“Kurt took great care of Pi. They took lots of walks and Pi seemed totally comfortable in the pictures. Kurt was flexible on the pickup schedule when our travel plans failed. I will definitely book with Kurt again.”
“The experience was fine. I select that I want updates and pictures and didn’t receive any. It seemed more like a boarding facility than pet sitting in a homey environment which is what our cats are used to. It was just a different experience than what we had experienced before and was a last minute alternative to our usual sitter. The only thing I was weary of was the extending service fee for extending an extra night , if I had just booked the two nights the fee wouldn’t have been applied. Definitely efficiently run and the dogs on property are a plus . Very professional.”
“This was my first time using Rover and the first time leaving my dog with someone other than my parents. Sydney was very responsive and easy to work with. My dog seemed like she had a great time and was well cared for.”
“Amari was very accommodating for a last minute booking, kept me updated with lots of pictures and reassured me that my dog was doing great! Would definitely book with her again in the future.”
“Courtney & Kameron took great care of Barkley while I was away. He went on lots of walks and enjoyed all the extra attention. Courtney sent lots of pic throughout the weekend. Will definitely use them again!!!”
About: I have 3 dogs at home in CLT, NC. All of my friends say I treat them like my babies. I miss them so much when I am at school and would love to give your puppy some snuggles while you are away! I have 1 class a day so I will be gone max 2 hours and I LOVEEE walks so they will be walked at least 2 miles everyday if able! I can easily crate your dog if preferred. I live in an apartment but live super close to grassy areas for when they need to use the restroom. I have 3 other roommate's who all have dogs at home and one of us is usually always home!
“Always responsive. Knowledgeable about animals. Her pup is now our pups new best friend. Our pup runs to her door when he gets out of the truck. When that happens you know she is good to them <3”
“Linda and David are amazing. They took a great care of my dog. They kept me updated, sent pictures every day, were super quick to respond to messages, accommodate to our delay to return from our trip, and were very nice and kind. I will use them again.”
“Rambo had a great time at Shannon's, she's very experienced and put my mind at ease leaving him for the first time with a sitter. Already booked her again and plan on more bookings in the future.”
“Amanda was great. My pets can be a little nervous but they warmed up to her quickly. She sent daily check in’s so I knew they were doing well when I was away. I would definitely book her again.”
“Vanda was amazing. She took our request on short notice, she communicated really well, and she sent us pictures of our girls while we were gone. They seemed very happy when we picked them up! Thank you Vanda! Would definitely book with her again.”
“Holly took such excellent care of our Boo! She’s a true dog whisperer and loves each dog like her own. We were anxious about leaving our puppy for the first time overnight, but Holly loved on her and spoiled her and made us feel at ease while we were away. We would definitely trust Boo’s care to Holly any time and recommend her highly! We were so lucky to have found such a loving and caring sitter. Thank you, Holly!”
About: I am a stay at home Mom and would love to help other pet owners be at ease knowing their pets are being taken care of while you’re at work or out of town. Being at home allows me to be very flexible with the care you need. My family has both a dog and cat at home, so I’m familiar with the care needed for both. I’ve also cared for an elder dog before needing insulin administered. I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is very flexible to work with your needs! I’m happy to work with you! I have a large un-fenced yard surrounded by woods; supervised time outside only and on a leash unless you and I both are confident in obedience to come when called. I have a small dog at home who prefers a cuddle buddy over a play mate, but she is friendly with most dogs and loves cats! In the event I leave home I prefer crating until I get to know your pup.
“Veronica has been so great with Sam multiple times and Sam loves hanging out with her, her family, and her friendly dogs ... plus he comes back happy, and tired from all the playtime which is great, too :)”
“1st time using Rover App & 1st time getting a new face for our sweet ol pup 🐶 Rover is streamlined, user-friendly, and fast responses from potential sitters! Nancye did a Superb job taking care of our sweet boy! So appreciative of her loving care while we were out of town! Thank you Nancye!! 💜”
“I took Margot for her first day care day with Samantha today and Margot absolutely loved it! Samantha sent me photos and updates all day and I was sure she was taking good care of my baby!

