“Bryan and his wife were awesome! They took amazing care of our dogs, and we felt that they were loved the entirety of their stay! Would 10/10 recommend, and we will definitely be back.”

“While we were away for the weekend, Cooper was on vacation with Connie. You can tell he had a Wonderful time because all the awesome pictures Connie sent us he had a Big Smile on his face. I can not thank Connie enough for taking excellent care of Cooper!”


“This was our first time using Rover and Amber made us feel so comfortable about leaving our pup with her. We scheduled our vacation last year and I had forgotten to book JackJacks stay at a kennel we normally take him to. I’m glad that I did because Amber took such good of him. From the first meeting until we got back I felt at ease. She sent us pictures of him everyday and gave us updates on how he was adjust. My husband and I were a little concerned about her fence because our pup is small and he’s escaped from our backyard numerous times. Amber sent us pictures of JackJack playing on her screened in porch because she knew we were a little concerned. I would definitely book Amber to keep JackJack again. When we picked up Jack he greeted us but tried to go back into Ambers home, so that let me know that he also had a great time with her. ☺️”

“A great vacation for my high energy pups! Christopher was very responsive and was awesome at accommodating for my shepards. Lots of space for them to run and play. Would recommend!”

“Megan was amazing! This was our first time having her board our dog and we were so impressed. She sent multiple pictures and videos everyday. We really felt like she welcomed our dog into her home and cared for him like he was her own. We will definitely be using Megan in the future and have already reccomended her to our friends and family.”

“Hannah provided great care for my dogs, as well as thorough updates, with pictures. The pups seemed to enjoy there time with her and I would not hesitate to take them back!”

“Great sitter! Have booked many times. He's so great with my dog. She has separation anxiety- Phillip takes such good care of her. He is attentive and caring. Highly recommend”

“Kathryn was amazing! So warm and inviting to me and my dog Romeo! The kids loved on him just like he was their own. I got pics of him everyday and I’ve never seen a smile so big on his face! She made him feel at home and made me feel at ease knowing he was being taken care of in a safe and happy environment! This was my first time boarding him and I absolutely will be calling her in the future! 10/10!”

“Traci did a perfect job watching my pet. I was confident and comfortable the entire time, appreciated the communication, as well as her flexibility and attention to care. Highly recommend!”

“The experience with Sonja and Phil was absolutely amazing. They Communicate well and quickly! Enzo was loved on like their own. They even ordered and installed a broken buckle on his collar while we were gone! We will definitely be using them many times in the future 🙂”

“Great holiday stay for our new pup. I was a bit nervous because our 5 month old can be a terror and find himself in trouble with regards to eating things he shouldn’t. Eldeen and her husband heard my concerns and assured me they could deal. Eldeen was communicative during the stay and kindly provided updates, including photos. I was really happy this was an opportunity for my puppy to socialize with other dogs and young children. Highly recommend if you need a family that is obviously very comfortable with handling any dog.”

“Audree took good care of Rueben and he loved it there with the other dogs also. You could tell he was really in his element. She shared videos and pictures and kept us updated with him!”

“The BEST! We were hoping to find someone who cared for our little guy like we do and we found her. Linda and her family are amazing and deserve 6 stars. We will be using Linda's boarding services many, many more times!”

“Kristina was amazing! She was so responsive and accommodating, even taking our pups in last minute. From the start, she was warm and welcoming, and we could tell our dogs were loved and well cared for while we were away. We’ll definitely be booking with Kristina again!”

“This was Meeshie’s first time away from us and Laurie did an awesome job caring for her. She sent photos and texts letting us know how Meeshie was doing everyday.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Sydney. From the moment we met her, she was incredibly friendly and easy to communicate with—someone we instantly felt we could trust. She was reliable every step of the way, and our two cats absolutely adored her. Sydney went above and beyond by sending us frequent photo updates, which not only showed how happy and relaxed our cats were, but also gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Thanks to her attentive care, we were able to fully enjoy our vacation knowing our pets were in the best hands. Highly recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a kind, dependable, and truly caring sitter!”


About: I have taken care of cats most of my life. I have 3 cats at the moment and my favorite thing about them is that they all have such different personalities! I know that cats can be very independent but they still rely on us for routine with food, attention and ensuring their litter is always clean. A cat’s environment is very important! I have taken care of sick/hurt cats before as well and know how sensitive they can be.
“Jessica did an awesome job. Took the time to sit and get and know my cats who are normally pretty timid to strangers. The warmed up to her in record time. Thank you so much!”


