I’ll definitely be booking with them again! Highly recommend. 🐾”
“My 2 pups had a great time staying with Patricia for a week. Normally they come everywhere with me but I couldn't take them this time as I was flying across country. Patricia provided me with updates and pictures the whole time and made me feel comfortable & safe to leave them in her care!”
“Wendy and Johnny took wonderful care of Clark Kent during his stay. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was safe, happy, and so well cared for while I was away. Their thoughtful updates and photos meant the world to me and made it so much easier to be apart from him. It was clear they genuinely cared about Clark and treated him like one of their own. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust them again and look forward to booking with them in the future. Tell Dennis Clark appreciated his company and sharing his space with him. Thank you both for taking such great care of my little buddy!”
“Highly recommend Ben and Shannon! This is such a nice family. We felt so comfortable leaving our two dogs and could tell they were in great hands. They kept us updated the entire stay and took great care of our two babies. They made sure to send us pictures the whole stay which included adorable photos of their kids walking our dogs and cuddling with them. They really treated them like family. Our dogs were in the best care there and so loved! My husband and I kept joking that they may not want to come home haha. We will defintely book again!”

“Meagan was awesome! Especially with a last minute booking, she was available for meet and greet prior and asked and answered any questions with ease.

We knew Lyra was treated as family while in her stay! Would 100 percent book her again!”

I would 100% recommend her to anyone that is looking for a pet sitter in the Virginia Beach area!”
“I'm so grateful to have found Kristynah on Rover. She took great care of my dog by giving him his daily meds, taking him on plenty of walks, playing with him throughout the day, and making frozen yogurt treats to help with his post-antibiotic digestion. Krisynah's experience as a dog owner and caretaker is evident. She's knowledgeable about dog behavior and knows what precautions to take. I usually have difficulty not worrying about my dog when away on travel, but that wasn't an issue this time. We will definitely book with her again (in fact, we already have)!”
“I’ve booked with Nicole several times as she takes such great care of my pup! With pictures and updates, I never have to worry about her when I’m out of town.”
“Nyah is very sweet. She was accommodating to a last minute, same day request with a drop off within 2 hours. Amazing right! What a blessing We had an extremely important event the following day and our original pet plan didn’t work out Nyah opened her home and allowed 2 night boarding for our kitty Being on vacation and unfamiliar with the areas pet care Rover was my only option. This was our first time using Rover, Thankfully the site provides quality sitters like Nyah who have availability to get you out of a pinch It didn’t hurt that Nyah has a cat of her own We were excited that Coda could spend some time with a fellow feline:) She communicated well and sent updates and pics daily. I recommend this home for your pet baby needs and would use Nyah as a sitter again.”
“Taylor is AWESOME!! He took amazing care of my big girl Hannah while I was out of town, always updating me and me sending pictures!

“Highly recommend! She went over and beyond with my fur baby Dragon. She did more than what I asked. Made sure he was fed, cleaned, and even played with him. She took pictures daily. He look so comfortable. He was so happy when I got home. She is very flexible with work schedules.”
“I cannot express enough how wonderful our cat sitter was during our time away! From the moment we met her, it was clear that she was a true cat lover, and she certainly lived up to that reputation. Every day, she sent us adorable pictures of our kitties, which were the highlight of our trip! We loved receiving updates of our furry friends lounging, playing, and occasionally plotting their next great adventure (likely involving knocking something off the shelf). It was almost as if our cats were determined to showcase their personality, and she captured every silly moment on camera Not only did she take stunning photos, but she also took exceptional care of our cats. Each day, she made sure they were well-fed, happy, and entertained. We returned home to a spotless litter box and a sense that our fur babies had been pampered to their hearts' content. She even went above and beyond by organizing a little playtime session that involved a string toy and a lot of bewildered but amused tail-chasing. Her humor really shone through in the ways she described their antics in her messages. "My husband and I are Pawsitively thrilled with Megan as our cat sitter!" I can just imagine our kitties chortling in delight as they plotted their world domination while she played with them! Overall, we couldn’t have asked for anyone better to care for our beloved furballs. If you're searching for a cat sitter who treats your pets like family and has a knack for capturing their quirkiest moments, look no further! We’ll definitely be calling her again for our next getaway. Thank you for making our cats feel loved and cherished while we were away!”
About: Animals have always been my happy place. At home, I’m lucky enough to share my life with two dogs, two cats—Mini, our curious orange tabby, and Cassie, our beautiful black 1 year old rescue - that we just brought home, and my horse, Grayson. Every one of them has their own personality, and that’s one of the things I love most about animals. I know cats aren’t one-size-fits-all. Some greet you at the door, some prefer a quiet routine, and some take a little time to warm up. I’ll care for your cat with patience, kindness, and respect for their unique personality, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your cat wants to chase toys, curl up for a nap, or simply have someone dependable to feed them and keep them company, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I’ll also send plenty of updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in caring hands.
“Discovered Laura and her helpful daughter on a last minute trip. They were great with Roxie and provided excellent communication on the drop in visits.”
“Laura is the best! She took great care of my cats while I was on a weekend getaway. Laura is the ultimate cat whisperer — if you would like someone who not only makes sure the cats are fed and kitty litter cleaned, but goes above and beyond to spend quality time with your kitties while you’re away, I 100% recommend Laura to take care of your fur babies.”
“Jamie was a very attentive cat sitter. She showed up on time and made sure my two older cats were well taken care of. I appreciated that Jamie let me know how things were going and asked questions. I would be happy to have her come again!”
“Ashlee was awesome! We needed someone last minute and over Thanksgiving no less. She took great care of our two cats and even came a couple extra times when we were worried one of our cats wasn’t feeling well.”

