“I’m tremendously excited because I have found my fur baby an excellent sitter. Kari has been a heaven sent. It was during an emergency that I found her listed here on Rover. She created a wonderful atmosphere to care for my fur baby while I was away. She followed all my instructions and even sent a photo during his stay. He was a happy bean when I returned to pick him up. I love it, I’ll definitely keep her in mind for my next getaway.”
“I cannot say enough good things about John. My Ozzy is a “anxious “ pup, but with John he is very calm and happy. I love the frequent texts and photos letting me know that Ozzy is settling in well.”
“I really felt like Enzo was being taken care of the whole time I was gone. Emily was very kind and flexible with my schedule. I even got some really good professional grade pictures from her of Enzo! All around great experience.”
“Jody took wonderful care of our pup! I wholeheartedly recommend her as a sitter. Our puppy had an amazing time on her farm, especially enjoying the chance to play and socialize with the other dogs. Jody made sure he felt loved and well cared for every step of the way. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“I recently had the pleasure of using Aaliyah's dog boarding services (for 5+ days), and I was very pleased with the experience. From the start, Aaliyah was very communicative, typically sending updates at the end of the day. These updates included not just adorable photos, but also detailed text messages that gave me peace of mind knowing my precious fur baby was well taken care of. Aaliyah's home is clean, welcoming, and a great environment for dogs/pets. This is extremely important to me because my pupper has a tendency to get into things he isn't supposed to if he has the opportunity. Her own dogs are a delight—fun and friendly, making for great companions for our pup. Her family is equally warm and engaging, adding to the overall positive atmosphere. I felt at ease knowing my dog was in such a loving and attentive environment. If you're looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, I highly recommend Aaliyah. Her dedication and the genuine care she shows for the pets she looks after are exceptional.”
“I cannot say enough about how wonderful Shannon was. She treated my dogs as her own and my girls loved her from the minute we dropped them off. I have never felt more comfortable and relaxed away from my girls! The daily texts and pictures were great! Patti S.”
“Joleen was amazing with my two girls! She was great with communication and sending pictures with updates while I was out of town. They were very well taken care of and got very spoiled by her. When I picked them up they looked so happy and didn’t want to leave since they loved running around her backyard. Joleen was even very kind to wash my dogs bed out of generosity and sent them home with a new toy. Highly recommend using Joleen for when you need your babies watched. 12 out of 10 will be using Joleen for next time I need my dogs watched.”
“Shawn was wonderful! She kept me updated throughout the entire stay. My pups were very comfortable and happy during their stay. I would choose Shawn every time to watch my pups, they had an amazing time! I didn’t have to worry about my dogs once while they were in Shawn’s care!”
“Emily was wonderful with our dog who is normally very anxious with kenneling and in unfamiliar situations. She was very flexible and responsive. I recommend her highly!”
“Wendy was very reassuring while keeping Sammy. I had only had Sammy for 3 weeks when I needed a sitter for a day and a half. I was very nervous to leave him. Wendy kept me updated with photos while keeping Sammy which really helped me. Wendy has a big fenced in back yard which is also very nice for a puppy or grown dog. I was fortunate she had another puppy arrive the second day so my puppy had someone to play with! :-) I would recommend Wendy as a pet sitter if you find your self in need. She has a lot of experience especially with puppies! You can also read the rest of her reviews as I did which brought me to her in the first place!”
“Janet was wonderful! This was the first time I've left our chocolate lab with someone we didn't know. She had a great time at doggie day camp, playing with her dogs, lots of walks, including to the creek, and treats galore! We are grateful to have found someone who will love our girl and take such good care of her while we are gone.”
“Allison was an excellent communicator while coordinating our pup's day care and was absolutely flexible to help us with our out-of-towner schedule, and was wonderfully attentive to our pup during his stay. Great first experience using Rover - I would recommend Allison for anyone looking for a caring dogsitter!!”
“Oh my goodness Taylor D was awesome. We dont like leaving our baby anywhere, she did so great with her. TAYLOR was more than a pet sitter she is a friend that cared about our baby & us..”
“Our first time having Ashley and family board our puppy and we are happy. Our puppy, Luna, was very happy there and got a lot of playing in and slept very well on our way to Northern VA. We will repeat when in town next. She communicates well with us before and during visit. Looking forward to Luna having some more fun at their house.”
“Marah was wonderful, our dogs had such a great time and we got daily evening updates/photos! Marah was great at communicating the boarding service and what we needed to bring which was just their food and drop off with a leash. She had them ready when we arrived, and we could tell they had a great stay! We plan to use Marah for all our upcoming boarding needs.”
“Marketa was very easy to work with and took wonderful care of both of my pups. She kept me updated with a few pictures which was a nice touch. I will be using her again when needed. Thanks again.”
“She was great! Sent us lots of photos! And made sure our pup was happy the whole time!! Her son was also a sweetheart and helped take care as well! Will definitely have our dog stay with them again!”

