“Kurt took great care of Pi. They took lots of walks and Pi seemed totally comfortable in the pictures. Kurt was flexible on the pickup schedule when our travel plans failed. I will definitely book with Kurt again.”

“This was my first time using Rover and the first time leaving my dog with someone other than my parents. Sydney was very responsive and easy to work with. My dog seemed like she had a great time and was well cared for.”


“The experience was fine. I select that I want updates and pictures and didn’t receive any. It seemed more like a boarding facility than pet sitting in a homey environment which is what our cats are used to. It was just a different experience than what we had experienced before and was a last minute alternative to our usual sitter. The only thing I was weary of was the extending service fee for extending an extra night , if I had just booked the two nights the fee wouldn’t have been applied. Definitely efficiently run and the dogs on property are a plus . Very professional.”

“Jessie did an amazing job caring for our shy fur baby! She sent us texts and pictures with updates. We even got a report card on Maggie when we picked her up and a treat bag ! Very thoughtful and sweet ❤️ Jessie’s dogs welcomed Maggie to their pack… Lacee and Bella are super sweet , well behaved and helped our dog with her shyness and nervousness. Maggie was happy to see us when we picked her up, but I don’t think she wanted to leave her new friends. I highly recommend Jessie and we will definitely use her again!”

“Amanda was great. My pets can be a little nervous but they warmed up to her quickly. She sent daily check in’s so I knew they were doing well when I was away. I would definitely book her again.”

“Linda and David are amazing. They took a great care of my dog. They kept me updated, sent pictures every day, were super quick to respond to messages, accommodate to our delay to return from our trip, and were very nice and kind. I will use them again.”

“Always responsive. Knowledgeable about animals. Her pup is now our pups new best friend. Our pup runs to her door when he gets out of the truck. When that happens you know she is good to them <3”

“Veronica has been so great with Sam multiple times and Sam loves hanging out with her, her family, and her friendly dogs ... plus he comes back happy, and tired from all the playtime which is great, too :)”

“Vanda was amazing. She took our request on short notice, she communicated really well, and she sent us pictures of our girls while we were gone. They seemed very happy when we picked them up! Thank you Vanda! Would definitely book with her again.”

“Holly took such excellent care of our Boo! She’s a true dog whisperer and loves each dog like her own. We were anxious about leaving our puppy for the first time overnight, but Holly loved on her and spoiled her and made us feel at ease while we were away. We would definitely trust Boo’s care to Holly any time and recommend her highly! We were so lucky to have found such a loving and caring sitter. Thank you, Holly!”

“I would definitely recommend Claire for petsitting. She friendly and accommodating, and our dog seemed very well cared for. Our only problem was finding the house because the address sent to us through Rover was not correct, but hopefully that has been fixed.”

“Courtney & Kameron took great care of Barkley while I was away. He went on lots of walks and enjoyed all the extra attention. Courtney sent lots of pic throughout the weekend. Will definitely use them again!!!”

“Amari was very accommodating for a last minute booking, kept me updated with lots of pictures and reassured me that my dog was doing great! Would definitely book with her again in the future.”

About: I have 3 dogs at home in CLT, NC. All of my friends say I treat them like my babies. I miss them so much when I am at school and would love to give your puppy some snuggles while you are away! I have 1 class a day so I will be gone max 2 hours and I LOVEEE walks so they will be walked at least 2 miles everyday if able! I can easily crate your dog if preferred. I live in an apartment but live super close to grassy areas for when they need to use the restroom. I have 3 other roommate's who all have dogs at home and one of us is usually always home!
“1st time using Rover App & 1st time getting a new face for our sweet ol pup 🐶 Rover is streamlined, user-friendly, and fast responses from potential sitters! Nancye did a Superb job taking care of our sweet boy! So appreciative of her loving care while we were out of town! Thank you Nancye!! 💜”

“We had to book with Kayla pretty much as last minute as you could get. Our original Rover didn’t work out and we needed to find somewhere quick. Kayla was super communicative and easy going! Her other dogs are all so sweet and well trained. It was a great socialization experience for our dog. She sent us so many videos and pictures throughout the booking. We loved Kayla and would recommend her 1000x over”

“Katie took care of our cats while we were gone for two weeks. She did an excellent job and is very responsible with good communication. We plan to use her again in the future and would highly recommend her.”

