“Paul and Terri were absolutely amazing! They offered great communication, gave extra care and attention to our allergy pup, sent pictures throughout the day, and were flexible with drop-off/pick-up timing as we traveled out of state. They have more than enough outdoor space for pups to play safely. They were attentive to our pups needs, limiting outdoor time when too hot. I could tell by the pictures shared that our pup was happy and comfortable while in their care. Thank You Guys!!”
“My dogs are usually very upset when I drop them off at the sitters', but not this time! My dogs were happy to see Omaira & Isaac again, and I was so happy to see this! They also went out of their way to make sure that my babies had their wet food, which they could tell I forgot to bring - such attention to detail, they really don't miss a beat! Thanks again guys!”
“Billy had a wonderful time at Lauryn’s! I came home to find a very happy and well looked after dog! Lauryn was great throughout my time away and sent regular updates and pictures of Billy, and I could see he was being well looked after. She also prepared some food for him which I had forgotten to drop off, which was a very nice bonus. I would absolutely recommend Lauryn!”
“Our dog chief was in the best of hands with Scott and Lyra! They loved on him like he was their own and we had so much peace of mind with him at their home. When we picked him up, he was actually sad to leave ! That’s some pretty high praise from a dog right there. Thanks guys - you are the absolute best !”
“Jess was amazing!! She sent me so many pictures of my sweet boy while we were gone. My dog also eats a different food and she took care of him so well. Will definitely use her again and highly recommend!”
“Rachel was great with Aspen. Her dogs and Aspen became fast friends very quickly. I received so many pictures it was delightful! When I ran out of time to bring Aspen to her, she was out not so far away and picked her up. Then was headed my way anyway, so returned her after I returned. Aspen will be very happy to go back as needed.”
“Three visits in, and Mrs. Crystal continues to exceed our expectations. She’s attentive, consistent, and truly understands Jaxon’s needs. We always receive thoughtful updates, and Jaxon comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which says everything. It gives us real peace of mind knowing he’s with her on a staycation lol😃 So grateful we found her on Rover, highly recommend! Thank you ❤️”
“Riley had the best time over the weekend playing with Walter and getting all of the cuddles! Amanda was so flexible and did a wonderful job keeping us updated about Riley’s stay with plenty of pictures. It was comforting to know he was in great hands during our weekend away.”
“Brittany was able to answer many questions and provide a meet and greet prior to watching Bean. I had already met with 5 other sitters who weren't the right fit. Brittany came prepared to also ask me questions to Better understand how to best care for Bean. Lima Bean had a great stay even with thunderstorms present which causes her the most anxiety. She was spoiled and even came home with a cute Bandana. Brittany understood how important it was for me to receive multiple updates a day that encompassed pictures. This eased my mind that she was doing well. I would definitely recommend Brittany due to her pet knowledge and friendly personality.”
“Our Dixie had a wonderful stay with Shania and her family. We were sent pictures and updates during Dixie’s stay. She was well taken care of and we will definitely be planning another stay with Shania.”

“Teona & Louelyn were great! Seven had a fantastic time with them! He was super happy and energetic when we received him back and is now sound asleep! We loved getting daily pictures and updates on him!”
“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!”
“We boarded our cockapoo with Jared for 6 nights. Our dog loves people and is very interactive and playful, with high energy, so we wanted a sitter who would be good with him.

We would highly recommend Jared and will book another stay for Griffin in the future.”

“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!”

