“Our senior dog is always so well taken care of and loved on staying here. I can tell Moose feels right at home and comfortable from all the pictures shared! It is so comforting knowing that he is in such good hands while we are away- thank you Amy!”
“From the very start, Matt impressed us with his prompt, thoughtful, and thorough communication. That same level of care carried through our meet-and-greet and throughout our puppy’s stay. We loved receiving his twice-daily updates and photos — it was clear our dog was not only well cared for but truly happy. When we returned from our trip abroad, jet lagged and exhausted, Matt gladly agreed to keep our pup an extra night so we could rest. When we picked him up, it was obvious how loved and well looked after he’d been. We couldn’t recommend Matt more highly and will definitely be booking with him again.”
“Terry was great! Terry is very caring, responsive, and sent pictures to show us how much fun Simon was having. Can't wait to have her care for our Schnoodle baby again. :)”
“Cyndi was awesome! Kept both of our 100+ pounders and never flinched! They were so happy with her I thought they may not want to come home! We will definitely be booking another stay with Cyndi!”
“Thank you so much for taking great care of my girl! Appreciate the updates, all the pictures and your flexibility for adding a day! Will be happy to book with you again!”
“Amy was a delight through the entire process. She sent pictures and videos and took such good care of my dog that he almost didn’t want to leave. I highly recommend her services!”
“Kristen and Chris were excellent to our dog. They were great with communication and pictures. Our Daisy was very happy with them and her new friend, Wallie.”
“Sharisse and her family were great hosts!! Mateo felt comfortable from the moment he got there!! She sent photos and videos of him playing, walking and having fun. We will definitely rebook. Thank you for taking such good care of him while I enjoyed my vacation.”
“Super appreciate Alexandra! She took great care of our cat while we were away. Would 100% trust my animals with her again. Could tell how loved my cat was during the time we were gone! Received lots of updates.”
“Sheri is amazing, amazing and even more amazing! She took care of my little pal just like I would. I received daily pics and updates and I can't say enough great things about her care. Thanks again for everything!”
“Jessica was absolutely amazing. She sent me a lot of pictures of Shaggy and kept me up-to-date of his progress. She let me know what he ate and how he did throughout the day super communicative. Best experience I’ve had with Rover.”
“We just moved to the area and Pamela and Paul watched our anxious dog Harley for 2 weeks while we were on vacation. Harley did not show any of her typical anxiety cues and she had a great time at their home and with their sweet dog Marlowe. I highly recommend them as sitters and we look forward to more stays in the future.”
“Nathan did a phenomenal job with our dog Moose. He was attentive, patient, and met us for a meet and greet which helped out a ton. He was very easy to work with, flexible, and thorough. We would definitely book a stay with Nathan again.”
“My dog, Coco, had an amazing time during her stay! I got multiple pictures and videos daily of her playing with the other dogs. I never had to worry about Coco while we were away on vacation! I hope to be able to rebook with Wylie in the future.”
“Anne was awesome with caring for our Teagan. She loved her like she was her own little puppy! I know Teagan felt loved and well cared for. She doesn't snuggle with just anybody! :)”
“Michelle was AMAZING with my dog. My dog is a special needs dog. (He can't do stairs, has anxiety accidents, needs medication, etc.) I so rarely leave my dog with anyone else because of this. But Michelle didn't make any of his needs feel like a burden. Her and her family were so warm toward him and very attentive to his idiosyncrasies. He got along with the kids, who were sensitive to his need to warm up to people. He ran around the house and was so happy to be there with the family. Michelle sent updates multiple times a day with pictures/videos and a report on how he was doing: if he went to the bathroom, what he ate, and what his mood was like. I will be booking with her again and will very easily recommend!”
“Im so glad my little guy got to stay with Emily and her daughter! He came home happy and healthy, and Emily sent some photos and updates while we were away. Great and quick to communicate! Highly recommend.”
“Grace was so welcoming for Oliver's first stay. He enjoyed her yard and hanging with her dogs and their toy basket. Grace shared lots of updates and made sure Oliver was able to settle in quickly. I felt he was in great hands while we were out of town and I look forward to Oliver spending his next stay with Grace.”

About: I have taken care of my babies every day for the past 4 years and previous as well. Previous meaning I have also taken care of my grandmothers cats as well since they were born. Bottle fed and everything. My babies are the most precious animals in the world to me including my pups as well. I would adopt/rescue more if I could!
“Brandi is fantastic. She played with our cat, kept things and liter box clean, and made sure he was fed.. She kept him happy the week we were gone and he wasn’t even angry at us when we got home.”
“Shelby was great! She was available last minute to stop by to feed our cat, and was very professional and had great communication! Highly recommend and will be using her in the future.”
“Steven gave my cats such special attention and care while I was away on international travel. I was reassured of their overall care and the specific needs of each one. So grateful for that special focus!”
