“Lei is a fantastic pet sitter. She cared for my 3 year old golden retriever in my home while I was on vacation for a week and I felt very confident in all the care, attention, and love she gave to my pup while I was away. She kept me informed with many pictures and updates each day which I really appreciated. She paid great attention and followed all care instructions carefully. I enjoyed my vacation more knowing my pup was happy and in such good hands. We will use her again for sure and cannot recommend her enough!”
“Juan was ABSOUTLEY amazing! He went above and beyond to make sure my nephew Apollo’s was comfortable and loved. He also went even further resetting the whole house (cleaning dishes, comforter, etc.)! When ever Apollo is in VA I will always make sure I check if Juan is available first before looking for other sitters. Juan’s communication was also stellar! Sending pictures and constant contact which helped my anxiety tremendously. He followed my provided guide with flying colors and when Apollo got a little sick helped him back to perfect stool! Thank you so much Juan we really appreciate your care for animals and your attention to detail!”
“Sammi was wonderful. She agreed to sit for us at last minute over Christmas after a sitter on another site let us down. She was truly a lifesaver as I was panicking that I wouldn't have anyone to look after our cats while we were overseas for almost two weeks. She was wonderful with our three cats, one of which has a bit of a disability. She took it all in stride and followed instructions for food and meds to a tee. She stayed over most nights and left our house clean and tidy. We returned home to very happy cats. Sammi is trustworthy, reliable and a great communicator. She sent lots of photos and videos while we were away. I would not hesitate to recommend her. Thanks Sammi!”
“Renee was extremely attentive, caring, and thoughtful with our crew! She even managed to get some liquid meds in our old grumpy cat without much fuss! She is very responsive and we felt great on vacation knowing they were in such capable hands.”
“Absolutely fabulous! She is an outstanding communicator, sent tons of pictures, and took great care of an old dog and a neurotic one. 10000% would recommend and use again! 💕”
“Orianna was wonderful. Tater Tot felt very comfortable with her. He ran to her when she came to the door. She stayed overnight at our house and was a model guest! She even offered to take the trash out with her. How thoughtful.”
“Korrey was amazing! He was very attentive and understand with my concerns regarding general care, as well as my dog’s previous health issues. He kept me up to date with everything they were doing from her behavior, her day-to-day routine, etc.! He was extremely charismatic and went the extra mile for my girl. I will definitely be booking with him again when I need services!”
“Kayly is AMAZING!!! She house sat for us and always communicated through texts and pics to let us know how our doggo was doing. She took Rizzo for walks around the neighborhood, played fetch with her, snuggled; all the things our dog loves :) She went above and beyond and we will absolutely be reaching out to Kayly again when we are away.”
About: With over 10 years of pet care experience (and a lifetime of having pets of my own), I truly understand how important it is to find someone you trust. I’ve also cared for friends’ and family’s pets, giving me experience with a variety of personalities and needs. I offer flexible scheduling, plenty of play and attention, and top-quality care, so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away! I work fully remote, which allows me to be flexible and attentive to your pet’s specific bathroom and feeding routines. I’m available for boarding starting after 4pm on weekdays and after 12pm on weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I can easily crate your dog if needed and always follow your preferences and routines. I live on a quiet street with easy access to safe outdoor areas for regular potty walks and fresh air.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was young, and animals have always been a big part of my life. I’m currently a live-in nanny, and I also care for the family’s dogs. When their owners are away, the dogs stay with me and even sleep in my room so they feel safe and comfortable. I currently work part-time as a live-in nanny, which allows me some flexibility for pet care. However, I do have a busy schedule with regular dog-walking clients, so availability can vary. Please message me first to confirm scheduling before booking. I’ll always do my best to accommodate your needs if I have an open time slot. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every pet in my care. I carefully follow each dog’s routine, feeding instructions, and any special requirements provided by the owner.
“Ajia was amazing with our two boys. She is very communicative, leaving us with no worries during our trip, super responsive to our messages and took great care of my apartment. I think we found our permanent walker.”
About: I've been around pets my entire life. I grew up with at least two dogs in the household at all times and have learned to care for them as puppies until it was their time to go. I am often asked to care for family and friends' animals I work remote full time, so my availability is open. I can be available on short notice for anything from a simple walk around the neighborhood to overnight care. Like humans, pets have their personalities, and I will be sure to care for them. If they are energetic and love to play, so am I. If they are in their senior years, I will tend to their needs and give them what they need and deserve.
“Antonia did a great job with all of my pets. One of my cats threw a curveball and decided to hide even though she needed an important pill. Antonia was very patient with her and kept me informed the entire time. The house was clean and well looked after when I returned. I would definitely recommend Antonia and I plan to see if she's available for future trips!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and they have built me into the person I am today! The best parts of my days are taking them out on adventures, and I would love to do the same for your pets. I am a responsible, fun, and adventurous pet sitter, that would give your pets a great time. While I am home from college, I walk all of my dogs multiple times throughout the day and ensure that they are cared for satisfactorily. I also enjoy taking them on hikes and other outdoor adventures. The safety and comfort of your pet’s is my number one priority while sitting/walking. I respect your space and follow all instructions given very closely. I also pay close attention to your pet’s mood and behavior. I am extremely reliable when treating your home with care and your pets with the utmost respect.
