Scott and Sarah are the best dog sitters! Cassie loves visiting them. They are super attentive, great with communication, and truly it is a home away from home for Cassie. This was our third visit with them and we will keep using them as needed. Do not hesitate to book with them.

Whitney was wonderful! She made our pups feel right at home and eased their sitter/ boarding anxiety by taking great care of them and sticking to their routine. She accommodated our last minute booking request and sent updates so our minds were completely at ease while our 2 large rescue dogs were in her care. I highly recommend Whitney to care for your pups!

Kalley was amazing!! I needed a new sitter as my previous sitter stopped doing in-home boarding, and Kalley was phenomenal. She was very attentive and kept me updated daily on how Marley was doing via text and pictures. I knew he was extremely comfortable in her home which really put me at ease. Thank you Kalley to you and your family for taking such good care of Marley!

My lively puppy had such a fabulous time at the Millers that she was reluctant to leave. I say "the Millers" because, although Ruth is the sitter, they are a package deal -- a lovely family with a welcoming menagerie of their own. Ruth was extremely generous in the frequency of her communications and in their newsy content. Knowing your pet is happy while you are away is the greatest relief possible. I am so grateful to have found Ruth and look forward to working with her in years to come.

Rebekah was so wonderful with our puppy. She asked us what we needed her to do with him in terms of feeding, sleeping, and potty breaks and then went above and beyond that by making sure he had more than enough outside time, playing with other dogs, and working on training him to sit, stay, lay etc. She also kept us very updated on how our puppy was doing. If we could give Rebekah more stars than five, we would!

I highly recommend Darian to take care of your pets! I needed someone reliable, and on very short notice, to take care of my precious skittish cat for three weeks. Darian did a wonderful job tending to all my cat's needs, and she accomplished the amazing by quickly getting my suspicious, standoffish cat to allow her to pet her! Darian also went the extra mile of cleaning up the floor several times when my cat coughed up hairballs and had other tummy issues. Darian had not taken care of my pet before, but she stepped in like a pro and took care of her, and kept tabs on my house as well. As I said at first, I highly recommend Darian for your pet!

Cav and his wife took great care of our sweet Parsley while we were in Luray for a quick family getaway this past weekend. They showed us the area where Parsley would be staying, safe and clean with little white boards for each doggy detailing their needs (they had only one other canine customer at the time that Parsley was there). Their land is beautiful and they sent us pictures of Parsley while she was enjoying her time with them. Cav and his wife are kind and professional humans who are clearly committed to taking care of the dogs staying with them. We will be back!

About: I grew up on a mini farm surrounded by animals — from lizards and hermit crabs to dogs, cats, horses, and chickens. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets of all ages and needs, from anxious puppies and kittens to senior dogs with health or mobility challenges, as well as cats with special needs. Every pet in my care receives the same love and attention I would give my own. I’m available to provide flexible care around errands and appointments, giving your pets love, attention, playtime, companionship, and comfort throughout the day, tailored to each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your routines carefully to ensure comfort and familiarity. Pets are supervised at all times, with fresh water, treats, and attention. I maintain feeding schedules, potty breaks, and playtime, adapting to any special needs, mobility issues, or anxieties. Safety, consistency, and love are my priorities, so your pet feels secure and cared for while you’re away. In my home, I introduce pets safely, separating them from my own during initial meetings. I provide a secure space for each pet and use mini fencing to ensure safety, even though my property is not fully fenced. I follow the same level of care and safety as I would in your home.

Not only did she accept my last minute booking, but she was open and very negotiable with pick uo & drop off times. She frequently sent pics, walked my pup multiple time a day & had no doubts leaving my dog in her care. Would highly encourage anyone to consider booking her for pet services!

About: Hello all! I’d love to help you with your pet care needs. I have had pets most of my life, and am the current owner of a 3 year old chihuahua mix, and an 12 year old chocolate point siamese. I started using Rover over the summer a few years ago and have had so many amazing clients! It has also been a great experience when it comes to socializing my young pup. Before using Rover, I took care of family members pets and would find my own boarding, dog walking and drop in clients. I currently do pet sitting in addition to my full time job. I work for a high school so I get plenty of dates off including winter, spring and summer breaks. During these times I’d be home full time. Otherwise, Monday-Friday I care for the dogs when I wake up, go to work, come home and continue their care. That’s pretty much all I do. I have a fenced yard that gives my boarders (as well as my pup) plenty of room to run and play! Boarders stay on the main level of my house and are allowed on furniture, unless discouraged by owners. You are more than welcome to bring anything you think would make your pet more comfortable during their stay (ex. Beds, crates, favor toys or treats). If you crate your dog/s at night or while no one is home, I will do the same. I work full time but can balance your pets needs with my schedule. They will have a morning routine of going outside to potty and eating before I head to work. I often leave a tv on for them and I also have cameras to keep an eye on them while away. When I return home, they will have free roam from being inside to going out to the fenced yard to play and explore whenever they would like. I’ll feed again in the evenings (based on your feeding instruction of course) and eventually tuck them in for bed. :) For boarding, your pet will have access to my fenced in backyard where they can play and explore. When I’m away from the house, I can crate your pet upon your request. I leave it up to the owner! Your pet will be boarded on my main level. I NEVER leave pets outside and unattended while away from the house.

