“I really felt like Enzo was being taken care of the whole time I was gone. Emily was very kind and flexible with my schedule. I even got some really good professional grade pictures from her of Enzo! All around great experience.”
“Our mini golden retriever stayed an overnight with Kari and her sweet family. Cookie was embraced and became part of the family. She received great care and was very comfortable Cookie gave this dog airbnb a 5 star review. Thanks to Kari and her family. We hope to return again soon.”
“Caroline and Spencer are the best! We will always use them whenever we go out of town! They took such great care of our girl Xena! Their home is amazing and dog friendly! We are so thankful for having them be our rovers! ??”
“my dog had such a great time and really enjoyed staying at Brenda's. Brenda was excellent with communication and sending multiple updates. she made my dog feel right at home.”
“Joleen was amazing. We are new to the neighborhood and needed someone to watch our dog for an evening. Joleen was kind and our dog took to her instantly. She listened to our care instructions and within a few minutes of leaving our dog with her, she sent us a picture to show how happy our pup was. When we came to pick him up, he was happy (and exhausted from all the running he did in her yard!). We would definitely recommend Joleen. Was an amazing experience.”
“Jody took amazing care of our boy Sam while we were gone! Sam is not the easiest dog in the world to care for, he has extra medical and anxiety needs, and Jody didn't hesitate to take him on. She provided ample daily updates, sent pictures and videos, and communicated promptly any time we reached out for an update. Thank you, Jody! The Fultz Family and Sam appreciate you!”
“Wendy was very reassuring while keeping Sammy. I had only had Sammy for 3 weeks when I needed a sitter for a day and a half. I was very nervous to leave him. Wendy kept me updated with photos while keeping Sammy which really helped me. Wendy has a big fenced in back yard which is also very nice for a puppy or grown dog. I was fortunate she had another puppy arrive the second day so my puppy had someone to play with! :-) I would recommend Wendy as a pet sitter if you find your self in need. She has a lot of experience especially with puppies! You can also read the rest of her reviews as I did which brought me to her in the first place!”
“I cannot say enough good things about John. My Ozzy is a “anxious “ pup, but with John he is very calm and happy. I love the frequent texts and photos letting me know that Ozzy is settling in well.”
“Excellent service, care, and communication! I am extremely particular about who watches our fur baby - one, because I adore him, care deeply about his safety, and do not like leaving him; and two, because we have had more than one bad experience in the past. Marketa and Jay were patient and understanding, answered questions, addressed my concerns, and helped allay my fears and worries. And the ongoing communication was greatly appreciated. I felt they were honest and trustworthy, which was a great relief to me as well, as I felt our fur baby was safe in their care.”
“Allison was an excellent communicator while coordinating our pup's day care and was absolutely flexible to help us with our out-of-towner schedule, and was wonderfully attentive to our pup during his stay. Great first experience using Rover - I would recommend Allison for anyone looking for a caring dogsitter!!”
“After four or five meet and greets, Crystal was the only one our little girl gelled with! She is sweet and kind and treated our pup with the special care she needed. We are SO pleased and thankful for Crystal!”
“Theresa took excellent care of Lucy. Very happy with our experience and would totally have our dog stay there again. She was enthusiastic of a meet in greet, wanted to learn about our dog, accommodated refrigerated food, very communicative throughout the stay, and Lucy seemed very happy there! Thanks so much, Theresa!”
“Very highly recommended! Chantal and her husband were great caretakers for our two dogs for a week’s time — even more than we could have expected. They have a beautiful, spacious, safe place — both indoors and for when they had to go outside. My husband and I felt 100% comfortable leaving them there while we were away. From the beginning during our meet-and-greet through pick-up at the end of our trip, we saw just how kind and calm they were, treating our dogs just like their own dog and providing lots of interaction and play. Also, Chantal was extremely accommodating of our 7 month old puppy’s “puppy behavior” and attentive to the need to go outside more frequently. She provided updates every day (and was very responsive to other questions) and we could see just how relaxed our pups were, as if they were staying with family. We are definitely planning on using Chantal’s services the next time we need to go out of town.”