About: Although I never owned a cat because my mom is allergic and my landlord does not allow them, I have always adored cats. I started cat sitting during COVID for a family friend. I am responsible when it comes to feeding and litter box care, and I love to play with cats. Cuddly cats are my favorite, but I respect the space of cats who prefer to be left alone.
“Christina was incredibly communicative and sent me lots of photos. She also never hesitated to reach out and ask questions or update me on something she was worried about. I strongly recommend Christina and will trust her to look after my pack in the future!”
“Katie took care of our cats while we were gone for two weeks. She did an excellent job and is very responsible with good communication. We plan to use her again in the future and would highly recommend her.”
About: I've grown up surrounded by animals my entire life, and that hands-on experience is what truly sets me apart. I was raised with three cats (2 indoor, 1 outdoor), caring for them from kittenhood all the way through end-of-life care, including demanding daily routines and administering medication. I also have two dogs of my own: a Mini Australian Shepherd I raised from a puppy and personally trained. He’s so smart he keeps me on my toes, which means I know exactly how to handle high-energy, high-drive breeds and the escape artists of the dog world. The other is a large pitty mix we adopted at age two who came to us with leash pulling, reactivity, excessive barking, and rough play habits, all of which I've worked through and successfully managed. I know how to confidently handle dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Beyond cats and dogs, I've owned two guinea pigs, a hamster, and fish, so I understand the specific and often overlooked needs of small pets too. I've also assisted my sister in fostering cats, many of whom were shy, post-surgical, or required medication and special feeding instructions, so I'm completely comfortable with pets that need a little extra patience and TLC. Most recently, I pet sat a kitten over spring break 2026, and I'm always happy to sit for other pet owners' animals as well. As a sophomore in Alpha Chi Omega, I bring the same reliability, respect, and communication to pet sitting that I bring to everything I do. I treat every pet as if they were my own, follow your routines to the letter, and love keeping owners in the loop with regular updates, photos, and videos, as often as you'd like. If you're looking for someone experienced, trustworthy, and genuinely passionate about animals, I'm your person!
About: I’ve had cats as pets since I was very little so I have a lot of experience caring for them. I currently have two cats of my own, Sargent Pepper and Tom. I worked as a dog walker in California for a few years and did overnight sits that also involved taking care of owner’s cats. I’m very much a cat person and love being around them!
About: As a cat parent of three, I know feline care is about more than food and water. I watch for changes in appetite, litter habits, and mood, and I let shy cats warm up on their own terms. I’m happy to handle feeding, scooping, play, medication, and plenty of quiet company for cats who prefer a low-key visitor.
“We are so amazed by the care that Rita provided our boys when we were away. We knew from our initial meeting that she offers her services because she loves pets so much. We will definitely only hire her for our future needs and we recommend her without reservation!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats ever since I was about 10 when my grandma got a cat. I absolutely fell in love with them and eventually started cat sitting for one of my neighbors. I also have experience administering medications through my job at the veterinary hospital.

“Emily was amazing with my dog, Butters! She had so much fun that she didn’t even want to come home! Emily sent pictures and updates throughout the stay, which I really appreciated. It was clear that Butters was in great hands the entire time. Emily is such a caring and attentive sitter, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take great care of their pup!”
“Overall, they are AMAZING dog sitters and do a great job! I was given tons of pictures of my Auggie having a great weekend and I was very nervous to leave him for the first time. They did a great job instilling good habits in my puppy while having him enjoy his weekend with completely new people. I’m extremely satisfied and will be using them again!!”
