Cannot recommend Leslie enough! She took such amazing care of Cash. From the moment she met him at the meet and greet thru the stay I’ve never felt more comfortable trusting my pup with someone. Cash loved her spacious back yard, lounging around, and the long walks/runs. She even had a special treat for him since he was staying with her during Christmas. I had to say “Let’s go home” three times because he wasn’t ready to leave. So thankful for Leslie’s attentiveness, communication, and care!

This was my second time leaving our two Jack Russell‘s with Tamara. However, I was not sure how they would be leaving them for eight nights. They did great, and came home tired!😁 Tamara was very accommodating after I realized at the very last minute while in another country that I booked one day less with her than I needed. She was able to keep my dogs until I returned. I hope Tamara will be available whenever I have to go out of town again.

Ali did an amazing job watching our pup for five days! Cooper is an eight month old morkie who is going through a skittish phase with new people. Ali and her family put him right at ease and updated me with photos throughout the week. I could tell he was relaxed and felt right at home! Staying with a family was a much better option for Cooper than a kennel. I would highly recommend Ali and will be using her services again!

This was the first time leaving our puppy with anybody. He is seven year old husky mix who has the all of the husky quirks but who is a very sweet dog. While with Jaime & Mike I saw that the whole family really looked after Max. During our time away they updated us with texts and pictures, and when we arrived to pick him up he was happily walking outside with Mike. He had a bed set up close to everyone so he wouldn’t feel alone. I would definitely leave him there again, you can tell they really like dogs and that makes a difference

Our golden retriever Cody had a great stay with Stacie! He came home very happy after spending spring break week with her! Stacie treated him as her own and he had fun romping in her large, fenced in yard, with the other dogs who were staying with her. Stacie sent us updates and lots of photos daily. She was very accommodating to our travel schedule and we couldn’t be happier with her. We will definitely call her for our next trip!

I also loved that she also has a mini Goldendoodle, so Buddy had a buddy to keep him company! He looked very comfortable and happy in her home. I would definitely recommend Vidhi, and I have booked her again for next weekend.

Zahra and her family did an excellent job looking after my little guy. Super responsive and they have an amazing space for you doggies to run around in. Their home was clean, they sat down with me to discuss Xerxes’ needs and made sure to check in when he was with them. I have to also note that she showed a tremendous amount of patience and flexibility when I had a delayed flight from my trip. Would definitely entrust my little guys care to them again.

Great experience boarding my dog with this family! I met up with them prior to boarding and after talking with them, I could tell this was going to be a great match! My dog is high energy and it’s really important for me to know that she will have fun while she’s staying somewhere. This family understood this and really went above and beyond to give me peace of mind while I was away. I could tell from the photos and videos that my pup was cared for the way I would care for her. I highly recommend and will be using them again myself in the future.

She sent so many pictures and videos and really went above and beyond to ensure he got lots of love and attention.

About: Hi, I'm Kate! I grew up with cats and have had at least one cat in my household at all times for my entire life. I have extensive experience with diabetic cats, including administering insulin injections, and have cared for elderly cats necessitating multiple visits per day. In my experience, cats can identify cat people, and I have been able to quickly and consistently gain the trust of even very standoffish cats. As a cat parent myself, I know leaving your fur babies can be worrying, so my goal is to alleviate that. I provide consistent updates and spend extra time giving pets, playtime, and making sure every cat feels loved and cared for while their parent is away. I would love to meet your kitties and hope to provide a great experience for both you and your cat!

Words do not describe how AMAZING Sughra is with our fluffy feline!! We are just back from an 11-day journey overseas, and I could not be more pleased with her care for our boy, and her regular (and surprise) communications throughout our time away. I had a good feeling when I met her prior to our trip. She just seemed very genuine and attentive and dependable. But she went above and beyond in so many ways, I cannot begin to thank her enough for the peace of mind I had while we were gone for our cat and for our home. She exceeded every hope and expectation I had by a mile!! Our cat adores her....maybe more than he likes me!! I wholeheartedly recommend her, and I will definitely reach out to her again when we go out of town. Thank You, Sughra!!

Danielle is so great to work with-taking care to follow your guidelines/schedule regarding care and feeding, yet making that care seem easy, like you are working with a pet-loving family member. And feeling comfortable while you are away, that all will be well with your pet, that confidence is priceless. Thank you Danielle!

