“Kayce and her husband were great! She sent photo updates the entire time he was there and was super responsive as I checked in. Norman was very well taken care of. Thanks again guys!”
“Christine and Nick once again provided excellent care for my dog while we were on a trip. They were flexible with changes in schedule, provided frequent pics and updates about Mae, and are friendly and responsive.”
“Kelsey is very flexible and responsive. My dog looked sad to leave! Oddly enough, we are excited to drop our dog off for our next vacation because we knot she'll have a great time. We highly recommend Kelsey!”
“Abby was great! I appreciate that she took the time to meet my boy before his stay to ensure that all the 4 legged friends would be suitable together. I asked for lots of pictures and videos and she delivered. It's difficult being away from my boy so getting constant updates was a huge plus!”
“Dylan and Alex did a great job of taking care of Jupiter. She was one happy puppy when I picked her up. Also, they were super flexible with the drop off and pickup times, as at one point, Jupiter and her parents were all sick lol. We really appreciate you guys and look forward to bringing Jupiter back. Thanks again!! :)”
“Ellysia is the best! My pups had the greatest time with her and her family. Updated daily with pictures and activities. We will definitely be using her again and recommend her hands down.”
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and truly enjoy caring for them as if they were my own. I’m a responsible, patient, and attentive person who understands how important it is for pet parents to feel at ease while they’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, including feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel safe and loved. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs, and I’m comfortable following specific routines or instructions. I will treat your pet with love, respect, and care—just like family. 🐾💛 I’m also very communicative and will send regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel connected and worry-free. I work from home running my small business, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. The only times I step out are briefly to drop off and pick up my daughter from school. Because of this, your pet will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m available for boarding, daycare, and walks, with a flexible schedule to meet your pet’s needs. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where your pet will feel at home. I always prioritize their comfort and well-being, following any specific routines, feeding schedules, or instructions you provide. I supervise pets closely, keep a clean and secure space, and make sure they feel relaxed and cared for at all times. I’m also happy to send regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Your pet will be treated with the same love and attention as my own. 🐾💛
“Kendra did amazing Niko!! She let us know how he did every single day with a detailed explanation which made me feel super comfortable. She kept my mind at ease. Will forever be going to Kendra ❤️”
“Sure! Here’s a thoughtful review you can use: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amanda and Adam did an amazing job pet-sitting my dog over the weekend! They made sure she felt right at home, sending me daily updates and adorable pictures that gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear they truly cared for her, and I could tell she was happy and well taken care of. I really appreciate their reliability and kindness, and I will absolutely continue to use them in the future. Highly recommend!”
“We have used Lucky a number of times and she has been great. I think she loves Luther, enjoys walking him and his play time with her dog. We will definitely use her again.”
“Very professional and practical. The communication was punctual and timely. I was very pleased to see our dog having such a lovely time during my time away. Highly recommend Anita for your Rover needs.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My dog had such a fun time , so much that she didn’t want to leave when we came to pick her up. The dogs were so sweet and welcoming to Jenni. Their house and yard are so lovely, dog friendly, and safe. I look forward to having Jenni stay at Courtney’s home very soon. 20 out of 10 stars !”
“Amy and her family were great! Cleo is an old dog, I usually take her with me but this time we were traveling for a funeral. It was our first time using Rover or leaving her with others, I was nervous. Our drop off time was early in the day but they were accommodating. Amy kept me posted on how Cleo was doing and sent pics every day which was unexpected but very much appreciated. Cleo clearly got lots of love from the whole family. I highly recommend Amy and Grant P. (and family.)”
“Madelyn took excellent care of my dog Link and provided me with consistent updates so that I knew he was in good hands. I chose her to board him while I was away for the holidays, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to do the same. I could tell he was treated as if she was his own. Thank you!”
“We left our doggie with Ari while traveling for two weeks and we couldn't have asked for anyone better to look after him. Our special boy is a senior Schnoodle that we rescued last year from a breeder situation gone really bad. Ari and her family welcomed him with open arms and treated him like he was one of the family. She sent daily updates and we thought our boy may not want to come home after seeing how much fun he was having in the photos. Also, he made a new best friend with the family dog Apollo. I would recommend Ari to anyone that is looking for a home-away-from home for their fur babies.”
“Could not speak more highly of her! Took excellent care of my pets and even took one to the emergency vet when she broke a tooth (known rock chewer). Would not trust anyone else”

