Cristen Michael and their son were fantastic. I got so many pictures and they loved on my old girl like she was their own. They even were able to get her to eat while I was gone, which is not something that normally happens. I will definitely be using them again!

​⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly Recommended! ​We couldn’t be happier with the outstanding care Omaira and Isaac provided for our dogs while we were away for a week. ​From start to finish, Omaira and Isaac were professional, highly communicative, and incredibly attentive to our dogs' needs and daily routines. We received regular updates and photos, which completely put our minds at ease and allowed us to truly enjoy our time away. ​It’s clear that Omaira and Isaac genuinely love animals and treats them as if they were their own. We returned home to happy, relaxed, and beautifully cared-for dogs. If you are looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable pet sitter, look no further. We will absolutely be booking again!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I have spent the last 3 years volunteering with Hope for Life Rescue and Penninsula Regional Animal Shelter, working hands on with pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments, from bottle feeding kittens and puppies to caring for senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m the go-to person for family and friends whenever they need someone reliable and loving to care for their pets, whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or overnight boarding. I have experience administering medications, handling nervous or shy animals, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for like family. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, and I treat every animal as if they were my own, with patience, compassion, and plenty of love. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because animals are already a big part of my life. I volunteer regularly with a local rescue and animal shelter, foster when needed, and I also run my own business from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and boarding. I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise, and my own pets (two cats and one dog) are all friendly, well socialized, and up to date on their vaccines. My dog, Mercury, just turned two and is full of energy. She loves meeting other dogs and enjoys playdates, which makes her a great companion for social pups who enjoy interaction and play. My goal is always to create a calm, trustworthy environment where both pets and pet parents feel comfortable and confident.

Amy was amazing! We were a little nervous about leaving our dog with someone we didn't know. Amy immediately put us at ease and made us feel like our pup was the most important dog on the planet. She is extremely professional and answered all my texts quickly. She provided photos and updated us with how things were going daily. After meeting her we knew she would care for our dog like she was one of her own. She was extremely flexible at changing the dates of stay when I'd accidentally clicked the wrong days. Even though they were very last minute. Her compassion for animals is truly genuine as evidenced by the model she's set for her children. They, too, took to our dog and treated her like a real princess. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our pupper.

Rosalyn and her family were extremely welcoming to our furbaby Kane. He is a nervous dog, but seemed to warm up quickly with Rosalyn. I couldn't thank her enough for boarding Kane at the last minute. I appreciated the daily update messages with photos. I know Kane was in good hands. We 100% recommend Rosalyn and would use her services again if we return to the area.

About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs my whole life, but I love animals of every kind. As a biology student who can't have any pets of my own at school, I'll treat your pets like my family! I am taking organic chemistry over the summer, so my schedule will be very flexible. I am an early riser, so morning walks are not an issue for me. I am happy to make multiple visits to your pet each day! For dogs, I walk and feed them regularly and make sure they get as much exercise and socialization as they need. For cats, I feed them regularly, clean litter boxes, and give them space unless they want to be my friend. I will not touch any personal belongings unless I have permission to do so, and I will ensure the security of your home by locking doors and keeping all client information confidential. I am very reliable and I will care for your pet like they are my own!

About: Animals have always been a constant part of my life. I grew up in a home where there were always dogs and cats around, caring for them wasn’t just a responsibility, it was part of daily life. Over the years, I have personally raised and cared for three dogs of my own, each with different personalities and needs, which taught me patience, structure, and how to connect with animals on an individual level. Most recently, I adopted another dog into the family, adding even more joy and playful to the house. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I have experienced it all training, playtime, feeding routines, crate care, walks, and of course, lots of cuddles. Whether your pet is shy or social, active or relaxed, we understand how to make them feel safe, loved, and at home. I have a partner who has been pet sitting for her friends and co-workers last 4 years. I work at shipyard, but my work is pretty flexible that I can check out our dogs or any other pet frequently to make sure they receive enough attention love and most importantly care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I provide a calm and secure environment where dogs can relax and be themselves. I have a fully fenced big yard for safe outdoor play, and I supervise all interactions to make sure everyone is happy and comfortable. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible — from feeding schedules to crate preferences and bedtime habits — so they feel right at home. I never use harsh corrections; instead, I rely on positive reinforcement, patience, and gentle guidance. I also keep my home clean, pet-proofed, and free of anything unsafe. Whether your dog is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, we make sure they always feel safe, respect. I will keep sending regular updates and pictures or videos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands

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!!!!

