“Gus was so happy and obviously well taken care of when we picked him up. After a previous boarding that was terrible (facility setting) we were nervous about leaving him again. But we’re so pleased with Eric! Thank you for taking such excellent care of our buddy!”
“John and Zena took THE BEST care of our little guy, Henry. We requested care last minute, and even with a family wedding happening, they communicated quickly to confirm and send all the info we needed to get him to them. They have a beautiful, sprawling backyard which is very pet friendly. We received updates of how Henry was fitting in with their pooches and some pics of his stay. This is the first time we’ve left him with anyone other than family or a neighbor and it was an extremely positive experience.”
“Christie is absolutely amazing! She’s very sweet and accommodating. Grateful for her and for being such a great help with my dog. Thank you thank you thank you!”
“Eugene was wonderful. He was responsive, friendly, and professional, and this isn’t even to mention the physical space that our dog was able to play in! Two acres of a fenced in yard, and our dog was able to chase squirrels to her hearts’ delight. We will definitely be using Eugene again.”
“Lauren was wonderful and Winston was in such great hands. We got pictures of him and we knew he had become a part of their family during our trip. Winston gives his stay 5 stars too! Thank you Lauren!”
“Second time leaving Jeff with Matthew and Maria and they truly take care of him as if he were their own. Jeff is on his own mini vacation when with them! My favorite sitters!!!”
“I’m always very grateful to Dalton for taking such great care of Coco. You can tell he treats him with so much love and attention because every time Coco comes home, he is always happy and content. Thank you, Dalton, for taking such great care of our Coco! 🐶❤️”
“Cherry was wonderful! She provided tons of videos and photos of my two pups! Even with crazy travel issues, she was able to keep my dogs for longer than originally planned and gave me peace of mind as I navigated travel delays! Highly recommend her for watching your pets!”
“Tina is absolutely wonderful! She took wonderful care of our dog. He has a hard time eating when we leave him with a sitter, and she did everything she could to make sure he stayed happy & fed. She also kept me informed every day and sent pictures of our little guy. I never like leaving him for long but I felt so comfortable knowing he was at Tina’s. Her family is so friendly, & her house is nice and clean. Their yard is also a great place for the dogs to run around. I’m really thankful we found her before a long road trip — it was one less thing I had to worry about! I highly recommend Tina and will be using her again if we need a sitter!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and it was a wonderful experience! My dog is 12 years old and blind, so at first I was anxious about leaving her under someone else’s care. Jiyali made me feel very comfortable with her listed experience and asking the right questions before dropping her off to make sure she would be comfortable and happy during her stay. She sent frequent updates, and in every photo and video my dog looked so happy to be there! The process was very convenient, and both me and my dog were comfortable with the care she provided and will definitely request her again. I’m grateful to have found someone that could ease my anxiety and make the experience wonderful. Thank you so much for everything!”
“Our dogs LOVE staying with Ben and Shannon - I wouldn’t want them staying anywhere else. I highly recommend them to you. They sent lots of pics to us during their stay - lots of doggy happiness which made us relax. Thank you to your whole family. See you again xxx”
“Another wonderful stay for Lily! She got extra pampering and on this stay. We feel so comfortable leaving Lily with Amanda and Andrew. They are always so sweet, friendly and kind.”
“Hailey was an awesome sitter and I would highly recommend her for your dog’s care! She was very responsive and made sure my dog was taken care of while I was away!”
“Mabel had so much fun staying with Ricardo while we went on vacation. She enjoyed making new friends. This was the first time she stayed with someone she wasn't familiar with so she had a little anxiety at first but Ricardo was able to comfort her and she warmed right up making herself at home. Ricardo kept us updated daily on how our girl was doing and sent pictures which made us more comfortable leaving her. We will definitely be using Ricardo again!”
“Melanie is amazing! Not only does she provide photos throughout the day, but she is genuinely interested in your pet’s health and happiness. She made a great recommendation to help get our pup back to eating, after struggling for months to eat regularly. I highly recommend!”
“Wendy was so great!!! I felt 100% comfy leaving my Ellie boo with her. She sent me sweet cuddling pictures while we were away and took the best care of our girl. She was loved on like family, no doubt about that. EXTRA thankful for her help getting in/out at pickup while I was SOLO in the weather🤣 the sweetest human. We will def be using Wendy in the future. 10/10 recommend!!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since the age of nine. My son is 13 and a very big care lover. We have two cats, 8 & 5, and a medium sized dog. We also have a spare bedroom for animals that need time alone away from all the unfamiliarity. Your pet will have free range of the house (if comfortable) which features two large automatic litter boxes, 6ft scratching post with smaller scratching posts throughout the home, enrichment toys, beds, backyard views with plenty of wildlife to watch and two filtered water fountains available throughout the day. Both cats are on a feeding schedule, so your baby will also have to be on a schedule as well, I will work with you to figure out what times work best! All pets are vaccinated and spayed with regular checkups ups. Our dog is crate trained and does not wander the home without supervision. We will treat your baby like family and make any accommodations they will need to feel comfortable.

