“Gunna had a great time and made himself at home with Jessica and her kids. He had a fun time playing in the large backyard and on his walks. Jessica was quick to respond, gave us daily updates, and above all was able to watch Gunna last minute.”
“I was scrambling to find dog boarding when my friend canceled on me at the last minute. I had no backup plan and actually thought I’d have to send my dog to a kennel for the week. Luckily, as I was looking up kennels, I found information on Rover. So this was my very first time using Rover and I was extremely nervous. Turns out, there was absolutely no reason for me to be. Rover is very easy to use and I was able to find Julie & Kenneth N’s information. After seeing/reading the positive reviews I made immediate plans to meet them and have them meet my Husky, Max. When Julie & Ken arrived, they were very friendly, easy to talk to and most importantly, they love dogs. I was able to book Max to stay with Julie & Ken for the entire week that we were on a family vacation. As promised, I got daily emails (with pictures) of how Max was doing and Julie even let me know how helpful Max was in the kitchen — by being watchful to ensure Julie didn’t drop anything while preparing lunch. I loved all of the text communications I received — Max was smiling in some of the pics. That put me at ease too. If you want top notch boarding for your dog, then I highly recommend this dog-loving duo. Your dog will be well taken care of and will be happy with Julie & Ken. In the future, whenever we need dog boarding, Julie & Ken will be my very first choice. I am sincerely grateful to them for their excellent care of Max.”
“Angela is the absolute best. She provided the best care and treated my dog like a king. My high energy dog came back so well behaved and incredibly well groomed, she treated him to spa days, made him amazing homemade health treats, stuck to his routine and provided me so many updates and pictures I was never left questioning his wellbeing. I almost don’t want to leave this review so I don’t have to fight for her care in the future. But she is honestly the best care giver. I don’t want anyone else watching my dog but angela at this point. 100/10. Thank you angela ❤️❤️”
“Brandy was great as always! 5 Stars is definitely not enough! I know I can count on her to give my pups the best care. Even during a short overnight, they get lots of love and activities. Thank you, Brandy!”
“Alexis was the best! We are transitioning from Boston Massachusetts to Hampton roads, and at the last minute I needed a sitter for 2 of my golden doodle boys, to move my remaining items to VA, and Alexis quickly responded and agree to Take my boyz. She took pictures and messaged me daily about much fun they were having. We definitely will utilize Alexis again! We found a sitter here in Hampton Roads! Yay!!”
“I could not have asked for a better dog sitter! From the very beginning, Shanae was professional, dependable, and incredibly caring with my dog. It was clear that she truly loves animals and treats them like family. I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My dog was happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time. Shanae went above and beyond to make sure all routines, feeding schedules, walks, and playtime were handled perfectly. When I returned home, it was obvious that my dog had been loved and cared for exceptionally well. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate dog sitter. I will absolutely be using her again in the future! Thanks again Shanae!”
“Tavonne was an incredible sitter for our Canelita! She gave us regular updates on how our little one settled into her new environment and sent pictures so we would see realtime how Canela made other furry friends. I highly recommend Tavonne’s services to put you at ease during your next out of town trip!”
“This family is awesome. They are well worth the money they provided so much love and support from my Rottweiler. He had such a good time and he enjoyed himself. I recommend this family to anyone that needs a pet that are because they are out of this world truly five star.”
“Krystal was the top recommendation for our area and I didn’t hesitate to look further into booking with her. My big boy is a handful and I was happy to hear that he got along great with her dogs. She kept me updated with how he was doing and sending photos throughout his stay. We will definitely be using her again for our next trip out of town. She was a dream to work with. Thank you so much, Krystal!”
“She is an amazing person. She is very responsible, you can get quick responses, and she frequently sends photos. I felt completely at ease and trusted her fully while my dog was with them. Thank you so much — we hope to see you again very soon.”
“Cassandra was the best dog sitter we have had. She took such great care of our sweet Bella. She is amazing with communication, always letting me know how Bella was doing. One amazing touch was she did a painting of our sweet pup that passed away right before our trip. Beautiful and so incredible.”
“No words can express how grateful I am with Nieshea for taking such good care of Maya and Nemo, kept me informed at all times with videos and pictures. I will Definitely leave my babies on her hands on future dates.”
“Michelle was amazing! She kept me well updated on my pup and made sure he have plenty of interaction. Definitely recommend her and her family to watch over your fur babies while on vacation.”
“I’ve never used this app before and was a little nervous about it but Janel made it a great experience. She sent me pictures of my dog everyday to show me he was alright and having fun. My dog must’ve really had a great time because he was watching her go as we were leaving ? will definitely board with Janel again if needed”
“Constance is a really special person. Great communicator, kind and open. She was open to do a meet and greet before Teddys actual staycation and allowed us to see her home and meet her pets to make sure everyone gets along. Once we dropped Teddy off she sent pictures every day! Communicated very clearly and kept me informed of Teddys well being. She was accommodating when we had little curve balls thrown at us and we have absolutely no complaints at all. Your fur babies will be in good hands with Constance! We will be booking again for our next vacation.”
“Chris and his fiancée were kind and loving to Lola from the start. They were communicative throughout her stay. Sending texts and pics of the fun she had in their fenced in backyard. Thanks for taking care of my fur baby!”

