“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.”
“My husband and I have 100% confidence in Chantal. She always provides great updates, is very flexible around drop off and pick up times— which is especially important when a train or a flight is delayed — and our dogs are treated as if they are her own, with lots of snuggling and play time. We have no anxieties about them while we’re gone. Highly recommended!”
“Kari and her family are so wonderful! They took such a great care of our baby while we were traveling for a while. Kari is also very accommodating. We are so thankful that we found Kari and her family as caregivers for Tofu.”
“Emily took wonderful care of our dog, Sunday. We weren’t sure what to expect at first, but her thoughtful updates quickly put us at ease. She was compassionate and attentive, especially given Sunday’s background as a shelter rescue, and made sure she felt safe and loved — complete with plenty of belly rubs. We would gladly book with Emily again and highly recommend her to other families.”
“So grateful for Tiffany! She took wonderful care of our puppy for us and we had such a peace of mind knowing that she was loved on and cared for! We will be back!”
“Joleen was great!!! Highly recommend!! When I dropped Ellie off she seemed so happy and pleased immediately with where she was. Throughout Ellie’s stay Joleen was great with keeping me updated and sending plenty of pics of how happy Ellie was with all of her new friends! I am very thankful that Ellie had such a positive experience.”
“Despite me having such a wonky and changing schedule, Wendy worked with me on times so awesomely. She sent me pics of my dog and i feel like he was taken care of amazingly. This was my first time doing something like rover and if I ever need a dog sitter again, I'm for sure coming back.”
“JeBecca absolutely LOVED her stay with Cheyanne and her family. Cheyanne sent several pictures everyday showing JeBecca playing with her other dogs/puppy. I am so thrilled that I have found such a loving family to watch over my fur baby when I have to go out of town. 10 out of 10, the BEST!”
“Alliyah was extremely communicative and accommodating. Her and her family helped our puppy feel at home while we were away for an extended period of time. I would recommend her to anyone that wants to have real peace of mind with who they leave their pet with and will be recommending her to all of our friends for future stays!”
“Marketa was AWESOME! She took great care of Maggie and I would greatly recommend her to anyone who is looking to board their pet in the Lynchburg area. We will definitely use Marketa on our next visit!”
“Layna D and her family did a wonderful job in caring for my dogs well being and kept me updated everyday with texts and pictures. Completely trustworthy and responsible and I highly recommend her for sitting services. If she’s available the next time I go out of town I will definitely rebook.”
“Falen and family were great with my dog! We received updates and pictures which made the experience more at ease! They also gave treats and cuddles which enhanced the experience for my pet as well. Thanks Falen! We’d recommend and request you in the future!”
“She was great! Sent us lots of photos! And made sure our pup was happy the whole time!! Her son was also a sweetheart and helped take care as well! Will definitely have our dog stay with them again!”
“Best. Sitter. EVER. I've tried and been happy (or not) with many boarders, but Jody goes way above and beyond. She's not just knowledgeable and reassuring, she's sweet and kind and will love your fur babies for you. I live in Roanoke, whereas she's in Moneta. But this was such a blessing!! I wanted somewhere Harriet could run and play and feel free and happy. Jody delivers this in a big way- she has several yards of varying sizes with over animals to play with. I kept telling my girl she was going to summer camp, and it turned out to be so true. I don't think she even missed me that much! Please don't let the distance deter you. Jody even offers pickup and drop off services. Harriet gets so anxious going to a boarder's house, but as soon as Jody pulled up, Harriet started wagging her tail and jumped right in her car before I could say goodbye. She's with the dogs all the time- you won't be leaving your pup with someone who leaves them alone. Harriet is very social, and I can tell from just the pictures and videos that her physical, mental, and emotional needs are being met in every way. Please seriously consider Jody- she's phenomenal. I don't really want to tell you this because I want to keep her all to myself, but that would be a gross injustice. She's the best. I won't even consider anyone else again- I'll just move my vacation plans around.”
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.

“Mia took great care of our cat Olive while we were gone on a trip! She was careful to follow the care instructions we had and went above and beyond to give Olive great care! She gave us detailed updates including photos after every visit which we loved and looked forward to! While Olive was in her care Mia was attentive to details and let us know of anything we needed to know while we were gone. Would definitely recommend!”

About: My sister has had her cat since 2021. Though Cora is not technically mine, I treat her as so. I feed her when my sister forgets to, refill her water when it is running low, and love on her with no end. Pets and kisses and cuddles is something I give her freely.