About: Animals have always been a constant part of my life. I grew up in a home where there were always dogs and cats around, caring for them wasn’t just a responsibility, it was part of daily life. Over the years, I have personally raised and cared for three dogs of my own, each with different personalities and needs, which taught me patience, structure, and how to connect with animals on an individual level. Most recently, I adopted another dog into the family, adding even more joy and playful to the house. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I have experienced it all training, playtime, feeding routines, crate care, walks, and of course, lots of cuddles. Whether your pet is shy or social, active or relaxed, we understand how to make them feel safe, loved, and at home. I have a partner who has been pet sitting for her friends and co-workers last 4 years. I work at shipyard, but my work is pretty flexible that I can check out our dogs or any other pet frequently to make sure they receive enough attention love and most importantly care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I provide a calm and secure environment where dogs can relax and be themselves. I have a fully fenced big yard for safe outdoor play, and I supervise all interactions to make sure everyone is happy and comfortable. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible — from feeding schedules to crate preferences and bedtime habits — so they feel right at home. I never use harsh corrections; instead, I rely on positive reinforcement, patience, and gentle guidance. I also keep my home clean, pet-proofed, and free of anything unsafe. Whether your dog is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, we make sure they always feel safe, respect. I will keep sending regular updates and pictures or videos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands
“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.
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: Most of my experience was mostly personal with the numerous animals I had when I was growing up. But I also have experience with other friends or families' animals. During that, I have taken care of the dietary needs of pit bulls to Dachsund. I am currently a student meaning I can have more time taking care of your animals as I only will have homework and no job I have gates all around my house to avoid certain rooms to ensure no animals gets in anything. I will also ensure safety on walks
“Highly recommend!! Isabelle was very communicative and took care of what we needed for our 2 cats— especially during such a busy holiday! We are super grateful for the care she provided to our pets while we were away and we will definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“Trinity is awesome. She took care of my babies while I was on vacation for a week. She was on time and made sure they were well taken care of. Duke and Mustard love her. We had a tragedy while I was gone and she stepped in without hesitation and helped out with my Duke. I was so thankful and grateful that I was able to find her on the River app. I will definitely book her through Rover from now on.”
“Alyssa sent awesome pictures and loved on my furball! She was communicative, punctual, and professional. I definitely recommend booking with her if you want someone who genuinely loves animals to take care of your pet!”
“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: 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.

“Our Kona's Day Care is coming along quite nicely with Maggie and her family. He is getting to know her children and small dog. We look forward to leaving Kona with Maggie for a few nights later this month. We think it is a good fit and that he will be happy which is very important to us. Thank you Maggie for taking good care of our boy. Mike and Kay Chase”

“I could rave about how absolutely amazing Samantha was with my Khaleesi for hours, but I’ll keep it short for reading purposes. My dog Khaleesi is a high anxiety dog and does not do well with strangers and typically hides from them. Samantha had her during the day for 3 days, and from day 1 Khaleesi took right to her. It did take some warming up time, but Samantha kept me very updated and sent pictures throughout the day. By the end of the 3 days, Khaleesi was walking into Samantha’s house without hesitation and didn’t even turn around to look at me. Samantha is incredible and I highly recommend her!!!!”
“My husband and I were in town on vacation with our dog and she was having separation anxiety when we would leave her alone. So we booked with Sandra & she did awesome. Thank you so much for making our date night relaxing and not worrying about Kona. I would highly recommend Sandra. She was very nice and welcoming into her home and the neighborhood was nice. Thank you again!”
“We had a great experience with Qasheedra. From the moment we met, she and her family were warm, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. She took the time to understand my dogs’ needs and routine, which really put me at ease. My dog came back happy, relaxed, and well cared for — I couldn’t ask for more. I’ll definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!”
“My pups loved their visit with Shawna. She sent lots of pics so we could see how they spent the day, which was much appreciated. We will definitely bring the dogs to her again!”

About: I am going to treat your dog like my own if not better. I have two dogs Bailey and Princess who were rescue dogs. Bailey was mean and and could not wear a collar. Princess was malnurished and skin issues. Now both dogs are heathly, friendly. It amazes me how much they have grown. They would love guests and enjoy play time. All i ask is that u tell me your babies schedule and likes and dislikes. I have fenced yard where your dogs can run around play freely and I take dogs to parks and trails. Plenty of treats, and playtime, and love. If you like i can come to your home so your fur babies can feel more comfortable. Home away from home is how it should be. I do pet sit/ Rover on a part-time basis that's why my rates are lower than most.
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.