About: Hello, my name is Lucas and I have had many different kinds of cats and dogs my whole life. I currently have 2 cats and 1 dog who I love to take care of the best I can, and love meeting new pets. I am currently enrolled in Radford University, and love taking care of pets in my time off.

I will go above and beyond any task I am given, and make sure it is done meticulously how the client has given me the instructions.

“Amanda always does a WONDERFUL job!! Blue, my cat, is always in good hands with her. She checks his food, water fountain, and gives him his daily churu judt as asked and also plays with him for me! Blue is always a happy, healthy, and safe cat when I return!”


“Phoenix was an amazing sitter for my cat Louie! She was communicative and polite, as well as having a calm & down to earth presence. I felt confident Louie was safe under her care while i was gone for the week! 😊”


“We are so amazed by the care that Rita provided our boys when we were away. We knew from our initial meeting that she offers her services because she loves pets so much. We will definitely only hire her for our future needs and we recommend her without reservation!”

About: I’ve owned a black Labrador(Anna) for over 13 years, she has not once had any sort of health issue as I’ve feed her well, and kept her up to date on vet visits. I’m caring, compassionate, and smart and versatile enough to be calm in any situation that may arise. I assure you that I will treat your pet as if it were my own. This allows me the freedom to stay focused on your pet and be there when other folks have to leave. If a situation ever does arrive my strength are communication so you can rest assured I will be in constant contact, which as a pet owner for an older girl myself id expect from others if I left her in their care. If the pet requires adequate exercise I have no problem going on a long walk with them and the space is pet friendly as my dog (Anna) is there. In your home, I can assure you that my experience will allow me to provide the best care for your loved ones.

“Jennifer did wonderfully with my two cats and was such a gem for feeding them over the holidays! She made sure they were well taken care of and stayed to play with them and give them treats, which I really appreciated. Would definitely book again!”


About: My first cat came from Santa when I was 5 years old, and I have loved cats ever since. I have always had multiple cats in my household, and have plenty of experience in other settings as well (vet offices, shelters, fear free handling, pet sitting, etc).

About: Although I never owned a cat because my mom is allergic and my landlord does not allow them, I have always adored cats. I started cat sitting during COVID for a family friend. I am responsible when it comes to feeding and litter box care, and I love to play with cats. Cuddly cats are my favorite, but I respect the space of cats who prefer to be left alone.

About: I adore cats! Growing up a kitten was the first thing I ever asked my parents for. I have taken care of indoor, outdoor, and barn cats. I also have experience with diabetic cats as my cat Leo is diabetic. He receives regular doses of insulin, and gets his blood sugar checked regularly.

About: I’ve had cats as pets since I was very little so I have a lot of experience caring for them. I currently have two cats of my own, Sargent Pepper and Tom. I worked as a dog walker in California for a few years and did overnight sits that also involved taking care of owner’s cats. I’m very much a cat person and love being around them!

About: Cats have always been a big part of my life, and I currently have 3 of my own! I understand that every cat has a different personality—some want lots of attention and playtime, while others prefer to take things at their own pace. With 2 years of professional pet-sitting experience, I’m comfortable caring for cats with different routines and needs. I’m happy to provide litter box cleaning, medication, enrichment, and plenty of love and attention. I’ll also follow any special instructions you provide to help keep your cat comfortable and maintain their normal routine. My goal is to make your cat feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. 🐱❤️

About: I have had and cared for cats my whole life! My family currently has 4 cats. I took Veterinary Science 1 & 2 at New Horizons, so I have some more professional hands on experience as well! I received a certification for basic veterinary methods through my New Horizons class! I also know basic pet first aid!

