“Thank you Mary for taking such good care of our boy, Tanner. He was so happy and really enjoyed his visit with you and your girl. I will be definitely keeping you in mind for future overnights for Tanner. Thank you again!”

“Cheyanne took amazing care of my two cats while I was away, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the start, she was reliable, communicative, and clearly experienced with animals. She sent regular updates, which gave me a lot of peace of mind, and it was obvious my cats were comfortable and well cared for. What really stood out was how patient and attentive she was with them. She made sure they were not only fed and safe, but also happy and getting attention while I was gone. It meant a lot to come back knowing they were in such good hands. I highly recommend Cheyanne to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“Thank you Paul and Terri! Super sweet family and you made Bailey feel right at home. If I am in the area again I will be sure to contact you again. Thank you 😊”

“Lauryn is a sweet, caring individual. I couldn't have asked for someone better!! She loved my girls and treated them like her own!! I got pictures and videos every day, which set my heart at ease. I will definitely use her again!! 🥰”

“She was absolutely great with our pup. He was well taken care of and she kept me updated with pictures and videos through out our time away. I highly recommend her.”

“My wife and I had the birth of our first child scheduled, and last minute we decided to have someone board our smallest dog Icarus. Within 10 minutes of messaging Scott and Amanda they called me and told me to drop my little buddy off. They took such amazing care of him… Everyday they sent me text messages, pictures, videos; they walked Icarus, their kids played with him, their Lab Walter hung out with him. I even dropped Icarus with a bit of a stomach ache and they made sure he didn’t over eat and slowly fed him to make sure he was OK. One the day we were to pickup Icarus my wife and I had to stay at the hospital longer and last minute I asked if they could watch him for 2 more days and they said “no problem at all”. Scott and Amanda are absolutely amazing dog sitters, and they’re even better people.”

“Thank you Crystal for taking care of Oz and Lily. She is very thorough with the process and explains well what to expect. My dogs warmed up and felt really comfortable with her throughout the stay. We appreciate the photos, videos, and updates of our dogs throughout the day. I will definitely be using her for future boarding.”


“Jay was awesome. We were traveling out of town and she was en route to our destination so we had her watch our dog. Pick up and drop off times were flexible, she was excellent when communicating with us, and she was super nice. Bella (our dog) seemed to enjoy herself judging by her happy pics lol.”

“When our dog sitter of over 10yrs moved away, we were worried we wouldn't be able to find a suitable replacment, but I wish we'd found Lisa 10yrs ago!!! Even though its hard for us to imagine how someone could NOT love our dog as much as we do (LOL!) Lisa obviously does care for her tenants as if they were her own! Thank you Lisa!”


“I can only agree with all the amazing reviews! I was scared my two frenchies would not want to leave Stephanies house. They had a blast. You can feel 110 percent confident in leaving your pets with them. We will book again with Stephanie for sure!”
“This was my first time ever using Rover and having someone watch over my dog for multiple days in their home. Jared was great to work with and kept me updated with pictures daily. I truly appreciate the care Jared provided and will definitely use his services in the future.”

“Lyra and Scott and their family totally loved on our little Sassafras. We are so appreciative of their care and all the pictures and updates. I would recommend them to anyone looking for care for their fur babies. Will use them again! ?”

“Hillary and her crew took great care of my two dogs. I could tell that they were treated as members of their family. She left me with regular updates so I could relax and enjoy my time away. I will definitely be a repeat customer.”

“We are very satisfied with the service that Teona and Louelyn provided. I know it is not easy for providers to care for a pet with special needs but because of the quality of care you showed Georgie, I had peace of mind all throughout Georgie’s stay with you. Thank you so very much.”

“Max is unable to be boarded in a facility. Having Elisabeth care for Max has been a godsend as I’m finally able to plan get away trips. I can relax and enjoy my time knowing he’s receiving great care.”


“Rodney is amazing! He took good care of our sweet standard poodle while we were out of town. Very responsive and friendly. My dog had the best days while staying with him. Highly recommend him!”

“Rhianna took great care of our very shy, skittish cat. He usually hides when new people enter the apartment. She was able to find him each day and even sent me pictures! I’m happy with the care she gave our cat, Toast!”

