“Lucky took great care of our two greyhounds. They were returned to us happy and healthy, and we got many updates and pictures during our trip! It was a stress-free experience; highly recommend!”
“This couple is amazing! I am a first time user of Rover and couldn’t be happier. They sent multiple pictures and videos throughout the weekend. My dog did so well there with their dog and cats. They truly cared for my dog and showed her love. I will definitely be using them again.”
“Our three dogs had a wonderful time at Radka's and Jim's home. They stayed 3 days and 2 nights. I could tell they were happy and well-loved from the many photos Radka sent us during their stay. We are thrilled with this experience and plan to book with them again next time we have to be out of town.”
“Julie was great! She was able to board our dog last minute and had a bunch of items on hand so we didn't have to bring a ton. She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures. She also gave some good advice afterwards to help with boarding next time”
“Adam is a natural, per Cooper. We knew the moment we met him that Cooper was in good hands. Cooper took to him immediately and made himself at home. We got him back last night and Cooper was calm and happy. Thanks Adam!!!”
“Gulmira was so great with our shy girl Sophie! She sent plenty of updates and was very communicative, helping us feel very comfortable leaving Sophie there for the first time! It’s clear Sophie was loved so much while she was there too and she was also exercised very well, got plenty of walks and time to explore, and made some doggy friends along the way. We are so pleased with the stay and could not recommend Gulmira more! She’s definitely a great choice if you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and is kind and patient with animals.”
“We did a test run overnighter with Honey and it was successful. I'm looking forward to Colleen and her family being able to take good care of my pup while I'm away. I feel totally at peace with them and their care for my companion. Thank you Colleen”
“Miranda is absolutely PHENOMENAL!!! She took care of our dog Archie last-minute (for the first time, too) and was incredibly kind, helpful, and constantly updated me while watching him. Archie had such a good time, he didn't want to leave! We also had to pick him up past midnight on our way back, and Miranda was extremely accommodating and, again, was just amazing overall. Her dog Crush was also super sweet and has become Archie's first best friend. We will absolutely be using her services again, and I highly recommend others to do the same!!!”
“This was Sully's third time staying with Cassie. And, it certainly won't be his last! Cassie is absolutely wonderful with Sully and all the pets in her care. When we are out of town, I don't think twice about how Sully is doing as I know he's in great hands! It is such a relief not to worry. Cassie also send lots of videos and pictures which always make me smile as I know Sully is being loved and having so much fun. If you are looking for an amazing pet sitter, look no further! Cassie is amazing!”
“Laura and her family were great. She sent daily updates, responded quickly, and was able to work with our schedule. Brady looked happy and well cared for. Would definitely board with her again!”
“Marvin responded very quickly for a last minute request and was able to take care of my bully. He was communicative sent great pictures and gave him great walks. My guy came home happy. It was assuring to know he was still taken care of. 10/10 highly recommend”
“We love Damacia, and so does our Onyx. She has taken care of him since he was a young puppy and has even provided insight/suggestions in things to add into his daily routine. He has grown a lot and LOVES her so much.”
“Christina is an awesome dog sitter! Super nice and caring. She kept us in the loop with updates, pics, and videos while we were away. The backyard is a game-changer, especially for our lively Aussie and big Old English Sheepdog. Thumbs up for keeping our pups happy! And we will definitely book with her again! 🐾”
“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!”

“Judy is the sweetest and most accommodating person ever! She was so kind to my boy and kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout his stay. It gave me so much peace knowing he was in good hands. He and her dog got along so well it was adorable seeing them together! I’m so glad he had a friend to stay with, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“Paula was a wonderful caregiver for our Dolly! She gave her lots and lots of love, communicated often, and paid careful attention to her to make sure she was adjusting to our absence. We felt totally comfortable during our long vacation and will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Laura has been my senior cat’s sitter multiple times now! I know he is in wonderful hands when I leave him with her. She’s reliable, down the earth, punctual, and her written recaps of my cat’s day just make me laugh and smile! I already have her booked for the next trip!”
“Nicole has sat for us on numerous occasions . She is always on time, thorough and attentive to our cats. We appreciate her honoring any requests and specific directions we ask of her and her post-visit notes and pictures are great to see. Our cats enjoy her visits and we thoroughly trust her!”

