“Candace was a great sitter! Her parents were helpful as well. Cassie was in good hands and was well taken care of. We were so thankful they accommodated us picking up Cassie after our evening flight.”
“I asked Kristen as a last minute trip came up that I needed a sitter for. She responded quickly and said YES. It was a 10 day boarding and I do not have one complaint. I am so thankful for her. My dog was healthy and happy when I picked her up. I have another trip soon so I will ask for her.”
“Angela did a great job with our Penny. She kept us updated throughout our 8 nights apart. She made me feel like she was taking great care of our dog. Although i missed Penny while were were gone i was never worried about her. I would definitely ask Angela to care for our dog next time.”
“A little far out but definitely worth it for our dog to have such a wonderful farm environment to roam and play. Maribel and Carl are wonderful and so attentive to dogs in their care! They carefully acclimate your dog to their farm property and then give them the opportunity to run and frolic with other dogs (on long leads). The kennel area attached to the house is a clean secure place for dogs to rest after exercise. Big plus; they send you pictures daily of the fun and rest times your dog is having! If you're looking for an adventuresome place to leave your dog while on vacation I highly recommend Maribel and Carl's farm haven!”
“Natalie took care of my sweet pittbull for 26 days while I traveled outside the country! At first I was nervous because the pictures had not been updated and honestly the appearance is slightly jarring at first. However if you can look past that, Natalie is a passionate dog owner, her own dogs are healthy, happy and well trained. My pittbull has tons of allergies and requires supplements, oral drops, baths, and topical foam. Natalie was willing to take that on, and provide a routine for my dog so that she could play, socialize, and be well cared for. Natalie gives daily pictures so you can visualize your dog is safe and sound! Don’t judge a book by its cover!! I am so glad my dog found her rhythm and enjoyed her time with Natalie. Highly recommend her! My dog came back looking shinny and happy! Will book her again!!”
“Kayleigh and her children treated my dog like he was one of theirs .Communication was great she gave me updates to help my anxiety as well . Zeus came back home with out a cough which was definitely a plus for me . I will definitely be going to her again”
“My Shitzhu twins spent their first stay with John. I could not have asked for a better caregiver. John gave regular updates, spent quality time with the dogs, and provided absolutely first-class care, as good or better than if they were at home. They will definitely be visiting John again.”
“Asausha was so sweet and my dog Butter seemed very content with her. She sent pics to assure us that Butter was doing well while we were so far away which was a great relief to us. I totally recommend her services.”
“Jody took amazing care of our boy Sam while we were gone! Sam is not the easiest dog in the world to care for, he has extra medical and anxiety needs, and Jody didn't hesitate to take him on. She provided ample daily updates, sent pictures and videos, and communicated promptly any time we reached out for an update. Thank you, Jody! The Fultz Family and Sam appreciate you!”
“She is so amazing. This was the first time I had to “board” any of my animals. I was nervous beyond words, I meet with her prior and she made me feel at ease. The morning she came to pick up my babies she reassured me they will be fine. I was a wreck, but Samantha would frequently send pics and updated messages. It did comfort me some, but I just wanted to cuddle my babies. Overall, even though I was copete worry wart, she took great care of my babies. I greatly appreciate her for everything she did.”
“Thank you for the amazing care you provided for our new puppy!! We had to leave her for two weeks, and felt comfortable doing so. The pictures and messages were very appreciated. We will be back!”
“They looked like they had a great time! Was given plenty of attention and treats. Did not appear overly hungry or thirsty when we brought them back home telling me they were given plenty of food and water. Liked that Lydia has a fenced in back yard and appreciated the daily picture updates and video without me having to ask first. Was also able to get us in last minute and was very responsive. Would highly recommend!”
“McKenanne was absolutely amazing with our dog, Peaches! She sent the cutest pics and video during her stay and it was clear that Peaches was having a blast! I’d recommend her to anyone that’s looking for a kind and reliable dog sitter.”
“Amanda and her family treated my pup like he was their own. He barely even wanted to leave. She had constant communication and sent photos which made me feel good about my fur baby. I will definitely continue to use her while we live in the Penhook area.”
“My Buster loves visiting Sherry and her family, and always comes home exhausted. That tells me he had a lot of fun. It is pretty obvious from photos that Sherry spoils him during his stay, and I love that.”