About: I am a huge dog lover, I have trained my own two large dogs through therapy certification classes. I love taking the dogs for walks but can move at their speed too. I am great at giving medication if needed and will love and spoil your dog like it’s my own. I am a sahm so I am home every day except for 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour in the afternoon. We rarely leave the house on weekends Our dogs have mostly free roam of our house. We have a large side yard and screened in patio for lazy days. The dogs will never be alone.

About: If you are a regular, please contact me directly as I am booked daily frequently but I will make wiggle room for my familiar friends. I am now accepting bookings for summer & autumn 2026. Except for cats - My adult daughter is my regular backup if needed and she usually covers cats visits because they loooove her. *** BONDED/INSURED and I guarantee my behavior in your home!!! Please check with any of my other clients. I love being video taped!!! Your home is just as safe as your pets! I’ve been the go-to girl for pet care in my extended family, friends, neighbors and even within my church for decades. I’ve helped puppies being born and taken care of seniors who needed medication. I work from home and set hours as you need me. I'm available on short notice if I know you. Otherwise, I prefer a meet and greet with new customers. Details are important for all of us. For Drop-In Visits, what is comfortable for your animal is what I do. We can do playtime or just feed/water/love. Puppies can use me for mountain climbing and senior dogs find me a restful friend. I work with cats as well as dogs and am not afraid of keeping a litterbox clean. Also, if you have any tentative travel plans for 2026; please let me know as soon as possible. I hate turning people down but I already have week long overnight bookings scheduled every month into thru May. I would be glad to block out dates while you firm up your plans, if needed. My work zone is limited - I try to only take jobs within a ***3 MILE radius of CEDAR LANE*** - so I can focus on each pet instead of driving all over the place. If you ask any of my regulars, you will find I can (and have been) called in on an emergency with no hesitation. I only take 1 drop-in on days I have my regular or 3 drop ins on my ‘free’ days. Sittings are a case by case basis but if your pet will work with me, I would love to work with them. I will book as far as 12 MONTHS in advance if you need me. I work my schedule around your pets. Any questions, I will be glad to answer. For clarification - Drop-ins are scheduled between 9 am and 8pm. My phone only works during these hours unless I am sitting your pet. House/Pet sittings can be during the day or an overnight stay. Usually, Day shift is 9am to 5 pm but I am willing to work with you as your schedule requires. Walks and sittings are different things. But I will gladly work with you if you give me advance notice. Overnight stays are usually 8-10pm as needed to 8am. Please ask if you need a different schedule during reservation. If I know in advance, I’m glad to work with you and your pet(s). Hope this helps, I’ve gotten a lot of questions lately. 😉 I am so sorry my rates have gone up but gas and insurance is killing me as an independent contractor. I am willing to give discounts on multi day visits or long stays if you work with me. Thank you! 😊 This is my job and I love it. Meeting and spending time with new animals is a joy. I'm building my business through word of mouth so you have all my attention. Let me be of help. I answer text/calls between 9am and 11pm unless I am driving, working with someone, or out of town. My catch up day is Monday so if I do not have furry friends to visit and if I'm slow to answer, it’s because I'm covered in my dogs and cannot move. (They are little but insistent.) or running my many errands. I WILL respond to every request even if you are not in my zone. But I cannot respond while working or at church. You and your furry family are important to me, please let me prove it. I'm always willing to do drop ins and dog sitting. I love doing house sitting stays as it lets your pet be comfortable in his/her own space and keep to their schedule. I will follow your rules meticulously! Please feel free to contact anyone I have worked with, I'm very proud of the reviews I've been given. I will work with you and your pet to get the same happy review. I limit my work area so I spend more time with your pet and not traveling. Overnight covers a 10-12 hour period such as 8 pm to 8am.

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!

About: I have had pets all my life from dogs and cats to horses and even a squirrel and most everything in between. We even raised a couple on bottles! In the past few years I have taken care of a couple of family pets whenever they are on vacation. My children and I love having furry guests in our home! I have a fenced in back yard to ensure animals have a safe place to play and lay in the sunshine or they can stay inside and relax. I work full time from home so I am always able to be here with your fur baby. I work a computer job full time from home so I am available every day all day. I am able to be here with them at all times I have a fenced in yard that offers outside time, as weather permits, and potty breaks whenever it is needed. We will go for walk around the neighborhood as well. I live in a cul de sac and safe neighborhood.