About: I’ve spent the past 3 years volunteering with shelter dogs that were reactive, nervous, high energy, sensitive, untrained, and everything in between. My sister and I would take shelter dogs out for the day and bring them to the beach, on long walks, car rides, basically just let them have a full day outside of the shelter. That experience taught me a completely different level of dog care than I was used to from simply caring for my grandmother’s dog, Lulu. I learned how to recognize when a dog is uncomfortable, when to give them space, and how to work with their individual boundaries instead. Shelter dogs taught me that no two dogs are the same, and caring for them isn’t something to take lightly. I’ve also volunteered at the Staten Island Zoo for 2 years and have had animals around me my entire life. My pets back home in New York include my 8 year old cat Nemo, a blue tongued skink, bearded dragon, gecko, gerbils, tortoise, pixie frog, and more. My sister and I grew up going to animal expos, so I’ve had experience being around and caring for many different kinds of animals. Because of that, I’m very comfortable around animals, but I also know that being comfortable doesn’t mean ignoring their boundaries. I want to know their routine, personality, triggers, habits, favorite things, and anything else that helps them feel safe and comfortable. The more I know about your pet, the better I can care for them! I’m a Virginia Tech student with a pretty open class schedule. Classes usually take up only about two hours of my day, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I’m happy to take dogs on long walks and give them lots of time outside if that’s what they enjoy. When we’re home, they’ll have my attention too, whether they want to play, relax together, or just have someone nearby. I live at The Hub, which is a pet friendly community with its own dog park and plenty of outdoor spaces for walks and potty breaks. I’d only use the dog park if it’s empty. I’m also happy to skip it completely if that’s what you prefer! I’d follow whatever routine your dog is already used to and keep things as normal and comfortable for them as possible while they’re with me!
“Holly is the BEST. Tuesdays are now Poncho's (and my) favorite day of the week. He has the time of his life running around the yard and playing with other pups, and is exhausted by the time I pick him up- which every puppy owner knows is the BEST feeling ever. Holly is so communicative, sends the cutest pics, and I always know Poncho is safe and spoiled with her. You need to book with her!”
About: Hello, my name is Lucas and I have had many different kinds of cats and dogs my whole life. I currently have 2 cats and 1 dog who I love to take care of the best I can, and love meeting new pets. I am currently enrolled in Radford University, and love taking care of pets in my time off. It should be a breeze scheduling to take care of your pets with me. I will go above and beyond any task I am given, and make sure it is done meticulously how the client has given me the instructions.
“My dog Max appeared to have a wonderful time at Richard and Kelly’s. It’s awesome to have found a place close to work and home to take him for daycare :) 100% going again !!”
About: I've owned and taken care of all kinds of dogs, cats, and other animals from a very young age. Ive pet sat for many neighbors and relatives since I was 10, where I was responsible for feeding, walking, bathing, giving medicine, etc. I have great experience with dogs that are anxious, nervous, or shy, as my rescue dog and many pets i’ve looked after are like this. I also have experience giving pets medicine or any other special care they may need in their time with me. Most importantly, I love animals more than anything and I can promise a caring and safe home for your pet!! I’m a student at virginia tech with a very open class scheduel! I have 1-2 short classes a day where im gone for only an hour. Other than those classes, Im free all week and on the weekends to make sure your pet has constant care! I live in an apartment with an enclosed dog park less than a minute walk away, and along with that, my apartment is safe, secure, and kept very clean making it a great environment for any pet. When walking the dog, I prioritize safety with keeping the dog close to me at all times.
About: I would take care of little to big puppies of all ages. My favorite was a 7 year Great Dane I would house sit for. I have always grown up with animals and would also pet sit when my parents were out of town. My schedule is super flexible, since I am a college student! I can work with the owner and make sure the dog and cats get the attention they need:) I walk, feed, play and bath pets have worked with and have in my own house. I go for long walks and feed pets based on the owners preference.
About: I have always grown up around pets around the house! I am currently at college and am missing being around animals. I am always available to hang out, walk, play, or just chill with a pet. I have dealt with my goldendoodle for 9 years and it is the best thing that has happened to me. I am a college student and have 2 classes everyday which are each 1 hour. Therefore, I have a lot of flexibility before, in between, and after classes. I exercise daily so walking/playing with a dog fit perfectly in my schedule. At my home I live with 3 other girls who also love pets so having pets in our place is no problem! We have a dog park right down the road and also plenty of trails near me where I can them on walks.
