“Tamra has kept Scooter on several occasions for us. Once for 2 weeks while I traveled overseas and very recently (under short notice) she took him in for us. Scooter absolutely adores Tamra. That is why I cannot see myself going with anyone else to watch Scooter. Tamra sends pictures and responds to any inquiries about my furry friend very quickly. She’s definitely the best sitter I’ve met. If you’re reading this review, please know that I rarely write reviews for anything. However, I know that there are many pet owners that probably get anxiety when choosing a sitter. Please know that Tamra will give your pet the love and attention it deserves. She’s absolutely amazing! Thank you Tamra.”
“Leslie is incredibly kind and attentive. She took my dog out for a lot of exercise, and kept him happy and safe while I was away. She provided plenty of photos and video updates and followed instructions to a T. She has a big backyard and comfortable looking house in a quiet neighborhood. My dog is usually pretty shy and can take a long time to warm up to new sitters, but he was right at home with Leslie. I would definitely recommend her to others, and plan to book with her again in the future.”
“Leaving our dog with Kristen was the best boarding experience she'd ever had! We don't often take a vacation without our dog, but the handful of times we had in the past, she was traumatized when I picked her up. She isn't crate trained and hates the little kennels at the vet and other commercial boarding facilities. Kristen's farm was like a vacation for her while we were on vacation! She loved the big open yards, having the run of the house, and being around the other dogs. Kristen is a warm, caring, responsible animal lover. It was like our old girl went to stay with a favorite aunt for a week! When I picked her up, she was dirty and tired and happy. ? Such a wonderful experience! We will always board with Kristen, as long as she can take us”
“This was Duncans second visit with Ali, he stayed over two weeks this time. He came back to me happy, healthy and showed no signs of stress at all. The daily pictures sent to me indicated he was having a fabulous time, enjoying Ali’s family and all the love provided. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing he was being well taken care of. Once again I can highly recommend Ali, she is wonderful!”
“Chaoran genuinely loves dogs and took great care of my dog. As a first-time pet owner, I appreciated helpful advice she shared when I asked. I really appreciate her great service.”
“Highly recommend! They took great care of Blue and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Communication was excellent, and it was clear that Blue was well cared for and treated like part of the family. We really appreciated the updates and attention he received. We would definitely book with them again. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Blue!”
“Maria was wonderful to work with and took very good care of my male lab while I was on a four-day trip. I will book with her again on Rover and highly recommend her.”
“My beagle, Elmer was much loved & taken care of during his stay with Erin & her family. Erin sends lots of photos & sends updates during the visit. Thanks again Erin!”
“Richard took phenomenal care of my dog, Bruno, and I could not recommend him more highly. He truly went above and beyond during Bruno’s stay. Bruno has a daily skin care routine and requires medications, and Richard handled everything perfectly. By the time we picked Bruno up, his skin honestly looked better than when we dropped him off. Richard is clearly experienced and confident administering all types of medications, including injections, which gave me a huge sense of relief and comfort. It’s not easy to find someone you fully trust with a dog that has medical needs, but I felt completely comfortable leaving Bruno in his care. We had daily updates which put our minds at ease You can tell Richard genuinely loves dogs. Bruno got constant attention, enjoyed his backyard, and clearly loved spending time with Richard and his family. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Bruno was being cared for like part of the family. We will absolutely book with Richard again. Richard is officially our new Rover when we go on vacation.”
“We felt very comfortable leaving Barkley with Katherine. It was for only one night and two days but he hasn’t been with anyone else for the year we have had him. Pictures and video were sent to us through out his stay and we loved that. We are very pleased with his stay at Katherine’s and will definitely book a future date with her.”
“Jamie, Mike and the whole family were amazing. It was very easy to book with Jamie and Mike. They were very quick to respond to my initial inquiry and answer any questions I had. They also asked questions and provided details about siting with them, that helped put my mind at ease, since I always worry about being separated from my pup. They were also very good communicating. Making sure we found a drop off and pick up time that works for us both, to sending multiple updates and photos on how my pup was doing while there. I am so grateful they opened their beautiful home, and shared their lovely family with Benjie. If available in the future, I would certainly use them to sit again, and would highly recommend them.”
“Walter and his family are amazing! He provided consistent updates with pictures and was very accommodating to my short notice request. I will be using him again for sure!”
“I can't recommend Eun enough! From the moment we booked, communication was clear, friendly, and professional. What really set her apart, though, was the constant updates and a stream of photos she sent while taking care of our dog. It was so reassuring to see our dog happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for—it made being away so much easier. It’s obvious Eun truly loves animals and treats them like their own. We will absolutely be booking again. Five stars all the way!”
“Stacie was an absolute amazing! She took care of both my dogs; Duke and Rosie, for six days. Rosie stayed with Stacie before, but it was the first time for Duke. Stacie sent photos of both dogs multiple times a day. Duke had a knee surgery couple of years ago, so we were a little concerned, but Stacie was very cautious so he doesn’t hurt himself playing. Rosie is an anxious dog and takes a little time to warm up to people, but has no trouble introducing herself with other dogs, Stacie put us as ease! She provides regular updates throughout the day. In every photo, my dogs looked happy and well cared for. Duke and Rosie were shown a lot of love and attention during their time with Stacie and they came home happy and healthy. I could not have asked for a better person to look after both my dogs. We love Stacie! You are truly an awesome and so good with our two dogs. Many thanks again. We really appreciate all you’ve done with both Duke and Rosie!”
“Marsha and her husband were excellent sitters for our dog over a holiday weekend. They were welcoming during the meet and greet and instilled confidence that our dog would be well cared for. During the visit, we received photo updates including the walks they took our dog on. We would absolutely use Marsha again in the future.”
“Yzabella and her family took AMAZING care of Louie. She was so responsive and sent many photos and videos. I knew he was in great, caring hands. We will absolutely be using her services again very soon 😊”
“Barbara did a wonderful job caring for our dog. She provided daily photo updates and consistent communication, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was clearly well cared for and happy. I would absolutely book Barbara again and highly recommend her.”
“John and Joanna were wonderful with our dogs as usual! Their attention to detail is so reassuring. One of our dogs needed continued medication and they were so good about keeping her on track. They consistently kept me informed. I will continue to use their pet sitting services because I believe there is no one out there who could care for them more.”

