House Sitting in Woodbridge

About: I grew up with three big beautiful dogs. Since then, I fell in love with dogs and learning about them. I finally adopted my own almost 5 years ago and it’s been a trip! I think every dog has different needs and I apply all the training, games, walks, mental stimulation and even cooking that I’ve been learning from them. I think good care is more than just walks. They are loving and I’m here for all they need to be balanced, fulfilled and HAPPY. Completely free early mornings, afternoons and weekends. I take my own dog for an early morning walk before work and make sure she is ready for some time alone while my wife and I work. We live in a beautiful apartment complex with tons of nature, dog park and plenty of areas to walk. We usually get in the car and take the dogs to play at bigger parks, the beach, hikes… wherever can be to give them new experiences!

“This was my first time using Rover, and let me just say Kortni took away all of the worries and anxiety that I had. She is truly one of a kind. She sent pictures and updates throughout the entire trip. You can see the love she has for pets! I would highly recommend her to anyone! She’s the best!”

“Laura watched our dog at our home while we were away for a few days. She did an excellent job with our dog and treated our home with respect. We will definitely reach out in the future when we can't bring our pup on trips! Highly recommend Laura”

“I could not be more pleased with McKenna watching my Lily! She accommodated a last-minute request, and I am so grateful she was available. My Lily can be a handful at times, but she took to McKenna, relaxed, and was a very good girl. I received photos and updates while away, which put me at ease so I could fully enjoy my time away from my fur baby. McKenna is such a lovely, sweet young woman who clearly loves and knows how to care for pets. I felt great having her in my home watching over my sweet, sometimes not-so-sweet, Lily. I would contact McKenna again without hesitation. She is amazing!”

“Megan was great with our dogs; they presented some unexpected behavioral challenges and Megan was able to problem solve and keep everyone safe and well in our absence. Thanks, Megan!”

“It was a very nice experience having Veronica cat sit my two fur babies. She was very good at communicating and very responsible! My cats really took to her fast, considering I have one that is very cautious around new people, was warming up to her quickly. When I came home things felt very good, the cats seemed happy and things went very smooth overall! I felt I could trust her so I was at ease while away! Will call again! :)”

About: I am a veterinary technician, currently studying to be a vet that loves to take care of pets. I am great in case of emergencies I am at school and I’m home all day as I do online schooling for now. I am available whenever you are. Always ready to work I own a house with a fence big backyard and plenty of space to play . I can drive to your house or whatever works for you.

About: I’ve supported pet owners by providing reliable care that focuses on routine, safety, and comfort. I’ve worked with pets of varying energy levels and personalities and understand how consistency, patience, and clear communication help animals feel at ease while away from their owners. My availability allows me to dedicate consistent time throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and extended care. I plan my day carefully to ensure pets receive dependable attention without feeling rushed or overstimulated. I prioritize clear routines, secure spaces, and careful supervision. I follow instructions exactly as provided, keep environments clean, and remain observant of behavior changes so pets stay safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times.

“Tara is wonderful. She takes great care of our senior dog, sending updates and pictures daily. She also takes incredible care of our home - it is always spotless when we return. She was super flexible when we had to change travel plans last minute. I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I've been a petsitter since middle school. I've looked after cats and dogs both young and old, large and small. I'm very flexible and I take special care to keep each pet I care for comfortable and happy. I'm not currently employed, so I have plenty of time. I prefer late hours, but I can handle early risers too. I have a club event every second and fourth Tuesday; otherwise I'm fairly flexible with my activities. I will meet your pet wherever they are. If they need affection, I can give it; if they need space, I can give it. I put their well-being first, no matter what. If they make a mess, I will clean it up.