“Colleen is great! She’s very reliable, kind, and really takes time with your animals to show them some love while you’re gone. We feel very safe leaving our cats in her care!”
“We had Christina come back for another pet sitting stint after we just had her come the previous week. She's great! Very detail oriented and the cats LOVE her (even our spicy cat). She communicates with us very well and even took out trash to the garage, which we didn't even ask her to do, but we appreciate it! We will definitely use her every time we need a pet sitter!”
“Brian is very accommodating and great with all of our animals! Brought our trash cans to the street for morning pickup, took the mail inside, and was very flexible with last minute schedule changes. Will definitely be reaching out to him again!”
About: I grew up in our farm owning & taking care of all kinds of animals. Fostered cats/dogs with Humane Societies in different states before we finally settled after military life. Growing up on a farm surrounded by animals, I’ve developed strong intuition to sense pets' unique needs; if they are feeling sick, anxious, etc. I can follow with your pet’s medical needs/routine. I’m home all day except for quick errands hence pets under my care get lots of human interactions, cuddles & play time. Frequent potty breaks. I believe in holistic lifestyle hence I use pet friendly; no harsh chemical cleaning supplies. Hygiene is super important to me. Old habits from my hospital volunteering days + I’m a clean freak as per my family 😆 I'm a homemaker. I enjoy taking care of my indoor plants, garden, and our mini goldendoodle Hazel. I'm home majority of the day; hence your fur babies will get to have lots of cuddles, love, and playtime in our big fenced in yard. We have lovely, clean & spacious home; hence pups get to have a lot of space/freedom to roam. Or retrieve if they want some space. No choking hazard toys. I love taking pictures, videos & update with your precious pooch. You can FaceTime your pets if it’s extended stay or as per need. I love making pets stay as comfortable as possible & giving peace of mind to owners. As a pet owner myself, I know how much small things matter! I've a huge fenced in yard, Hazel, our super friendly mini golden doodle would give a company to any dog & make them feel comfortable. Lots of play, cuddles & free to roam. However, I've an ability to gate off the rooms if it's needed, or as per request. I live near the lake & take my dog to daily AM/PM walks. As a pet owner, I know the anxiety of trying to find a safe home to fur babies, someone who'd love/care for them as their own.
“Melissa communicates in a way that always helps me relax when I travel. She keeps me updated on funny stories about my cats as well as any concerns or observations. I appreciate her honesty and dependability.”
“Tom was a superstar with our newly adopted, very shy 6 month old puppy. We only had the pup 2 weeks when Tom agreed to help us with a “let out” for crate training. This was not an easy task as the pup was still adjusting to his new home. Tom had patience and understanding with our pup and we appreciated it more than he knows. Tom was trustworthy and very attentive to the needs of our pup. His communication was stellar as well. We highly recommend Tom!!!!”
“Jacqueline left me notes and some photos of my cat while I was in England for two weeks. She gave Venus medicine every day, made sure to give her affection, and left the cat area neat and clean. I will certainly use her again when I have to leave my cat.”
“We had a long trip and Lara took care of our two cats. Our kitties can be shy sometimes but Lara won them over and they were obviously happy with her company and care, we certainly were. Our home was all spit shine when we returned. Thankyou so much Lara.”
“Kiara patiently let our timid cat Jake get used to seeing her, and by the 3rd day they were good friends! She took lots of great pics and sent very detailed descriptions of her day. Excellent experience - thank you Kiara!”
“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.”
“We felt very reassured leaving for so long knowing that Eileen and her husband Rick were there for our kits. We rarely if ever get to vacation together since it is a hassle with some of the kits having separate food/feeding schedules due to medical issues. Eileen and Rick have incredibly positive and caring attitudes and are very conscientious. They were great communicators while we were in the middle of an ocean with notes on and photos of the sometimes-elusive clowder of cats! We highly recommend and would love to rebook with them again in the future!”
“Julia was absolutely wonderful! We had her sitting for our very needy cat while we were away for 5 days with our dog. She was super accommodating to our cat’s quirks and our requests. We will definitely prevail on Julia’s services again to include having her look after our elderly dog - she was marvelous, caring and very thoughtful!”

