“Yogi enjoyed his stay. I like that there are options. Dogs can stay in the house. But if they are more comfortable outside, she has a deck with access to a fenced in grass area. Good communication. No problems.”
“I left my furbaby with Walter during my thanksgiving break during covid and i couldnt be happier. During meet and greet all precautions were taken while getting all details on my baby behavior and preferences as well as during drop off and pick up. My pup seemed extremely happy and loved during her whole stay. I received daily updates and pictures about activities. I would totally leave my baby with him again and totally recommend him!!”
“I can’t say enough great words about Cindy. She took great care of our precious Hank. She sent photos during his stay. She responded quickly and so friendly to our text whenever we checked in. Our fur baby was treated like her own during our vacation. 150% would recommend Cindy to care for your baby and would use her again and again!”
“Alexsys took great care of my elderly cat who has medical issues. I was so nervous about going away and leaving him, and it was nice to have peace of mind that he was getting the attention and care that he needs. Alexsys was very accommodating and communicative, and I am glad we found her!”
“Bella is an amazing Pet Sitter and dog groomer! This is the first time anyone has ever kept my Pom so I was a little nervous. All those nerves were put to reset the moment we met and you assured me my puppy was in good hands. I appreciate all the messages and photos you sent. These are some of the best photos I have of my puppy! I will definitely book you again and recommend you to outer pet owners.”
“Kalley is an amazing sitter. She took awesome pictures and updated me daily on how my baby was doing. Thank you so much Kalley. We’ll be booking with again soon!”
“Heather is absolutely amazing! We’ve never left one of our dogs with anyone outside of family and it was so nice to see they had a blast and made themselves feel right at home. She is flexible, quick response time and has plenty of room for our dogs to run and play, also meeting some new friends with their dogs. We will keep our dogs going to Heather anytime we leave town and she is available.”
“Jessica was wonderful, I’m not sure my poodle missed me at all. She sent me regular updates, pictures and videos. Sometimes he was happily lap sitting. Sometimes she videoed him playing with toys her dog or interacting with her family. I was gone 10 days. I was happy to see him doing so well. He is a picky eater so I had sent cubed up chicken breast to mix with his food. When she ran out she cooked him another, which was going way above what I expected. I would definitely take my dog to Jessica again.”
“Lizette and her family are so sweet! They took the best care of Harvest and were such a pleasure. She made sure to keep me updated by sending regular pictures and Harvest surely loved them as well!”
“Our dog always has a wonderful time with Cheryl and her family. Her dogs are so sweet and welcoming. He gets a great workout and oodles of attention. We appreciate how easy it is to communicate with Cheryl and love her photo updates. She truly loves him like he's her own!”
“Allison was great with our boys! One of my dogs has a needy diet and Allison was more than willing to make the rice and provide for them with no questions asked! She sent us pictures throughout their stay and updated us when needed!”
“Whitney was incredible good with my little one. She took care of him very well when I was sick. And Tokyo had a great time with her dog Feather. She sent me lots of pictures and lmk all the time of how was my dog, and I appreciate that very much. Thank you Whitney!!!”
“Highly recommend!! Carrie and Alex were great. I loved get daily updates, pictures and videos. I had no anxiety over leaving Blue in their care and will leave him with them every time I visit Virginia! Thanks again Carrie and Alex!”
“I really like the fact that Lucy only watches one dog at a time. No cages or kennels were used, and our dog was allowed to be on the couch which is what she does at home. I would recommend Lucy”
“Amazing! I can’t say enough about how well she took care of our girls. I have already rebooked for our next trip. Not only does she treat the girls as family but she also works with training. We have a young pup so training has been out top priority. Highly recommended❤️❤️❤️”

“So very pleased with Melissa. She checked in daily on Sammy and always sent photos and a detailed — often humorous— update on how he was and what he was doing. I will definitely hire Melissa again and highly recommend her.”
“Maggie agreed to watch our cats on very short notice, as we had to go out of town for family reasons. Lots of photos and videos, and I'll always say, if my cats, especially Arya, are out and about and hanging around when someone new is in the house, they're a keeper. Very happy with the service and would love to have Maggie cat sit for us again in the future!”
“Megan is always the best! She always goes above and beyond and our fur children love her. When we can’t be home it always makes them feel better to have a familiar face stop by to snuggle them.”