“I absolutely love Linda and David. They do an amazing job every single time. They take such great care of my dog and always make sure to send me pictures, which gives me so much peace of mind. My dog is always so excited when he sees them — that alone tells me how well they treat him. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and truly wonderful sitter!”
About: I have either owned or been around dogs/cats since 8 yrs old, mostly dogs. I have trained my own animals simple commands (“sit, stay, paw, speak”) and I subscribe to a service that keeps me learning new tricks and tips for dogs and cats. I frequently take care of others’ animals while they are away. A friend recommended this to me, since I’ve done it for years. I also thoroughly enjoy the company of animals. I am an RN that picks up shifts, per diem. Due to my specialties, (Critical and Emergency Care,) I enjoy the company of non-humans, and a less hectic environment to keep me energized and in a good frame of mind to continue nursing. Animals do just that! How could they not? I am able to walk, let animals out, play with, train, and crate (if needed,) I do not mind loading your dog into my car for a quick road trip, too! If they like that, anyway! I am experienced with different breeds, multiple dog households, and pet safety.
About: I’ve owned a black Labrador(Anna) for over 13 years, she has not once had any sort of health issue as I’ve feed her well, and kept her up to date on vet visits. I’m caring, compassionate, and smart and versatile enough to be calm in any situation that may arise. I assure you that I will treat your pet as if it were my own. This allows me the freedom to stay focused on your pet and be there when other folks have to leave. If a situation ever does arrive my strength are communication so you can rest assured I will be in constant contact, which as a pet owner for an older girl myself id expect from others if I left her in their care. If the pet requires adequate exercise I have no problem going on a long walk with them and the space is pet friendly as my dog (Anna) is there. In your home, I can assure you that my experience will allow me to provide the best care for your loved ones.
About: I'm diligent, conscientious, and careful when caring for dogs.

About: I am a veterinarian who has dedicated her life to caring for animals. I have worked with animals from a young age, including many hours working in vet offices in high school leading up to college and vet school (became a licensed vet in 2020). I am quite comfortable with caring for animals who need medications administered, or more intense levels of care while their owners are away. Working with animals brings me joy and peace, and making sure they are happy and well cared for is my life mission. I believe in fear free handling, and I am happy to work with animals who do not trust unknown people. I am a licensed veterinarian but I am currently in grad school so I am very flexible. I can be home all day if needed, and can provide close supervision. I have a 3 year old female German Shepherd (very friendly!) and cats (mostly outdoor). I have the ability to keep my dog separate if needed but she loves playing with other dogs! I have a full sized truck and the ability to transport animals with me safely. I have 2.5 acres of fenced land for dogs to run and play as well as a small fenced in section adjacent to the house. A pet door offers come and go access to the house. I am free to drop in during the week or board animals for extended periods, and if your animal needs medications administered as part of their care I am very capable. I am comfortable handling large dogs (I have a lot of practice in my line of work as a veterinarian). I am also comfortable with young animals, cats, older animals, and any animal requiring high levels of care.
About: I have been pet sitting as a side job for 4 years now, but my passion for animals has been a lifelong journey. From a young age, I’ve been surrounded by pets, and pet sitting has allowed me to further channel my love and care for animals. My experience spans a variety of pets, with a particular focus on caring for large breed dogs during my time in Australia. Whether tending to puppies or elderly pets, I approach each responsibility with the utmost dedication and a deep understanding of their unique needs. I have flexible availability as I focus only on my studies at the moment I don't have a side job, allowing me to offer reliable pet care. I treat each pet like they’re part of my family, whether they’re staying in my home or theirs. I make sure to stick to their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. This includes playtime, walks, meals, and grooming as needed. I also keep in touch with the pet’s owner to provide regular updates and make sure everything is going smoothly. Above all, I strive to create a loving, safe environment where pets can feel at ease while their owners are away
“Nancy’s was great! We were in town for graduation and needed a pet sitter for a few hours to attend the ceremony. Nancy’s was very attentive and excited to take care of Chai. She was in great hands and I highly recommend her to anybody who wants extra special treatment for their pup.”