“Avery is great!! She had excellent communication and follow-through the entire week of drop-in visits at my house. I loved the personalized notes/report cards she left after each visit. Avery is very trustworthy in your home. Her warm and calm demeanor is perfect for the care of your animals. I knew that my pet was in good hands from the moment I met her… This peace-of-mind allowed me to enjoy my vacation and time with my family even more - knowing my cat’s personal care was being handled with the upmost professionalism back home… I can always tell the level of care a pet sitter gives while I am gone, based on my cat’s behavior and stress level when I return, and my cat couldn’t have been more relaxed - like I never left! I would highly recommend Avery to anyone looking for a quality pet sitter.”
“KELLY IS SO AWESOME!!!! MY BABY TRIGGER LOVED HER AND SHE RETURNED SHOWED HIM THAT HE WAS AND IS LOVED... SHE WAS ON TIME AND DID EVERYTHING THAT I ASKED OF HER WHILE TAKING CARE OF MY BABY. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING. I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS APP AND USING KELLY. SHE WOULD BE THE 1ST PERSON I REQUEST WHEN I NEED THIS SERVICE AGAIN..”


“Alyssa took great care of my cats and gave me some note on how they were both doing. Everything was smooth and my cats seemed very comfortable around her. She was also kind enough to bring in some of my mail. I will be rebooking the next time I’m out of town!”


“Ginny is amazing! My dog warmed up to her as soon as she stepped in and Ginny made us all feel super comfortable about her care. Would strongly recommend, and we will be using her regular!”

“Kaylan did a great job taking care of my kitties while I was out of town. She even went the extra mile and fed a stray that hangs out in my yard. He's used to me feeding him and will hopefully be part of our family soon too. Thanks!!”

About: Cat sitting is a calm and rewarding experience. When I arrive, I make sure the cat has fresh food, water, and a clean litter box. At first, some cats may be shy and keep their distance, so I give them space and move gently around them. Over time, the cats become more comfortable. Some will come up for attention, while others prefer to relax nearby. I follow their routine and pay attention to their behavior to make sure they are happy and healthy. Cat sitting is about being patient, respectful, and making sure the cat feels safe and cared for while their owner is away.

I look forward to making new canine friends and believe it will be mutual.
“Chelsea did a wonderful job! She was greeted with a puke mess on the carpet to clean up. So sorry about that! Sienna did well--as much as she does when I'm gone. I'm sure she enjoyed getting out for a walk.”

About: You can finally relax knowing your pet will be safe, treated like family and given all the love. Hi there! I’m a stay-at-home mom located in the Hilton area of Newport News. I’m active, reliable, and available from early mornings until late afternoon. I’ve cared for everything from a home full of 7 cats and 4 labradoodles (all at once!) to countless pets belonging to friends, family, and friends of friends. I have a 6 year old son with special needs who absolutely adores pets so if you’re looking for boarding, please make sure your pet is child-friendly. During the day however, he’s in school and I will be able to cover those who may not be small child friendly. I don’t mind hopping in the car to take your pup to the park or on a trail if they need more than just a quick lap around the block. I’m a big morning person who thrives on routine but, full disclosure, I avoid rush hour or late-night driving since my son is with me after 3:30 p.m. Monday–Friday. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in, or a place to stay while you’re away, I am here to help. Just drop me and line❤️ I’m available Mon-Fri from 5am-5pm for walks, parks, even just a home visit and car ride if your pet just needs some 1:1 during work hours. Weekends are limited so send me a message during the week to check availability. I have a large yard but it is not fenced. My son and I enjoy walking whenever we can around our neighborhood in Hilton. I have a pet and baby proof clean home with a gentle loving child. Cleanliness is of the utmost importance to me so you won’t have to worry about anyone making a mess and it not being cleaned up.

“Alison took amazing care of my French Bulldog, J3, while I was at work. J3 can be a little particular—he loves attention, has specific routines, and can be sensitive to heat—but Alison followed all instructions perfectly and made sure he was comfortable, happy, and safe. I received regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. It’s not easy to find someone who treats your pet like family, but Alison truly did. Thank you again for being so reliable, loving, and attentive with J3. We’ll definitely be booking with you again!”