“Eleni and her family were amazing!! I left Louis with them for a month and then another week. He came back very happy and was happy to see them when I dropped him off a second time. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up times. I know I can trust Eleni to watch Louis whenever needed!”
“We were so happy with our dog in Jessica's care! He had a few medical needs requiring some extra attention and meds to be given and she was great with him. She even texted us some updates to just check in while we were gone. We would definitely use her again and recommend her to others.”
“I have boarded my two dogs with Layna on several occasions and they always treat my dogs as a part of their family. They have been my only choice for boarding services. Completely trustworthy and they will keep you updated on your per.”

“Abigail responded super quickly to a last minute request, and took wonderful care of my baby, sending updates and regular photos while I had to be away. :) I am so thankful to have found Abigail.”
“Was very happy with the service provided by Oleksandra. She was on time for the pet visits and took care of both pets as asked. Would definitely recommend her to other pet owners.”
“Ali was Amazing with my cats!! I felt so comfortable being away for almost 2 weeks knowing she was taking care of them. She has such a heart for animals and truly loves on them. They were usually waiting at the door for her. She followed our specific feeding needs, maintained the water fountain and cleaned up after them of any of their feeding messes! We will definitely continue to use her in the future”
“Ariane was amazing with my boy! She gave great updates and even sent me videos of him playing which I loved!! She went slow and let my very dramatic cat do everything at his pace! I knew he was well taken care of while I was gone!”

“Madison is superb. She’s incredibly responsive and responsible. We were nervous about leaving our pups behind and concerned we might have trouble finding someone brave AND loving enough to care for the bully breed. Madison didn’t flinch and our dogs took to her immediately. She is professional, kind, punctual, caring, and will even send photos, which is incredibly thoughtful and reassuring. We won’t hesitate to rely on Madison in the future and highly recommend her services to others.”
About: I’ve taken care of a verity of pets and owned anything from fish, Reptiles, Rodents, Cats, and Dogs. I can also do additional tasks such as cleaning and plant care. I am versatile and can stay at the house or commute. I am also experienced at giving medications to animals as well. Feel free to ask me any questions regarding the sitting or my experience related to pet sitting. I can let sit anytime before/after classes. I’m am currently attending Liberty University and am taking classes throughout the week. Feel free to ask any questions related to the schedule. I make sure that the animals are comfortable, fed, and refreshed before resting. If I am eating at the place I’m house sitting I make sure the animals are fed before I eat (also makes it easier to avoid prying eyes watching me while I eat). Before I end the day I make sure everything is done and that the house is secure. Before the owners come back I make sure to clean and wash everything (if the owners don’t mind me doing this).
About: Hello! I love cats and all their quirks! I’ve been around them for years and love how each one is unique. I'm a dependable and caring animal lover who understands that every cat has their own unique personality and routine. Whether your cat is playful and social or prefers quiet companionship, I'm committed to providing patient, attentive care that helps them feel safe and comfortable while you're away. While I'm new to Rover, I take pet care seriously and understand how important it is to trust someone with a beloved family member. I'll make sure your cat receives plenty of attention, fresh food and water, litter box care, playtime, and affection—always respecting their individual needs and boundaries. I believe communication is key, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and communication. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your cat is being cared for with kindness, patience, and reliability. I look forward to meeting you and your feline friend!
About: I’ve cared for cats for over 17 years, and they’ve been a constant part of my life. I’ve owned and loved cats of all personalities—from shy companions to confident, curious explorers—and I understand their unique needs, routines, and communication styles. Whether it’s providing calm, gentle care or keeping an energetic cat engaged, I’m comfortable and confident with every type of feline. I truly love all animals, but cats hold a special place in my heart, and I treat everyone as if they were my own.
About: I have cared for dogs for a little over six years and have a lot of experience with them. I am a dog lover and know exactly how to keep them happy and healthy while their families are away!

All for the cuddles and playing inside for those that need either or both instead!

“Kari and her family are wonderful! I am so thankful to have found her. She is so kind and accommodating! My dog, Ace, is always so happy and excited when I drop him off. I feel incredibly comfortable because I know he’s always going to be engaged and loved on while in her care!”
