“Olivia was great! She watched my 1.5 year old lab, Sophie, at my house overnight and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable leaving her in Olivia’s hands. We did a meet & great beforehand so everyone felt comfortable and Olivia even brought a notebook for some notes on how to care for Sophs while I was away! I loved all the picture updates while I was gone - it was much appreciated! When I got home from my trip, it was like Sophie hadn’t missed a beat.. which just goes to show that Olivia took great care of her. Will absolutely reach out to Olivia again the next time Sophie needs a sitter. Highly recommend her to care for anyone’s pups!!”


“Awesome house sitter, she felt comfortable taking my dogs back to her place and took very good care of them and they seem to doing great when I got home from my weekend trip! Thank you so much!”


About: I started volunteering at the animal shelter when I was 10. I have 5 dogs and 8 cats that I have rescued from abusive/neglectful homes, the streets, and from the shelter. I took a vet tech class in high school and a big/small animal class. I’m very good with all kinds and types of animals. I work part time currently, 4 to 5 hours a day Monday-Thursday and I’m off Friday-Sunday. I will definitely be able to care for and engage with your pet when needed. When I go to a new house to dog sit I always lock the doors and make sure to follow all rules I have been given. I stay very aware of my surroundings and the animal.

About: I have grown up around animals my whole life. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs. I have 3 cats(one special needs) and a giant breed dog! I have experience administering non-injection medication to animals with health issues. I love animals of all sizes! Communication is very important to me and I stay in close contact the entire time I’m caring for your babies! I am unemployed so I have all the time in the world! I may have some random scheduling conflicts but I will always update my schedule to reflect that. I treat them like they are my own! I give them all the loves and care that they need from me while I’m with your little babies!

“I was so pleased with Parker’s petsitting and housesitting services! She’s very kind and a good communicator, and I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with her. I didn’t worry about him at all during my trip. I was so grateful that he was able to stay in our home so that he was in a familiar environment, and Parker was a great houseguest! I would absolutely use her services again and recommend her to anyone looking for pet care.”


“Jolee did a great job watching our two large dogs while we were gone. Our lab can be a bit slow to warm up with new people and she handled him super well and communicated with us consistently. We loved the pics she sent! Would definitely rebook :)”


“Heather is bright, personable, and responsible. Also, she is genuine in her affection for and knowledge of dogs. My "difficult" dog, who barks loudly and scares all visitors was instantly smitten with her. I had to wrestle the dog off the couch when Heather sat down. She was prepared for our meet and greet and asked pertinent questions, showing that she had put thought into the visit. Heather has her own pups and the fact that she has experience with common dog issues is very reassuring. The overnight stay went without a hitch, photos were texted, and I could not be happier. I look forward to having Heather visit again soon!”


About: I have been around animals my whole life, and I have done dog and cat sitting a few times over the years for neighbors or friends. I’ve had cats and dogs in my home since 2014, and I am very comfortable around both. I currently have a full time job; I work primarily in the mornings with evening shifts thrown in here and there. I don’t do much outside of that, so I am pretty available otherwise. I want to keep all pets feeling comfortable, following their routines/schedule, and keeping them company (within their boundaries). I no longer live with my cats and miss them greatly, so I will make sure they receive extra attention, pets, and playtime (within their boundaries).

“Jess was absolutely amazing! We had a sitter cancel last minute and Jess came in and saved the day. She kept us updated frequently and included pictures. She accommodated every thing we asked and then some! Highly recommend booking Jess and we’ll definitely be using again!”


“Abby was great! We've known her as a vet tech for all of our pets for a few years, so she was an easy choice when we came across her profile on Rover. She watched our dog and six cats for a weekend and they were all happy and healthy when we returned, and Abby was easy to work with during the stay.”


About: When it comes to taking care of your pets they become my first priority! I’ve taken care of animals ever since I was a young age. I’ve worked in the veterinary field for 4 years. So if you have a senior pet or have one that needs daily medication I’m your gal! Along with all other services or skills from the veterinary field. I’d your pet needs long walks I’ll be there! I’m currently unemployed, so watching over your four legged furry friends is my number one priority! I am open any time whenever you need me! With the service I offer whatever your pet is familiar with or used to is how I’ll treat them best! Whether it would be let outside in your yard with a fence or leash walked! Either way time would be spent to take care of your pets however you’d like! Spending time with them by playing and loving them!

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since i was very young and always adored and loved them. I’ll love and adore yours also and give them only the best care. 😊 I work part time at our district in Roanoke-Benson as a paraprofessional and just finished my 15th year. I love pet-sitting and have done so for my friends and coworkers. I’m reliable and very responsible and love being with small/med dogs and/or cats. I’m also trustworthy and independent and will gladly meet your dear pets needs. I generally care for your pets in your home. It’s much more comfortable and familiar for them and it’s where all their things are very handy.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, reptiles, and fish from the ripe age of 10! I have had animals from the size of teacup yorkies to the size of Rottweilers so size doesn’t challenge me.