“Mary was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! Yesterday she took care of our dogs all day during our wedding. She checked in on them three times and even delivered our dogs to our wedding venue so our brother could walk our dogs down the aisle during the ceremony. She hung out for the wedding, and then delivered them back to our hotel. She was so pleasant, followed every recommendation and request we made, and our dogs were so well cared for!

“Thank you Mary for taking such good care of our boy, Tanner. He was so happy and really enjoyed his visit with you and your girl. I will be definitely keeping you in mind for future overnights for Tanner. Thank you again!”

“Cheyanne took amazing care of my two cats while I was away, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the start, she was reliable, communicative, and clearly experienced with animals. She sent regular updates, which gave me a lot of peace of mind, and it was obvious my cats were comfortable and well cared for. What really stood out was how patient and attentive she was with them. She made sure they were not only fed and safe, but also happy and getting attention while I was gone. It meant a lot to come back knowing they were in such good hands. I highly recommend Cheyanne to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“She was absolutely great with our pup. He was well taken care of and she kept me updated with pictures and videos through out our time away. I highly recommend her.”

“My wife and I had the birth of our first child scheduled, and last minute we decided to have someone board our smallest dog Icarus. Within 10 minutes of messaging Scott and Amanda they called me and told me to drop my little buddy off. They took such amazing care of him… Everyday they sent me text messages, pictures, videos; they walked Icarus, their kids played with him, their Lab Walter hung out with him. I even dropped Icarus with a bit of a stomach ache and they made sure he didn’t over eat and slowly fed him to make sure he was OK. One the day we were to pickup Icarus my wife and I had to stay at the hospital longer and last minute I asked if they could watch him for 2 more days and they said “no problem at all”. Scott and Amanda are absolutely amazing dog sitters, and they’re even better people.”

“Thank you Crystal for taking care of Oz and Lily. She is very thorough with the process and explains well what to expect. My dogs warmed up and felt really comfortable with her throughout the stay. We appreciate the photos, videos, and updates of our dogs throughout the day. I will definitely be using her for future boarding.”

“When our dog sitter of over 10yrs moved away, we were worried we wouldn't be able to find a suitable replacment, but I wish we'd found Lisa 10yrs ago!!! Even though its hard for us to imagine how someone could NOT love our dog as much as we do (LOL!) Lisa obviously does care for her tenants as if they were her own! Thank you Lisa!”


“I can only agree with all the amazing reviews! I was scared my two frenchies would not want to leave Stephanies house. They had a blast. You can feel 110 percent confident in leaving your pets with them. We will book again with Stephanie for sure!”
“This was my first time ever using Rover and having someone watch over my dog for multiple days in their home. Jared was great to work with and kept me updated with pictures daily. I truly appreciate the care Jared provided and will definitely use his services in the future.”

“Lyra and Scott and their family totally loved on our little Sassafras. We are so appreciative of their care and all the pictures and updates. I would recommend them to anyone looking for care for their fur babies. Will use them again! ?”

“Hillary and her crew took great care of my two dogs. I could tell that they were treated as members of their family. She left me with regular updates so I could relax and enjoy my time away. I will definitely be a repeat customer.”

“We are very satisfied with the service that Teona and Louelyn provided. I know it is not easy for providers to care for a pet with special needs but because of the quality of care you showed Georgie, I had peace of mind all throughout Georgie’s stay with you. Thank you so very much.”

“Max is unable to be boarded in a facility. Having Elisabeth care for Max has been a godsend as I’m finally able to plan get away trips. I can relax and enjoy my time knowing he’s receiving great care.”


“Rodney is amazing! He took good care of our sweet standard poodle while we were out of town. Very responsive and friendly. My dog had the best days while staying with him. Highly recommend him!”

“Cristen and her whole family were absolutely amazing with my Norman!! Sent updates regularly and treated him as their own. I couldn’t be more appreciative of them!!”

“If I could give 10 stars, I would do so!! I recently moved to Virginia and needed to board my beagle for an out of town trip. I was very anxious because I haven’t connected with a place that I felt comfortable leaving him. Roxana put my fears to rest immediately. The frequent updates, photos and videos of my pup having the time of his life eased my mind and allowed me to enjoy my trip. I will 100% book with Roxana again.”

“Milena was great! She treated my boy like one of her own. She was communicative and sent lots of pictures as I was initially anxious about leaving him. Thank you so much for treating him well! We will be booking with her again!”