“Lee seemed like he really enjoyed our young cat Oslo’s playful and confident attitude, and Oslo really liked having a new friend to visit him. We felt much better knowing Lee would be there to drop in and check on him over the weekend. Oslo was a happy kitty when we returned. Thank you Lee!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Laurel
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I have a large variety of experience with dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds. I have had a myriad of pet-sitting jobs—for friends, family, and strangers! I also worked as a Veterinary Assistant for years when was younger, so I can work with dogs and cats of all mannerisms and at all stages of their lives. I am completely comfortable medicating or attending to any special needs. I work remotely so I will be home to give your pet all the attention they may need any day of the week. Pet care fits very easily in my routine since I have 2 of my own! I live in a townhome and have a small fenced in yard that is good for potty breaks and some outdoor chilling, but there are also plenty of areas around me to walk the dogs. I have a 5-year-old 65 lb mixed breed dog named Baloo and a floofy orange cat named Bennett, so any dogs staying with me would need to be dog/cat friendly (or at least tolerating). If I come into your home, I am respectful of your space and able to follow instructions well.
“I’m so grateful for Pamela & Paul. They make every effort to do what is best for my dog (exercise, food, social) and let me know if there’s a concern. My dog is so very happy when she sees we have arrived at their house. She can’t wait to go inside.”
“Zaria is wonderful with dogs. My little ones tend to be shy and skittish with strangers but not with her. They were comfortable immediately. It was such a relief to know they would be happy with her. I HIGHLY recommend Zaria to take for your fur babies too!”
“Matt is amazing !! I moved to Richmond for work for 13 weeks and he has made my life easier taking care of my 1 year old puppy, Paige. His dog, Cooper is super super sweet. And Paige comes home exhausted from all the fun she has had ! Very grateful for Matt’s help”
“Vannessa is very reliable and sweet! My puppy loves her. She sends pics/vids throughout the day. Its a bonus that she lives 5mins from me. Grateful to have found her as I wasn’t expecting to get Ace so soon. So thank you very much for all you do, it is more than appreciated!”
“Sheri was incredible. Made plenty of time for our dog and made sure he was comfortable and received lots of care. Sent pics and updates throughout the day. Will 100% call her again if we need a sitter!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all kinds since I was 5 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to care for their dogs and cats of all sizes while they travel or during emergencies. I love spoiling pets whenever I get the chance, and I treat every dog or cat as if they were my own. I do work a hybrid schedule and I’m also able to work from your home as well while sitting. I have plenty of time after or even before that to care for any pet that’s in my care. I’m free and available! I have a fenced in backyard and two other fur babies that will also keep your fur babies company and they have a lot of energy as well. I have enough space within my home to crate your puppies/dogs if needed.
“We are very appreciative of Amanda and her husband for taking great care of our boys! Amanda is very communicative, caring and flexible which has been critical for our dog care needs. Can’t wait for our pups’ next stay!”
“My pup was happy and healthy when picked up. Farrah is great and you can tell takes great care when dogsitting. I plan to use her ongoing and trust that my dog is safe and cared for.”
“Ashley and her family were wonderful in watching my sweet puppy Banks for the day! I was in desperate need of a last minute sitter and Ashley stepped in to help. This was my first time away from Banks and I was overjoyed that he came home happy and well cared for! I would absolutely hire Ashely again and I am so thankful for such an amazing experience :)”
“Cozmel took great care of our Ziggy! Ziggy made a new friend with Shep, and they enjoyed playing together in the large fenced-in back yard. Cozmel communicated well before, during, and after, making us at ease knowing our dog was getting the care we wanted. Will definitely request another doggy day care visit in the future!”
About: Hi! I’m a dependable, caring dog lover who treats every pet as if they were my own. I understand that pets are family, and my goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or feeding, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Why Choose Me? ✔ Patient, attentive, and reliable ✔ Clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment ✔ Regular updates with photos and messages ✔ Genuinely love spending time with animals I work from home, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I also have a friendly dog of my own, so your pup will have a built-in buddy for play and socialization. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to stick closely to your dog’s routine, provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love. Your dog will never be left alone for long and will be treated like part of the family. I care for pets as if they were my own, with safety, trust, and comfort as my top priorities. In my home, pets stay in a clean, calm environment with a fully fenced yard for secure outdoor play and potty breaks. I also have crates available for dogs who are crate-trained or need a quiet, safe space to relax.
“Loren has been absolutely amazing. She responded very quickly, we had a fantastic meet & greet, and I knew she'd take great care of Professor. He had a great time spending the day with Loren. I'd highly recommend her!”
“Always satisfied with Srujana’s care and enthusiasm when looking after Tenor. The pup always comes back happy, and most importantly, tuckered you after playing with Rex all day.”

“This was the first time I have ever used this app/service and Taylor was absolutely amazing and quick to respond (which was amazing as my request was same day). She was so patient and gentle with my dog as he can be very wary/scared of strangers, but she did a great job of giving him time to warm up to her! I could tell he was absolutely ready for a nap after the walk.”