About: Cats have been part of my life for many years, and I understand that every cat has a unique personality and comfort level. In addition to caring for my own cats over the years, I have also rescued and fostered cats and kittens, providing daily care, socialization, feeding, and monitoring for health concerns. I am experienced with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, administering medications when needed, and providing enrichment and companionship. Whether your cat is outgoing and playful or prefers a quiet environment and gentle attention, I will respect their individual needs and help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. As a pet owner and former animal rescue operator, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I will care for your cat with patience, compassion, and attention to detail, treating them as if they were my own.

“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!”
“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!”
“Layman was a lifesaver when we needed a last minute dog sitter to attend our son’s graduation. She was flexible with the timing of our return as we knew traffic could be bad getting back. Our Bella seemed comfortable with Layna and got along with her dog Chance.”
About: I’ve always had a pet dog. Our dog is older (10) but she is still energetic and loves other dogs! This will be a family effort to take good care of your beloved pet! I am currently home full time. I already care for our own pet so adding another would be seamless. Your pet is welcome to join my home! I have a backyard for them to run around in. It’s fenced but has some openings. I also have a lead leash for them. I will take good care of your pet - providing what they need and want.
“Falen hosted doggie day care for a shelter foster dog that we have. She was so accommodating for my schedule and even offered to keep him overnight since I would be dropping him off again the next morning. Thank you to Falen and Dani for a positive experience for both me and the foster dog.”
“I picked this family to watch Boo for the day while I was in town visiting our daughter for her birthday and am happy I did. Heather and her son did a WONDERFUL job with her! We would definitely recommend them!”

I also have a crate and normally I am home and just let my dogs play as much as they want.
“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!”

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: Hey hey, my name is Taylor and I’m located in Rustburg VA, I’ve been around dogs my whole life, from small to large. Animals are truly my happiness. I’ve house sat in the past that helped me to learn all I can about different breeds. I’m willing to travel anywhere from Danville, Martinsville, and Lynchburg. I work full time but with my schedule it is very flexible after 12pm. If all goes well would love to make this a full time opportunity. I have a large yard for your pet to play in as well as a dog of my own that will give your dog some company. She is very friendly and loves to play ball.
About: Hello! I have 2 years of experience with dog walking + a handful of occasions where I have been trusted to pet-sit / board. I consider myself a loyal dog (and cat!) owner with a great work ethic. For the 2 years of dog walking, I walked a German Shepard — his name was Val. I walked Val consistently, in weather that ranged from 90-40 degrees Fahrenheit, up until his owner moved into a nursing home and Val was rehomed. I loved the big guy like he was my own dog - filling his water, scooping out his dog food, brushing him out, and playing fetch. I never missed a day I was scheduled unless there was a sudden change in plans (I was sick, she cancelled my walk, or an event took place where I couldn't arrive in time to walk him). Recently, my family has adopted our beloved goldendoodle puppy — Corduroy. I love him unconditionally, and so much of my free time is spent helping him get his energy out. I am a homeschooler, with all days free except for Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings. For walking purposes, I am available any time it is not dark outside and not preoccupied. Please note that my price for drop-ins, overnight care, and dog walking vary by location. The closer you are, the cheaper it will be. Below is how I determine payment: 0-5 miles from my home and/or workplace = $40 per night / drop in / walk Every additional 0.5 mile is $1 I make sure everything is taken care of. From basic expectations to leaving the house exactly how I found it — if not better. If it’s not my house or my pet, then I’m obligated to go by my clients rules.

About: I’ve been in a constant home of taking care of animals from a young age. I’ve trained over 6 dogs for basic training and have homed three cats. I’m versatile when it comes to new puppies as well as senior dogs. I’m a part time student so I’m mostly free in the evenings on weekdays and the weekends. For stop-bys and walks, I’m also free anytime before 9 am. In my own home I’ve got a lot of land for my own pets to roam within our land boundaries. Walking is a big part of giving pets time for exercise as well as calmer inside moments along with breakfast and dinner. Taking animals on rides to introduce them to different aspects of our world (exposure- therapy).
“Brittney was fantastic. She supervised our puppy while my fiancé and I did engagement photos. She brought her own homemade treats which he loved. Brittney made our lives immensely easier that day and clearly enjoys caring for dogs. If I lived in Charlottesville, I would trust my dog with her all the time.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was in preschool. My family has always had lots of pets throughout the house all through my childhood! I have lots of experience in giving baths, medicine, lots of cuddles and care! I will be sending plenty of pictures so you can see what your pet is up to at all times! I am currently working for myself while also working from home. This gives me all the time in the world to be just as attentive as you would be to your fur baby! I currently live in a nice neighborhood with plenty of grassy areas for potty breaks and open space for walks/jogs. My house is large enough to keep small dogs and larger dogs separated to ensure there are no accidents.
“Lauren was excellent!!! I will definitely request her in the future. My dogs loved her immediately. She was the Best dog care provider that I ever had. I would highly recommend her to my friends and family. We just loved her.”

