“Lauryn and her family are such sweet people and Finn loved being with him. He got all the attention he needed and he came home calm I could tell he was comfortable with his caretakers. Their home was very clean and dog friendly. Lauryn was very communicative and I was assured through meaningful pics and texts that Finn was just fine and enjoying his stay. I am so grateful to have found her. Thank you so much for making our boarding experience a great success.”

“Love Ms. Crystal. Elsa did so good for her. Side sent plenty pictures to keep me informed and I couldn’t be more thankful to know my baby was in great hands. Thank you again. Will be using her services again in the future.”

“Wonderful with the pups and great with communication. Sent me photos multiple times a day to ensure my doggies were being loved and taken care of. Very friendly and accommodating and so easy to work with. They adjusted their schedule to my changing plans.”

“Cristen and her whole family were absolutely amazing with my Norman!! Sent updates regularly and treated him as their own. I couldn’t be more appreciative of them!!”


“Jeff and his family went above and beyond to make Lily, and us, feel comfortable. They treated Lily as if she were there own dog and provided periodic photos and updates. We would definitely use them again to watch our Lily!!”
“Turbo absolutely loves Amanda and Scott! However, I think he loves his buddy Walter the most !! Absolutely best sitters ever. We never worry when we drop Turbo off bc we know he’s getting all the care and love! Highly recommend:)”

“Our Dixie had a wonderful stay with Shania and her family. We were sent pictures and updates during Dixie’s stay. She was well taken care of and we will definitely be planning another stay with Shania.”

“I’m so glad I found Shanae, I was at ease while I was away. I loved the pics and videos she sent daily. I felt like my Frankie preferred being in a home environment where he can get 1:1 attention versus a boarding facility with dozens of other dogs.”

“Emily was amazing with my cat Juno! She was flexible with scheduling and helped me get Juno into her kennel (easier said than done). Emily also made sure Juno was well fed and gave me an update on how she did during her stay. As a new cat dad, I really appreciated how friendly Emily was!”


“Jackie was awesome!! This is the second time we left our babies with her. The babies were taken care of very well and enjoyed themselves while in her care. Jackie kept us up to date on how the babies were doing and sent several pictures that put us at ease and let us enjoy ourselves knowing that they were having a good time. Would definitely highly recommend Jackie, and we will definitely hire her again.”

“Monica and her family were fantastic! Their backyard is amazing! Our dog loved playing with their dogs and was fascinated with their other pets. Monica was great about sending updates and pictures throughout the week. Our dog couldn’t have been happier. We would definitely leave our dog with Monica and her family if we are in the Hampton Roads area again.”

“Scott and Lyra took excellent care of our pup over Labor Day weekend. This was our pup’s second visit with them and he will spend another long weekend with them in a few weeks. They send pictures and updates, which we very much appreciate. We couldn’t recommend Scott and Lyra more! I was very hesitant to use Rover, but I’m so glad I did and will continue to book with Scott and Lyra. They will exceed your expectations.”

“This was my first time using Rover and I am very pleased. A'Lauren was so informative while I was away. I will definitely use her again!!! This left my mind at ease!!!”

“Cheyenne was very professional, very sweet to my jellybean our fur baby cat. I got daily updates, and daily photos! I would highly recommend Cheyenne and her family took care for your pet.

About: I am Fear Free Certified and I have been socializing feral and fearful cats since 2021 when I assisted in TNR for a colony of cats in my area. I especially enjoy working with feral, semi-feral, or shy kitties.
“Micaela did a great job taking care of our “ boys”. We have two cats, and I am sure they appreciated everything that Micaela did for them. She cleaned up after them and fed them. Provided water and playtime and attention. We highly recommend Micaela if you want your babies well cared for when you go away.”

“Our two kitties seemed very happy and healthy while we were gone! Especially my anxious cat, who is always weary of pet sitters and doesn’t warm up very well! We will definitely be booking again!”

