I can officially say King has a home away from home. I received pictures and updates while I went away for the weekend. Vania and Janiya took care of my precious cargo as if he was theirs. I’ll definitely book again. ??

This was our first time leaving our little Golden doodle with Samantha. I will say, I was a bit intimidated by leaving him with a pit bull there, but upon meeting the pit bull he was the sweetest big dog ever. My worries immediately vanished! There were a couple other dogs there, so that was nice. There was one dog a bit too interested in my little guy, so I didn’t want to leave until he calmed down. Samantha never made me feel rushed to leave or weird. She was super patient and asking me if I wanted the dogs split up, or inside or outside. I really thought that said a lot about the person I was leaving our baby with and I really liked that. I say all that to say, you can’t always control how dogs will interact with each other, but you can control how you react to them and Samantha was very calm, kind and friendly. She never looked overwhelmed or nervous. She was a bit embarrassed I think because of the initial behavior of this other dog she was caring for, but I understood that wasn’t a reflection of her care. We left out little guy there 3 days and she communicated through the day with updates, sent photos and even went the extra step of boiling and egg to mix it with my dogs food since we do that for him at home too. I’m thankful we found someone to watch our guy for when we need it! Highly recommend! 10 out of 10!

Wow!! We are so happy we found Lisa to take care of our lil chonk on our weeklong trip. This is the first time we left Pig with someone who wasn’t a close friend, so we were a little nervous until the meet and greet. At that point I knew that Lisa was someone we could trust. She and her family embraced Pig, and took care of her as if she was one of their own. Pig was socialized with other dogs (a huge bonus for us), and definitely enjoyed herself. She ate regularly which is an incredible feat, as she usually will not eat the first day or so after we’ve left. We will 100% be asking Lisa to watch Pig for any future needs. Lisa is a professional. As a dog lover, it’s easy to see the genuine love she has for all dogs that are entrusted to her care. Highly recommend. Thank you Lisa!

Jane and her family were able to take my request during a last minute change of plans on my part, and made to make Rogue feel at home as soon as she walked in the door. We were all sad when Rogue had to finally leave but they took such good care of her during her stay and I'll definitely be contacting them again if I ever need a sitter 💙

I had an amazing experience with Beverly ! She took care of my dog for a full week and went above and beyond in every way. Not only did she keep me updated regularly with pictures , but my dog was clearly happy and well-cared for the entire time. On the 6th day, she even gave him a bath. It’s such a relief to know your pet is in good hands, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!

About: I grew up with cats as a child and have rescued 3 within the last 5 years. One has unfortunately passed due to a heart condition. My other two came with some challenges that I worked with them on and they are now thriving. My one cat, we adopted as a kitten and was looked over by many people because she can be feisty. She’s since become the sweetest girl. My other cat i rescued as an adult at roughly 3 years old and he was extremely scared of people and noises. Since being in our home, he is cuddly, social, and so sweet.

Our trip was that much more enjoyable knowing that Linden was doing the things we normally do, from litter box management to giving medication to providing the human touch!

About: I took a break from pet sitting for awhile due to moving, but I am back and available on weekends! I have loved and cared for dogs since I was a kid. Back in my home state I ran a doggy-day care and began grooming and shadowing at dog shows. I have mainly had Australian Shepherds, but have also had German Shepherds, Pitbulls, Poodles, Beagles, and Labs. I love dogs, honestly, more than people most days. In the past I have trained dogs and competed in dog agility trials. I currently have three dogs, an Australian Shepherd, who is my heart and soul, a German Shepherd Husky who is the sweetest girl, and a Rough Collie who lives up to his name, Taz. I can handle any size dog, any temperament, and ensure they get the care and attention they deserve. Dogs are such amazing animals that can help us overcome even our worst days, I want to make sure your dog is taken care of while you're away so you have less to worry about at the end of the day. I work full time, so I am only available on weekends at this time. My weekends are flexible to accommodate travel schedules, drop-in visits, and walks. I follow your instructions on how you want your dog taken care of. Thats your baby, and I am here to love them as you do.

I'm perfect for someone who needs a quick, cheap, consistent service. Currently available to walk or drop-in with pets from 2-5pm on Wednesdays only. I am a very good listener and a gentle handler. I instill some consistent walk etiquette but I am not a dog trainer! I am here to keep me and your pet walking and safe. I have a fenced in backyard and several parks nearby. My neighborhood is walkable. Your pet will never be far from water, food, space or comfort.