“My dogs are usually very upset when I drop them off at the sitters', but not this time! My dogs were happy to see Omaira & Isaac again, and I was so happy to see this! They also went out of their way to make sure that my babies had their wet food, which they could tell I forgot to bring - such attention to detail, they really don't miss a beat! Thanks again guys!”
“Our dog chief was in the best of hands with Scott and Lyra! They loved on him like he was their own and we had so much peace of mind with him at their home. When we picked him up, he was actually sad to leave ! That’s some pretty high praise from a dog right there. Thanks guys - you are the absolute best !”
“Rachel was great with Aspen. Her dogs and Aspen became fast friends very quickly. I received so many pictures it was delightful! When I ran out of time to bring Aspen to her, she was out not so far away and picked her up. Then was headed my way anyway, so returned her after I returned. Aspen will be very happy to go back as needed.”
“Three visits in, and Mrs. Crystal continues to exceed our expectations. She’s attentive, consistent, and truly understands Jaxon’s needs. We always receive thoughtful updates, and Jaxon comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which says everything. It gives us real peace of mind knowing he’s with her on a staycation lol😃 So grateful we found her on Rover, highly recommend! Thank you ❤️”
“Riley had the best time over the weekend playing with Walter and getting all of the cuddles! Amanda was so flexible and did a wonderful job keeping us updated about Riley’s stay with plenty of pictures. It was comforting to know he was in great hands during our weekend away.”
“Brittany was able to answer many questions and provide a meet and greet prior to watching Bean. I had already met with 5 other sitters who weren't the right fit. Brittany came prepared to also ask me questions to Better understand how to best care for Bean. Lima Bean had a great stay even with thunderstorms present which causes her the most anxiety. She was spoiled and even came home with a cute Bandana. Brittany understood how important it was for me to receive multiple updates a day that encompassed pictures. This eased my mind that she was doing well. I would definitely recommend Brittany due to her pet knowledge and friendly personality.”
“Our Dixie had a wonderful stay with Shania and her family. We were sent pictures and updates during Dixie’s stay. She was well taken care of and we will definitely be planning another stay with Shania.”

I make sure the dogs are going outside atleast every two hours insuring the have there energy out and not missing any potty breaks man
“Fantastic stay. He loves being with Stephanie so much and has such a great time with Callie; I hate to bring him home. His photos sent at least daily show him relaxed and happy. We are giving him daycare there weekly for his "Christmas present".”
“Teona & Louelyn were great! Seven had a fantastic time with them! He was super happy and energetic when we received him back and is now sound asleep! We loved getting daily pictures and updates on him!”
“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!”
“We boarded our cockapoo with Jared for 6 nights. Our dog loves people and is very interactive and playful, with high energy, so we wanted a sitter who would be good with him. Jared turned out to be a good match. He was easy going and attentive to Griffin’s needs. Jared communicated with us well and sent pictures of Griffin almost daily to let us know how he was doing. We would highly recommend Jared and will book another stay for Griffin in the future.”
“Emily was amazing with my cat Juno! She was flexible with scheduling and helped me get Juno into her kennel (easier said than done). Emily also made sure Juno was well fed and gave me an update on how she did during her stay. As a new cat dad, I really appreciated how friendly Emily was!”
“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”
“Ms. Mary is absolutely wonderful. This was our 2nd time dropping off our elderly dog and both times when we picked him up, he was in no hurry to leave. It is very obvious that our dog enjoys his time at Ms. Mary's home and is always well taken care of. Ms. Mary responds to texts promptly was so understanding whenever we had delays. You can tell how much she adores all canines. We are grateful to have connected with Ms. Mary! We have met 5 other Rover sitters in Virginia - Ms. Mary is our favorite, we will only seek her from now on ♡”
“Cheyanne did a great job of taking care of Betty White while we were on vacation! She sent pictures on a daily basis to show us how she was doing and also gave her a couple of baths while she was there because she got muddy in the backyard. She was also very kind and bought her a new dog bed because the one that we sent got very muddy one day.”
“Megan was amazing I recently boarded my rescue Prince for the first time, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Megan took such amazing care of Prince during his two-night stay. She went above and beyond—sending me some of the best photos and videos I’ve ever had of him, including clips of him playing and socializing with larger dogs (which was a first for him!). It meant so much to see him having that kind of fun and confidence. Megan also kept me updated with daily “doggy report cards” and personalized notes, which were such a thoughtful touch. When I picked him up, it was clear he had an incredible time—he was almost sad to leave! He even made a new best friend with her dog, Kava. I’m so grateful for the care and attention Megan gave, and I will absolutely be booking with her again. Truly a 5-star experience from start to finish!”
“Jackie was awesome!! This is the second time we left our babies with her. The babies were taken care of very well and enjoyed themselves while in her care. Jackie kept us up to date on how the babies were doing and sent several pictures that put us at ease and let us enjoy ourselves knowing that they were having a good time. Would definitely highly recommend Jackie, and we will definitely hire her again.”
“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 ❤️”
