About: I am a total mush for dogs. I've taken care of dogs of all kinds and sizes since I was a teenager. I will treat your dog and love them like I do my own. I work from home, so they will not be left alone. Since I will be home, I also will have plenty of time for walks and cuddles. I have a fenced in yard as well as live beside a dog park. I have one dog myself, so your dog will also have a friend to play with. I am able to crate a dog if that is the ask as well.

“Justine has been absolutely amazing! She spends so much time with my pets and makes every effort to understand their personalities and needs. I am so grateful for her!”


“Kim was wonderful! I especially liked her thorough communication of how the visit went, especially since it was her first time with our new pup!”

“I appreciate she was willing to work with me to find a time that would work for the visit. Took care of all my cats needs.”


“TJE is gentle and understanding with an anxious dog who takes a while to warm up. Also very dependable!”


“This was our first time using the Rover app and I was a little apprehensive. The apprehension turned into relief as Emily C. arrived every day to feed Jack the cat, scoop the poop, and give Jack some love. We would definitely book with her again.”

About: I grew up with my dogs my whole life I'm very very comfortable with almost any dog and dogs tend to feel the same with me. I've delt with lap dogs to family retrievers to larger aggressive dogs Along with that I'm young and have allot of energy haha so I'll definitely take your dog to the park and play with them till there tired If u want someone who you can trust with your dog I'm the person for you. It's not issue at all I normally have plenty of time available if I'm not with my daughter or taking care of my own dog or at work. In my own house I have a fenced in yard and a park down the street I can go to alot. Dog park is not far either. If u have plenty of room at your house however that may just be fine.

“Grace was a fantastic cat sitter! She provided lots of pictures and very detailed updates that eased my mind while I was out of town. Also, Grace noticed a medical issue with one of my cats and was able to pick up their prescription from the vet and give them their medicine all while I was out of town. I would very highly recommend Grace to anyone looking for a cat sitter, especially if your cat has additional medical needs!”


“Ashley was great and we will definitely use her again in the future to watch our pups!!”


About: I have had dogs my entire life including all different breeds and ages, I have also grown up in Roanoke and am comfortable and familiar with the area and looking to help out whenever needed! I currently work on Fridays all day at the hospital with taking classes from 8am-12pm Mon-Thurs with my weekends usually free! I am pretty much available anytime after 12pm and before 8am on weekdays other than Fridays! I have a sweet 8yr old Terrier that is my best friend.

About: Why hello there! The Hallie guarantee is as follows: I will give your pet the care, love, and fun that I would give my own. I recognize the stress that comes with trusting a stranger with your pets, and I am committed to providing comfort for both you and your pet. I’ve been taking care of animals since I can remember and have experience with numerous breeds and energy levels. I work from home Mon-Thurs until 3pm but can be available for a lunchtime walk. I’m available all day Fri-Sun. I’m familiar with the requirements of constant attention to pets. I’m on call 24/7 for my 2 year old German shepherd, Mellie. She’s a lovely, amazing high energy working dog with a hefty owner’s manual. I’m used to my schedule accommodating the highs and lows of pet care. I get how dogs can feel about a stranger in their home, and same for their owners. I’ll follow whatever house rules you’ve got, and respect your dog’s personal space. I’m working to fully understand dog body language & stress indicators, and how to adapt my own behavior appropriately. I don’t offer boarding services at my home - my dog isn’t dog-friendly. I don’t offer overnight housesitting either - I prefer not to leave my dog overnight unless I can find a sitter for her.

“excellent”


“Ellie was great, I had a last minute trip come up and didn’t feel as organized as I normally do. She was very flexible with scheduling and understanding about the circumstances. And she was great with my girls. They can be a little standoffish but Ellie was patient and got them to warm up to her.”


About: I have a lifelong love for animals and 15 years of experience caring for pets. I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior and compassionate care to every pet I meet. I grew up with animals and currently have a three-year-old dog whom I trained myself, making me confident in basic obedience training.

As a full-time graduate student in a virtual program, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive and consistent care for your pets. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or overnight boarding, I have plenty of time to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I’m available for boarding both during the week and on weekends, making it easy to accommodate your travel or work schedule.

I tailor care to each pet’s needs—whether that means plenty of playtime, structured routines, or a quiet space to relax. If needed, I can easily crate your dog for sleeping or downtime to match their usual routine. My goal is to make your pet feel at home while ensuring they are safe, happy, and well cared for.

Vinton dog parents share their Rover experiences
Cate was wonderful. We had just moved here, which can be hard/stressful for a furry family member. Cate made sure our dog was well cared for. She sent lots of pictures and updates. We will 100% use her in the future. Highly recommend !

Logan was amazing with our husky during the drop-in visits! She was punctual, kind, and communicated really well throughout each visit. Highly recommend Logan for anyone needing a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!

Ashley L hit it off with my fur babies the first time she came over to see about sitting. I knew right then that we had a gem in Ashley and once again she was there for us be able to go our trip. I love the pictures she sends which adds to us being comfortable. Thank you again Ashley. You already know we will be calling again and again.

Mallory was fantastic! She was very friendly and attentive during the meet and greet. Then during our travel she was highly communicative and understanding when we accidentally gave her the wrong access code. She paid close attention to our older dog who has an injury that commonly flares up and she was timely for the visits. We would highly recommend Mallory for anyone's pet needs!

Hope was great with our furry beast! I felt so comfortable leaving Luna in Hope’s care while we were away. My main concern was that my pup needed attention and interaction in our absence and Hope exceeded expectations. I definitely would reach out to her again and recommend her to others for drop in visits!

This was our second time booking with Rebekah and once again she did a great job for our pets. Will book with her again in the future! Thanks Rebekah!

From a nervous pet mom who hasn’t left the fur babies with someone new in a while, Katie eased all my nerves. I have an anxious pup who is very attached but the pictures, updates and detailed visits from Katie calmed my nerves from day one. I highly recommend Katie! From one anxious fur momma to another , just book it. You won’t regret it!!

Scott did a wonderful job! He did everything I asked and answered all of the questions I had while I was on vacation right away. I highly recommend Scott for all of your pet sitting needs.

Brooke did a great job with our dog, Scout! Was very communicative, helpful and punctual. Would highly recommend! 10/10!

Heather is dependable and has done a great job taking care of our dogs. This is the third time we’ve had her sit for us and I’m relieved to have someone I can count on. Thank you!

Abby was wonderful! She was extremely communicative throughout, great on-the-fly, and left detailed notes with pics from each visit. My older pup was in great hands with her, and it was so great knowing I didn't need to worry about anything with him while I was gone. Abby did everything just as was asked and had no problems administering meds. I also really appreciate that she gave us a chance to meet beforehand and go over everything. Highly recommend!