“Deann was wonderful! We were a last minute booking and she could not have been more flexible or more gracious! Our puppy had a great afternoon. We will definitely be return customers!”
About: I have tons of experience because of living abroad on American compounds where people are always travelling, they always come to me to take care of the little guys! I’m a junior at Virginia Tech double majoring in Cybersecurity Management & Analytics and Management Consulting & Analytics. My schedule is pretty flexible throughout the week, giving me plenty of time to focus on pet care. I’m available for boarding, overnight stays, walks, playtime, and drop-in visits, and can easily work around your pet’s normal routine. I’m also available on game days, weekends, and during school breaks. I always prioritize each pet’s comfort and safety, whether I’m in my home or the client’s. I have experience handling large, untrained dogs and know how to stay calm and in control. I also use positive reinforcement techniques to encourage good behavior. For senior dogs or shy pets who need extra patience and care, I take things slow and make sure they feel safe and supported. I always follow any instructions you leave to make sure your pet feels at home, happy, and secure.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have nearly 7 years of dog sitting experience starting in middle school. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities and I pride myself on being extremely attentive, reliable, and detail oriented with every pet.

I’m able to adapt to each pets needs and schedule, whether that means early mornings, midday visits, or evening care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

“Hannah arrived on time and had an excellent repoire when first meeting our 2 dogs. She was friendly and polite, and on the day she took care of the pups she sent photos. An excellent experience! Highly recommend.”
“Katie has been great with Indie, communicates very well, and is on time and flexible with our dynamic schedule needs so we are thankful to have found her and plan on making her our regular walker for the foreseeable future.”
About: My family adopted a 10 month old rescue pup, Charlie, when I was 7 years old. For the 12 years that I got to spend with him he was my best friend. Although he was stronger than me the first few years of his life, I was still involved in his training and feeding care until I was big enough to take him out and walk him. Once I could handle him, I took him out, walked him, and helped give baths. As an adult, I have done multiple pet-sitting jobs for neighbors and family friends. I have taken care of dogs and cats of all ages. My job experience includes retail, landscaping, and food/bar service. Working late nights in downtown Blacksburg, I have become keen at cleaning up messes of all kinds. This summer, my schedule is wide open! I play pool a couple of nights a week, but that doesn't last for more than a few hours and I can always go late/leave early to get back to the pets. When the school year starts, I will schedule pet sitting around my class schedule. I am equipped to handle dogs of almost any size on a leash, and I love to play fetch in a yard/at the park. I can keep food and water bowls clean and full, I can crate dogs if needed, and I can keep a litter box clean!
About: I’ve had dogs and cats all of my life. My family currently has a Golden Retriever, an Australian Shepherd, an English Bulldog, and 2 cats. I personally have a cat who lives with me at my apartment. I had lots of experience on Rover in summer of 2024. I received great reviews from many different pet owners, and I even had multiple regular clients whose pets I loved visiting. During this time, I offered drop-in and home sitting services for dogs and cats. Breeds varied from Australian Shepherds that needed lots of playtime and attention to older mixed-breeds who just loved to cuddle on the couch. I didn’t offer much dog sitting at the time, but I had one regular client in the winter of 2023 who I did drop-in visits for as well as walking their young Pit Bull mix with no issue. I am currently a junior at Virginia Tech. My classes are pretty spread out through the week, so I have lots of breaks to do drop-ins or walking. My weekends are usually totally free! Tuesdays: 7am-11am, 7pm-11pm Wednesdays: 7am-9am, 1:30pm-7pm, 9:30pm-11pm Thursdays: 7am-4pm, 7:30pm-11pm Fridays: 7am-11am, 4pm-11pm Weekends: Times vary, but mostly open I’m available for anything you may need me to do to care for your pup or kitty at your home! I can play with them, give them love, take them on walks, or leave them be if they’d prefer that. I can let them outside/walk them as much as they need and feed them when instructed. I can administer medication and fulfill any other needs that your pup or kitty may need.