About: I have had a love for animals my whole life! Throughout my summers in high school I volunteered at GMHS as a way to give my time back to the community. I now have a 3 year old Jack Russell/Beagle mix named Nova, and we do everything together. I also have 2 cats Jake & Bailey, and a Leopard Gecko named Leia. I do work full time M-F, however I dedicate my weekends to spending time taking Nova on longer walks and having extended play time, and she loves having guest! I will treat your pets as if they were my own. I usually take Nova out to parks often, and out for play time in our back yard. She is very welcoming to guest and loves having someone to play with. If you are comfortable Nova and I would love to have guest join our walks and play times!

About: I am a 25 year old student studying marine ecology. I consider myself more of a puppy-person than a people-person. I have two dogs of my own, both of which are sort of seniors. I am a very patient person when it comes to animals, and I have been caring for a variety of animals since I was young (they used to call my house The Zoo House) I am a full time student but with plenty of time in the evening to care for pets, and taking breaks from the books to walk or run with your dog, bring it to the park, or play with your dog so that your dog goes home tired and happy would be a perfect way to stretch my legs between study sessions. Although I do not have a yard, I am able to make frequent and lengthy walks.
About: I am an animal lover & have taken care of dogs, cats, fish, lizards, birds, bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters, pigs, goats, cows, & horses. I have had the honor & privilege of having several 4 legged family members to love & care for in my lifetime but currently do not have any of my own so I would be grateful for the opportunity to love and care for your animals when you are away. I work full-time sometimes from home so I will do my best to accommodate my clients & fur-babies schedules & needs if possible for the days requested. I am interested in walking dogs for clients, follow agreed-upon routes, schedules & dispose of waste. I will pay attention to details and be sure they have food and water and dispose of their waste. I will gladly provide companionship & care in your absence. I am a responsible & reliable individual that you can trust for taking care of your fur-babies & even to the veterinarian in the event of an emergency. I am a non-smoker, non-vaper, non-drinker & non-drug user.
About: I’ve taken care of 4 dogs over the past couple decades. My current dog, Pumpkin Pie, I spoil and give her lots of attention and walks. She goes with me everywhere- from the park to the grocery store! I’m currently working full time, but I want to switch to a field I know I’ve always loved. I’m accepting weekends for now and hoping to work around my current schedule during the weekdays. When I’m house sitting, I make sure that I have all the information I need about the doggo. I make sure to greet and talk to them throughout my stay and make sure they’re comfortable and well fed.
About: Lifetime dog owner, very active. I love long walks on the beach. And so do my dogs! I currently have a 5 year old Lab/Great Dane mix and 3 year old Aussie mix. We walk and play daily. I am willing to travel for daily walks or overnight stays. All size dogs are welcome. Large dogs are no problem. I’ve got a great arm so I’m the perfect fetch partner. I update my availability weekly. Willing to send updates and pictures as requested! I have a seasonal job so when my calendar is open I’m available throughout the week and weekend. Early mornings or late nights don’t bother me! I try to view your pet as my own. I’m more than happy to double check instructions and preferences to make sure your pet is treated well!

“This family takes great care of our pup. When I pulled into the drive and Rosy recognized where we were, she was super excited! They love her and Rosy loves them right back!”

“Very pleased with our experience. We were able to schedule last minute, given flexible drop off / pick up times, and frequent updates on how everything was going. She was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend and will use again.”

“Cheyanne was very kind and considerate. She took the time to answer questions I had and she did a wonderful job with our baby. I would absolutely recommend her and we will contact her if we're in the area again.”

“Elisabeth was awesome! Ivy enjoyed her time spending the day here, and Elisabeth sent lots of updates, to include photos. Would definitely recommend her to care for your pup as well!”

“My pups loved their visit with Shawna. She sent lots of pics so we could see how they spent the day, which was much appreciated. We will definitely bring the dogs to her again!”

“Sarah did a fabulous job with Reno. He had fun, and she clearly loves having animals around so he felt welcome. She made me feel completely at ease leaving my precious pup for the day!”

“Christene took great care of Louie! She let him have a few minutes to sniff around and get his bearings before meeting Buster Moon, which was great. I also got some cute pictures of Louie having a great time while he was there, which put my mind at ease. He came home happy and tired! I would definitely leave Louie with her again!”

“We had a great experience with Qasheedra. From the moment we met, she and her family were warm, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. She took the time to understand my dogs’ needs and routine, which really put me at ease. My dog came back happy, relaxed, and well cared for — I couldn’t ask for more. I’ll definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!”

