“Amanda and Scott were amazing! They treated our Turbo just like family with all the love and cuddles! He thoroughly enjoyed his stay as evidence of his 3.5 hr nap :)”
“Tara and her family were amazing with my dog. As a rescue, my dog is nervous in new situations. I appreciate all the great care that she provided. My dog had a great time and she cared for her with the same level of care that I would.”
“We recently moved to the east coast and needed to find new dog sitters. Stephanie, Max, and their dog Callie were amazing! They took such great care of our high energy dog Luke. He had so much fun with them that he didn't want to come back home :( We appreciated the photos and text updates every day! We've already booked them a second time next month. I highly recommend them!”
“Teona and Louelyn were wonderful to out 1 year old Bassett Hound. We just moved to the area and had a wedding all the way in New York. I spent a few days researching the right sitter on Rover and struck gold with Teona and Louelyn! They have a clean home with plenty of space for your dog to roam and also a fenced in backyard. Teona sent pictures and daily updates and even gave my dog a bath! When I picked her up she was very happy. We will book with them again!”
“Hands down my sweet old lady pup was spoiled rotten! I had no worries at all and got the sweetest videos and photos while we were out of town. I would 100% want my pup to be cared for by Lauryn and her family. If she is available-book her. Totally worth it!”
“Lyra and Scott took great care of Ruby. They followed our instructions that we had for her and even gave her extra attention when she got a little sick. They were flexible with the pick up time as we didn’t know exactly when we would be there to pick up and kept us informed about Ruby thru pictures and texts.”
“Another great Stay with Isaac and Omaira. The sent pics and videos the whole trip and even let us drop the boys off early. I know they are looking forward to their next stay already!”
“Crystal was a fabulous sitter for our dog Rocky!! She was organized, professional,very dog savvy and also very warm and loving toward Rocky. I could tell he had a great time with her, will definitely book with her again! She also sent us daily updates and pictures.”
“Thank you Paul and Terri! Super sweet family and you made Bailey feel right at home. If I am in the area again I will be sure to contact you again. Thank you 😊”
“We are so happy we found Bryan! After a bad pet transport, our Scotti has had aggression issues being around strangers. Bryan had no problem taking him and calming him down quickly. He is his normal sweet self at Bryan’s home and he loves the whole family. They take such good care of him and always send lots of updates and pictures. We feel confident taking vacations knowing he’s in good hands!”
“Ellie exceeded my expectations. She was available to sit for my dogs on very short notice, was very communicative, and sent pictures of my pups regularly. It was such a relief knowing they were so we'll taken care of while I was away.”
“Savannah was absolutely amazing with my dog. She was very responsive and sent me daily photos and texts to let me know how my fur baby was doing. Her farm is perfect for dogs and she took them on walks around the walking paths.”
“These folks are simply wonderful. My pup loves nothing more than running in the woods and rough housing with good natured pups, and she had this in abundance here. This is a house of true animal lovers. The communication was great, my dog felt safe and like part of the family, and she came home exhausted and happy. You guys are the best!!”
“My pup has stayed with Hillary twice now, and she is the sweetest! She's been so helpful and flexible, and Brownie has had a wonderful time with her family both times.”
“Oh my gosh! My boy Neeko had THE BEST time!!!! Cristen was great at sharing photos and videos during his 2 night weekend visit. Her communication is so good. Micheal playing out in the yard with him throwing the ball. The whole family gave Neeko lots of love as if he were their own. Once I picked Neeko up and got him home, he slept the rest of the day. He was completely worn out!! If he were a kid, I think he would be talking about his sleepover for days!!! Lol. I could not have found a more perfect family to love my baby. 🥰”
“Jared was exceptional. He and his daughter took in our two golden retrievers as their own and I think that’s all we can ask for as a pet parent. I would highly recommend anyone staying in the Williamsburg choose Jared as your pet sitter. We will definitely be using him again.”
“What a God send! Janeen is such a kind and caring individual with obvious patience and compassion. She asked all kinds of follow up questions to make sure kitty would be as comfortable as possible in his home away from home. Janeen was very communicative and sent pictures and videos throughout the day every day. The family even moved some items around to allow kitty to climb on and around freely. I wish I lived closer to this wonderful family as I would 100% use their services again. They were thoughtfully accommodating knowing we were already away from home on vacation and even made some suggestions for local activities my family and I could visit. Do not scroll pass this couples profile I highly recommend this home for your pet baby needs.”
“Karen was warm and friendly with both us and our dog. She sent regular updates while we were away. Our dog must really love Karen because she was barking protectively when I walked up to the door. We look forward to more visits with Karen!”
“Ryan & Stephanie were great! They responded quickly to my original request and were extremely good at communication. Most importantly, Hazel felt right at home with this awesome family while we’re out of town. 110% recommend!”