He was very professional and has great reasonable prices. You can tell he is very experienced and I would send my pup to him any time I need to. 5/5 stars and 100% recommended.”
“Pamela took really good care of our dog. This is our first time using Rover. Pamela made it very pleasant experience. She was very responsive, sent us dog pictures and gave him all the belly rubs.

About: I’ve never had a cat until I was grown, my mom and grandma have always been scared of them and more of dog people.

About: I have experience caring for German Shepards and other large breed dogs. I am very passionate about the care I give and making sure the dog's needs are met. I am currently in school to be a nurse and do not have any other job. Most weekends I am free and can work around my schedule to provide for your pet. Because of my dogs I own I will not allow other dogs to stay at my house due to my dogs being a little territorial and not knowing how they could react to a new dog on their land. In a client's house I will do just as instructed by the owner in order to keep their beloved fur baby safe and sound under my watch.

About: I have just moved back home for the summer before heading off to medical school in the Fall. For the past year, I have been dog sitting in Charlottesville, VA through the Rover app. I absolutely loved experiencing so many different breeds and interacting with different ages, temperaments, and neediness. While I am unable to dog sit while home, I figured dog walking and check ins would be a great alternative. This summer, I will not be working so I am available any time of day to care of your precious pets while you’re busy with other responsibilities! I am a very trust worthy individual and precious clients have trusted me with full access to their homes when needed. I will always be conscious of your pets individualized needs during the walk as well as securely closing up your home when leaving.
About: I am a "gentle giant" with a lifelong passion for animals and over 19 years of experience providing dedicated pet care. By trade, I work in the electric industry, which means dependability, safety, and attention to detail are built into everything I do. When you leave your home and your furry family members in my hands, you can rest easy knowing they are being watched by someone who is as responsible as they are soft-hearted With my background in electrical work, I am naturally observant and highly dependable. I treat your home with the same respect and care that I treat your pets. Animals truly take to me. I provide a calm, steady presence that helps even the most anxious pets feel safe and relaxed. I am also an avid photographer! You won't just get a "check-in" text; you’ll receive high-quality, beautiful photos of your pets throughout the day so you can see exactly how happy and settled they are. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a steady hand for medication, or just a big guy to curl up next to for a nap, I am here to provide the five-star care they deserve Please don't hesitate to reach out. I have a special place in my heart for senior animals. I understand that older pets require a patient, calm energy and a gentle touch. I am fully experienced in administering medications—whether it’s pills, liquids, or specialized care—and I am highly attuned to the subtle changes in a senior pet's comfort and behavior.

Im currently a student so I have an open availability to take care of your fur babies😊 I can come multiple times a day also!! I care for pets like their mine. I will make sure they are comfortable and know their safe. If I’m in anyones home, I would treat it as if it was mine!