“We felt very lucky to have connected with Janelle! We were able to leave Benny with her for day care so we could enjoy the beach and dinner out, knowing he was in good hands. Janelle was very responsive to communications and patiently answered all our questions. We were able to have a meet and greet to confirm that Benny would be comfortable with Janelle - and vice versa - before he stayed for day care. Would definitely do this again. Thanks, Janelle!”

After that we had a cotton de Tulear named Marley. I now have another loving and friendly dog named Marlo he is also a cotton de Tulear. I have a lot of experience walking, feeding and loving on dogs of all ages and sizes My Home is also a very loving environment for your dog to rest relax and play with lots of toys to choose from and lots of cuddles provided. I don’t work, so I am home the majority of the time. I am currently self-employed, and I am home the majority of the time. I have a very flexible schedule and a healthy routine for any dog. My home is a very peaceful and loving environment right on the ocean so your dog will be walked right next to the water and I also make sure to always take dogs out every 2 to 4 hours, depending on the dogs age and needs. If I am coming to your home to take care of your dog, I will make sure to take him on a long walk play with him and make sure to feed him and have water in his bowl.

As soon as I drop them off, he felt so at home,and it was clear to see that my puppy will be in good hands!! When picking him up, he was in a great mood! I brought him home, and he fell as straight to sleep. Zach's dogs played so well with Carmelo, and I look forward to setting up another time for him to spend the day with them! I look forward to the next play date Zach's house with his dogs, and I recommend anyone ,who wants their dog to be in great hands to choose him as a handler.”

About: Animals have always been at the heart of my life. I currently care for my own horse, two wonderful dogs, and two beloved cats, so I understand firsthand that every pet deserves individualized attention, patience, and genuine affection. As a lifelong animal lover, I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and horses of all personalities—from energetic puppies and playful kittens to senior pets and large animals. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, companionship, or simply someone to love on them while you're away, I'll care for them as if they were my own. I also have a reliable truck, so if your pet needs transportation to a veterinary appointment, doggie daycare, or grooming appointment, I can help. I'm dependable, attentive, and committed to keeping your pets safe, happy, and comfortable in their familiar environment. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family members with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. For me, caring for animals isn't just a job-it's what brings me joy. Because I own my own business, I have more flexibility than a traditional 9-to-5 schedule. This allows me to provide reliable visits, personalized attention, and plenty of updates while you’re away. As someone who shares my home with two dogs, two cats, and my horse, Grayson, I know how much trust it takes to leave your animals in someone else’s care. I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’ll treat your pets with patience, kindness, and genuine love while following their routine as closely as possible. My goal is simple: for your pets to feel safe and for you to have complete peace of mind.