Kelsie did an excellent job while I was out of town for a week. My kitties experienced a bit more separation anxiety than usual, and ended up making a huge mess of the front room. Kelsie informed me of it immediately and was super understanding of it. Since I wasn’t around my phone during that visit and couldn’t tell her where the cleaning sprays were, she waited till I was able to tell her where the items were. Then came back the next day to further clean up the floors! One of my kitties is very weary of new people and she did great with making sure not to stress her out too much.

About: I have had cats since I was about 6 years old and caring for them has always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I have cared for cats with many different personalities, temperaments, and care needs. I have experience with kittens all the way to senior cats, including indoor cats, outdoor cats, and cats that are both indoor and outdoor. I understand that every cat is different. Some are playful and social while others need extra patience and a calm environment to feel comfortable. I am experienced with feeding routines, litter box cleaning, playtime, giving lots of attention, and making sure cats feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. As a cat owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I will always treat your cats like my own and provide reliable, attentive, and loving care.

About: I’ve taken care of my dog and my aunt’s dog since I was nine. I’m twenty now and both of my fur babies are still kicking, barking, and happy. I’ve always loved animals, even helping to rescue some when I was little such as these two baby ducks and other little birdies and frogs too. In school, my teacher had a pet chameleon and turtle and I always was excited to help feed them. I actually started majoring in Biology at first in college to be a veterinarian or zoologist. I have a different path now to help children but I still have a passion for pets and other beautiful creatures of this Earth. I will take care of your fur babies just like I did mine and love them just as much. I am a college student as mentioned before so my current schedule is MWF and Tues and Thurs to be free after 11:15 am. However, I do live on campus in Norfolk at ODU so I can take business there as well but mainly for dog walking and pet sitting at your residence. I do rely on my mother, brother or friends for transportation but they are willing to help snd be available as needed. Please give me a chance and you won’t regret it. :) I make sure the pets first get to know me, smell me, and recognize me to be comfortable with me. Then, I interact with them more by playing with them and giving them rubs and cuddles so they can feel more connected and comfortable. Then, definitely make sure they eat and drink the right food for their health and nourishment. Then, walk them so they can do their business and get exercise and always make sure they have a leash on. Next, make sure they are groomed and cleaned well and freshen up from the outdoors. Then spend more time with them until our fun is over and they are returned with their beloved owners. I will have a whole day well planned and you and your fur babies will appreciate it. :)

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for animals is something I truly enjoy. I've spent years working with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I currently have a dog of my own, Wesson, and I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pet. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, or relaxing at home, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you're away. I'm comfortable caring for all breeds and temperaments, from energetic working dogs to laid-back couch companions. I also have experience with dogs that use training tools such as e-collars and prong collars and can follow your dog's established training routine and preferences. When your dog is in my care, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I'll treat them like one of my own and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I enjoy incorporating walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding schedules, and one-on-one attention into our day. Because I'm home most of the time, pets are rarely left alone for extended periods, and I can easily accommodate their individual needs and routines. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and structured environment. I have a securely fenced yard for supervised outdoor play and exercise, as well as a multi-level home that allows me to separate pets when needed. If a dog is crate-trained or requires their own space, I can accommodate that and ensure they have a quiet area to relax. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications, and any training routines provided by the owner. My goal is to make pets feel at home while providing plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their established routine and environment. I make sure pets receive consistent care, companionship, exercise, fresh water, meals, and any special accommodations they need. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for while they're away.

About: Whether you need daily walks, playtime, or overnight care, I provide safe, loving, and dependable care for your pets. I treat every dog like my own—making sure they get the exercise, attention, and affection they deserve. Flexible scheduling, affordable rates, and trusted experience give you peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾 Walks tailored to your dog’s energy level 🐾 Drop-ins for feeding, play, and potty breaks 🐾 Overnight sitting in the comfort of their own home 🐾 Reliable, trustworthy, and pet-loving care Let’s make sure your pup stays happy, healthy, and loved—while you focus on your day with confidence. My girlfriend and I walk the dogs at least 3 times a day with a visit to the dog park in the evening. There is 3 other dogs that always meet us at the dog park at the same time as well that live in the same housing territory as us which helps them all socialize and play together. All 3 dogs get fed 3 times a day as well so your dog will not go hungry if it needs fed multiple times a day. I am currently not working so the dogs will be my priority! No worries at all as the dogs will always be coming first in this household. I have a small fenced in yard for the dogs to go out. We also have a friendly dog park right out back of the house as well in which we take the dogs to frequently and know most of the dogs that go to the park as well. We have 3 stories so the dogs will get plenty of exercise going up and down the stairs as well.