About: I am an experienced pet caregiver based near the Smith Mountain Lake area. I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of dogs, including large breeds, and am comfortable administering oral medications, providing bathing and basic grooming care, and handling dogs with different temperaments and needs. My experience comes from both personal and professional care. I have cared for my own dogs, as well as my parents’ and sister’s dogs, giving me regular, real-world experience with daily routines, exercise, feeding schedules, and overall pet wellbeing. Professionally, I have worked at a dog kennel where I was responsible for feeding, bathing, and supervising dogs in group play settings while ensuring safety and appropriate behavior. I also worked as a bather at a pet store, where I gained experience handling dogs during grooming-related services and maintaining their comfort throughout the process. I take pride in providing reliable, attentive care and treating every pet as if they were my own. I'm currently an aspiring Graphic Designer who just graduated from JMU. I am back home in the area for a while and looking to gain some clients while I’m there. I am willing to travel to your home to dog sit and give your dog the best care that I can while your gone. By taking your dog to potty, feeding and giving extra love.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life! To me, dogs are family, they deserve to be treated like like prince or princess they are. I’ll love your pup like my own, I’ll play with them, and I’ll make sure they’re in the best care possible! I’ve been mainly around small breeds (chihuahuas, Pomeranians, dachshund, and certain mixed breeds) but I will love any dog of any breed or size! I’ve always loved taking care of animals and giving them a disgustingly amount of love (haha). I’ve nursed puppies back to health and I’ve spent the final moments with senior dogs making the most of their final days. I would love to meet your dog and your family! I’m available almost always and can be flexible with my schedule, if you need me I’m there! I look forward to meeting your precious puppy and your family! :-)
About: @ateamdogcare I have been using rover for 6 years now. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats who have been with the dogs since they were 3 weeks old. We live on 2 acres with a great fenced in yard. We love hosting pets and will treat them like our own. Im always home so let’s can stay on their normal schedules and have someone around while you’re gone. Feel free to message me with any questions! I also have experience with medications, including injectable ones. When your pup comes to stay with us we ask that you bring; their food, treats, favorite toys/bones, bed or blanket, crate (if you use one), bowls, and a leash. Or anything that might make your dogs stay easier! :)
About: I have been raising and caring for a variety of animals for over 25 years! Having experience with all kinds of animals, I know the importance of meeting the needs of each animal and giving it the love and care it deserves and desires. I have several families that reach out to me when they are planning a trip so that I can care for their pets while they are away. I understand the importance of maintaining the pet owners routine, commands, and affection with their pets to help reduce anxiety and stress while they are away. My goal is to love their pets as if they are my own. I have cared for our own dogs as seniors and have experience with failing body functions and know how to administer medications and assist the animal with getting up and moving around. I also have much experience with puppies since I breed Australian Shepherds and care for the puppies from the time they are born until they are at an appropriate age and health standard to go to their new families. I am so excited to meet many other pet families in our area and love on your pet so you can feel comfortable and at peace any time you need to travel and your pet has to stay behind. It’s hard enough to say good-bye, so having peace of mind on how they will be cared for while you are away can make a good trip a GREAT one!! I am available most days of the week for 24/7 care since we are a homeschooling family and I am a stay at home mom. Pets are allowed in our home as long as they get along well with other pets and children. I do have an in-ground fence and collars that I can use to teach your pet to stay in our yard. I also have two nice size kennels that give dogs plenty of room to wander inside and outside the kennel walls.

