“Awesome sitter! Felt nervous trying Rover for the first time and he David 100% made me feel good about leaving my dog in his car. My dog felt so comfortable and happy at his house!!”

“Brandy was fantastic! We left our large 3 year old dog for a week and a half to go on our honeymoon. We were nervous because it’s our first time away from him - especially since he came from a shelter. Brandy truely loves dogs & she made us feel super comfortable. She provided updates & pics/videos daily which not only made us smile but put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our vacation. Rome loves her and her family - we will definitely rebook next time we go out of town!”

“Charlie had an amazing stay with Stacy and fam! He got to play outside in a fun fenced-in yard with another fur friend and human friends. He also got to eat some natural dog treats. He will be back!”
“WOWSIE WOW WOW! Short notice and Tavonne was extremely gracious to accept Bailey. SUPER EXCITED that Baily had a few playmates. Extremely GRATEFUL for the several text pictures of Bailey just chillin with his buddies. Extremely GRATEFUL to receive several text pictures of Bailey and his buddies just chillin.”


“My loved dogs received excellent care! Lots of pics. Dogs were brushed and clean when I picked them up. Their tiny dog got along great with my bigger dogs! I recommend them and would use again.”

“Shanae was absolutely amazing , and Nova fully enjoyed her time with Shanae and Ash. I would definitely book with her again with no hesitation. She’s attentive, keeps you informed, and makes sure to send lots of pictures. She truly has an amazing spirit”


“We had a great experience working with Melanie! She was attentive, caring, and kept us updated throughout our pet (Kash’s) stay. We really appreciated the regular pictures and messages showing how he was doing, it gave us so much peace of mind. Kash was well cared for, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Angela is the absolute best. She provided the best care and treated my dog like a king. My high energy dog came back so well behaved and incredibly well groomed, she treated him to spa days, made him amazing homemade health treats, stuck to his routine and provided me so many updates and pictures I was never left questioning his wellbeing. I almost don’t want to leave this review so I don’t have to fight for her care in the future. But she is honestly the best care giver. I don’t want anyone else watching my dog but angela at this point. 100/10. Thank you angela ❤️❤️”

“Cristen and family were amazing! Wish we had found them before. They took very good care of Asher while we were at our daughter’s graduation. We didn’t have to worry about Asher at all. Wonderful family!”


“Very satisfied with Sunny's stay with Jeff. I was reluctant to leave my precious girl with anyone other than family but Jeff sent pictures and assured me that Sunny was doing OK. I intend to leave Sunny with the Syvias during my future travels.”

“Our dog was treated like she was part of their family. We received lots updates and pics of how she was doing. Lots of walks and love. When we picked her up to go home, our dog was happy and relaxed, not stressed out and exhausted; it was obvious she was well cared for.”
“So glad we found Hillary and her family! It was so easy to enjoy our son’s graduation weekend, knowing our aging Golden was in good hands. He was loved on, exercised, and made part of the family while he was there ❤️”

“We felt confident our sweet girl was being well cared for and receiving lots of love. We were kept up to date with photos which we really appreciated. Sammy was a great companion and overall it was a great experience. Thank you!”

“Leaving our beloved Hector to Amber and Dane was the best choice we could ever make. We had to travel abroad and definitely couldn't take our full of energy puppy with us. Not only Amber and Dan considered Hector like one of their own dog, but, on the pictures and movies we received everyday, it was obvious that Hector had happy time, had a lot of fun and plays with the other dogs and enjoyed this "summer camp" a lot. If for any reason you need a pet sitter, you can definitely trust Amber and Dan to love and open their home and garden to your furry friend as if it was theirs, giving you daily news and pictures/movies and, to summary, being the perfect substitute pawrents. We will always come back to them when we need Hector to be pet-sited again. Do not hesitate to request their services, they are awesomely terrific!”

“Nancy was simply wonderful! Her home is perfect for dogs, with a “they can sleep anywhere” policy suitable for any couch potato like ours! She has her own well behaved dogs who were friendly and very undisturbed by the arrival of our guy. He was happy as a clam with her and I am rebooking him immediately for our next trip.”

“Lisa took exceptional care of my dog. He was very happy while in her care. I got regular updates of how he was doing through the week which were much appreciated. Will definitely book with her again!”

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about wonderful Michele! Our anxious Shih Tzu can be very nervous around new people and changes in routine, but from the very beginning, she showed incredible patience, kindness, and understanding. She took the time to make Charlie feel safe, comfortable, and loved, and it truly made all the difference. We received updates, photos, and reassurance while we were away, which gave us complete peace of mind. It is clear she genuinely cares about animals and treats them like family. We are so grateful to have found someone we trust completely and would highly recommend her to anyone, especially those with anxious pets!”

