“Bailey absolutely loved Terry! When I picked him up, he was happy too see me, but he still ran to her and gave her lots of goodbye love. I will definitely use Terry again!!! She kept me updated and sent pics. I was also very impressed that she noticed that Bailey had a cough and called me immediately. I'm doing grateful that Terry took care of my baby as as her own.”
“I am more than pleased with the ❤️ and care DAMACIA provided for my 3 months puppy. I would recommend her and we will be going back. Was a little nervous at first, but she reassured me he would be fine even around other Fur Babies.”
“Amy has watched both of my pups numerous times. She has always done a great job taking care of them and sending pictures throughout the day so we know they’re enjoying themselves. Recently, we had to make the difficult decision to put our oldest dog to sleep before we had a scheduled booking with her. She was incredibly understanding and immediately ensured we received a full refund. The first time we took our other pup to stay with her after losing her older brother, Amy went above and beyond taking care of her for us. When we decided to pick her up a day early because we were missing her, Amy was thoughtful enough to refund us for the day even though we had no intention of asking for a refund. I would 100% recommend Amy if you want a quality, trustworthy sitter for your dogs.”
“We love Elizabeth, who takes such good care of our dog. Lots of photos and updates from Elizabeth while we are away, and we can see that our pup is having lots of fun and is very happy.”
“Radka is awesome. My dog spent a week with her and the entire time I received updates that showed Elle was having the time of her life—two walks a day, constant snuggles, and playtime in the fenced in yard. I knew she was safe and content and I highly recommend her.”
“Matt was great with our dog daisy! He sent frequent updates with lots of pictures - we could tell she was having so much fun! Will definitely book with him again.”
“Travis was phenomenal. We've worked with a lot of Rovers over the years--and host on Rover ourselves--and Travis was the best we've worked with! Thorough, conscientious, and accommodating in every way.”
“Kira was an absolute dream to work with. I've been on the road with my dog for 10 months straight and have used many sitters across the country and she was by far the most reliable and communicative. My dog almost didn't want to come back home with me! But in all seriousness, Kira was professional and accommodating when I had to shift to an overnight last minute. She's just beginning her journey towards a career working with animals, so she is highly qualified to deal with all types of situations. Cannot recommend highly enough !!”
“Elizabeth was kind enough to board Sam for me which was awesome because my dog could in and out at his leisure which is an ideal set up. She also kept in touch with me on how he was doing.”
“Laura was fantastic! She sent updates and pictures everyday. Nellie had the most fun with Laura and her family. I loved how they really adopted Nellie into the family for the week!”
“Dawn was so sweet taking care of my puppy! It was my first time leaving him for an extended period of time and Dawn made the whole experience completely stress free! I got pictures and updates 3 times a day and it was evident that Willie was having a great time :) I can’t recommend Dawn highly enough!”
“Another great stay with Cyndi! Really appreciate all of the pictures and communication she provides throughout the stay. Our pup is always well taken care of and happy while in her care. Thanks Cyndi!”
“Hilary and Wally are great. They are super easy to communicate with, and when our plans are not definite they work with us on pick up and drop off times. They have a fenced in back yard, and our dog loves it there. Hilary is also great about sending pictures during his stay.”
“Michelle did a wonderful job watching our boy Remy! He can be very shy and nervous in new environments but Michelle made him feel right at home. Loved getting the updates and photos while we were out of town. Highly recommend and will book again :)”
“Call Pamela and their dog Marlowe were great hosts for our spaniel, Jewelie. They have a lovely fence backyard and the dogs played a lot everyday they took very personalized care of her and we would love to bring her back sometime!”
“Laura and DJ took such great care of our dogs, Benny and Kiwi, while we were away for our wedding weekend!! They sent regular picture and video updates of the pups playing, getting love, and having fun. I can’t thank them enough! Definitely 10/10 recommend booking with them!”
“Kiki was the greatest! For this being my first time using Rover, she really made me feel at ease. I will definitely book with her again. Marley didn’t even want to come home!”

“Meghan was great with my cats. Even Beans, who hides from everyone but me, found himself rolling over for belly rubs from Meghan. Highly recommend her and would definitely request her services again!”

“Cate was very professional, punctual, and provided excellent care for our two cats while we were away for a week. She provided photos and detailed narratives for each of her visits. I highly recommend her.”

“Alexandra watched my kitten, Louis at her home for a couple of nights and was absolutely wonderful! Her dog was also super sweet and got along wonderfully with Louis. Alexandra was very communicative and sent tons of updates and pictures of Louis. I felt completely at ease leaving him in her hands and I would 100% have him stay with Alexandra and her dog again! 😊”
“Grace was wonderful to work with. My 9 year old cat lived to play and snuggle with her. I returned to a cat who was not stressed and who was taken care of. I had Grace come over twice a day to feed, clean the litter box, and connect with my cat. All was done wonderfully. I will hire her again and highly recommend her.”