We hired Alexandra for drop-ins for our cat and she was great! At our first meeting she immediately was sitting on the floor giving our cat the affection he was requesting, and he was so happy. While we were gone she gave him all the cuddles he needed (we could tell by his behavior when we returned) and she followed the instructions we left. She always responded to messages quickly and communicated clearly. Definitely recommend.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes and have 6 years of experience making sure pets stay happy and healthy while their owners are away. I have a ton of energy for long walks, park trips, and playing fetch for high-energy dogs, but I also can be calm and relaxed for senior dogs. Because I study at home, my schedule is very flexible, which is perfect for house-sitting! I can spend the majority of my day at your home, ensuring your pet is never left alone for long periods. I’m available for overnight stays during the week and on weekends, and I make it a priority to stick to your pet's specific walking and feeding routine so their day feels totally normal while you're away. I take the responsibility of staying in your home very seriously. I am extremely diligent about home security—always double-checking that doors and windows are locked and that your pet is secure before I step out. I pride myself on leaving your home exactly as I found it (or cleaner!). I’m also a very frequent communicator; I love sending daily photo updates and quick 'check-ins' so you never have to wonder how things are going.

Made sure they were both eating and getting some extra protein and played with them. She was reliable and very timely, kept to her schedule as discussed and took care of the little pans.

About: My first pets were 2 rats. I took care of them exclusively, bathed them, fed and cleaned up after them. The family cat Simba was mainly my responsibility with occasional help from family, and I would take care of our family dog Bentley when I was home for summers from college. I've helped care for several other animals when babysitting children, and occasionally dog sat overnight for other families over a 3 day weekend period. I've also loved my time volunteering at the local dog shelter where I walk, clean up after, and play with all the dogs up for adoption until they find their forever families. Also enjoyed a 6 week program at a dog shelter in Athens, Greece in 2024! I’m in town for the next six weeks with open availability! I’d love to work as much as possible and give your fur baby anything they might need. I care for all pets as if they were my own, making sure they have all the attention and care they need and then some.

About: I’ve always been involved with caring for animals in some way. I’ve personally had my own cats, dogs, and other small animals as well as experience on a farm. I’m happy to stop by and make sure your animals are cared for just as well as if they were my own! I’ve gone through every season of pet care from potty and leash training, to round-the-clock medication schedules for aging pets and pretty much everything in between. I stay at home full time with my kids, so can be flexible to your weekday schedule. While you’re at work I can make sure your pet gets their walks throughout the day, bathroom breaks, and timely medications, etc. I am respectful of my clients’ homes and ensure I follow home and pet care instructions carefully. Special instructions for individual pets needs are very helpful, so I can make sure your pet gets exactly what they are accustomed to.

About: Hi! I’m Katie, I’m 20 and a huge animal lover! I’ve grown up around pets my whole life and can’t imagine life without them. I have two dogs of my own, a playful young Labrador I’ve trained myself, and a sweet 13-year-old Westie, so I understand the needs of both energetic pups and senior dogs. Over the past several years, I’ve cared for many neighbors’ pets, including dogs of all sizes and breeds, as well as cats with all kinds of personalities. Whether your pet needs a walk, some playtime, medication, or just a little extra love while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’m reliable, experienced, and truly passionate about animals, their comfort and happiness are always my top priorities! Pet care easily fits into my daily routine because animals are already a huge part of my life. I have two dogs of my own, so I’m used to early walks, feeding schedules, and making time throughout the day for attention, play, and exercise. I’m very organized and flexible, so I can adjust my schedule around each pet’s specific needs, whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care. Spending time with animals doesn’t feel like a chore to me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to every day. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I always follow your instructions closely, from feeding and walk schedules to any specific needs your pet may have. I make sure your pet feels comfortable in their own space and give them plenty of attention, love, and care while you’re away. I treat every home with the same respect and care I’d want for my own, and I understand how important it is to build trust, both with your pet and with you. Safety is always my top priority, and I do everything I can to make sure your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re gone.