“Once again, Darnell did a fabulous job taking care of our senior kitty Gus. Darnell was very professional, sent us lots of photos, and gave us a thorough message with each visit. We knew we left our home and kitty in good hands--and came home to a well-fed, happy kitty. We have loved working with Darnell and would absolutely hire him anytime for cat care!”
“Kayce has been an amazing! She is the most prompt sitter! She immediately responds and goes above and beyond with communication. She sends updates and gives detailed responses. She took my request to watch my 3 cats on short notice and during the holidays. She was even willing to check on the cats more often because she thought it would make them more comfortable. I couldn’t recommend Kayce enough.”

“Hana is amazing! She’s so flexible and understanding when it comes to schedules and demands of each animal in the home. She truly cares about our animals (she will leave our tv on for our dog so she isn’t lonely) and does enrichment treats without us even asking her to. I trust her with our babies 100%”
About: I’ve been in the veterinary field for 3 years and I’m going to school to be a technician! I love helping animals and their owners. I’m currently working full time but can come over during lunch breaks and play with your animals or even go for a walk or play fetch! I can stay at your house or do walks a few times and day as well as feeding and giving medication if needed. I like playing with animals and making sure they’re having as much fun as possible while you’re away!
About: As a lifelong cat lover and the current proud owner of two indoor cats, I know exactly what it takes to keep your feline friends happy, safe, and comfortable while you are away. Cats can be sensitive to change, and my experience allows me to respect their boundaries while ensuring they get the care they need, whether they are social or independent. I am highly adept at the essential, hands-on aspects of cat care, including scooping litter, cleaning up unexpected messes, and successfully administering oral pills or other medications without causing extra stress. I am available for daily drop-in visits to refresh food and water, clean the litter box, and provide plenty of play and affection so you can travel with total peace of mind.
“We couldn’t have been more pleased with the care Danielle gave our two rambunctious 1-year-old cats while we were away. The “boys” clearly loved her and seemed happy and content when we returned home. In addition to feeding and playing with the cats, Danielle kept in constant contact with us, updating us on what the boys were up to and sending lots of photos. We highly recommend Danielle. It was so nice not having to worry about a thing while we were away.”
About: I currently own a 2YO cat whom Ive learned so much from. Knowing their needs and wants has become number one priority to me so they can live the best life they well deserve. I am experienced with showing love, care and compassion.
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old and I am 22 now. I consider dogs to be one of the many keys to happiness so I treat them as such. Whether that be long walks in the neighborhood, endless cuddles, or a friend to play with, they get what they need. I have never discriminated against a dog based on size or breed because all dogs deserve love and care no matter what. I take care of my dogs to the best of my ability so I will always do the same for others. You can be assured that they are in good hands. So if you need someone to love and care for your dog when you're not there I'm your girl! I am currently the primary care taker for my family dog, Raine. This includes walks 2x day, feedings, bath, etc. I ensure he takes his medicine, has lots of play time and clean bedding. I do not currently care for other dogs in my home. However, in my client’s home I ensure that the space is clear and void of anything that could bring harm to their pets. I make sure to regularly check up on them and listen to their needs.
“I travel frequently, and Brandie has been an absolute lifesaver. She’s always reliable, consistent, and communicates so well. I truly appreciate the exceptional care she gave my cats, especially over the holidays. I highly recommend Brandie and will definitely be booking her again for future pet sitting needs.”
About: While I don't currently have a cat/kitten due to my dog's prey drive, I have had cats/kittens in the past with my family. I have helped care for them since I was young with our first cat, Princess. My brother has 4 cats, 3 Maine coon mix & a very sassy tabby, who I have helped care for and always love on when I'm at his house. I'm also a fan of playing with lasers.
About: Hello: I have a lifelong passion for animals, particularly dogs, developed through years of personal experience as a dedicated pet owner since childhood. Growing up with pets instilled in me a strong sense of responsibility, compassion, and attentiveness to animal well-being. In addition to being a devoted pet owner, I am also a nurse, which strengthens my ability to provide informed, detail-oriented, and safety-focused care. I am deeply committed to caring for dogs both holistically and medically, taking a balanced approach that supports their physical health, emotional wellness, and overall quality of life. I value preventive care, proper nutrition, and natural wellness practices, while fully understanding the importance of routine veterinary care, medical treatments, and ongoing health monitoring. My healthcare background allows me to recognize subtle changes in behavior or condition, administer care responsibly, and prioritize safety at all times. I take pride in providing patient, knowledgeable, and compassionate care, ensuring every dog feels safe, healthy, and genuinely loved. I hope you & your fur baby are doing well. I am available Mondays- Sundays for drop in visits. I’m available Mondays-Sundays for boarding at my home. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in every aspect of pet care, whether in my home or in a client’s home. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, medical needs, and any special instructions provided by the owner. Maintaining consistency helps reduce stress and builds trust with both pets and their families. In my home, pets are cared for in a calm, clean, and secure environment. I ensure all spaces are pet-safe, free from hazards, and appropriately supervised. Pets are never left unattended for extended periods, and I provide structured feeding times, regular potty breaks, playtime, and rest to support their physical and emotional well-being. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions exactly as given. I maintain the pet’s familiar routine, monitor behavior and health closely, and provide updates to ensure peace of mind. I am attentive to signs of stress or discomfort and respond promptly and responsibly. I am experienced in both holistic and medical care, including administering medications as directed, monitoring health changes, supporting proper nutrition, and providing gentle, natural wellness practices when appropriate. My goal is always to create a safe, nurturing, and trustworthy environment where pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for.
About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats for over 7 years, starting with my own dog who’s been with me since I adopted him when he was 1 yr old. While I haven’t done formal training or grooming, I’ve handled daily care routines like walking, feeding, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. I care for every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s companionship or daily care, I bring patience, affection, and a calm presence to every visit. I work full time but work Monday and Thursday’s from home so I can hang out with them all day! I can check in on your pet those days along with weekends! Would love to take them on a walk. I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions closely whether it’s feeding times, walks, playtime, or medication needs. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands while you’re away.