“Mandy is so fantastic! She is reliable, highly communicative, and diligent in doing everything needed for our pets. She has been flexible with our family when issues have come up that change our plans. She's the best and I'd recommend her to anyone I know!”
About: Cats have always been a huge part of my life—I’ve had my own cat for 8 years who’s truly my best friend, and now I’m also raising a wild little kitten who keeps me on my toes. Because of this, I understand the different needs of both playful, energetic kittens and older cats who need patience and gentleness. I love giving them the attention, care, and affection they deserve so they feel safe and loved while you’re away.
About: I have looked after both dogs and cats for multiple years of friends and family. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personalized care I give to each pet. I treat your pet like family, whether that means sticking closely to their routine, giving them extra cuddles, or understanding their unique quirks and needs. I have experience with a wide range of pets, including dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds. I'm comfortable administering medication and even handling leash reactivity for dogs. Clear communication, reliability, and genuine love for animals are at the core of everything I do. I currently work full-time but will be leaving soon to continue my education in a Masters program! I am available most Wednesdays and weekends as well as majority of evenings during the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are keeping their routine consistent, making them feel safe and loved, and respecting your space as if it were my own. I take the time to learn your pet’s habits, feeding schedule, walk routine if applicable, and favorite toys or activities. Whether it’s playtime, quiet companionship, or a long walk, I adjust to what your pet needs most. I also send regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Cleanliness, clear communication, and attention to detail are part of every visit.

I also have experience caring for large animals such as horses and I have eight years of handling them under my belt. Along with all of this, I also have experience in giving both medications and insulin shots to both felines and canines. I am currently working a full-time job at the Lynchburg Humane Society. I have availability in the mornings, middle of the day, and evenings to care for little critters! This would include walking, potty breaks, and caring for them however they need! I currently have two dogs who have a big double fenced in yard to play in, but would only have your furry friends interact with my animals if there were to be an emergency. I would be able to easily crate your pet and do whatever is needed to keep them safe and comfortable!

About: Life long animal lover and pet parent, who recognizes that our furry friends are our family and deserve the best care and consideration! I've taken care of animals since I was kiddo, and currently share a roof with three cats and one pup. Friends, family, former employers, and my very own animals trust me to watch, walk, feed, water, groom (brushing, bathing, trimming nails) and lavish their cats and dogs with attention. My availability varies, as I work in the Events field, but I am ready and interested to take on regular weekday workday (9-5) walking duties with your pups! As a guest in your home, I will show your space and family the utmost respect. Being invited into your family's space is a privilege.
About: Hi, I'm Hannah! I am reliable, trustworthy, honest, and will treat your pets with the very best of care. I have been petsitting all throughout high school to make a side income, and am now trying to help pay my way through college by housesitting and other odd jobs. For my entire childhood, I took care of my family's farm animals (chickens, cows, horses, cats, and dogs) so I am well versed and comfortable with any type of animal. I have experience with Border Collies, Standard Poodles, and Dachshunds, as well as many other breeds. Please let me know if you have any questions or inquiries! I look forward to the opportunity to meet your pups! I have seasonal work that usually ends mid June and resumes in August. During the summer, I have the most flexibility, due to college courses and assignments to work around. Work (i.e. your pets) is the most important thing to me, so I can definitely account for your schedule and find the system that fits us both the best. My family recently rescued an unruly Bernedoodle puppy, so to prevent any unwanted conflict, I only care for pets in their home during this time. Dogs are usually more comfortable and less stressed in their own surroundings, so until they get used to me, I feel this is best.