I’m bilingual (English & Spanish), so I can communicate comfortably in both languages —making it easier for you to feel understood and confident when we talk about your furry family member. 💬🐾 I began my journey as a rescuer and volunteer in animal shelters in Puerto Rico, caring for dogs and cats in delicate conditions and staying by their side until they found their forever homes. That experience taught me empathy, patience, and what it truly means to care from the heart. After moving to Virginia, I continued volunteering at local shelters, gaining even more experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and special needs. Caring for animals remains the heart of my daily life. At home, your pet will meet Athenas, my sweet, calm, and friendly dog who loves making new friends —both dogs and cats. I like to provide a balanced routine, with fun walks around our community’s pet park, interactive play, mental stimulation, and cozy relaxation time in a safe, loving environment. During their stay or care, your pet is my priority. I make sure they receive all my attention, love, and supervision so they feel comfortable, happy, and safe at all times. 💛🐾 For me, the most important thing is your pet’s safety and your peace of mind, knowing your furry friend is in good hands. I like to maintain constant communication with pet parents and share multiple updates throughout the day, whether it’s photos, videos, or messages showing how your pet’s day is going. 📸🐾 I never call unless it’s an emergency, but I genuinely enjoy keeping you updated because I know how important it is to feel connected and reassured. If you prefer a different communication style (for example, fewer updates or only once a day), just let me know —I’ll gladly adapt to your preferences. 💕 I’m trained in Pet CPR and First Aid, and I’m comfortable administering oral medications when needed. I completely understand that leaving your pet in someone else’s care can be hard —for both you and your furry friend. That’s why I do everything possible to ensure everyone feels comfortable and at peace from the very beginning. We love treating every pet as part of our own family, giving them the same love, respect, and attention we give to our own. ✨ I only host one family at a time to guarantee fully personalized care. For day sitting, I can care for up to two pets per day, always ensuring each one receives the attention, love, and space they deserve. We also love celebrating pets! 🥳 If your furry friend has a special day —like a birthday or adoption anniversary— please let me know. I enjoy hosting small “puppy parties” and making homemade pupcakes, decorating the space to make their stay extra special. 🎂🐾 📸 I also love photographing pets during their stay and sharing some of those joyful moments on Rover or social media, showing happy, everyday activities. If you’d prefer that I don’t post photos of your pet, please just let me know —I’ll fully respect your wishes. 💕 💻 Since I work from home, I’m not available for in-person meet & greets, as I often have meetings or need to be on call, and I wouldn’t be able to give you the full attention you deserve. I also made this decision because most of my apartment is carpeted, and some people prefer not to remove their shoes when entering. In our home, we don’t wear shoes indoors, keeping the environment clean and safe for the pets. At the entrance, we have a paw-cleaning station, where every time the dogs go out or come back in, we wash their paws with dog-safe soap and water before letting them walk freely inside the apartment. I’m happy to share details about the soap I use, and if your pet has any allergies or needs a specific type of shampoo, please let me know so I can use their own product and ensure their comfort and safety. 🧼🐾 It’s also very important to let me know if your dog has any food allergies or follows a strict diet. Sometimes a small piece of fruit, a bit of cheese, or a treat dogs love 🧀🍎 might sneak its way in —and I always want to make sure everything your pet receives is completely safe. 💕🐶 For Drop-Off and Pick-Up, you’re welcome to come right up to my door to say goodbye to your furry friend, or if you prefer, you can sit on the porch for a few minutes to have a calm and loving farewell. The same applies when you come for pick-up —I want both you and your pet to feel relaxed and supported during that transition. 💛🐾 🐾 I’m also very flexible with schedules and family needs. If you live nearby, I can offer free pick-up for your pet. If you’re a bit farther away, I can still help with transportation for a small, low fee, just to cover travel costs. I’m also flexible with drop-off and pick-up times —you can set them through the app, but if something unexpected comes up or you need to adjust, please don’t stress! I completely understand. If your dog is with me for day sitting and something comes up at the last minute where they need to stay overnight, don’t worry —these things happen, and I’ll gladly make sure they’re safe and comfortable for the night. 🌙🐾 And if your booking was last-minute and you didn’t have time to buy food or any items your pet might need for their stay, I can take care of that for you and do the shopping myself to make sure your furry friend has everything they need. 🛒💕 If, for any reason, your pet needs to extend their stay, I can often make exceptions when possible, even if Rover shows no availability. My priority is to keep everything stress-free for both you and your pet. 💕 That said, I’m happy to schedule a 15-minute virtual tour of my home, send videos of the community and the dog park, and meet through a video call before your pet’s stay. This way, you can feel completely comfortable and confident before leaving your furry family member with me. 💕 Thank you so much for considering my services! I can’t wait to meet you and your beloved pet. 🌿🐶 I work from home full-time, so your pet will always have company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. I’m available on weekdays, weekends, and even for last-minute bookings, giving you peace of mind knowing your furry friend is always cared for and never left alone. I live in a safe, pet-friendly community with its own dog park, perfect for daily walks, exercise, and playtime. At home, your pet will meet Athenas, our sweet and friendly dog who loves both dogs and cats. If needed, I can provide crate space or separate areas to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.