About: From a very young age, my family had all kinds of animals. I have experience with many breeds of dogs, including Rottweilers, pit bulls, hunting dogs, and rescues, along with horses, pigs, a variety of birds, and hampsters, chinchillas, and a guinnea pig! I was a large animal vet tech (horses, cattle, goats and farm dogs!) before becoming a nurse, and I also grew up with a dog who had diabetes, and have helped several friends treat their puppies at home for Parvo. Also being a nurse, I'm very comfortable with giving injections, wound care, and coaxing your fur baby to take meds :) I work full time, but that still gives me 4 days off a week. I love to be outside and spend my time with animals, walking dogs is a great way to do both! I can be pretty flexible and early morning/late night visits to check on your critters aren't an issue at all for me. Hope to hear from you soon!

About: I have experience providing reliable cat care, including feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, administering basic care, and giving plenty of attention and playtime. I’m attentive to each cat’s routine and behavior to ensure they remain comfortable and stress free while their owner is away. My goal is to provide safe, loving, and dependable care for every cat I watch.
About: Hello, I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and turtles. For the past four years, I’ve mostly been house-sitting/taking care of a good neighbor/friend turtle who I love dearly. I’ve put her to bed and cleaned her cage, along with feeding her while sitting with her for 3+ hours most days. I’ve learned to care for pets as if they are my own and love all animals. :)) Pet care is a vital and seamless part of my daily and weekly routine. Over the past four years, I have taken care of dogs, cats, and especially a neighbor's turtle, who I have grown to love dearly. Each day, I ensure that she is fed and her cage is cleaned, and I spend over three hours sitting with her, ensuring she feels loved and cared for. This routine has taught me to care for pets as if they were my own and deepened my love for all animals. Incorporating pet care into my schedule is crucial to me. I ensure my pet is happy and healthy, from morning walks to evening snuggles. Every activity, whether feeding, brushing, or playing, is an opportunity to deepen our bond and show my pets the love and attention they deserve. Balancing pet care with my other responsibilities, such as my involvement in ROTC at Norwich University for the past three years, has honed my discipline and time management skills. In addition to my ROTC commitments this summer, I am taking summer courses and have lacrosse practices. Despite these busy schedules, I always ensure that pet care remains integral to my routine, reflecting my dedication to their well-being. As a dedicated pet caregiver/Owner, my approach to pet care is tailored to the pet's needs and the environment. I prioritize creating a safe and nurturing space in my own home or while providing services for clients. This includes regular feeding schedules, enriching activities such as walks or playtime, administering medications if needed, and maintaining cleanliness through regular grooming and sanitation practices. Additionally, I strive to provide ample affection and attention to ensure each pet feels valued and loved, whether under my roof or in the comfort of a client's home.
About: I’ve got years of experience caring for dogs and cats. My favorite thing to do is take dogs (especially my own) out for adventures by taking advantage of this beautiful state we get to call home. I love to give dogs the best time when they’re with me whether that’s going out or staying in and their safety and comfortability is my top priority. I work part time on Thursday and Friday nights until the end of December. I have a very open schedule until the end of April. I do have a dog and two cats, so it would be best to board at the owners home vs my own, but I am ok with either. I am avid about getting quality outdoor time that goes beyond potty breaks. Clear instructions of your pets exact care requirements/expectations are important to me so that I can make sure your pet is getting their needs met.

Spring semester is over and will not be back in classes until the Fall! I care for the needs of the pet/pets as instructed by the client. I try to make it so it was as if the client was home!

“Brandy is an excellent dog sitter!!! I’m so grateful to have found her. She was quick to respond and immediately made me feel at ease. Milo went to her home for daycare and he did not want to leave! She played with him, took walks with him, and even did some obedience training. Milo came home tired and happy. She also sent photos and videos which always puts me at ease. I would highly recommend!”

“David is truly amazing! We needed a sitter for our pup at the last minute so I went on Rover and was impressed with David’s profile and reviews. I contacted him and he responded right away. We needed a 5am drop off and he was totally accommodating. Oz spent the day playing with David’s pups and was so happy when we picked him up. David communicated with me during the day to put me at ease and I appreciated that. You know how dog mama’s are lol. We had a great experience and will definitely rebook with him many times in the future.”

“Melissa is PHENOMENAL!!! A truly caring and dedicated sitter!! She was patient and kind and understands how much our baby means to us. To say she went above and beyond is a huge understatement!! I wish I could hire her full-time! Her baby Pappy is a huge cherry on top!! We are so happy!!”