“Griff loves G! She gives him lots of attention, affection, and always makes him feel part of the family. Griff really appreciates the sniffing adventures she plans for him. Thanks G for providing my pup with great care and love!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life. I am looking forward to opportunities to care for your dog(s) or cat(s) while you are away and love them like they were my own. I have a fenced in yard and live in a wonderful neighborhood with lots of walking trails. I have three children, ages 10, 12, and 14 that grew up with dogs and learned how to be loving and respectful to animals. I’m a high school teacher so I’m able to be home during the summer and school holidays. My routine includes a morning, afternoon and an evening walk after dinner. The fenced backyard provides opportunities for exercise outside of walks. I follow your pets normal feeding schedule and will only provide the food and treats that you provide to avoid any allergy or food intolerance concerns. On school days, my husband is typically working from home so there is usually someone home without long periods of being left home alone. Pets are cared for as part of the family and receive lots of love and attention.
About: I'm a long time pet owner familiar with all sorts of animals including dogs, turtles, fish, birds and reptiles. I'm happy to help care for your puppies, senior animals and animals with health issues including animals which require special medication or shots. I work full time from my home but I am available early mornings, lunch time and after working hours to take care of your pets. Let me know what you need and we can figure out something which works. I'm flexible. We do like to travel so I may not always be around but when I am, I'm happy to help. We have had several dogs through the years, big, medium and small. Love them all. I'm big into running and getting outdoors so I'm happy to take you pups for long walks or even a short jog. We also have a house full of other animals including fish, turtles and previously birds. I'm happy to help out with all types of animals, feathered, scaled or furry.
“They are so caring and patient. My dog can be shy around unknown people and environments and they took the extra mile to let her ease in and get comfortable. Loved receiving all the pictures and videos of her stay. Can't wait for our next visit! Thank you so much for your care.”
“Adam and Beau is a match made in heaven! Beau apparently played it cool during his visit; he had “checked out” Adam’s home on our initial visit and settled in pretty easily during his longer stay.”
“Josephine was absolutely lovely with our 2 pups! Sammy & Sylvie had the best time with her & her husband! We were sent lots of pics & msgs through the day, & she was incredibly accommodating with our puppies’ needs! Sammy & Sylvie can’t wait to come back again! We highly recommend Josephine… thank you so much for caring for our fur babies! ☺️”

As of January 2025 we will have a pup of our own so any pups we watch must be good with kids and other dogs. We will be opening up dates in 2025 once our pup is fully vaccinated I work from home full time and set my own schedule so I can prioritize walks, playtime and spending quality time with your fur baby We have a very large fenced yard in a great neighborhood. We have three younger children who are excellent with all animals. We will have a pup joining us in January of 2025
“Lori and her husband were kind enough to watch my two fur babies, Sammy & Sylvie, in a pinch. My pups adore them & we are so grateful that they are in great hands every time. Thank you so much Lori!”
“Morgan was great with Buddy. She took wonderful care of him. He is a large dog with a great heart. She was able to take him on last minute and really saved the day. I wouldn’t hesitate a minute letting her take care of Buddy again. Thank You so much”
About: I have loved animals my entire life and have had more than one family pet from the day I was born. I worked in veterinary care for a good bit of time, and I have been trusted by many families to care for their animals while they were away on trips. I am comfortable giving medicine, working on obedience, and giving more snuggles than your pup will know what to do with. My husband works from home 3-4 days a week, so your dog would have many opportunities to go outside and to be loved on. I am available Monday through Friday for lunch time check-ins and potty breaks, and I'm available for walks after 5pm Monday through Friday. We could also accommodate over-night boarding any day of the week, as long as we do not have a previously scheduled weekend away. While I do not have a fenced in yard, our family loves to be outside and take walks as much as possible through out the day. We also have our energetic 5 year old dog, Maverick, to keep your dog company through out the day and engage in play. We have ample space in our home for a crate. Our daughter also loves to throw the ball and makes sure her puppy feels loved all the time.