“Karen has been a real lifesaver! She has helped out on several occasions (with very short notice) to check on my two dogs and cat. I really appreciate her and my beasts look forward to seeing her again soon!!”
“Madison is extremely dependable, caring, and communicative. My cat enjoys Madison’s visits getting lots of pets as well as fresh food, water, and litter box cleaning. Thank you Madison!”
“Words do not describe how AMAZING Sughra is with our fluffy feline!! We are just back from an 11-day journey overseas, and I could not be more pleased with her care for our boy, and her regular (and surprise) communications throughout our time away. I had a good feeling when I met her prior to our trip. She just seemed very genuine and attentive and dependable. But she went above and beyond in so many ways, I cannot begin to thank her enough for the peace of mind I had while we were gone for our cat and for our home. She exceeded every hope and expectation I had by a mile!! Our cat adores her....maybe more than he likes me!! I wholeheartedly recommend her, and I will definitely reach out to her again when we go out of town. Thank You, Sughra!!”
“Ella was absolutely wonderful! Extremely professional in her communication, always timely, I felt very safe leaving my cats to her services. Ella’s reviews speak for themselves, I will absolutely be booking her services again if I get the opportunity!”
About: Hi, I'm Kate! I grew up with cats and have had at least one cat in my household at all times for my entire life. I have extensive experience with diabetic cats, including administering insulin injections, and have cared for elderly cats necessitating multiple visits per day. In my experience, cats can identify cat people, and I have been able to quickly and consistently gain the trust of even very standoffish cats. As a cat parent myself, I know leaving your fur babies can be worrying, so my goal is to alleviate that. I provide consistent updates and spend extra time giving pets, playtime, and making sure every cat feels loved and cared for while their parent is away. I would love to meet your kitties and hope to provide a great experience for both you and your cat!
“Christin is amazing! She was very accommodating and responded quickly for a last minute booking request. She was so understanding with all of my weird and quirky requests for our special needs kitty, and was able to pill him with ease. She sent detailed updates after every visit with super cute pics. Her care was a great relief- it made our vacation much more enjoyable knowing our furry kids were in such good hands!”
“Ariahna was so good with my cats when I went out of town over the holiday! She took extra time to make friends with the shy ones, provide detailed updates and photos, and went above and beyond to deal with a few accidents 🙈 It was such a relief to find such a conscientious, thorough pet sitter and I would recommend her to anyone!”
“We hired Alexandra for drop-ins for our cat and she was great! At our first meeting she immediately was sitting on the floor giving our cat the affection he was requesting, and he was so happy. While we were gone she gave him all the cuddles he needed (we could tell by his behavior when we returned) and she followed the instructions we left. She always responded to messages quickly and communicated clearly. Definitely recommend.”
“We are so fortunate to have found Mary! She took amazing care of our fur baby! I 100% plan on using her services again. She was reliable, kind and loving. We were able to go overseas for a week without worrying, or feeling guilty. We highly recommend!”
“Pam stayed at our house and watched out dogs while we were away on vacation. She was very good at keeping us posted on how our pets were doing, and watching our house. All went very well, we would use her services again!”

