About: I’ve taken care of a wide variety of pets over the last 10 years from high medical risk, kittens/puppies, seniors and various behavioral situations. I’ve loved animals my whole life and consider it a pleasure to care for your fur-babies I’m capable of caring for multiple animal households and caring for pets with medication needs. I currently work part time from home as a graphic designer leaving me plenty of free time to watch over your pets and the availability for frequent stop ins! I always stick to the schedule your pets are accustomed to, I know leaving your pet can cause them some anxiety so I will maintain any sense of normalcy for them that I can!
About: I am very flexible with hours. I am an active person and happy to play with your pet and walk them as much as needed. I grew up in the cold, so weather doesn't bother me walking or driving. I also am willing to work with your hours and do what is best for your pet. I also am always happy to send pictures and check in so you know they are living your best life. I can be flexible but I am a morning person so early walks are okay with me. I can also drop in easily through the day with little issue. I grew up with large dogs (lover (100lbs) and 2 cats, and am the current owner of a Bernese Mountain dog who I love. I love all animals but tend to lean to bigger dogs. I like cats butdon't currently own one due to my husband. I am newer to rover but have spent a lot of time caring for my own pets but also dog sitting for others in their homes over the last 7 years.
“Absolutely amazing experience. Work and day to day has been made so much more enjoyable and I have so much appreciation for the patience my pup is experiencing. I will be a regular for quite some time. Thank you again Phyllis!”
“Darnell has been wonderful. He has communicated well and his very respectful/trustworthy to my house. Aurora is also enjoying her time as well(she looks for walks around the same times during the weekends when it’s just us).I’m thankful for Darnell and recommend him for your pet care needs.”

I also take in my best friend's older pit bull, Cookie, and her and Maverick get along wonderfully!

About: I love dogs, they are my favorite people. All shapes and sizes, whenever I spend time with them, they just make my heart happy. When they’re with me they’ll be taken good care of. Whether it’s long walks, games of tug of war, endless belly rubs, and lots of cuddles. I will love your pet as if they were my own. In addition to raising two dogs of my own, I’ve cared for friends and neighbors’ pets while they’re at work or away. I know how hard it is to leave your pet behind whether it’s while you’re at work or on vacation but when they’re with me you won’t have to worry because they’ll be well cared for and loved. I work full time Monday through Friday from 8am-5pm but only live 5 minutes from my work. I am able to go home midday and have evening and weekends free to spend lots of time with your fur babies. I make sure that they will remain on they’re regular feedings and pawty schedules and are free to run the apartment if no need to crate. My apartment provides a fenced in yard for them to have safe and fun outdoor time. I work full time Monday through Friday from 8am-5pm.

About: I’ve had all types of breeds and sizes growing up! From german shepherds, to goldens, to mixed breeds from the shelter. I’ve learned their tricks and how to cater to each personality! I’m an Army officer looking to fill her time with furry friends! I’m always available after 1800 everyday (I’m at work from 0530-1700) and weekends of all times are free! I treat every home with respect and cleanliness as I enter/move about/exit! It’s important that the dog/cat feels safe in their own home as I care for them in whatever way!
“Thank you so much for taking care of our dogs again and for doing it on such short notice! It’s so nice having someone so reliable and trustworthy. I know they’re already looking forward to your next visit!”
About: I grew up in a household full of animal friends of all different kinds, and I now have 4 cats, 4 chickens, and tortoise in the family. The love I got from my pets as a kid inspired me to work as a zookeeper, wildlife rehabilitator and now a park ranger. I had the privilege of working for a pet sitting company two years ago and I am currently looking to meet new fuzzy friends in VA. I am currently working a 9-to-5 job but I am looking to take in some clients after work and on my days off. I will do my best to meet your needs. When I come into your home I am a guest. I make sure to read any and all body language your animal is giving and adjust my behavior to fill their needs.
About: Hi! I’m Charlie and I’ve always loved animals, honestly probably more than people and I do like people just not as much as pets 🐾 I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I treat every animal like they’re my own and I’m really attentive to their routines, comfort, and little details that keep them happy. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m reliable, communicative, and will keep you updated so you always feel at ease. Your pet is family and I’ll treat them that way 🤍 I work remotely so I am pretty flexible. On the weekends I am free, during the week I can adjust my schedule based on the pet(s) needs. I have pet sat for several people before and I am experienced with all types of breeds and animals. From scooping litter boxes to taking dogs for a walk I can do any tasks.
Woodvale dog parents share their Rover experiences
Lindsey is fantastic! She instantly connected with my chonky boys. I have listed below the specific benefits or individual traits Lindsey clearly demonstrated throughout our communication and her services that were above and beyond the standard. -- reliable/dependable -- consistent -- punctual -- efficient communication, clear, well in advance, always responsive -- extremely honest and upfront -- above and beyond effort (gave them water outside, cleaned their paws, etc) -- always goes the extra mile to make sure walks are fun, safe, and tailored to my dog’s needs (she even texted me asking their preferences for where to go and was worried they weren't having enough fun hahahah - I had to explain that they we have a nonconsensual diet plan that was just started by the vet and they've been grumpy about everything 😂) Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, dedicated, active, caring and professional dog lover! She's also just wonderfully kind and friendly - super easy to work with! Appreciate her and will definitely book again!
