“Phillip was an excellent host for my dogs. After previous arrangements fell through at the last minute, Phillip was happy to step up and board them. He stayed in communication with me and sent multiple pics and videos of my furry kids having fun. They looked like they were having so much fun, I wasn’t sure they would want to leave! I would highly recommend Phillip to anybody looking to board their dogs. They will be well cared for while you’re away.”

“Tiffany, David and their kids were amazing! I needed a last minute cat daycare option and they were incredibly sweet to say yes for a 6 a.m. drop off the next morning.

About: I’ve always loved cats and enjoy caring for their unique personalities and routines! I’m comfortable with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving plenty of love and attention while you’re away. If your cat prefers quiet companionship or loves to play, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. As a teacher, I’m responsible, dependable, and attentive to details. I know how important routines are, and I’ll make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Steven was great on his first job for us. His patience with Cody was just what we had hoped for. Especially loved the photos and reports. We’ve already booked with him for next month and have no worries about Cody care!”
“Exceptional Pet Sitter! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amanda was absolutely wonderful! From the very beginning, she was incredibly sweet, helpful, and highly responsive. Her communication was perfect throughout the entire stay—she kept me constantly updated, asked great questions to ensure Winnie had everything she needed, and went above and beyond by asking if there was anything else she could help with around the house. The photos she sent on a regular basis brought so much peace of mind. It’s clear she truly cares about the animals she watches. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and I will absolutely be booking with her again. Thank you, Amanda! Highly recommended!”
“Holli once again, was superb and did a fantastic job with our boys. They are clearly, comfortable with her and she with them. Thank you Holli. Jules and Vincent give you 5 paws, as do we!”
About: I would always watch over my friends cat with her. He was super calm and easy to care for along with the fact that he’d always be around me and comfortable. I’m usually calmer with cats.

“Yeny was kind enough to do a list minute Day Care for us on our Anniversary. Easy drop off and pick up. She was walking her as we arrived to pick up and passed them..! She seemed happy and exercised. The whole family seems to participate in the care of the animals. Yeny took the time to hand feed her a bit at her first dinner away from home to get her started. She took to the time to talk about her day with our pup before we left. It seems to be a caring environment. We will definitely use her again.”