About: Hi! I'm Emily. I've always been a big animal lover. I grew up with cats but helped take care of neighbor's dogs when I was younger. After my husband and I got married, we adopted our first rescue, Aggie. We adopted our 2nd rescue, Daisy a few years later. I've taken care of several dogs whether it be for family or friends throughout the years. I love the loyalty and joy they bring. I've watched several friends' dogs and regularly dog sat for a German Shepherd while living overseas. I've also had the rewarding experience of having my late dog, Aggie, CGC (canine good citizen) certified to do pet therapy through Therapy Dogs International and the Red Cross. I loved how happy it made people on our visits to hospitals and nursing homes. Dogs bring me so much happiness and joy. :) I'm currently a stay at home mom but work part time at an elementary school. I own one dog, Daisy, whom I walk regularly. I would love to look after other's dogs on a part-time basis! I would ensure your dog(s) are well taken care of by making sure they are fed, exercised, hydrated, entertained, and overall happy. Lots of cuddles and treats too! :)

About: I have always been expected to care of my own pets from a very young age and now mine live with me at college:) I love it so much I even created my own dog poop cleaning up business in sixth grade! Anything I could ever do to help someone with their pet is so rewarding, and I understand needing to travel and see the world or visit family as I have moved around a ton when I was younger. I’m super excited to join the app! Having my animals in college has helped me ensure I build a healthy schedule not only for myself, but also them! The way I love a routine, so do they. I try to get up around the same time each day and feed dinner around the same time also. My dogs don’t eat lunch, but I have cared for animals that have and it’s all about craving that extra important time for them to ensure they feel comfortable, especially with family gone. I love the outdoors and walks during the summer so doing that is the least I could do for my babies. I’m a very flexible and communicative person which hopefully sets up the best care:) I want to be as respectful as possible, and since working at a clients home I would want to make sure I know what works best for your animal. If is a lot of outside time, space, treats, being in the crate while gone or not. anything! I can totally work around that because I want you to have peace of mind for your home and pet:)

About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs my whole life, but I love animals of every kind. As a biology student who can't have any pets of my own at school, I'll treat your pets like my family! I am taking organic chemistry over the summer, so my schedule will be very flexible. I am an early riser, so morning walks are not an issue for me. I am happy to make multiple visits to your pet each day! For dogs, I walk and feed them regularly and make sure they get as much exercise and socialization as they need. For cats, I feed them regularly, clean litter boxes, and give them space unless they want to be my friend. I will not touch any personal belongings unless I have permission to do so, and I will ensure the security of your home by locking doors and keeping all client information confidential. I am very reliable and I will care for your pet like they are my own!

About: Hello! My name is Jadelynne, but i go by Jade (if it makes it easier)! 1 am 24 years old and I am currently in school at ECPI for my Bachelors in Healthcare Administration. I also work at Langley FCU in Poquoson (some of you may have already met me :)! ) In my spare time, I love to listen to music and read. I have a yorkie he is my pride and joy; His name is Bear (My baby bear) and is a very spry 14 year old boy lol! I cannot wait to meet the additional furry babies that i will encounter! I work part time and also in school in the evening time. One of my classes is online so i can watch your baby while tending to school. Dogs are the equivalent to human children in my mind. They need to be tended to at all times, and nurtured in the same way. They have just as many complex emotions as humans do and my goal is to ensure that all the fur babies are treated as such.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover and would love the opportunity to care for your pets when you can’t be with them. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, and even raccoons over the years! While I’m new to Rover, I have many years of hands-on experience caring for animals and pet sitting for friends and family. Our home is full of pets we adore, including three dogs—a Siberian Husky, a Beagle/Australian Cattle Dog mix, and a Yorkie—along with several birds of different breeds and a turtle. Because of this, I’m very comfortable caring for animals with different personalities, sizes, and needs. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who may need extra patience and gentle care. I’m also comfortable administering medications when needed. When caring for your pets, I treat them just like my own—with lots of love, patience, and attention. ⸻ My Pet Care Philosophy I believe pets are family, and they deserve to feel safe, loved, and comfortable even when their owners are away. My goal is to make your pet’s time with me feel as normal and stress-free as possible by following their usual routines and giving them plenty of attention. Every pet has their own personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one happy—whether that’s playtime, long walks, belly rubs, or just quiet companionship. Communication is very important to me, so while you’re away I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing. I know from personal experience how comforting it is to know your pets are happy and well cared for. Most importantly, I will treat your pets with the same love and care that I give my own pets. ⸻ Experience & Skills I’m comfortable caring for: • Dogs of all sizes and breeds • Cats • Birds and small pets • Puppies and kittens • Senior pets • Multi-pet households I’m also comfortable with: • Administering medications • Following feeding schedules and routines • Walks and exercise • Cleaning litter boxes and cages • Providing lots of affection and attention ⸻ What You Can Expect When your pet is in my care, you can expect: 🐾 Lots of love and attention 🐾 Safe and reliable care 🐾 Updates and photos while you’re away 🐾 Respect for your home and your pet’s routine My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable and happy. ⸻ Meet & Greets I’m always happy to schedule a free meet-and-greet so you and your pet can get to know me before booking. This helps make sure everyone feels comfortable and it’s a great fit. ⸻ ⭐ Warning: Your pet may get spoiled with extra love, attention, and belly rubs! I have a full time job during the week, but I’m available to care for and love on your pets in your absence in the evenings on weekdays and all day on weekends for those weekend getaway trips! When your pet is in my care, you can expect: 🐾 Lots of love and attention 🐾 Safe and reliable care 🐾 Updates and photos while you’re away 🐾 Respect for your home and your pet’s routine My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable and happy. ⸻ Meet & Greets I’m always happy to schedule a free meet-and-greet so you and your pet can get to know me before booking.