I have taken care of labs, poodles and collies to name a few breeds I have dog sat for. I have the patience, friendliness and responsibility to take care of any breed, age, gender and size. I look forward to making new canine friends and believe it will be mutual.

I have firsthand experience caring for my own cat and know that every cat has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your cat loves attention or prefers their own space, I'll respect their needs and make sure they feel safe and comfortable.

About: As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to leave your pet and your home in capable & caring hands when you have to be away. You will find me to be a laidback, easygoing and trustworthy home and pet sitter. I have years of experience as both a home owner and a pet owner, as well as considerable experience house/pet sitting throughout the mid-Atlantic area. I've been awarded the "Best of Thumbtack" award in the past, and have excellent reviews there. I truly care about the animals and homes placed in my care and am respectful, responsible and honest. House and pet sitting gives me the opportunity to spend time with other animals, and get to know new areas. As a pet owner myself, I enjoy offering other owners peace of mind when leaving their loved ones behind for an out-of-town trip. I know how important it is for me that my own kitty and, now, chickens (!) are safe and loved while I'm away, so I like that I can do that for other people, as well.
About: Hello, I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and turtles. For the past four years, I’ve mostly been house-sitting/taking care of a good neighbor/friend turtle who I love dearly. I’ve put her to bed and cleaned her cage, along with feeding her while sitting with her for 3+ hours most days. I’ve learned to care for pets as if they are my own and love all animals. :)) Pet care is a vital and seamless part of my daily and weekly routine. Over the past four years, I have taken care of dogs, cats, and especially a neighbor's turtle, who I have grown to love dearly. Each day, I ensure that she is fed and her cage is cleaned, and I spend over three hours sitting with her, ensuring she feels loved and cared for. This routine has taught me to care for pets as if they were my own and deepened my love for all animals. Incorporating pet care into my schedule is crucial to me. I ensure my pet is happy and healthy, from morning walks to evening snuggles. Every activity, whether feeding, brushing, or playing, is an opportunity to deepen our bond and show my pets the love and attention they deserve. Balancing pet care with my other responsibilities, such as my involvement in ROTC at Norwich University for the past three years, has honed my discipline and time management skills. In addition to my ROTC commitments this summer, I am taking summer courses and have lacrosse practices. Despite these busy schedules, I always ensure that pet care remains integral to my routine, reflecting my dedication to their well-being. As a dedicated pet caregiver/Owner, my approach to pet care is tailored to the pet's needs and the environment. I prioritize creating a safe and nurturing space in my own home or while providing services for clients. This includes regular feeding schedules, enriching activities such as walks or playtime, administering medications if needed, and maintaining cleanliness through regular grooming and sanitation practices. Additionally, I strive to provide ample affection and attention to ensure each pet feels valued and loved, whether under my roof or in the comfort of a client's home.