“It was my first time using the Rover app and first time for my puppy in a sitter. Kayce and her family was amazing!!! They take good care of Max while me and my kid's are away.

About: I grew up with many dogs of all sizes and personalities — from calm seniors to hyper puppies — and we also fostered animals growing up. Before having children, I worked at a doggy daycare, where I learned to care for multiple pets at once. Currently, my husband and I board for family and friends, and we’re excited to expand our care to more pets because we truly love animals! I am a stay-at-home wife, so your pets will have someone at home with them throughout the day giving attention, cuddles, and care. My husband works outside of the home, but he’s happy to help and loves animals too! We have three kids (infant to 8 years old) who absolutely adore animals, and we welcome both dogs and cats of all personalities. While our 2.5-acre yard isn’t fenced, we have a dog trolley system that allows pets to safely explore and enjoy the outdoors while leashed. We also love walks, playtime, and games of fetch for dogs who enjoy daily exercise. With us, your furry family members will receive lots of love, attention, and supervision throughout the day! I’m a stay-at-home mom, so she’s available to care for pets throughout the day. My husband is home outside of my work schedule, so together we can provide attention, supervision, and love for your dog or cat almost all day. Safety: Your pet’s safety is our top priority. While our 2.5-acre yard isn’t fully fenced, we use a dog trolley system that allows pets to safely roam and explore while remaining leashed. Inside the home, pets are supervised at all times. Trust: We treat every pet like family, providing attentive care, consistent routines, and regular updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. Environment: Our home is loving, calm, and kid-friendly, with plenty of space for pets to play, rest, and feel comfortable. We welcome dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities.
“Christine and Nick are absolutely incredible with our German Shepherd, Aurora. This was her first time staying away from home and socializing with other dogs, and they made her feel completely safe, loved, and part of the family. They followed her routine, handled her quirks with confidence and compassion, and kept us updated the entire time. Aurora always comes home exhausted, happy, and clearly well cared for. We’re so grateful to have found such trustworthy and experienced sitters— Highly recommend!”
“Jeanette was great! She was able to accommodate Romeo in a very short time frame, and had to wake up early for the drop off. She kept me updated and Romeo loved her! Overall great experience.”

