“Kathryn was great with our 7 month old cavalier mix. You can tell she loves what she does & I immediately felt safe leaving her. I highly recommend her & will be using her going forward for any overnight stays in the future!”
“Joe was absolutely INCREDIBLE with our boy Lucas! He had the best weekend! He even got his nails trimmed for him! He took Luke to the dog park to play multiple times and Lilibet was the BEST pal to Luke all weekend. They played, laid with each other and just had the best time. We can’t recommend Joe and Lilibet enough! Book now!”
“Sean and Alyssa always take the best care of Banjo! They send me pictures and videos throughout his stay, and I can tell that he has so much fun with them. They take him on walks everyday, to the dog park to play, and they even make treats for him. When I pick him up he is happy and content, and I know that he’s had a great stay. You can tell they are so intentional with the care they provide, I highly reccomend Sean and Alyssa when you need someone safe and reliable to watch your pup!!”
“Deb and Ralph are amazing! They welcomed my boys with open arms and spent quality time with them. This was the first time my boys were away from home while I was away and it looked like they had a great time.”
“Brandy always takes good care of our doggie and sends lots of pictures while we're away. He's always happy when we get to her house so she's doing something right! 😁 She is quick to respond to questions and very flexible with drop off and pick up. Great sitter!”
“Stacey is so sweet and took wonderful care of our girl. This was the first time we had to leave her with someone she didn't know very well. Stacey kept me informed of how she was doing and gave her lots of TLC. Definitely will book with her again. ❤”
“Beth was fantastic. We had never left our girl for so long but she made it super easy…sending pics and updates on a regular basis. We will definitely be using Beth again!!”
“Danielle and her crew were great! She was very responsive to my messages and was able to watch my doggo on very short notice. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in her care. If you're ever in Harrisonburg, choose her!”
“Jani and Paul took amazing care of Kona! We hate to leave her, however I could tell she was being totally spoiled with love from the daily photos and updates. Kona is quite active, so they took her on daily walks and played ball with her in their yard. Kona enjoyed watching the squirrels in their backyard and was made to feel totally at home. I would not hesitate to recommend Jani and we already have another visit booked for Kona.”
“Kahlua seemed to have a fun time with Kara and her family. She got to play in the yard and come in during the hot day. She sent pictures and video updates whoch I always appreciate. I will be reaching out next time I need a sitter😊”
“Sophia was excellent!! Starting with the meet and greet, she was an absolute pleasure to work with! She sent detailed and regular updates, including letting us know about anything out of the ordinary. She administered medications as needed and was very understanding of my dog’s anxiety. I can tell my dog was very happy, loved, and well cared for while I was away! I would absolutely use Sophia’s services again!”
“Brianne was amazing with my pup, Baci. She was quick to communicate, so kind, very flexible, and I picked up a happy dog. I highly recommend Brianne. This is one of my first dog sitting experiences and I’ll definitely be reaching out to her in the future!”
“Jenesis was outstanding. We were in a panicked situation and she was very responsive to help. She was very kind and comforting to Chip during his stay and sent video and photos of him throughout his stay. She was wonderful about staying in touch with us anc keeping us updated on his walks and meals and how he was doing in general. I would recommend Jenesis to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets and we will use Jenesis again next time we are in town.”
“I'm so glad Hazzar was able to take care of my puppy! I had a last-minute booking before my trip, and she was a lifesaver. I have no doubt my dog enjoyed her stay. Hazzar has two dogs, and I'm sure they made great company for her.She also sent frequent updates and the cutest photos, which made me feel less anxious as a first time dog parent and the first time I'd ever left my puppy behind.”
“Zander was great. He went over and above for our rather difficult chihuahua mix, Susie, who reacts negatively to air pressure changes due to rain and thunderstorms. I recommend him for any dog.”
About: I have cared for many pets of friends and family members over the years. Sadly, I had to put my own dog down this fall (13yo Boxer named Neeco) and am looking to get my pup fix through volunteering at the SPCA and pet-sitting/walking, as I am not quite ready to take on another dog just yet. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages, but I especially love senior doggos. I currently work part-time as an RN and make my own schedule, so am very flexible in that regard. Available for boarding most weekends Friday-Monday. My yard is unfenced but on a very private road with low traffic. Lots of trails and streams to explore if that is something your fur baby would enjoy! If not, we have a large deck and screened in porch for outdoor lounging, and big comfy couch by the fireplace for them to relax.