About: I’m a full-time work-from-home professional. Unless I’m traveling for work, I’m home with the pups all day, giving them plenty of attention, love, and care. Please message me for availability—my schedule can often be adjusted to fit your needs. A Few Things to Know: - I focus on dogs 45 lbs and under to ensure everyone stays safe and comfortable. - Dogs will be staying in my home, not a separate kennel area. - I offer free pick up and drop off services so you have one less thing to worry about! Pick up and Drop off must be during daylight hours. Otherwise you will need to pick up or drop off your pup. - If you’d prefer your dog to be the only guest during their stay, just let me know—I’ll do my best to accommodate. - I’ve been petsitting longer than I’ve had my dogs so they’ve been raised with different dogs coming and going and love dogs of all sizes! - I do have chickens and ducks so if your dogs have any prey tendencies, please let me know so I can keep them separated. What Your Dog Can Expect: - Free access to a fully fenced yard for playtime. - Couch privileges and plenty of indoor snuggles. - A daily rhythm of breakfast, play, naps, dinner, and evening exercise. - Lots of dog beds to choose from so everyone always has a comfy space - Walks and leisurely outings if your pup enjoys them.

With me, your pup will get more than just care—they’ll get genuine love, attention, and a home-away-from-home. Send me a message today—I’d love to meet your furry best friend! I work from home full time so I can accommodate all schedules and needs! Usually the day starts with breakfast and a little playtime, followed by afternoon napping and then dinner. More playtime after dinner- to make sure everyone gets their exercise needs met. I love all my dogs and yours too! Dogs are given free access to fully fenced outdoor yard and free access to inside, including being on furniture.
“Stephanie and her family are phonenominal! My dog had her first visit yesterday and was happy and tired from playing with their awesome dog, who is now her new best friend.

About: Hello! I’m Karly. I've worked with animals my entire life - grew up on a farm and have always had dogs around. I have experience with several breed types, temperaments, ages, and personalities. I'm careful to educate myself on any breeds I work with and more importantly will follow all orders you give while caring for your pet. If there's anything I didn't detail please feel free to reach out! It varies but I’m fast to reply in the event I’m unavailable. I’m typically available evenings for walking or check ups and available for boarding most always. It depends almost entirely on the client so long as I feel comfortable and safe with their dog.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was able to walk. I was raised up on a farm caring for numinous animals from cows to baby bunnies. I love all animals especially dogs because, they were my first best friends growing up. I am a college student majoring in the medical field who has all virtual classes giving me a lot of extra time at home. When I am not doing homework I love to go on walks and exercise. I bring my dog along with me everywhere and I would love to bring yours too! I live on a large farm overviewing the Blueridge mountains. The backyard is multiple acres and very open. The yard border's the fences of the cattle fields encompassing my home. My house is three levels with a patio and many relaxing places to sleep or run around. If staying in my home they will have free range of the house unless told otherwise.