“Emily and Donnie were, again, absolutely fantastic! I accidentally messed up the dates I requested, and they were so accommodating. I was out of town for the wholeeeee day, leaving very early and returning extremely late, and they kept him safe and very happy the entire time! Updates were frequently and detailed, which is great for this helicopter pet parent! 1000x would recommend to anyone looking for top-tier pet care!”
“This is our second time booking Marketa for Cadence's daycare while we were in town for an event. She did a great job with her 2 years ago that I immediately thought to reach out to her again when we returned this year. Marketa is attentive and caring with Cadence and sent us photo updates of how she was doing. She got along well with the other doggos and even cuddled up to her on the couch. I never have any worries about Cadence when she stayed with her, and would recommend Marketa to anyone in the neighborhood. Thank you!”
“Falen was so responsive and very careful to read everything in Makka’s profile and to make sure it was the best match for her it could be. Dani was the person home, and she was so warm and friendly and knows a ton about dogs. Even though my baby had an atypical reactive moment when she first met her puppy playmate, Dani wasn’t phased at all, and coached me on how to proceed. “That’s very normal,” she said, and within 30 seconds - 1 minute, Makkachin realized she had a friend and was her usual friendly, playful self! The had a BLAST running around their expansive backyard with her nee puppy friend, and Dani was very attentive. When I came to pick Makka up, Dani brought her right to the door, leashed up and bag packed. She said Makka did a great job and welcomed us back any time. We’ll definitely use them again soon!”
“Jennifer was great with our 4.5 month old puppy. She took him outside enough that there were no accidents. Her dog and our puppy played endlessly. He slept great at night. This was his first time away. She was extremely flexible with our schedule. I highly recommend Jennifer!”

“Absolutely wonderful from the very first day. My little man can't wait to go to daycare every day! Chantal has a caring and and loving manner with dogs of all ages. HIGHLY recommend!”
About: I have been caring for animals for a long time, whether I was pet sitting, working at a pet shop or working in a veterinary hospital. I have over 15 years of experience helping and taking care of animals. I love being around your fury friends helping them feel safe and loved while you are away. Working at a vet also taught me how to give animals their medications if needed. I love being able to pet sit because I genuinely enjoy my time with the animals and helping the owners feel comfortable that their pets are in good hands! Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope to be hearing from you shortly! I have open availability, pet sitting is my full time job! Whether you need house sitting, a dog that needs one walk a day or 3, we can work something out! I can fit things around your schedule and to your pets needs, I give them all the gentle love and care they need while your away!
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life. From housetraining puppies to caring for aging senior dogs, I have experience with a range of personalities/quirks and am very comfortable with large or hyperactive dogs and rescues. My older Beagle, who I cared for for more than 13 years, had a seizure disorder and in the final months of her life, we administered IV sub-Q fluids to her every 2-3 days, so I have experience with caring for pups with medical needs and I can administer medication. I also have 5 years of experience volunteering in a high-volume animal shelter, working predominantly with large dogs, so I understand how animals might behave when they are in a stressful environment and interacting with an unfamiliar person. I strive to provide a stress-free, comforting environment while you are away so please let me know what your pup loves the most! What you can expect: — Time outdoors, playing or on leashed walks — Cuddles and belly rubs — Lots of (approved) treats — Every effort to stick to your pet’s routine and establish clear boundaries! I can provide in-home doggy day care and boarding with a prior meet and greet* if your dog gets along with the two dogs in our home. Your pup will never be left alone with my dogs when I’m providing doggy day care or boarding, so I do require them to be crate-trained for overnight stays. I work full-time from home during the week but have a very flexible schedule. I can provide morning walks, drop in visits and afternoon playtime before lots of attention in the evening. My partner is also home most days and our 15-year-old stepson is home in the afternoons and evenings (and weekends), though he is not involved in any animal care. I can board one to two dogs (from the same household) in my home if they are crate-trained, but a meet and greet is required beforehand. They will not be left alone in my home with my pups unattended. I am available for drop-in visits and some housesitting. I am open to long-term, ongoing schedules as well as flexible, on-the-spot drop-ins. I can provide some services in my own home most days of the week. I am open to spending as much time as I can with your pup. I enjoy walks, playing outdoors and sticking to their routine as much as possible! I know it can be stressful for pets when their owners are gone so I strive to provide a stress-free experience for your best friend! I will use your standard equipment and follow all directions you provide, especially on walks. I have experience with escape artists and will do everything I can to keep your pup safe. I also am very neat and tidy, will clean up any messes your pet makes and will treat your space with respect.