“Katie was fantastic! She spent a lot of time with all 4 cats and even got our shy boy out of hiding - a first. I felt confident that they were getting as much love and care as possible while we were away. I highly recommend Katie.”
“I highly recommend Darian to take care of your pets! I needed someone reliable, and on very short notice, to take care of my precious skittish cat for three weeks. Darian did a wonderful job tending to all my cat's needs, and she accomplished the amazing by quickly getting my suspicious, standoffish cat to allow her to pet her! Darian also went the extra mile of cleaning up the floor several times when my cat coughed up hairballs and had other tummy issues. Darian had not taken care of my pet before, but she stepped in like a pro and took care of her, and kept tabs on my house as well. As I said at first, I highly recommend Darian for your pet!”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and currently have cats of my own, so I understand their unique personalities, body language, and daily care needs. From playful and social to shy and independent, I’m comfortable adapting to each cat’s individual temperament. In addition to personal experience, I previously worked as a kennel technician, where I cared for animals in a professional setting. This role taught me how to monitor behavior, recognize signs of stress or illness, safely handle animals, and maintain clean, sanitary environments. I’ve also volunteered with rescue cats, which gave me experience working with timid, fearful, and newly transitioned cats. I understand the importance of patience, gentle handling, and creating a calm environment so they feel safe and secure. Your cat’s comfort and well-being will always be my top priority.
About: I have been cat sitting for friends and family for a number of years now. I learned about the needs of cats through running the cat program of an animal rescue for about 6 months. In that time I was able to understand cat behavior, learn to administer medicine and vaccinations, provide for community cats, and engage in TNVR efforts.

“Alexsys is absolutely amazing and super sweet!! I had a last minute booking that she was able to take!! She sent me pictures and videos throughout the day showing how much of a good time my Rheya had!! I also LOVE that she was able to play with some other furry friends and had a back yard to get her zoomies out! 100% will be booking with her again!!”
“Taking on a totally unknown dog from a cross-country road trip, IS a risk. We knew our senior dog Ginger would likely be stressed: 1st from the trip, and 2nd to be left with a stranger, in an unfamiliar environment. Linda really seems to love the dogs, she had 1-2 fosters there when we arrived (not sure, as I think I only saw 1). While I'm sure it was hard on both of them, we do sincerely appreciate her taking on our dog for a few hours, so that we could attend the wedding of an old family friend. If you read this Linda, I am interested in that food you had there for your fosters. Please shoot me a message, I may look at ordering it to try next time. Thanks again!”
About: I've always had a love for animals and love working with them! I've grown up with dogs and love to be around them. My mom used to breed labs and I would help her socialize and take care of the puppies to prepare them for their new homes! My family always had at least six dogs at a time that I would help take care of as well! I also used to work for a kennel for almost two years, I have worked for a doggie daycare as well for about 2 years! I am currently enrolled in an online vet tech course and plan to finish that in the next year or so. I currently work a full time job 8-430 but am available weekends and would love to watch your pets!
About: Dog care certified in Argentina, as an animal lover I want to pursue career caring for them. Since young, I used to spend a lot of time in dog walks and parks with them. I believe now, I can provide them the perfect environment of a fenced backyard of 10.000 sqf. I love to exercise and pamper pups and we're easy to reach, even for a last-minute need. With some dog training experience and a lot of love for dogs, I look forward to taking care of your family member like one of our own. Depending on your pup's needs, I will take long playtime or jogs with your dog. If your furry family member just needs companionship and loving attention, I am happy to provide that kind of care, too. Photos of your dog will be shared with you throughout their visit. I love to send lots of pictures of my guests. My house is generally a cage-free environment, but will use your crates if that is what your pup is used to at home. I have a couple of gates to use as necessary to separate dogs during meals and to give them a large, safe play area in our home.
“Lisette is WONDERFUL and her family is also so nice. She was very friendly and lovable, super communicative, helpful, and also flexible. She took great care of my dog and sent photos throughout the day, and he was really happy and relaxed (and in no hurry to leave) when I came to pick him up so I know he loved being there! I definitely recommend her and will send my dog there again anytime she's available!”
“Wonderful sitter! You can tell she really cares about her campers. We have our baby scheduled with her for a long weekend and I fully trust her to provide excellent care. My little baby is my pride and joy :)”
“Thomas and his dog Henry were incredibly loving and hospitable with Naima. Naima was very happy going and seemed very happy when we picked her up. Thomas took her on long walks, so she was fully taken care of all day.”
