“Carly was great- I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her, she gave me frequent updates with pictures AND, she has a fenced in backyard. I would definitely board my dog with her again!”

“I have been a Rover customer for a long time, mostly in AZ,so I have had many Rover sitters in my lifetime. I have never had such a wonderful Rover sitter as Jennifer and her loving family. They showered my dogs, Murphy and Sam with such love and attention that i didnt worry at all! Not only did she send me many pics of them playing, but with their dogs too. I know that she's a keeper for sure!! I will use her for sure next time!!”
“Lorna is always super flexible and accommodating. I often ask if I can pick him up early and she always let me :-). She is the BEST and I will continue to use her in the future.”
“Elizabeth took amazing care of our Goldendoodle Daphne for two nights. She sent pictures and kept us updated while we enjoyed a family vacation at Great Wolf. She was very communicative and friendly. We will definitely use her again when we return to GW! This was our first experience with Rover and our first experience with our dog being left in the care of someone else. Elizabeth helped keep our anxiety way down!”

“Even I and dog don’t understand English very well, she really takes care of my dog !!! I really appreciate your kind support 😭!!! My dog is kind of very sensitive dog, but she treats my dog very well. She is really professional!!!! I am happy she accepts us 🙇 Thank you very much !”

“Natalie was amazing! Super nice, knowledgeable about dogs and boarding, and so welcoming! Our doggo Jordi took a liking to her immediately and we were so happy to leave him in the care of a loving family instead of a nameless/faceless boarding facility. Jordi only stayed one night, but we received multiple photos and videos and messages about his activities and it was such a relief knowing he was so well cared for. We will definitely use Natalie to board Jordi in the future when the need arises again and we will be recommending her to any friends in need of pet sitting as well. Thank you so much, Natalie!”

“Can’t recommend Hannah enough! She has been SO great to work with, has the best yard for playing, sent lots of pictures/updates, and our dog loves the whole family! We’re so happy to have found her, and are looking forward to more stays in the future!”

“We were heartbroken when our normal sitter we found on here moved away! We tried a few others on here and none loved them like Jessica did… until now! I felt completely at ease as soon as we walked in and Lucy made herself right at home. Alexa has kept me updated the whole time and loved her like she was her own. She has become our new favorite dog person!”

“Thank you both SO much for opening your home to my puppy while I was away. I sure did miss her, but I did not worry at all!! I knew she was in good hands and getting lots of love and attention. Really appreciate the daily pictures as well!!”

“Eric and his family took wonderful care of our dogs. They treated them like family, and our dogs were so happy and healthy when we picked them up. I highly recommend Eric and will be using him again!”

“Samantha was great with my dog and two cats! She truly has the best interest of your pet at heart. Charlie loved boarding at Samantha’s house. She is consistent with pictures and updates giving me peace of mind my babies are happy and well. I’ll definitely be using Samantha in the future for dog and cat sitting.”

“Highly recommend! I felt very comfortable leaving my pup here and would certainly rebook. Jessica was very responsive and I truly felt she understood my dog’s needs. She is quick to respond, her home is set up well, and my dog was very relaxed when I came to get him. Thank you!!”

“Sheryl is absolutely wonderful. She cared for our puppy like it was her own. Great communication, highly recommend. Would travel back just for her to take care of our dog! Thank you Sheryl!!”

“Stephanie was easy to work with and super flexible with my changing schedule. Baruch was well taken cared of. And we got awesome pictures every day of him having fun.”


“Jacqui was wonderful with our doodles! They had the perfect weekend! She texted and sent pictures often and was quick to respond! 10/10 will definitely use her for our future needs!”

“Excellent experience with David. He was more than welcoming with our pup… mind you our pup has an insane amount of energy and he was able to handle her just fine. I’d absolutely use David’s service again and would also recommend. He truly seems to have a knack for animals and truly enjoys them..”

