“Taylor was wonderful with our puppy! This was his very first time with a sitter, and she made the experience so easy and reassuring. She was patient, kind, and helped him warm up to her dogs quickly. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos—it gave us peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We feel confident about leaving him for boarding thanks to how well the day care went. Highly recommend!”

“We are so grateful to have found Melissa! She was so kind and gentle with our Luna, who has been through quite a lot in the last couple of years. We wanted a calm, nurturing environment for her to stay and that’s exactly what we got. Luna seemed to really enjoy her time there and we look forward to visiting Melissa again!”

“Susan is great! This is our second time booking with her and it won’t be our last! We feel so confident that our baby is well cared for and is having fun. Thank you, Susan!”

“Beth has been an absolute godsend for us! Our boy Dakota has never been a fan of daycare but he is treated like family while he is there and is happy to see her each and every day! Thank you for giving us peace of mind and caring for our boy!!”

“Corey is so easy to work with - quick responses and was available on short notice and we are so grateful for that! Our dogs were in great care and got walks and loving. Will definitely be rebooking!”

About: Hi! I am Victoria, a dog mom here in a quiet home in Manassas old town. Cubs is a one year old, 5 pounds yorkie who loves to nap on my lap while I work. Cubs will be happy to share all of his toys, beds, and be lazy all in the morning with cozy blankies and treats ✨ and in the afternoon, Cubs will also would love to run with your dog when we go on a walk. Cubs grew up with cats, so he knows to leave them alone! And I work from home with a very flexible schedule. I’m all about communicating daily. My current job is about videography/photography, so please understand when I bomb your phone with photos of your baby. I have a very quiet and calm home all to myself and Cubs, and we welcome your baby to join our home so you won’t have to worry during your travel. Please ask me any questions you might have! I work remotely at home and have a very flexible schedule. I can accommodate to your baby’s schedule and needs. My job is to prioritize happiness/comfort while you are gone, so your dog chooses me over you - (please be aware as that has happened before and saw one of my clients get real sad) I grew up with dogs and cats all my life. So I’m very comfortable with cat/dog care in all stages of their lives. Also, coming from education and child development background (i used to teach in FCPS elementary for 5yrs before pandemic) , I see so much resemblance in teaching children and taking care of animals - rules and routines, along with positive rewards and experiences. And i believe building a trustworthy relationship creates a safe space for anyone or any fur babies. And I’m confident your dog/cat would wanna come back to stay with us. I’m also all about sending quite lot of pictures/videos.
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the genuine love and care I provide—because to me, dogs are family. I don’t just “watch” dogs—I care for them as if they were my own children. I have years of hands-on experience with dogs, and I currently have a sweet fur family of my own that includes a Maltese, a Shih Tzu, a Labradoodle, and a Standard Poodle. All are hypoallergenic and get along well with others. I work from home full-time, which gives me the flexibility to provide one-on-one attention, potty breaks, walks, and a calm, structured environment. I am mainly open to care for hypoallergenic dogs but also others on case by case basis, so just feel free to reach out. I don’t crate dogs unless requested and am happy to follow your dog’s routine for meals, walks, supplements, or special care. I believe every dog deserves personalized attention, gentle handling, and a peaceful transition. I always request a meet-and-greet first to ensure your dog is comfortable and happy with me and my home. Your furry companion’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities! No cat watching at this time. I work from home full time, so I have the flexibility to watch and take your fur baby out for a walk and potty breaks. My dogs are trained and well behaved. If your dog needs space from mine, we have a gate that can keep them separated. Also, my pets are up to date with vaccines so I would like to make sure that yours are too!
About: Hi! I truly enjoy being around animals and caring for them like they’re part of the family. My husband, our 3-year-old son, and I all love having pets around—we’re a home full of energy, love, and cuddles! Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just keeping your pet company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide pet care throughout the day and week. I’m home most of the time, so your pet will have plenty of attention, playtime and companionship. I can easily fit your needs into my daily routine. I have a dedicated space in my home which can be used for pet care throughout. Also, with a fenced backyard , it is an easy and convenient place for pets.
“Our dog Summer has been having a great time in weekly doggie daycare with Katheryn (and her dog Phoebe). Katheryn is very active with Summer, taking her on multiple walks and to the dog park. Summer loves being outside and sniffing around so this is perfect for her! Katheryn has kept me posted on how the day care went with notes, pictures, and videos of their activities and hanging out at the house. Katheryn also has a back yard where Summer loves to hang out and she can come and go as she pleases. I definitely recommend Katheryn!”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a teenager in high school. I love all types of animals and have had my own from mice to a Great Dane to a horse. Currently I have dogs and a bearded dragon. I am currently homeschooling my niece and nephew, so I am home most of the day. If I go to homeschool events I am usually back within 2-3 hours. Having dogs myself, I make sure they have lots of potty breaks and play time. I have a fenced in yard and 4 dogs of my own. I have a single family home with two levels so if dogs need to be separated they can be with lots of space to move around still. I also have safety gates separating the living room and kitchen for proper meet and greets, feeding, just needing a break and safety of everyone. Our spare bedroom is currently our “dog” room that has crates, a bed, dogs beds, and all our supplies. All visitors are allowed to sleep on the bed in there, can be used for cage free enclosure, or if the need to be crated in a quiet place. This is a dog loving home, pups are allowed on couches and beds, kids and I love snuggles.
About: I believe that dogs deserve the best experience in life: Sun-bathing, free-running and healthy eating. With my care, I can ensure that the dogs will never want to leave! I am available at home everyday to play and take care of the dogs. I can take them out for walks and play frequently as well as clean them if they get too dirty from playing outside! I have a fenced yard with access of great sunlight and fresh air for the dogs to run around and play. Lots of land and toys for them to explore.

“Gabriela is amazing. She was so professional and detailed when keeping me updated on my pups first doggy daycare visit with her. She sent picture updates throughout the day. My dog looked so happy with her. She is so kind and I am grateful to have found her to take care of my beloved pup for doggy daycare and other Rover services. I will definitely be using her again.”

I bet that my puppy enjoyed playing with them a lot. my puppy was very comfortable there, because my puppy understands Japanese and English. I am very happy to find Mai who I can trust. I will continue taking my puppy to Mai. Thank you !!! See you soon”

About: Please note I work a "day job" Mon to Fri is 8a-4p. During housesits I will only be available in the evening and overnight/early morning with no midday drop-in. I do not offer constant care. I have experience with socializing feral kittens, teaching violent dogs their manners, and easing pups into obedience training. I love hiking so I'm absolutely willing to take your pup on more difficult terrain if they have vigorous energy needs. For house sits longer than a couple of nights, my partner often joins me overnight. I don't mind being up early or doing overnight duty if your schedule needs it! Occasionally I'll have military obligations but they should be reflected on my calendar. I am not available in early afternoons due to my current work schedule. I cannot host your pups in my home at the moment. However, in your home I promise to treat your space with dignity and respect as if it were mine own and to triple-check any special instructions you may leave!
West Gate dog parents share their Rover experiences
My dogs had so much fun at Heather’s! Her dog Romeo was a fantastic playmate for my dogs; she has a big fenced yard so they were able to get nice and worn out. :-) Heather is very attentive to the dogs and carefully watches their body language, behavior, and demeanor to ensure their safety and comfort. She sent great pics and videos as well. I felt confident that my little ones were in safe and caring hands! Will definitely be returning. 👍