“Emily took wonderful care of our dog, Sunday. We weren’t sure what to expect at first, but her thoughtful updates quickly put us at ease. She was compassionate and attentive, especially given Sunday’s background as a shelter rescue, and made sure she felt safe and loved — complete with plenty of belly rubs. We would gladly book with Emily again and highly recommend her to other families.”
“So grateful for Tiffany! She took wonderful care of our puppy for us and we had such a peace of mind knowing that she was loved on and cared for! We will be back!”
“Joleen was great!!! Highly recommend!! When I dropped Ellie off she seemed so happy and pleased immediately with where she was. Throughout Ellie’s stay Joleen was great with keeping me updated and sending plenty of pics of how happy Ellie was with all of her new friends! I am very thankful that Ellie had such a positive experience.”
“JeBecca absolutely LOVED her stay with Cheyanne and her family. Cheyanne sent several pictures everyday showing JeBecca playing with her other dogs/puppy. I am so thrilled that I have found such a loving family to watch over my fur baby when I have to go out of town. 10 out of 10, the BEST!”
“Alliyah was extremely communicative and accommodating. Her and her family helped our puppy feel at home while we were away for an extended period of time. I would recommend her to anyone that wants to have real peace of mind with who they leave their pet with and will be recommending her to all of our friends for future stays!”
“Marketa was AWESOME! She took great care of Maggie and I would greatly recommend her to anyone who is looking to board their pet in the Lynchburg area. We will definitely use Marketa on our next visit!”
“Falen and family were great with my dog! We received updates and pictures which made the experience more at ease! They also gave treats and cuddles which enhanced the experience for my pet as well. Thanks Falen! We’d recommend and request you in the future!”
“Best. Sitter. EVER. I've tried and been happy (or not) with many boarders, but Jody goes way above and beyond. She's not just knowledgeable and reassuring, she's sweet and kind and will love your fur babies for you. I live in Roanoke, whereas she's in Moneta. But this was such a blessing!! I wanted somewhere Harriet could run and play and feel free and happy. Jody delivers this in a big way- she has several yards of varying sizes with over animals to play with. I kept telling my girl she was going to summer camp, and it turned out to be so true. I don't think she even missed me that much! Please don't let the distance deter you. Jody even offers pickup and drop off services. Harriet gets so anxious going to a boarder's house, but as soon as Jody pulled up, Harriet started wagging her tail and jumped right in her car before I could say goodbye. She's with the dogs all the time- you won't be leaving your pup with someone who leaves them alone. Harriet is very social, and I can tell from just the pictures and videos that her physical, mental, and emotional needs are being met in every way. Please seriously consider Jody- she's phenomenal. I don't really want to tell you this because I want to keep her all to myself, but that would be a gross injustice. She's the best. I won't even consider anyone else again- I'll just move my vacation plans around.”
“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! ❤️”
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.
“We had a great experience with John and his wife. They kept us informed and our dogs clearly had a great time and were well cared for. They have lots of backyard space for our dogs to run which they need.”
“Katie goes beyond with my Gabe. Katie sent updates and pictures during his stay. You know your pet is in the best hands they can be in without you. She includes your fur babies in family functions and your fur baby will become part of the family during their stay. We will be booking again.”

“Cody was amazing! Molly was so comfortable around him from the first meeting. Molly is 9yrs old and this was the first time I ever left her with someone who wasn't family. Cody communicated throughout Mollys stay and gave me peace of mind to enjoy my vacation!”
“Kasalyn was absolutely wonderful. She took great care of Addyson and Addyson had a great time. Kasalyn was very kind, made me feel comfortable and eased my mind about leaving my baby. She also send lots of awesome pictures and updates. Thanks for all you did Kasalyn😊”
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!

“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!!”
