Cat Sitting in Woodhouse Corner

“Emma is great! The kitties liked her (even the one who doesn’t really like people) and she took great care of them while we were gone for a long weekend. We’ll definitely be calling upon her for help in the future!”

Melissa D.

“Kirra was great! She sent very detailed messages every day while I was away and took great care of my cat. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pet while they are away”

Emily H.

“Meagan is nothing short of amazing! I have a golden retriever and a lab puppy and you can really tell she loves them both so dearly and they love her just a much! She does everything as we ask, always on time, and very easy to communicate with! She even bought my golden a present for his birthday 🥹 I can’t recommend Meagan enough and she will always be my first choice for a caretaker for my pups!”

“Steven is a wonderful pet sitter. He took great care of our cats while we were out of town, and provided daily updates and photos. We highly recommend him!”

Heather P.

“Gabrielle was amazing! We were out of the country and our pet sitter had to leave early on our last day as we were traveling back home. We worked everything out with Gabrielle through the app. She showed up when we needed her to, and she did everything we needed so we didn’t worry about our babies as we were traveling home. I will definitely use her again, and I would recommend her without hesitation. And our babies seemed to love her!”

“Karlie was so sweet and took such good care of my cat, Ralph. He really cuddled up to her which made me happy since it was my first time leaving him for a work trip. I will absolutely contact Karlie again for pet sitting! Thank you!”

About: With over ten years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds, I have developed a deep understanding of their unique needs and personalities. From playful puppies to senior cats, I provide attentive, compassionate care to ensure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and well-loved. My commitment is to treat each animal with the same respect and dedication I would give my own. I’m currently working part tome while also attending school but can provide frequent check ins for your pets while also provide house sitting on weekends if needed. I provide dependable in-home pet care, ensuring your pet feels safe and comfortable in their own familiar environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering medications, or simply offering companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is well cared for while you’re away.

“Leighanne is amazing and I highly recommend her for any of your pets needs. She’s friendly, warm and my dogs were immediately obsessed with her. She took amazing care of my babies and kept me updated during every visit. We will definitely be booking with Leighanne anytime we need a pet sitter!”

Chloe B.

“Highly recommend”

Michelle W.

“I've only used Paula once so far, but she was wonderful. Booked her for 7 days, and she was always on time or early. My dog, Sirius, can be a pain with new people and took him a bit to warm up. She took him on a walk, and he was hooked. I will definitely use again if she is available.”

Pete & Jessica Z.

“Shanna was absolutely great with our cat while we were away. She has excellent communication and always made us feel comfortable during drop-in visits by sending plenty of pictures and updates daily. We highly recommend Shanna and would definitely request her to pet sit again in the future.”

About: I’ve had experience watching dogs for my entire life. I know how to give medicine, including injections, to dogs and cats. I am also certified in first aid and have completed a “Stop the Bleed” course. I’m available most days with a few days notice. I am able to come over and walk your dogs or just spend time with your pets. I can easily come to you and do whatever is needed. Walks, feedings, etc. I am very attentive and love to play with your pets.

“She did a great job with my babies. I will definitely call her again. She also noticed I had dropped my purse outside after I left. She contacted right away and put it inside for me. That was extra awesome!”

Laurelyn B.

“Highly recommend! At the meet and greet she was so easy to talk to and our dog Luna loved her! While we were away I didnt worry if callie and luna were taken care of, she sent pictures of them getting all the love and attention. I think our house was cleaner than when we left too, 10/10 will be using every time we go out of town!”