About: Ive always been an animal lover from such a early age. I got my first dog when I was 10 years old and it was the most memorable day. Whenever I see animals strolling down the street I just have to stop and give them some love. I would really enjoy helping out with giving your animals love and attention while their mom and dad are away. Currently I am a single full time working mother to a fun and loving 5 year old. I have free time a couple days during the week and also on weekends. If I can make it work in my schedule I most def will! I prefer to bring the animals to my home and dog sit, but I am flexible. I like to think animals have feelings too. They deserve to be treated as part of the family and if Im responsible for the care of someones animal I feel as if Im responsible for someones loved one and treat the animals how I would want mine to be treated with respect and appreciation for the wonderful loyal creatures that they are.

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated pet lover with hands-on experience working at a professional boarding facility for a year, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. That experience taught me how to handle everything from high-energy pups to more anxious or shy dogs, always with patience and care. I also have two dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m available any time, any day, and offer a wide range of services including walks, drop-ins, and boarding. I’m very reliable and always keep owners updated with messages and photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. Whether your pet needs playtime, structure, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to help! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine since I’m available full-time and have a very flexible schedule. I plan my days around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they get consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. Since I’m available any time, I can accommodate early mornings, late evenings, and last-minute bookings. Your pet will never be left alone for long periods, and I make sure they’re always a priority in my schedule. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. In my home, I create a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can relax, play, and feel at home. I follow their normal feeding, walking, and sleeping schedules as closely as possible to keep things consistent and stress-free. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their pet’s routine exactly as instructed. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care like administering medication if needed. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and supervision at all times. With my experience working at a boarding facility, I’m comfortable handling different temperaments and ensuring every pet feels safe and well cared for.

About: Hi, I’m Nancy! Dogs have been part of my family and my heart for over 26 years. I currently have 3 small dogs As a devoted dog mom, I’ve cared for dogs through every stage of life—from curious 8-week-old puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra patience, love, and gentle care. I know firsthand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup enjoys an energetic walk, a leisurely sniff around the neighborhood, or just spending time with someone who truly enjoys their company, I’ll make sure they receive the same love, attention, and respect that I give my own dogs. I’m dependable, patient, and understand how important it is to know your pet is in caring hands. I’ll always prioritize your dog’s safety and happiness, and I’ll keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m joining Rover to earn some extra income doing something I genuinely love—spending time with dogs. It would be a privilege to care for your furry family member, and I look forward to meeting you both! I can’t wait to make some new four-legged friends! I’m currently unemployed, as I’ve just recently moved back to the area, which means I have a lot of availability and a flexible schedule. I’m joining Rover to earn some extra income doing something I genuinely love—spending time with dogs.

About: I took a break from pet sitting for awhile due to moving, but I am back and available on weekends! I have loved and cared for dogs since I was a kid. Back in my home state I ran a doggy-day care and began grooming and shadowing at dog shows. I have mainly had Australian Shepherds, but have also had German Shepherds, Pitbulls, Poodles, Beagles, and Labs. I love dogs, honestly, more than people most days. In the past I have trained dogs and competed in dog agility trials. I currently have three dogs, an Australian Shepherd, who is my heart and soul, a German Shepherd Husky who is the sweetest girl, and a Rough Collie who lives up to his name, Taz. I can handle any size dog, any temperament, and ensure they get the care and attention they deserve. Dogs are such amazing animals that can help us overcome even our worst days, I want to make sure your dog is taken care of while you're away so you have less to worry about at the end of the day. I work full time, so I am only available on weekends at this time. My weekends are flexible to accommodate travel schedules, drop-in visits, and walks. I follow your instructions on how you want your dog taken care of. Thats your baby, and I am here to love them as you do.

Otherwise I will walk your fur baby for a minimum of one hour and maybe even take them with me for small store runs in the area (with your permission ofc!).

