“Deb and Ralph do an excellent job. This is our boys second stay with them. He’s a high energy lab. They make him feel right at home and gives us peace of mind being away from him. They communicate with us as needed and are quick to reply to texts. I’d recommend them for your dog watching needs.”
“Sophia did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Louie, while I was away on a trip. She made sure Louie was well taken care of and I could tell that he was very comfortable staying with her. She shared many updates and pictures which I appreciated very much. If you’re looking someone to entrust your best friend with Sophia is great!”
“Kathryn was fabulous! She was attentive to our pup, sent lots of pics of a very happy pooch and was quick responding to my texts! We will definitely be booking with her again!🤗”
“We have used Jocelyn several times to take care of our dog while we're on vacation. She's always done a fantastic job, and we will continue to use her as long as she's providing service.”
“Joe was so easy to communicate with! We really appreciated his patience in dealing with our elderly doggie who was having anxiety from staying with someone new. Thank you Joe!!”
“I needed to find someone to watch my two golden retrievers on short notice, which was stressful. Angel was quick to respond to set up a meet and greet, and I immediately felt relieved I found someone I felt I could trust. Angel sent me lots of photos and was quick to respond with updates while I was out of town. Pick up and drop off went smoothly as well. I have zero complaints and will be reaching out to her again the next time I need my dogs boarded. Highly recommend.”
“Casey and her family were amazing! The dogs really seemed to enjoy playing with them. They have a nice yard for them to run and play. They seemed very happy there, which makes us happy. They took them in as part of their family, while we had to be away. That was such a relief for us. Thanks Casey and kids! God Bless you! K & D+”
“Amy was so great with our girls!!! This was our first time leaving them for vacation and using Rover. My girls were so comfortable and loved every minute of their own vacation!!! Highly recommend!!”
“Dana was amazing and took such good care of Bentley while we were on vacation! She communicated daily and sent us adorable pictures that let us know he was living his best life while we were away. He was very happy and content when he came home. I would 100% recommend her and would use her again the next time we go away.”
“Tiffanie is amazing, and cared for my dogs as if they were her own, she went above and beyond assuring they had a fulfilled wonderful day. I'm looking g forward to Tiffanie taking care of my dogs in the future!”
“We cannot say enough about the loving and caring environment created for our 🐶. She is 5 and had never stayed with anyone other than family and somehow Jani & Paul made it seem like our Lucy was with family. We cannot recommend them enough!”
“Eman took great care of my energetic pup. He had a great time on the farm. I had a last minute booking request and I so appreciate her taking care of him. Definitely recommend!”
“Cory saved the day by taking Gizmo in ! He was caring, attentive and went beyond the call of duty to wear Gizmo out and relax in their beautiful home in Crozet. The mountain property is Lovely and close enough to town . So grateful to Cory for helping me out last minute and with great care and generosity go Gizmo’s never ending desire to play and play some more . Kudos to Cory and his family for making Gizmo one of their family .”
“Montana was great! This was my pups first time away from the family and she did amazing. Our dog requires medication with each feeding, and Montana kept her on track. For her time being away, I was amazed at how at ease she was when I picked her up. No doubt this was due to all the love and comfort she received. Montana provided updates and sent photos which put my mind at ease. Drop off and pick up were smooth and easy. Will definitely use again!”
“Ruby was excited and enjoyed staying with Madison. She did not appear to be at all anxious when we dropped her off, or when we picked her up. Often Ruby is initially uncomfortable and worried during her first stay, but that was not the case. We will definitely schedule her stay with Madison in the future!”
“Alexandra and Logan were wonderful with my (sometimes overly) curious terrier, Eddie! I am always concerned about Eddie escaping to chase an animal, and they took my concerns seriously and took steps to ensure that wouldn't happen. Their fence setup was great too - the fenced-in yard wraps all the way around the house, so even if a dog slipped out of the house, they would still be in the yard. On top of that, they sent lots of pictures and were so kind to Eddie. He didn't want to leave!”
“Our experience with Ashley was awesome! She was very responsive and on top of our booking. Ashley sent us a photo & note to keep us updated. We came back to a very happy pup, who was clearly delighted with her boarding experience. We would not hesitate to book with Ashley again.”

“Sylvia was willing to come meet and greet my cats when I had a last minute change and needed a sitter, and she was wonderful for the weekend I needed her! My two cats have different personalities, and she understood and kept me informed during her visits. I would definitely recommend Sylvia for your drop-in cat needs.”
“Frankie was incredible and did a phenomenal job at watching my cat Kloud. She responded incredibly quick to all of my questions and gave Kloud the attention she needed while I traveling to ensure she didn't lack for socialization. She also so sweetly left Kloud a Christmas gift. I couldn't have asked for more from her and highly recommend her as a petsitter.”