About: I've grown up surrounded by animals my entire life, and that hands-on experience is what truly sets me apart. I was raised with three cats (2 indoor, 1 outdoor), caring for them from kittenhood all the way through end-of-life care, including demanding daily routines and administering medication. I also have two dogs of my own: a Mini Australian Shepherd I raised from a puppy and personally trained. He’s so smart he keeps me on my toes, which means I know exactly how to handle high-energy, high-drive breeds and the escape artists of the dog world. The other is a large pitty mix we adopted at age two who came to us with leash pulling, reactivity, excessive barking, and rough play habits, all of which I've worked through and successfully managed. I know how to confidently handle dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Beyond cats and dogs, I've owned two guinea pigs, a hamster, and fish, so I understand the specific and often overlooked needs of small pets too. I've also assisted my sister in fostering cats, many of whom were shy, post-surgical, or required medication and special feeding instructions, so I'm completely comfortable with pets that need a little extra patience and TLC. Most recently, I pet sat a kitten over spring break 2026, and I'm always happy to sit for other pet owners' animals as well. As a sophomore in Alpha Chi Omega, I bring the same reliability, respect, and communication to pet sitting that I bring to everything I do. I treat every pet as if they were my own, follow your routines to the letter, and love keeping owners in the loop with regular updates, photos, and videos, as often as you'd like. If you're looking for someone experienced, trustworthy, and genuinely passionate about animals, I'm your person! I currently only have one exam left, so my schedule is essentially wide open! I'm in Blacksburg and available May 9–12 and May 16–22, with virtually nothing on my plate during those windows. Whether you need someone for a full house sit, multiple check-ins throughout the day, early morning visits, or late night drop-ins, I can make it work. Flexibility is my strong suit right now, so don't hesitate to reach out no matter the timing or frequency! I'm happy to care for pets both in my home and in yours! For in-home sitting and visits at your place, I'm completely comfortable following whatever routine, rules, and setup you have in place, your home, your way. If you'd like your pet to stay with me, I welcome that too! Just note that I live in an apartment, so I don't have a fenced-in yard, but my complex has a dog park and is surrounded by beautiful neighborhood nature trails that are perfect for walks and exploring. I'd also ask that you send everything your pet needs along with them (crate, food/water bowls, bed, toys, leash, etc.) so they have the comfort of their own familiar belongings, which is honestly better for them anyway!

“Absolutely fantastic! She kept my daughter involved and up to date since I was out of the country. Great attention to detail and all the wants and needs of my baby! This was my first time with Briana and it was a long term, a full month, commitment. I am very pleased with her.”

About: Mike's first job was caring for his neighbors' pets. Mike has had pets since he was 10, and travelled around the world with his dogs and cats during his military career and regional sales role. Roscoe, Higgins, and Freyja are living the dream in the Pacific Northwest with frequent road (work) trips and cross-country visits to the family in Indiana and Massachusetts. Let me know if we can help you with your fur babies. Mike works from home and is an early riser. While the coffee is brewing, all the animals are waking up with bathroom breaks and breakfast. Mike walks Roscoe after breakfast and dinner. Since Roscoe is a senior, we frequently split the two meals into snacks and shorter walks. When the cats are interested, they climb into the backpacks and go see the world with us. I pay attention to the animals' behavior and routines. Consistency in feeding and bathroom breaks has made my pets very comfortable with my work and social routines. I have the flexibility to meet your routines and maintain the consistency you expect with your family while away from home. I recognize when it's time to stop playing, reduce the mileage, or go to the vet.

About: This house is only happy when pups are running around having fun. We have 3 friendly Australian Shepards that love playmates. Bear is 11 years old and Sundae and Irie are almost 5 years old. Our friends call this home, pup camp because they bring over their pups for the day for play dates when they are away from their homes for an extended amount of time. Prior to caring for your pup, we do request that there is a meet and greet to ensure that all get along. There's a large outdoor space for lots of playtime, a large fenced in yard with a pool that the pups are welcome to swim in. We go on frequent walks and have lots of play time outside so we get our exercise. We are experienced with caring for young pups, special needs and seniors along with administering medications and injections. If you hire us for drop ins or walks, you can ensure that your fur baby will get lots of loving attention, playtime, walked and feed or medicated if needed. Update: no longer accepting new clients for boarding or day care as our Sunday's anxiety and uncomfortable levels are increasing with the new fur baby faces coming and going. We think she has reached her limit. However, open to previous clients.We provide doggy boarding to 1 family at a time up to 2 pups. Your fur babies are treated and loved as our own so we insist on meet & greets..to make sure everyone/pup feels at home. The same is true for doggy daycare....but ask about daycare discounts! Currently a stay at home dog mom! I also spend time caring for friends pups throughout the week...just call me dogma! Schedule is flexible and open. For daycare, drop ins and walks 6:30am-6pm We have a large fenced in yard, swimming pool and dog crate. We play a lot and go on long walks. Friends pups come hang out so there as ample socialization

“Wow…. I don’t even know where to begin so I’ll start by saying that Devi is amazing, reliable, trustworthy, and an excellent communicator. I just spent two weeks in Thailand and almost cancelled my trip due to a lack of kitty care. Thankfully, I heard about Rover, and all though hesitant, I spent a day scouring all the reviews for sitters in my area and finally found Devi. She was quick to respond and we set up a meet and greet shortly thereafter. Blue, who is naturally shy, made a friend right away and enjoyed each of his afternoon visits. Devi also made sure to send multiple pictures from each visit and even cleaned up a container of spoiled milk that exploded while I was away (I know…. I meant to empty the fridge before heading out of town). All around, an incredible person and care giver for your pet!”