About: I’ve been in the general field of caretaking for about 6 to 7 years. I was a full time nanny to a family of 7 children and 3 dogs for a few years before I married, and before that, I had multiple families for whom I watched their little ones, including the family dog/dogs. I also did some exclusive pet sitting apart from my previously mentioned work experience. I managed both kids and pets at once. I’ve gotten to know a variety of dog breeds. Growing up, we always had dogs. We’ve had a labradoodle, a few small mixed breeds, and a bernedoodle. Our bernedoodle, Rocco, I trained myself. He is the gentlest dog I’ve ever met and so smart. I taught fun tricks but also some useful ones like how to ring bells to indicate he needed to potty. I have loved being around dogs and having them in my life. We don’t currently have a dog since my two kids are young, so we can’t afford our own pup right now, although we certainly will get one in the future. That’s why I’m so excited to be able to provide other people’s dogs a warm and welcoming home away from home where they will be loved on and feel at ease. I’m a full time stay at home mom, so I’m almost always home. Apart from grocery shopping, minor errands, church on Sundays, or the rare trip to families, we are home all the time. Dogs that stay with us will have pretty much constant companionship and attention. We will be available for drop offs everyday except most of Sunday. Sunday evenings will be open though. Dogs that love a family environment will thrive here. We are usually up for the day around 7:00 am. My son loves dogs and will happily have a full conversation with them. He has grown up around many dogs because my mom has dogs and is a seasoned rover sitter herself. My husband works in the evenings so dogs will probably stay up and hang out with me as we unwind. We have a fenced in backyard so I can sit on our deck and let the dogs run, play, and potty easily and frequently. We live on a very quiet and friendly Cul-de-sac in the mountains of West Virginia, near Winchester. Dogs that come here will have a peaceful stay and have a lot of fun!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I can remember. I’ve always had a dog in my life, taking care of them was my main priority in my house! Making sure they ate, went on walks & bathed. I am currently unemployed since I just had my baby. So I have all the time in the world to make sure your furry loved one is taken care of! I have a very friendly dog who loves to play & a big back yard where they can run & play. At your house I will let them also get out & enjoy their time outside as well as inside. Will make sure they are bathed & fed & taken out when needed to.
“Lucy always does an amazing job with Molly. Her and Christian have really helped me with watching Molly as I prepare for a move, but I will still keep them as my go-to dog sitters for when I take a trip, even if they will live an hour away. The dog's excitement as I approach their house to drop her off with them tells me how well she's cared for while there.”
“Carrie Lynn was wonderful with our pups. Her place is very nicely kept and most of all my pups were safe and taken care of. I will definitely book her again! Thank you, Carrie Lynn!!!!”
“Siska was a great sitter! I got frequent updates and pictures. She took care of my boy Ziggy the same as I do and treated him like her own. He loved his play time with Lulu and came home so tired! I trust very few people to take care of my dogs, I would highly recommend her and I will only book with her!”
“Gabby was exceptional taking care my dog, Luna! It was my first time leaving her with a sitter and using Rover and she made the experience so much easier. She loved on my pup and sent me updates with pictures and videos throughout her overnight stay. Gabby is professional, friendly, and caring towards the pup and their human. I needed some handholding and she was super kind. I’d recommend Gabby any time!”
“Emily was fantastic with my dog. She is a very caring pet parent as well as pet sitter. She gave great communication and pictures. I could tell Dolly was super happy to be there. I will continue to use her in the future.”

“Thanks Alyssa. When we are walking Tucker and I always stop and let people walk past. Just to keep everyone at ease. Not all dogs are as friendly as our boy. Tucker was acting out of respect.”