“She was amazing. Tiggy loved her and she took such good care of her. And she took care of me by sending pictures and an update with each message!! Thank you so much.❣️❣️❣️”
“I was worried about my cat since her brother had recently passed and I had to leave for a week. Tyler spent time with her to make sure she wasn't too lonely. It was very nice to not have to worry about her while I was away! Most cat sitters do not stay for the 30 min, but Tyler made sure she was well taken care of. :)”

About: I’ve taken care of animals starting with my neighbor who relied on me for care taking, to my aunt who has her own dog business! I also have furbabies of my own which I care for; two dogs and one cat. As of right now usually am free after 6. Moving forward my schedule should be more open. Just shoot a text and see if we can figure something out 😊 In my home my dogs are leashed and we go for walks around the neighborhood. My cat stays indoors, but we enjoy playing and cuddling— she’s old. My doggies and I get out of the house sometimes and love to go on rides to the park
“Zoe was one of the best cat sitters we have ever hired using Rover! She sent us a ton of pictures and kept us updated on their status which made us feel so much better while we were gone. We came home to happy and healthy kitties! You won't regret hiring her and we would book with her again in a heartbeat.”
About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of animals. Animals are one of the most important things in my life and I know how important they are to their families.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Spottswood
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: Lifelong dog owner with decades of experience caring for dogs both big and small. I work from home and am able to provide maximum companionship and plenty of exercise. Boarders or daycare get 2-3 walks/day, dozens of photos, and lots of love of course! I provide toys, bowls, a dog bed, treats, poop bags and a backup leash. A tired dog is a good dog :) feel free to bring your pet’s crate if you’d like! I grew up with border collies and labs, then rescued my own dogs in adulthood. One of my rescues was a very sick 3-month old puppy that I raised, so I am well-versed with puppy care. I do not currently have pets living in the home, so your dogs will have the run of the place! I own my own home on a quiet circle street. My yard is an expansive quarter acre of grass with access to miles of mowed walking paths off my backyard. When a visit starts, I like to take the dogs on a “Welcome Walk” to get acquainted in neutral outdoor space. I prioritize safety and clear communication (with owners and dogs!) to create a comfortable experience for all. I look forward to taking care of your wonderful pets! I work from home, so I am flexible for drop-ins, last-minute needs, or regular walks, and can give your dog consistent companionship…and some fun of course! Rain or shine, I am happy to take them out. I provide a treats (if allowed), a dog bed, bowls, toys and backup leash (but I prefer you bring the leash your dog is familiar with!). Please feel free to bring a crate if you’d like to crate your dog! When a visit starts, I like to take the dogs on “Welcome Walk” where we get acquainted in the great outdoors. This allows me to build our bond in neutral space with plenty of positive stimulation for the dogs. I prioritize safety and clear communication (with owners and dogs!) to create a comfortable experience for all. I have used the clicker training method in the past, and do not believe in any form of domineering or physical correction. Your dog will have a stable experience here!
“Nicole and her family were warm and welcoming throughout the entire process. Great communications! My Nikko thoroughly enjoyed her stay with them. Super attentive to all her needs. You can tell from the first minute that she not only understands animal caretaking, but she also has great compassion for them. Would highly recommend her service!”
About: I have had animals my whole life! I’m always happy to help friends and family. Life is better with fur babies! Happy to help. I am not working so I am available anytime. I can do drop ins, in home care or at my home. I have two miniature dachshunds that love to play and a beautiful neighborhood for walks. We have gates on our stairs to keep our dogs on one level. I have a crate if needed in my home to keep your dog safe.
“We were so excited to have Jack with Arie and Leigh as one of our first tries with day care as they are so experienced with dogs in general but especially labs. All went very well, great communication and what a wonderful family and property for Jack to play and even had a furry friend! Will plan to use them again and very much recommend.”
About: I have been a dog and cat owner/lover/advocate my whole life. I miss having my own pets so much so I pet sit during our travels and while we are home too! I’m a massage therapist and energy worker so animals LOVE my touch and calming presence. I’m very active and love long walks. I’m totally comfortable with large dogs. I have retired early so my schedule is very flexible. I am happy to travel to pet sits. I tend to do pet sitting in Florida during the months of January and February. I love having dogs and cats in my home. There is a little river behind my house and the national forest and Sherando Lake Recreation Area is just beyond the river so there’s lots of space for long walks. Pets will get lots of loving care, tons of cuddles, and undivided attention while under my care and I will walk for as long and far as your dog (or cat) wants to.
“Madison is great. I would not hesitate to leave my pet in her care again. My Jaxson can be very nervous without his pet parents but she handled him like a pro and he did seem to enjoy his time with her.”