About: Hi my names Amadi. Thanks for taking a second to check out my profile! I have a little over 15 years of experience in training dogs, helping with socialization skills, and general caretaking. Currently I work from home, a light schedule as I’m testing to obtain another specialty license. In my daily life I used to foster dogs for a rescue. Most of my fosters came from very rough beginnings and had many social and/or anxiety issues but we have been able to overcome them💙 With that being said I totally understand how some dogs are unsure of new people and I’m 100% willing to take the time needed to get to know your fur baby. I do currently have an iguana in his own enclosure and I have extensive reptile knowledge and I’m willing to assist with those as well. I currently have a light schedule that I work from home, so I am available for a lot of pet care needs. I do frequent bathroom visits play, and meal time. I am 100% about safety first. I will not accept any new dogs that will put anyone else in jeopardy. Although I have experience in housing a large number of dogs from my time fostering out in Goochland, and my time working in a doggy daycare, I do not wish to take on a large number of dogs at any one time.

I may request proof of vaccinations prior to your booking, especially for boarding or daycare stays where pets may be in shared spaces. Additionally: • Dogs should be free of fleas, ticks, and any contagious illnesses • Please let me know if your pet has recently been sick or exposed to illness • Pets showing signs of illness (vomiting, diarrhea, coughing, etc.) may need to reschedule for everyone’s safety I truly care about creating a safe, clean, and stress-free environment for every pet. Thank you for helping me keep all my furry guests happy and healthy! 🐶💛 I have plenty of free time to play with your pets, as I work from home part time. We love walks, so a well behaved dog is always welcome on our walks with us. The children in my life are also dog lovers and will be happy to snuggle, play and dote on your fur baby, too. I have a fenced in yard, a pet friendly home and I have a large crate, if needed. For anxious dogs, I have the space to keep your fur baby apart from other animals in my home.

“Amanda is hands down a five-star sitter! She watched my dog all day and did an incredible job managing her high energy; she really went above and beyond to get all those "zoomies" out, and I picked up a very happy, tired pup. Her communication was also top-notch throughout the day, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. If you’re looking for someone reliable who truly knows how to engage with dogs, I highly recommend booking with Amanda!”

She allowed the my pup & her dogs to get comfortable with one another and sent me updates throughout the day without prompting. I truly appreciate her kindness and expertise and will definitely book with her again.”
“Abreya is wonderful. Great communication, friendly, & flexible. Don’t hesitate to book her. We needed services early morning hours outside of her normal hours & she was able to do it. Communication was top notch. Definitely will be using her again & again. Thanks again Abreya.”
“Lisa was an absolute gem of a dog sitter! Her bubbly personality immediately put both me and my dogs at ease. She was incredibly generous with her communication, sending me regular updates and photos of their daily adventures, which I truly appreciated. It was so clear from every interaction that she has a genuine love for canines. I'd highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter.”
“Deven and Tyreek were AMAZING with Ms.Jaxon. She was very timid at first but they won her over very quickly. Now she gets excited as soon as we enter the neighborhood 🥹 And the photos💕💕💕”