“Eric took amazing care of Damon! He came home so happy, and it's obvious he had a great time playing because he's completely exhausted and has been sleeping ever since. 😄 Communication with Eric was excellent from start to finish, and having his wife speak Spanish was a huge plus for me. It made everything even more comfortable and stress free. I truly think I found an amazing family to care for Damon. I highly recommend them, and I'll definitely be booking with them again!”
“Landon was great with Murphy! Very responsive and friendly. It was super easy to make arrangements for drop off and pick up. Definitely recommend and will use again.”
“Katja and her family took excellent care of my sweet one. Katja is very responsive, diligent and caring, providing equal loving care and attention as she does to her own pets.”
“Eugene is one of the nicest people you will ever meet! He watched Brinkley for us (2nd time) while we took a quick day trip. Brinkley was so excited to see Eugene when we arrived, and I know he had a fun day. Thanks again, Eugene!”
“Millie had a great day with Nichole! Nichole was responsive and updated me throughout the day on how our girl was doing. She was comfortable keeping an eye on her while she recovered from her spay and administered meds for us! We are so grateful!”
“This review comes a bit late, I apologize for not writing it sooner as I intended. I did want to make sure that pet owners that are in need of a dog sitter, to please consider Sabrina. We live in Maryland and we had to go to Virginia for a conference. We also wanted to take our pups with us so we didn't have to leave them back home. We decided to use Rover and this was our 1st time. I came across Sabrina's profile, read her reviews and had a peace about hiring her. We booked her back in mid July for mid September dates. Over the next few weeks, we kept referring to our pups as little ranch hands :-) . On the day of meeting, we were greeted by Sabrina's assistant Lauren and our dogs fell in love right away. They communicated throughout the 2 days, sent pictures whether they were securing the grounds, sniffing the animals or napping after a hard day. They were well taken care of. We absolutely plan to use Sabrina again next year pending the conference. Thank you again”
“Dustin was great. My little Demi enjoyed being at Dustin’s house. I had no worries leaving her. Unlike others, Dustin was quick to respond and flexible with hours. Folks, long and short he is great. Thanks again for taking the best care of Demi!!!”

“Cameron is a very thoughtful and conscientious dog sitter. My dog was all stressed out from a move across several states and he would not eat for two days. After just a few hours with Cameron, he was happily playing and ate his entire bowl of food. I was really impressed and so grateful.”
About: I'm a high school math teacher and my wife works from home full time. Looking to watch after your little guys so we don’t have to get another one. Our dog Penny, has recently passed however we would like to keep her pictures and memory alive on this profile*. Most days I'm up early and dont mind being active and taking morning walks. Experience wise ive taken care of neighbors cats and dogs as a teen and have had 2 dogs myself over my adult years as well as turtles if you care about that. Dropping off your pet at my place seems like the best but I'm open to stopping by your place if need be. One of us is almost always at home full time to care for your pup. My wife loves snuggles and always looking for another blanket buddy We have a large yard and one friendly toddler looking for her next best friend. Overall it is a quiet home with lots of space.
About: I’ve had many dogs since I was a child and have experienced many differing personalities and needs among dogs. We have a large fenced in backyard with lots of room for play and two pups who are ready to make new friends! I work from home full time so I am able to interact with the dogs during the day and make sure they get all the attention they need. Prefer a dog visit prior to sitting to ensure compatibility with our dogs. Our dogs are kind and playful, but can sometimes be protective of the home so visits ahead of time help greatly to ensure compatibility. I have an acre-large, fenced-in yard that provides plenty of space for dogs to run around and play. We have tennis balls and toys that we throw for them so the dogs can have a fun experience. We also have 1x crate in the event your dog is still a puppy or prefers an enclosed space overnight. For first time visits, we will introduce the dogs through our backyard to make sure all dogs have space and time to adjust to each other.
“Tiana was so amazing!! I was moving to the area that day and had a lease meeting and needed a last minute dog sitter. She had a very quick response time, was super sweet and my babies were happy and healthy! Can’t wait to use her again!!”

I love all animals the same and as they are my own. I am currently work nights for a gas station however i am available to feed and play with your furry friends during my off hours! I will feed and play with them I do not own any animals of my own however grew up picking up poops, handling feeding and walking schedules. Overall however you would like me to care for your pets i will abide by with a lot of care and love.
About: I’ve got years of experience caring for dogs and cats. My favorite thing to do is take dogs (especially my own) out for adventures by taking advantage of this beautiful state we get to call home. I love to give dogs the best time when they’re with me whether that’s going out or staying in and their safety and comfortability is my top priority. I work part time on Thursday and Friday nights until the end of December. I have a very open schedule until the end of April. I do have a dog and two cats, so it would be best to board at the owners home vs my own, but I am ok with either. I am avid about getting quality outdoor time that goes beyond potty breaks. Clear instructions of your pets exact care requirements/expectations are important to me so that I can make sure your pet is getting their needs met.