About: I have taken care of dogs sense I can remember. Walking and grooming them. Playing with them and just cuddling them. I think of dogs as my all time favorite stress reliever and simply enjoy their company.

Also walking in the evenings most any day after 5 pm.0 and near by lake for walks, also my little 20 lb dog who thinks everyone is his friend.

“We left Sarge with Wendy for three days and he had a blast. He became buddies with one of her other clients and they went for walks together, played in the yard together and played with toys together. Once again he came home exhausted and that is a sure sign that he had a great time.”
About: You can trust your pup with me! My love for dogs and animals started when I was a child and has grown into a deep bond and genuine care for every dog I meet. I truly go above and beyond when it comes to pet care — and in my book, a little spoiling is always included. ;) I’ve had decades of hands-on experience caring for dogs since 2004, from training my first Mini Schnauzer, Ally, as a puppy to providing specialized senior care as she got older. In 2009, my husband and I rescued our first senior Schnauzer, Smokey, and cared for him through several medical issues including seizures, gastroenteritis, and inner ear infections. I’m extremely attentive to a dog’s needs, personality, comfort, and safety, and I always stay alert to make sure they’re happy, secure, and out of trouble. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, and I would care for your dog like one of my own. *Please note: I can only accommodate dogs up to 15 lbs. Requests above this size will be declined. Please do not request bookings for larger dogs. I’m a stay-at-home pet parent, which allows me to give my full attention and care to both my own dog and the pets staying with me. At our home, pets are treated like family and will receive lots of love, attention, supervision, and playtime throughout the day. We have a securely fenced yard for safe outdoor time, potty breaks, and play, but dogs will always be supervised while outside. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, comfort level, routines, and needs to help them feel safe and relaxed while away from home. Whether your pup enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply relaxing in a calm environment, I’m happy to accommodate their routine as closely as possible. I also understand the importance of consistency, patience, and attentiveness, especially for senior dogs or pets with special needs.
“Megan is amazing. She really made Kai feel at home and I felt great about leaving him in her more than capable hands. He is a very sensitive boy and she showed him so much patience.”
“I picked this family to watch Boo for the day while I was in town visiting our daughter for her birthday and am happy I did. Heather and her son did a WONDERFUL job with her! We would definitely recommend them!”
“This is our second time booking Marketa for Cadence's daycare while we were in town for an event. She did a great job with her 2 years ago that I immediately thought to reach out to her again when we returned this year. Marketa is attentive and caring with Cadence and sent us photo updates of how she was doing. She got along well with the other doggos and even cuddled up to her on the couch. I never have any worries about Cadence when she stayed with her, and would recommend Marketa to anyone in the neighborhood. Thank you!”
“Falen was so responsive and very careful to read everything in Makka’s profile and to make sure it was the best match for her it could be. Dani was the person home, and she was so warm and friendly and knows a ton about dogs. Even though my baby had an atypical reactive moment when she first met her puppy playmate, Dani wasn’t phased at all, and coached me on how to proceed. “That’s very normal,” she said, and within 30 seconds - 1 minute, Makkachin realized she had a friend and was her usual friendly, playful self! The had a BLAST running around their expansive backyard with her nee puppy friend, and Dani was very attentive. When I came to pick Makka up, Dani brought her right to the door, leashed up and bag packed. She said Makka did a great job and welcomed us back any time. We’ll definitely use them again soon!”