Our pups had a wonderful time with Leslie. I knew they would when we did a meet-n-greet. She is a loving dog person and they knew it right away. Her home is beautiful and accommodates dogs - lots of toys, blanket to snuggle in or rest next to Leslie on sofa. Backyard is big and fenced in - a doggies dream backyard. Leslie sent fun pictures and kept us up-to-date on their potty breaks. She walked the pups on a walking trails near her home which my dogs loved. Hopefully next time they will get to see the Canadian geese which visit the local pond regularly. We are so excited that Leslie has started Rover sitting — she is a gem and we are already signing up for another daycare sitting. 🙏🐾❤️

Deb was absolutely wonderful! She was super responsive and agreed to a last minute request for doggy daycare, which was a lifesaver. She shared pictures throughout the day of my dog Fae having a blast with Deb’s labs, who were incredibly sweet and playful. Fae didn’t even want to get in the car to leave. We got to bring a very happy, very tired dog back home 😊. I really hope that Deb can watch Fae again in the future!

We loved all the photos, and we could tell she had fun because she slept like a puppy when she came home. We will definitely see you again!

About: I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes and have 6 years of experience making sure pets stay happy and healthy while their owners are away. I have a ton of energy for long walks, park trips, and playing fetch for high-energy dogs, but I also can be calm and relaxed for senior dogs. Because I study at home, my schedule is very flexible, which is perfect for house-sitting! I can spend the majority of my day at your home, ensuring your pet is never left alone for long periods. I’m available for overnight stays during the week and on weekends, and I make it a priority to stick to your pet's specific walking and feeding routine so their day feels totally normal while you're away. I take the responsibility of staying in your home very seriously. I am extremely diligent about home security—always double-checking that doors and windows are locked and that your pet is secure before I step out. I pride myself on leaving your home exactly as I found it (or cleaner!). I’m also a very frequent communicator; I love sending daily photo updates and quick 'check-ins' so you never have to wonder how things are going.

Sadly, my pup passed away earlier this year and while I am not ready to get another dog of my own, I am excited to help care for yours and give you peace of mind while you are away. I have had little and big dogs in my life and am open to all sizes. Your dog does need to get along well with children as my kids love to play with dogs. They are also used to having a senior dog around as our dog aged so they also know when to give a dog space and be gentle. I work from home most days and your dog will have free rain of our house. I work from home most days so will be around to take your dog for walks as they need them. Your dog will have free rain of our house and we have a nice back outside area to walk or run around in. We also have a beautiful nature trail right behind our neighborhood. I love to spend time playing or just chilling and petting/loving on your dog. I love walks outside and if your dog likes to play with kids we have 5 of them that love dogs. They are also used to senior dogs so know how to be gentle. We do have stairs so your dog needs to be comfortable on stairs or small enough to carry. I will follow whatever your food/med/walk routines are.

About: Nice to meet you! I’m a college student at JMU and have taken care of different animals all my life, and often get asked by family and friends to pet sit-caring from animals as small as hamsters to larger dogs like german shepherds. I am very used to walking large dogs, as I have grown up with german shepherds all my life, and I am very used to taking care of animals with disabilities or special dietary needs. For example, my childhood dog had a pancreatic disorder where I fed her a special diet and am accustomed to carefully following directions and making sure everyone is safe and healthy. I absolutely love cats as well, I have a cat named Moss who is very very spoiled and loved. I am a very clean and responsible person who can be trusted to watch over your loved one and home. 🩵I am offering discounted rates for clients looking for daily recurring dog walks. (For example: 1 walk a day five days a week, but can be more than 1 ofcourse depending on your needs) I understand the importance of dogs getting their daily exercise in and want to be helpful for someone who’s understandably on the fence about scheduling something that can be a costly service. Please feel free to message me about getting this set up if you’re interested, I want to help out anyone I can.🩵 Some things that will be firmly and vehemently followed in my care: -Doors will be verified locked every time I leave, I understand how important it is to keep the home secure and your pet safe. -Your pet will NOT be lost under my care (I have seen the horror stories as well and can’t even fully fathom how awful that would be to experience) -I will follow housekeeping tasks requested by the home owner -I will strictly follow both household and pet care guidelines instructed by the owner. Thank you so much for your time! 🩵 I am a college student home for the summer so I am very available, please don’t hesitate in reaching out so we can coordinate a schedule! :) I will care for the pets and home with the upmost amount of care and respect. Im very concerned about making sure the pet is comfortable and safe at all times, and keeping the home very clean. I understand how stressful it can be to trust someone to take care of your loved ones and home, and I want to reassure you that I am very responsible, attentive, and communicative throughout the entire process. I will follow any specific instructions you provide and am happy to give regular updates, whether that’s photos, messages, or calls, to give you peace of mind while you’re away. Your pets will be treated like family, and your home will be left just as you found it. I'm here to make your time away as smooth and stress free as possible for both you and your pets. :)