“Hillary was very communicative, flexible, and friendly. She was very attentive to our feeding/medicine instructions and communicated with me about what would be best. She did so much to help our dog, Marty, settle in. Marty came home happy and exhausted.”
“We were nervous leaving our 6-month-old puppy for the first time, but Cory made it a wonderful experience for us and our pup. Cory was easy to communicate with; he provided lots of photos and updates when we were gone and Riley seemed very happy and content when we went to pick her up. We would definitely like to have Cory watch Riley again.”

“Cate was great! She came by to meet Callie and I, and she took great care of her. Callie did not seem at all upset that I was gone. And she even washed the sheets from the bed — which I did not expect her to do! This was my first time using Rover/Cate and I will definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve had six amazing dogs in my life, and before leaving for college, I cared for four all on my own—they were truly my pride and joy. Dogs have always been a huge part of my world, and even the shy or scared ones seem to find comfort with me. I once wanted to be a vet because of how much I love animals, but I realized I couldn’t handle seeing dogs in pain. That love now drives my passion for pet care. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just some quality snuggles, I give every dog the same love and attention I’d give my own. I’m currently in college which only takes up some of my days, so I have plenty of free time during the day to care for your pups. My flexible schedule allows me to give them the attention, walks, and playtime they need to stay happy and loved while you’re away. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, loving environment where dogs feel secure and cared for, whether they’re full of energy or a little shy. I always follow any instructions you provide closely and keep a close eye on your pup to ensure they’re happy, healthy, and stress-free. I treat every dog like my own, with lots of love, patience, and respect for their unique personality and needs. You can trust that your pup is in safe, caring hands with me.
“Jennifer was lovely! She house sat for our three cats, which includes two rambunctious kittens. She followed instructions and provided updates, and left our house in great condition.”
“Natalie took great care of my kitties while I was gone, including giving medication to one. I got pictures after each of her visits, which was nice. Everything, and everyone, was in good shape when I got home. It's nice to know there's someone I can trust to take care of them when I'm gone.”
“Abigail did a fantastic job taking care of our two cats. She followed all our directions and adapted to one of our cats not wanting to come out to eat. She spent time getting to know them and played with Lavender, who doesn’t always want to play. I highly recommend her to care for your animals, she will do a great job!”
“Estefani is the best! She was soooo sweet with my senior kitty. She is a great communicator and sent lovely updates each day. I felt so much better knowing she was looking after my cat. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Claire, during her brief visits with Fiona and Oreo, became a part of the family. The cats have been texting me all day. “Where’s Claire?! We want to see her!!!” Who knew cats could text? But they are and they should. She was amazing. Well done, Claire…and, thank you.”
About: My neighbors were interested in adopting a cat, but they wanted to confirm with me I would be able to cat sit regularly, leading to the possibility for their cats adoption! I have been cat sitting regularly for my neighbors since the adoption of their cat.
“Yanya did a great job caring for and playing with Maggie Mae. She was very patient and caring. When she noticed that Maggie had an injury she called me immediately and waited for instructions.”
“Sarah was great! I have very specific daily care requests for our two cats, Sarah followed my instructions and they were happy kitties when we arrived home from our trip. Thanks Sarah!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments since I was around 10 years old. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and play with their pets. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable following specific routines, administering basic care, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and relaxed while their owners are away. I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting during weekdays (especially afternoons and evenings) and weekends. I love spending quality time playing, exercising, and keeping pets company so they never feel lonely. I prioritize safety and comfort at all times. I carefully follow feeding, medication, and walking instructions, and I always keep pets supervised. I communicate regularly with updates and photos so owners feel confident and at ease while they’re away.
“Abigail was super great with our two dogs! They are both high energy and can be a lot at times. She was very patient and took excellent care of them, going above and beyond to make sure they had what they needed while we were away.”
