“Rachel was wonderful. I have two cats, one who is older and requires medication. It was nice to have the peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands while we were away. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had and loved pets my entire life! (I was convinced I was going to be a vet until I realized I would very likely sob every time a pet got sick.) From my black lab, Raven, to my cats Lily and Langston, to now, my long-haired chihuahua, Midge, animals are just a part of the day-to-day! Since age 12, I’ve been petsitting for friends, family, and neighbors (including overnight stays) and cared for dogs who are super energetic, playful, and independent to dogs who experience some anxiety and might need a bit more attention❤️! I also have experience caring for a bit older doggos. My black lab, Raven, lived to 16 and as her mobility and needs changed, I changed with her and it really taught me to be very attentive, gentle, and adaptive to a pets needs. I’m comfortable and experienced with walking, feeding, brushing, playtime, litter boxes, and loving and attention when pets want or need it❤️! So whether your pet is super energetic and playful or just wants a calm, reassuring companion, I’m happy to match their vibe and energy and make them feel loved and at home☺️🐾! I’m a rising junior at Virginia Tech and home for the summer, working part-time as a server in the Fort Hunt/Hybla Valley area. I have a super flexible schedule and lots of free time to spend with your pets, so I’m available for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, or whatever else your pet might need😊! Mainly, I care for pets in the comfort of their own home with walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays! I make sure to stick to their routine, make sure they get plenty of playtime, attention, and exercise (or just hang out if that’s more their style!) I don’t usually host pets in my home, but I’m super flexible and want to make sure your pet feels happy and loved, and I’ll always make sure to send updates and pics📸🫶!
“Daisy goes above and beyond in her communication and care for your pets. I really appreciated her transparency during the visits, and she was very caring and attentive to my pets needs. I would easily book her again!”
“Cassandra is the best! She took extra special care of our senior greyhound. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing that our baby was getting the best care and lots of snuggles.”
“Honestly the 2 nicest people you could ever ask to watch your cats. They were great with giving my cats their meds. I came home knowing they had everything taken care of at my house. They even picked up my mail.”
“Amanda has helped us out multiple times! She is great with our pets and always sends updates and pictures to help us feel more comfortable while we are away. Trustworthy and highly recommended.”
“Andrea was available on short notice and didn’t have a minimum visit number, she came at the time she promised and did all of the things I asked. I would definitely use her again!”
“Lined is amazing, she takes sub great care of my baby while I’m gone!! She has great communication and noticed when my dog had a slight limp in his back leg! She’s always on time and incredibly kind:)”
“Jennifer was great with my cat, Ted! I appreciate her updates and that she came by before the service to grab the keys. Would book her again, and highly recommend her!!”
“Carly has been so wonderful and reliable for our dog, Phoebe! She has provided weekly drop ins for a couple of months and one long overnight stay so far, which she extended a night on short notice for us. She provides us with consistent updates and communication and Phoebe is always a happy girl after each of her visits. We highly recommend Carly, she’s been one of our best Petsitters to date.”
“Lori is lovely and dependable! I booked a bit last minute and she was able to FaceTime so we both could feel comfortable. She met Willie 🐶 on FaceTime as well. Very trustworthy, I would absolutely 💯 use her services again!”
“We love having Nikki visit moose. She is is attentive and caring! She also leaves detailed recaps of each visit. Moose is lucky to have her. We can tell he already loves her!”
“We really enjoyed our meet and greet with Matt. He was great with both my dogs and his background and understanding of dog behavior and dog training is very reassuring with my very anxious puppers!”
“I’m brand new to using Rover and Jasmin really set the bar high! She was very helpful for me and so sweet to my babies! I’ve got four crazies who are afraid of new ppl but she got them all to listen and calm down with her! She’s amazing and I highly recommend her!”
“Our cat Ella loved Elyse right away which doesn't always happen with new people. Elyse was very communicative , flexible, and so great to work with. She provided great updates while we were away which was really appreciated. Wouldn't hesitate to book Elyse again!”
“We have a nine year old dog with anxiety. It takes several visits so she will remember someone one and warm up to them. Zoe has been amazing. She is always on time. She is patient and gentle. She was able to build trust with our dog so that I can now leave for a long afternoon and not worry.”
Wellington cat parents share their Rover experiences
Sarah stopped in for a practice visit before taking care of our 2 cats for an upcoming weekend. She asked all the right questions especially for things we overlooked. We never go away from our babies but now we can feel secure that Sarah will treat them like her own.
Juan was very kind and sweet with our cats. he came for a meet and greet as this was the first time he took care of our two cats. He even hand fed one their daily medicine as she's a little finicky. Would ask Juan to care for our cats again.This was our first time using Rover.
Frank was wonderful, again. Drawing out my cat when I swear he won't come out at all. And getting a great picture of Toulouse in Frank's shoes. Frank provides such great updates and photos, even when I'm gone just 36 hours. I know Toulouse is well looked after.