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats since I was a kiddo. Currently we have two spoiled dogs and two sweet cats. I take my two dogs on a mile or two walk every day. I started my own pet sitting business in my 20’s after working for a small pet company. I also was working FT with adults with disabilities. I have cared for a wide variety of animals even giving a diabetic cat shots and caring for a blind and a deaf dog. I’ve also had the opportunity to take care of rabbits, birds and even a very social ferret. Once I became busy raising my own family, I stopped working FT but continued watching friends’ and neighbors’ animals on the side. I’m the type of person who stops to pet other people’s dogs when I’m out on a walk. ❤️ My husband and I have 5 kids, two of which live at home. I’m also a grandma with a second baby otw! As a family we’ve always had cats and dogs as well as guinea pigs, gerbils, turtle and a lizard. I’m currently working very part-time so have lots of time to love on your animals. I’m available most days and on the weekends as well. I’d love to walk your dogs and/or play with them in your backyard and hang out with them while you’re away. I also would love to give your kitties lots of attention.
About: Cared for domesticated and farm animals for 15 years, experienced with seniors and special needs. Our animals are our family, and it is my mission to see that they are treated so while in my care. I offer attentive, around the clock care, whether your pet needs structured play, gentle companionship, or just a calm, reliable presence. I meet wherever your pet needs! Your pet’s safety and emotional care are my top priorities. I offer a fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time, but animals are never left outside alone. My home is shared with two cats and a small flock of chickens, all secured in their own spaces. My dog Pacha, is great at helping new dogs feel like part of the pack and always ready to greet a new friend. I treat each guest like an individual with their own boundaries, routines, and needs. Your pet is encouraged to make themselves at home, but I also provide a calm, separate space within the main living quarters if they need quiet time to decompress. Whether your pet is energetic or shy, social or reserved, this is a place where they’ll feel protected, understood, and loved like family.
About: Lifelong Pet Lover with Years of Experience Hi, I’ve been around pets my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I started walking and feeding my family dogs at just 7 years old, twice a day, making sure they had plenty of playtime and fresh air in our grassy yard. From playful puppies to gentle giants, I’ve handled dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m confident with potty training and establishing healthy routines for any breed. Since I was 15, I’ve also cared for cats, both my family’s and my friends’. I keep litter boxes clean and ensure they stay off surfaces where they might break or damage anything, all while making sure they feel safe and cared for. Whether it’s a long walk, a cozy cuddle, or responsible in-home care, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’d love the chance to care for your furry friend. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time throughout the week to give your pet the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday drop-in, or overnight stay, I’m available and committed to working around your needs. Your pet will never feel rushed or overlooked, they’ll have my full attention and care. Comfortable, Spacious, and Pet-Friendly Home Your pet will feel right at home here. I have a large backyard and a spacious home with plenty of room for dogs to play, explore, and relax. While the yard is not fenced, I always supervise outdoor time to ensure pets stay safe and secure. If you use training tools like an e-collar and provide them, I’m happy to use them responsibly and only according to your guidance. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, just like family.
About: I don’t have a lot of professional experience yet, but I truly love animals and take care of them with patience and responsibility. Friends and neighbors have trusted me with their pets, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I can take everyday if it’s at my house or it’s staying at my house over night! If I have to go somewhere or someone’s house so on the weekends Я всегда слежу за тем, чтобы питомцы чувствовали себя безопасно и комфортно — как у меня дома, так и в доме клиента. Я строго соблюдаю все инструкции по кормлению и выгулу, поддерживаю чистоту и уделяю животным постоянное внимание. Я отношусь к каждому питомцу бережно и уважительно, чтобы он чувствовал себя спокойно, счастливо и уверенно.