“Laurelyn went above and beyond for our kitties! She was very communicative and tidy. Very thankful for her looking in on our cats and giving them some attention over the holidays. Thanks so much!”
“Felicitas is truly exceptional. My cat Mina is quite spoiled and not very sociable, which is common for many domesticated cats. Her mother was feral, and Mina is deeply bonded to me, so she can be wary of others. While some might find this behavior off-putting, Felicitas was patient, attentive, and handled Mina with complete professionalism. From the moment I met her, I knew she was the right sitter for us. She has a genuinely kind spirit, and it’s immediately clear how much she loves animals. Felicitas is without a doubt one of the best pet sitters on Rover. If you choose someone else, your pet will miss a rare opportunity to be truly loved and cared for, and you’ll miss out on the same peace of mind I had while away.”
“Danielle did an amazing job watching my fur babies!! I was super nervous leaving them but she always responded to me when I had a question or just needed to let her know something! I will be using her again in the future!”
“Second time with her and she's stellar! Very communicative and treated my cats very well, always updating me on how they were and if there were any problems. Highly recommend :)”
“I have never seen our sassy bird take to someone as quickly as Ashley, he was putty in her hands when most of my family still can’t pick him up! She was extremely good about communicating with us which put us at ease knowing he was getting great care when we were far away. She kept his cage tidy and we could tell in the pictures how much he was enjoying his visits. We can’t recommend her enough and would hire her again in a heartbeat!”
About: Hi! I've worked with a lot of different sizes and breeds, as well as different temperaments when it comes to dogs and cats. I can also administer medications and take care of exotic fish or other animals if needed. A little bit about me: I am a very calm, patient, and dependable person with 5 lovely dogs between my husband and I( I had 3 and he had 2 when we met!). I’m a former RN currently at home while finishing up my Doctorate. I would love to get back in to walking, drop-in visits, and recently decided to try out out doggy daycare. We have a nice big backyard! I am open to learning and providing your pup with any accommodations that they may need during my visits and/or their stay. I understand how important it is to make sure they feel safe and loved. Feel free to ask any questions. I look forward to working with you! *I do have a toddler at home most days, so it is important that your dog is friendly with children when considering doggy day care. She will not join me for drop on visits or walks! I do my best to provide service at the times requested. I am very dependable, however I may suggest an alternate time if there is a conflict. I will make it work! I am very organized and respectful when making a visit to a pet parents home. I also make sure doors are locked and light are off when I leave.
About: I’m currently a cat mom to my black cat, Spellcaster, and have experience caring for cats with all kinds of personalities and moods! I truly love making cats feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away 🖤
“Mary was great! She’s awesome at communicating and such a reliable pet sitter. She sent me so many picture updates of my ferret while I was gone. The report card is so stickin cute! She followed all of my directions of what needed to be done and exceeded expectations. Definitely recommend! Will have her watch my weasel again”
“Kim is absolutely the best choice we could have made for selecting a pet sitter!! She went above and beyond watching our furbbaies for us while we were away! She sent daily notes, texts and pictures informing me how everyone was. I couldn't list anything negative about her sweet soul and only suggest you give her a try and realize why she is perfect for sitting dor you pets!!”
“Kat was amazing! She helped us with a last minute trip and was super accommodating with our scrambled planning. She took care of our kitty super well. Would definitely recommend her!”
“This was our first time using Rover or trusting anyone other than family with our pets. Shelbie immediately made us feel at ease with how attentive, professional and friendly she was with us and our pets. She was on top of everything and gave our pets quality care and love while we were gone! She provided thoughtful updates and helped our pets feel comfortable and come out of their shells. For the first time ever we were able to take a vacation and have peace of mind. I highly recommend her as a sitter!!”
“My children can’t even give this cat his insulin! Dalenne is amazing. I feel blessed to have found her. Hoping she can help my next trip! Thanks for asking Beth Pierce”
“Ellen went above and beyond. When I had to make a change to the care plan last minute she didn't hesitate to help care for my babies. We love her so much and are so blessed to hang her as a cat sitter.”
“Ezgi is kind, responsible, and took great care of my cat, Fable, while we were out of town on short notice! She left my home clean, Fable happy and well-cared for, and Ezgi was responsive and easy to communicate with. I’d recommend her :)”
About: I’m currently active duty Air Force, newly stationed in Hampton, VA. Since I can’t have pets in the dorms, caring for yours is the next best thing and honestly, it makes my day every time I get to spend time with animals. Before moving here, I volunteered for several years at nonprofit rescues that specialize in disabled and special-needs animals. My responsibilities included feeding, bathing, cleaning kennels and litter boxes, refreshing bedding, and making sure each animal got individual attention and affection. I also assisted with basic grooming, gentle handling for nervous pets, and light training reinforcement during play or walks. Since moving to Virginia, I’ve been volunteering at The Cat Corner in Hampton, where I work exclusively with cats. I help with feeding, litter changes, sanitizing enclosures, and socializing cats to prepare them for adoption. It’s helped me become especially good at reading feline body language and handling shy or anxious cats. I also have experience with house sitting, dog sitting, cat sitting, and snake sitting, so I’m very comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, going for long walks, keeping up with playtime, or sending regular photo updates. I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their people are away. When I’m not working or volunteering, I love spending time outdoors, reading, cooking, going to the gym, and exploring Virginia. I’m also working toward becoming a lawyer while continuing my military career and of course, always finding ways to stay close to animals and help those in need. I’d love to help care for your pets like they’re my own with patience, reliability, flexibility, and plenty of love.