About: I spent a lot of time with pets( mostly dogs) from taking care of close friends pets. With dogs I found better ways to behave them when they were with me, and considering I would take care of them a lot I managed to teach them tricks. I love spending time with animals of any kind. I had a cat when I was 13 and it was tricky because I got Lenny as an adult I would say. I learned how to manage litter boxes and the right food for both cat and dog. I do a lot of research when it comes to food so I know they have the right nutritions and I’m also skeptical when if comes or bagged food, so I do make my Own at times. I own 2 dogs now, one is a puppy and the other about a year and a half old. I’m also trying to save to go into MTC to study as a veterinarian to spend more time with animals. Taking care of pets fits in just perfectly. I currently have a part time job, but doing pet care on the side definitely helps balance my routine out and get some fresh air from working. In both client/my home, since I’m an early bird, I take them on walks to get them moving and give them time to potty, as I do with my dogs as well. I give them water and food, of course this varies on any directions given by the owner. They do get a lot of playtime and treats for good behavior. I make sure to let them potty at least every 2-3 hours out of habit from my pets.

“We truly appreciate Brandy! We booked very last minute with brandy. Being on vacation we brought our epileptic pup and he wasn’t coping well in a new place being alone. So we downloaded this app for the first time and booked with her while we went out. She responded when I checked on him, and sent me pictures of him while he was with her. We are even booked an extra day with her while we were here because he did so well in her care! Thank you Brandy !!”
“So happy with this host! Dogs have fun with other dogs. Comfy nap time and even a walk!!! Love the pictures!!! Could not be happier . I used to feel so guilty dropping them off at pet day cares but since I found this rover host I feel not guilt! .”
About: I have been surrounded by dogs since birth and wouldn't have it any other way. I'm happy to care for your dog's general wellbeing, as well as to spoil them in your absence! I am a work-from-home High School teacher, so I am available 24/7 to spoil your dog! We have an invisible fence, but I'll leash your dog for backyard adventures. We love hiking and neighborhood walks, which I can schedule for your pet, per your preferences. I have 2 dogs, who can be separated from yours, as needed. I have .5 acres, surrounded by an invisible fence. Leashes are used on all walks and a doggie seat belt will be used in the event that we need to travel by car.
“Madison took great care of my skittish fearful rescue beagle! Her dog was also great company for mine. I’m so happy to have found a great sitter. We’ll be booking again with Madison soon!”
About: I kind of fell into the dog sitting fun. My mom used to “sit” with every kind of being from baby to dog before it became a popular hustle. Growing up I’ve always helped and learned from her how to care for other’s family members as one’s own. In my spare time, I love to hike and I walk everyday. I'd love to have your companion as a sidekick on these adventures. Or even just enjoy a leisurely walk. Coming into one’s home is an act of trust and a privilege. This is not lost on me. I have every intention of respecting the needs and privacy of my clients.
About: Just the 2 of us. Our sweet boy crossed over the rainbow bridge, and while we’re not quite ready to get another dog, we love making new paw friends! We both work from home, and have opposite schedules when leaving the house, so one of us is normally home! It’s a perfect set up for your pups ‘home away from home.’ We take at least 2 walks a day, plus dog parks and car rides! Dogs are free to roam around the house and fenced in yard.
“Came from out of town for a wedding and found out last minute that our dog could not attend. Cory responded immediately to our last minute request for doggy day care. If not for Cory we would have missed the wedding. He was very friendly and took wonderful care of our Harley, who is very high energy. Cory put my nerves at ease with updates and pics throughout the day. I highly recommend Cory for your pet care needs. Thank you again Cory!”