“Rita was amazing! I was very nervous at first but she welcomed our pup into her home and took excellent care of him! Her introduction was wonderful! We received photos and videos while we were away and she would update us on how our pup was doing! What a wonderful experience and the sweetest lady! I couldn’t have asked for anything better!”

“Loved all the pictures you sent. Stef got back Sunday night and the cats acted like they had a wonderful time while we were gone. Thank you for taking such good care of them.”

“Kelli was very patient with our shy special needs cat. She gave him space and slowly earned his trust. After a few days he was greeting her at the door ready for his treat. Kelli learned the medication needs of our cat and handled the tasks like a pro. A new skill she can add on her resume. Thank you Ms. Kelli. Scooby, and Marcel, thank you too.”

“Kristin did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats. She is professional and organized in the entire process from pre-visits to care and post communications. This is the first time leaving our cats and would not have had confidence without her. She is a lovely caring person and we highly recommend her! Janis and Randy Cole”
“Ashley is amazing! She took the very best care of our pets while we were gone and kept us informed of everything so we did not worry at all. Ashley went above and beyond our expectations so I know we found the best pet sitter ever! I highly recommend her to anyone who hates to leave their fur babies behind!”
“I needed a drop in last minute and I had never used this app before or any cat sitter/drop in service for that matter. Ashley answered my questions and I didn’t feel like I had to worry too much about my cats being at the house while we were gone. I really loved that she sent pictures to update me on how they were doing. My male cat is very shy and I honestly didn’t expect to see many pictures of him because he’s a hider. But she was still able to picture him and let me know how he was doing. Will be using Ashley again next time we have to go out of town!”

“Absolutely perfect with my cat. I HIGHLY recommend him, as he’s extremely attentive, loving to our kitty and even works under a bit of pressure. Our litter robot fritzed out and he was able to pivot super easily! He treated our King like a King!”

“Annabell did a great job with our pets! Along with our 2 cats, we also have a couple exotics. I needed her to mist my gecko enclosure pretty much every visit and she did it amazingly! I was super impressed that she even checked to make sure the lid was secured properly, which most sitters don't know to check for. We'll definitely be scheduling her again! Thanks Annabell!”

About: Hi, I’m Hayley! I’m a fur mom to a 8 year old golden retriever and two 4 year old kitties. My favorite thing to do is to encourage each of their personalities through play and cuddle sessions. I am a huge animal lover, and I am constantly inspired by animals to be a more caring and patient human being. I have various experience in dog-handling and walking from volunteering at animal shelters, handling at adoption events, and caring for clients here on Rover. I also have learned many pet care tips and skills from being a pet owner and an employee at animal oriented retail stores. Each animal has their own personality and special needs that needs to be taken care of, and I am here for the job! I look forward to meeting you and your loved one 🐾 I have open availability throughout the weekend to take care of your babies! I am available to provide walks and check-ins! As I am currently renting, I will not be able to provide services at my residence. However, I am happy to provide services at your residence, neighborhood, or local park!

Please let me know of any feeding schedules, temperament levels, and tips for providing the best care to your baby.

Including my prior knowledge in HS from many vet tech classes and etc. I also currently work at doggies day out and deal with all types of breeds.

About: I’ve cared for cats for several years and truly love being around them. I’m comfortable feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playing, and making sure cats feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs so they stay happy, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I’ve stayed in houses caring for multiple pets such as dogs and cats. One home had 5 dogs, 2 whom were blind, and all puppies used pads to use the restroom. All puppies had a specific eating regimen that I had no problem taking notes on and catering to. I’ve dropped in to feed cats, but being a cat mom myself, I do not mind spending quality time with the kitties! I’m a middle school teacher, so pet sitting is reserved for after school hours, during Fall, Winter, and/or Summer breaks. I’m flexible and communicate often and quickly! For my personal cats, I spoil them like crazy! They have all of the toys they could ask for and I play with them often. I can tell when they’re ready to cuddle and relax, and I love this time! They take a nap on my lap and I get to crochet! I love on others pets the same way. If there’s a treat station and a favorite toy, let me know so I can spoil the clients pets too! I’ve watched plenty of older pets who just need a companion to sit on the couch with them, so I always bring my crochet things to fill the time.
About: I have taken care of pets of my own and of friends for the last 5 years. I do bathing, nail trimming, walking, and have a lot of patience with animals with anxiety. Morning, afternoon, evening and nights. We have 3 cats, a dog, a ferret, and a bunny. We love our pets like family and can't wait to love yours too. All of our animals are trained to love and respect all other animals. Our dog is a gentle and loving German shepherd/ husk mix and our cats don't hiss or yowl at other cats or dogs.

