“We were very nervous for this trip because this was the first time leaving our dogs with someone other than family. Linda was great and very reassuring. She sent us pictures throughout the day and gave us updates on how they were doing. My older dog doesn’t like strangers and Linda was able to come him down. During the two meetings before we went away, Linda remained calm and Koda warmed up to her pretty quickly. Both dogs seemed like they had a great time while we were away! Would 100% use Linda again and recommend her to others!”



“I feel so lucky to have found Sydney! She's so patient and gentle with my timid girls. She is a true professional and takes her job seriously. She even left treats for the girls after she left. I will definitely be calling Sydney back again soon! ”


“Anna did a great job taking care of our Riley. Let us know when she arrived and left and sent updates and pics throughout the visit. Enjoyed our trip so much more knowing Riley was in such good care🤎”


“Cheyenne was a great help when we needed a very last minute in-home pet sitter for our dog! She was communicative and very sweet with our pup. We could tell he was well cared for, as was our home!”


“Just completed our second booking with Ehlaura and have another one already scheduled. She is amazing with our boys and she keeps us up to date throughout our time away. Highly recommend!”


“Jenna was very accommodating to our last minute need for a sitter. We have two fairly large dogs and she got a long great with both! She was punctual and sent photos daily. I would absolutely use Jenna again.”


“Finding Ashley was a HUGE relief. This is our first time using Rover and leaving our pets and home to a sitter. Throughout the process Ashley provided excellent communication and comfort. Our animals and home were well taken care of. We’ve already arrange two additional services with her. Thank you for everything Ashley!”


“Monique was easy to work with both in meeting prior to the stay and during. She was very communicative, sent lots of photos and updates, and most importantly, the pups had fun! The house was left clean and I could tell she was respectful of our home. Would book again with confidence!”


“We've had less than positive experiences with boarding in the past and our dogs are a rambunctious bunch. They need constant supervision to keep them and the wildlife in our yard safe so house sitting is our only option. Macy took care of everything, stayed for the whole long weekend, and we came home to untraumatized dogs. Would definitely book again!”


“Thank you Rhea my fur baby’s never missed a beat , it was an easy transition. Rhea was on time sent plent of fur babies pics have fun. She cuddled my babies treated like they were her own. I highly recommend Rhea for house sitting. Even when one of my fur babies had an accident she cleaned up with no hesitation. We truly ❤️You for your outstanding service. I can tell you truly love ? what you do. Thanks The Canady’s”

“Caitlin helped us out last minute and was extremely accommodating to our senior dog with anxiety. She shared pictures and her response times were great. We will definitely use her again in the future!”


“Trenton was an absolute lifesaver! We’ve had some disappointing experiences with sitters on this app recently ranging from not following instructions to doing quick 30-minute drop-ins when we specifically requested house sitting. Trent completely restored our faith in Rover. He followed all of our instructions to the letter, took excellent care of our dog Thor, and even kept our home clean and organized, something we haven’t experienced with past sitters. We truly appreciate his reliability and professionalism. We will most definitely continue using his services.”

She was able to meet all their needs including administering medication for one of them and she left the house was neat and tidy. I would definitely recommend her and would also use her again.”


“Kacie was wonderful, she took great care of my pups! She communicated with me throughout her stay and sent me pictures. She was also very responsive when I messaged her. She was very thorough to make sure she understood their routines and needs and l felt very comfortable having them in her care. I would certainly recommend her to anyone looking for great pet care and plan to book her in the future.”



“Symone was absolutely amazing. All the dogs warmed up to her quickly. She was very attentive to all their needs to include endless puppy snuggles. She checked in regularly sending picture updates. I would use her again and would recommend her!”


About: I've loved animals since I was a kid and have cared for many throughout my life! I was tasked with raising my family dog since she was a puppy when I was in high school, and I helped my college roommate with her puppy! I have walked/boarded many dogs and cats since moving to Virginia! Being in the military, my coworkers travel a lot so I have become the workplace's go-to "pet auntie." I genuinely love to spoil pets and providing them with a safe and homey environment while their loved ones are out! I have a fairly flexible work schedule so I can come back to my home or to your home to take care of your pet! Early morning, lunch, and evenings are especially free, so I can work around that depending on your needs. I do not own pets, so they will be here as a single child in the case they are boarded! Crates, food, litter boxes, etc will need to be provided as I don't own those things. I have access to many parks around my neighborhood, so walkability is not an issue!

“Ashley was a wonderful sitter! She was very responsive and sent tons of pictures of my two dachshunds. She took such good care of the girls while we were away. We’d love to have her back anytime to sit for Harley and June. 🩷”