About: We’re a husband-and-wife team with a lifelong love for animals! We’ve both grown up surrounded by dogs and cats, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of our lives. Over the years, we’ve also been the go-to pet sitters for family and friends, caring for their dogs and cats and treating them just like members of our own family. We currently have two pups of our own who are very loved (and maybe a little spoiled! 😂), so we completely understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Leaving your furry family members with someone new can be nerve-racking, and we want you to feel confident that they’re in loving, capable hands. Whether your pet loves walks and playtime, couch cuddles and belly rubs, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, we’re happy to make them feel right at home. We’ll treat your pets the way we’d want someone to treat ours—with lots of love, patience, attention, and plenty of updates for you along the way! We both work full time jobs, but we are able to accommodate early, mid day, and evening/night visits within reason and our personal schedules. If we can make it work, we will definitely do anything to be there for your fur babies! We have plenty of experience with animals in fenced in yards and on leashes. We will ensure we watch them, keep them safe, and give them ample amount of outside and play time.
“Great communication and flexible with drop in times. I can tell she loves animals and truly cared about my dog while I was away. I would definitely ask her to pet sit again!”

“Holly is the BEST. Tuesdays are now Poncho's (and my) favorite day of the week. He has the time of his life running around the yard and playing with other pups, and is exhausted by the time I pick him up- which every puppy owner knows is the BEST feeling ever. Holly is so communicative, sends the cutest pics, and I always know Poncho is safe and spoiled with her. You need to book with her!”

About: I'm diligent, conscientious, and careful when caring for dogs. I have a large fenced yard, and I'm home nearly all day, every day, so your pet will have plenty of attention, supervision, and space to play and feel safe. I have a large fenced yard and am home all day, most every day, so I’m free to focus fully on your pet’s needs and give you frequent updates as requested. I'm diligent, conscientious, and careful with dogs. I have a large fenced yard and am home most of the time, so your pet gets plenty of attention and care. I can easily crate your dog if needed for safety or routine.
About: I am a veterinarian who has dedicated her life to caring for animals. I have worked with animals from a young age, including many hours working in vet offices in high school leading up to college and vet school (became a licensed vet in 2020). I am quite comfortable with caring for animals who need medications administered, or more intense levels of care while their owners are away. Working with animals brings me joy and peace, and making sure they are happy and well cared for is my life mission. I believe in fear free handling, and I am happy to work with animals who do not trust unknown people. I am a licensed veterinarian but I am currently in grad school so I am very flexible. I can be home all day if needed, and can provide close supervision. I have a 3 year old female German Shepherd (very friendly!) and cats (mostly outdoor). I have the ability to keep my dog separate if needed but she loves playing with other dogs! I have a full sized truck and the ability to transport animals with me safely. I have 2.5 acres of fenced land for dogs to run and play as well as a small fenced in section adjacent to the house. A pet door offers come and go access to the house. I am free to drop in during the week or board animals for extended periods, and if your animal needs medications administered as part of their care I am very capable. I am comfortable handling large dogs (I have a lot of practice in my line of work as a veterinarian). I am also comfortable with young animals, cats, older animals, and any animal requiring high levels of care.

“Jessie always does a great job taking care of our sweet, but shy fur baby! We appreciate the pictures and updates she regularly sends us. It makes our hearts happy knowing that our dog is getting wonderful care and lots of love when we’re away!”

“Overall, they are AMAZING dog sitters and do a great job! I was given tons of pictures of my Auggie having a great weekend and I was very nervous to leave him for the first time. They did a great job instilling good habits in my puppy while having him enjoy his weekend with completely new people. I’m extremely satisfied and will be using them again!!”

“I absolutely love Linda and David. They do an amazing job every single time. They take such great care of my dog and always make sure to send me pictures, which gives me so much peace of mind. My dog is always so excited when he sees them — that alone tells me how well they treat him. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and truly wonderful sitter!”