About: I have taken care of a variety of animals as big as horses and small as fish. I walk dogs and allow them to have play time, especially high energy dogs, they need it the most. I can cook meals for the animals if needed for a special diet. I reward with treats for good behavior. I don't mind if I need to get down and dirty. I've helped deliver a litter of kittens and nursed a kitten from a few days old. I work 8-2:30 in Persia and have to pick up by son before 3 at Preschool . I have 3 pets of my own. I let my pup out as needed, she lets me know or at minimum every 2 hours unless asleep.

I have a fenced in yard that is 6ft tall and I have a furr baby that would love to play and keep yours company. I also have 2 indoor cats but they would more than likely hide till adjusted to a new visitor.
“Hands down the best experience I have ever had with a dog sitter! Natalie was so dedicated to my sweet Heidi. I will have to admit, I felt some kind of way with how eager my sweet girl was to hop out of the car to go see and spend the day with Ms . Natalie 😂😂. This truly has been a perfect match for our family .”

“Erick was quick to respond to our request for day care and instantly showed genuine care for our very sheltered rescue dog. Our dog can be shy and easily startled, but Erick’s patient approach helped her feel comfortable. We truly appreciated his understanding and compassion”
“Brutus had a day of doggy daycare with Sheryl today and had a ball! She was so attentive to him- playing with him and taking him on walks. Sheryl sent pictures, videos and updates. She followed his schedule exactly. We couldn’t have been more pleased! We plan on using Sheryl in the future anytime we need care for Brutus!”

“Alexa was wonderful! She was great to communicate with and answered all of m questions! She took wonderful care of Rae and we love her and would definitely book again!”

“Hannah was great with our 6 month old Husky puppy, Stevie. Stevie felt right at home with Hannah’s family and loved playing all day long. She came home happy and tired out. We will definitely use Hannah again in the future!”

“Rita was wonderful with my baby, Harper! She made sure Harper was comfortable in the setting and greeting process, then introduced her to the other dogs in her care that day. I will definitely use Rita for daycare and overnight stays in the future.”

About: We've always had fur babies until now. We had to let our last pet cross the rainbow bridge at 17 yrs old. We rescued him when he was 5. Such a sweet boy!! We've also had German Shepherds, a Beagle, Rabbits, and Guinea pigs. Experience with Puppies and Senior dogs. FYI--I tend to be a bit over protective. I was able to retire early, so I'm home ALOT! Home is my happy place. My husband of 31 yrs still works a few days a week but is also home often and loves animals. We have a fenced in backyard with grass areas, and a pool. I'm very protective and would take your baby out front on leash, and out back on leash or under strict supervision, whichever you dictate. We have a large front yard and side yard and live on a quiet dead end street which is perfect for walks. We also have a fairly large home where small dogs can get plenty of indoor exercise. Home is my happy place! I retired early so I'm home most of the time. My husband of 31 yrs still works a few days a week but is home other than that. He loves animals too! I have a fenced in back yard and a large front & side yard. I'm over protective and will keep your pet on leash outside and well supervised.
“Jennifer is great! She picked up and dropped off my puppy and was early for the meet up both times. She is very pleasant and professional. I would definitely recommend her to others and book her again when in the area.”