About: I am a dog lover!! I have always had dogs in my family for as long as I can remember. I've had experience with many different breeds and know that they are all different but all of them give you many reasons to love them. I believe that dogs are not just pets but also members of your family. I've raised and trained dogs from pekingnese to bully breeds. This is a perfect experience to enjoy many breeds and introduce my child to many breeds and continue to fulfill my love for dogs while encouraging hers. I look forward to being your pets best friend while you're away. I can ensure you that they will love their time with me and you will be sorry free.
About: I’ve owned and cared for furry (scaled and feathered!) friends my whole life. From cats and dogs, to guinea pigs and bunnies, to fish and birds. I even have experience caring for sugar gliders and a ball python. I’ve worked as a pet uber (with a company called Leash) and volunteered at shelters, socializing events, and cat rescues for several years, so I’m used to interacting with all kinds of pet personalities and ages. From shy snugglers, to loyal guardians, to spunky characters, to goofy adventurers, I love them all! You can trust I will love on your baby and treat them with as much care as I do my own fur babies. My schedule is fairly flexible right now since my medical retirement from the Army in October. I’m currently working on an online M.S. in psych and substitute teaching in my boyfriend’s town (Clarksville, VA) whenever I’m available. Since it’s a long commute and I’m typically called the morning of, I try to keep Monday and Tuesday open to sub if needed. I am more than willing to do virtual and in person meet and greets to learn pet needs and routines. I prefer to meet in person to get acquainted with your pet while they feel safe in your presence (but I’ve never met a pet I didn’t click with and love immediately.) I’ll accept any additional written/typed outlines detailing your pets care if that’s easier than leaving notes in the app. You name it and I’ll do it; whatever is best for you and your fur baby. Dogs under my care will enjoy long walks and dog parks trips where applicable. If you have a puppy (or dog) in training, I love to partner in their learning using whatever commands you prefer. Kitties under my care will get lots of playtime with wands and lasers, as well as tons of snuggles.
About: Very loving and passionate about fur babies! We own a personal farm whom we take love and compassion to care for them! I have experience with home pets along with outside pets. i am a very active women who can keep up with any active pet. Looking forward to meeting new lovely fur babies! Available during the day, Monday through Friday. Can do some evenings and will also be available weekends depending on times client want the service done.

About: I have a few dogs at my house already but I've also been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I used to volunteer at rescues. My family also has many pets and farm animals I help take care of these include fish, hamsters, and budgies. I'm currently in college right now studying life science but I have plenty of free time. During that time I'd like to take care of animals. I like to take care of your pets however you like them taken care of. I'll wake up early for morning walks or stay up late to clean up after them.
About: I am a former dog owner who's trained a few dogs. I will treat the dog like my own! I understand the importance of routine, exercise, and cuddles! I work full time. Mostly from home. My significant other has an alternative schedule so the dog would be under 24 hour supervision. I can't wait to have a buddy with me throughout the day! I understand how anxious your paw partner may be while you are away -- I am here to console your paw partner until you are back 💕 I live in a single home with a large fenced backyard with a pool they can play in!