About: I've been taking care of dogs, both my own and others, since I was 13! I have also volunteered at animal shelters, where I played with dogs, took them on walks, and engaged with them. I am currently a full-time student at Virginia Tech. My availability during the week varies, but I will always make time to care for your pet! I can do whatever you request! I live in an apartment, so I do not have any room to house pets; however, I have a car to transport myself wherever you are!
“I hired Alyssa to walk my sweet-but-sometimes-excitable dog, Annie. Alyssa was fantastic! You can tell she really loves animals, and Annie took to her right away. She was already familiar with the gear I use for training Annie on walks and had experience managing Annie's problem behaviors (reactivity, although she's getting better). Alyssa asked good questions that let me know she takes her pet care work seriously. She always sent me photos and she's great with communication. All-around a great experience and a lovely person. I have already discussed future jobs with her!”
“Becky does an amazing job with caring and walking my dog. She took time to learn his daily walk routine and how to best handle him. She’s very personable and kind and I would recommend her to anyone!”
About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I recently graduated with my BSN in Animal Sciences, and have been working in the veterinary field since 2022. I am currently working as a full-time emergency veterinary assistant. I currently work full-time at an emergency veterinary hospital. I have plenty of time on my days off and after work to care for your pets! I would be very comfortable taking your furry friends for walks, crating them, or just hanging out! I love all animals, and am looking forward to caring for your furry friend!
About: Grown up with dogs my entire life! Had 5 dogs at one time at one point. Owned and comfortable with breeds such as Rottweiler, Golden Retriever, Dachshund, Husky, and more! Free most days as I have breaks in the middle of the day between classes almost every day! Also comfortable pet/house-sitting if we discuss and agree on details/expectations prior! I’ve always treated all pets, most of all dogs a part of the family, both my own and my friends and families pets. I’d treat your dog like I was watching your child because I know that that’s exactly how he or she feels to you!
About: I have 6+ years of experience with multiple animal species, including dogs and cats of various sizes and attitudes. As a third year veterinary student, I am also capable of handling daily treatments as needed. I’m currently a full-time veterinary student, but year 3 has a schedule perfect to work with your pets. I will have multiple hours per day to visit, walk, etc. I am very willing to tailor my services to your individual needs. Just let me know what is needed, and I am happy to accommodate.
About: As of 8/2025: My business is insured by Pet Care Insurance (PCI) for your peace of mind. Nice to meet you! I’m Jamie and I’m a cat dad and vet student here at Virginia Tech. I have lifelong experience caring for animals - I grew up with five cats, two Guinea pigs, and four birds! Petsitting for my neighbor’s dogs was my very first job as a kid and I have been doing it for friends, family, and coworkers ever since. I have experience caring for elderly and disabled animals, those with particular feeding schedules or allergies, and am comfortable administering medications for your pets as needed. I have cared for everything from dogs and cats to ferrets, rabbits, and even chickens. Let’s connect so we can talk about your goals for your pets’ wellness and comfort when you’re away, and how I can help you achieve them. I have an extremely flexible academic schedule and a flexible employment schedule which makes petsitting a breeze. Shoot me a message so I can get you on my calendar! My animals are fully vaccinated and on monthly preventatives for your pets’ wellness as much as mine. Don’t worry, I make sure to send lots of pictures and updates along the way! :)
About: I have cared for my two 9-year old dogs since they were only a couple months old, so I’m comfortable with every stage from wild puppy energy to the slower, gentler needs of senior dogs. Over the years, I’ve handled sickness, medications, picky eating, and even giving IV fluids, so when it comes to pets who need more attention or special care, I am calm, confident, and capable. I also genuinely love getting outdoors and going on long walks, so active pets will get plenty of exercise and fresh air. My dogs mean the world to me, and I will 100% bring that same patient, loving, reliable energy to every pet I look after. You won't ever have to doubt that your animals will be treated with all the affection, consistency, and comfort they deserve. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and I don’t work another job, so I’m fully available on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends. That means I have plenty of time and flexibility to give your pets all the attention, walks, and care they need. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m more than happy to spend the whole day with them. I’m fully available most days and can even do my online classes from your home so your pet has company, comfort, and consistency. I love taking dogs on long walks, keeping them active, and giving them plenty of attention throughout the day. I can also stay overnight if needed. I’m big on keeping each pet’s routine exactly the same. Same feeding schedule, same walk times, same habits they’re used to. I’m very detail‑oriented and great at following instructions, especially since I’ve handled everything from puppy care to senior needs, medications, picky eating, and even IV fluids with my own dogs. Your pet will get steady, loving care and feel completely safe with me.