“Miso loves to stay with Ariane and Olive! She has a nice and clean space. Miso always came home tired but happy as they had good time playing together. Miso was in her heat and Ariane was so nice that she accommodated my requests to make sure Miso is healthy and we're not having any unintended puppies! Ariane sent photos everyday and let you know how your doggie did everyday. She's a great sitter and I've already had Miso's daycare booked with her for next week!”
About: I love animals of all kinds and enjoy caring for them as if they were my own. I have experience watching neighbors', friends', and family members' furry companions, and I understand how important it is to provide them with loving, reliable care. Whether it's going for walks, playing at the dog park, or simply giving them plenty of attention and affection, I'll make sure your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I am available Monday threw Sunday at any time after 8am. If it’s a emergency, I will take your fur baby before 8am. I look forward to meeting your fur baby. All dogs will be on a leash when I take them out to use the bathroom. I do not have a fenced in backyard. I only crate animals if you request that and you provide your own crate. Other wise I allow all animals to roam the house freely.
About: I have been caring for animals for my entire life and have always adored learning about them and working with them. I will care for any kind of animal of any temperament and will provide an abundance of love, as caring for pets is very fulfilling for me and improves my mental wellbeing :) I am currently working as a vet assistant and will try to update my Rover schedule each month around my schedule at the vet. I am able to take pets into my workplace if you need me on days I work and are comfortable with that. I am extremely respectful of owners’ homes and will care for the pets exactly as I am asked to. I do not mind assertive or otherwise difficult temperament and will love them all the same. I will ensure to be constantly attentive and focused on meeting their needs and keeping them safe.
About: I have been taking care of dogs my whole life, and even spend time taking care of others homes and dogs as well. I love to get outside and be active seeing as I am a college athlete and have no problem running around with animals and caring and loving for them when you are not able to do it. I truly love animals and have such compassion for them that I love to take care of them. I am a teacher, and love to board dogs during the weeks. They keep me active in days that I am working. I would love to talk to you more about your dogs needs, I hope that we are a perfect match and I will be able to help you take care of your animals!
About: I have 1 of my own dogs who lives with me. But I also have experience with a total of 4 dogs as my parents have 3. All are Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. I am comfortable with all medium and small size dogs. I do request that they are house trained. I like to take dogs on walks but if they are smaller it is okay if they are not perfect at walking on a leash. I can even help work with them on that. I currently work a normal day job during the week. But I work remote, that means that the dogs would not be alone at all during the day. They would have someone to care for them, take them out and feed them if necessary. Every day it is not raining, I do go on a 1 mile walk with my dog on my lunch so that they get good exercise. HOUSE SITTING: I can work remote from your house providing care all day. However, my dog Charlie would also have to come with me. If this is something that you do not feel comfortable with, I can offer drop in help instead. I have 1 of my own dogs (Charlie) who lives with me full time. My apartment is fully equipped for a dog to be here safely. I have a balcony where the dogs can spend time enjoying the fresh air. My dog gets along with all other dogs and is very friendly as he used to go to daycare with many other dogs. I have the ability to walk the dogs, get them fresh air and exercise. I also have dog toys and bones available for them to use. Dogs are allowed in all areas of my place. Including the couch, dog beds and human beds. Allowing them to be where they feel the most comfortable.
