“Having NEVER left my puppies before, I was hesitant and nervous to do so. Shania eased my concerns from the very beginning. I was literally in contact with her multiple times before my puppies were even in her care. I'm happy to say, ALL WENT WELL!!! I highly recommend Shania and can't wait to use her services again.”

“They took great care of our older dog. We could not have asked for a better first experience using Rover. Plenty of updates and we were able to relax and enjoy family vacation time knowing he was being well loved and cared for.”


“Tashaun was super responsive and sent pics daily that I appreciated very much! Also, I made a few changes and he was so flexible every time that I was able to spend more time with my family. Because of my experience with him, I’ll definitely book him again. Thank you Tashaun!!! ?”

About: I’ve cared for pets most of my life, especially dogs, and animals have always been a big part of my world. I’m currently a proud pet parent to a pug and a puggle, so I understand firsthand the daily routines, personalities, and special needs that come with caring for dogs of all kinds. I truly love animals and treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I also have experience administering medications and following specific care instructions, giving you peace of mind if your pet needs extra attention. My goal is to help other pet owners feel confident knowing their animals are in caring, capable hands and to make sure every tail keeps wagging. I work full time, but my schedule is flexible, allowing me to accommodate pet care throughout the week. I’m available most mornings before work, afternoons after work, and in the evenings. I also work from home one day a week, which gives me full flexibility that day for walks and drop-ins Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities during walks and drop-in visits. I follow all care instructions closely, use secure leashes and harnesses, and stay alert to surroundings at all times. During home visits, I respect your space, ensure doors and gates are secured, and make sure your pet is safe, calm, and well cared for.
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been my passion. I have hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, pigs, reptiles, birds, and even marine mammals such as dolphins and sea lions. I worked as a veterinary nurse for six years, so I have the knowledge and experience to recognize your pet’s individual needs and provide attentive, compassionate care. Whether your pet is young, senior, energetic, shy, or has special medical needs, you can trust that they will be treated like family while they’re in my care. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment where your pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I currently work remotely and have a flexible schedule to work with you and your pets needs. I can pop in when needed or can be available for pet sitting. Whatever your pet may need I can cater to. Whether it be walks, jogs, feeding, playing, medication administration or even pet sitting, I'm your gal.
“They were absolutely amazing!! Very clean loving environment!!! Very attentive and friendly instead of my fur baby feeling like he was being abandoned he was welcomed with open arms into their family, and he had his mini little vacation as well. They communicated every step of the way and sent lots of pictures and videos as well and follow the instructions perfectly to be honest I wasn’t sure if my fur baby was going to wanna come back home with me. He absolutely fell in love with this family. Would definitely recommend and will be using their services again!! 1000%”

“Gretchen and family took care of our dog Opie while we were visiting Williamsburg for 3 nights. We received updates of Opie's stay through pictures and text messages. Gretchen made sure to understand any of our concerns with Opie while she stayed away and was able to reassure us Opie was thriving and alleviate our worries. This allowed us to enjoy our vacation knowing Opie was in good hands. I highly recommend Gretchen.”

About: I’ve always grown up in a home with at least two animals, so caring for pets has been a natural part of my life. My experience goes beyond just dogs and cats—I’ve also cared for birds and bearded dragons, and I truly love animals of all kinds! I’m happy to meet you and your pet wherever you need the most support. I’m comfortable maintaining established training routines, keeping pet areas clean and organized, and providing extra care for senior or special-needs animals. This includes assisting with medications, helping navigate stairs, providing diaper changes when needed, and giving them the patience, attention, and comfort they deserve. Whether your pet needs a long walk, some playtime and cuddles, help sticking to their routine, or a little extra care and attention, I’m happy to help! I’m a college student with classes primarily in the mornings and typically finish in the mid-afternoon, giving me plenty of flexibility for pet care throughout the week. I’m available full-time on weekends and if needed during the week, I can often stop by in the early mornings, during lunch breaks, or in the afternoons to make sure your pets are happy and on schedule. I understand that every pet has a different routine, so I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits their needs. I’m also committed to communicating my class schedule and availability clearly and promptly, while making sure we’re on the same page about your pet’s care, routines, and expectations. Your pet’s well-being comes first, and I’ll make sure you feel confident knowing they’re in reliable and caring hands! I treat every pet and home with the same care, respect, and attention I would want for my own. Before each booking, I make sure I understand the pet’s routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, training expectations, and any special instructions. I would love to stop by and meet you and your pet prior to the booking if possible, putting faces to names. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything is kept clean and secure. I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. Depending on the service will dictate how much time in your space I will spend. I’m also comfortable caring for senior pets or animals who need extra assistance, including help with stairs, diapers, or medications. I’ll communicate with the owner throughout the booking and am happy to provide updates and photos so they know their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Erin and the family were great. I needed a sitter for Lyla on short notice and fortunately they were available. The day I picked Lyla up, she slept most of the rest of the day. I took that as a sign that she had a fun time. I would book them again if I have another occasion.”

About: I provide dependable, loving, and attentive care while treating every dog as if they were part of my own family. I understand that each pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to learn their individual needs. I am currently off on the weekends. I have a fulltime job during the week but have a flexible work schedule to assist with most needs. I have a fenced in backyard. And a nice neighborhood for walking dogs. I have one pet, she is a beagle and she loves other dogs.
“Ms. Mary is absolutely wonderful. This was our 2nd time dropping off our elderly dog and both times when we picked him up, he was in no hurry to leave. It is very obvious that our dog enjoys his time at Ms. Mary's home and is always well taken care of. Ms. Mary responds to texts promptly was so understanding whenever we had delays. You can tell how much she adores all canines. We are grateful to have connected with Ms. Mary! We have met 5 other Rover sitters in Virginia - Ms. Mary is our favorite, we will only seek her from now on ♡”
