“Dana is our go-to when it comes to care for our pup and this our third or fourth time using her and the longest we’ve been away from our guy! We got daily pupdates and he had a great time with his daily long walks and spending time outside. We all love Dana!”


“Amber, goes above and beyond. She’s very responsive and she communicates with me daily by sending pictures and text messages. She ensures that my pet is well taken care of and I can go on vacation and not have to worry. My dog loves going over there. She gets so excited she runs around in circles. I even recommended a friend of mines to use her service and she is very happy that I recommended her.”

“Erica was fantastic! 🌟 This was our first time ever boarding our 3 1/2 year-old sheltie, so we weren’t sure how well he would do. We checked out two local kennels, and they were not a good fit for him as he was very scared. So we looked into dog sitters in a home environment. I met with Erica before the booking and she put my mind at ease. When we got him back he slept most of the rest of the day since he had so much fun playing with all the dogs! He was well cared for and we will definitely book with her again! Thank you so much ❤️ 🩵”

“Thank you Julie for taking such great care of my pups. I loved the pictures and videos that you sent. The dogs told me they felt right at home and enjoyed meeting their new pup friends. They especially loved the huge fenced in yard and freedom they felt. They can't wait to come back.”

“Fantastic experience, Jennifer’s frequent updates and pictures allowed us to be able to relax and enjoy our vacation. Her dog Charlotte and our puppy played well together. Our puppy keeps asking to go back. Totally will use Jennifer again, and highly recommend her.”

“Marley had a great time with Kathryn and her family! Great communication throughout our time away and the little fella got lots of love and attention. He came home happy and tired from all the great walks. Highly recommend Kathryn and we hope to book again soon! Thanks for a great experience!”


“Stephanie was wonderful! Took care of my dog and kept me updated with pictures throughout her stay. She looked happy and well taken care of the entire time! Would definitely book with Stephanie again”

“Cori was a very warm and inviting host. She provided great updates and photos on our 2 YO fur baby. She also did so much to accommodate all of our needs for Lucky. I would highly recommend for anyone looking for short or long term care. She is a little far from us but totally worth the drive. Her rates are also great!”

“Rebekah, was absolutely a great sitter for my Bucky. Daily pictures of how much fun and exercise she was given. Best part on pickup I could see how much fun he had since he was out in the yard playing with the other dogs. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”


“Heather is the absolute best! She’s also very communicative and will make sure your pup feels right at home. Would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a rover in the Fredericksburg area!! She also sends loads of cute pics, which I very much appreciate”

“Heather is amazing! She is so knowledgeable, and understands dog behavior. She watches my two cockapoos. One gets anxious when meeting other dogs, but he had no problem with her guiding him step by step. She walked us and the dogs thru a very comfortable meet and greet with her and China (her adorable pug). My dogs have stayed with her twice. The second time, both my dogs were thrilled to see her, and one ran into her backyard like it was her house. They have never done that with other sitters, so I know my babies are having a great time with Heather. She sends daily pics, and makes us all feel at ease.”


“We couldn’t be happier with the care Leslie provided for our dog, Siku, over the 9 days we were away. From the very beginning, Leslie was communicative, reliable, and clearly experienced with dogs. She made us feel completely at ease leaving Siku in her care. Throughout our trip, Leslie kept us updated with messages and photos, which meant so much to us. It was clear that Siku was not only well cared for, but also happy and comfortable. When we returned, Siku was relaxed, healthy, and clearly had been given lots of attention and love. Leslie truly went above and beyond, and we are so grateful to have found someone we trust. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and attentive pet sitter—and we will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Lisa is a terrific Rover. She took care of our two girls a German Shepard and a senior Chihuahua. Lisa communicated with us daily and our dogs were able to have fun adventures making sure they were happy, safe and healthy. We hope to use Lisa for all our pet sitting needs. She is our 3rd state, 3rd Rover and the best.”

“Connie was great with both my Rottweiler and Cavapoo while I was away on vacation. She kept in constant contact by sending pics of the dogs everyday. She has considerable expertise with large dogs being that while my Rottweiler stayed with her, there were two other Rottweilers who were also boarded and no problems arose at all. She will definitely be the go-to for our boarding needs from here on out.”

“Laurie was great with Oakley. She provided plenty of outside time and sent frequent updates with photos and videos. I could tell Oakley enjoyed her time with Laurie and her dogs.”


“Thank you for taking care of our pups for a few days while we were away and for going above and beyond!! We really appreciated all the pictures, videos and updates of our pups!”

“Eldeen and Eugene have been our pups favorite second family for a while now. They are the reason I am always at ease whenever I have to go away on a business trip or a family holiday. I get updates via photos and their pick up/drop off service is effortless. Eldeen and Eugene are the gold stars of quality care for your pet. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: I’ve experienced cat ownership and caregiving since I can remember. From adapting to different temperaments, cleanup, and feeding neighborhood strays, I’ve been blessed with a well-rounded and fulfilling education in cat supervision.

