“Paul & Terri took such good care of our dog, and communicated frequently and sent many pictures too. He was able to go outside frequently which makes him very happy.”

“Kaitlin was awesome. She took our dog on short notice, over a busy week. Really appreciative of her taking her on such short notice. Sent pictures often, and let us know how she was doing. Our dog was nervous in a strange home, but she was understanding of that.”

“She was absolutely great with our pup. He was well taken care of and she kept me updated with pictures and videos through out our time away. I highly recommend her.”

“Lyra and Scott are great!! My Aussie Beau took to them very quickly and felt right at home immediately. When I got stuck out of town for longer than expected they were completely understanding and happy to help me out. Will definitely book with them again! :)”

“Ellysia is the best! My pups had the greatest time with her and her family. Updated daily with pictures and activities. We will definitely be using her again and recommend her hands down.”


“Wow! Where do we begin for Ms. Jay! From the moment I reached out to her (just a few days before our trip) she has been SO communicative. We were on a time crunch to find someone we trusted with our pups because this was the first time we had no choice but to leave our babies with a stranger. As soon as we started talking I felt at ease with her watching our three dogs. A couple of days after finding out she was available we set up a meet and greet so our pups felt comfortable with her and her home by the time we dropped them off. As soon as they met her we could tell they were comfortable and almost didn't want to leave her house. From the moment we dropped them off (which was easy and smooth because she has a routine in place after doing it for so many years) we received videos and pictures constantly, everyday! That was extremely comforting to see them having fun, getting cuddles and pets and meeting new friends throughout the week. She made us feel comfortable with giving one of our dogs his medications and offered to clean our bulldogs face if it got too dirty. The most generous thing Ms. Jay did for us was give us a price adjustment for having three dogs because she genuinely loves to pet set and understands it can get expensive with three dogs if you book an actual boarding place. She was SUPER accommodating with our schedule and hers for drop off and pick up. She had their stuff packed up and ready outside by the time we picked them up. It's a definite YES we will be using Ms. Jay in the future. We all LOVE her! - Lauren and Kaylin!”
“Kelsey is very flexible and responsive. My dog looked sad to leave! Oddly enough, we are excited to drop our dog off for our next vacation because we knot she'll have a great time. We highly recommend Kelsey!”

“Gretchen was awesome! She took care of our puppy and shared photos daily. She asked all the right questions prior to the drop-off and was super friendly. I would definitely recommend her to others and wouldn't hesitate to book with her again.”

“Having NEVER left my puppies before, I was hesitant and nervous to do so. Shania eased my concerns from the very beginning. I was literally in contact with her multiple times before my puppies were even in her care. I'm happy to say, ALL WENT WELL!!! I highly recommend Shania and can't wait to use her services again.”

“2nd time booking with Teona and Louelyn. I didn’t worry at all about our precious basset hound while we were away visiting family. These two love animals and will treat your dog like their own. They have a very clean home!”


“Shelly is fantastic! She watched my 2 big dogs on short notice. Took the time to understand their temperament and still was able to win over my Airedale mix. I never once worried about them. She sent photos daily. It looked like they were on vacation too! I would definitely recommend Shelly and will return to her for any next vacations.”

“This was my first time ever using Rover, and Amy and Grant made it such a great experience! They were absolutely amazing with my dog Oscar—super communicative, informative, and clearly very caring. I got regular updates and photos, and it looked like Oscar was having the best time. He came home happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. I could tell they treated him like part of the family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Highly recommend!”


“We had a wonderful experience with Leidy! She took excellent care of our senior dog, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was obvious our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for ❤️ We would absolutely book with Leidy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“Kayce and her husband were fantastic. They were very flexible on the drop off and pick up times with us. Kayce did a great job with simply providing us daily updates on Oreo’s well being! Oreo appeared to have a had great time, we will definitely be booking again!”

“Very professional and practical. The communication was punctual and timely. I was very pleased to see our dog having such a lovely time during my time away. Highly recommend Anita for your Rover needs.”

“I was extremely satisfied with the care Bentley received while with Amanda and her family. Her fur babies were very welcoming to Bentley and I felt he was happy with his new friends. To my surprise, they went on a “field trip” where they were allowed to run off leash and smell and play in a very large confined space . I worried he would not want to leave with me and leave his friends behind. I highly recommend Amanda and will definitely use her in the future!!”

“Rhianna took great care of our very shy, skittish cat. He usually hides when new people enter the apartment. She was able to find him each day and even sent me pictures! I’m happy with the care she gave our cat, Toast!”


“Joey watched our dog Layla for the second time and we could tell she was happy to see him. He did all expected task and more. Our Layla has been picky about food lately so he made sure accommodated for her to complete her meals. We will continue to request Joey for Layla.”