“I was worried about leaving my Maggie with a stranger but as soon as I met Mikayla my worry disapaited. She clearly loves dogs and Maggie loved being there. She came home and slept for hours.”
“I am a first time Rover user and my Chloe stayed with Shirley and Jeff all day yesterday to get acquainted with them and their home. All I can say is when I came to pick her up, she was relaxed, happy and didn't really care that I was there. You don't know how happy this made me. Thank you Shirley and Jeff for treating Chloe like your own. She'll be back for more love..... Donna & Guy”

“Brooke did an amazing job! Excellent communication! It’s such a peace of mind knowing my dog is not in a crowded, noisy facility, but in a comfortable, personal home setting. Tank had so much fun, and we look forward to booking with Brooke again.”

“Love! Stephanie was super sweet and understanding. She was incredibly accommodating with our schedule and able to wear out our two noisy hounds. Provided several photos of the dogs living their best lives. Would definitely use again, if she’ll have us!”

Plenty of room to walk and see nature.Great exercise for me, animals and great nature.
“Alexa was great! She was super communicative and showed up on time every single day for a month to walk our two dogs while we were settling into a new house. She got them plenty of exercise each day, gave updates on how they did on each walk, adjusted walk lengths based on the weather and how much energy the dogs had each day, and overall was super attentive to each dog’s individual needs. Our boys are missing her already, and we will definitely be using her in the future!”

About: I’ve raised one dog since he was a puppy. He is now almost 13, and another who’s now 6. I truly understand every stage of a dog’s life, from playful puppy energy to senior care and comfort.

About: I have owned different kinds of animals all my life! I currently work at Ballad Health and am wanting to do Rover in my spare time. I volunteered with PAWS Of SWVA for 3 years.

Please make sure to send me any additional information about your pup that I would need to know. I will follow your routine and give updates every 1-2 hours. I currently work full time through the week. But I am trying to find something to do in my evenings/weekend. I have plenty of time to fit more loving animals into my schedule. We are currently working on building a fence. Our doggies go on walks daily and get plenty of play time/exercise. We also like to take them on car rides.

My apartment has an unfenced yard, and I live JUST 1 min away from our community dog park.

About: I have owned several pets in my life, dogs and cats. I have ample experience in caring for and raising said animals. I specifically have a cat currently, Autumn, who I found as a stray in the woods as a kitten and raised her to a healthy state. I am currently working a 4-10's schedule with flexible days. So long as I have two weeks in advance, any day should be okay. On those off days, I mostly stay at home, so your animals will receive plenty of care. I have two cats, of whom I take care of well. Each has their own litter box and I ensure both get a fair share of wet food while also ensuring they don't get overfed. I also ensure to play with them at least twice a day. I have an unfenced yard but am willing and able to walk the dog directly on a leash, my yard is large enough to walk them in the yard itself.
About: Hi! I'm a passionate animal lover with nearly 3 years of pet sitting experience caring for pups of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I also work at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, so I'm very comfortable handling multiple dogs, keeping up with routines, and making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. On top of that, I have 5 dogs and 2 cats of my own, so caring for animals is truly part of my everyday life! I also have experience cat sitting and understand that every cat has their own unique personality and needs. Whether your pet loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or just a calm companion, I'm here to make their stay fun and stress-free while making your life a little easier too 🐾 I currently work at barkbound which is a daycare and boarding facility for dogs so whenever i’m not working there i am free to come by and do drop in visits or stay at your house! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they are supervised, secure, and treated like family at all times. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, and any special care requests to help pets feel comfortable and keep their routine consistent. In clients’ homes, I respect both the pets’ routines and the home itself by keeping everything clean, secure, and stress-free while providing regular updates and lots of love and care 🐾

“Carly was great- I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her, she gave me frequent updates with pictures AND, she has a fenced in backyard. I would definitely board my dog with her again!”