“Our high-energy rescue has been doing great with him and coming home well worn out after doggy daycare. He’s kind enough to accommodate early work hours or a change of plans. Very satisfied! We’ll be booking weekly for daycare.”
About: Aside from having pets since childhood, including farm animals, I also have professional experience. I started working at a kennel at age 22 with tasks such as bathing, walking, training and playtime supervision. I was in charge of 15 dogs at a time. I then moved on to vet care for 3 years learning animal health and behavior. I work from home and very available for pets needs and provide individual care as needed. I have a great understanding of pet behavior and react accordingly. My dogs get let out at least 4 times daily.All dogs in my home can free roam and only caged if requested by owner either nightly or while I'm out. The privacy fenced in yard provides a safe place to play.
About: Hey! I’m Kaitlynn, I have 7 years of experience with animals. I was on rover a few years ago for 5-6 years and took a break after I had kids. I have worked with a travel vet for 2 years (before kids) and dog grooming! My love for animals hasn’t changed, I’m recently new to Rover again because I love working with animals and would love to start to get out there again. I give updates often and will have plenty of photos to share with you! My dogs are super friendly to all animals as they lived on a farm before. I’m hoping to help families while providing for mine:) Pet care fits naturally into my daily life because I own my own business and work for myself, which gives me the flexibility to prioritize animals throughout the day. I can easily build my schedule around feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins without rushing or being tied to a strict 9–5 job. Caring for pets blends perfectly with my active, hands-on lifestyle, and I genuinely enjoy having animals as part of my routine while I manage my business responsibilities. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment where they can relax and feel comfortable. I make sure they get plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and any feeding or medication schedules are followed closely. I also have two friendly dogs of my own who are very social and do well with other animals, which can be great for pets that enjoy companionship. In a client’s home, I follow their routine exactly to help pets feel secure in their familiar environment. I respect their space, keep everything clean and consistent, and make sure pets receive the same level of care, love, and attention they would get from their owner.
“Ligia did a good job caring for my two dogs in their doggie day care stay. Does a good job of slowly introducing new dogs to each other and respecting if certain dogs don't want to play with others. Her house and yard are set up in a way that allows her to separate animals, if needed. She communicated well with me and was available at the agreed upon times. We will be booking with her again in the future.”
“Svetlana took great care of our 2 dogs on a last minute notice for the day. She is so kind, and good with the dogs. Her house is clean and tidy (1 of my dogs likes to chew everything), and she has a nice large fenced in yard for the dogs to run around in. I highly recommend her, and will definitely book with her again. Thank you so much!!”
“My husband and I were in the area visiting and wanted to spend the day in DC. Stephanie and her family watched our two dogs for the day. She sent us lots of pictures and updates during the day! When we are back in the area we will use her again!”
“Christie brought a sense of calmness towards our Joji as soon as we arrived. She is very sweet, friendly, and flexible - it was a plus that she was able to work with our hours, we’ll definitely book her again :)”
About: Hi there! I’m a caring and reliable dog sitter who truly enjoys getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I have experience with all kinds of dogs, including those who are shy or anxious, and I always take a calm, patient approach so they can feel safe and comfortable at their own pace. With anxious dogs especially, I focus on creating a gentle, low-pressure environment by slow introductions, calm energy, and routines that help build trust over time. I pay close attention to body language and adjust to whatever each dog needs in the moment, whether that’s space, reassurance, or a quiet walk. I also make sure to follow all care instructions closely and keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pup is doing. My goal is to be someone you and your dog feel completely comfortable with, like a trusted friend who shows up and cares every time. All dogs need to be current on their vaccinations (including bordatella) and flea/tick preventative. Please provide a screenshot of their most recent shots through the Rover app. I currently do NOT take more than 1 pup at a time unless the client requesting themselves has 2 pups that need taking care of! PLEASE NOTE: If you plan on booking for extended stay, our price is $40 a night for 5 days. I'm currently not employed so your pet will be attended to at all day! Any accommodation you need for them, I can surely provide at any time. I have a fenced yard and currently no other pets in the house, meaning your pet will have 100% of our time and attention so they don't feel out of place!
“I was so happy to find this sitter! We just adopted a rescue dog. He has a lot of anxiety. He needs special care while he is adjusting to his new home. Because of his anxiety he needs a low stimulation environment. She has been so good working with my dogs special needs! I can’t say enough good about her!! We are so grateful for the care she has given our dog!!”
About: I have always had a dog for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs and I love them. We currently have two dogs. I have a male Golden doodle named Bo and a female Teddy Bear named Annie. I like to walk the dogs for two 30 minute walks a day. I’m a stay at home, homeschooling mom. I have a 7 year old, 10 year old, 13 year old and 16 year old at home. Everyone loves dogs. We have a routine with the dogs and they are part of the family. I don’t have a fenced in yard but I am a firm believer that dogs need to be walked. I walk my dogs for 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes in the afternoon on a walking path behind my house. I keep jingle bells on my door and my dogs ring them to go outside to potty. I have options to separate dogs if necessary. Dogs are separated at feeding time.
About: No special skills just a lot of love and care for fur babies. I've taken care of family dogs and neighbors' dogs in the community as well. Im available for boarding during the week and weekends. I have my own dog and my kids love having new fur friends around to play. My house is not fenced in but I do have a big yard, I have a crate if needed and a lot of space in y home.
“She was great! She was very understanding and helpful since Izzy is young and was not on her best behavior. She took her on walks and feed her lunch. Larissa was very attentive. I’ll definitely use her again if she’ll have us.”