About: Hello! I have been around dogs, and owned them, my entire life. Whether your pup is big or small, young or old, I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I currently have two friendly mixed breed female dogs who get along well with both dogs and cats. We love going on walks, taking car rides, and spending quality time with our four legged friends. I offer a variety of services, including feedings, medication administration, doggy daycare, drop in visits, walks, and more. I am flexible, dependable, and easy to work with, and I am always happy to accommodate special requests whenever possible. I do have three children, so I ask that any pets staying in my home are comfortable around kids. My children have been raised around animals and understand how to respectfully approach and interact with pets that are not our own. Over the years, I have provided pet and house sitting services for many families, and I have several references who would be happy to speak about my reliability, trustworthiness, and the quality of care I provide. I understand that your pets are part of your family, and I will care for them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your canine companion(s)! As a teacher, I am home for the summer, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. Your pup will rarely be left alone, and if I do have any planned outings during their stay, I will always let you know in advance so you can feel completely comfortable. I also keep an extra kennel available for dogs who prefer having a quiet space of their own to relax, nap, or unwind. Whether your dog enjoys being part of the action or appreciates a little personal space, I strive to create a safe, comfortable, and stress free environment where they can feel right at home. I do not have a fenced in yard but we live on 5 acres with plenty of space to run around and exercise if your companion is staying at my home.

“Peyton was Great!! She made time to stop by in advance tomake sure me and Bentley were comfortable with her. It nice to walk her through the steps needed. She was very accommodating and super sweet. Very good communication and no issues. Bentley loved her and we'll definitely use Peyton again in the future.”

“Avery was fantastic! Super friendly and a great communicator. I really appreciated all the photos and updates that I got while I was away. I’d absolutely recommend her and will be booking with her again.”

“KELLY IS SO AWESOME!!!! MY BABY TRIGGER LOVED HER AND SHE RETURNED SHOWED HIM THAT HE WAS AND IS LOVED... SHE WAS ON TIME AND DID EVERYTHING THAT I ASKED OF HER WHILE TAKING CARE OF MY BABY.

“We’ve had a wonderful experience with Jared! He is always very flexible with scheduling, which I truly appreciate, and he consistently sends photos throughout the day that give me peace of mind. Bella absolutely loves going there—especially the trips to the park to play and burn off energy. She also adores children, so she gets extra excited on days when she can spend time with his daughter. It’s clear she feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend Jared to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

“Jessica is the best! She accepted my request with less than 24 hours notice. She then worked with me when I needed to extend his pickup time. I always know that my puppy is in good hands with her and will have the time of his life running around. She will always be my number one pick for my puppy”

“Very genuine person, got down on brownie's level to engage with her, brownie was happy and well taken care off. Abby worked with me and my schedule, I am grateful that brownie has a home away from home”

“Eliane and her husband were more than accommodating. I have a 12 year old dog who struggles with anxiety so finding a family to take care of my baby was a bit stressful. Upon messaging Elaine about her availability she immediately proposed a meet and greet. I was nervous Sepia wouldn’t get along with her own two dogs but it went wonderfully! Elaine and her husband were flexible with my tentative schedule and offered to host sepia for the night when I found out I needed to leave extremely early the next morning. With my crazy work schedule, I will 100% go straight to Elaine and Steven. Sepia clearly made herself at home ? and was spoiled with treats and endless love.”
“Sandra was fantastic! We needed to leave our dog Samwise with somebody during an appointment because he gets separation anxiety in new places and she was flexible and very communicative.”

“Christine was fantastic. We are from out of town and always nervous leaving our pups somewhere strange, but Christine treated our dogs like her own. Definitely recommend. And are scheduling our next visit for the puppies..”
“Jeanette was great! She was able to accommodate Romeo in a very short time frame, and had to wake up early for the drop off. She kept me updated and Romeo loved her! Overall great experience.”

“Sabrina was extremely accommodating as I needed day care coverage extremely last minute. She allowed the my pup & her dogs to get comfortable with one another and sent me updates throughout the day without prompting. I truly appreciate her kindness and expertise and will definitely book with her again.”

“Mary was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! Yesterday she took care of our dogs all day during our wedding. She checked in on them three times and even delivered our dogs to our wedding venue so our brother could walk our dogs down the aisle during the ceremony. She hung out for the wedding, and then delivered them back to our hotel. She was so pleasant, followed every recommendation and request we made, and our dogs were so well cared for! She even went above and beyond walking the dogs for a long time before and after the wedding! If we lived locally in Newport News we would DEFINITELY us her again. I highly recommend her and her services!”