About: I have been taking care of my own dogs since I was young and love to be around all animals! I used to nanny for a family with 5 kids and they had a wonderful dog that I always helped to care for! Feeding and taking him to the groomers and vet appointments…all things that I was lucky to get to help with! I also used to care for 2 cats (both needing to take medication) and a bull dog on a daily basis! I have a Jack Russell (that just passed away) myself that I had for about 10+ years and no kids do she was my only fur baby! I have recently in the past year gotten a brand new puppy named Sugar! She is a beagle/terrier/lab mix and 25 pounds of Adorableness! She is so sweet And absolutely my little girl, as she follows me everywhere and tries to be wherever I am, and always under foot!!! She’s a little skittish and still all puppy at eight months! So I am no stranger to puppy needs at all! I also have Bella, who is a pit/beagle mix and she is a little over a year and a half old! She is 60 pounds of crazy but happy and smart and always at my husband side! What a love bug! But remember, with pets, there is no personal space! Lol I love pets of all kinds and will care for them as if they were my own! Snuggles are free!!! I am currently a part-time private nanny, to a bunch of different families who may need care for their little ones day a week, and my schedule is always changing from week to week! This is a little niche that I found that nobody was able to fill, and I wanted to dedicate my career to helping those families who only need four hours a day one day a week and that doesn’t necessarily need to be the same day. As my schedules always changing, my availability will always be changing so I will try to keep that up-to-date as I hope more of you reach out! I’m really looking forward to all the snuggles! I am always very mindful of the time for feedings and walks…any medication will be given correctly and timely…I will make sure your home is locked up after I leave from a walk and/or feeding! Please know that I will do my best to. Gain the trust of the animal! Cats too!
About: Growing up my family always had at least one or more pets of various breeds so I have 20+ years of experience around animals. I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, lizards, rabbits, goats, and hedgehogs. Personally, my husband & I have 2 dogs currently, 9 & 10 years old, one having epilepsy & is dependent on medication. I have helped raise/care for/train puppies, kittens, baby rabbits, & baby goats. The only pet I'm not comfortable with is snakes, my little sister has one but I only look at it from 3ft away in its enclosure, haha. I work part time Tu/W/Th 8A - 5P, I do not mind caring for pets those days, however I will be gone all day. Otherwise, I'm available for your pets needs! My personal routine with my pets: My husband helps me care for our pets daily but his schedule is a bit different than mine, so our dogs are let out at least within 4-6 hours those days. Otherwise, we let them out every 2-4 depending on their needs (which they have been trained to lets us know if they need to go sooner). Our medical dog is on a 12 hr medication schedule. I'd prefer to care in my clients home due to one of my dogs having a reactive past, it was quite a transition when we inherited our other dog. If you have a specific routine, I'm ready to follow it to the T! I'm comfortable walking dogs on leash, hanging out/playing with them in a fenced yard, or just chilling inside. As mentioned, I have experience with medically dependent pets. I have an escape artist, so I'm always vigilant of their proximity to me and prepared to run/chase in the event something happens. I can stay at the home with the pets or I can visit throughout the day!

“Abby was great! I appreciate that she took the time to meet my boy before his stay to ensure that all the 4 legged friends would be suitable together. I asked for lots of pictures and videos and she delivered. It's difficult being away from my boy so getting constant updates was a huge plus!”
“Dylan and Alex did a great job of taking care of Jupiter. She was one happy puppy when I picked her up. Also, they were super flexible with the drop off and pickup times, as at one point, Jupiter and her parents were all sick lol. We really appreciate you guys and look forward to bringing Jupiter back. Thanks again!! :)”

I will treat your pet with love, respect, and care—just like family. 🐾💛 I’m also very communicative and will send regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel connected and worry-free.

“Sure! Here’s a thoughtful review you can use: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amanda and Adam did an amazing job pet-sitting my dog over the weekend! They made sure she felt right at home, sending me daily updates and adorable pictures that gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear they truly cared for her, and I could tell she was happy and well taken care of. I really appreciate their reliability and kindness, and I will absolutely continue to use them in the future. Highly recommend!”
“We have used Lucky a number of times and she has been great. I think she loves Luther, enjoys walking him and his play time with her dog. We will definitely use her again.”
“Very professional and practical. The communication was punctual and timely. I was very pleased to see our dog having such a lovely time during my time away. Highly recommend Anita for your Rover needs.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My dog had such a fun time , so much that she didn’t want to leave when we came to pick her up. The dogs were so sweet and welcoming to Jenni. Their house and yard are so lovely, dog friendly, and safe. I look forward to having Jenni stay at Courtney’s home very soon. 20 out of 10 stars !”
“We left our doggie with Ari while traveling for two weeks and we couldn't have asked for anyone better to look after him. Our special boy is a senior Schnoodle that we rescued last year from a breeder situation gone really bad. Ari and her family welcomed him with open arms and treated him like he was one of the family. She sent daily updates and we thought our boy may not want to come home after seeing how much fun he was having in the photos. Also, he made a new best friend with the family dog Apollo. I would recommend Ari to anyone that is looking for a home-away-from home for their fur babies.”
“Adam is a natural, per Cooper. We knew the moment we met him that Cooper was in good hands. Cooper took to him immediately and made himself at home. We got him back last night and Cooper was calm and happy. Thanks Adam!!!”
“Alison is amazing! I was a little worried about how Louie would be once we left but she did a great job reassuring me he was ok! She didn’t skip a beat with her updates and plenty of pictures! I can tell he felt the love from her just as much as I could tell just by the pictures! I would definitely rebook if she’s available!”