About: I've been an animal lover and owner of cats and dogs my whole life. While in college, I worked at a veterinarian's office just to be around pets, and it was the most rewarding and fun job I ever had! I lost my beloved Cavalier two years ago and miss him dearly, but I'm not ready to own again. I really miss having a pet companion and have lots of love to share with your pets. I live next door to a park, and our neighborhood is perfect for walking and meeting other pets. My home is spacious and clean with a fenced back yard. I will love and care for your pet as my own!! I am home every day. I like to get outside as much as possible to garden or walk around my neighborhood, so I would love to have a pet companion with me!

I am competent in basic obedience training and behavior modification. I am currently working part time from home and will be home all throughout the week. Your pets will never be unattended longer than a couple of hours. I have a fenced yard fit for roaming, sniffing, and running but, better yet, I am located just feet from the First Landing state park trail and only a block from the beach. My home is set up to be pet friendly, your pets will love the comfy couches and beds.
About: I’ve grown up with many animals in my home. Ranging from dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles. I know what it means to feel at ease knowing your pets are being well taken care of while you’re away. Let me be that person for you. Currently, I am a stay at home mom with one small child. Which makes my availability pretty flexible. I will try my best to work out our schedules so that your pets get all the attention they need. I do not view our pets as just pets. They are an extension of our family. Just as much a family member as any other. They deserve time, respect, and love. Nothing feels more rewarding than earning the love and trust of another animal. I strive to provide the best care for God’s beautiful creatures.
About: Lifelong dog lover with 10+ years of experience from puppy stage to seniors, and medically involved dogs.

About: I changed the direction my life was going and found the REASON was Animal Care. I began volunteering at 2 local Humane Societies in 2013. Very shortly thereafter became employed at both Societies = working 7 days a week with animals. I adopted my first 2 pets (torti cats named Cali & Ava) in the Fall of 2013. Adopted a 3rd torti cat in the Spring of 2014 (named Hallie B). I adopted a chihuahua in the Fall of 2016 (named Clara my grandmother’s name). With the exception of Hallie B they have all crossed the Rainbow Bridge. The 1st in December 2020 then June 2021 and most recently in May of this year :-( 🐾🐾🐾 They were adopted as Seniors. They were the best. After 4 years of Humane Society work I changed direction again in 2017 to a more professional aspect of Animal Care becoming employed at a Veterinary Hospital as a Kennel Attendant for over 7 years. I have performed a number of cat drop-ins around the Gloucester area for various residents affiliated with the Humane Society. One such assignment lasted for almost two months while the cat’s owners traveled to Florida for the winter. I currently work (outside of Animal Care) OVERNIGHT 40 hours WEDNESDAY thru SATURDAY. Those days I am usually available for Animal Care from 8am to 2pm. Sunday thru Tuesday I am totally available. There is some flexibility with my overnight work and the possibility of a little accommodation for Animal Care. I also have to spare some time for my own cat’s care. Quality. Compassionate. Care. is what I provide pets. I want them to have the creature comforts that make them feel all warm and comfy and content.

“Alyssa was flexible with our crazy Navy scheduling and constantly sent funny/cute pictures of our pup while she let him out around lunch. Would highly recommend!! She will love your pup as much as you do!!”

About: I have been taking car of all kinds of dogs for years. I've watched dogs from Labrador puppies to senior German Shepards. I've owned dogs my whole life and I've always had a special bond with them. Dogs usually gravitate towards me because I am a very fun and light hearted person. My friends often refer to me as a Disney princess because of how I am with animals. I belive all animals need love and respect and I always do my best to make them feel safe and loved. I am a nanny for a mother of three during the day but I am usually only needed two or three days a week so my weekends are completely free. Even days when I watch my kids I am off by 3pm and can spend evenings with the pets. I have several dogs of my own so my house is fully equipped with w fenced in yard and my house is pet safe. In regards to a clients home I would of course check what the client has in place but as a pet owner I am also aware pets can be sneaky and love to get into mischief. I am always checking on clients pets making sure they are safe and not getting into things they shouldn't. I am also certified in pet cpr and massage therapy incase a pet does get into distress or if they need some other help with pain. Over all my priority is always the health and safety of my client beloved pets.
About: My family has had many dogs I have had to take care of. Other family members and friends have relied on me many times to take care of their pets while they were away! I am currently a full time student at ODU completing my pre-reqs for nursing school. Despite my school schedule, I am still available for your pets needs and am able to stay with them as well! Spring semester is over and will not be back in classes until the Fall! I care for the needs of the pet/pets as instructed by the client. I try to make it so it was as if the client was home!

