“Rebecca was absolutely amazing. I would consider my dog to be very sensitive, but she seemed to have a great time. Rebeccas dogs are well behaved and new when to approach or back off. I highly recommend her and would be comfortable leaving Molly again for a stay.”


“Marcela and her family took great care of my two cats and one dog while I was away for nearly 10 days. She sent me updates each day and I can tell my pets bonded with her and were very comfortable. Great communication and ease of drop off + pick up. 10/10 would book her again!”

“David and his family are amazing! He is very diligent in sending pictures and updates. Otis loves going over there. They give him lots of love, cuddles, treats, walks, and exercise. Otis is excited every time we pull up to the house and I know he is well taken care of when he is there.”


“Heather was very accommodating in the drop off time and pickup time, especially during the busy Christmas weekend. She sent us regular photos and replied quickly to messages.”

“Carlos took fantastic care of our dog Eddie! He was very communicative, sent lots of pictures and updates throughout Eddie's stay and also took Eddie on several walks a day. He really took great care of Eddie and it was really the best Rover stay Eddie has had yet! I could tell Eddie had a great time going on walks, playing with Carlos's dogs and I will definitely have Carlos watch him again in the future!”

“Megha & Irene were great sitters. Treated Winston like a member of the family. They were very welcoming during the meet & greet and communicative during the stay and I could tell Winston really enjoyed himself by the pictures and when I picked him up.”

“Camila is so friendly & sweet! I know our golden retriever absolutely loved her and her family! I had a peace of mind knowing he was in good hands and had daily updates thanks to Camila! I would absolutely use Camila’s boarding service again. Thanks again, Camila!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Jona. She is kind, patient, and took the time to truly understand our dogs' needs and routine. Communication was excellent, with regular updates and photos that gave us real peace of mind. Jona is incredibly attentive, not just to our dog, but to all the dogs in her care, and creates a warm, comfortable environment where pets feel at home. We would happily book with Jona again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”

“Yolismal was wonderful. She took very good care of our boy. He takes medications twice a day and can be a handful during walks and she handled it all with patience and grace. She sent photos to us and provided regular updates on how things were going. We would recommend her and will be using her again.”

“We were able to meet with Vanessa and Geoffrey ahead of the booking and everything went smoothly! They have a nice set up for the dogs and provide pics/videos to update you each day. I also appreciate them for being able to accommodate our last minute request. We would use them again!”

“My two cockapoos had the best time with Ada over a long holiday weekend! I really appreciated her flexibility when my travel plans changed a little and our flight got delayed. The doggies were always so happy in the photos she sent and they were super tired when they got home.”

“Just perfect. Michelle has a lovely home with a nice park and lake area in the backyard for the dogs to enjoy. Very safe area well away from roads. Michelle communicated very well, sent photos and updates, and was completely flexible with drop off and pickup times. Someone was home with my pup all the time and Zoey really seemed to love her stay with Michelle. Highly recommended.”

“Abby and her family were wonderful care givers of our elderly pets. Our buddies were in their care for more than a week and I can tell they were able to stick to the feeding routine. Our pets comeback in good shape. Thanks Abby and family!”

“1st time with Vronnie, definitely not the last. She is definitely a dog lover and someone who I would truly recommend as a sitter for your furbaby. She made both me and my pup feel welcome from the start during the meet & greet and sent photos throughout his stay with her.”

“Elizabeth has watched our cat many times and has always done a great job watching him. He loves her. She is experienced and responsible and I recommend her.”


“They took exceptional care of my sweet girl cat, Harley while we were away and gave me complete peace of mind throughout the entire experience. They were reliable, attentive, and clearly have a genuine love for animals.”


“Diana is our go-to sitter for our cat Lola. Diana goes above and beyond to spend extra time with Lola, and always sends us the best updates with lots of pictures and videos. She even offered to sweep up a mess that Lola had made with litter, which goes beyond the call of duty. We'd be happy to use her again!”


“Taylor was very flexible and took great care of our cat Billy. This was our first time needing a petsitter, and it was a huge relief for us to know he was in good hands while we were gone. I would definitely rebook with her in the future!”


“Very communicative and helpful. I have two skittish cats and she managed to befriend them - that alone deserves 5 stars! Haha Did a great job, would totally recommend if you need someone to take care of your fur babies.”

About: I’ve had the pleasure of raising my dog from a puppy to now an almost senior dog! He’s been through some challenging health issues, and through it all, I’ve been his caregiver and more. He’s inspired me to return to school to study veterinary medicine and pursue oncology. I’m working towards paying for veterinary assistant program while in school and would love to get more experience in the process! I’m currently taking some courses and have more availability after 11 am on weekdays. I am also available mornings and evenings on weekends! I would say I’m pretty flexible :) I always try my best to keep my dog active, inside and outside of the house. This usually involves going on walks and or doing activities of enrichment at home

“Katherine did a great job helping my mom catch my cat to take him to a vet appointment. She was patient and definitely knew how to handle anxious and hard-to-handle pets. Thank you again, Katherine!”