“I have been a Rover customer for a long time, mostly in AZ,so I have had many Rover sitters in my lifetime. I have never had such a wonderful Rover sitter as Jennifer and her loving family. They showered my dogs, Murphy and Sam with such love and attention that i didnt worry at all! Not only did she send me many pics of them playing, but with their dogs too. I know that she's a keeper for sure!! I will use her for sure next time!!”
“Elizabeth took amazing care of our Goldendoodle Daphne for two nights. She sent pictures and kept us updated while we enjoyed a family vacation at Great Wolf. She was very communicative and friendly. We will definitely use her again when we return to GW! This was our first experience with Rover and our first experience with our dog being left in the care of someone else. Elizabeth helped keep our anxiety way down!”

“Even I and dog don’t understand English very well, she really takes care of my dog !!! I really appreciate your kind support 😭!!! My dog is kind of very sensitive dog, but she treats my dog very well. She is really professional!!!! I am happy she accepts us 🙇 Thank you very much !”

“Natalie was amazing! Super nice, knowledgeable about dogs and boarding, and so welcoming! Our doggo Jordi took a liking to her immediately and we were so happy to leave him in the care of a loving family instead of a nameless/faceless boarding facility. Jordi only stayed one night, but we received multiple photos and videos and messages about his activities and it was such a relief knowing he was so well cared for. We will definitely use Natalie to board Jordi in the future when the need arises again and we will be recommending her to any friends in need of pet sitting as well. Thank you so much, Natalie!”

“Can’t recommend Hannah enough! She has been SO great to work with, has the best yard for playing, sent lots of pictures/updates, and our dog loves the whole family! We’re so happy to have found her, and are looking forward to more stays in the future!”

“We were heartbroken when our normal sitter we found on here moved away! We tried a few others on here and none loved them like Jessica did… until now! I felt completely at ease as soon as we walked in and Lucy made herself right at home. Alexa has kept me updated the whole time and loved her like she was her own. She has become our new favorite dog person!”

“Eric and his family took wonderful care of our dogs. They treated them like family, and our dogs were so happy and healthy when we picked them up. I highly recommend Eric and will be using him again!”

“Samantha was great with my dog and two cats! She truly has the best interest of your pet at heart. Charlie loved boarding at Samantha’s house. She is consistent with pictures and updates giving me peace of mind my babies are happy and well. I’ll definitely be using Samantha in the future for dog and cat sitting.”

“Highly recommend! I felt very comfortable leaving my pup here and would certainly rebook. Jessica was very responsive and I truly felt she understood my dog’s needs. She is quick to respond, her home is set up well, and my dog was very relaxed when I came to get him. Thank you!!”

“Stephanie was easy to work with and super flexible with my changing schedule. Baruch was well taken cared of. And we got awesome pictures every day of him having fun.”


“Jacqui was wonderful with our doodles! They had the perfect weekend! She texted and sent pictures often and was quick to respond! 10/10 will definitely use her for our future needs!”

“Excellent experience with David. He was more than welcoming with our pup… mind you our pup has an insane amount of energy and he was able to handle her just fine. I’d absolutely use David’s service again and would also recommend. He truly seems to have a knack for animals and truly enjoys them..”

“Rita was amazing! I was very nervous at first but she welcomed our pup into her home and took excellent care of him! Her introduction was wonderful! We received photos and videos while we were away and she would update us on how our pup was doing! What a wonderful experience and the sweetest lady! I couldn’t have asked for anything better!”

“Very polite and punctual when picking up my fur baby. She communicated very well and sent pictures showing how much fun my baby was having!!! Will definitely be reaching out again when we need another sitter!!”

“Love that we have someone we can trust with our fur baby! Cassandra is so good with our Pepper who is always so excited to see her. Cassandra was even great about being flexible with time for us. 💯 recommend her!”

“Thom was the absolute BEST dog sitter I have ever had. And I have been using rover for years! He sent me frequent pictures, videos, and updates of my girl while she was there. He took amazing care of her and handled her high energy so well! He is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and so kind. I have never felt more comfortable leaving my girl with a new sitter. I recommend him to everyone!”