About: I’ve always loved animals, especially dogs, ever since I was a kid. There’s something about getting to know their personalities makes me want to provide them the same love and care that that owners show. I am experienced with long-term sitting, including stays exceeding two weeks, where I focus on maintaining the dog’s specific routine, diet, and energy levels. I’m currently working full-time, but I do work from home so that helps a lot. I work between 9-5, but I can also work weekends here and there. Just let me know and I’ll see how I can oblige. I have a fenced backyard with two gates on each side of my home and a backyard camera so your furry friend can run freely and you can rest at ease knowing they are safe

About: I've been surrounded by pets all my life, and helping take care of them since I was 3. I'm most experienced with cats and dogs of ages ranging from a few weeks old to end-of-life, and have consistent experience with cleaning accidents, brushing, bathing, and special dietary or medicinal needs. I'd love to meet your pets and help take care of them for any reason, so you can be happy and they can be happy! My services are dedicated solely to summer and the Christmas season, as I am currently a college student and can only pet sit when I am at home for extended periods of time. Throughout most of the year, as of now, I am unavailable, but keep me in mind for the hotter days and holidays!!! Depending on your pets' needs, I'm willing to split my time between caring for them and making sure their environment is perfect for them to thrive. I regularly check to make sure they have enough food and will set alarms for any designated meal times, as well as regularly keep track of any notable events that you might want to hear about. However, given that every pet and every home is different, I'm willing and able to care for your pets in any way you see fit!
About: My previous experience in pet care includes employment at Holiday Barn Pet Resorts as a pet care associate, volunteering at Richmond Animal League, and pet sitting for a wide variety of animals. Pet sitting for pets around my neighborhood was my first job! Growing up with pets of my own my whole life has also allowed me to become accustomed to caring for animals of all different sizes, ages, and temperaments. As a college student on summer break, I am opening my schedule up through mid-August and plan to fill my days/weeks with pet care services! Help me keep busy :) I am currently offering walks, drop ins, and/or overnight services, and I have experience with caring for pets in others’ homes. As of right now I am unable to provide boarding services.
About: Hi there! I’m Fabrizio, proud dog parent to Bruno, my 5-year-old buddy who taught me that every pup has their own personality and needs. Over the years I’ve also cared for the pets of friends and family — from playful puppies to older dogs that just need extra love and attention. I’m flexible, reliable, and love keeping owners updated with pics and messages. With me, every walk is an adventure and every cuddle feels like home. 🐾🐶 I work as an independent sports agent, which means most of my job is done from my phone and laptop. Because of this, I have a very flexible schedule and can easily adjust my day around walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting. Whether it’s mornings, afternoons, evenings, or even weekends, I can usually make it work. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s routine and find the perfect times to keep them happy and cared for. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. When I’m in your home, I respect your space and follow all instructions carefully to make sure your pets feel comfortable and secure. I treat every house as if it were my own, with responsibility and care. On walks, I’m always alert to surroundings, traffic, and other animals. I keep dogs safely leashed, avoid risky situations, and make sure they get exercise in a fun but safe way. You can trust that your pets will always be in good hands with me.

“Thomas did an amazing job in take care of our two boxers. He was on time, reliable, communicated well, and went above and beyond to ensure that each dog was properly walked, exercised, and cared for. Highly recommend Thomas for any of your pet walking and care needs!”
“Christina is a phenomenal dog walker & dog sitter. We just started using Rover for our puppy and Christina has been incredibly helpful and flexible. Our puppy has a ton of energy and Christina hasn’t missed a beat. We especially love the Rover Cards Christina sends us every day after each visit. Our puppy’s behavior is so much better when Christina comes to visit. She’s a life saver!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for several years, including dogs of all sizes, cats, and even senior animals who need extra patience and attention. What sets me apart is my calm, attentive approach and genuine love for animals. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level. I have experience with puppy care, basic training reinforcement (like leash walking and commands), and caring for older pets who may need medication, slower walks, or extra supervision. I’m very detail oriented, so I carefully follow any instructions you provide to keep your pet happy and safe. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or just companionship, I make sure every pet feels loved and secure while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I plan my schedule around being available, attentive, and flexible. I have consistent availability throughout the week and can adjust my routine to meet your pet’s needs, whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care. I prioritize reliability and communication, so you can count on me to show up on time and keep you updated with messages or photos. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make it a regular and important part of my week. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s routine closely to keep things familiar and stress-free. I pay attention to details like secure doors, safe walking routes, and making sure pets are always supervised when needed. I take time to build trust with each animal, especially those who may be shy or anxious, using patience and positive interactions. I’m also comfortable handling feeding schedules, crate routines, and administering basic medications if needed. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in a caring, responsible, and attentive environment with me.