“Susan did a great job taking care of my senior cat! She was very attentive to her needs and routine and was so sweet with her. I would highly recommend Susan and would rebook with her in the future.”
“If I could give Renee 10 stars I would. She is amazing - kind, responsive, thoughtful, genuinely cares and showed a lot of heart while taking care of our very elderly cat when we were out of town. She kept us posted, gave us updates, sent us pictures, and was simply a delight. When we returned from our trip Renee had taken care of everything, made sure everything was tidy, and my cat was relaxed and happy and clearly well loved. Knowing our beloved pet (and family member) was in such good hands allowed me to actually relax!!!, which is priceless. I recommend Renee with lots of enthusiasm and zero reservations. She's a lifesaver!”
“Tanti gave my kitties all the love and attention they deserve while we went out of town. She did a fabulous job! Highly recommend Tanti and will certainly have her watch our kitties again the future”

About: I have had cats my entire life and have extensive experience caring for them through all stages of life. Growing up with cats taught me the importance of understanding their individual personalities, routines, and needs. In my adult life, I have had two cats of my own. One of them I raised from a kitten and cared for throughout his entire life until he was 13 years old. This experience gave me firsthand knowledge of kitten care, adult cat care, and the special attention and support senior cats need as they age. I am comfortable with daily feeding routines, litter box maintenance, administering medications when needed, and providing companionship while respecting each cat's unique temperament. Having lived with and cared for cats my whole life, I understand how important it is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for them.
About: I cannot remember a time where I haven’t owned a cat. From adopting them out of shelters to adopting them out of our garage; I have absolutely adored them. I’ve administered many medications throughout my time along with bottle fed kittens every 3-4 hours.
About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals cats, dogs, fish, and even plants! I love to help my friends, family, and more with walking their dog, feeding their cat, or watering plants! I work only a few days a week because I’m a stay at home mother so I would give your pup all my love. I’m available during the week from 11am - 8pm. I take my dogs on walks as well as play fetch at least once a day! I feed them twice a day and let them out every 2-3 hours. If i dog/cat sit for someone I go to their house 2 times a day to feed, walk, or whatever else I’m instructed to do.
“Avery is amazing! She did a great job taking care of my cat while I was out of town. She gave her lots of love and everything she needed. My cat loved her and even fell asleep on her lap, which I’ve never seen before. We hope to have her visit again in the future.”
“Melanie was fantastic taking care of my cat, Jimmy. I went out of state for Christmas and had her come twice a day for a week to feed him and clean his litter box. She sent me pics, videos and notes the whole time which was comforting since I had never left him for more than 2 days before this trip. She even took my trash and cleaned out the sink of his bowls. I can definitely recommend Melanie!”
About: I have taken care of cats for a long time. I sit for neighbors very frequently and have even watched them for owners who have both cats and dogs. I have cleaned litter boxes and I pay special attention to their food needs/needs in general as each cat is unique! Please let me know if your cat needs any accommodations!

On weekends my schedule can be more flexible depending on what activities I have going on. Any dogs that come into my home will be treated as if they were my own.

“Ellie G. is a great communicator with photo updates. The daycare day went well and Annie O was introduced to Ellie’s chickens and I’m sure she wanted to get a little closer but Ellie was great keeping Annie away from them. Annie also met Ellie’s dog and it appears that they both made a new friend. The day was a success.”
“Victor and Abigail were awesome and took extra steps to make sure our anxious pup had a great time. They sent us videos and pictures every day, which we really appreciated. After his first day in daycare, my dog was very excited to return on the following days. He seemed to really like the folks who took care of him and was nice and tired once I picked him up. Staying with these folks was definitely a mini vacation for my dog!”
“Lynn is very nice and kept me updated. Every so often she sent me pictures of Annie and their outings. Very communicative. I love that. We will definitely use Lynn again and will recommend her to friends. All in all it was a great day for Annie.”

We are also a couch/furniture friendly family if that is something that is important to you. We do have small children but both are use to dogs and love them! We also do not have a pet of our right currently and so your dog would definitely be the center of our attention.