About: I’ve spent the past 3 years volunteering with shelter dogs that were reactive, nervous, high energy, sensitive, untrained, and everything in between. My sister and I would take shelter dogs out for the day and bring them to the beach, on long walks, car rides, basically just let them have a full day outside of the shelter. That experience taught me a completely different level of dog care than I was used to from simply caring for my grandmother’s dog, Lulu. I learned how to recognize when a dog is uncomfortable, when to give them space, and how to work with their individual boundaries instead. Shelter dogs taught me that no two dogs are the same, and caring for them isn’t something to take lightly. I’ve also volunteered at the Staten Island Zoo for 2 years and have had animals around me my entire life. My pets back home in New York include my 8 year old cat Nemo, a blue tongued skink, bearded dragon, gecko, gerbils, tortoise, pixie frog, and more. My sister and I grew up going to animal expos, so I’ve had experience being around and caring for many different kinds of animals. Because of that, I’m very comfortable around animals, but I also know that being comfortable doesn’t mean ignoring their boundaries. I want to know their routine, personality, triggers, habits, favorite things, and anything else that helps them feel safe and comfortable. The more I know about your pet, the better I can care for them! I’m a Virginia Tech student with a pretty open class schedule. Classes usually take up only about two hours of my day, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I’m happy to take dogs on long walks and give them lots of time outside if that’s what they enjoy. When we’re home, they’ll have my attention too, whether they want to play, relax together, or just have someone nearby. I live at The Hub, which is a pet friendly community with its own dog park and plenty of outdoor spaces for walks and potty breaks. I’d only use the dog park if it’s empty. I’m also happy to skip it completely if that’s what you prefer! I’d follow whatever routine your dog is already used to and keep things as normal and comfortable for them as possible while they’re with me!

“My dog Max appeared to have a wonderful time at Richard and Kelly’s. It’s awesome to have found a place close to work and home to take him for daycare :) 100% going again !!”

“5 Stars for sure. I’ve never met Madison nor has my 11 week Labrador puppy but she showed such enthusiasm and care for my pup. Normally I try to be at home as much as possible but since today was such a busy day I needed someone close and with good reviews. She tracked the day very well and I could tell by how tired my puppy was that he had an awesome day of playing.”

“Nancy’s was great! We were in town for graduation and needed a pet sitter for a few hours to attend the ceremony. Nancy’s was very attentive and excited to take care of Chai. She was in great hands and I highly recommend her to anybody who wants extra special treatment for their pup.”

“Emily was amazing with my dog, Butters! She had so much fun that she didn’t even want to come home! Emily sent pictures and updates throughout the stay, which I really appreciated. It was clear that Butters was in great hands the entire time. Emily is such a caring and attentive sitter, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take great care of their pup!”

“Deann was wonderful! We were a last minute booking and she could not have been more flexible or more gracious! Our puppy had a great afternoon. We will definitely be return customers!”


About: I've owned and taken care of all kinds of dogs, cats, and other animals from a very young age. Ive pet sat for many neighbors and relatives since I was 10, where I was responsible for feeding, walking, bathing, giving medicine, etc. I have great experience with dogs that are anxious, nervous, or shy, as my rescue dog and many pets i’ve looked after are like this. I also have experience giving pets medicine or any other special care they may need in their time with me. Most importantly, I love animals more than anything and I can promise a caring and safe home for your pet!! I’m a student at virginia tech with a very open class scheduel! I have 1-2 short classes a day where im gone for only an hour. Other than those classes, Im free all week and on the weekends to make sure your pet has constant care! I live in an apartment with an enclosed dog park less than a minute walk away, and along with that, my apartment is safe, secure, and kept very clean making it a great environment for any pet. When walking the dog, I prioritize safety with keeping the dog close to me at all times.
About: I have always grown up around pets around the house! I am currently at college and am missing being around animals. I am always available to hang out, walk, play, or just chill with a pet. I have dealt with my goldendoodle for 9 years and it is the best thing that has happened to me. I am a college student and have 2 classes everyday which are each 1 hour. Therefore, I have a lot of flexibility before, in between, and after classes. I exercise daily so walking/playing with a dog fit perfectly in my schedule. At my home I live with 3 other girls who also love pets so having pets in our place is no problem! We have a dog park right down the road and also plenty of trails near me where I can them on walks.
About: I have been pet sitting as a side job for 4 years now, but my passion for animals has been a lifelong journey. From a young age, I’ve been surrounded by pets, and pet sitting has allowed me to further channel my love and care for animals. My experience spans a variety of pets, with a particular focus on caring for large breed dogs during my time in Australia. Whether tending to puppies or elderly pets, I approach each responsibility with the utmost dedication and a deep understanding of their unique needs. I have flexible availability as I focus only on my studies at the moment I don't have a side job, allowing me to offer reliable pet care. I treat each pet like they’re part of my family, whether they’re staying in my home or theirs. I make sure to stick to their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. This includes playtime, walks, meals, and grooming as needed. I also keep in touch with the pet’s owner to provide regular updates and make sure everything is going smoothly. Above all, I strive to create a loving, safe environment where pets can feel at ease while their owners are away