“Victor and Abigail were awesome and took extra steps to make sure our anxious pup had a great time. They sent us videos and pictures every day, which we really appreciated. After his first day in daycare, my dog was very excited to return on the following days. He seemed to really like the folks who took care of him and was nice and tired once I picked him up. Staying with these folks was definitely a mini vacation for my dog!”

“I could rave about how absolutely amazing Samantha was with my Khaleesi for hours, but I’ll keep it short for reading purposes. My dog Khaleesi is a high anxiety dog and does not do well with strangers and typically hides from them. Samantha had her during the day for 3 days, and from day 1 Khaleesi took right to her. It did take some warming up time, but Samantha kept me very updated and sent pictures throughout the day. By the end of the 3 days, Khaleesi was walking into Samantha’s house without hesitation and didn’t even turn around to look at me. Samantha is incredible and I highly recommend her!!!!”

“We’ve had a wonderful experience with Jared! He is always very flexible with scheduling, which I truly appreciate, and he consistently sends photos throughout the day that give me peace of mind. Bella absolutely loves going there—especially the trips to the park to play and burn off energy. She also adores children, so she gets extra excited on days when she can spend time with his daughter. It’s clear she feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend Jared to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

About: Every dog deserves 2 walks a day and ample room to run & play! I’ve also completed basic training classes. I dog sit for multiple friends & family members. Let me know your dogs needs! I am home in the summer. I walk my dog before and after the heat of the day. My schedule is very flexible, just let me know your dog’s needs! I have a fenced in yard. My laundry room has a dog door. My mini Aussie loves to play in our half acre yard with others!

About: Hi! I’m Andrea, and I’ve been caring for dogs for over 15 years, starting when I was 11 years old. My experience started with my aunt’s two Shih Tzus, whom I helped care for from puppyhood until they passed away from old age. Since then, dogs have always been a big part of my life. I currently have three dogs back in my home country and a mini Labradoodle named Ember here in the US. Over the years, I’ve cared for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, including giving oral medications and supporting daily routines. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, bathing, brushing, and basic training. I enjoy teaching simple commands because it helps build trust and confidence between dogs and their environment. I treat every dog with patients, care, and respect as part of my own family. I have a flexible daily routine that allows me to be present and attentive to pets throughout the day. I am able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, and supervised playtime based on each dog’s needs. I am generally home for most of the day, and my schedule allows me to check on pets frequently and maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I provide care in a clean, calm, and pet-friendly apartment designed to help dogs feel safe and comfortable. I only accept one client or one family at a time to ensure a low-stress environment and close supervision. All pets are introduced slowly and carefully, and interactions with my dog Ember are always supervised. If needed, pets can be separated to ensure they feel comfortable and secure at all times. Because my home has carpeted flooring, I only accept dogs that are reliably house-trained. This helps maintain a clean and comfortable space for all pets in my care. The environment in structured to allow dogs to rest, relax, and adjust comfortably while still having a safe and supervised space throughout their stay.

“I highly recommend Noelle. Our fur baby Max loves her. We have had no concerns leaving him with her for daycare and for an overnight. Max thinks he is apart of her family 😊”

“Brandy is an excellent dog sitter!!! I’m so grateful to have found her. She was quick to respond and immediately made me feel at ease. Milo went to her home for daycare and he did not want to leave! She played with him, took walks with him, and even did some obedience training. Milo came home tired and happy. She also sent photos and videos which always puts me at ease. I would highly recommend!”

“OMG, after meeting Alberto and his mother my heart smiled! I am a NEW pet parent and i LOVE my fur baby! They treated her as of she was their fur baby!! Alberto is so aweet, gentle, kind and patient. He sent me photos and a video throughout the day! I WILL be using him again!!!”

