“Nicole went above and beyond to take care of our boy while we were out on vacation for 2 weeks. She is sweet, reliable and communicative. Our dog is forever in love with her. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a good walker/sitter.”
About: I have experience rescuing cats and dogs and administering medication. I’ve also done house sitting and pet sitting for several homes. I enjoy running and playing with dogs to keep them active and happy, and I can also help them stay calm when needed. I offer walks up to 1 hour and can safely handle up to 3 dogs at a time. I’m comfortable cleaning up after pets, changing diapers if needed, and giving medication. I work Mondays and Wednesday–Friday from 7 to 3, and Saturdays from 3 to 11pm. I’m free all day on Tuesdays and Sundays 😊 I adapt to each home and follow the owner’s preferences and routine for their pets. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for, whether that includes walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or keeping their space clean. I always adjust to each pet’s personality and needs.
About: I love all animals! I grew up with family dogs, and I have done petsitting for puppies and elderly dogs for friends and family, and seasonally worked on a farm where I worked with guardian dogs, sheep, cows, and chickens. I'd be so excited to take care of your pets with the love and affection they deserve! I work on weekends, so I'm available for dog walking during the day Monday-Thursday for the most part. Would love to walk dogs or sit for them in your home! Unfortunately my home can't accommodate animal boarding. I love to give animals affection and proper care. Good outside time, exploring, playing, and order are all important for making animals feel safe and secure.
About: I love animals, have grown up with dogs and cats, and have been fostering cats for the last 5 years, I including administering all sorts of medicine to cats and kittens. I work from home and go on daily walks, so why not take your pup for a walk as well! I also love to travel and am happy to help other people travel by helping take care of their fur family. I’ve been fostering cats and kittens for over 5 years, and have absolutely loved helping these animals find loving homes. I don’t currently have any animals of my own, which can help make your animal feel comfortable in my home if necessary. I understand a lot of animals require patience and space to warm up, and am happy to work with their comfort level.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. Each one with their own personalities and quirks! There is nothing more pure than the love of a dog. They are only a chapter in our lives but we are their entire book! We have to make it count!💖 I am semi retired and am looking to spend time around animals. I also enjoy the outdoors and walking so this fits PERFECTLY for me! And no one loves animals more than me! I will care for your baby’s special needs! Walks and talks and belly rubs! I have a fenced in yard as well. I will be their new favorite human!
About: I have loved animals all my life, and my experience has ranged from caring for my own pets, to short-term and long-term fostering for friends and military families. I have cared for dogs, cats, hamsters, lizards, bunnies, birds and small livestock. I love them and treat them all as though they are my own. I am currently a currently a stay at home mom, and my children are now all school-aged. I care for my animals at home, and I have an open schedule, heart, and home to care for other animals. I have a about 1.3 acres of land with a dedicated (vinyl) fenced in area for dogs so I have plenty of room for outdoor playtime. Indoors, a few of my animals are crated at night based on their individual needs but all walk freely during the day. In your home, I am open to whatever is most comfortable for your pet.
About: I’ve dog sat for family, friends, and clients that resided in Philadelphia, New Jersey, and Virginia. My clients have relied on me to check on, walk, and feed their little family members. I have a little bundle of joy named Mochi. Taking care of him is my favorite thing to do. He makes me realize that I have what it takes to care for pets of all different backgrounds. :) I’m currently working transitioning into a new job and looking to use all my free time to take care of your little family member!❤️🐱🐶 🏡 Trust, Safety & A Comfortable Environment 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities!

I’ll follow your instructions closely, respect your home and routines, and make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, supervision, and care. You can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in a safe and loving environment while you’re away. ❤️🐶🐱
About: My family has had dogs forever, ranging from small medium and large so growing up with all kinds of dogs has given me experience in how to handle any situation with any dog! I’m currently a college student and away from my dog at home and am looking for any way to have more interactions with pets. Also, my most recent dog is now 2 years old and I did the majority of training, so if there are any needs or wants for training while I am sitting, I am more than capable. I’m currently a full time student and on the William & Mary Varsity Men’s soccer team, however, I have many breaks throughout my day. The only block of the day I’m usually completely unavailable is from 2-6PM When caring for pets in clients homes you can expect the utmost respect for the home but also a willingness to learn how you usually handle your dog at home. Whether that is using the crate and having some more strict guidelines, or if it is a more relaxed environment.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and have been around dogs since I was a baby. I’ve worked as a volunteer in dog shelters such as Operation Kindness and SPCA since I was 8 years old. I’ve walked dogs, trained puppies, and have worked with old, young, big, and small dogs. I should be pretty flexible on walking times, I am usually free any time I am not In class and can do every single day in the afternoon. Mornings depends on the day. I will make sure the dog has time to get to know me before I walk them. I will make sure they are comfortable with me. And I will definitely give the dogs lots of love on our walks.
“Nichole is fantastic! She takes such good care of my fur baby, communicates so promptly, and shares lots of pictures! She’s a pro!!! I never worry about my pup when she’s checking in on him and taking care of him!”
About: I have raised and my own boxer/lab since she was 6 weeks. She is now turning 7 and has a sweet kitty brother! I trained her myself and is a very confident, well mannered pup. I grew up with animals, have pet sat for many friends, and understand the individual care and understanding that each pet deserves. I work from home, (Mon - Fri) so my schedule is very flexible. I can easily adapt my schedule to your pets needs and be there when you want. I prioritize safety and trust by following the owner’s instructions, ensuring the pet’s comfort, and maintaining a hazard-free environment. I respect the home, clean up after myself and the pets, and communicate updates promptly so you your pet is happy!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Williamsburg
As my dog gets older, his care has become more specialized, so I’ve become much more discerning when it comes to finding someone I can truly trust with him while I’m away. I feel incredibly lucky to have found Kate on Rover. Kate watched my dog for an entire week while I was out of town, and during that time, he unfortunately became sick and also started acting out in ways that were out of character for him. Kate was immediately on top of everything. She kept me informed whenever something happened, reassured me when he was improving, and was incredibly proactive about finding creative solutions to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for. Knowing that Kate was attentive to his needs and genuinely cared about him took an enormous amount of stress and worry off my shoulders. I never had to wonder whether he was in good hands, as I knew he was. Kate was truly one of the best decisions I could have made for my dog. She is attentive, caring, knowledgeable, communicative, and incredibly thoughtful. Most importantly, she gave me something that is priceless when you’re away from your pet: complete peace of mind. I would recommend Kate wholeheartedly to anyone looking for someone they can genuinely trust with their dog. She is wonderful!

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