About: * If you live in Poland I will give you a 10% discount on house sitting Hi, I’m Makaylah! I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and have experience with a wide range of pets—including dogs, cats, rabbits, rats, hamsters, mice, and chickens. I work from home full-time, which means I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I practice positive reinforcement only. It helps build trust, keep things safe, and it is most successful for long term behavior. I like to include trick training during my visits. I've helped dogs learn sit, down, shake, speak, spin, and touch (nose to hand). It’s a great way to keep them mentally engaged and build confidence, especially for anxious pups. I also have experience in administering oral medications and caring for senior animals. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own, and I’ll keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you always know how they’re doing. Im wfh and have pets of my own so I'm always home! My schedule is overall very flexible, and I can shift things around to make things work especially for repeats. Go on vacation or give yourself a weekend away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will follow your care instructions closely and keep routines consistent to help your pet feel secure. At my home, I have a fully fenced yard where they can play and explore safely. No matter the place, I will focus on maintaining a calm, secure environment.

Valery did a great job watching our 3 dogs earlier this year. She walked them and let them play in an open area which we really appreciated. She seems like a true dog lover. Highly recommend her.

About: I love animals, all of them. No matter how big or how small, they all deserve love. I love taking dogs on walks, seeing how excited they get for all the lovin from people. I’ve taken care of dogs for many years, my friends and family always ask if I can watch their dogs and make sure they go out and use the bathroom, are feed and have water. And most importantly that they play their little heart out. I’m currently part-time, so I’ll have all the time in the world to make sure your animals are well take care of and that means more play time! I’m available all week after noon. I have a fenced backyard, and I’m easily able to put my cats up, giving your pup all the love and attention they need and deserve!

About: Dogs have always been part of our life and are treated as a member of the family. When in our house the dogs are allowed on furniture and we will treat them as they were our dog. We welcome calls to check up on your animal while they are staying with us. We will give them plenty of attention and someone will be around in the house to make sure they are doing well. We look forward to having your animal stay will us and giving them attention while they are here. We can even send you pictures or videos while you are gone to see how they are enjoying their stay. I am retired as a special education teacher and enjoy animals. Last year I lost my dog Sammy who was 19 years old and look forward to being with dogs. Our family treats pets like part of our family. We like to spend time with them and interact in the house as well as outside.

About: I started my journey with dogs 4 years ago and have not looked back enjoying every moment since. I am a certified trainer who loves improving the relationship between human and dog. We have a dog yard plus 5 acres. All dogs stay in our extra bedroom, which is now considered the dog room. I personally have two dogs, a cattle dog and a husky mix. They are both very social with all other dogs. We like to have a good time here but I keep a very safe environment for the dogs, no fighting or picking on one another. NO DOG IS TURNED AWAY. If you think your dog is aggressive, I can and will evaluate them so that if possible, we will get them socializing with their own kind and having a great time. Thanks, have a good day! I train dogs for a living so I stay at my house 7 days a week besides when I work with clients and those lessons tend to run about an hour but no more than 2 hours! I have 9 years experience running my own kennel and have two dogs with a large fence so there will be no boredom here! I do prefer to kennel dogs for the night but as we get comfortable with each other they will start to earn more freedom! Pet care is my full time job and i wouldn’t have it any other way, it has been a blessing. I hope I can help make your schedule less stressful! While you’re away, let your dogs play! I have a five foot fenced in dog yard specifically for dogs. We also have another 5 acres that we will walk all client dogs on during their stay with us.-

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 7 years, and it’s something I genuinely love. I have experience with dogs of all sizes from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra care and attention. I treat every pet like family and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Pet care is a regular and rewarding part of my weekly routine. I’m calm, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s needs making sure they get the right balance of exercise, playtime, and rest throughout the day. Pets stay in a clean, cozy, and pet-friendly space with plenty of room to relax or play, including a fully fenced yard where they can safely explore and enjoy the outdoors. There’s always someone home even if I need to step out briefly, my mom grandma or my boyfriend, who are both equally experienced and caring with pets, are always around to help. I usually introduce them during meet and greets so everyone feels comfortable and at ease

My lively puppy had such a fabulous time at the Millers that she was reluctant to leave. I say "the Millers" because, although Ruth is the sitter, they are a package deal -- a lovely family with a welcoming menagerie of their own. Ruth was extremely generous in the frequency of her communications and in their newsy content. Knowing your pet is happy while you are away is the greatest relief possible. I am so grateful to have found Ruth and look forward to working with her in years to come.

She asked us what we needed her to do with him in terms of feeding, sleeping, and potty breaks and then went above and beyond that by making sure he had more than enough outside time, playing with other dogs, and working on training him to sit, stay, lay etc. She also kept us very updated on how our puppy was doing. If we could give Rebekah more stars than five, we would!

About: I grew up on a mini farm surrounded by animals — from lizards and hermit crabs to dogs, cats, horses, and chickens. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets of all ages and needs, from anxious puppies and kittens to senior dogs with health or mobility challenges, as well as cats with special needs. Every pet in my care receives the same love and attention I would give my own. I’m available to provide flexible care around errands and appointments, giving your pets love, attention, playtime, companionship, and comfort throughout the day, tailored to each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your routines carefully to ensure comfort and familiarity. Pets are supervised at all times, with fresh water, treats, and attention. I maintain feeding schedules, potty breaks, and playtime, adapting to any special needs, mobility issues, or anxieties. Safety, consistency, and love are my priorities, so your pet feels secure and cared for while you’re away. In my home, I introduce pets safely, separating them from my own during initial meetings. I provide a secure space for each pet and use mini fencing to ensure safety, even though my property is not fully fenced. I follow the same level of care and safety as I would in your home.