“Mary is amazing! We have kittens that are not socialized and hide whenever anyone comes to the house. Mary was able to gain their trust so that she would see them and assure us that our kitties were doing well. Will definitely book Mary for future trips!”


“Amanda was amazing. She was super communicative and we loved getting our check ins from Rover from her! We felt very comfortable as she explained exactly how our babies were acting that day and how she was taking care of them. She was such a great person to have take care of our babies and was so sweet towards us and worked with our requests. I will definitely be booking again!”


“Holly is absolutely great with my cat, and I feel much better knowing she is caring for her. Highly recommend her to anyone who wants the absolute best care for their pet.”


About: I am an avid animal lover of all kinds and have in the more recent years been able to care for feline only families and have gotten quite used to their care. I have plenty of references on cats of all ages, litter boxes of all kinds, feeding time with both raw and kibble, cats that need to be seperated or are fine playing together. Diabetic kitties. You name it. I’ve handled it.
About: Hi! I’m Cami, and I live in Fredericksburg with my husband, daughter, and our two cats. I’m a preschool teacher and have been caring for pets since I was 12 years old. Over the years, family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their pets while they’re away. I enjoy spending time with animals and understand how important it is to know they’re in good hands. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet and make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I’m currently on maternity leave, which allows me to be available full-time over the next few weeks for pet care, boarding, and drop-in visits. During the school year, I work as a full-time preschool teacher from 6:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., but I’m available before and after work, overnight, and on weekends. I’m happy to work around my teaching schedule to provide reliable care for your pets! We have plenty of space around our home for walks and outdoor time. Our two cats are very friendly and comfortable around other animals. I’m also able to accommodate crating if needed and can care for multiple pets when appropriate.
“Paige was accommodating about booking on short notice when my regular sitter couldn’t make it. Before my trip, she came over for a meet and greet and was super friendly! She provided updates about and pictures of my kitties while I was out of town.”


“I cannot recommend Juliann enough!!!! She was so lovely and easy to communicate with, and she made time to meet with us before our trip so we could speak with her about our cats! It made us feel so much more at ease. While we were on the trip, she sent us a ton of photos and updates! She did everything we asked and even stayed a little longer for some visits to give the cats extra love! Very easy 5 stars :)”

About: I have two dogs of my own that have taught me so much. Both of mine have reactive tendencies, so I am no stranger to dogs that need a little extra patience. I have spent many hours in training with my pups, so if you’re looking for someone to help reinforce some skills at home, I can do that! One of my dogs is also epileptic, so I have experience with complex medical needs as well. I have spent the past few months volunteering at a local dog shelter twice a week and I have genuinely loved spending time with the dogs and getting to know them and watch them blossom and find furever homes. I’m looking forward to spending even more time with some incredible furry friends! I currently do not work, so I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. I’m open to one time sits/walks or something recurring! Overnights are not currently an option for me as I have my own pups to care for. I am looking for jobs at your home (or out an about); I do not offer in-my-home care at this time. But I can come over and spend time with your pet(s) while you’re at work or on date-night, stop in for walks or feeds/potty breaks, or take your dog on an outing like a hike or a trip to downtown! I’m flexible and open to whatever you and your pet need.
“Alexis is amazing! My cat is normally very shy but he warmed up to her right away. Can’t say enough good things. She communicated with me very well, took great care of my cat, and my cat is now in love. I will definitely use her again!”
About: I love all kinds of fur babies. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have been working with them for years. i work at an animal hospital. love puppies and taking care of the older ones to I do work full time at an animal hospital but still available for any kind of care depending on the distance. I’m free on weekends and any holiday I can not offer services at my own home but can come to yours and take care of the fur babies, go on walks, feeding

“Our dear Pup ALWAYS has a good time hanging out with Larissa! When he knows that we’re pulling up to her house, he starts to get SUPER excited which makes us feel good❤️! She is truly a godsend!!”

“Chris was very patient, flexible, accommodating, and understanding. We had last minute plans and needed someone to look after our Saint Bernard. We did a meet and greet and a daycare session to get her comfortable before we leave and he did a great job!”

“I was so happy to find this sitter! We just adopted a rescue dog. He has a lot of anxiety. He needs special care while he is adjusting to his new home. Because of his anxiety he needs a low stimulation environment. She has been so good working with my dogs special needs! I can’t say enough good about her!! We are so grateful for the care she has given our dog!!”

“This was our first time using the Rover app for our babies. At first I was nervous but once we meet Phillip that changed. Phillip was so welcoming and took really good care of our babies for the day. Phillip I want to thank you for caring for our babies you did an amazing job. We will definitely be booking with you again. See you soon!”