About: Growing up my family always had at least one or more pets of various breeds so I have 20+ years of experience around animals. I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, lizards, rabbits, goats, and hedgehogs. Personally, my husband & I have 2 dogs currently, 9 & 10 years old, one having epilepsy & is dependent on medication. I have helped raise/care for/train puppies, kittens, baby rabbits, & baby goats. The only pet I'm not comfortable with is snakes, my little sister has one but I only look at it from 3ft away in its enclosure, haha. I work part time Tu/W/Th 8A - 5P, I do not mind caring for pets those days, however I will be gone all day. Otherwise, I'm available for your pets needs! My personal routine with my pets: My husband helps me care for our pets daily but his schedule is a bit different than mine, so our dogs are let out at least within 4-6 hours those days. Otherwise, we let them out every 2-4 depending on their needs (which they have been trained to lets us know if they need to go sooner). Our medical dog is on a 12 hr medication schedule. I'd prefer to care in my clients home due to one of my dogs having a reactive past, it was quite a transition when we inherited our other dog. If you have a specific routine, I'm ready to follow it to the T! I'm comfortable walking dogs on leash, hanging out/playing with them in a fenced yard, or just chilling inside. As mentioned, I have experience with medically dependent pets. I have an escape artist, so I'm always vigilant of their proximity to me and prepared to run/chase in the event something happens. I can stay at the home with the pets or I can visit throughout the day!
About: I've had various pets my entire life and been pet sitting/walking for over 25 years! I have experience with any species from hamsters, lizards, and bunnies, to cats and dogs, as well as livestock! My family raises and competes with oxen in the Northeast, and until recently moving south I cared for large animals (horses, cattle, goats, etc) as a side gig as well. There isn't an animal out there that I'm unwilling to work with! I love to care for and work with dogs. I'm happy to do regularly scheduled walks/hikes, or help out as needed. I don't have any official training certification but I do have a background in behavior analysis that has proven helpful when working with and training pets and farm animals. I'm available weekdays mostly during the day but have plenty of flexibility overall. Also available most weekends! Message me with your needs and I can check my schedule for availability. I have a German Shepherd and a Staffordshire Terrier. Although they love to play, due to their size and intensity of play, I'm not doing any care in my home at this time. If I establish a relationship with a client and know their pet well enough to know if it's a good fit, we can discuss the possibility of care in my home. I am willing to do care for small animals in cages in my home (hamster, bearded dragon, etc) In a client's home, I will follow whatever individual preferences they have!
“Highly recommend Brian! If you want to make your dogs, and you, so happy, Brian crushes in a really important way. He communicated a lot and I knew I could rely on him.. Even on the initial meet & greet. He confirms before every visit that he’ll be there, you know when he arrives and departs, and you get an update of the visit with pictures. He seriously reduced my anxiety while I was out of town. He visited midday (my hubby was home at night) to feed them and give them a walk. They were so happy during the week and I attribute a lot of this to Brian’s attention and his love of dogs we saw from him on the meet & greet. My 2 dogs are 100 lbs and a reactive 75 lbs and he walked them together.”
“Have had a wonderful experience with Kaylee as our dog walker. She’s very attentive to both our dog’s needs and gives me regular updates and photos. Our boys look forward to seeing her every day for their walk and treats.”
About: Animals have been part of my life since I was little. Dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, lizards, fish. Our house was always full of them and that never really stopped. I have spent my whole life around all kinds of animals, watching them for friends and family, learning what they need, and genuinely loving every minute of it. Animals know. They know when someone is comfortable around them and they know when someone actually cares. I have always been someone they warm up to quickly because I take the time to actually see them. What makes them happy, what stresses them out, whether they want to play or just want someone nearby. I follow their lead every time. Every pet I care for gets treated like my own. I am semi-retired and my schedule is genuinely flexible. Mornings, midday, evenings, multiple visits in a day if that is what your pet needs. Pet care is not something I am squeezing in between other things. It is something I actually want to be doing. I am semi-retired and my schedule is genuinely flexible.

“Lucky took great care of our two greyhounds. They were returned to us happy and healthy, and we got many updates and pictures during our trip! It was a stress-free experience; highly recommend!”
“This couple is amazing! I am a first time user of Rover and couldn’t be happier. They sent multiple pictures and videos throughout the weekend. My dog did so well there with their dog and cats. They truly cared for my dog and showed her love. I will definitely be using them again.”