Cannot recommend Leslie enough! She took such amazing care of Cash. From the moment she met him at the meet and greet thru the stay I’ve never felt more comfortable trusting my pup with someone. Cash loved her spacious back yard, lounging around, and the long walks/runs. She even had a special treat for him since he was staying with her during Christmas. I had to say “Let’s go home” three times because he wasn’t ready to leave. So thankful for Leslie’s attentiveness, communication, and care!

Maria was very nice, communicative, and took great care of my two dogs during their stay with her. She has a nice spacious house and a fenced in backyard which is a plus. We will definitely use her in the future.

This was the first time leaving our puppy with anybody. He is seven year old husky mix who has the all of the husky quirks but who is a very sweet dog. While with Jaime & Mike I saw that the whole family really looked after Max. During our time away they updated us with texts and pictures, and when we arrived to pick him up he was happily walking outside with Mike. He had a bed set up close to everyone so he wouldn’t feel alone. I would definitely leave him there again, you can tell they really like dogs and that makes a difference

Our golden retriever Cody had a great stay with Stacie! He came home very happy after spending spring break week with her! Stacie treated him as her own and he had fun romping in her large, fenced in yard, with the other dogs who were staying with her. Stacie sent us updates and lots of photos daily. She was very accommodating to our travel schedule and we couldn’t be happier with her. We will definitely call her for our next trip!

Great experience boarding my dog with this family! I met up with them prior to boarding and after talking with them, I could tell this was going to be a great match! My dog is high energy and it’s really important for me to know that she will have fun while she’s staying somewhere. This family understood this and really went above and beyond to give me peace of mind while I was away. I could tell from the photos and videos that my pup was cared for the way I would care for her. I highly recommend and will be using them again myself in the future.

Absolutely outstanding sitters. Took care of my girl like their own. Very well organized and communicative. They clearly love dogs and immediately showed that to my pup. I am fortunate to have found them and look forward to working with them again!

Kristen is delightful and her love of dogs was readily apparent from the moment we met her. She sent photos of Benny to assure us he was doing fine and making himself comfortable in her lovely home. The fenced spaces outside were perfect for our little “escape artist.” We highly recommend Kristen for your pampered pet’s vacation.

We have a very energetic pug who we left in Corey’s care for 5 days. We received photo/video updates daily and he got along super well with his 3 dogs. It was evident Corey really loves dogs; he was very understanding about accidents our dog made while he was there. Thanks so much Corey!

William took excellent care of my pup Iris while we were out of town for a short get away. William and his goldendoodle Maui were great hosts and Iris came home wore out from fun and playing. She was one happy dog.

Caroline and their family provided an excellent stay for Duke. Caroline was extremely patient with all my details and instructions about Duke, including his medication . I felt Duke was in good hands when I was away. They were very flexible, communicating frequently and overall it an excellent provider. I would strongly recommend them.

Andrew took great care of our dog Apollo. I was apprehensive about using Rover for the first time, but Andrew quickly eased my concerns with his responsive messages and meet & greet with our dog. Apollo looked very content and well cared for when we picked him up - we’d definitely book with Andrew again and would recommend him to my friends!

If I could give Colleen 6 stars, Ace and I would. Colleen treats Ace like he is one of her own. He loves seeing her every time she comes over for a walk and while I miss him when I am away for business trips, I don't worry one moment. Great communication and 110% dependable.

I usually leave my dog, Ginger, with a familiar sitter, but they were unavailable this time — and I am so glad we found Tatiana instead! She was truly a godsend. From day one, she was warm, responsive, and professional. I received daily updates and adorable photos, which gave me complete peace of mind throughout Ginger’s stay. Ginger looked happy, relaxed, and well-loved when I picked her up, and it was clear she had a wonderful time. She even made new friends with Tatiana’s dog and cat — which says a lot, because Ginger is a bit picky with her buddies! Thank you so much, Tatiana, for taking such great care of Ginger. I will absolutely book with you again and recommend you to anyone looking for a loving and reliable sitter!