“Mark took great care of our puppy. He was very quick to respond to my request (it was somewhat short notice) and was a lifesaver. He kept us updated and paid attention to our dogs needs. I highly recommend Mark and will be using him in the future.”
“Laura has been a great, consistent, and communicative dog walker for my pups while I’m off at work. She sends wonderful photos that show my boys are happy and healthy and in great hands! Thank you Laura!”
“Very flexible in scheduling visits, a very nice and friendly personality, took detailed notes on his visits, and was very loving and friendly to my dog. He is the first person I go to if I need someone to check in on my dog.”
“Brandi was so great with my dogs while I was away. She sent me a detailed report about their behaviors while on their walk. I received multiple great pictures of my babies attached to the report and it made me feel so much better while I was away. As someone who is a first time user of Rover, I am so glad to have found someone who is knowledgeable, caring, and willing to help in any way she can. I highly recommend Brandi to anyone who loves their furbabies”
“Mandy was phenomenal and I know that Mickey enjoyed every minute of his time with her to the fullest extent of his heart!! She exhibits so much care and I'll definitely be continuing with her services, much to Mickey's delight!”
“Shannon was huge help walking our dog Nora after my foot surgery. She was responsible, communicative, and took some cute pictures of Nora during their walks! We will definitely book again.”
About: Took a break from Rover for a few years but am now back and excited to help care for your pets! I have grown up with dogs my whole life and love caring for them. I had an 18 year old Dachshund and currently have a 13 year old lab mix, so I am used to caring for adult-senior dogs and am knowledgeable on giving medications. I work from home right now so I have flexibility. I will treat your dog as if it’s my own, lots of love, treats, and belly rubs! I can’t wait to meet you and your dog! Please reach out if you have any questions. I currently work from home during the week so I am flexible on the time and length of drop in visits and mid day walks! I can easily adapt to the care that your fur baby is used to receiving from you! I know all dogs have their own special set of instructions and will follow them to the letter.
About: All my life, I have helped animals in trouble or strays, turning them into truly loved and cared for pets. I spent most of my life living on a farm, volunteered for two years at an animal shelter which I still support financially My husband and I take care of the furry friends, He work from home and I work in the mornings, weekends we are in home but some we travel so we prefer to you book in 2-3 days in advance I have a spacious two-bedroom apartment with a balcony covered in artificial grass. Within my complex, there’s a pet play area and plenty of space for walks by the lake—always on a leash. There’s also a flat wooded area with natural grass for pets to enjoy
“We have used Collette multiple times now and she has been a terrific help, always responds on time and is reasonably priced which is much appreciated. I would definitely recommend:)”
About: I have taken care of 16 dogs: 11 puppies, 3 inside dogs and 2 hunting dogs (which I turned into couch potatoes) all during the same time period. I have experience with senior dogs, I know they need some extra care and time so I am very patient with them. I found loving homes for 10 of the puppies, I of course had to keep one- his name was Elvis, my best friend for 12 wonderful years. I’m currently a stay at home mom. I’m available 7:45am - 12:30pm every other week. The other weeks my schedule is very flexible, 7am - 5pm. Monday - Friday. I currently do not offer care for pets in my home, recently moved so our home and fenced in yard is a work in progress! When caring for pets in your home please be sure to tell me about any specific needs your pet may require. I love going on walks so it’s a bonus if your dog does too! If not I’ll gladly sit with them and give them belly rubs and ear scratches.
“Amy to the rescue! Our normal dog walker was suddenly hospitalized and we were able to book Amy on short notice (less than 24 hours). We are so glad we did! She came over to meet our pup and had a few questions for us. She was very responsive and sent a little recap of the walk, the walk details, and amazing pictures. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I am a life long dog and cat lover. Many different breeds growing up and young adulthood. For the last 20 years I have owned 4 Chesapeake Bay retrievers. 2 from pups, last 2 as rescue/re-home. I have been told many times " I have a way with dogs as other's pets act calmer around me than most. I truly enjoy their company and giving them my attention. I am a retired carpenter and now a retired measure tech. I have flexibility in my schedule that allows me to meet many different request. Seeking new clients. I am only looking for care in clients homes. My personal environment is prohibitive as I care for my elderly parents. They care for my pup as their own while I am away.

My other sitter canceled last-minute right before Christmas, and it ended up being a blessing in disguise because I ended up finding Ashley instead. My dog, who is very nervous and easily bored, got so much love and attention, and was very calm and content when I picked her up. I will absolutely hire Ashley again, I am beyond thrilled with every aspect of the experience. A+!!”
“What a wonderful family!!! They were so welcoming of our big Akita and took care of him just like he was their own. And their dog was also great with mine.

For drop ins, I will give your pets some love and whatever else they need!
