“Eric was super responsive to my worries with placing Juno for overnight boarding. Juno is very anxious and Eric and his family were kind ,caring and understanding. He sent pictures and texted which helped me feel connected. Juno also found a doggy friend and this calmed her anxiety. I already booked another stay with Eric. Highly recommend Eric!”
“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.”
“When I was looking for a pet sitter for our senior dog and read the reviews of Theresa and her family I knew she would love our fur baby, Holly, as much as her own family. Thanks to Theresa we were able to enjoy our week in Duck, NC knowing Holly was close by. She sent us daily photos of Holly, which also confirmed our decision to have her stay with Theresa. I can’t thank her enough for patience and love this week! If you’re looking for a pet sitter in OBX who will love your pet as much as you do... I highly recommend Theresa!”
“Christie is the best. She and her family always treat Shelby as one of their own. We are so lucky to have found her. She is always the first person I look to for sitting Shelby.”
“This was our second time with María and Matthew, and once again they were fantastic! I feel so at ease knowing my fur baby is in such loving and reliable hands. Highly recommend!”
“This is the third or fourth time I’ve used Eugene to watch my dog. I get updates and videos daily, my dog is happy to see Eugene at drop off and happy at pick up. Highly recommend his services- he’s very kind and respectful.”
“Lauren and her wonderful family are the very best sitters and genuinely love dogs. This is Ollie's second time visiting, and I know he's happy and loved; he always has a blast playing with Lauren's dog, Milo. Thank you!”
“Cherry was wonderful with our Roscoe! She was available last minute and spoiled us (and him!) with walks and snuggles and we got tons of photos during his stay! Will absolutely book again when the need arises!”
“Katja watch our labradoodle for 5 days and she kept me updated with pictures and text daily. I can tell he had an amazing time because he has been super pouty since he’s been home and he was sad to leave. I would 100% recommend her to anyone that is looking for a pet sitter in the Virginia Beach area!”
“She watched our pup for 2+ weeks, we didn't get our flight info until like 30 days prior and she was super flexible and accommodating but we didn't have service overseas and she still sent tons of pictures, playing with her and one of 3 trips also played with bubbles and the most fun times ever! I'd trust her over and over with my fur baby anytime!”
“Having Amanda S. and Andrew watch our Kingsman during a trip for a funeral was a Godsend. They kept us informed the entire time and sent frequent pictures. I would highly recommend them and I will definitely be requesting their assistance in the future.”
“Piper had a wonderful time with Tina and the other dogs there! Communication was great and I enjoyed the pictures I received from her! I will definitely be using her services again!”
“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!”
“Morgan did an awesome job taking care of our puppies! Kept me updated daily on how things were going and sent pictures. Most definitely will use her again and refer her to any friends in search of a sitter. Thank you Morgan!”
“Sabrina treated my dog, Cali, like a member of her own family. She made sure Cali was comfortable and had an enjoyable stay. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again! Thank you!”
“Cassandra and Tradd are the absolute best! Hazel has such a great time with them! Our mind is at ease knowing that the level of care is simply exceptional!”
“So much care and love given to my pups! They sent pictures of all the activities they did, and my dogs were happy when we picked them up! Awesome sitters!!”

“Renee went above and beyond for my kitties on our 11 day vacation! Her daily reports were very detailed and she took the best pics of them so I could see them every day 🥰She even helped out with some outdoor decorations which were getting battered by the nor’easter!! Her communication and willingness to help was so awesome while we were out of the country- I can’t recommend her enough for anyone looking to hire from Rover 🥰”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages, temperaments, and needs—from playful kittens to senior cats that require extra patience and attention. I understand that cats thrive on routine and a calm environment, so I focus on creating a stress-free experience while you’re away. During each visit, I ensure your cat is fed on schedule, litter boxes are kept clean, and they receive the right balance of attention—whether that’s playtime, affection, or simply quiet companionship. I’m comfortable administering basic medications, monitoring behavior changes, and providing updates so you always know how your cat is doing. Cleanliness, reliability, and clear communication are my top priorities. My goal is simple: ➡️ Keep your cat comfortable ➡️ Keep your home clean ➡️ Give you total peace of mind while you’re away
“Jenna was wonderful with our two cat girls. One needed daily medication and Jenna was great with administering the daily meds to Dolly. She sent messages and pictures daily. We loved her sense of humor and how she quickly figured out each cat’s quirky, fun personality. My favorite photos and messages were of Jenna “cradling Dolly like a baby”. She put our minds at ease and we will gladly ask Jenna to care for our girls in the future. Thank you, Jenna!”

