About: I have taken care of dogs for over 10 years. Overseas during covid that was my main job and I had over 25 clients. I can help with medications given, dog walks, dog check in or do in home boarding. I do live a short walk from a park, so can also do playtime and walks at the park as well! I am available for drop ins visits, long or short walks or boarding in my home. If you are Active Duty, going TDY, etc. Or just a fur parent with no help, please let me know ahead of time so I can help you the best I can! I have a fenced in back yard with a lot of space. I have 3 senior dogs that love other dogs, but I also have plenty of space to keep dogs separated if needed. I also live walking distance from my local park. Smoke free home.
“Caring sitters. Julie provided me with daily updates and pictures of my babies. This is the longest stretch that I had left them and the daily updates made me feel better. I will definitely use their services again! Thank you, Julie and Kenneth, Ethan and of course Louis, their fur baby.”
“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.”
About: Hi there! I'm Leila, and I've been passionate about caring for dogs since childhood. Growing up in a home filled with at least two dogs at any given time (sometimes as many as four!), I've developed a deep understanding of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it's a playful puppy or a gentle senior, I've got the experience to cater to their unique needs. What truly sets me apart as a pet sitter is my ability to offer continuous companionship, thanks to my remote work setup. Your furry companion will never experience loneliness or neglect while you're away. I'm fully committed to ensuring your pet feels loved, secure, and content in your absence. My services go beyond basic care. I also provide specialized assistance such as puppy training and senior dog care. I recognize the significance of positive reinforcement and patience with young dogs, and I'm well-versed in the extra care and gentleness required for our senior canine friends. My goal is to provide you with complete peace of mind, knowing that your beloved family member is in the best hands possible. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend soon! As a remote worker, I can seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily and weekly routine. This means I can prioritize your pet's needs as required, ensuring they receive the attention and care they deserve. Whether it's daily walks, feeding times, or simply providing companionship, I adapt my schedule to accommodate your pet's unique requirements. I'm committed to providing personalized care tailored to your pet's needs, ensuring they feel comfortable and content in their environment. I prioritize maintaining their familiar routine and following any specific instructions you've provided. By keeping your pet in their own space, I aim to minimize stress and ensure they receive the highest level of care. Please note that, at this time, I exclusively offer pet-sitting services in your home, ensuring your pet's comfort and security while you're away.
“I truly appreciated the time, communication and care Diezel received during his stay with Lisa and her family. I had a feeling of peace and comfort through pictures and reports. When I initially met with Lisa she projected a warm and genuine feeling which allowed me to feel safe in knowing my dog was in her care.”
“It was Bandits 1st time away from us. Megan and her husband were very welcoming. They took great care of him. She very knowledgeable and loves all animals. If you need a sitter, look no further than Megan.”
“David was amazing and truly understanding. Our children had a track meet 4hrs away that went over in time by 3-4hrs. David’s flexibility to still provide loving care for our furbaby meant a lot to us.”
“Melissa and Jeremy are the best! Captain warmed right up to them and felt like he was at home. Melissa and Jeremy are very communicative and accommodating. I am at ease with my dog in their care. Highly recommend to anyone in the Norfolk area. Also, great picture and photo updates throughout the day.”
“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!”
“Rachel took very good care of Fendi. She sent texts and pictures. Fendi has a new boyfriend! Her son! lol she was following him around. lol thanks for taking care of her. 😊”
“Amazing from beginning to end. Prompt communication and updates. She was very attentive to my dog’s needs for a long weekend while I was out of town and made sure he was comfortable. I would definitely book with Michelle again!”
“Kim was so supportive. This was our first time with Rover and not with a Boarding facility. She was communicative and friendly. She put an anxious mama at ease. We will absolutely reach out to her when we need help again.”
“Had a delay with our flight picking her up and Stacy was able to accommodate kiya for another night! Sent pictures and had other dogs for her to play with. I know my puppy had an amazing time and Stacy was truly amazing. Will be booking again!”
“Jess was amazing!! She sent me so many pictures of my sweet boy while we were gone. My dog also eats a different food and she took care of him so well. Will definitely use her again and highly recommend!”
“She was very caring and responsive. It was Yuki’s first time at a sitter and I felt like the parent on the first day of preschool. She alleviated me by sending photos and videos. She is my YUKI Sitter!”

“Exceptional! Super communicative and clearly took care of Hanzo like he was their own. Incredibly happy with how well they took care of him! Will absolutely book again!”
“Ms. Crystal was so kind, loving and patient with our tiny 3 month old Teddy! Puppies require a lot of love and attention as they are like sponges soaking everything in at a fast pace. They are also a lot more work than a trained adult dog. Ms. Crystal treated Teddy like her very own “grand dog”. She sent pictures and videos throughout the weekend to give us a glimpse of their day and to reassure us he was doing very well. I’m a meticulous person and she followed all of teddy’s care instructions. She even provided us with tips as new puppy parents. He was calm and relaxed when we picked him up and Ms Crystal even gave him a new toy that he loves! We are so happy we found her! We look forward to booking her first years to come!”