“I’m so grateful for Pamela & Paul. They make every effort to do what is best for my dog (exercise, food, social) and let me know if there’s a concern. My dog is so very happy when she sees we have arrived at their house. She can’t wait to go inside.”

“Katharine was so responsive and kind as I navigate a last minute work trip. Her house was obviously a pups heaven and I was so grateful that my dogs, Swoosh and Frankie, were able to stay with Katharine and Louie (x2) for a few hours. If we’re ever back in Richmond, Katharine will always be our first call!”
“If I could give her 10 stars I would!!! My Lily had such a great time. I really appreciated the tour of where she would be the dogs she will be around before leaving her. I felt very comfortable with leaving her there. I will absolutely use Nadia again and again ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”
“Julie was so accommodating and sweet with our little Lola. Having a backyard to run around in was great! We’ll definitely be having Julie watch Lola anytime we are headed out of town!”

About: I have owned and taken care of dogs, cats, and other pets for many years now. I thoroughly enjoy their company, and they seem to enjoy mine as well. I am very energetic and love spending time outside. As a carer for dogs, I believe strongly that they should get a ton of out door exercise. If you choose me as a care provider, you can be assured that they will be very active during their time with me, and location and temperament permitting, will have plenty of fresh air and green space to enjoy. In addition to loving on pets professionally, I work remotely from home as a grant writer. I make my own schedule, and can easily make time to get some fresh air. I live very close to Forest Hill Park, and spend lots of time there and the Buttermilk trail with and without dogs to walk. If you live elsewhere, I'll be exploring the green spaces near you with your dogs, and treating your personal space like the guest I am.
“Cindy is a wonder! My scaredy-dog loves her, and went to her willingly even though it had been a long time since his last visit. She asked if I’d like her to give him a bath, and that was a very welcome addition. Thank you Cindy!”
“I needed a to find a dogsitter the night beforehand and Dawn was very accommodating of my request. There were other dogs there with mine and she kept me was proactive about gauging my comfort based on the other dogs’ personalities. I received updates throughout the day and pictures that showed my dog was given both space to socialize, exercise, and relax. I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to her again for any dog sitting needs I have.”
“This was Deuce (my Yorkie’s) first dog care experience and it was a successful. Ethel was a great communicator and made this a great experience. Although this was the first time, it certainly will not be the last! Thank you Ethel!”
About: I have two amazing dogs, Milo and Winter, that play constantly! They are best of friends and always welcome new friends. Milo is an 8 month old puppy still learning house training and making amazing progress. I found him at a rescue in Philly when I was visiting March 2026- love at first site! He clicked so well with my German Shepherd mix Winter, that I rescued in June 2025. Prior to falling in love with these two rescues, I helped foster several dogs through a local rescue- while healing from the loss of my dog of 13 years, Bella. She was a one dog household kind of girl, but Winter was just the opposite. I could tell she needed a friend, and Milo came into our lives at just the right time. I so look forward to helping care for your fur babies and will give them all the walks, plays, and cuddles they might need. I’ll ensure all your care is personalized to your dog’s specific needs. Also, would love to send you pic updates while you’re at work or adventuring! If your dog is in my care for doggy daycare, I will be home with them, unless otherwise discussed with you. If I’m hired to come walk your dog, I’ll give you a detailed update of our walk! I am home and available 7 days a week, unless I’m traveling. My dogs get lots of attention and walks. We love the James River Park system 🫶 I will ask for lots of detail about your pets specific needs so I can curate their care so they feel right at home! A home away from home.
“Zaria is wonderful with dogs. My little ones tend to be shy and skittish with strangers but not with her. They were comfortable immediately. It was such a relief to know they would be happy with her. I HIGHLY recommend Zaria to take for your fur babies too!”

