I adapt my care to meet their individual needs. I understand that every pet is unique, and I strive to provide reliable, attentive care while keeping owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. I am currently taking online classes over the summer, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, pet sitting, and overnight care. My priority is always providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for pets. I live on 12 acres in a quiet setting and have one small, very friendly Cocker Spaniel. While my yard is not fenced, pets are always supervised outdoors and can be kept on long leads for safe exercise and exploration when appropriate. I never allow pets off-leash unless specifically instructed by the owner and it is safe to do so. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while keeping their environment clean and secure. I understand that trust is important when someone is caring for a beloved pet, so I maintain open communication and provide regular updates and photos. I also pay close attention to each pet's behavior and needs to ensure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout my time with them.

“Dani and Skye were wonderful dog sitters for our beagle, Jenny. We left Jenny with them for a week and they took great care of her. Dani texted us pictures and kept us updated on how Jenny was doing while staying with them. Dani and Skye both love animals and Jenny enjoyed being around their own dog and cat. We would highly recommend these two for anyone looking for a nurturing environment for a pet. Thanks so much!!”

About: Hello there! I'm thrilled to introduce myself as a passionate animal caretaker ready to pamper your beloved pets. Ever since I was a child, caring for animals has been second nature to me. With two cats and a dog of my own who thrive in a bustling pet-friendly environment, I understand the importance of finding a caregiver who can provide love, attention, and companionship to furry family members. With flexible availability, I'm here to cater to your pet's needs with dog walking and drop-in visits tailored to your schedule. As a parent of two, I bring patience, responsibility, and empathy to my care, ensuring your pets' happiness and well-being. I'm equipped to handle any dietary or medical needs, providing peace of mind while you're away. Let's make your pet's experience one they'll cherish! With my weekday afternoons available and weekends open, I am able to offer flexible pet care designed to fit smoothly into your daily and weekly plans. I prioritize pets' comfort and well-being. With personalized attention, walks, playtime, and sticking to routines, I ensure they feel loved and secure during their stay.

“Mindy was very helpful by coming to visit Scooter ahead of time, a couple weeks before he went to stay with her. They made a connection right away, as she seems to have a way with dogs. She sent pictures of Scooter while he stayed with her, which was reassuring. And she offered to bring him back to our house after we returned home, which was very helpful.”

“Jennifer and James gave such great care to my Violet! They sent so many photos and made Violet feel right at home!”

About: I’ve loved and taken care of animals my whole life (I grew up on a farm!) I can also administer shots and medications as well as skilled in senior care. I am available full time! I can also work in the evenings or any odd hours you might need. I am available weekends as well. I have a couple sweet fur babies at home to keep your pet company! We can go on long walks in our big neighborhood, trails or dog park.

“We had a 4 month old pug have a thanksgiving Day feast with this great family and a friend for our little guy to hang out with. We had daily pictures and videos sent to us. We will never put a dog in a kennel again. In fact, we have found our doggy hotel whenever we head out of town. Thanks so much for everything.”

About: I have owned and taken care of many dog breeds. I have experience with more timid pets and outgoing. Focusing on their specific needs to make sure they feel loved. Basic grooming/bathing, walking, feeding, agility, and playtime! I am a full-time college student in Columbia MO. I offer pet sitting/house sitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, and basic training. Availability M-F: 10am-9pm Sat/Sun: flexible I am most comfortable in clients homes, as that is where your pets are at best. Depending on clients needs I am able to do scheduled walks or potty breaks (if yard is fenced) as well as feeding and playtime in your home.

About: You will not be disappointed by the quality of care you receive when your dog(s) is in my care. I have loved helping others with their family needs since I was young. My career as a nanny involved helping families for over 10 years with their children, animals, and other needs. I believe they are our four-legged babies. They will receive my full attention. You will receive pictures and messages throughout my time with them. They will only eat and play with the things you allow. We do have plenty of dog toys if they are pre-approved by you of course. We now have a lovable 10 year old mini schnauzer of our own who loves being around other dogs. Our children love being around other animals as well. They understand how to be kind and gentle to animals. I do, unfortunately, have some allergies and can only care for hypoallergenic dogs. Please ask if you are unsure about your breed. We have a large fenced-in yard and our house is conveniently located with easy access to a lot of surrounding towns. Thank you! My schedule is very flexible. Some days I run my children to school or daycare and back whenever it is convenient for us. I am a stay at home mom always looking to help others. Our yard is very large and fenced-in. Yadi is our mini schnauzer. He is almost 10 years old and loves being around other dogs. We are close to North highway 63, but live in the quiet country with a lot of nature and wildlife. Our gravel road is perfect for walks. And since I am located in between so many local cities I don't mind driving to care for your pup. I can easily crate your animal for you, as well. Let's discuss what you need!

“Lindsey has been a fantastic, reliable caretaker for my senior cat when I am traveling!”

About: We’ve had pets for the last 13 years. My family and I have raised two English Springer Spaniels and currently have a 7 month Irish Setter puppy. I also have experience working with cats. I am a high school counselor, so I’m currently off for the summer until mid August. I would love to work part time during the school year I have a large backyard where dogs can play and unwind. We have a 7 month Irish Setter who loves to play with other dogs.

“Jennifer did a great job caring for our fur babies! She is very responsive and provides lots of pictures so you can see your pets while you’re away. We will definitely reach out to her again in the future!”

“Jasmine was amazing with my Precious. She kept me informed, arrived as expected, and spent so much time caring for my cat. She went beyond expectations on every visit. 100% the best sitter.”

Phillip S.

“Kyra is such a wonderful sitter!! She was so sweet with our pups and it was a relief to have someone for them to stay with during our day trip. I am so grateful for her!”

Abigail C.

“Alicen is the best gift for my dog. In the past, my dog has not had good experiences with some dogs but Alicen knows how to introduce dogs and also bring a calm confidence to the environment. I am so grateful to have found her. My pup came home happy and calm too.”

Susan B.

“Great experience! Shannon and her husband are great and are obviously pet lovers! We have a nervous doggie and Shannon sent pics and updates. Will totally request them again!”

Tim B.

“Jennifer and James were such a God-send when Spenser and I were getting married last week!! Our wedding venue allowed for our doggie to be present at the ceremony (she walked the aisle in a flower collar and pearl leash :)!) but not reception, and so we needed not only a dog sitter but one who would be willing to pick up our girl from the wedding venue! James was happy to do it, showed up right on time, and our Chewie happily went with! They sent us cute pics of our babygirl relaxing on their couch and playing in their backyard during the wedding reception. It really put us at ease. We've never had to turn to Rover for dog sitting, usually we have family do it (obviously not an option when the whole family and friend-crew is at the wedding), but now that we know how amazing James and Jennifer are, we are forever grateful and liable to ask for their help again! Thanks SO much!!”

About: We have four pups of our own and often foster 2-3 puppies at a time. We are a dog loving family. We would love to host your pup! Long time pet parents! I am a stay at home Mom. We have plenty of time to offer play, snuggles, and walks while hosting your pup and keeping them company. We have four permanent residents that are spoiled rotten. Harlo is very chill and laid back, while Martin loves to play with our frequent visitors.

“Best walker I’ve had yet! Actually took my dog to a nice trail instead of just walking around the neighborhood, and sent plenty of pictures that showed she was clearly elated! I can tell she has a true love for dogs :)”