About: Hi, My name is Torie. I am a nurse. I grew up on a farm with horses, goats, chickens, donkeys, and of course dogs/cats. I worked at the Virginia Tech Dairy, milking cows and feeding calves, during my time as an undergraduate at Virginia Tech. I currently own a horse and I have two dogs. I have a heart for taking care of animals and I have a lot of experience. I have experience with caring for special needs, administering medications, and wound/injury care. I love all animals. I have two acres at my house, it’s not fenced in but I have gps fence collars. I have access to a large farm and river frontage where your dog can be thoroughly exercised with permission. Terms negotiable. Feel free to ask any questions you might have. :) The pets are taken care of before anything else. They will be let out, fed their breakfast, and exercised first thing in the morning. They will be let out or walked every 4 hours or less. I will either leash walk your pet or I do have a gps fence e collar available. My dogs are very friendly and playful. They get along with all dogs from teeny pocket beagles to huge hounds and everything in between.
About: Animals have always been a central part of my life. As a pet owner myself, I understand that our pets are family members, not just animals. My personal dogs receive the same love, attention, and care that I would want for any pet entrusted to me. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have more than 15 years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats, including owning and operating a nonprofit animal rescue for five years. Through my rescue work, I cared for hundreds of dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including puppies, seniors, special-needs pets, and dogs recovering from illness or surgery. I am experienced with administering medications, monitoring health concerns, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention or veterinary care. I know that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I will care for them as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Because I spend a significant amount of time at home, your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and potty breaks throughout the day. I understand the importance of maintaining routines and will work with you to ensure your pet’s schedule, feeding times, medications, and preferences are followed closely. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I can provide the level of care and attention they need. Safety is always my top priority. My experience running an animal rescue taught me how to properly introduce dogs, recognize signs of stress, manage different personalities, and provide a safe environment for pets with varying needs. I have a securely fenced yard and closely supervise outdoor time. I can also accommodate medications, special feeding instructions, crate training, and senior pet care.

“Abigail is wonderful! This was my first time with Rover, and she made it easy. She came over for a meet and greet, sent me updates, and took great care of my crazy babies.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and truly can’t imagine my life without them! 🐶 I currently have two dogs who had to stay with my father in Ukraine because of the situation there and I miss them very much. Spending time with dogs here helps me feel calm and happy — for me, this is more about companionship and love than money. Because of that, I prefer to care for one dog at a time and give them my full attention. I’m attentive, gentle, and very mindful of dogs’ emotions and comfort. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just quiet company, I make sure your dog feels safe and loved 💛 I’m currently working part-time, which gives me flexibility and plenty of time to focus on pet care. I’m easily adjusting my day to a dog’s routine and needs. I’m available on weekdays and weekends. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, keep a calm and clean environment, and avoid overcrowding. I prefer a peaceful setting where your dog feels secure, relaxed, and truly cared for at all times.
“Arabella was fantastic with my fur babies. Super reliable, communicated well, and really appreciated how affectionate she was to all of my fur babies. Definitely recommend.”
About: I have always been an animal lover, and my job has shown me how to specially care for each and every special baby. Two years in veterinary medicine gave me the experience to confidently handle medications, diabetic care, and reactive pets. I adore even your misunderstood animals and would love to send lots of photos, videos, and updates on your pets if allowed! I currently work at a Pet Wellness Center, but my schedule is very flexible. My shifts are arranged to give me plenty of time to care for both my own pets and yours. In most cases, I can take time off if needed. I also finish work by 7 pm at the latest, so evenings are completely free if that’s what works best for you. When boarding pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where each animal feels at ease. I give plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles, and follow any specific routines or instructions from their owners. I also make sure they get proper meals, medication if needed, and regular bathroom breaks. I live in a very rural, quiet part of Bedford in the middle of the woods, so along with a large yard, we have many trails, with plenty of space to run or go on leashed walks! I love sending updates with photos or videos so you can see your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

I would be happy to help anytime, I only need a little heads up!🫶🏻 I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own home.

I treat every pet and home with respect, keeping everything clean and secure. I also love sending picture updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands while you’re away! 😊

About: As someone who was raised on a fully functioning farm, animal husbandry has been a part of my daily routine since I could walk!