“Kelly was incredible! She really rolled with the punches & took amazing care of our two girls— including giving medication to our spazzy one! We will definitely keep her in mind when looking for sitters in the future!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience, thanks to Sarah! My husband and I needed a sitter for our cat while we were out of town. Sarah was easy to work with and accommodating from the very beginning - not to mention super friendly! We felt so comfortable leaving Greycie in her care after we had our meet and greet - and she did not disappoint. We received daily photos and a report card at each visit to put our minds at ease - our girl was in good hands. Not only did Sarah take great care of Greycie, our tomato and basil plants completely took off under her watch! (Bonus for those of you who need a plant or two watered while you’re away. 😜) We highly recommend Sarah if you’re in need of a trustworthy sitter for your pet babies. We will definitely be utilizing her services again in the future! 🐈⬛🖤”

“Chris was awesome and took such great care of my fur babies! I got daily updates and though I know they likely ran and hid when he arrived each day, he let me know he spoke with them and played with their toys for a bit so they could hear. Upon my return, I got a warm welcome from both of The Boys and could tell that they were more relaxed. I didn't get the cold shoulder treatment as I typically do. I will definitely call on Chris again and I would highly recommend him!!”
About: What sets me apart is that I truly understand cats and respect their individual personalities. I don’t force interaction—whether your cat is playful, shy, or independent, I meet them where they are and earn their trust at their pace.

“Milena was absolutely amazing! She was great at communicating and being patient with my babies! I have one dog that can be difficult at times so she updated me when things were rocky and didn't give up on him. I'll definitely be re-booking with her!”

About: Ever since I was young animals have played a huge role in my life. From my first dog to the mini zoo I have today. I am familiar with many breeds of dogs and cats as well as reptiles and recognize each one has its own characteristics and personality. Whether it's a walk, play time, or just someone to keep your pet company, I will appreciate and enjoy my time with them. I am a stay at home father of two. I am available most days. I have been working with pets for the past 4 years M-F with the occasional weekend visits. I love what I do and I take pride in my ability to befriend all pets. I believe each and every person has a responsibility, when they take on a pet, to give it the best life with a loving owner. I have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 4 lizards, 2 turtles, and 4 fish who all get attention suited to their needs and desires while also being attentive to proper and healthy care.
About: Hi, I'm Shayree. Need someone to look after your pet for the day? Don't prefer the loud and stressful environment of a commercial daycare and boarding facility? I’ve got you covered! Whether they love to play, nap, or just hang out, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re out. My goal is to give them a stress-free, happy day with plenty of attention, playtime, and love—just like they’d get at home. Drop them off, go about your day, and rest easy knowing they’re in good hands. Let’s make sure your pet has a great day too! Message me if you have any questions or want to set up a visit! My routine of pet care includes walks for exercise, a routine feeding schedule along with playtime and cuddles. I also take time to give the dogs a little extra care by brushing them if they like to be brushed and of course they get to socialize with my Poodle Joey. Caring for pets in my home consists of creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. This includes starting with an initial consultation where we will meet and greet to ensure that my home is a good fit for your pet and to address any specific needs or concerns that you may have. During the meeting I'll gather information about your pets routine, dietary preferences, medical history and behavioral habits.

About: Hi there! My name is Connor and I have been working in the animal care field for 6 years. Not unlike my clients in the grooming salon, I ensure every animal under my responsibility is comfortable, happy, and healthy. As a former groomer I am very well versed in animal first aid and animal care including, but not limited to: Bathing, nail trimming, nail buffing, teeth brushing, and nutrition. If say you have a husky who sheds every where in your house, I am willing to perform grooming on your dog to sure they stay comfortable and your house stays clean. I look forward to working with you and please contact me if you have any questions. Thank you! Being that I am a pet parents of 5 animals myself, I understand that every animal is different and I cater to those needs, whether a people-shy Rottweiler, or a clingy pug, I ensure everyone has enough attention! I ensure that the treats and reward systems I use make them happy and excited to see me again. An example would be an old basset hound that would always run out to see me because I had his favorite treats and a husky to run around with him.
About: Hi! My name is Fallon and I am here to give loving, patient, reliable care to your pets. I have been around animals my whole life. This includes dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and rabbits. I enjoy all of them. I have previously worked as a vet assistant . I am a frequent visitor to the Isle of Wight animal shelter, where i walk the dogs. I have also fostered both cats and dogs and found them their forever homes. I am patient, loving, reliable and have experience handling all types of breeds. Please contact me for your animal needs . Thank you! I’m a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule. I am available mostly in the mornings when my kids are in school and can do some afternoons Safety and trust with dogs come from understanding their behavior and creating a calm, respectful environment. When people interact gently, respect a dog’s space, and pay attention to signs of stress, dogs are more likely to feel secure and respond positively. Consistent routines, supervision—especially around children—and clear boundaries help build trust, reduce fear, and keep both people and dogs safe.