“I was reluctant to use rover because I haven’t been away from my cat before but she was amazing!! She gave daily updates and pictures and made me feel comfortable with the idea of rover. Will 100% book her again the next time I leave town 🩷”
About: All my life I've had all kinds of animals. And all my life there has always been at least a dog or more of all sizes in my household. I am a stay at home mom so being there for you pet is like a walk in the park (or literally). You know your pup is in good hands 😁 I have plenty of references that can reassure you I am a big animal person. I loved volunteering when I was a teenager and almost became a vet but chose the art lifestyle until the mom lifestyle choose me.

“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!”

“We are so appreciative of Ricardo and his family opening up their home for our dogs. Taking it slow and making sure they have a good time while we are getting settled into our new house. We get pictures and updates throughout the day and our dogs are so excited to get there to spend the day. Very grateful to have found them nearby to us.”
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 grew up on a farm in Ohio taking care of all sorts of animals. Being a Dog Mom myself I know the daily stress and worries that come through your head while you're busy days take over your schedule. We make bath time fun, or at least try our best! Every dog has their own personalities and needs throughout the day- am here for them and you! My constant goal is to provide the security to you and fun to your fur babes at any time because I understand life isn't 9-5 and your needs cant be confined. I have an open yard and an open floor plan house for all the zoomie needs. We are a walkable distance to the Experimental forest for short or long winded walks. I have space for crates and a large crate for use if needed. My babe Zoe will keep great company to your pet and share all of her toys. Your pet will be so loved however you want to utilize my service opportunities!
“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!”
“Gus had an amazing time with Nichole….he didnt want to leave! She was excellent with communication and sent the cutest pictures of him while playing with other dogs. So thankful for the time and love she spent taking care of our puppy for a few hours.”
“Teddy & Mini had a blast! They had so much fun that they were sleeping on the drive home. Thank you Michelle for taking care of my babies like they were your own! Definitely recommend this sitter & will be booking again if we are ever in the area again!”
About: I currently have two well loved pups, both on daily medication. I believe every pup deserves love, regardless of behavior or perceived aggression. I have experience with heartworm positive dogs as well as dogs who experience seizures. I am a current college student living at home with my family so I am available with lots of free time for your furry friend! I will occasionally have my partner over for meals or to just hang out if I am house sitting, depending on the distance and length of the booking. I believe that keeping an animal clean and safe is the best way to ensure health, as well as making sure the animal is comfortable with me. If I am watching someone who is shy, I am more than happy to give them their space (while ensuring they are safe).
About: As a pet sitter, my goal is to provide more than basic care. I want your dog to feel safe, understood, and comfortable in your absence while maintaining the routines and expectations they are accustomed to at home. I understand the importance of secure handling, appropriate exercise, mental stimulation, and respecting each dog’s individual temperament. I am especially passionate about caring for working and high-drive breeds, including dogs that may require experienced handling, structured routines, or additional enrichment. I also understand that some dogs can be sensitive to changes in environment or routine, and I strive to make their time away from their owners as stress-free as possible. Your pets are part of your family, and I treat their care with the same seriousness, attention, and respect I would expect for my own animals. My years of experience with working dogs allow me to provide knowledgeable, dependable, and individualized care for dogs that need someone who truly understands them. Running my own farm allows me the freedom and flexibility to accommodate almost any routines needed for daily walks or drop ins or house sitting. I’ll provide attentive care tailored to your pet’s individual needs, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, companionship, and basic household care. With 25 years of experience working with animals, I’m comfortable caring for pets with a variety of personalities, energy levels, and routines.
About: I have spent my entire life surrounded by animals and have developed deep, hands-on experience with specialized pet care. I am incredibly comfortable administering medications and managing complex health routines. My background includes bottle-feeding newborn kittens, managing delicate medical schedules, and providing the strict, attentive care required for rescue dogs undergoing intense heartworm treatments. Our large, two-story home and fully fenced backyard offer a highly secure, adaptable space for your pets. Whether your dog or cat needs a lively vacation or meticulous medical supervision, they will be safe, comfortable, and expertly cared for here. As a stay at home mom, I am full time at home and dedicated to our daily household and animal routines. Because I am here throughout the day, your pet will receive constant supervision, regular bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention. Pet care doesn't just fit into my schedul, it is a seamless part of my everyday life at home. Safety and structure are my top priorities. In our home, we maintain a highly secure environment featuring a large, fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time. We keep a well-managed household where guest pets are integrated smoothly alongside our own crate-trained dogs. Whether your pet requires strict crate time, routine medical or medication management, or just a calm, supervised space to relax, I ensure their specific safety and emotional needs are met 24/7.