About: I’ve taken care of 3 rescue dogs and a rescue cat. I love learning new dogs and cats and to see what kind of personality each one has. I’ve cared for animals for 7 years. I’m always on time and very dependable. I am currently a stay at home wife so I have plenty of time to play and interact with your pups. Whatever you need I’m available to assist you. I have a fenced in large kennel area where pups can run and play. For those that are trained to run and play and come back to my commands these dogs will have 6 acres to run and play. There’s plenty of space for your pups to run and play. I am available to take care of your pets as a house sitter or to do drop in visits multiple times a day. Whatever your needs may be I assure you I’ll be able to accommodate you.

“Katie has been great with Indie, communicates very well, and is on time and flexible with our dynamic schedule needs so we are thankful to have found her and plan on making her our regular walker for the foreseeable future.”

About: I have experience with both domestic and exotic pet sitting and care. I have trained ferrets, dogs, and cats for both family and friends. I treat everyone's pets as if they were my own. I'm currently working full-time, 12pm - 8pm Monday - Friday. I am available to meet your pets needs on Saturdays and Sundays. I am flexible if additional times may be needed outside of that; just ask. I can provide individual care, time, attention, and any other additional needs for your pet. I'm extremely active, so I love going to the park, walking, jogging, and tossing toys around. I have lots of energy to give your pet.
About: Hi, I’m Jennifer! I am 25 years old. With extensive experience caring for a diverse range of animals—including puppies, chickens, cats, kittens, cows, and animals with medical conditions—I bring a compassionate and knowledgeable approach to pet sitting. An LSU graduate with a full-time job, I am always willing to accommodate scheduling conflicts. My own pets include a rescued kitten, an emotional support dog, and a Sheltie I've raised from birth. I'm committed to providing excellent care tailored to each pet's needs. Thank you for considering me to be your sitter, if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me! I am available to care for your babies! Currently I work full time, 8-5, with weekends and holidays off. Thank you for considering me and please message me for any questions you may have. I always pay close attention to an animals body language and actions to make sure they are always safe and feeling okay! I would give your pet a great, comfortable environment as if they were my own. I wouldn’t want anyone doing less for mine, so why would I do less for someone else’s pet?
About: It may come as a surprise that I’ve never had a pet growing up, but that hasn’t stopped my love for animals. One thing I love about pet care is that each pet has there own personality. I’ve cared for lazy dogs, hyper dogs, mean dogs, social dogs, cats who believe we work for them and the cats who insist they’re dogs. I’ve definitely seen it all. One thing I’ve learned about pet care is that you must gain trust. Each dog has their own specific, unique needs that must be met. Whether it falls down to a few more bathroom breaks throughout the day or extra tender love and care, all needs will be met with your pet in my care. As far as tangible experience, I’ve accumulated years of experience working and volunteering at several clinics and hospitals. This has afforded me the opportunities to gain experience with medical care as well. I am a huge advocate for fitness and exercise for myself and pet, so I can guarantee your pet will get lots of exercise with me.
About: What sets me apart is my 2 years of professional pet-sitting experience with Prestige, along with being a lifelong animal lover. I have experience caring for a variety of pets and understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and individual needs. At home, I have 3 cats, a lizard, and fish, so I’m comfortable caring for more than just dogs and cats. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to the little details that help pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or simply some loving company, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry—or scaly—family members, and I’m committed to giving them the same care and attention I would give my own pets. 🐾❤️ I currently work full time in research at the vet school! I am most available before 9, after 5 and on weekends/ holidays. With ample notice I am also available to lunch time visits! When house sitting in a client's home, my goal is to keep your pets comfortable and maintain their normal routine while you're away. I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, litter box care, and any other special needs your pets may have. I also understand that I’m caring for your home as well as your pets. I keep things clean and tidy, follow your household instructions, and make sure your pets are safe and comfortable. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are being well cared for. Every visit will come with an update that includes ample pictures.

