“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!”

“I had an amazing experience with this sitter! They took excellent care of my dog while I was out of town and kept me updated the entire time. I really appreciated the pictures and check-ins, it gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing my dog was happy, comfortable, and in great hands. You can tell they truly care about the pets they watch. I’ll definitely be booking with them again! Highly recommend. 🐾”
“Took excellent care of Yuki providing us updates every time. Even went beyond and took care of his paws issue while we were away. Yuki came home happy, healthy, and clearly very comfortable with the sitter. If you're looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter, look no further. We will definitely be booking again for our next trip!”
“We had a last minute trip to San Diego planned and Cynthia was able to watch our precious Benny! She was very communicative and flexible as our plans changed a couple of times. She was so welcoming when we dropped off Benny and we felt at ease. She sent us updates and pictures throughout the day which was great. We would definitely book with Cynthia again!”
“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)!”
“Ben was great! My dog Ice took a while to relax being in a new place, and Ben did his best to make sure his stay was as safe and comfortable as possible. Daily photos and updates were nice too. Would board again with him!”

“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.”
“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. Throughout the stay her communications were excellent and she sent great pictures. We didn’t worry on our trip because we knew Lyra was in great hands! We knew Lyra was treated as family while in her stay! Would 100 percent book her again!”

“Katja watch our labradoodle for 5 days and she kept me updated with pictures and text daily.

I would 100% recommend her to anyone that is looking for a pet sitter in the Virginia Beach area!”
“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.”

“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.”
“Janie was great with our cat's drop in visits. Communication was really clear and she sent lots of pictures. We had several packages arrive while we were away and she was kind enough to bring them in for us. Awesome experience!”
“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!”
“Tea did drop ins for my kitten while I was away. I left her some instructions and she followed them completely. She was so prompt and communicative! I received a lot of pictures and good feedback about my kitten. I felt extremely safe allowing her to enter my home. I will definitely book drop ins with Tea in the future!”
About: I am a cat lover at heart and have been taking care of cats since I was 9 and have grown up with them since I was born. I have plenty of references and friends who had postive experiences with me:)
“Briana is an awesome pet sitter! She took great care of our 3 cats (one is a kitten!) during a long weekend away, and she was prompt, responsive, and showed our kitties a lot of extra love! I can tell they barely missed us when we got home! Will definitely look her up again for future needs!”
“Kelly did an amazing job looking after my cat! She provided very thorough reports of each visit, provided my cat with lots of attention and pets, and patiently made sure that my cat ate her meds at each meal time. Would absolutely book again!”

“VERY glad I found someone who loves cats. Many sitters on here seemed to be geared more towards dog sitting so I was happy to find Seph who absolutely adores my cats’ playtime! One of my cats has always been skiddish and would never come out if a stranger was over. However, Seph’s reports for my trip showed my cat coming out very quickly early on. Both my cats definitely enjoyed her stay/attention. I plan to book Seph for all other future trips I make!”

“Love Kristynah! She watched my pup Nesbit for doggie daycare and he was so happy after spending the day with her. I really appreciate that she introduced him to her cats and took adorable pictures. Her notes about what happened during the day were detailed and she really helped me out by letting me drop him off super early in the morning. We will definitely be visiting Kristynah again!”
“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!”

“Words can't describe how awesome my experience was putting the care of my puppy in Zack's hands. 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.”
“Rachel was great for keeping Georgie while we were away for a week. Georgie enjoyed the company of her four dogs and she made sure to introduce them each to Georgie in our meet up. Georgie enjoyed walks with her and her four babies as well as playtime in her fenced back yard! We will definitely use Rachel again.”
“Mary was very sweet and a prompt communicator. Our dog had a good time and enjoyed playing with her dog as well! It was great to have a safe and comfortable space to leave our pup while we were out for a long day.”
About: I've been an animal lover and owner of cats and dogs my whole life. While in college, I worked at a veterinarian's office just to be around pets, and it was the most rewarding and fun job I ever had! I lost my beloved Cavalier two years ago and miss him dearly, but I'm not ready to own again. I really miss having a pet companion and have lots of love to share with your pets. I live next door to a park, and our neighborhood is perfect for walking and meeting other pets. My home is spacious and clean with a fenced back yard. I will love and care for your pet as my own!! I am home every day. I like to get outside as much as possible to garden or walk around my neighborhood, so I would love to have a pet companion with me! I have a fenced back yard and a spacious home. I live adjacent to our neighborhood park which is perfect for playing with and walking pets.

I have plenty of experience working with all types of dogs, including ones that are nervous greeters, food aggressive, barrier reactivity, leash reactivity and more. I understand every dog is different and will always work to make your dog comfortable in any environment. Big advocate for always having treats on hand and reading their body language at every interaction.
“I will be continuing to take my pup to Priscilla as long as she will have her. Honestly my senior citizen pup has never been alone and lost her companion recently, Priscilla has comforted her and put me at ease. I cannot begin to describe how grateful I am for her.”

I spend quality time with them through walks, playtime, and gentle attention so they don’t feel lonely or stressed. I also watch closely for any changes in behavior or health and communicate updates to the owner so they feel at ease.
About: I volunteered at a local vet clinic through high-school and college so I'm familiar with basic pet care. I've worked with large and small breeds and enjoy pets of all kinds!

Let's play! I'm not nosey, or judgemental. Life be lifing sometimes- I don't care if your house is spotless and don't expect it to be. I've got two kids, two dogs and a husband- my house looks like it! I've never met a pet I didn't immediately want to play with and take care of, and pets tend to feel the same way about me.
“Kelly is kind, gentle, punctual, and trustworthy!! I had shoulder surgery so Kelly came over daily to walk my two dogs. One day, there were several emergency vehicles blocking my street. Kelly couldn’t get through with her car so she went home, got her bike, and made it to my house. Dedication and perseverance. Thank you, Kelly!”

I currently have a flexible work schedule that allows me to look after your pet. Just let me know whenever you need me and I will be there! I am very respectful of your home and property. It is my goal to create a safe space for your pet to feel comfortable and have fun because that is their home, I am just visitor.