“Gus was so happy and obviously well taken care of when we picked him up. After a previous boarding that was terrible (facility setting) we were nervous about leaving him again. But we’re so pleased with Eric! Thank you for taking such excellent care of our buddy!”
“John and Zena took THE BEST care of our little guy, Henry. We requested care last minute, and even with a family wedding happening, they communicated quickly to confirm and send all the info we needed to get him to them. They have a beautiful, sprawling backyard which is very pet friendly. We received updates of how Henry was fitting in with their pooches and some pics of his stay. This is the first time we’ve left him with anyone other than family or a neighbor and it was an extremely positive experience.”
“Great experience! Shawn was very knowledgeable about puppy care and responsive with planning the stay. He sent pictures and my dog seemed really happy to get to run around with the other dogs during his stay.”
“Lauren was wonderful and Winston was in such great hands. We got pictures of him and we knew he had become a part of their family during our trip. Winston gives his stay 5 stars too! Thank you Lauren!”
“Second time leaving Jeff with Matthew and Maria and they truly take care of him as if he were their own. Jeff is on his own mini vacation when with them! My favorite sitters!!!”
“I’m always very grateful to Dalton for taking such great care of Coco. You can tell he treats him with so much love and attention because every time Coco comes home, he is always happy and content. Thank you, Dalton, for taking such great care of our Coco! 🐶❤️”
“This was our first time booking with Aimee, and everything from booking to pickup went great. Communication was timely, and we received an update and pictures everyday. Both our babies made new friends, and got to have the staycation that fit their personalities. Bella got to relax and chill while our wild child Biscuit had a friend to match his energy. They even got a report card which I must say was graded pretty accurately. Thank you Aimee and family!”
“As usual, Hector was so happy being with Amber and Dan! They took a perfect care of him, sending us pictures and concerns. Amber and Dan are just perfect, allowing dogs living their best playtime during the time we have to travel.”
“I am a very protective dog mama and Kathleen made me feel so comfortable! Ziggy loves going there and playing with friends. A promotion at work lead to more travel and i feel comfortable now! Thanks so much!”
“Gail accommodated our request last minute to watch our puppy Coco. We were very nervous to leave her with someone new on such short notice, but Gail immediately put our worries at ease with her warm demeanor. She was also very flexible with drop off and pickup when traffic altered our plans a bit. We would definitely recommend Gail. She is very sweet and obviously has a true love for dogs.”
“Lisa was amazing! She took such great care of our dog Abby while we were away. Abby came home happy, well cared for, and even clean, it seemed like Lisa even gave her a bath while she had her! She was incredibly accommodating, especially when our flight was unexpectedly canceled due to weather. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Abby was in good hands. Highly recommend Lisa!”
“Rachael is so awesome! She sent us videos of our old boy daily and provided the best care including pills and eye drops. If you need a dog sitter in the Chesapeake area I highly recommend her 🤩”
“Cameron was a total lifesaver when my original sitter canceled last minute. He invited me over right away and gave me a full tour of his home — it’s truly set up perfectly for boarding dogs. I felt completely comfortable leaving my puppy with him. He sent frequent updates and photos throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. I highly recommend Cameron to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.”
“Hailey was an awesome sitter and I would highly recommend her for your dog’s care! She was very responsive and made sure my dog was taken care of while I was away!”
“Wendy was so great!!! I felt 100% comfy leaving my Ellie boo with her. She sent me sweet cuddling pictures while we were away and took the best care of our girl. She was loved on like family, no doubt about that. EXTRA thankful for her help getting in/out at pickup while I was SOLO in the weather🤣 the sweetest human. We will def be using Wendy in the future. 10/10 recommend!!”