About: I have raised and taken care of several dogs and a few cats over the years. I make sure the walks taken get enough energy out. I also work full-time at a pet resort prioritizing pet comfort and safety. I’m currently full time, but I will be able to look after your furbabies! I am available anytime from 6am-10pm on Mondays and Tuesdays and 3-10 the rest of the days. There is a dog park located near my address. If I will be coming to your dog for walking, there will be extended walks and dog socialization as requested.
“This was our first time working with Noelle and we couldn't have been happier. Noelle met with us ahead of time to discuss the very picky way we wanted our cats cared for and was absolutely terrific. She applied eyedrops, carefully monitored mealtimes, sent cute pictures/notes and improvised when needed to track down a particularly shy girl. We appreciated her flexibility and sincere care for our treasured rescue crew. Highly recommended 10/10!”

“I have been using Rebecca and Roman for daily daycare services since April 2025. This is my first time using Rover and I have been very pleased with their services. Rebecca and Roman treat my pet as one of their own and they give me the peace of mind I need to focus on other responsibilities I have during the day. Rebecca and Roman notify me right away if there are any concerns they have regarding my pet so I can address them immediately. Rebecca and Roman send me pictures of my pet often which I love. If you are looking for daycare services in a loving home, I recommend Rebecca and Roman. ❤️”


“My dog and I just moved to a new area so I was anxious about finding someone to watch him while we get settled. Jennifer and Justin were so kind and sent me plenty of photos throughout the day. They even very kindly washed his bowl after he ate his food. My dog had an amazing time and I would trust them to watch him again”

“Tamara is very reliable dog seater. Communication and accommodation flexibility is to be dependable. Kingsley had a very good time for being first time for him to be cared by Tamara. We are very happy with Tamara. Thank you so much Tamara for caring Kingsley yesterday.”

“Azaria was amazing! She was very responsive, and just had an infectious personality. She was very kind and we knew in an instant that Kole would be in good hands. She sent lots of pictures and Kole seemed very relaxed and happy when we picked him up. We will definitely use Azaria again!”


“Kimberly is Amazing...She will go above and beyond to make things easy for you and your pet. My dog can be apprehensive when meeting new people and was perfectly comfortable meeting and staying with her🥰. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their pet.”


“I had such a great experience with her! She and her mom took amazing care of Lulu and Toby while I was away. I really appreciated the consistent updates and pictures, it gave me so much peace of mind throughout the day. You can tell they genuinely care, because every time I picked up my puppies, they were happy, calm, and well taken care of. That alone says everything. I’m so grateful to have found them and will definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!”

“Chloe loves to go visit Anna! She is an awesome pet sitter and responds quickly to me, sends pictures of Chloe, and is very flexible. She will always be my first contact when I need a pet sitter”

“I'm really glad I found Nikhita because she was wonderful - easy to communicate with and made the whole process easy. She's flexible along with having a welcoming, clean home that our 6-month old puppy was very comfortable to be in. We'll definitely reach out to Nikhita again in the future!”

“Dana was so sweet and took such great care of Thor. I felt at ease when I left him because he ran to her right away and she welcomed him with open arms. I think puppies are just like babies, they can sense when they are loved by how we embrace them. It made me so much as ease knowing that he wasn’t going to be crated the entire time. Thank you so so much, Dana!!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets, even multiple pets at the same time. I don’t mind overnight boarding and love going on long walks and feeding happy doggies. I work part time because my husband mostly is gone and I need to watch my kitty whom is lovely but cannot be left alone for long.

Pets are so wonderful they give more fo the world than I’ll ever be able to give back!
About: Growing up in the Philippines with 16 guard dogs shaped my deep love for animals. I truly believe pets are precious and deserve kindness and respect. Hi, I’m Mesh! I have years of experience caring for dogs and genuinely enjoy giving them love, attention, and playtime. We have a fully fenced yard and a friendly, laid-back cat named Mow-Mow. My husband works for the Government remotely, and I’m a stay-at-home mom of three, so your fur baby will receive plenty of time, care, and supervision. I provide regular potty breaks, outdoor play, and always make sure pets stay cool and comfortable, especially on hot days. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy so you can relax while you’re away, I’d love to help. We will love your fur baby like our own! PLEASE NOTE: A meet and greet is required with a physical presence of your dog before any booking is confirmed. Without a meet and greet, I am unable to accept bookings. Feel free to reach out anytime 🐾 My husband works remotely and I am a stay-at-home mom. And I guarantee a 24/7 on hand pet care for your pups. I update my availability every now and then.. And I accept booking on weekends.. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. In our home, pets stay in a clean, calm, and loving environment with a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play.

“Alexander was FANTASTIC! He waited outside to pick us up so I could get to work on time. He was very respectful and Cocoa had a blast! He kept us informed the whome day with what was going on with her and posted pics so we could check in on her which gives us peace of mind. We need him permanently!!”