Why Choose Us? 🐾 Large fenced in backyard 🐾 Experienced with all sized breeds 🐾 Flexible drop-off/pickup times 🐾 Regular updates and photos 🐾 Plenty of play, attention, and love We can’t wait to meet your pup and welcome them into our home! I currently work 8am to 5pm M-T and 8am-12pm on Fridays. Stephanie is a teacher so she’s available to be home all day during the summer to ensure your pet is well taken care of! We wake up around 7 am to let our dogs outside and make sure all of them have clean water and their breakfast. Stephanie will usually take the dogs out in the backyard to play or for a walk in the park around noon followed by an enrichment toy or additional indoor playtime.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I also have experience caring for cats, puppies, and senior pets, ensuring they feel loved and safe while their owners are away. My goal is to provide the best care tailored to your pet’s needs. I’m available evenings and weekends for pet care, including walks and in-home visits. My flexible schedule allows me to cater to your pet’s needs whenever you need support! I prioritize creating a safe and loving environment for all pets. Whether it’s in your home or during walks, your furry friend will receive attentive and caring supervision.
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I’ve grown up with — and cared for — pets of all shapes and sizes, from dogs and cats to fish, birds, horses, rodents, and even reptiles. No matter who your furry (or scaly!) family member is, I’m excited to give them the same love and attention I give my own. Pet care is already a natural part of my day. I take care of my cat every morning and evening—making sure she has fresh water, the right amount of food, a clean litter box, and plenty of playtime. Since I’m already in a daily rhythm of caring for pets, adding walks or drop-ins fits easily and naturally into my routine. At home, my kitten is always the first one to greet me at the door, so I make sure she gets attention and reassurance right away. I keep her routine consistent—fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and lots of playtime and affection. When caring for a client’s pets, I’m very mindful of their established routines. I follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions exactly as given. I want every pet to feel comfortable and secure, so I do my best to maintain the rhythm they’re used to. Whether it’s my home or yours, my priority is making sure pets feel safe, understood, and well cared for.
About: Hi! I’m Katie. I’m 35 and have lived in the Lynchburg area for the past 14 years. I’ve lived with and loved animals my whole life. Im a natural with animals and do not get intimated with large animals. I own my own home and I adopted Patty in November of 2020. My life has never been the same. I can pet, walk, exercise, play, feed, brush, water, and love your fur baby! I’m patient and caring and will keep your pet feeling safe, exercised, and loved. Trust in me to keep your pet(s) safe. They’ll be happy. You’ll be happy. I’ll be happy. Hope to hear from you soon! I do work 40 hours a week but am able to come home at lunch. I am home most nights, so ideally I would be a great home if you need your pet to have a sleepover somewhere. I have a fenced in backyard. All dogs are on leashes when we go for walks. My dog sleeps in her crate, but does roam the house during the day. She is so gentle and calm. She has all her shots and a very kind demeanor.
About: I stand out because I combine years of hands‑on pet care with formal training in progress. At home I care for a playful 9‑month‑old pup, a tiny 18‑year‑old chihuahua, plus beetles and bearded dragons—so I’m experienced with both energetic puppies and delicate seniors, as well as exotic pets. My dedication to animals has led me to pursue a future in the pet care service field. I have earned many certificates for animal care such as certification for Working with Dogs and Pet First Aid / CPR. I’m available Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. -5 p.m. for dog walks, and during those hours I’m fully devoted to caring for your pets. While I balance family life with a child at home, pet care is truly part of my everyday routine—24/7 with my own animals—so giving reliable, loving attention to yours fits naturally into my schedule. I am a very “by the book” person who values safety, respect, and trust above all else. If I enter a client’s home, I make sure to only do what I am hired to do, treating both your pets and your space with the utmost care. My years of experience as a housekeeper taught me how important it is to be trustworthy and respectful of others’ belongings, and I carry those same standards into pet care. Loving animals is one of my core morals, and I would never jeopardize my family, my work, or your trust.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats all my life and have my own dog who I treat like my child 🐶 She is the most important thing in my life! I have lots of experience caring for friends and neighbors animals - all different breeds, sizes, even animals with significant medical conditions. 🐾 With having my summers off, my schedule is flexible to come care for your pet whenever needed. Whether it’s early morning walks or evening strolls, I’m available 💕 I follow their routine closely to ensure comfort.I maintain feeding schedules, provide fresh water, offer regular walks or playtime, and give lots of love and attention. My goal is to make your pet feel safe and relaxed while you're away.