I am always happy to be flexible with my schedule. I live in an apartment so my dog gets plenty of walks, outdoor time, mental, and physical stimulation throughout the day. I provide a calming, safe environment in my home for my pup, and I bring that same calm and caring energy to every animal I meet.
About: As a passionate animal advocate, I've had the privilege of serving as the Foster Care Coordinator at the Gloucester-Mathews Humane Society for 1 year, while also volunteering with shelters throughout my adult life. Additionally, I'm a Certified Veterinarian Assistant, and my life's journey has been enriched by sharing it with diverse animals, from beloved domestic pets like dogs and cats, to hospice and senior animals. I'm committed to providing your cherished pets with the same love, care, and compassion that I've devoted to my own. I am thrilled to be available Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm. If you have a special request for different hours, I invite you to share your needs and I will eagerly discuss and arrange a solution that works for you. I will nurture your fur babies with the same love and devotion I would shower upon my own precious little ones. With my extensive shelter experience, I have been blessed to work with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, temperaments and life stages. I have had the joy of caring for rambunctious puppies and the privilege of providing comfort to senior dogs and cats.
About: I have been dog sitting and dog walking since I was the age of 12 and I have owned dogs and been around dogs since birth. I absolutely love going on dog walks and playing with dogs in my backyard. I believe that dogs are family and should be treated exactly like you would your little baby or child. I used to charge $5 to walk over to my neighbors house and either stay there with him overnight or just give him 3 long walks during the day while they were at work. I also have owned dogs ranging from Yorkies and dachshund size to german Shepard’s and mastiffs. I have had close contact with shelter dogs and puppies that we now own. I absolutely love dogs and pride myself on the excellent care I give them I currently am in the military but work days and my wife works nights so someone is almost always at home to give them walks meals and plenty of love I have a fenced in yard as well as hiking trails just a mile up from my house I love going to with my two pups.

About: i've taken care of dogs since I was 11 and I've had a cat for almost ten years now. I love spending time with all breeds! I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with, take care of, and love on your fur babies. I'll take care of your animals whichever way you see fit. I have a fenced in back yard and will crate them if you see fit.
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life, starting with the many pets I grew up with. Over the years, I’ve gained experience house sitting and pet sitting for families and friends, ensuring their pets were happy and well cared for. While I still currently house sit for those with pets, I also work on a farm, where I handle a wide range of animals daily, further strengthening my skills and dedication to animal care! I’m a college student with a part-time job, and I excel at multitasking. Spending time with animals is not only enjoyable for me but also a great way to unwind. I’m available for regular walks, house sitting, and multiple daily check-ins, as well as overnight stays. With my short work shifts and a flexible class schedule, I can easily accommodate your pet care needs. Pets' safety is always my top priority when pet sitting. Ensuring a pet’s safety in their own home requires attentiveness and preparation. I carefully follow owner’s instructions, supervise the pet closely, and make sure the environment is free of hazards. I keep emergency contacts on hand, monitor the pet for signs of stress, and am prepared to act quickly if needed. I've also worked with many anxious pets in the past so I understand that they may need a little more care and closeness. With a focus on security and comfort, I provide consistent care while keeping owners updated for peace of mind.

If your little one needs a slow and steady approach, I’ll always match their speed. If your dog has high energy and a high prey drive, they’ll be tuckered out and happy by the time I leave.

“Scott and Lyra took excellent care of our pup over Labor Day weekend. This was our pup’s second visit with them and he will spend another long weekend with them in a few weeks. They send pictures and updates, which we very much appreciate. We couldn’t recommend Scott and Lyra more! I was very hesitant to use Rover, but I’m so glad I did and will continue to book with Scott and Lyra. They will exceed your expectations.”

“Cheyenne was very professional, very sweet to my jellybean our fur baby cat. I got daily updates, and daily photos! I would highly recommend Cheyenne and her family took care for your pet. We had place our home on the market and for showing thought it was best for Jelly Bean not to be home during the showings! Jelly Bean was well cared for ! Thank you, Cheyenne”

“Lora was great with our young dog! She was so kind and sent daily updates about their time together. This was my first time using a sitter who was not family with a pet. She gave me complete peace of mind with her knowledge and experience.”

“My baby was so loved and happy with Elisabeth and her lovely family that he was upset when I had to take him home! There was good communication and pics. It was obvious from the beginning that this is an excellent place to leave your babies. So glad I found this family!!”

“2nd time booking with Teona and Louelyn. I didn’t worry at all about our precious basset hound while we were away visiting family. These two love animals and will treat your dog like their own. They have a very clean home!”