“Katie watched our cat and did some house sitting for several days, and she did an amazing job! She sent picture updates that gave me so much peace of mind, and he was clearly happy, playful, and well cared for. She followed all his routines, kept everything tidy, and was great at communicating. I’d definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!! 10/10!”


“Farrin was the zen to our panic when leaving our two cats for a trip for the first time. She was extremely calm and understanding, especially when concerning our cat with anxiety. She was patient, attentive and provided us with the feedback/support we needed to calm our nerves. Great service!”


“This is our third time having Jessica over. She is very conscientious, responsive, prompt and responsible. She works hard to befriend our kitties even though they are not cooperative, and we appreciate that a lot! We feel very safe giving her access to our pets and our home! She is a blessing and we’re very thankful!”


About: I had a cat from as young as 12 years old, and my job was the litter box! Of course, taking care of your cat is much more than that. I will be able to give your cat the love and attention it needs.

“Amber is a wonderful pet sitter. You can feel confident that your pets are well cared for—she recently looked after several cats across two households and managed everything smoothly over the holidays. I’m very grateful for the care and attention she gave my babies and would absolutely book her again.”


“Ronda is everything I could want in a cat sitter--she is professional, experienced, communicates quickly and clearly, and gives a detailed update and photos for each visit. She listened closely to my concerns about my elderly kitty's behaviors and kept a close eye on her, keeping me well informed during each visit on any changes. Knowing my kitty was in Ronda's competent & loving care allowed me to put my full focus on the purpose of my travels. 100% five star service. I highly recommend Ronda to anyone in need of a reliable, knowlegeable, and caring cat sitter who clearly "understands the assignment"!”

“Kelsey was absolutely the best sitter we could have asked for. She came daily to feed and care for our senior cat and this is the first time we’ve come home from a vacation and he hasn’t yelled (meowed loudly) at us for leaving him. She sent and update and picture every day. We will definitely be calling on her again.”
“Ashley is the best person you can have caring for your babies. She went above and beyond for an entire week for my various pets, which included poultry- even in bad weather! I am so grateful to her and highly recommend her for any pets you have.”


“Girls are so happy when we got home!! Kaylee is amazing, followed all instructions, took great pictures. I will definitely book again, took all our worries away!”

About: I bring a lifetime of hands-on experience with animals of all kinds—from cats and dogs to birds, bunnies, and even livestock. I grew up working alongside an equine veterinarian and have spent years collaborating closely with small animal vets, giving me a strong foundation in animal health and behavior. Whether your pet needs meds, special care, or just a little extra love, I specialize in supporting animals with medical needs and take pride in being calm, compassionate, and highly attentive. I’m not just a sitter—I’m a lifelong animal caregiver who treats every pet like family. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I’m able to give pets the time, attention, and care they need throughout the day. Whether it's midday walks, medication schedules, or just extra snuggles, I’m consistently present and available to keep your pets happy and stress-free. My routine is built around their needs—because their comfort and well-being come first. 🐾 In my home, pets enjoy a safe, secure environment with a fully fenced yard and plenty of supervised playtime. My own friendly dogs are always happy to welcome new furry friends, but if your pet prefers one-on-one attention, I can provide a quiet, relaxed space just for them. I tailor the experience to match each pet’s personality and comfort level—whether they love to socialize or just want a calm companion.
“Nathan was great to work with! Super friendly, professional, and quick to respond. This was our first time using him so we could enjoy a relaxing lake day, and we're so glad we found him. Our pup seemed to have a great time, and we’ll definitely be booking with him again soon!”

About: I’ve loved dogs all my life and currently have a playful, social Labradoodle (Charlie) who would love a buddy to run and play with. My Care I work from home with a flexible schedule, so there’s plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, and cuddles. I understand how stressful kenneling can be, and I make it my goal to provide a safe, comfortable, and fun home away from home. Why Choose Me Your pup will be treated like family whether that’s exploring my large fenced yard, going on long walks, or simply relaxing together. I work from home with a flexible schedule and have plenty of time to give your pup one-on-one attention. All dogs staying with us will be part of the family and included in our daily activities. We have a large fenced yard, dog-proofed home, no other pets besides our Labradoodle, Charlie. Lifetime of dog ownership, comfortable with all breeds and ages.
“Our pup had a great day with Marguerite and her girls! He was exhausted and happy when picked him up. He got lots of walks and outdoor time, and even better he got lots of love from the whole family. Marguerite was flexible with pick up/drop off times and was communicative from booking until after we picked Tyco up. We would use Marguerite again.”

“Linda and family took great care of Layla. She stresses easily in her old age but not at all stressed with them. They communicated with me several times during her stay and even sent pictures. Highly recommend!”