“Ive used Brandys daycare services for Loki 2 days a week for about 5 weeks now. She is very attentive, loves dogs, and caring towards him. He gets so excited to see her and looks so comfortable around her family. She gives physical daily report cards with the potty schedule, behavior, feedings, comments and recommendations. She sends photos throughout the day. Her family enjoys having him around and I love seeing him play with her children. I had a family emergency one weekend and she had no problem keeping him for me until I got back in town. That was super huge because she does have a family, it was last minute, and a big ask. Definitely would recommend her services.”
About: I have been caring for dogs since 2011 and have owned a variety of breeds, including Yorkies, Beagles, and German Shepherds. My dogs have always been beloved family members who lived long, happy lives. I understand the importance of dependable, loving care and will treat your pet with the same attention, patience, and affection I give my own. I work from home, which allows me to provide frequent attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Because I am home most of the time, pets in my care receive plenty of supervision, affection, and a consistent routine. I know every pet has their own routine, so I take the time to learn what makes them comfortable. Whether that means sticking to a specific feeding schedule, going for extra walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing on the couch, I try to keep their day as normal as possible. I work from home and have a fully fenced yard, which allows for plenty of supervised outdoor time, exercise, and play throughout the day. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

The beach is my back yard and offers wonderful sights and sounds for your pet. Inside the home is quiet, and gentle so your little one feels safe and well cared for.
About: I have 7 years of experience being a veterinary technician for veterinary clinics and emergency hospitals. I, also, work remote so I am able to take as many happy doggos during the day. My dog (2-year-old Belgian Malinois) gets along with small to large dogs as he has been trained to be around all size dogs. I have a large fenced in back yard and a large house for them to run around in. I do have a cat, but he keeps to himself and has his own room to be in. I have worked Rover all in the past, but now with a remote job I would love to help others out for doggie day care and of course someone for my dog to hang out with. I am very capable of taking care of any type of dog and I have a lot of skills training puppies. I work remotely so I am home all the time so I can easily take care of puppies to seniors. I have tons of toys at the house and of course a 2 year old Belgian Malinois that loves everyone and loves to play. I have a large fully fenced in backyard and a large house for doggos to run around in. I can offer day-time boarding and overnight boarding at my house.

About: Growing up, I’ve always had a strong love for animals. Free of charge, I would cat sit for my neighbors while they went on vacation, walk my friends dogs in my spare time, and additionally scroll for hours on end through sites that had dogs for adoption. When I turned 13 years old my parents finally gave in. I’ve now had my dog (Riley) for almost 8 years. We’ve gone through nearly 8 birthdays, 7 gotcha days, countless training sessions, and an endless amount of love. She fills my heart all while simultaneously filling my camera roll. To me, she’s worth the extra phone storage payment😅 I’m currently 3rd-year college student studying biology on the premedical track. Before and after my classes begin, I’ll have plenty of free time to care for your pup. Each walk, I will be equipped with various supplies ranging from poo bags and paw wipes to fetching toys and water bowls. For home visits, I’ll ensure that your dog receives ample love and attention. I’ll do my best avoid any deviation from their normal routine!
“Tracey did an amazing job with our dog! It made me feel so much better that he was getting some exercise while I worked. I got cute pictures and an update about him. Would recommend! We will definitely be booking her services again.”
“I had a vacation out of state and Felicitas truly made me feel like I was still at home taking care of my own babies. She was super responsive, and on time every time. She updated me on one of my dogs limping as soon as she noticed it and sent a video displaying the problem. The pictures she sent were also very cute and funny. My babies adored her. Next time I go on vacation I would absolutely use her again.”