“Margaret was the perfect sitter for our little dog, Hattie. From the moment that we arrived to drop off Hattie, Margaret met us with a warm smile and put us right at ease that Hattie will be well taken care of. Margaret updated us with pictures over the afternoon, and when we came to pick up, Hattie was was in a great, happy mood. We have no complaints with the experience, and would gladly leave Hattie with Margaret again.”
“Amy was wonderful with my Mads. She provided her with plenty of exercise and cuddling. She sent me lots of photos and videos which was wonderful to have. Very much recommend.”

“Deb and Ralph do an excellent job. This is our boys second stay with them. He’s a high energy lab. They make him feel right at home and gives us peace of mind being away from him. They communicate with us as needed and are quick to reply to texts. I’d recommend them for your dog watching needs.”

“Joe was so easy to communicate with! We really appreciated his patience in dealing with our elderly doggie who was having anxiety from staying with someone new. Thank you Joe!!”
“I needed to find someone to watch my two golden retrievers on short notice, which was stressful. Angel was quick to respond to set up a meet and greet, and I immediately felt relieved I found someone I felt I could trust. Angel sent me lots of photos and was quick to respond with updates while I was out of town. Pick up and drop off went smoothly as well. I have zero complaints and will be reaching out to her again the next time I need my dogs boarded. Highly recommend.”
“Casey and her family were amazing! The dogs really seemed to enjoy playing with them. They have a nice yard for them to run and play. They seemed very happy there, which makes us happy. They took them in as part of their family, while we had to be away. That was such a relief for us. Thanks Casey and kids! God Bless you! K & D+”
“Amy was so great with our girls!!! This was our first time leaving them for vacation and using Rover. My girls were so comfortable and loved every minute of their own vacation!!! Highly recommend!!”
“Dana was amazing and took such good care of Bentley while we were on vacation! She communicated daily and sent us adorable pictures that let us know he was living his best life while we were away. He was very happy and content when he came home. I would 100% recommend her and would use her again the next time we go away.”
“Tiffanie is amazing, and cared for my dogs as if they were her own, she went above and beyond assuring they had a fulfilled wonderful day. I'm looking g forward to Tiffanie taking care of my dogs in the future!”
“Eman took great care of my energetic pup. He had a great time on the farm. I had a last minute booking request and I so appreciate her taking care of him. Definitely recommend!”
“Cory saved the day by taking Gizmo in ! He was caring, attentive and went beyond the call of duty to wear Gizmo out and relax in their beautiful home in Crozet. The mountain property is Lovely and close enough to town . So grateful to Cory for helping me out last minute and with great care and generosity go Gizmo’s never ending desire to play and play some more . Kudos to Cory and his family for making Gizmo one of their family .”
“Montana was great! This was my pups first time away from the family and she did amazing. Our dog requires medication with each feeding, and Montana kept her on track. For her time being away, I was amazed at how at ease she was when I picked her up. No doubt this was due to all the love and comfort she received. Montana provided updates and sent photos which put my mind at ease. Drop off and pick up were smooth and easy. Will definitely use again!”
“Ruby was excited and enjoyed staying with Madison. She did not appear to be at all anxious when we dropped her off, or when we picked her up. Often Ruby is initially uncomfortable and worried during her first stay, but that was not the case. We will definitely schedule her stay with Madison in the future!”
“Alexandra and Logan were wonderful with my (sometimes overly) curious terrier, Eddie! I am always concerned about Eddie escaping to chase an animal, and they took my concerns seriously and took steps to ensure that wouldn't happen. Their fence setup was great too - the fenced-in yard wraps all the way around the house, so even if a dog slipped out of the house, they would still be in the yard. On top of that, they sent lots of pictures and were so kind to Eddie. He didn't want to leave!”
“Rylee was welcomed and taken great care of. Leaving her with others is a big deal for us, Arie, Leigh and the kids took great care of her. They sent us pics and updates over the weekend, we felt very safe with her there.”
About: I love all animals! I don’t have any because of my housing rules so I want to take care of your fur babies to get my animal fix! I am extremely flexible and caring. I take instructions well and am a fast learner. I am very observant, I will care for your home and pet like it was my own. I am also skilled in American Sign Language, as I am hard of hearing, and can teach your pet to respond to signs. I am also quick to respond with text in case of emergencies. I especially love puppies and kittens and am willing to clean up any messes. I am flexible on long term stay rates if you go on several day vacations. Thank you!
“Heather was amazing! She was so warm and friendly and communicative. Sent great pics and even made a special treat for my dog (got my permission first). My sweet pup had a great time with her and her family. We will definitely stay with her again!”
