Emily has great attention to detail and clearly cared about Lily’s happiness while we were away. She wrote very detailed notes and added lots of pictures (which we always appreciate). We have been looking for a good dog sitter to use that clicks with Lily and we’re so happy when we found her!

Penny has been great with Bodo! We’re moving out of state and will miss her care so much. She always communicates well and sends great updates and pictures. Bodo will miss you, Penny 🐾

Bailey did a great job with our boys! She arrived on time and spent time loving on our boys. We even added a last minute request to bring in some mail that needed to be refrigerated. Great experience. Will definitely recommend and have her come back anytime

My kitty had a great time with Robert. She is typically a bit wary around males but warmed up real quick when meeting him. She also had a bit of accident when I was away and Robert went above and cleaned it up with my pet vac. He even told me to keep an eye out for her health in case it was a sign of something worse. I definitely feel comfortable leaving my feline in his care in the future.

Karlee is a great sitter! She’s super friendly and responsive to visits. She’s done a great job at doing house visits for my puppy to tire him out and keep him engaged when I’m busy. Would definitely recommend!

Amy looked after our dog for the first time this weekend and she was absolutely wonderful. She asked great questions about meals, walks and our dog's routine and was very thorough in every detail. Amy kept us updated with photos and messages so we never wondered how things were going. Our usually shy dog warmed up to her immediately and I felt completely at ease being away knowing our dog was in such caring hands. We will absolutely work with her again!

Madelyn is amazing! This was my first time using Rover, and I was a little apprehensive because my pup can be feisty and temperamental. Madelyn was super accommodating, calm, and professional. She sent great pictures and definitely put my mind at ease while I was on vacation. Will 100% be using her again!

About: Registered Nurse looking to walk or watch your dog on my off days! I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and no longer have one due to my apartment regulations. I’m the biggest dog lover and would love to help you out and spend time with your dog! I am a nurse and work 12hr shifts. However, on my off days I’m around all day! My schedule changes weekly so I likely can’t commit to a specific routine but would perfect for someone who needs a walker a few random days throughout the week. I will take care of your dog as you want and need! I can crate if needed and will walk a prescribed distance/route if needed as well! Will also communicate highly.

About: I have been dog and cat sitting/walking since I was 13 years old! I have experience with puppies, senior pups, cats/kittens, along with many different breeds! I’m staying in Charlottesville for school now, but at home I have 3 dogs and 2 cats. Safe to say I have experience with the craziness :) I’m currently a full time student at UVA, so I have a little bit of a varying schedule. On Wednesday’s I am available all day after 11! Tuesday and Thursday I am available all day after 12:15! My Mondays tend to a little more hectic with availability before 10:30 and from 12-3. Fridays and weekends are relatively free with enough of a notice! I can take care of your fur baby in whatever way needed in your home! Walks, medications, crates, fences, whatever they’re used to! My apartment doesn’t allow pets so I will exclusively care for them in your home!