About: My name is Elena and I am a US Army Veteran who loves animals. I know the feeling of having to be at work all day and not having the time to be at home with your furry buddy that’s why just leave it to me to fill in the love and attention your buddy needs. I understand when a dog feels excited, threatened, scared or even sad, as I had quite a few dogs in my life to experience all those feelings. If your pup or kitty has an accident at home I have no problem cleaning it right up. I have the career and time that allows me to care for pets in my routine. I have two children who also love love animals! I show them the attention any person needs, play with them, cuddle, give them the exercise their specific breed requires. Allowing the pet to feel like they are home.
“We had a wonderful experience with Theresa and Ed. They were so kind and attentive to our pets, and we loved getting all the photo updates. It really gave us peace of mind while we were away.”

“We could not have found a more loving and caring person to watch our Twinkle. Jessie went above and beyond making sure Twinkle felt confortable from day one. We met with her prior to our trip so Twinkle would be comfortable with her and her family as well as the house. When we dropped her she felt right at home. Jessie sent us updates and many pictures of Twinkle during her stay and we knew she was getting all the love and care she needed. Twinkle had a tumor removed a couple weeks before our trip and Jessie even did us the favor of talking her to the vet to get her bandage changed and took good care of her foot. Twinkle was so happy there that when I went to pick her up she was in no hurry to go home and went back to her bed! Your dog will be very happy in Jessie’s care. She also only takes a max of 2 dogs so your dog will be getting all the needed attention. We will definitely have Jessie watch Twinkle on our next trip or when we leave for a long day! Thank you Jessie. We are so glad we found you. Twinkle loves you.”

“Amber was great with my dog and with communicating with me. My dog seemed to have felt very comfortable with Amber and her family which made me feel very comfortable leaving her in their care in the future.”

About: I've consistently had at least one cat and dog in my household at all times, if not two! I took Small Animal Care 1&2 in high-school.

“Madison did a wonderful job and even took pictures of Kukka! She’s a young pup so I was nervous to leave her—- it was nice to get the updates and see how she was doing :) I hope I can coordinate a time with Madison again!!”

About: With the exception of a few years during college, I have always had animals in my life! I grew up always having a cat and a dog in the house and taking progressively more responsibility for their care as I got older. Now, I'm owned by two dogs (a boxer mix and a lab mix) and two cats, one of which followed my boxer and I home one day and decided to stay. They are by far the best part of my day. With all these fur babies, I've run the gauntlet of pet care challenges, from pilling cats, to dealing with allergies, to working on behaviors like marking and excessive barking. I don't claim to have it all figured out, but what I do know is that it's made me incredibly patient and compassionate with any animals in my care. Plus I've learned a trick or two along the way! I currently work for myself (from home) as a research consultant. While I do have periodic meetings throughout the week, I usually have a significant amount of flexibility in my schedule during the mornings and afternoons. I often find myself going out on multiple long walks throughout the day and generally finding any excuse I can to be outside. So why not use that time to hang out with some new animal friends? My flexible schedule means that I can accommodate most any pet needs. I go for multiple walks every day both on my own and with my own dogs, so it's easy to incorporate lots of activity in your pet's day. I also have an enclosed front porch that we all love sitting outside in the shade on, just enjoying the fresh air. And on hot days, I even have a kiddie pool that one of my dogs likes to play in to cool off. Both my dogs are very friendly and would love to make new friends! One of my cats even enjoys horsing around with the dogs. My dogs have free reign in the house, but usually hang out with me. I'm happy to have your dog(s) make themself at home as well or to crate them if that's your preference.

“We always try to book Traci when we’re leaving town. She is conscientious, flexible, and cheerful, and provides frequent updates with photos. We have no worries at all when we leave our pups with Traci. Our dogs love her, and she seems to really love them, too!”

“Paprika had another wonderful stay with Sonja & Phil! She absolutely loves them and they always give us such a peace of mind when our dog stays with them.”


“Jordan and his family was amazing with Monty. He was very quick in his responses with continous updates while taking care of my dog. His home provided the perfect space for Monty to roam and be free. Will definitely use again.”

“Rebecca was awesome and gave me updates while I was away for a 3 day trip. Took great care of Bandit and easily warmed up to her ! Will rebook again soon ! Thank you !🙏”

“Thank you so much Matisa for keeping my dogs for me. Thanks for the daily updates and pictures of the boys. They returned home safely and they are so relaxed and not so talkative 😂. Best person I ever let to keep my boys. Thanks again.”

“Christie was thoughtful and ensured the safety of all of the pets that were in her care the week we boarded our dog. She did meets and greets with the pets and owners so everyone was comfortable. When we dropped our dog off she was excited to be there and couldn't wait to go in. Our dog enjoyed her time at Christie's. Christie provided videos of the dogs playing.”