About: I’ve grown up in a home that has always had animals, so pet care has never felt foreign to me—it’s just been part of daily life. At one point, my family had 10 cats at once, which taught me early on how different personalities, medical needs, and stress levels can all exist under one roof. I have experience with animals across the spectrum, from easygoing to highly complex. I’ve cared for aggressive, anxious, and picky cats, high-energy and very barky dogs, as well as pets who need extra patience, structure, or medical support. I stay calm, observant, and adaptable, especially when care isn’t straightforward. My hands-on experience includes: • 10+ years fostering kittens, including bottle babies as young as two weeks old • Caring for ill, elderly, and special-needs animals, including those with mobility challenges • Supporting pets with trauma histories, OCD or stress-related behaviors, inappropriate elimination, and extreme touch sensitivity • Administering medications confidently (pills and liquids to cats and dogs) • Moderate experience with subdermal fluids and injections for kittens and cats • Caring for pets post-surgery, coming off anesthesia, or on sedative medications • Providing daily care for animals who could not walk independently or needed frequent monitoring and cleanups I’m comfortable with situations that are emotionally or physically demanding and don’t get overwhelmed when things are messy, slow, or unpredictable. My priority is always safety, consistency, and helping pets feel as secure and understood as possible. I am a part-time nanny with a very flexible schedule. I am available to walk your dogs, check on your pets, or stay with them in your home most nights. I understand the importance of finding someone you can trust to take care of a member of your family while you are away and want to provide the best care for your pets so you can truly relax. Having had a Chow Chow mix growing up, I have experience with both intense and anxious dispositions, and I know when to take a dog’s behavior personally or not. I am an easy going, adaptable care-taker, but I will also play as much as your dog likes! I will give them such good care, your pets will look forward to your next trip!

I had them for 17 years until they left for doggy heaven October 2024 and February 2025… I am not ready to fully commit again quite yet so decided babysitting and loving on others’ furbabies will help the healing.

Will appreciate details such as age, allergies, health, likes and dislikes. Will treat your baby/babies like they are my own. Will walk them as I have a dog friendly neighborhood as well as a newly built dog park. The backyard is also fenced.

About: I grew up with pets my whole life so I would say I’m pretty experienced, I’ve love animals and now that I have way more time I can dedicate it to helping out people and pets. Everyone deserves to go on vacation or see family far away or do something out of the area and not have to worry about their fur baby accommodations so I got you I work Monday through Friday starting at 0730 and I leave usually before noon. Most of the time I leave around 1030 but it’s not a set and stone. So including drive time I would say my whole day is about 5-6 hrs I would be gone I have a small house with a small fenced in yard. I do own and not rent so no one else’s rules but mine. I don’t have really restrictions for the dog or cat in my house, they can lay on the couch or bed. If they stay overnight at my house, they can sleep with me if they prefer it or wherever they want. Although if the dog isn’t potty trained yet or is destructive I may want to have it in a crate. I am all for a case by case situations and accommodation each client to work out something. I do want to mention as a side note that I do not currently own pets but I do foster cats, so I may have to ask if you’re pets are current on vaccinations to keep them at my house

I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications, and any training routines provided by the owner. My goal is to make pets feel at home while providing plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their established routine and environment. I make sure pets receive consistent care, companionship, exercise, fresh water, meals, and any special accommodations they need. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for while they're away.

Robbyn was excellent! She was reliable and responsive. She would answer my questions at all hours of the day. She allowed my dog to go at his own pace and even picked up on his little nuances like wanting to carry his own leash. Highly recommended!

Izzy was amazing!!! She took care of Stella as if she were her own and made my first experience with Rover very easy. She was super sweet and attentive, wanted to know everything about Stella’s habits before dropping by on her and followed all instructions. She sent plenty of pictures and videos of my baby throughout ❤️❤️! Overall it was a 10/10 experience, no notes! I will definitely be using her services in the future!!!

About: I’ve worked in the a vet hospital for 3 years , then moved to working in boarding and taking care of all sizes of dogs! I’m animal cpr certified. I don’t go to work until around 9 so I will come take care of your fur babies early in the morning then come back around 1pm to let them out for a mid day potty break. Then when I get off work I will come back over and take care of your fur baby and tuck them in for the night after they play and get their energy out. I have a 1 year old black and she used a leash and harness when we are outside unless we are playing with her toys. I’m very attentive to the surroundings before I let my fur baby off the leash.

About: Hi! My name is Ashley, and I have been around animals my entire life. I have experience caring for small, medium, and large dogs with a variety of personalities and energy levels. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply having company, I am happy to provide the care and attention they need while you’re away. I am also comfortable around cats and understand that every pet has their own routine and preferences. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members, and I will treat your pets with the same care, patience, and affection that I would give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! My availability is Wednesday evening through Sunday evening each week. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting during that time and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and needs. I don’t currently have a pet in my home, but I have spent my life around dogs and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I understand how important routines are for animals, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment while they are in my care.