I myself have 3 cats, 2 conures, 3 ferrets, 2 snakes and 2 lizards! Which leaves me with little to no room to board your critters :( But I am always available to animal sit at yours! I will follow your instructions exactly after all you know your pets best! I’ll make sure to update with pictures daily or during every walk! Id prefer that you leave a detailed note on their daily routine as to keep them on the same routine. And of course I’ll make sure to leave your house just as how you left if not better. Can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! :) I currently am unemployed freeing me to focus only on Rover! At home I’m already caring for several animals of my own and often babysitting for family members. In your own home I will follow your care instructions as to keep your dog/cat on the same schedule. I can administer oral meds, and I can handle cleaning any messes when it comes to your elderly critters.
About: When you book with me, your pet gets the best care possible! Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay, I tailor every experience to meet your pet’s unique needs. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from energetic puppies who need long walks and playtime to senior dogs who just want a gentle stroll and lots of love. My most knowledgeable experience was caring for my senior golden retriever named Doc, who needed medication twice a day and extra patience on his walks. I made sure he got his medicine on time and took slow, comfortable walks at his own pace. For dog walks, I provide engaging walks with plenty of exercise, potty breaks, and personalized attention. I’ve walked everything from high-energy huskies who love to run to shy rescue dogs who need extra reassurance and gentle care. For drop-in visits, I check in on your pet, refresh food and water, provide potty breaks, clean up as needed, and, of course, give plenty of belly rubs and playtime. I once cared for a nervous rescue pup named Baxter, who was slow to trust new people. With patience and treats, he warmed up to me, and by the end of our visits, he was happily greeting me at the door with a wagging tail! For overnight sitting, your pet gets loving care in a stress-free environment. I stick to their routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and snuggles. I’ve stayed with multiple pets at a time. Throughout every visit, I send regular updates, photos, and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in great hands. Book with me today for dependable, loving pet care! My only current responsibilities are raising my 4 year old daughter who loves all animals, caring for my 7 year old low-maintenance cat named Sparkle, and keeping up with my online classes for my Medical Coding Certificate. The classes are online and allow me to login on at any point in the day to get work done! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I provide a calm and secure environment with a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time. I do have a 5 year old cat named Sparkle who keeps to herself in a separate room and a 3 year old child who loves animals but is always supervised around them to ensure a positive and respectful interaction. For in-home care, I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free. Whether they need structured playtime, a quiet space to relax, or extra attention, I tailor my care to their needs. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, I focus on creating a safe, loving, and trusting environment. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for!
About: I loved animals my whole life. I love showing them love, affection and giving them cuddles. I care about all pets and they will be safe with me. I currently have some time on my hands and looking to fill that out. I'm happy to start this side gig because I love animals and thought this would be a great choice. I like to follow the clients instructions when it comes to their animals and how they want me to take care of them while i'm doing my visits.

“Alexis was the best! We are transitioning from Boston Massachusetts to Hampton roads, and at the last minute I needed a sitter for 2 of my golden doodle boys, to move my remaining items to VA, and Alexis quickly responded and agree to Take my boyz. She took pictures and messaged me daily about much fun they were having. We definitely will utilize Alexis again! We found a sitter here in Hampton Roads! Yay!!”
“I could not have asked for a better dog sitter! From the very beginning, Shanae was professional, dependable, and incredibly caring with my dog. It was clear that she truly loves animals and treats them like family. I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My dog was happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time. Shanae went above and beyond to make sure all routines, feeding schedules, walks, and playtime were handled perfectly. When I returned home, it was obvious that my dog had been loved and cared for exceptionally well. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate dog sitter. I will absolutely be using her again in the future! Thanks again Shanae!”

Thank you so much, Krystal!”

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about wonderful Michele! Our anxious Shih Tzu can be very nervous around new people and changes in routine, but from the very beginning, she showed incredible patience, kindness, and understanding.

We received updates, photos, and reassurance while we were away, which gave us complete peace of mind. It is clear she genuinely cares about animals and treats them like family. We are so grateful to have found someone we trust completely and would highly recommend her to anyone, especially those with anxious pets!”