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.
“Jordan was amazing! I plan to book her again if available! I can tell my pup was excited & happy with his doggy daycare visits. 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!”

“Laura is so helpful! She was very flexible with my ever changing schedule and took extra time to take care of my sick dog while I was away. She gave him lots of love because my sweet pup didn't seem to miss me at all when I got home!”
About: I have been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up my family has always had a least 2 pets, even having 15 at one point. My love for animals has run deep in me since I was a child, which is why I am currently a pre veterinary student at the College of William and Mary. I have experience training puppies including potty training, assisting senior pets, and providing a full and fun life for all animals. I have previously worked at multiple equestrian training facilities and farms, so I understand how to handle larger animals. I am versed in problem solving and strive to make all pets feel safe and happy. I am currently working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule to care for your animals. I care for my pets on a daily basis so I am always improving my skills and knowledge about the best care practices. I understand every pet and home is different so I try to cater the care to each client, however there are a few things that will always stay the same. First I always ensure I understand the pets feeding and bathroom schedule. This is vital to ensure the happiness and health of all pets. Second I try to make your pet as comfortable with me as possible. Sometimes new people can be scary, so I would allow your pet to make the first move and establish their level of comfort. I find this creates a level of trust and care between me and your pet. Third I follow any specific instructions given by you, the owner. The families always know their pets best, so following their directions helps ensure your pets safety and comfort.

What sets me apart is my deep understanding of each dog’s unique personality and my calm, loving approach that builds real trust with the dogs. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. From morning walks and meal times to play, training, and quiet bonding time, I structure my day around giving each dog the attention and care they need. It’s not just a task—it’s something I truly enjoy and prioritize. I care for pets by following their daily routines, ensuring they have fresh food and water, and giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. In a client’s home, I respect their space, follow all care instructions closely, and make sure their pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.

“Leslie is incredibly kind and attentive. She took my dog out for a lot of exercise, and kept him happy and safe while I was away. She provided plenty of photos and video updates and followed instructions to a T. She has a big backyard and comfortable looking house in a quiet neighborhood. My dog is usually pretty shy and can take a long time to warm up to new sitters, but he was right at home with Leslie. I would definitely recommend her to others, and plan to book with her again in the future.”
“Leaving our dog with Kristen was the best boarding experience she'd ever had! We don't often take a vacation without our dog, but the handful of times we had in the past, she was traumatized when I picked her up. She isn't crate trained and hates the little kennels at the vet and other commercial boarding facilities. Kristen's farm was like a vacation for her while we were on vacation! She loved the big open yards, having the run of the house, and being around the other dogs. Kristen is a warm, caring, responsible animal lover. It was like our old girl went to stay with a favorite aunt for a week! When I picked her up, she was dirty and tired and happy. ? Such a wonderful experience! We will always board with Kristen, as long as she can take us”