About: I take care of dogs, cats, and chickens at home and frequently dog sit for neighbors and friends. I am open to taking care of any breed and age cat or dog, and other species as well! I work part time, so I have lots of availability. I do not have a set schedule so I am very flexible with days and times. I am happy to follow any specific instructions to meet the individual needs of your pets and ensure they are as happy and comfortable as possible!

About: My family adopted a 10 month old rescue pup, Charlie, when I was 7 years old. For the 12 years that I got to spend with him he was my best friend. Although he was stronger than me the first few years of his life, I was still involved in his training and feeding care until I was big enough to take him out and walk him. Once I could handle him, I took him out, walked him, and helped give baths. As an adult, I have done multiple pet-sitting jobs for neighbors and family friends. I have taken care of dogs and cats of all ages. My job experience includes retail, landscaping, and food/bar service. Working late nights in downtown Blacksburg, I have become keen at cleaning up messes of all kinds. This summer, my schedule is wide open! I play pool a couple of nights a week, but that doesn't last for more than a few hours and I can always go late/leave early to get back to the pets. When the school year starts, I will schedule pet sitting around my class schedule. I am equipped to handle dogs of almost any size on a leash, and I love to play fetch in a yard/at the park. I can keep food and water bowls clean and full, I can crate dogs if needed, and I can keep a litter box clean!
“Thank you Ashley. Maisie was so much calmer after your long walk and plenty of attention. I love the pictures you took! Highly recommend for anyone in the area looking for trustworthy care.”

“Madison took care of both of our dogs while we were staying at Claytor Lake State Park. She came over twice during the day and even did a meet and greet the night before. She loves dogs and took great care of our Penny and Lucy. We would definitely use her again and would recommend her to anybody. One of our dogs is human-shy and she warmed up right away to Madison!”

About: I grew up with an Australian Shepherd, she was my best friend! Since then, I have been able to love two Mountain Feist dogs and then now have the following: a yellow lab (senior), beagle mix, shepherd mix, and a feist/bulldog mix (puppy). It’s a house full of love and dog hair! I have also helped care for family and friends' dogs when needed. There is nothing like the unconditional love you get from your four legged family member. I work as an independent contractor so my work hours vary. Typically I have some availability for drop in visits or walks Monday through Friday between 8:00am - 1:30pm. Our dogs are family. When I met my now husband, he had three dogs and I had one. Now that we are all under one roof, four legged family members actually outnumber the humans 4:3. We love some snuggles in this house (as evidenced in the photos) and our youngest pup keeps the others busy with her playfulness.
About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I recently graduated with my BSN in Animal Sciences, and have been working in the veterinary field since 2022. I am currently working as a full-time emergency veterinary assistant. I currently work full-time at an emergency veterinary hospital. I have plenty of time on my days off and after work to care for your pets! I would be very comfortable taking your furry friends for walks, crating them, or just hanging out! I love all animals, and am looking forward to caring for your furry friend!

“Kurt took great care of Pi. They took lots of walks and Pi seemed totally comfortable in the pictures. Kurt was flexible on the pickup schedule when our travel plans failed. I will definitely book with Kurt again.”

“This was my first time using Rover and the first time leaving my dog with someone other than my parents. Sydney was very responsive and easy to work with. My dog seemed like she had a great time and was well cared for.”


“The experience was fine. I select that I want updates and pictures and didn’t receive any. It seemed more like a boarding facility than pet sitting in a homey environment which is what our cats are used to. It was just a different experience than what we had experienced before and was a last minute alternative to our usual sitter. The only thing I was weary of was the extending service fee for extending an extra night , if I had just booked the two nights the fee wouldn’t have been applied. Definitely efficiently run and the dogs on property are a plus . Very professional.”