About: New to Rover✨ I had dogs of my own when I was 11 and I absolutely adored them. I was always happy to take care of them. I have also dog sat for my family’s friend active pup from time to time. Now, I have been doing drop in visits to another family friend’s new cat 🐈‍⬛ and I loved the experience so much that I want to take it on the road!! I am currently free all day. Usually I am home or I go on an adventure walk/ bike ride and would love to bring your pup/ kitty member along :). I am flexible to suit your needs and make it easier for you and your companion. I would love to know your companion’s daily routine as well to ensure a smooth and relaxing day for them. **A meet-up prior to service is offered** I have a pretty open living space in my townhouse. My community has lots of dogs and cats so it is very pet friendly and safe! We even have an open grass area to walk/play (on a leash). I am super excited to house/drop-in/ day sit your furry/feline friend!!

“You did an Excellent job with our boys. They were Happy and Content when we returned. We appreciated all the pictures and updates along the way. We definitely would like to use you again. Thank you for a great job.”

About: I love animals and have experience working with and sitting for a wide range of them, including dogs, cats, and small or exotic animals. I myself have owned over twenty parrots (currently have two in the aviary!) and have extensive experience with fishkeeping — I have four cycled, walstad fish and shrimp tanks! I can walk your dog, clean your cat’s litter box, and even do water changes for your fish if needed! Anything to make sure your little guys are well cared for! I’m a graduate social work student who will be free over the summer, so my schedule is flexible until August. I can make myself available as needed. My own pets are given daily care. I own several disabled animals who require special care in order to get around and eat on their own. I currently have two budgies in a large cage l and two betta fish, each in 5-10 gallon tanks. The parrots are allowed to free fly for most of the day, but they will be put away when your pets are being boarded. In your home, I try not to disturb or move anything that’s not necessary. I’ll make use of only what’s given to me with regards to caring for your pet — but I do reserve the right to cuddle your pet a little more!

About: I've taken care of dogs (either my own or pet-sitting) for the past 15 years. I have had many friends and family members rely on me to keep their pets fed, walked, played with, and loved while they are out! I also have experience with senior dogs, giving medication etc. My work schedule is fairly flexible, so it's super easy for me to fit pet care into my daily/weekly routines! I keep my home clean and safe for pups to venture around. I will send lots of pictures so you know your pet is happy and well taken care of. I have a fairly flexible full time job where I am able to work from home as needed. Additionally, when I need to be in person it is usually only for a few hours maximum. So I have plenty of time to be playing with and caring for your pups! I live in a very walkable neighborhood with lots of great spots for fur babies to use the bathroom and get their exercise in! I spend a lot of time after initial drop off trying to make your pet as comfortable and relaxed as possible! I'll also send you lots of pictures to alleviate some of the stress of leaving your pup with someone else. I spend a lot of time giving the pets I care for the same love and attention they would receive at home.

“Irina is an awesome sitter! Came over a few days before our event to meet our dog; she asked great questions, wrote down my answers and got a long great with our dog. She walked her multiple times, played with her in the our yard, and sent lots of photos. She was flexible with the end time, as we were attending an event and were not sure of when it would end. Thanks so much Irina!”

“Vivian is the absolute best. In the years that we’ve had our girls, we had never left them alone, so we were anxious about finding a sitter to trust with them. From the moment we met Vivian we felt at ease. The way ours girls cozied up to her, we could tell she was the right choice. During our trip, Vivian took amazing care of our girls and our home. She provided us with photos and videos multiple times a day as well as a daily report each night. Vivian is the best sitter anyone could ask for and we will definitely be contacting her again for any future trips we plan to take. Book her to sit your pets - you won’t regret it. Thank you Vivian!!”

“My wife and I just had Jennifer stay with our dog for the very first time …. it was perfect! Wylie and Jennifer got along great! Jennifer made him feel loved and comfortable. Wylie has a strong attachment to my wife, but Jennifer won him over. While the Rover website is great and easy to work with, Jennifer walked us through the process, explained what she could do and made us feel good about leaving Wylie in the hands of a complete stranger (a stranger no more). We were equally impressed with how well Jennifer treated our home. We were gone overnight and Jennifer stayed with Wylie in our home. There is no question that I very highly recommend Jennifer to anyone who is the least bit nervous about having a pet-sitter. We plan on using her every chance we get!”