About: Hi my names Amadi. Thanks for taking a second to check out my profile! I have a little over 15 years of experience in training dogs, helping with socialization skills, and general caretaking. Currently I work from home, a light schedule as I’m testing to obtain another specialty license. In my daily life I used to foster dogs for a rescue. Most of my fosters came from very rough beginnings and had many social and/or anxiety issues but we have been able to overcome them💙 With that being said I totally understand how some dogs are unsure of new people and I’m 100% willing to take the time needed to get to know your fur baby. I do currently have an iguana in his own enclosure and I have extensive reptile knowledge and I’m willing to assist with those as well. I currently have a light schedule that I work from home, so I am available for a lot of pet care needs. I do frequent bathroom visits play, and meal time. I am 100% about safety first. I will not accept any new dogs that will put anyone else in jeopardy. Although I have experience in housing a large number of dogs from my time fostering out in Goochland, and my time working in a doggy daycare, I do not wish to take on a large number of dogs at any one time.

About: Energetic person looking to take care of energetic dogs. I love animals and love to take care of them. I’ve owned dogs my entire life. I’ve had a variety of breeds like Chihuahua, German Shepherds, Beagle, Terrier, Retrievers. Many of my pets were abused and shelter animals. I have experience with both large and small dogs. I’m comfortable with Mastiffs and Rottweilers. Most dogs love me even ones that are typically shy around strangers. You won't be sorry hiring me. I will take care of your dogs like they are my own. I think they can sense when a good person is around. I think dogs are one of the smartest and most intuitive animals around. I love to play with dogs and love taking them on walks.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover, and caring for pets has been a part of my life for years. From playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience, I know how to adjust my care to fit each pet’s personality and needs. I have hands-on experience with feeding, walking, administering medications, crate training, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. Friends and family often rely on me to watch their dogs and cats, and I treat every animal like they’re my own—plenty of cuddles, playtime, and attention included! Whether your pet is full of energy or just enjoys lounging around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for at all times. Pet care is just a natural part of my day. I’m used to building my routine around feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love. I make sure pets get their exercise, attention, and cuddles every single day, because I know how much those little things matter. Each week, I also set time aside for things like brushing, extra play, or whatever makes them happiest. Taking care of animals doesn’t feel like a chore to me — it’s something I truly enjoy and look forward to. I care for pets like they’re part of the family! In my home, they’ll have a safe, cozy space with plenty of love, playtime, and snuggles. In your home, I follow their normal routine so they feel comfortable and cared for—whether that’s walks, meals, meds, or cuddle time. Every pet is unique, and I make sure they get the attention and affection they deserve. 💕🐾

“She was absolutely great with our pup. He was well taken care of and she kept me updated with pictures and videos through out our time away. I highly recommend her.”

“Lyra and Scott are great!! My Aussie Beau took to them very quickly and felt right at home immediately. When I got stuck out of town for longer than expected they were completely understanding and happy to help me out. Will definitely book with them again! :)”

“Ellysia is the best! My pups had the greatest time with her and her family. Updated daily with pictures and activities. We will definitely be using her again and recommend her hands down.”

“Having NEVER left my puppies before, I was hesitant and nervous to do so. Shania eased my concerns from the very beginning. I was literally in contact with her multiple times before my puppies were even in her care. I'm happy to say, ALL WENT WELL!!! I highly recommend Shania and can't wait to use her services again.”

“2nd time booking with Teona and Louelyn. I didn’t worry at all about our precious basset hound while we were away visiting family. These two love animals and will treat your dog like their own. They have a very clean home!”


“Shelly is fantastic! She watched my 2 big dogs on short notice. Took the time to understand their temperament and still was able to win over my Airedale mix. I never once worried about them. She sent photos daily. It looked like they were on vacation too! I would definitely recommend Shelly and will return to her for any next vacations.”


“We had a wonderful experience with Leidy! She took excellent care of our senior dog, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was obvious our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for ❤️ We would absolutely book with Leidy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“Kayce and her husband were fantastic. They were very flexible on the drop off and pick up times with us. Kayce did a great job with simply providing us daily updates on Oreo’s well being! Oreo appeared to have a had great time, we will definitely be booking again!”

“Very professional and practical. The communication was punctual and timely. I was very pleased to see our dog having such a lovely time during my time away. Highly recommend Anita for your Rover needs.”

“I was extremely satisfied with the care Bentley received while with Amanda and her family. Her fur babies were very welcoming to Bentley and I felt he was happy with his new friends. To my surprise, they went on a “field trip” where they were allowed to run off leash and smell and play in a very large confined space . I worried he would not want to leave with me and leave his friends behind. I highly recommend Amanda and will definitely use her in the future!!”


“My dog Ceasar let's me know when he enjoys his stay when I board him over night. It was clear that he enjoyed his stay with Alexandria and her family. She provided photos to allow us to see first hand that he was okay. He's spoiled and I could tell that he was pampered because when we returned home he was relaxed.”

“Alison was amazing with our pup Tilly! she was very welcoming and kind! she kept us updated with texts and pictures which was very nice and thoughtful! Tilly definitely had a blast in her care and she didnt want to leave!!! Alison was also very accommodating when we had flight delays which was super helpful. we will definitely book again! my husband and I trust her 100%!”