“I'm basing this review on my limited experience with hiring dog walkers. This is my first time using this app or any dog walker services for that matter. I was amazed how easy it was to sign up and find a qualified dog walker under such short notice. I was worried my dog's stature and puppy manners would be intimidating, but was worried for nothing. The walker, Renee, handled him really well and passed in flying colors. Will use this service and walker again in the future if the need arises again.”
About: I've taken care of animals for most of my life. Everyone around me always trusts me to make sure they're walked, fed, watered and loved whether they ask for it or not.

About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life. I have experience with all ages and senior care, as my childhood dog is now 13, and I frequently pet sit and care for her. I have taken care of family and friends dogs as well, from the ages of puppies all the way to senior. With always being around various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, I have learned many things throughout the years. I have experience walking reactive and nonreactive dogs. As well as, bathing, playtime, potty breaks on and off leash, and, of course, giving lots of love and snuggles! I also have experience giving pills if needed. I would love to help with any needs you and your babies may have! I am currently free almost any day and time during the week. I am an ultrasound technician, and I am taking a break from working full time. I stay home and care for our home, and get to love on my doggy in the meantime. I have lots of availability to help out anyone who is looking for a caring person who will give their baby lots of love, and care for their unique needs. My dog Chili is a two year old rescue who was previously abused and became a stray. We had to help her overcome her anxiety through trust and training. We trained her to walk and potty on a leash, crate training, dog and people socialization, commands, and to be off leash. I have learned lots of patience and training skills to help her become comfortable with us and others. Now she is my little velcro dog and protector haha! I have learned throughout the years to always earn a dog’s trust to help ease any anxiety when meeting them. Boundaries are very important to me as well. If any are stated to me, they will be upheld. I appreciate those that listen to mine, so I will always listen to others.

“Eric was super responsive to my worries with placing Juno for overnight boarding. Juno is very anxious and Eric and his family were kind ,caring and understanding. He sent pictures and texted which helped me feel connected. Juno also found a doggy friend and this calmed her anxiety. I already booked another stay with Eric. Highly recommend Eric!”
“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.”
“When I was looking for a pet sitter for our senior dog and read the reviews of Theresa and her family I knew she would love our fur baby, Holly, as much as her own family. Thanks to Theresa we were able to enjoy our week in Duck, NC knowing Holly was close by. She sent us daily photos of Holly, which also confirmed our decision to have her stay with Theresa. I can’t thank her enough for patience and love this week! If you’re looking for a pet sitter in OBX who will love your pet as much as you do... I highly recommend Theresa!”
“Man, all the reviews were right…. Kobe is the dog whisperer. He made our dog feel like he was family and he was at his home away from home. It’s like a giant sleepover for dogs…. a puppy party. This guy is the real deal!”
“Rose took amazing care of my two fur babies for 3 nights. Her homestead is the perfect place to board your animals, and she is very personable. She is great to work with! She sent many pics of the dogs out and about while under her care. One of my dogs is a sweetie with humans but doesn't always interact well with other dogs (outside of his fur sister) and certainly not small animals. I was so worried about boarding him. Rose knew exactly how to take care of him and both dogs came back to our family happy and well-cared for. I will definitely be boarding with her again in the future! Thanks again Rose and family!”
“This was our second time with María and Matthew, and once again they were fantastic! I feel so at ease knowing my fur baby is in such loving and reliable hands. Highly recommend!”

“Katja watch our labradoodle for 5 days and she kept me updated with pictures and text daily. I can tell he had an amazing time because he has been super pouty since he’s been home and he was sad to leave. I would 100% recommend her to anyone that is looking for a pet sitter in the Virginia Beach area!”
“Kathleen is truly a gem! I cannot recommend Kathleen enough as a dog-sitter. From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease leaving my fur baby in her care. She’s reliable, caring, and genuinely loves animals—which shows in every interaction. Kathleen took the time to get to know my dog’s personality, quirks, and routines, and kept me updated with adorable photos and messages while I was away.”
“Thank you so much for your kindness and patience with our energetic little boy. We know he can be a bit of a challenge sometimes, but you never gave up, and we truly appreciate it.”
“First time using Rover and I’m glad I was linked up with Sherry. She is very quick to response to questions and concerns. My puppy’s stay was very pleasant and I received daily pictures from her. I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Highly recommended!!!!!”
“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.”
“Courtney is great! This was our first time using a pet sitter other than a family member and we will definitely be using her again in the future. Fantastic communication and kept us updated as well with pictures/video clips! Our girls seemed to have a blast hanging out with her and her pack! ?”
“I was afraid my dog wouldn’t be able to stay at someone’s home and true enough Hailey with confidence for sure knew exactly what to do. She was patient with me and absolutely reassuring that everything’s okay. She sent photos daily and was super communicative! I will be booking again!”
“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.”