Whether it's a playful puppy or a gentle senior, I've got the experience to cater to their unique needs. What truly sets me apart as a pet sitter is my ability to offer continuous companionship, thanks to my remote work setup. Your furry companion will never experience loneliness or neglect while you're away. I'm fully committed to ensuring your pet feels loved, secure, and content in your absence. My services go beyond basic care. I also provide specialized assistance such as puppy training and senior dog care. I recognize the significance of positive reinforcement and patience with young dogs, and I'm well-versed in the extra care and gentleness required for our senior canine friends. My goal is to provide you with complete peace of mind, knowing that your beloved family member is in the best hands possible. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend soon! As a remote worker, I can seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily and weekly routine. This means I can prioritize your pet's needs as required, ensuring they receive the attention and care they deserve. Whether it's daily walks, feeding times, or simply providing companionship, I adapt my schedule to accommodate your pet's unique requirements. I'm committed to providing personalized care tailored to your pet's needs, ensuring they feel comfortable and content in their environment. I prioritize maintaining their familiar routine and following any specific instructions you've provided. By keeping your pet in their own space, I aim to minimize stress and ensure they receive the highest level of care. Please note that, at this time, I exclusively offer pet-sitting services in your home, ensuring your pet's comfort and security while you're away.
“I truly appreciated the time, communication and care Diezel received during his stay with Lisa and her family. I had a feeling of peace and comfort through pictures and reports. When I initially met with Lisa she projected a warm and genuine feeling which allowed me to feel safe in knowing my dog was in her care.”
“It was Bandits 1st time away from us. Megan and her husband were very welcoming. They took great care of him. She very knowledgeable and loves all animals. If you need a sitter, look no further than Megan.”
“David was amazing and truly understanding. Our children had a track meet 4hrs away that went over in time by 3-4hrs. David’s flexibility to still provide loving care for our furbaby meant a lot to us.”
“Melissa and Jeremy are the best! Captain warmed right up to them and felt like he was at home. Melissa and Jeremy are very communicative and accommodating. I am at ease with my dog in their care. Highly recommend to anyone in the Norfolk area. Also, great picture and photo updates throughout the day.”
“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!”
“Rachel took very good care of Fendi. She sent texts and pictures. Fendi has a new boyfriend! Her son! lol she was following him around. lol thanks for taking care of her. 😊”
“Amazing from beginning to end. Prompt communication and updates. She was very attentive to my dog’s needs for a long weekend while I was out of town and made sure he was comfortable. I would definitely book with Michelle again!”
“Kim was so supportive. This was our first time with Rover and not with a Boarding facility. She was communicative and friendly. She put an anxious mama at ease. We will absolutely reach out to her when we need help again.”
“Had a delay with our flight picking her up and Stacy was able to accommodate kiya for another night! Sent pictures and had other dogs for her to play with. I know my puppy had an amazing time and Stacy was truly amazing. Will be booking again!”
“She was very caring and responsive. It was Yuki’s first time at a sitter and I felt like the parent on the first day of preschool. She alleviated me by sending photos and videos. She is my YUKI Sitter!”
“Exceptional! Super communicative and clearly took care of Hanzo like he was their own. Incredibly happy with how well they took care of him! Will absolutely book again!”
“Ms. Crystal was so kind, loving and patient with our tiny 3 month old Teddy! Puppies require a lot of love and attention as they are like sponges soaking everything in at a fast pace. They are also a lot more work than a trained adult dog. Ms. Crystal treated Teddy like her very own “grand dog”. She sent pictures and videos throughout the weekend to give us a glimpse of their day and to reassure us he was doing very well. I’m a meticulous person and she followed all of teddy’s care instructions. She even provided us with tips as new puppy parents. He was calm and relaxed when we picked him up and Ms Crystal even gave him a new toy that he loves! We are so happy we found her! We look forward to booking her first years to come!”
“Lisa was amazing through the entire process. We scheduled a meet and greet prior to the stay and things went smoothly. She sent pictures and updates of my two pups and they loved staying with her. I would definitely recommend and use her again!”
“This was our first time leaving our little Golden doodle with Samantha. I will say, I was a bit intimidated by leaving him with a pit bull there, but upon meeting the pit bull he was the sweetest big dog ever. My worries immediately vanished! There were a couple other dogs there, so that was nice. There was one dog a bit too interested in my little guy, so I didn’t want to leave until he calmed down. Samantha never made me feel rushed to leave or weird. She was super patient and asking me if I wanted the dogs split up, or inside or outside. I really thought that said a lot about the person I was leaving our baby with and I really liked that. I say all that to say, you can’t always control how dogs will interact with each other, but you can control how you react to them and Samantha was very calm, kind and friendly. She never looked overwhelmed or nervous. She was a bit embarrassed I think because of the initial behavior of this other dog she was caring for, but I understood that wasn’t a reflection of her care. We left out little guy there 3 days and she communicated through the day with updates, sent photos and even went the extra step of boiling and egg to mix it with my dogs food since we do that for him at home too. I’m thankful we found someone to watch our guy for when we need it! Highly recommend! 10 out of 10!”