“HIGHLY recommend! Willing to take pup at the last min. and the enviroment is dog friendly! My boy was happy when we arrived and yet not anxious to leave! Thank you!”

“Melissa was great at taking care of Dasher Ron short notice. She communicated with me throughout the day and sent pictures. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

“I feel good knowing Rocky is safe with Eldeen & her family. This is his second time going to doggy daycare at Eldeen’s house & he was tugging to go into the house once we arrived. I will definitely continue booking Eldeen for daycare & would recommend her.”

“Tiffany was an absolute delight to book with!! From the very beginning, she was very prompt in her responses and answered any questions that I had. I am a newer dog mom, so she put me at ease due to her kindness and professionalism. She was very flexible with drop-off/pickup times, which I know can be tough for most. That was a huge plus! She also communicated throughout the day with updates and cute photos of my fur baby so I knew he was safe and well taken care of. If I could, I would give her 10/5 stars! I definitely plan to book with her again in the near future! Thanks again Tiffany!”


“They are amazing! I’ve never trusted anyone more with my dog. They treated my dog like he was their own and it made me feel so comfortable leaving him there. They were very flexible and I loved them!!”

About: Been taking care of pets since I was in Highschool. It was always a fun way to get my pet fix since we didn’t have any growing up! Stay at home mom of 3 young boys so I’m always home. This will give us a new purpose during the day which is much needed. It will also give me the chance to spend time with all these sweet animals instead of trying to own a million of them myself 😂 A bonus of booking with me is your pet will get lots of one on one attention as this is not like your average corporate kennel. We provide a cozy environment within our home. Your animals will get all the love and attention all the while getting treated as one of our own🤍 I am trying to put my sweet boys through private school and thought this would be an awesome way to do so since it’s something me and my whole family will love! Big animal lovers over here:) We will provide a loving home with a big fenced in back yard for all to play. Can’t wait to love on and help take care of/entertain your fur babies!
“Lindsey was SO great with Teddy. Teddy came home tired and happy! The pictures she sent to us were adorable and showed how much fun he had. Lindsey was very communicative and easy to work with.”

“My pup had an amazing day with Audree. Her tail was wagging when she left. It was so nice to see the pictures throughout the day and then see my pup’s face at pick up - confirming her enjoyment. She was comfortable enough to take a long nap on her first stay. That’s really telling me she was comfortable.”

“Linda and her family took wonderful care of Navi! I received many cute pictures and videos of Navi having fun with the family. Navi had a great time and enjoyed her stay. Linda was also very flexible with her schedule which I very much appreciated. Looking forward to the next time, thank you so much!”

“Lindsey is absolutely INCREDIBLE! The love and care she shows for my pup is unmatched. She goes above and beyond to work with my schedule and is truly such a kind person. If you’re looking for someone to look after your pup in any way. No hesitation. It HAS to be Lindsey. You will not regret it!!!”

“Jessica did amazing with our dog Molly! She left extensive and detailed notes each day about the walk. I loved receiving multiple photos each day. It gave us good peace of mind knowing Molly was being taken care of someone we could trust. We will definitely use her again in the future!”

About: I'm a dependable, compassionate animal lover who knows that every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, getting belly rubs, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I'll make sure they receive the care and attention they're used to. I'll follow your pet's routine closely, provide plenty of love and patience, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make your pet feel happy, cared for, and stress-free, while making your time away as worry-free as possible. I would be honored to care for your pets and treat them like they're part of my own family! I’m currently in school for my bachelors in psychology, I have a pretty flexible schedule within the time I’m not doing school work. I will take the best care of your furry friend in your home while you're away on vacation or work trips with love and reliability.
About: I’ve had plenty of dogs my entire life as well as taken care of friends and families dogs. Overnight, check ins or walking. I love walking dogs especially and playing with all animals. I will provide a safe, caring, and loving environment for your pets so you’re worry free while away from them! Currently between jobs and am a full time online college student. So I am pretty flexible!! If something doesn’t work i’ll just make that clear but I do not have many scheduled things in my day to day. I don’t mind doing feeding, walking, play time! Also don’t mind light clean up if they make a mess while you are gone. My dogs are kind of crazy so I understand messes happen! My dogs have an open back yard but if your dog is trained to walk I will be happy to take them out that way. My dogs get plenty of play time mainly with each other but i’ve done plenty of play time with them myself and can incorporate that with you dogs if they require play time! I also have dealt with older and sick dogs so I know how to be gentle and handle that. I have also had my own cat and watched others, I adore cats. Mine was sick for a while so i’m familiar with oral medication for cats and soothing cats’ anxieties as mine suffered heavily from unknown anxiety.
“Paige took great care and did very well with Eli on his walks, she even made sure he was content with a nice treat at the end. I would highly recommend Paige and will definitely be utilizing her services again.”