“Brandi was so great with my dogs while I was away. She sent me a detailed report about their behaviors while on their walk. I received multiple great pictures of my babies attached to the report and it made me feel so much better while I was away. As someone who is a first time user of Rover, I am so glad to have found someone who is knowledgeable, caring, and willing to help in any way she can. I highly recommend Brandi to anyone who loves their furbabies”

About: I have been pet sitting for my community since I can remember!!! I have experience administering medications in topical form, oral medication via syringe, eye ointments, and nose droppers!! I work full time, so I will only be able to do weekend overnight bookings, but during the weekend I can be available all day to help you and your pet as much as needed!!! For daily drop ins, I will be able to check in before, during, and after working hours due to my flexible working schedule :-) I will respect all of the rules and jobs that the owner of the pet would give to me!!! I am clean, responsible, and honest!!
“Steven has helped us a few times now. He is always extremely responsive, responsible and the dogs love him! (The cats don't talk as much but I'm pretty sure they think he's fine.) We are so grateful to have Steven to help us. He took our oldest dog out for a walk by herself and then came back and got the other, more rambunctious ones!”
“Kayley has been so patient and sweet to my Ellie, even when Ellie hasn’t been the sweetest to her. She makes sure the pups are as comfy and happy as can be!”
“Emmalee has taken the time to get to know our dog and he has taken to her very quickly and he is a very sensitive soul so that speaks volumes! Really happy and relaxed knowing she is caring for him, would definitely recommend.”
“Alethea is great! She’s good with our Samoyed and is thoughtful about timing of the walk. Also very communicative with scheduling - was super easy to figure things out when we needed to adjust for rain. Bingsoo ran up to her and was excited to go on his walk this morning, which makes me confident he’s having fun!”

Additionally, I have spent over 100 hours volunteering at my local animal shelter during the summer and I’m continuing my animal knowledge as a Wildlife Conservation major at Virginia Tech. I am currently a student at Virginia Tech, but have lots of flexibility with my schedule especially in the evenings and weekends for pet care! I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I’m reliable, communicative, and can always send photo updates so you know your pet is happy and safe while you’re away.

About: I've been around dogs my entire life: Owned 4 and raised/trained 16 service dogs in training for children with disabilities. I run half marathons, so I'll run with your pup if that's what they like! I have plenty of toys that I've collected over the years for your dog to play with! I love teaching dogs new tricks and commands, and would love to work with your fur baby so they can show you something special when you return! I take pictures constantly, so you will always have an update on your pup. I am comfortable with all breeds, and have the most experience with labs, goldens, and doodles. I am happy to give your pup a bath for a small fee so they come back to you looking and feeling great! I also have experience teaching basic commands to your dog, and would be more than happy to discuss training programs if that’s something you’re interested in! I also have experience with kittens and cats, having had 3 of my own. I'm comfortable with super friendly cats, or cats that want to keep to themselves. I will make sure your cat has food, water, and a clean litter box while you are away. In addition I can offer care for any gardens/houseplants that you have as well!

I am also very comfortable caring for cats and all that that entails while the cat stays in your home, usually where they are the most comfortable.
“First time ever using the app so I was really nervous about it, but DAMACIA made me feel completely at ease. She listened to all my concerns and how to take care of my sweet boy because he is hard of hearing. She took him on a walk around the neighborhood and Maximus seemed to enjoy it. Now that the walk is over my sweet boy is passed out on the couch probably for the rest of the day. Will definitely be using her services in the near future.”

“This was our first-time using Miranda and she made us feel comfortable from the very start. We started with a pre-stay meet and greet to make sure our dogs got along, and everything went perfectly. Miranda did an awesome job with Draco from the time we dropped him off until the time we picked him up. She sent us many videos and pics and in all of them he looked super happy. It really seemed that he had acclimated and became a part of her family, and they treated him as such. He also really enjoyed playing with their son and their beautiful chocolate lab. We will definitely be using her again in the near future. Draco looked like he was having such a great time in all the pictures and videos, and we were worried that he wouldn't want to come back home to us LOL.”
“My two pups have a wonderful time. Andreea sent me video and stills. They ran around her spacious garden. She treated them like family. She is a wonderful pup sitter. Who has a loving heart for animals.”

About: Call me Libby :) Dogs are my absolute passion in life! I was raised in a home with dogs and I’ve been a personal pet owner for over 10 years. I have experience raising and fostering puppies, seniors, and everything in between! I’ve had dogs in hospice care, with special needs, medical issues, etc. I have basic training skills and there are no stairs in my home in case your dog can’t use them. I have a large fenced in yard for play time or sunbathing in a safe and quiet neighborhood. They will be treated as if they are my own and loved on for every minute they are in my care! I run my own business so my work hours are flexible. I never leave the home for more than 4-5 hours at the absolute maximum. My 2 dogs and I go on evening walks everyday (after it’s cooled off in the summer time) and lots of outdoor time in between. My life revolves around my dogs needs so yours will fit in perfectly! I have a large fenced in yard and crates of different sizes if you need or want them to be crated. I have two friendly dogs so your baby will never be alone. My youngest dog will be a loving companion to your pet and make sure they feel like they’re at home. Whether that’s playing or napping, he will fall in love with them instantly!