About: Hi there, My name is Melissa and I work from home which allows me to have a very flexible schedule. l am a very active person who absolutely loves all sorts of fur babies, especially dogs and cats. I enjoy having the ability to interact with them on a daily basis. I currently have one fur baby of my own, Roxy (13 yo Jack Russell), but I have been around all types of animals since I was little, and I can't imagine my life without them. I would love to include more animals in my life by helping you take care of yours from drop-in visits, dog walking and more! I believe in positive reinforcement training versus negative reinforcement, which supports an animal’s overall well being. My goal is to make sure that your dog is fully sated from our walk so that when you get home you have a relaxed doggie! Having had more than one dog of my own in the past I am experienced in walking multiple dogs at a time, so if you have 2 or more dogs that need daily walks I am up for it! Also, if your pet just needs a cuddle and some caring for during the day I am happy to drop in visit on them and spend some time with them! I hope you’ll consider me for your pet care needs. I promise to treat your fur baby as if it were my own! Looking forward to working with you and your fur babies. I am have a very flexible schedule for dog walking and pet drop-in visits. Morning, afternoon or night time, I would be happy to take care of your pets! I will treat your fur baby as if they were my own pet with respect and gentle care. I also will respect your household and leave it in the condition it was in when I arrived.
“Katie is AMAZING! She’s walks my puppy during the day so he can get some energy out and get some exercise while I’m at a work and let me just say he looks SO SO SOOOO happy in all of the pictures she sends! I love how she sends me picture of him through out the walk and a report of how the walk went! I 100% recommend Katie for any of your needs!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all sorts. I grew up with small, medium, and large dogs as well as indoor and outdoor cats. I’ve also grown up caring for animals from a variety of backgrounds- fosters, rescues, you name it. I genuinely love spending time with animals and since I can’t have one of my own this seems like a great way to connect with pets and offer my services. I’m happy to come meet any animals in advance to make you more comfortable. I currently work remotely 90% of the time so this gives me a lot of flexibility to walk and take care of animals during work day hours if needed. I’m very good with following whatever directions will make you and your pets feel the most comfortable in your homes and out on walks.
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 10. I would help family and neighbors and then grew to not just a job it has came to something I love and thrive to do. I am now 33 years old and I strive to help others with their fur babies so they are never alone and taken care of. I own my own farm so my pet care starts at 6am to when I go to bed. I have some much time through the day I I want to help others with their pets/animals. I do not watch others animals in my home only due to our farm animals. But I am happy to go to my clients home to feed, water, give basic care and play with clients pets.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for over 10 years, with skills for basic training. Your pets happiness and safety is my priority. Thank you! I work remote and have the time to spend with your furry companion. I have two dogs of my own that I foster. My schedule is open and flexible to meet your dogs needs. I live in a three story townhouse that allows me the space to observe each dogs temperament to see how they interact with other dogs.
“I was nervous having someone come into my home and take my pup on walks while I’m at work but Megan has been so great! My dog Dixie loves her! Thank you Megan for what you do! 😁”
About: I have been animal sitting for almost 9 years now, starting when I was in high school. I have experience in animal care for multiple species, energy levels, behaviors, ages, and health needs. No task is too big for me, my biggest job was being a sitter for a family of 10 dogs, and a pig! I worked at a nonprofit animal rescue where I learned more about how to care for cats and dogs, and how to gauge their personalities, and energy levels. I am passionate about animal happiness and satisfaction. Right now, I am completely free. I have a car and a valid drivers license. I just moved back home after hiking for 4 months on the Appalachian trail, while walking I had lots of time to think about my passions, and of those are animal welfare, care, and personally staying active and fit! I have two personal dogs, one of which is a senior in hospice care, out of respect for him, I am not taking animals into my home right now. However, any type of drop-ins or house-sitting is on the table. I take direction seriously and can provide medical care, activity, play, feeding, or anything else that is needed for your beloved animal!
“Really liked meeting with Emily. She was super friendly and my dog hit it right off with her at the meet and greet. When she came to take care of my dog she was on time and left a great message with details about the walk. TOTALLY will be using her again and 100% recommend.”

“Gabby was absolutely wonderful throughout our entire trip. She was friendly, easy to talk to, and communicated clearly from the moment we booked. She went above and beyond by sending us regular pictures and updates of our dog while we were on vacation, which gave us a lot of peace of mind and made us feel connected even while we were away. She was flexible, accommodating, and genuinely seemed to care about our dog’s comfort and routine. Overall, the experience was excellent, and we truly appreciated everything she did to make the stay smooth and stress-free. We would gladly book with her again!”
“Molly was very willing to meet us along our travel route to minimize the amount of time it took off our holiday route to take Story to a sitter. She was very communicative and prompt in meeting. Our dog bonded with her teen stepson, so we felt like the plan was mutually beneficial. We will definitely check with her the next time we need a sitter when we are traveling through her area.”