I am available most Wednesdays and weekends as well as majority of evenings during the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are keeping their routine consistent, making them feel safe and loved, and respecting your space as if it were my own. I take the time to learn your pet’s habits, feeding schedule, walk routine if applicable, and favorite toys or activities. Whether it’s playtime, quiet companionship, or a long walk, I adjust to what your pet needs most. I also send regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Cleanliness, clear communication, and attention to detail are part of every visit.
About: Life long animal lover and pet parent, who recognizes that our furry friends are our family and deserve the best care and consideration! I've taken care of animals since I was kiddo, and currently share a roof with three cats and one pup. Friends, family, former employers, and my very own animals trust me to watch, walk, feed, water, groom (brushing, bathing, trimming nails) and lavish their cats and dogs with attention. My availability varies, as I work in the Events field, but I am ready and interested to take on regular weekday workday (9-5) walking duties with your pups! As a guest in your home, I will show your space and family the utmost respect. Being invited into your family's space is a privilege.
About: I have lots of experience working with a variety of different animals including dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and exotics. I have been assisting a friend for a few years walking dogs and figured it's time to offer my individual services! I will be home majority of the day to take care of any critters under my roof. I currently have no pets of my own to tend to other than some axolotls, so I am completely open to whatever needs an animal has. Inside my own home, I have a very minimalist approach to decor so there isn't much for animals to get injured on or involved with. I can take dogs out to the backyard for potty breaks and playtime and I also live a short walk from a park. Inside your home, I can care for a dog or cat however you instruct.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, I have a cat currently and family members have always had dogs and cats. I volunteered at the Humane Society throughout high school and have lots of experience pet sitting! 😻 I also used to foster kittens which I loved doing. I love being around animals and caring for them. I am a student working part time, so that gives me plenty of free time to check in on your furry friends throughout the day, take them on walks, and spend the night with them! I am a trustworthy person who will respect your space as I would my own and leave it better than I found it. I have my EMT-b certification and am working currently as an RBT, so I have been through several background checks and first aid trainings. Safety and trust are very important to me and if desired I can frequently send you pictures/videos of your pets throughout the day! 🫶
About: I've always had dog(s) in my household since I was a little boy. I've seen them all, hyper dogs, lazy dogs, mean dogs, social dogs, and dogs that think that they're human. In my experience in dealing with all of these personalities I've noticed one trait that is essential in dog-care, patience. Patience is something that I have no shortage of, I've seen it all. Trust me, I've seen the nitty, the gritty, and the nasty...nothing can scare me away. In terms of my tangible experience, I've logged an immense amount of hours volunteering at animal shelters and pet-sitting for various friends and family. I'm a huge advocate for exercise and fitness for pets so if you leave your dog with me, I guarantee that we will be going on runs and playing outside.

About: Hi, I'm Hannah! I am reliable, trustworthy, honest, and will treat your pets with the very best of care. I have been petsitting all throughout high school to make a side income, and am now trying to help pay my way through college by housesitting and other odd jobs. For my entire childhood, I took care of my family's farm animals (chickens, cows, horses, cats, and dogs) so I am well versed and comfortable with any type of animal. I have experience with Border Collies, Standard Poodles, and Dachshunds, as well as many other breeds. Please let me know if you have any questions or inquiries! I look forward to the opportunity to meet your pups! I have seasonal work that usually ends mid June and resumes in August. During the summer, I have the most flexibility, due to college courses and assignments to work around. Work (i.e. your pets) is the most important thing to me, so I can definitely account for your schedule and find the system that fits us both the best. My family recently rescued an unruly Bernedoodle puppy, so to prevent any unwanted conflict, I only care for pets in their home during this time. Dogs are usually more comfortable and less stressed in their own surroundings, so until they get used to me, I feel this is best.
About: I’ve been around a lot of animals in my life and I have worked with dogs to a whole room of reptiles at a camp. I lived along side a parrot most my life and cats as well. I have been pet sitting for a lot of my life for friends, neighbors, and family! I pride myself on my love for animals and my ability to bond with them. I’m happy to do anything asked of me as well to make it easy for the pet owners and easier for the pets. I currently do not have a job because I left teaching to further pursue something I love which would be animals. Besides doing little trips here and there, I will be available most days, especially the mornings and evenings (so morning walks and evening walks for bed time). I can stay over night at houses as well. I am, of course, fine with weekends as well! I am working on making this my career as much as I can. I am trying not to have to go too far from home for dog walking but house sitting and pet sitting I’m fine to go farther especially when staying at the house there. It will cost more though. I am good with crating and good with most size animals. I work with all sizes. I love to interact and love on the animals instead of just going in, feeding and letting them out and that’s it. Unless for some reason your animal doesn’t want loving, I will do what they prefer. I also am always willing to brush your fluffy babies, I can help with that as well! I will only have myself and no other animal with me because I will not bring an animal to my home. I will like to meet and greet just to make sure I and the animal will get along okay.
About: I have experience caring for a variety of animals including dogs, cats, chickens, and turtles. I also have experience with feeding, watering, and bathing animals. In addition to training puppies I have patience and enjoy working with senior animals. I'm available, for any type of care needed, Monday thru Friday from 5am to 10pm and Saturday thru Sunday from 5am to 11pm. I'm also available for overnight sitting. I can walk your pets, I can run around and play with your pets, or even crate them if needed. I can also entertain them.