About: Hi, my name is Laura. I am a full-time government contractor and a yoga instructor on the side. My work schedule offers flexibility, and I value reliability, clear communication, and attention to detail — all of which I bring into the care of your home and your pets. I grew up with both cats and dogs and have cared for them throughout all stages of life, from early years through senior care. I have experience with high-energy dogs as well as pets who need a slower, more attentive approach. At this time, I’m not able to welcome a new pet into my own home, but I genuinely enjoy caring for animals in their familiar environment while their humans are away. I treat every visit with intention, patience, and respect — for both your pet and your space. I offer in-home care, including: • Dog walking and drop-in visits • Feeding, playtime, and companionship • Medication administration when needed • Plant care and home check-ins (watering plants, collecting mail/packages, opening blinds, and general wellness checks) Whether it’s caring for your pet, your plants, or your home while you’re traveling, I aim to provide peace of mind through thoughtful, consistent care and photo updates. I’m primarily available for pet care and home check-ins from Thursday through Monday. On Tuesdays and Wednesdays my availability is more limited due to evening yoga classes, but I can still accommodate select visits with advance notice. I prioritize safety, consistency, and respect for each pet’s routine and home. I follow instructions carefully, maintain secure entry and exits, and provide calm, attentive care in your home.

I currently have no pets but have recently taken care of friends’ dogs. This has included overnight and daytime boarding at my house while taking care of all walking, playing, and feeding needs. I’m currently working PRN (part time) as a physical therapist and I have a lot of flexibility and freedom in my schedule.

About: I have grown up helping to take care of family pets, as well as watching them and other pets for friends and family members. I have done anywhere from week-long stays to just pop-in visits. I am currently working part-time while home for a couple months. I will have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets! Whether it’s overnight or just daily walks! I always want to make sure the pet(s) is comfortable when I am entering their space.

Krisynah's experience as a dog owner and caretaker is evident. She's knowledgeable about dog behavior and knows what precautions to take. I usually have difficulty not worrying about my dog when away on travel, but that wasn't an issue this time. We will definitely book with her again (in fact, we already have)!”
“I’ve booked with Nicole several times as she takes such great care of my pup! With pictures and updates, I never have to worry about her when I’m out of town.”
“Nyah is very sweet. She was accommodating to a last minute, same day request with a drop off within 2 hours. Amazing right! What a blessing We had an extremely important event the following day and our original pet plan didn’t work out Nyah opened her home and allowed 2 night boarding for our kitty Being on vacation and unfamiliar with the areas pet care Rover was my only option. This was our first time using Rover, Thankfully the site provides quality sitters like Nyah who have availability to get you out of a pinch It didn’t hurt that Nyah has a cat of her own We were excited that Coda could spend some time with a fellow feline:) She communicated well and sent updates and pics daily. I recommend this home for your pet baby needs and would use Nyah as a sitter again.”
“Taylor is AWESOME!! He took amazing care of my big girl Hannah while I was out of town, always updating me and me sending pictures! From our initial meeting with him before bringing Hannah by, I knew he was the one for her. His caring and gentle ways and experience with large dogs made this the perfect match. I will definitely book with him again!”
“Thank you so much for your kindness and patience with our energetic little boy. We know he can be a bit of a challenge sometimes, but you never gave up, and we truly appreciate it.”
“Another wonderful experience. Nina is caring, reliable, and always treats our dogs like they are her own. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout their stay, which gave us peace of mind and allowed us to see how happy and comfortable they were. We truly appreciate the love, attention, and great communication she provides. We highly recommend Nina and will definitely continue using her in the future!”
“We found our new Dog Sitter!! She was so good with our pups while visiting family out of town for 10 days. She let me know how they were doing frequently. You can tell she loves animals of any kind! Thank you Linda, we so appreciate your time and talents. Until next time.”
“Chris was great from the start. He's very responsive and he is punctual. We appreciated Chris' willingness to meet Archie prior to a long, holiday boarding with him. Archie immediately liked Chris' calm nature and started exploring his space. While Chris was watching Archie, he was quick to let us know how he was doing anytime we asked. Archie even got to share some time with Chris' extended family and got lots of attention from the kids. When we picked up Archie, he was very excited and wanted all of us to back inside his house so we could all hang out. Thank you for taking such good care of Archie!”
“Amazing as always! Our older pup was sick while we were away and they tended to him with so much care and attention. We always feel so at ease when our dogs are staying with Mary and Sebastian!! Thank you!”