About: My name is Kayela but you can call me Kaye. I am a nurse in Virginia Beach. But my real other passion is animals. A year prior to going into human medicine, I worked in the I veterinary field as a veterinary technician/assistant. I actually had plans to go to vet school, and then Covid hit; my pathway changed a little. But I don’t want that to stop me from making a difference in the animal world. I worked in the professional veterinary field for 5 years. I worked with all breeds, species, shapes, and colors of animals. I’ve worked with large animals, small animals, diseased and disabled animals. Therefore it would no reason for me not to accept your pet. I have animals of my own as well, 1 large breed dogs and 1 domestic short hair cat. I will love your animals like my own, cuddling included. I do have an extensive history of skills related to animal care as well. If you or your family have animals questions, concerns, or just curiosity in general about your animals well being, feel free to ask! I am starting to build a small clientele currently. I am open right now. Schedule could change. But just message me and we can work something out. I care for my animals more than the average person, due to the fact that I have worked in the animal medicine field. I believe a lot of issues/illnesses are preventable based on how you care for your pet. They are treated like humans in my opinion. They deserve the same attention, the same outdoor time, the same affection. They will be fed accordingly. I will also provide food recommendations as well as portion sizes based on my assessment. You can choose to follow my recommendations or continue to follow your own advice. I believe I can be very helpful with you and your care for your pets.
About: Hey! I am currently in school to be a vet! I can walk dogs 24/7 and give them all the loving! This would be a great way for me to expand my jobs with watching your dogs! I usually am up by 8am and spend most of the day with my dog while I do schooling at home. I’m mostly free of the day besides for leaving for work or getting my brother! I have a small dog who I feed, walk & play with. We do have a dog run in my apartments and I always take my dog out to play with his toys. I also love taking him for runs.
About: Hello, I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and turtles. For the past four years, I’ve mostly been house-sitting/taking care of a good neighbor/friend turtle who I love dearly. I’ve put her to bed and cleaned her cage, along with feeding her while sitting with her for 3+ hours most days. I’ve learned to care for pets as if they are my own and love all animals. :)) Pet care is a vital and seamless part of my daily and weekly routine. Over the past four years, I have taken care of dogs, cats, and especially a neighbor's turtle, who I have grown to love dearly. Each day, I ensure that she is fed and her cage is cleaned, and I spend over three hours sitting with her, ensuring she feels loved and cared for. This routine has taught me to care for pets as if they were my own and deepened my love for all animals. Incorporating pet care into my schedule is crucial to me. I ensure my pet is happy and healthy, from morning walks to evening snuggles. Every activity, whether feeding, brushing, or playing, is an opportunity to deepen our bond and show my pets the love and attention they deserve. Balancing pet care with my other responsibilities, such as my involvement in ROTC at Norwich University for the past three years, has honed my discipline and time management skills. In addition to my ROTC commitments this summer, I am taking summer courses and have lacrosse practices. Despite these busy schedules, I always ensure that pet care remains integral to my routine, reflecting my dedication to their well-being. As a dedicated pet caregiver/Owner, my approach to pet care is tailored to the pet's needs and the environment. I prioritize creating a safe and nurturing space in my own home or while providing services for clients. This includes regular feeding schedules, enriching activities such as walks or playtime, administering medications if needed, and maintaining cleanliness through regular grooming and sanitation practices. Additionally, I strive to provide ample affection and attention to ensure each pet feels valued and loved, whether under my roof or in the comfort of a client's home.

“Brandy was fantastic! We left our large 3 year old dog for a week and a half to go on our honeymoon. We were nervous because it’s our first time away from him - especially since he came from a shelter. Brandy truely loves dogs & she made us feel super comfortable. She provided updates & pics/videos daily which not only made us smile but put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our vacation. Rome loves her and her family - we will definitely rebook next time we go out of town!”

“Leaving our beloved Hector to Amber and Dane was the best choice we could ever make. We had to travel abroad and definitely couldn't take our full of energy puppy with us. Not only Amber and Dan considered Hector like one of their own dog, but, on the pictures and movies we received everyday, it was obvious that Hector had happy time, had a lot of fun and plays with the other dogs and enjoyed this "summer camp" a lot. If for any reason you need a pet sitter, you can definitely trust Amber and Dan to love and open their home and garden to your furry friend as if it was theirs, giving you daily news and pictures/movies and, to summary, being the perfect substitute pawrents. We will always come back to them when we need Hector to be pet-sited again. Do not hesitate to request their services, they are awesomely terrific!”

“Nancy was simply wonderful! Her home is perfect for dogs, with a “they can sleep anywhere” policy suitable for any couch potato like ours!

Our anxious Shih Tzu can be very nervous around new people and changes in routine, but from the very beginning, she showed incredible patience, kindness, and understanding. She took the time to make Charlie feel safe, comfortable, and loved, and it truly made all the difference. We received updates, photos, and reassurance while we were away, which gave us complete peace of mind. It is clear she genuinely cares about animals and treats them like family. We are so grateful to have found someone we trust completely and would highly recommend her to anyone, especially those with anxious pets!”