About: Lifelong dog owner with decades of experience caring for dogs both big and small. I work from home and am able to provide maximum companionship and plenty of exercise. Boarders or daycare get 2-3 walks/day, dozens of photos, and lots of love of course! I provide toys, bowls, a dog bed, treats, poop bags and a backup leash. A tired dog is a good dog :) feel free to bring your pet’s crate if you’d like! I grew up with border collies and labs, then rescued my own dogs in adulthood. One of my rescues was a very sick 3-month old puppy that I raised, so I am well-versed with puppy care. I do not currently have pets living in the home, so your dogs will have the run of the place! I own my own home on a quiet circle street. My yard is an expansive quarter acre of grass with access to miles of mowed walking paths off my backyard. When a visit starts, I like to take the dogs on a “Welcome Walk” to get acquainted in neutral outdoor space. I prioritize safety and clear communication (with owners and dogs!) to create a comfortable experience for all. I look forward to taking care of your wonderful pets! I work from home, so I am flexible for drop-ins, last-minute needs, or regular walks, and can give your dog consistent companionship…and some fun of course! Rain or shine, I am happy to take them out. I provide a treats (if allowed), a dog bed, bowls, toys and backup leash (but I prefer you bring the leash your dog is familiar with!). Please feel free to bring a crate if you’d like to crate your dog! When a visit starts, I like to take the dogs on “Welcome Walk” where we get acquainted in the great outdoors. This allows me to build our bond in neutral space with plenty of positive stimulation for the dogs. I prioritize safety and clear communication (with owners and dogs!) to create a comfortable experience for all. I have used the clicker training method in the past, and do not believe in any form of domineering or physical correction. Your dog will have a stable experience here!
“Kendyl is great and we really appreciate how well she takes care of Rosie. She watched her for a few hours on short notice. Rosie has separation issues but Kendyl always manages to calm her down and make her feel at home. Thanks again, Kendyl!”
“Jenesis was amazing! She made sure to take extra care of my pup and make her feel at ease while I was away. She was flexible with my late evening pick up time and even watched my dog longer than I had originally asked/needed her to. Please book with her if you need a sitter!!”

“Diane was so wonderful with my doggos! I was so nervous since it was my first time leaving them with a sitter but she made me feel so at ease. The pictures I got were of them smiling and having a blast ❤️ I’m sure they’re ready for their next walk with her.”
“Natalie was a natural walking with my pup, Rosie. She asked meaningful questions about her care (as we are planning on rebooking for house sitting) and was warm and loving toward my dog, giving her praise, treats, and smiles. Rosie was so pleased with our walk, that she started following Natalie to her car as if she was sad to see her go! We will be booking with Natalie again and are very confident in her professionalism and communication. Thanks, Natalie!”

“Jenesis was outstanding. We were in a panicked situation and she was very responsive to help. She was very kind and comforting to Chip during his stay and sent video and photos of him throughout his stay. She was wonderful about staying in touch with us anc keeping us updated on his walks and meals and how he was doing in general. I would recommend Jenesis to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets and we will use Jenesis again next time we are in town.”
About: I have cared for many pets of friends and family members over the years. Sadly, I had to put my own dog down this fall (13yo Boxer named Neeco) and am looking to get my pup fix through volunteering at the SPCA and pet-sitting/walking, as I am not quite ready to take on another dog just yet. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages, but I especially love senior doggos. I currently work part-time as an RN and make my own schedule, so am very flexible in that regard. Available for boarding most weekends Friday-Monday. My yard is unfenced but on a very private road with low traffic. Lots of trails and streams to explore if that is something your fur baby would enjoy! If not, we have a large deck and screened in porch for outdoor lounging, and big comfy couch by the fireplace for them to relax.
“Hillary was very communicative, flexible, and friendly. She was very attentive to our feeding/medicine instructions and communicated with me about what would be best. She did so much to help our dog, Marty, settle in. Marty came home happy and exhausted.”
“We were nervous leaving our 6-month-old puppy for the first time, but Cory made it a wonderful experience for us and our pup. Cory was easy to communicate with; he provided lots of photos and updates when we were gone and Riley seemed very happy and content when we went to pick her up. We would definitely like to have Cory watch Riley again.”
“Erin took such great care of Honey. Friendly family. Accepting and fun furries of her own that might just turn into best 4-legged friends. We will definitely be repeat customers. Thank you Erin!”
“Miss Valley had an amazing time with Diane and her family. She enjoyed nice walks with her kids and seemed as though she really enjoyed her time with Diane. Diane communicated daily on how she was doing and sent photos as well. I will definitely be rebooking with Diane again!”
“Wrigley had a great experience with Kendyl and her family. As a dog that is best to not be around other dogs, Wrigley thrived at Kendyl's while I was gone for a week. Would definitely use her again!”