About: Whether you need daily walks, playtime, or overnight care, I provide safe, loving, and dependable care for your pets. I treat every dog like my own—making sure they get the exercise, attention, and affection they deserve. Flexible scheduling, affordable rates, and trusted experience give you peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾 Walks tailored to your dog’s energy level 🐾 Drop-ins for feeding, play, and potty breaks 🐾 Overnight sitting in the comfort of their own home 🐾 Reliable, trustworthy, and pet-loving care Let’s make sure your pup stays happy, healthy, and loved—while you focus on your day with confidence. My girlfriend and I walk the dogs at least 3 times a day with a visit to the dog park in the evening. There is 3 other dogs that always meet us at the dog park at the same time as well that live in the same housing territory as us which helps them all socialize and play together. All 3 dogs get fed 3 times a day as well so your dog will not go hungry if it needs fed multiple times a day. I am currently not working so the dogs will be my priority! No worries at all as the dogs will always be coming first in this household. I have a small fenced in yard for the dogs to go out. We also have a friendly dog park right out back of the house as well in which we take the dogs to frequently and know most of the dogs that go to the park as well. We have 3 stories so the dogs will get plenty of exercise going up and down the stairs as well.

About: What sets me apart is the presence and care I bring to every interaction. With 15+ years of hands-on experience across a wide range of animals—dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs—I’m not just pet sitting, I’m attuning. I notice the little things: a shift in behavior, a need for extra cuddles, or when it’s time to give space. My calm, loving energy helps animals feel safe and understood. I don’t rush through visits—I show up fully, giving your pet the same patience and warmth I give my own. As a homeschool mom with a flexible schedule and a peaceful home environment, pet sitting fits naturally into my life. I’m home most of the day, which means your pet gets consistent attention, companionship, and care—not just quick check-ins. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, and it brings joy and balance to our rhythm at home. Whether it’s daily drop-ins or extended stays, I have the time, space, and heart to give your pet the presence they deserve. Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in yours, my approach is rooted in calm, attentive, and loving presence. In my home, they’ll enjoy a relaxed, pet-friendly environment with plenty of snuggles, play, and quiet time—whatever makes them feel safe and happy. If I’m coming to you, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible, respecting their space and energy. I treat every animal like family and always follow your instructions with care and attention to detail. We have a fenced in yard, and plenty of walkable sidewalks.

This was our first time leaving our little Golden doodle with Samantha. I will say, I was a bit intimidated by leaving him with a pit bull there, but upon meeting the pit bull he was the sweetest big dog ever. My worries immediately vanished! There were a couple other dogs there, so that was nice. There was one dog a bit too interested in my little guy, so I didn’t want to leave until he calmed down. Samantha never made me feel rushed to leave or weird. She was super patient and asking me if I wanted the dogs split up, or inside or outside. I really thought that said a lot about the person I was leaving our baby with and I really liked that. I say all that to say, you can’t always control how dogs will interact with each other, but you can control how you react to them and Samantha was very calm, kind and friendly. She never looked overwhelmed or nervous. She was a bit embarrassed I think because of the initial behavior of this other dog she was caring for, but I understood that wasn’t a reflection of her care. We left out little guy there 3 days and she communicated through the day with updates, sent photos and even went the extra step of boiling and egg to mix it with my dogs food since we do that for him at home too. I’m thankful we found someone to watch our guy for when we need it! Highly recommend! 10 out of 10!

Wow!! We are so happy we found Lisa to take care of our lil chonk on our weeklong trip. This is the first time we left Pig with someone who wasn’t a close friend, so we were a little nervous until the meet and greet. At that point I knew that Lisa was someone we could trust. She and her family embraced Pig, and took care of her as if she was one of their own. Pig was socialized with other dogs (a huge bonus for us), and definitely enjoyed herself. She ate regularly which is an incredible feat, as she usually will not eat the first day or so after we’ve left. We will 100% be asking Lisa to watch Pig for any future needs. Lisa is a professional. As a dog lover, it’s easy to see the genuine love she has for all dogs that are entrusted to her care. Highly recommend. Thank you Lisa!

Jane and her family were able to take my request during a last minute change of plans on my part, and made to make Rogue feel at home as soon as she walked in the door. We were all sad when Rogue had to finally leave but they took such good care of her during her stay and I'll definitely be contacting them again if I ever need a sitter 💙
