Doggy Day Care in Roanoke

“Samantha has been so sweet and loving to my girl, Bella ? I especially enjoy and appreciate the pictures and updates she gives throughout the day. 10/10 recommend.”

“Kimberly was absolutely phenomenal and so kind! Our senior fur baby has a lot of extra needs, so we’ve always put date days aside to ensure we wouldn’t have to leave her home alone. From the first text interaction with Kimberly to meeting in person - we knew that we found someone we could trust! We got picture updates throughout the day, and each care instruction we provided was taken very serious. We will definitely be trusting Kimberly with our fur baby in the future. Thank you SO much!”

“Very friendly and good communication. My pup had some play buddies and plenty of nappy spots including her favorite window watching. Plenty of toys to play with and other pups to play with as well.”

About: I have 2 dogs. One is a senior Shih Tzu and one is a one year old mix. They both get along well with dogs and cats. I have had dogs my whole life and will treat yours as my own.. I work remotely and I'm home most all day. I have 3 kids who also love dogs and cats. I have a fenced in back yard with lots of room to run and play. My dogs love meeting and playing with new friends! I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I am highly attentive, and your pet will have a great time and love being in my care.

“I couldn't ask for a better dog sitter. Marah will love your dog as if it was her own and I feel so comfortable dropping my pup off at her place. She is a gem of a person!”

“Josh and the family did a great job keeping the boys today and they had a great time.”

“When I first used Rover to find a dog walker for my 5-year-old husky, I was a bit apprehensive but Aelish quickly put my worries to rest. From the moment she arrived at our doorstep, Aelish was confident and warmth. Her genuine love for dogs was evident, and our husky sensed it too. Here’s why Aelish stood out: Reliability: Aelish was never late for a walk. Rain or shine, she showed up with a smile, leash in hand, ready to take our husky on an adventure. Knowing that Aelish was dependable made my daily routine much smoother. Attentiveness: Aelish paid attention to the little details. She noticed when our husky hesitated near a squirrel or when he preferred a certain route. Her patience and understanding of was impressive. Communication: Aelish kept me informed throughout each walk. Whether it was a quick text to let me know they were heading to the park or a photo update of our husky happily trotting along, I appreciated her thoughtful communication. Safety First: Aelish was cautious and safety-conscious. She ensured our husky was securely leashed, avoided busy intersections, and knew basic commands. It was clear that she genuinely cared about his well-being. Extra Mile: Aelish went beyond the call of duty. On scorching summer days, she carried a collapsible water bowl and made sure our husky stayed hydrated. She even brushed his fur to keep him looking his best. Bonding Time: Aelish didn’t just walk our husky; she bonded with him. Their walks became moments of joy and companionship. Our husky’s tail wagged enthusiastically whenever he saw her approaching. In summary, Aelish isn’t just a dog walker; she’s a trusted person for our husky. Her dedication, kindness, and genuine love for animals make her an invaluable part of our dogs and our lives. If you’re looking for someone who treats your furry friend like family, Aelish is the one.”

“Melissa is on time and very responsible. She loves animals and they love her back. She will provide great care and is trustworthy and responsible. Your fur babies will love her and so will you!”

“Paula is great. Our little guy was happy and relaxed when I picked him up. She sent pictures and updates, which made it much easier for us! Thank you! Looking forward to our next visit!”

“I started a new job about an hour from where I live and had Michele watch my dog all day while I was in training. Michele seemed responsible, and she immediately established a good rapport with Kima. She sent me a text with a report on how Kima was doing, as well as a pic of Kima lounging in Michele’s house. Michele also took Kima on a good walk. I am using Michele again next week.”

“Karly is amazing! I've been using her for about 3 weeks now and she is extremely flexible during pickup/drop off times for doggy daycare and my dog loves her. She is also very responsive if you ever have to reach last minute.”

About: I grew up with dogs and many cats from the time I was a baby into adulthood and am a lover of all animals. As someone with animals, I will treat your furbabies like they are family! I have volunteered at various animal shelters including Angels of Assisi (Roanoke, VA), LASPCA (New Orleans, LA), and Animal Haven (New York, NY) with a total of five years experience. During that time I walked dogs of all ages, cleaned kennels, fostered and got to see some amazing animals find their "furever" homes. I love staying active so I am absolutely able to take more energetic/active/young dogs on walks to get out all of that stored energy! I work remotely and have a flexible schedule. My calendar reflects by full availability and I am always keeping it up to date. Take a look! I cannot host dogs overnight but am happy to do doggy daycare but I have experience with overnight stays! I am an earlier riser and will make sure your fur babies are fed and walked first thing in the morning. I always clean up after myself and make sure I leave your home spotless and your fur babies cared for.

“Aran was great while looking after my dog for three days! Very knowledgeable and patient, as well as flexible. Would absolutely recommend and will be my go-to person for doggy day care in the future.”

“Sailor and I both took to Bailey immediately—I for her great communication skills and enthusiasm, and Sailor because he can sense people who love him right away! I felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care, and I think he was sad to leave her when we picked him up eight hours later. She sent pictures, fed him, walked him several times, and even let him sleep on her couch! She responded quickly to all texts and kept us up to date on his activities. I highly recommend her as a sitter!”

“Garrett is a caring and compassionate person. He truly loves fur babies. I have personally seen him go out of the way to see/care for cats and dogs. He has been visiting Joro (a sweet black cat) of his neighborhood. He is caring towards joro, he plays with him and you can see true joy From Garrett’s face when he is around any animals. I have also seen him dog sit syble (a sweet puppy) of his friend’s. He is loving towards her and she gets so excited when he is around. There is no better person than Garrett to be a loving pet caregiver.”

“Rene is such a sweetheart and was wonderful with our pups! She sent photos while we were gone and they looked so happy. She is a fantastic communicator and we would absolutely use her again if we need a dog sitter. Thank you Rene!!”

“Mia watched our kitten for a week. She is a kind, careful, and reliable pet sitter. She asked questions and was interested in our kitten, including safety and preferences for play, sleeping arrangements etc. She's a great pet sitter for animals who are sensitive, young, or needing a gentle touch. She has a special connection with pets. We highly recommend Mia!”

Now my husband Cody and I have the sweetest cavalier king charles spaniel (Malcolm!) and have experience with taking care of puppies and dogs that are full of energy. I am a medical student who has a hybrid schedule of in person learning and at home self-study. Cody works from home and loves spending time with Malcolm or any Rover friends that come visit. I have house that has a large fenced-in yard, and we frequent the Greenway in case your dog who prefers longer walks! We have no children in the house. My dog Malcolm is very friendly, and dogs are welcome on our furniture.

“Mazie felt very comfortable with Heidi right away. We did a meet and greet a week prior to ease my nerves as well. I got an update part-way through her daycare visit and she was a happy pup when I returned. I plan to use Heidi again.”