“Jessica was amazing! She walked my two dogs, a high strung chihuahua and elderly dog (14 y.o.), for 30min for 4 days. She reached out and asked if I wanted her to meet the dogs before walking them which was great. The chihuahua tends to bark his head off at strangers, and I wasn't sure how he'd react (he ended up running away from her the first day for 15min, sorry Jessica). The older dog had diarrhea throughout the house one day, and cleaning up after something like that isn't really what I consider her job. I told her she didn't need to worry about it, and I'd deal with it when I got back. However, she ended up cleaning up as much as she could anyways (that's going to be a big tip). Besides my dogs being a huge pain. She always responded quickly and sent a lot of pictures from the walks.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs for 10 years, whether mine or those belonging to family. I have trained puppies as well as taken care of my dogs that have reached their golden years, and helped them over the rainbow bridge. My top two priorities are communication and safety. Any need you have regarding your pet is of utmost importance because pets aren’t just animals - they’re family! I have two dogs at home, one is 1 1/2 years old and the other is nearly 4. We walk 3 times daily, as well as plenty of enrichment time inside. Enrichment depends on the day, it can be playing with toys, eating treats from snuffle mats, lick mats, or just running around with them until they’re as tired as I am! Safety is my biggest priority. I follow instructions very carefully, I keep a close eye on your fur babies both in the house and outside. I can send real time updates that way you know exactly what is going on at all times, and I will always make sure to ask questions when needed. I can recreate your pets routine as closely as possible, and I will always bring positive energy!
“I truly appreciate the excellent service I received. She was very attentive and made me feel like she genuinely cared about my dog. I especially appreciate her accepting my request last minute and still providing such great service. I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to my friends.”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for both dogs and cats with different personalities and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, administering basic medications if needed, and making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. As a teacher, I’m responsible, dependable, and attentive to routines and details. I know how important consistency is, and I bring that same level of care to every pet I look after. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, or just relax and cuddle, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I know leaving your pet with someone else takes trust, and I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing reliable, loving care and keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay or visit. I’m currently on summer break, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I’m happy to work with your schedule and provide reliable, attentive care for your pet. During the school year, my availability is typically in the mornings, evenings, weekends, and school breaks. I’ll always communicate my schedule clearly and do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will treat your pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I’m attentive to routines, follow any instructions you provide, and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident while you’re away.
“Bethany was fantastic! My dog has a rare auto immune disease and she took in all of the information and kept him safe each time she walked him. Ryder can’t wait to see her again!”
About: I’ve had experiences not only taking care of my own animals but also watching my friends and families pets. I’m able to walk for however long a pet needs and I’m able to remember when a pet needs to be taken out or fed. I’m also able to adapt easily if the pet has any conditions or disabilities that I need to accommodate to. I’m always available at any time whether it’s mornings or nights. I may have trips but whenever I’m home, I’m always looking for something to do. I always make sure they’re comfortable with me before petting then it playing, considering I never want to force anything. I make sure to feed them on time and take then out whenever it is needed. I also love walking my own dogs all the time.
About: I have extensive experience with a variety of dog breeds, young and mature. I am thrilled to care for the smallest and the largest animals. I have flexible hours and am willing to meet your and your pet's needs. I am also available to support your short or pop-up requests. In your home, I will provide attentive care to ensure your pet or pets are happy, healthy, and secure. I will send videos, and I am available if you want to FaceTime with your pet.
About: I’ve taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I work full time at a grooming salon as a pet bather. And I have experience working at an animal hospital and a pet sitting company. I’m able to watch any sized dog and any age from puppies to seniors. I also offer simple grooming services! I regularly take multiple dogs on hikes for at least 1 hour and am used to watching large groups of dogs at a time I’m currently working full time, 5 days a week. I am free all day Tuesday, and Sunday. But I’m also free after 4pm any other day . I can pet sit overnight any day and do drop in visits in the morning, evening, and at night. I am unable to board dogs at my own home but at a clients home I can take your dogs for both short and long walks. I can even take them to a park for a nature hike. I will feed them at their scheduled times and if wanted by owners I can crate them. If medication is needed I am comfortable with giving it to them. I will give them plenty of love and lots of playtime. If wanted I can also give nail trims, brushing, ear cleaning and baths as I work full time as a pet bather.
About: Hi, I’m Katie! Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I bring years of hands on experience with dogs, cats, horses and even smaller pets like rabbits and turtles. I specialize in creating a calm and comforting environment, whether I’m working with energetic puppies or gentle senior pets who need a little extra TLC. I’m confident handling leash training, giving medication, and reading pet behavior to ensure they always feel safe and cared for. I treat every animal like family, because at the end of the day.. they are! I am currently only working part time nearby to my home so I am ready and available as soon as I’m off work. I have one dog of my own that i prioritize, so I don’t find it difficult doing the same for others. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, safety and trust are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space that’s free of hazards and full of cozy spots to rest and play. I follow your routine closely, from feeding times to favorite walks, and I keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy and well cared for. I approach each visit with mindfulness and respect. because your pet deserves nothing less.