“Candace was a great sitter! Her parents were helpful as well. Cassie was in good hands and was well taken care of. We were so thankful they accommodated us picking up Cassie after our evening flight.”
“I asked Kristen as a last minute trip came up that I needed a sitter for. She responded quickly and said YES. It was a 10 day boarding and I do not have one complaint. I am so thankful for her. My dog was healthy and happy when I picked her up. I have another trip soon so I will ask for her.”
“Angela did a great job with our Penny. She kept us updated throughout our 8 nights apart. She made me feel like she was taking great care of our dog. Although i missed Penny while were were gone i was never worried about her. I would definitely ask Angela to care for our dog next time.”
“A little far out but definitely worth it for our dog to have such a wonderful farm environment to roam and play. Maribel and Carl are wonderful and so attentive to dogs in their care! They carefully acclimate your dog to their farm property and then give them the opportunity to run and frolic with other dogs (on long leads). The kennel area attached to the house is a clean secure place for dogs to rest after exercise. Big plus; they send you pictures daily of the fun and rest times your dog is having! If you're looking for an adventuresome place to leave your dog while on vacation I highly recommend Maribel and Carl's farm haven!”
“Natalie took care of my sweet pittbull for 26 days while I traveled outside the country! At first I was nervous because the pictures had not been updated and honestly the appearance is slightly jarring at first. However if you can look past that, Natalie is a passionate dog owner, her own dogs are healthy, happy and well trained. My pittbull has tons of allergies and requires supplements, oral drops, baths, and topical foam. Natalie was willing to take that on, and provide a routine for my dog so that she could play, socialize, and be well cared for. Natalie gives daily pictures so you can visualize your dog is safe and sound! Don’t judge a book by its cover!! I am so glad my dog found her rhythm and enjoyed her time with Natalie. Highly recommend her! My dog came back looking shinny and happy! Will book her again!!”
“Kayleigh and her children treated my dog like he was one of theirs .Communication was great she gave me updates to help my anxiety as well . Zeus came back home with out a cough which was definitely a plus for me . I will definitely be going to her again”
“My Shitzhu twins spent their first stay with John. I could not have asked for a better caregiver. John gave regular updates, spent quality time with the dogs, and provided absolutely first-class care, as good or better than if they were at home. They will definitely be visiting John again.”
“Jody took amazing care of our boy Sam while we were gone! Sam is not the easiest dog in the world to care for, he has extra medical and anxiety needs, and Jody didn't hesitate to take him on. She provided ample daily updates, sent pictures and videos, and communicated promptly any time we reached out for an update. Thank you, Jody! The Fultz Family and Sam appreciate you!”
“She is so amazing. This was the first time I had to “board” any of my animals. I was nervous beyond words, I meet with her prior and she made me feel at ease. The morning she came to pick up my babies she reassured me they will be fine. I was a wreck, but Samantha would frequently send pics and updated messages. It did comfort me some, but I just wanted to cuddle my babies. Overall, even though I was copete worry wart, she took great care of my babies. I greatly appreciate her for everything she did.”
“Thank you for the amazing care you provided for our new puppy!! We had to leave her for two weeks, and felt comfortable doing so. The pictures and messages were very appreciated. We will be back!”
“They looked like they had a great time! Was given plenty of attention and treats. Did not appear overly hungry or thirsty when we brought them back home telling me they were given plenty of food and water. Liked that Lydia has a fenced in back yard and appreciated the daily picture updates and video without me having to ask first. Was also able to get us in last minute and was very responsive. Would highly recommend!”
“McKenanne was absolutely amazing with our dog, Peaches! She sent the cutest pics and video during her stay and it was clear that Peaches was having a blast! I’d recommend her to anyone that’s looking for a kind and reliable dog sitter.”
“Amanda and her family treated my pup like he was their own. He barely even wanted to leave. She had constant communication and sent photos which made me feel good about my fur baby. I will definitely continue to use her while we live in the Penhook area.”
“My Buster loves visiting Sherry and her family, and always comes home exhausted. That tells me he had a lot of fun. It is pretty obvious from photos that Sherry spoils him during his stay, and I love that.”
About: I've taken care of animals since I was 5 years old. I have always loved animals and taking care of them. My family has a poodle, a great Pyrenees and 10 cats which we all rescued from the streets. I work everyday 6 am to 3/4 pm, but as soon as I get off work I can come and spend the rest of the day playing with your loved ones. I treat my pets like gold and like the princess and princes that they are and would love to give the same care to yours. I am clean and responsible so you can have peace of mind while away that your pets are in the best possible hands.
“My fiancé and I went on a 5 day vacation out of town and our pup seemed to have such a great time with Richard & Kelly. I got updates, pictures and quick responses! He was very professional and has great reasonable prices. You can tell he is very experienced and I would send my pup to him any time I need to. 5/5 stars and 100% recommended.”
“Jessica was super awesome and flexible. We took care of Jupiter and also provided some feedback about something we had not thought of regarding her Mobility. Although it wasn't a good fit she did a wonderful job thank you again”
“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”
“Lawdy is an excellent sitter, very sweet and professional! She took care of my two boys like they was here very own, and they absolutely took to her, she gave more that a few daily updates, and that was very very comforting, and when Lawdy returned them to us, you could absolutely tell Brutus and Zeus was happy. They would run to us then back to her, I can’t say enough thank you’s to her… we highly recommend her and I will be using her services in the future”
“David Is calm and caring and took great care of Watson. I don’t often leave Watson but when I do he usually comes home unnerved. That was not the case this time. Thank you!”