“Caroline and Spencer are the best! We will always use them whenever we go out of town! They took such great care of our girl Xena! Their home is amazing and dog friendly! We are so thankful for having them be our rovers! ??”
“Joleen was amazing. We are new to the neighborhood and needed someone to watch our dog for an evening. Joleen was kind and our dog took to her instantly. She listened to our care instructions and within a few minutes of leaving our dog with her, she sent us a picture to show how happy our pup was. When we came to pick him up, he was happy (and exhausted from all the running he did in her yard!). We would definitely recommend Joleen. Was an amazing experience.”
“Jody took amazing care of our boy Sam while we were gone! Sam is not the easiest dog in the world to care for, he has extra medical and anxiety needs, and Jody didn't hesitate to take him on. She provided ample daily updates, sent pictures and videos, and communicated promptly any time we reached out for an update. Thank you, Jody! The Fultz Family and Sam appreciate you!”
“I cannot say enough good things about John. My Ozzy is a “anxious “ pup, but with John he is very calm and happy. I love the frequent texts and photos letting me know that Ozzy is settling in well.”
“Excellent service, care, and communication! I am extremely particular about who watches our fur baby - one, because I adore him, care deeply about his safety, and do not like leaving him; and two, because we have had more than one bad experience in the past. Marketa and Jay were patient and understanding, answered questions, addressed my concerns, and helped allay my fears and worries. And the ongoing communication was greatly appreciated. I felt they were honest and trustworthy, which was a great relief to me as well, as I felt our fur baby was safe in their care.”
“Allison was an excellent communicator while coordinating our pup's day care and was absolutely flexible to help us with our out-of-towner schedule, and was wonderfully attentive to our pup during his stay. Great first experience using Rover - I would recommend Allison for anyone looking for a caring dogsitter!!”
“Theresa took excellent care of Lucy. Very happy with our experience and would totally have our dog stay there again. She was enthusiastic of a meet in greet, wanted to learn about our dog, accommodated refrigerated food, very communicative throughout the stay, and Lucy seemed very happy there! Thanks so much, Theresa!”
“Eleni and her family were amazing!! I left Louis with them for a month and then another week. He came back very happy and was happy to see them when I dropped him off a second time. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up times. I know I can trust Eleni to watch Louis whenever needed!”
“We were so happy with our dog in Jessica's care! He had a few medical needs requiring some extra attention and meds to be given and she was great with him. She even texted us some updates to just check in while we were gone. We would definitely use her again and recommend her to others.”
“Casey is amazing. It was our first time leaving our dog with anyone and we were delighted to see her on daily walks and sleeping soundly under her Christmas tree. She took the time to get to know Luna and sent daily updates on how she was doing/feeling. Casey was also very flexible and understanding. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much!”
“Falen and her wonderful family were so good to my Thor. She provided excellent updates with pictures and her communication kept my mind at ease. I am absolutely going to use her again. Thanks so much, Falen!!!!”
“Im so glad we were able to find Cheyanne last minute! Our 6 month old doodle mix loved her pups and had a blast. She sent great updates with pictures and I know my pup was well taken care of!”
“Katie is wonderful. She watched our 11 month old puppy with the most loving care. We were so nervous about leaving our new puppy, but felt so comfortable with her. Highly recommended.”
“I have so many beautiful things to say about Mary and her family! You can see the love in that house from the start, and she was so understanding about the personal needs of my dog. My dog was a rescue and can be easily intimidated, which makes her a little edgy, but she was given the space and love she needed, and seemed to thrive at their home. She sent photo updates and kept me in the loop the whole time, which allowed me to relax and enjoy the trip I was on. When I got back, my dog didn’t even seem like she was anywhere but home. She was such a happy girl. I’m so so so so grateful I found Mary!! I’ll be taking a trip next month and will definitely use her again. Really can’t say enough about her. Such a positive experience! ❤️”