About: Hi! I’m Kayleigh, an animal lover with a lifetime of experience caring for animals and a background in professional equine care. I’m comfortable with animals of all personalities, from energetic and playful to shy, senior, or needing a little extra patience and attention. I work with horses professionally, so animal care, safety, medications, feeding routines, and recognizing when something isn’t quite right are all things I’m very familiar with. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals—not just checking in and leaving. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, feeding, companionship, or someone to keep their normal routine while you’re away, I’d love to help! I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and send plenty of updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. 🐾 I have experience with service dogs, big dogs, small dogs, hyperactive dogs, and senior dogs. I have managed horse farms in the past so I am used to seeing it all. I am available throughout the day. I do tutor a few children a few hours a day but it leaves my schedule pretty open. I can't wait to do the same with your dogs. Animals are already a big part of my daily life! I spend much of my day caring for horses and am used to structured feeding, exercise, and care routines. Pet sitting fits naturally into my schedule, and I’m able to give dogs and cats plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I’m comfortable working around different schedules and following each pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. # How I Care for Pets I treat every pet like they’re my own! I follow their normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and rest, while giving them plenty of attention and affection. I’m experienced with animals that need extra patience or specific care instructions and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for multiple pets, including two dogs and two cats in my household. I was responsible for their daily care while my parents were at work, which included feeding, supervision, playtime, and making sure they felt safe and comfortable. I’ve cared for both small and large breeds, including a Chihuahua and a German Shepherd, and have experience raising them from a young age. Both of my dogs had anxiety, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and providing a calm, loving environment. I’m comfortable handling multiple pets at once and making sure each one gets the attention they need. I also have experience with basic training such as sit, stay, and reinforcing good behavior. I currently live with a friendly and calm dog named Penny, and my home provides a safe, welcoming space where dogs can relax, play, and feel at ease. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive and reliable care for your pets. I’m available on weekend mornings and weekdays after 2 PM. On Sundays and Wednesdays, I have more flexible availability and can also accommodate morning requests. I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pet is well cared for! I have a comfortable home with a fenced yard where your dog will have plenty of space to run, play, and relax. I also have a sweet, older dog named Penny who loves friendly company and can be a great companion for your pup! If needed, I’m happy to crate your dog as well—just let me know your preferences so I can make them feel right at home.

“Kurt took great care of Pi. They took lots of walks and Pi seemed totally comfortable in the pictures. Kurt was flexible on the pickup schedule when our travel plans failed. I will definitely book with Kurt again.”
“The experience was fine. I select that I want updates and pictures and didn’t receive any. It seemed more like a boarding facility than pet sitting in a homey environment which is what our cats are used to. It was just a different experience than what we had experienced before and was a last minute alternative to our usual sitter. The only thing I was weary of was the extending service fee for extending an extra night , if I had just booked the two nights the fee wouldn’t have been applied. Definitely efficiently run and the dogs on property are a plus . Very professional.”
“This was my first time using Rover and the first time leaving my dog with someone other than my parents. Sydney was very responsive and easy to work with. My dog seemed like she had a great time and was well cared for.”
“Jessie did an amazing job caring for our shy fur baby! She sent us texts and pictures with updates. We even got a report card on Maggie when we picked her up and a treat bag ! Very thoughtful and sweet ❤️ Jessie’s dogs welcomed Maggie to their pack… Lacee and Bella are super sweet , well behaved and helped our dog with her shyness and nervousness. Maggie was happy to see us when we picked her up, but I don’t think she wanted to leave her new friends. I highly recommend Jessie and we will definitely use her again!”