“I cannot say enough good things about John. My Ozzy is a “anxious “ pup, but with John he is very calm and happy. I love the frequent texts and photos letting me know that Ozzy is settling in well.”
“Jody took wonderful care of our pup! I wholeheartedly recommend her as a sitter. Our puppy had an amazing time on her farm, especially enjoying the chance to play and socialize with the other dogs. Jody made sure he felt loved and well cared for every step of the way. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“I recently had the pleasure of using Aaliyah's dog boarding services (for 5+ days), and I was very pleased with the experience. From the start, Aaliyah was very communicative, typically sending updates at the end of the day. These updates included not just adorable photos, but also detailed text messages that gave me peace of mind knowing my precious fur baby was well taken care of. Aaliyah's home is clean, welcoming, and a great environment for dogs/pets. This is extremely important to me because my pupper has a tendency to get into things he isn't supposed to if he has the opportunity. Her own dogs are a delight—fun and friendly, making for great companions for our pup. Her family is equally warm and engaging, adding to the overall positive atmosphere. I felt at ease knowing my dog was in such a loving and attentive environment. If you're looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, I highly recommend Aaliyah. Her dedication and the genuine care she shows for the pets she looks after are exceptional.”
“I cannot say enough about how wonderful Shannon was. She treated my dogs as her own and my girls loved her from the minute we dropped them off. I have never felt more comfortable and relaxed away from my girls! The daily texts and pictures were great! Patti S.”
“Joleen was amazing with my two girls! She was great with communication and sending pictures with updates while I was out of town. They were very well taken care of and got very spoiled by her. When I picked them up they looked so happy and didn’t want to leave since they loved running around her backyard. Joleen was even very kind to wash my dogs bed out of generosity and sent them home with a new toy. Highly recommend using Joleen for when you need your babies watched. 12 out of 10 will be using Joleen for next time I need my dogs watched.”
“Emily was wonderful with our dog who is normally very anxious with kenneling and in unfamiliar situations. She was very flexible and responsive. I recommend her highly!”
“Janet was wonderful! This was the first time I've left our chocolate lab with someone we didn't know. She had a great time at doggie day camp, playing with her dogs, lots of walks, including to the creek, and treats galore! We are grateful to have found someone who will love our girl and take such good care of her while we are gone.”
“Allison was an excellent communicator while coordinating our pup's day care and was absolutely flexible to help us with our out-of-towner schedule, and was wonderfully attentive to our pup during his stay. Great first experience using Rover - I would recommend Allison for anyone looking for a caring dogsitter!!”
“Oh my goodness Taylor D was awesome. We dont like leaving our baby anywhere, she did so great with her. TAYLOR was more than a pet sitter she is a friend that cared about our baby & us..”
“Our first time having Ashley and family board our puppy and we are happy. Our puppy, Luna, was very happy there and got a lot of playing in and slept very well on our way to Northern VA. We will repeat when in town next. She communicates well with us before and during visit. Looking forward to Luna having some more fun at their house.”
“Marah was wonderful, our dogs had such a great time and we got daily evening updates/photos! Marah was great at communicating the boarding service and what we needed to bring which was just their food and drop off with a leash. She had them ready when we arrived, and we could tell they had a great stay! We plan to use Marah for all our upcoming boarding needs.”
“Marketa was very easy to work with and took wonderful care of both of my pups. She kept me updated with a few pictures which was a nice touch. I will be using her again when needed. Thanks again.”
About: I'm an active volunteer with a local animal shelter, where I work hands-on with dogs of many ages, sizes, temperaments, I have experience caring for shy, anxious, high-energy, and sensitive dogs, and I'm comfortable with reading canine body language, building trust, and providing calm, reliable care tailored to each dog's needs. Pet care is part of my regular routine through weekend availability when I'm off work. I plan my schedule around providing attentive, consistent care, including walks, feeding, enrichment and companionship, so each dog receives focused, unhurried attention. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and preferred activities. I take time to build trust, especially with shy or anxious pets, by moving at their pace and reading their body language. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and calm, attentive interaction, whether that means exercise and playtime or quiet companionship. In a client's home, I respect their space and ensure pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment.