About: I love pets! I will make sure your pet is well taken of and loved while you are away from your home! I have taken care of a few different pets!

I will walk your pet 2-3 times a day. I also will spend lots of time with your pet, so that they don’t feel alone.
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was 8. For the last 7 years I have taken care of my neighbors pets, cat and/or dog. I would be more than happy to take care of yours! I am a college student home for the summer, I am not working and always home so I am always available for taking care of your pets as if they were my own! I have a deck, plenty of open space near my house for your pets to run around, I also have a dog who is friendly and would love to keep yours company.

About: I love all animals and enjoys their company. I'd love to take care of your dog(s) and cats while you're away, so you don't have to worry. When I'm not traveling, I work from home full time, so animals will have plenty of attention and go outside pretty frequently. I have a large yard on rural property and there's a dirt road to get in a several walks. Your dog will have supervised and/or leashed access to the outdoors. There's a lot of room to run. I have had experience handling medications for animals for several years, as my cocker spaniel took medications for glaucoma and congestive heart failure. You can trust that your pup will be spoiled here, like one of my very own. :) I am currently home full time but job hunting so animals have care 24/7. Hoping to find remote work but if this changes I will update here. My animals are friendly with all dogs. I keep all dogs leashes while outdoors. We make sure all doors are closed and all food and poison items are not within reach

About: I have had dogs since I was 8 years old. I’ve always had a natural love for animals and walking. I often take long walks by myself. I have worked with senior dogs and puppies and every experience has been a blessing. I just graduated college and have come back home for the summer. I am free most days, except Sundays. I am excited for the opportunity to meet new friends and pets! I have two goldendoodles at home and provide the daily care for them. They get walked twice a day and play in the backyard. I believe in a hands off approach where I let the dog approach me and do their own thing. I never try to force myself into their space.

About: I have always had a soft spot for animals. I began working in the medical field but once I became a stay at home mom I realized something was missing.. my heart was in the place to care for animals instead. When my youngest was just under 2 I started taking on small dog walking jobs to get us out of the house during Covid and enjoying some fresh air and I really just fell in love with it. I have my own "misfit farm" of unwanted animals and in my down time I am taking on dog walking/pet sitting. I am knowledgeable in many animals including dogs, cats birds, small animals, exotics and farm animals. I currently own a Great Pyrenees, two cane corsos, beagle and we recently lost our mini dachshund, a cat plus 3 rescue goats, bunnies and a ton of chickens. I can also help with basic training and using an E collar. Medications or special needs animals is also something I am comfortable with. I do have kids who love to go on walks with me when I am dog walking, but it is not necessary for them to come with . My dog sitting calendar is filling up quickly! At this moment I am boarding dogs on a case by case basis so just reach out and we can chat! I am available for house sitting, however cannot accommodate regular overnight stays but can accommodate frequent and lengthy visits. I am a mom to 3, but am pretty much open and available for your needs. Hanging out with animals is a strong passion of mine and I often use the extra cash to do things with my kids. I cannot accommodate overnights in my house sitting but can offer lengthy and frequent visits I am available for walking, feeding, caring, loving and walking your babies of whatever species and breed. I am extremely responsible and comfortable with administering medication if need be and am very cautious when it comes to walking or letting the animal outside or when it comes to rules you have for your pet. There is very little I wouldn't be able to do, so little I can't even think of one at the moment. You can trust that I will love and care for your animals like they were my own. I can even show you pictures and videos of my very spoiled pets for reference!

“Our dog Reese had a great time with Mickey and his dogs. We love that Mickey has a training background and we didn't have to worry about Reese coming back with any bad behaviors. In fact, Mickey knows how to handle Reese better than we do. Another very important part to us is that Reese was hanging out with a loving family and not just kept in a crate. We will definitely board with Mickey again.”

“Christie was great - kept us informed, sent us videos and took plenty of time to get to know our doodle puppy and gave her plenty of exercise and love. Also, when a massive rainstorm hit just before pickup, she gave us some extra time to get which was greatly appreciated. She is caring and offered suggestions about diet and treats and worked with her on her first nite getting to sleep in a strange place. Her large doodle ended up being a great play buddy outside. We will use her again for sure.”