“Kennedy was extremely kind. Our dog Remi can be nervous and she quickly came around to Kennedy. Kennedy provided daily updates and was quick to respond. She was very flexible of our travel times and understanding. We look forward to having Kennedy watch Remi again”

“Jessie did an amazing job caring for our shy fur baby! She sent us texts and pictures with updates. We even got a report card on Maggie when we picked her up and a treat bag ! Very thoughtful and sweet ❤️ Jessie’s dogs welcomed Maggie to their pack… Lacee and Bella are super sweet , well behaved and helped our dog with her shyness and nervousness. Maggie was happy to see us when we picked her up, but I don’t think she wanted to leave her new friends. I highly recommend Jessie and we will definitely use her again!”

“Always responsive. Knowledgeable about animals. Her pup is now our pups new best friend. Our pup runs to her door when he gets out of the truck. When that happens you know she is good to them <3”

“Veronica has been so great with Sam multiple times and Sam loves hanging out with her, her family, and her friendly dogs ... plus he comes back happy, and tired from all the playtime which is great, too :)”

“Vanda was amazing. She took our request on short notice, she communicated really well, and she sent us pictures of our girls while we were gone. They seemed very happy when we picked them up! Thank you Vanda! Would definitely book with her again.”

“Holly took such excellent care of our Boo! She’s a true dog whisperer and loves each dog like her own. We were anxious about leaving our puppy for the first time overnight, but Holly loved on her and spoiled her and made us feel at ease while we were away. We would definitely trust Boo’s care to Holly any time and recommend her highly! We were so lucky to have found such a loving and caring sitter. Thank you, Holly!”

“I would definitely recommend Claire for petsitting. She friendly and accommodating, and our dog seemed very well cared for. Our only problem was finding the house because the address sent to us through Rover was not correct, but hopefully that has been fixed.”

“Courtney & Kameron took great care of Barkley while I was away. He went on lots of walks and enjoyed all the extra attention. Courtney sent lots of pic throughout the weekend. Will definitely use them again!!!”

“Amari was very accommodating for a last minute booking, kept me updated with lots of pictures and reassured me that my dog was doing great! Would definitely book with her again in the future.”

About: I have 3 dogs at home in CLT, NC. All of my friends say I treat them like my babies. I miss them so much when I am at school and would love to give your puppy some snuggles while you are away! I have 1 class a day so I will be gone max 2 hours and I LOVEEE walks so they will be walked at least 2 miles everyday if able! I can easily crate your dog if preferred. I live in an apartment but live super close to grassy areas for when they need to use the restroom. I have 3 other roommate's who all have dogs at home and one of us is usually always home!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have nearly 7 years of dog sitting experience starting in middle school. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities and I pride myself on being extremely attentive, reliable, and detail oriented with every pet. I have experience handling multiple dogs at once including caring for up to five dogs for 7+ days, so I’m very comfortable with both longer stays in higher-energy households. I treat every dog like my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I also provide consistent updates so you can feel confident and not ease while you’re away. I’m a student at Virginia Tech with a flexible schedule, typically having at most two classes a day. Outside of class, I spent most of my time at home, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. My routine makes it easy for me to incorporate walks, feeding, playtime, and check-in consistently. I’m able to adapt to each pets needs and schedule, whether that means early mornings, midday visits, or evening care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a pet friendly apartment with a fence dog area, so dogs have a safe place to get outside and play. I’m very attentive and make sure pets are always supervised and cared for based on their specific needs and routines. I also keep owners updated regularly so you always know how your pet is doing.
“We had to book with Kayla pretty much as last minute as you could get. Our original Rover didn’t work out and we needed to find somewhere quick. Kayla was super communicative and easy going! Her other dogs are all so sweet and well trained. It was a great socialization experience for our dog. She sent us so many videos and pictures throughout the booking. We loved Kayla and would recommend her 1000x over”

About: I am a stay at home Mom and would love to help other pet owners be at ease knowing their pets are being taken care of while you’re at work or out of town. Being at home allows me to be very flexible with the care you need. My family has both a dog and cat at home, so I’m familiar with the care needed for both. I’ve also cared for an elder dog before needing insulin administered. I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is very flexible to work with your needs! I’m happy to work with you! I have a large un-fenced yard surrounded by woods; supervised time outside only and on a leash unless you and I both are confident in obedience to come when called. I have a small dog at home who prefers a cuddle buddy over a play mate, but she is friendly with most dogs and loves cats! In the event I leave home I prefer crating until I get to know your pup.