I felt very comfortable immediately meeting Scott!! They kept in touch with us the whole day with updates and pictures!! If you are looking in the area they are def amazing!!”
“We’ve had a wonderful experience with Jared! He is always very flexible with scheduling, which I truly appreciate, and he consistently sends photos throughout the day that give me peace of mind. Bella absolutely loves going there—especially the trips to the park to play and burn off energy. She also adores children, so she gets extra excited on days when she can spend time with his daughter. It’s clear she feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend Jared to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Absolutely perfect first experience with rover. Maggie sets the bar high with a welcoming home environment. She know exactly what she is doing - let the dogs meet freely, run freely and he felt right at home. I was so nervous but knew right away he would be fine. She sent pics throughout the day for reassurance and to let me see my buddy. Thanks so much!”
“My husband and I were in town on vacation with our dog and she was having separation anxiety when we would leave her alone. So we booked with Sandra & she did awesome. Thank you so much for making our date night relaxing and not worrying about Kona. I would highly recommend Sandra. She was very nice and welcoming into her home and the neighborhood was nice. Thank you again!”

About: We’re a dog-loving family with experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels. We have two dogs of our own: a senior Lab/hound mix and a middle-aged Great Dane. We’re comfortable with everything from energetic playtime to older dogs who prefer a slower pace, and we’re happy to follow your dog’s normal routines, feeding schedule, and house rules. We both work hybrid schedules, so someone is home with the dogs most of the time. Dogs get regular outdoor breaks throughout the day and plenty of attention and interaction. We’re happy to accommodate dogs who need more activity as well as those who are content to relax and hang out with us. We have a large, fenced-in yard where dogs can safely get outside and play. Our fence is approximately 3 feet high and made of hog wire, so we’re best suited for dogs who aren’t jumpers or determined escape artists. Our own dogs respect the boundary. We also have a dog-loving 4-year-old, so dogs must be comfortable and safe around children. Our dogs are friendly and accustomed to sharing their space with other dogs. At night, visiting dogs sleep downstairs on their own dog bed or one of our designated “dog couches.” Crate-trained dogs are welcome to use their crate if that is what makes them most comfortable.
“Elisabeth was awesome! Ivy enjoyed her time spending the day here, and Elisabeth sent lots of updates, to include photos. Would definitely recommend her to care for your pup as well!”

About: I work as a Veterinarian Assistant for an amazing clinic! Ever since childhood, I knew animal caregiving was my future. I started in different 4H groups to start growing my knowledge in this field! When I was 13, I started working at a boarding Barn facility. At this facility, I took care of multiple different types of animals including dogs and cats! In high school, I took a majority of health science classes and agricultural classes including vet sciences. I am currently attending RCC to finish prerequisites for VT to start getting a veterinary license! I own 4 cats. Everyday is animal care, from basic feeding, grooming, cleaning to vet visits and cuddles. My furbaby, Olive, is a diabetic cat, so medication, vet appointments, and general care is so extremely important for her quality of life. I’ve owned dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I still work with local farms, so animal care is extremely important to me. Basic care for all animals includes food and clean water everyday. Litter gets scooped once a day and dogs get let out however many times they need. I am 100% willing to do extra care as needed for the animals and clients!

I will treat your pets how I would want someone to treat mine. I am comfortable around all size and breeds of dogs and cats as well as goats and chickens. I am self employed and have a very flexible schedule. I am available almost any time, including nights and weekends. Most schedules can be accommodated. I have 5 acres which about 1/2 acre is fenced in with 6-foot fencing. I can snuggle your dog on the couch or crate them if they feel more comfortable like that. I have my own personal dogs but keep them separate from other people's pets. If you leave directions of what your pets routine in your home is like I can provide for them in that manner.