“Amari was very accommodating for a last minute booking, kept me updated with lots of pictures and reassured me that my dog was doing great! Would definitely book with her again in the future.”
“Courtney & Kameron took great care of Barkley while I was away. He went on lots of walks and enjoyed all the extra attention. Courtney sent lots of pic throughout the weekend. Will definitely use them again!!!”
About: I have 3 dogs at home in CLT, NC. All of my friends say I treat them like my babies. I miss them so much when I am at school and would love to give your puppy some snuggles while you are away! I have 1 class a day so I will be gone max 2 hours and I LOVEEE walks so they will be walked at least 2 miles everyday if able! I can easily crate your dog if preferred. I live in an apartment but live super close to grassy areas for when they need to use the restroom. I have 3 other roommate's who all have dogs at home and one of us is usually always home!
“Always responsive. Knowledgeable about animals. Her pup is now our pups new best friend. Our pup runs to her door when he gets out of the truck. When that happens you know she is good to them <3”
“Rambo had a great time at Shannon's, she's very experienced and put my mind at ease leaving him for the first time with a sitter. Already booked her again and plan on more bookings in the future.”
“Vanda was amazing. She took our request on short notice, she communicated really well, and she sent us pictures of our girls while we were gone. They seemed very happy when we picked them up! Thank you Vanda! Would definitely book with her again.”
“Holly took such excellent care of our Boo! She’s a true dog whisperer and loves each dog like her own. We were anxious about leaving our puppy for the first time overnight, but Holly loved on her and spoiled her and made us feel at ease while we were away. We would definitely trust Boo’s care to Holly any time and recommend her highly! We were so lucky to have found such a loving and caring sitter. Thank you, Holly!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have nearly 7 years of dog sitting experience starting in middle school. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities and I pride myself on being extremely attentive, reliable, and detail oriented with every pet. I have experience handling multiple dogs at once including caring for up to five dogs for 7+ days, so I’m very comfortable with both longer stays in higher-energy households. I treat every dog like my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I also provide consistent updates so you can feel confident and not ease while you’re away. I’m a student at Virginia Tech with a flexible schedule, typically having at most two classes a day. Outside of class, I spent most of my time at home, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. My routine makes it easy for me to incorporate walks, feeding, playtime, and check-in consistently. I’m able to adapt to each pets needs and schedule, whether that means early mornings, midday visits, or evening care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a pet friendly apartment with a fence dog area, so dogs have a safe place to get outside and play. I’m very attentive and make sure pets are always supervised and cared for based on their specific needs and routines. I also keep owners updated regularly so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I am a stay at home Mom and would love to help other pet owners be at ease knowing their pets are being taken care of while you’re at work or out of town. Being at home allows me to be very flexible with the care you need. My family has both a dog and cat at home, so I’m familiar with the care needed for both. I’ve also cared for an elder dog before needing insulin administered. I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is very flexible to work with your needs! I’m happy to work with you! I have a large un-fenced yard surrounded by woods; supervised time outside only and on a leash unless you and I both are confident in obedience to come when called. I have a small dog at home who prefers a cuddle buddy over a play mate, but she is friendly with most dogs and loves cats! In the event I leave home I prefer crating until I get to know your pup.
“Veronica has been so great with Sam multiple times and Sam loves hanging out with her, her family, and her friendly dogs ... plus he comes back happy, and tired from all the playtime which is great, too :)”
“I took Margot for her first day care day with Samantha today and Margot absolutely loved it! Samantha sent me photos and updates all day and I was sure she was taking good care of my baby! Samantha is very flexible and communicative and Margot will definitely become her regular client. 100% recommend her!”
“We had to book with Kayla pretty much as last minute as you could get. Our original Rover didn’t work out and we needed to find somewhere quick. Kayla was super communicative and easy going! Her other dogs are all so sweet and well trained. It was a great socialization experience for our dog. She sent us so many videos and pictures throughout the booking. We loved Kayla and would recommend her 1000x over”