“Jen is kind and caring about the dogs she sits. Her older dog and Bella do well together. So does the other dog who is also older than Bella. And she has enough indoor space and outdoors on deck and grass for the dogs to have variety in their surroundings. She also walks them 2 or 3 times a day, another plus. And her doggie healthy biscuits that she bakes has Bella begging for more!!”

“Grace is so wonderful! I am so glad I found her. My sweet almost 13 year old beagle absolutely loves her! She sends me lots of pics and keeps me updated with how the visit/ walk is going.

I know my fur baby is well taken care of when I go to work and I don’t have to worry with having someone that I can trust!”

She knows exactly what needs and makes sure he feels supported and happy on their daily walks. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone who lives in the area!!”

About: I have always had a love and passion for animals since I was a little girl. I started in elementary school by offering to walk my neighbors' dogs just so I could have the opportunity to play with them. Over the years, I have gained even more love and experience in properly caring for all animals as if they were my own. I am a student at JMU who is looking for something part time. I have a lot of free time in the afternoon and most weekends which I would love to spend my time with your wonderful animals! I currently live in an apartment building but is willing to take them in, take them to dog parks, and go on long walks. I am comfortable and flexible on what I would need to do to ensure the happiness and safety for your pets!

About: I have been around all kinds of cats and dogs. I’ve been petsitting in my neighborhood since the summer of 2019. I am offering overnight services! I am not in season for volleyball and I am on summer break until August 15. I am taking summer classes this summer so I am not available Monday-Thursday 11:30-1:30! I will plan to drop in before and after my classes though! I prefer not to bring any pets into my home. However, I am more comfortable with staying overnight in the owner’s home with the pets!
About: I’ve volunteered at shelters since I was 15 (Prince William County and Lost Dog & Cat Rescue). I’ve had dogs in my family since I was 8. I have a friendly Irish Setter named Lacy at home, who loves new friends. I am currently unemployed and in grad school (virtual) so my schedule is open at the moment. My normal pet care routine is centered around my dog which is very low maintenance but will make adjustments according to needs of each dog. I have a fenced in backyard. The back yard is not massive but there is a lake at the end of my neighborhood that I take my dog too every day. I have one very friendly Irish Setter. She is 3 years old and spayed.
About: I have loved animals, especially dogs, since I was a little boy! For the past 10 years, friends and family have trusted me to care for, walk, and watch over their pets. Back home in the Philippines, my family has a pack of 7 dogs, including two large Dobermans and five native breeds. Because of this, I am incredibly comfortable and confident handling bigger, stronger dogs. I love staying active and running around, so I am always excited to take energetic pups on fun, high-energy walks. Whether your dog is big or small, I have the strength and experience to keep them safe and happy:) My schedule is incredibly flexible! I don't have a standard 9-to-5 job right now, so I can easily adapt to whatever routine works best for you and your pet. I'm fully available for dog walks and drop-in visits all day long--whether your dog needs an early morning walk, midday potty break or a high-energy evening run. When it comes to drop-ins and walks, safety and trust are very important to me. I'll make sure to always follow your entry instructions to a T and double check that all doors, crates, and gates are secrued before I leave. On walks, I keep a firm grip on the leash and make sure to stay fully aware of our surroundings at all times! And thanks to my experience with bigger breeds, I know how to handle and control stronger dogs safely. I will always treat your home and pets with respect and make sure to provide detailed updates and photos!
“Benji simply adores Kay! She is attentive and adventurous — taking him on nice long walks in our neighborhood. She is timely and thoughtful - sending periodic photos to check-in on his well-being and responding to any inquiries with minutes. To put it plainly, she deserves five stars — would absolutely recommend!”


“Erin has provided daily mid-day walks for my senior beagle mix, Amigo, for more than a month now. She is utterly reliable, punctual, organized, friendly, and simply a joy to work with. Erin is kind and affectionate my dog, and he adores her. She has a wealth of experience in caring for pets and gave me great ideas that I hadn't thought of for making things run smoothly, such as getting a lock box for the house key as well as advice on comforting a dog who's alarmed by thunder and other loud noises. She is a smart, polished professional and the ideal person to hire to care for your beloved pet.”

About: I've taken care of animals my whole life. Friends and family relied on me to walk, feed, bathe/clean, and administer oral and topical medication to their cats and dogs. I keep up with established training routines, as well. And if I see your fury friend enough, I might crochet or them an outfit. I also love taking care of cats! I enjoy exercise especially walking and running, which is a big bonus for larger or more energetic dogs that enjoy running. Sometimes I like to joke the dogs are taking me for a walk. I make sure electronic, small or fragile items are off the floors and placed out of reach. I pay attention to the pet making sure they don't eat anything they aren't supposed to, and I play and interact with the pet to make them feel more comfortable in their environment.
“Kelsey has been absolutely amazing! We have been renewing her services every week because our pup loves her and has a blast on their walks. She has been so responsive and receptive to what we're looking for and just an overall joy to work with. If you're looking for someone reliable that your pets will love, look no further. Thank you, Kelsey!”

Duke always looked so happy and comfortable with her. I will definitely use her again!!”