“We felt very comfortable leaving Barkley with Katherine. It was for only one night and two days but he hasn’t been with anyone else for the year we have had him. Pictures and video were sent to us through out his stay and we loved that. We are very pleased with his stay at Katherine’s and will definitely book a future date with her.”
“Jamie, Mike and the whole family were amazing. It was very easy to book with Jamie and Mike. They were very quick to respond to my initial inquiry and answer any questions I had. They also asked questions and provided details about siting with them, that helped put my mind at ease, since I always worry about being separated from my pup. They were also very good communicating. Making sure we found a drop off and pick up time that works for us both, to sending multiple updates and photos on how my pup was doing while there. I am so grateful they opened their beautiful home, and shared their lovely family with Benjie. If available in the future, I would certainly use them to sit again, and would highly recommend them.”
“Stacie was an absolute amazing! She took care of both my dogs; Duke and Rosie, for six days. Rosie stayed with Stacie before, but it was the first time for Duke. Stacie sent photos of both dogs multiple times a day. Duke had a knee surgery couple of years ago, so we were a little concerned, but Stacie was very cautious so he doesn’t hurt himself playing. Rosie is an anxious dog and takes a little time to warm up to people, but has no trouble introducing herself with other dogs, Stacie put us as ease! She provides regular updates throughout the day. In every photo, my dogs looked happy and well cared for. Duke and Rosie were shown a lot of love and attention during their time with Stacie and they came home happy and healthy. I could not have asked for a better person to look after both my dogs. We love Stacie! You are truly an awesome and so good with our two dogs. Many thanks again. We really appreciate all you’ve done with both Duke and Rosie!”
“Marsha and her husband were excellent sitters for our dog over a holiday weekend. They were welcoming during the meet and greet and instilled confidence that our dog would be well cared for. During the visit, we received photo updates including the walks they took our dog on. We would absolutely use Marsha again in the future.”
“Barbara did a wonderful job caring for our dog. She provided daily photo updates and consistent communication, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was clearly well cared for and happy. I would absolutely book Barbara again and highly recommend her.”
“Darnell and his wonderful family took care of our 2 doodles upon (very) last minute request over Father’s Day weekend. We received many photos of our good girls and several texts letting us know they were doing. Our girls got along well with their 3 dogs and were nice and tired when we got home! Highly recommend using Darnell and we will definitely be repeat customers. ??”
“Maki and Joel are exceptionally kind Rover hosts! They were patient with my anxious dog and communicated frequently with me, including multiple photos. I cannot say enough good things about them!”
“James and Iryna were great! Mighty the greyhound could not have been happier or had a more enjoyable stay. Thank you for the photos and videos. Will definitely use them again. Highly recommend.”
“Jessica truly went above and beyond while taking care of our dog Frank! She provided many updates and pictures and we knew he was in great care! She is amazing with dogs and would absolutely use her again!”
“Dana is amazing! Our dog Cash walked right on in and made himself at home. Her home is warm and cozy. She is so friendly and helpful and has a natural way with dogs. Cash is skeptical of a lot of people but not with Dana. He acted like he has known her forever! She sent me pictures and videos so I could see he was being well taken care of and having fun at the same time! Thank you Dana!”
“Anahita was great. She met with me ahead of time (conveniently over video) and went over details to make sure my Bruno would be a good fit for her and her smaller dogs. She is experienced and understanding. We needed a bit of flexibility on the drop-off and pickup because of our road trip and she was very accommodating. Thanks Anahita!”
About: Hi! I’m Hope, a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet sitter offering in home dog boarding in a calm, family setting. I’m a stay at home mom to my two year old, so your dog will have constant supervision, attention, and care throughout the day. Our home is peaceful, loving, and ideal for dogs who enjoy being part of a family environment. We’re lucky to have a beautiful setup for pups: a fenced front yard/garden for safe outdoor time, plus an acre of land and nearby dog friendly trails for walks, sniffing, and exploring. Whether your dog loves playtime or prefers a slower pace, I tailor care to their needs and routine. Because I have a young child, I do require that all dogs are comfortable around children. Your dog will be treated like one of our own with plenty of love, structure, and attention so they feel safe, relaxed, and at home while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine since I’m a stay-at-home mom and home throughout the day. Your dog will be part of our everyday rhythm—morning outdoor time, walks, play, rest, and evening wind-down. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, attention, and care without long gaps. Throughout the week, I keep a steady routine while also adjusting to each dog’s needs, energy level, and schedule. My goal is to create a calm, predictable environment where your dog feels comfortable and cared for like part of the family. I send lots of updates and pictures and follow all care instructions carefully! I want you to feel comfortable with your pet in my care!