“Daniel was great! Short notice availability. He was very accommodating with some minor last minute requests, and also when our relatives had to drop by a few times. Consistently sent (VERY adorable!) photos with a brief note/comment every day while we were on vacation. Was good about being communicative and responding to any questions as needed. House was left pretty clean when we came back. Highly recommend!!”
“Jennifer was fantastic! She went above and beyond with her communication and how she took care of Chase. I got constant updates and pictures. She was extremely attentive and took care of Chase like he was her own.”
Williamsburg pet parents share their Rover experiences
Renee was very attentive and enthusiastic. Heidi had a park walk, a visit to Renee’s home and to an outdoor bar during her overnight stay. She was attentive to my handout and left the house spotless. I was glad we had an early meet&greet, since she was unable to come when we departed but came later.
I may regret saying this because it could make it harder to book him in the future, but I can’t say enough good things about Leo! He was punctual, communicative, flexible, and genuinely kind throughout the entire experience. He has a calm, friendly nature that immediately put both me and my dog at ease. My Ollie is still generally cautious around strangers, but with Leo it was completely different. The moment Ollie spotted him from a distance, he was excited instead of fearful. He immediately approached him with confidence and comfort, which is incredibly rare for him. Watching that instant connection gave me complete peace of mind. It’s not often you find someone who is not only reliable and professional, but who also has such a natural connection with animals. I would absolutely trust Leo with Ollie again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.
Katherine took care of our dog in our home while we were away - if she had not been available we wouldn't have booked the tickets. The steady stream of communication, pictures and reassurances (our dog is not the easiest to care for) were amazing. We came home to a healthy and happy dog - who didn't seem to have overly missed us if I'm honest - and tidy home - with flowers on the table to welcome us back. We couldn't be happier with - well - literally everything about how she looked after our dog.
We have a senior dog with stranger anxiety and multiple daily medications and Karuna was wonderful with him. She was really patient and gave him time to warm up to her during a couple meet and greet visits, and then followed his lead when she was house sitting to ensure he felt comfortable with her. Karuna was very communicative and provided frequent updates including photos so we could enjoy our time away, knowing that our dog was well cared for.
Kaylee is amazing! Moosha loves her, and she’s so easy to work with. She gives updates with fun photos and is just generally a good person. And I’ve been burned before with dog sitters, so my trust doesn’t come easy. But I trust my gut. I’ll definitely be a returning client.
Elizabeth is an amazing sitter! She watched our two dogs at our home, and provided exceptional care, with lots of regular updates. The dogs were very well cared for, with plenty of play time and puppy play dates. She clearly adores dogs and it shows! She also took great care of our home while we were away. Fantastic communication both before and during her stay. We absolutely will book with her again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.
Joanna stepped in to take over for another Dogsitter saving my vacation. The transition was seamless. Although I didn’t get the chance to meet Joanna before the sitting, I spoke to her in the phone for at least half an hour and felt very comfortable with her. She took excellent care of my Ozzie, and he even tried to run after her taxi as she rode away. To top it off Joanna washed her sheets and towels before departing. She is a gem whom I would definitely rebook!
We have worked with Raven multiple times in the past for dog walking, and this was the first time we had her stay overnight for house sitting / dog sitting. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for these services! Raven was prompt and trustworthy in her communication, giving us frequent updates and also leaving our home just as tidy as she found it. We know our pup is in great hands with Raven, and we’ve already booked her again for our next upcoming trip where we will need multiple days of overnight care.
The way I could not recommend Madilyn enough. She managed all 3 of our pups beautifully and always sent us pictures and updates while we were gone. She was so attentive and our dogs seemed so happy throughout her visit and when we got home. She is also amazing with big/high energy dogs. She also took great care of our home and made sure we came back to a clean place and happy pups. We will definitely be requesting her services again in the future.
Morgan was an incredible sitter. She house sat for 11 days and communicated with me twice a day — completely unprompted — always sending thoughtful updates and photos that gave me real peace of mind while I was away. She kept both the house and the cats exceptionally clean, and her updates included exactly the kind of details I was hoping for as a pet owner. Morgan truly understands what owners need to feel comfortable being away from their pets: reassurance that they’re safe, healthy, loved, and genuinely being paid attention to. Because of her care and professionalism, I was actually able to relax and fully enjoy my time away knowing everything at home was in great hands. I honestly wish I could hire her full-time as my cat nanny — she’s fantastic.
We had never used Rover before and weren't really sure what to expect, but Elena was amazing! She was very communicative and sent pics and updates everyday. When our contractor unexpectedly came to do some work on the house, she handled it beautifully. She even updated us on the contractor's coming and goings, which we very much appreciated. On top of all this, she took great care of our pup! Leaving your pet can be overwhelming, a little sad, and even make you feel a little guilty. Now we realize that we were leaving her with someone who truly cared for her just was much as we do. And that is a really good feeling. We felt that Elena really went above and beyond. We would love to use her again.