About: I bring a calm, reliable approach to pet care along with a dog training certification earned in 2022. As a cat owner of three with experience caring for dogs, I understand animal behavior, basic training, and how to make pets feel safe and comfortable in new situations. I’m currently a college student at JMU. During the summer, I have more time to dedicate to pet care. However, for now, I can return for the weekends to take care of any pets that need attention. I give pets lots of attention and quality playtime while maintaining their regular routines. I ensure they’re well fed, active, and mentally stimulated through interactive play, exercise, and companionship, creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel happy, relaxed, and cared for.
About: I have cared for pets of friends, family, and neighbors since I was in middle school, and enjoy being with animals of all shapes and sizes. I’m a fast learner and will care for your home and animals as if they were my own. I can handle long walks, cleaning up accidents, following special feeding instructions, play time, and even just hanging out on the couch with your pet. If your pet has special medical needs, please message me about details and I will let you know if I can help! In addition to my time spent caring for dogs and cats, I also have experience in house sitting, plant care, and exotic animal needs. Just send me a message and I am happy to help with whatever I can! I’ve recently graduated from JMU, and am searching for the right direction to take my career into. For now, I have dedicated the majority of my time to caring for animals. I have a lot of availability and flexible hours right now! I am happy to go to your house, where your pet is more at home, but also can keep pets at my place during the day, if needed!
About: We provide care in our home and treat your babies like our own. We walk them multiple times a day, love on them, take them on field trips when possible, we spoil them rotten. We can help with crate training, potty training, house Manners etc. We have experience with Senior dogs ( most recent passed this December 2024 at 15 years old). I have had diabetic pets so am willing to administer meds as required. I have volunteered with a local rescue for 4 years now and have fostered for that long as well and have experience dealing with many difficult behaviors like resource guarding, counter surfing and more. Here at Bark n Kuddles we are a husband and Wife team so our dogs are very rarely alone. I teach high school so during the school day my husband takes the pups on walks, and outings and provides play time and snuggle time. When I am home we share the responsibilities and our kids are trained so they love on your babies too but they know boundaries and are very good at being mini pack leaders. The only time your pet would be alone is if we had to go somewhere as a family where dogs could not come but we have two pups of our own to keep them company but again that is rare that someone is not home. We only take one or two clients at a time as we have a small home but we take the dogs out on walks (Distance depends on the dogs need but could be 2 to 3 miles easily) and I have access to a big fenced in yard that my family owns should dogs need off leash time and play time (under our watch at all times of course). We do crate dogs when home alone for their safety and to protect the house but they get yummy kongs with frozen treats and other treats as long as owner is ok with it. We love on them how the pups want to be loved on. If they want to lay next to us we let them. If they prefer to just chill off to the side that's all good too. We also follow all owners instructions whether in our home or yours and give your baby the attention they need to keep them happy and safe while you are gone.
“Stephanie is a life-saver. She handled a dog with a sick stomach with grace, professionalism, clear communication and humor. I cannot be more grateful for her work and her care!”
About: I’ve always had pets my whole life of all different kinds. I’m patient and playful with animals. I have cared for mostly seniors and puppies. I currently sit a senior Boxer with arthritis so I have experience with administering meds and providing comfort. I’m working with only one family with three dogs right now, so my availability is pretty open! I also do well with a lot of pets, as I live on a small homestead. I do best in a client’s home as I believe it makes the pet the most comfortable. I also have too many animals in my personal home to feel comfortable allowing my animals to interact with other pets. My pig isn’t the biggest fan of dogs these days. I prefer a backyard when possible so I have space to play with your buddy, but I also love a long walk. Whatever is most convenient and comfortable, I can work with just about anything.

“The experience with Sonja and Phil was absolutely amazing. They Communicate well and quickly! Enzo was loved on like their own. They even ordered and installed a broken buckle on his collar while we were gone! We will definitely be using them many times in the future 🙂”
“What an amazing experience! The communication and coordination for drop off/during boarding/pick up was all incredible. They were super flexible in my schedule and very responsive. They even made sure to keep me updated on Lucy during her stay with pictures. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my baby girl and would rebook all over again! She came back a happy pup 🥰”
“It was my first time booking with Heather and we had an amazing experience! My dog Stella looked very happy in all the photos I was sent. She kept me updated and made me feel like Stella was in good hands. Will definitely be a returning customer”
“Connie took great care of our two girls Sunny & Birdie for the day! She sent photos of them having a great time w/her and her dogs outside. It was such a success we’re leaving our girls with her while we go on vacation! They’re my babies and I don’t trust them with just anyone! Thank you Connie!”
“Phillip was an excellent host for my dogs. After previous arrangements fell through at the last minute, Phillip was happy to step up and board them. He stayed in communication with me and sent multiple pics and videos of my furry kids having fun. They looked like they were having so much fun, I wasn’t sure they would want to leave! I would highly recommend Phillip to anybody looking to board their dogs. They will be well cared for while you’re away.”

She was super friendly, asked all the important questions and you can tell in the way she interacts with your pet, that she really cares for animals!