About: I am a certified, professional dog trainer, through the Victoria Stilwell Academy, a Pat Miller Certified Trainer and, have an 3rd certification through the Certification Council of Professional Dog Trainers. I only believe in Positive Reinforcement/Force Free training. Dogs are my life! If you have any behaviors you would like me to work on while they are with me let me know. If your pup comes to stay in my home, they will be treated like one of the family. They will receive all the love and attention they get at home. Plus they will have 2 playmates, my pups Sophie and Vinny! Let's talk and see if your pup will fit into our little family. You can rest assured they will be happy and healthy in our home. I do ask that we do a meet and greet with my dogs before I accept any appointments. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup! I am retired from the Air Force and own my own dog training business. So I set my own schedule and can give your pup all the attention it needs. I have a fully fenced yard and two very friendly dogs. Vinny will play all day if your pup wants to, but he is very respectful if they are not as active. Sophie is very independent and like to lounge around the house. Your dog will never be left alone with my dogs if I have to leave the house. I always separate the dogs when I leave, just in case anyone gets grumpy.

Cristen Michael and their son were fantastic. I got so many pictures and they loved on my old girl like she was their own. They even were able to get her to eat while I was gone, which is not something that normally happens. I will definitely be using them again!

​⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly Recommended! ​We couldn’t be happier with the outstanding care Omaira and Isaac provided for our dogs while we were away for a week. ​From start to finish, Omaira and Isaac were professional, highly communicative, and incredibly attentive to our dogs' needs and daily routines. We received regular updates and photos, which completely put our minds at ease and allowed us to truly enjoy our time away. ​It’s clear that Omaira and Isaac genuinely love animals and treats them as if they were their own. We returned home to happy, relaxed, and beautifully cared-for dogs. If you are looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable pet sitter, look no further. We will absolutely be booking again!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I have spent the last 3 years volunteering with Hope for Life Rescue and Penninsula Regional Animal Shelter, working hands on with pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments, from bottle feeding kittens and puppies to caring for senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m the go-to person for family and friends whenever they need someone reliable and loving to care for their pets, whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or overnight boarding. I have experience administering medications, handling nervous or shy animals, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for like family. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, and I treat every animal as if they were my own, with patience, compassion, and plenty of love. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because animals are already a big part of my life. I volunteer regularly with a local rescue and animal shelter, foster when needed, and I also run my own business from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and boarding. I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise, and my own pets (two cats and one dog) are all friendly, well socialized, and up to date on their vaccines. My dog, Mercury, just turned two and is full of energy. She loves meeting other dogs and enjoys playdates, which makes her a great companion for social pups who enjoy interaction and play. My goal is always to create a calm, trustworthy environment where both pets and pet parents feel comfortable and confident.

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.

Amy was amazing! We were a little nervous about leaving our dog with someone we didn't know. Amy immediately put us at ease and made us feel like our pup was the most important dog on the planet. She is extremely professional and answered all my texts quickly. She provided photos and updated us with how things were going daily. After meeting her we knew she would care for our dog like she was one of her own. She was extremely flexible at changing the dates of stay when I'd accidentally clicked the wrong days. Even though they were very last minute. Her compassion for animals is truly genuine as evidenced by the model she's set for her children. They, too, took to our dog and treated her like a real princess. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our pupper.

Mrs. Crystal has been a Godsend! After several stays with her, we can honestly say that finding someone you trust completely with your dog is priceless, and that’s exactly what we found in her. She consistently provides exceptional care, thoughtful updates, and genuine love for Jaxon. He is always excited to see her and comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Knowing he is in such capable and caring hands gives us tremendous peace of mind whenever we’re away. We are incredibly grateful and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy sitter. ❤️

This was my first time using Rover, it took me awhile to give it a try and now I wish I did It sooner. My pup was taken care of, loved the updates and for a small fee he was nice and freshly washed when I picked him. I would Definitely use her again! And highly recommend.