“Our three dogs had a wonderful time at Radka's and Jim's home. They stayed 3 days and 2 nights. I could tell they were happy and well-loved from the many photos Radka sent us during their stay. We are thrilled with this experience and plan to book with them again next time we have to be out of town.”
“Julie was great! She was able to board our dog last minute and had a bunch of items on hand so we didn't have to bring a ton. She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures. She also gave some good advice afterwards to help with boarding next time”
“Adam is a natural, per Cooper. We knew the moment we met him that Cooper was in good hands. Cooper took to him immediately and made himself at home. We got him back last night and Cooper was calm and happy. Thanks Adam!!!”
“We did a test run overnighter with Honey and it was successful. I'm looking forward to Colleen and her family being able to take good care of my pup while I'm away. I feel totally at peace with them and their care for my companion. Thank you Colleen”
“Miranda is absolutely PHENOMENAL!!! She took care of our dog Archie last-minute (for the first time, too) and was incredibly kind, helpful, and constantly updated me while watching him. Archie had such a good time, he didn't want to leave! We also had to pick him up past midnight on our way back, and Miranda was extremely accommodating and, again, was just amazing overall. Her dog Crush was also super sweet and has become Archie's first best friend. We will absolutely be using her services again, and I highly recommend others to do the same!!!”
“This was Sully's third time staying with Cassie. And, it certainly won't be his last! Cassie is absolutely wonderful with Sully and all the pets in her care. When we are out of town, I don't think twice about how Sully is doing as I know he's in great hands! It is such a relief not to worry. Cassie also send lots of videos and pictures which always make me smile as I know Sully is being loved and having so much fun. If you are looking for an amazing pet sitter, look no further! Cassie is amazing!”
“Laura and her family were great. She sent daily updates, responded quickly, and was able to work with our schedule. Brady looked happy and well cared for. Would definitely board with her again!”
“Marvin responded very quickly for a last minute request and was able to take care of my bully. He was communicative sent great pictures and gave him great walks. My guy came home happy. It was assuring to know he was still taken care of. 10/10 highly recommend”
“Christina is an awesome dog sitter! Super nice and caring. She kept us in the loop with updates, pics, and videos while we were away. The backyard is a game-changer, especially for our lively Aussie and big Old English Sheepdog. Thumbs up for keeping our pups happy! And we will definitely book with her again! 🐾”
“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!”
“They’re always amazing great communicators and they treat Penelope just like she would be if she was their dog. They truly are wonderful family that also our friendly and nice.”
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.
“I recently used the Valerie to watch our pup and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Valerie was incredibly attentive to my dog's needs and provided a loving and safe environment. Communication was top-notch with regular updates and adorable pictures to ease my worries. My pup was well taken care of and I felt completely at ease during her first time away. I highly recommend Valerie caring for your dog for her professionalism and genuine care for pets."”
“I feel my dog is safe in their care, he loves to go here. I love daily updates and photos that I’m sent of my dog. I highly recommend this family to care for your fur baby on your next trip! Thank you ☺️”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a three-month-old Golden Retriever puppy named Archie, so I’m very familiar with puppy routines, training, potty breaks, and high-energy playtime. I also raised two of my mom's Pomeranians, Flynn and Pepper, from puppyhood and lived with and cared for them daily for years. Because of that, I’m very comfortable with both small and large breeds, as well as the patience, consistency, and attention that dogs need to feel safe and comfortable. Caring for animals fits very naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely love spending time with pets and making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved! I’m currently working toward my teaching license this summer, which gives me a flexible schedule and lots of availability for walks, drop-ins, playtime, cuddles, and keeping pets company throughout the day. I can handle nearly any issue that concerns dogs, whether that be giving medicine to your pup or cleaning up vomit, I can do it all! I also have no issue training new puppies for certain tasks, so feel free to ask me.
“Ashley helped my senior dog, who needs extra love and attention, stay comfortable and well-adjusted in her home. Her dog, Pacha, was super sweet and provided great company too. Ashley, thank you for the wonderful care you provided for Saki. Your love and care for animals are exceptional.”