“Mary was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! Yesterday she took care of our dogs all day during our wedding. She checked in on them three times and even delivered our dogs to our wedding venue so our brother could walk our dogs down the aisle during the ceremony. She hung out for the wedding, and then delivered them back to our hotel. She was so pleasant, followed every recommendation and request we made, and our dogs were so well cared for! She even went above and beyond walking the dogs for a long time before and after the wedding! If we lived locally in Newport News we would DEFINITELY us her again. I highly recommend her and her services!”
About: I've been caring for animals since I was 7 years old, and my love for pets has only grown over the years. As an adult, I worked at an animal shelter, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, needs, and backgrounds. I have also adopted and cared for three dogs of my own throughout every stage of their lives, from energetic puppies to senior dogs requiring extra patience, attention, and specialized care. This experience has given me a strong understanding of daily pet care, administering medications, recognizing changes in behavior, and providing the love and comfort pets need to feel safe and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your furry family members. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, companionship, or extra attention due to age or special needs, I am committed to providing reliable, compassionate care while you're away. I am currently in between jobs, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to provide your pets with the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. Whether your furry family member enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I can tailor my care to their individual needs and routine. As a lifelong pet owner with experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, I understand how important it is to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. From energetic puppies and playful kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care, I am committed to treating every animal as if they were my own. I have a fully fenced backyard with a 5-foot chain-link fence, providing a safe and secure space for your pet to play, explore, and enjoy the outdoors. I do not have neighbors directly adjacent to my yard, so there is minimal concern about pets being distracted or stressed by animals on the other side of the fence. I am a lifelong animal lover and currently share my home with a senior dog, whom I've raised since she was 8 weeks old, and a young cat who has been part of our family since he was 8 weeks old as well. Having cared for pets through every stage of life—from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets requiring extra attention—I understand that every animal has unique needs and routines. When your pet stays with me, they will be treated like a member of the family. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they can feel at home while you're away. I personally allow my pets on the furniture, but I fully respect each owner's preferences. If your pet has specific rules, routines, feeding schedules, medication needs, or restrictions, just let me know and I will be happy to follow them to ensure consistency and comfort during their stay. I believe communication is important, so I am also happy to provide updates, photos, and messages while your pet is in my care, giving you peace of mind knowing they are safe, happy, and well loved.
About: I provide reliable, loving care for dogs and cats. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine with walks, feeding, and attention. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy and secure while you’re away. I currently work part time 2 days a week in an ER. Since I’m out of school for the summer I have plenty of time to care and love on your fur baby I care for your pet in your home by following the daily routine. I can ensure you fur baby will be well taken care of and have plenty of play time. You can ever request pictures and videos!
“Candace did a FABULOUS job with our dogs, Banks and Brix. She was in constant communication with us and sent pictures so we could see they were having a good time and being well taken care of. Two thumbs up for Candace!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was little. I adore all breeds, ages, and sizes. I'm very attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I currently work at a dog pet resort, so I have plenty of experiences with all sorts of dogs. I currently work part time, and am available pretty often! My scheduling is flexible, and I'm very transparent about my availabilities. I prefer to work daylight hours, but thats not a hard rule for me. I've been interacting with dogs of various temperments for a long time, so I'm practiced at providing a safe environment for your dogs. I'm very respectful of any safety rules you may have, and will never cut corners when it comes to the well-being of your pup.
“the service was listed as Abigail, but Victor was actually our walker. Victor handled my two fellas very professionally, both dogs were always very anxious to hit the trail. Victor helped with putting on their walking gear, and was very flexible when we needed to reschedule because of rain. He sent daily reports to my email, showing their walking route and activities (bathroom and rest breaks). Thirty minute sessions were just right and both pups were ready to settle down for naps. My dogs were a 45# tall beagle and a similar weight Brittany Spaniel. I highly recommend this service and will use again when need arises. Thanks Victor.”

“We recently moved to the east coast and needed to find new dog sitters. Stephanie, Max, and their dog Callie were amazing! They took such great care of our high energy dog Luke.

I highly recommend them!”
“Teona and Louelyn were wonderful to out 1 year old Bassett Hound. We just moved to the area and had a wedding all the way in New York. I spent a few days researching the right sitter on Rover and struck gold with Teona and Louelyn! They have a clean home with plenty of space for your dog to roam and also a fenced in backyard. Teona sent pictures and daily updates and even gave my dog a bath! When I picked her up she was very happy. We will book with them again!”
“Lyra and Scott took great care of Ruby. They followed our instructions that we had for her and even gave her extra attention when she got a little sick.

We feel confident taking vacations knowing he’s in good hands!”

“These folks are simply wonderful. My pup loves nothing more than running in the woods and rough housing with good natured pups, and she had this in abundance here. This is a house of true animal lovers. The communication was great, my dog felt safe and like part of the family, and she came home exhausted and happy. You guys are the best!!”

“Oh my gosh! My boy Neeko had THE BEST time!!!! Cristen was great at sharing photos and videos during his 2 night weekend visit. Her communication is so good. Micheal playing out in the yard with him throwing the ball. The whole family gave Neeko lots of love as if he were their own. Once I picked Neeko up and got him home, he slept the rest of the day. He was completely worn out!! If he were a kid, I think he would be talking about his sleepover for days!!! Lol. I could not have found a more perfect family to love my baby. 🥰”
“Jared was exceptional. He and his daughter took in our two golden retrievers as their own and I think that’s all we can ask for as a pet parent. I would highly recommend anyone staying in the Williamsburg choose Jared as your pet sitter. We will definitely be using him again.”
“Karen was warm and friendly with both us and our dog. She sent regular updates while we were away. Our dog must really love Karen because she was barking protectively when I walked up to the door. We look forward to more visits with Karen!”

“Erin and the family were great. I needed a sitter for Lyla on short notice and fortunately they were available. The day I picked Lyla up, she slept most of the rest of the day. I took that as a sign that she had a fun time. I would book them again if I have another occasion.”
