“Kade has been the absolute best for us! Prompt with responses and always sends amazing check-in photos! Will always book with them and recommend to anyone! Thank you so much, Kade!!”
“Absolutely wonderful with my girl! My timid pup warmed right up to her, which usually does NOT happen so quickly, and loved the company. Kyla was responsive, communicative and was really great working with. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Elijah was very reliable and did a fantastic job of communicating from the first time I reached out to him about sitting. He took lots of photos and wrote notes that made it clear exactly how our cats were doing while we were away. Will definitely ask him to watch them again!”
“Kristen is a gem of a person and so attentive to our dog, Skye. She sends lots of updates and pictures and is also very funny. She is great to work with and I totally trust her with our furbaby.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we are so glad we found Jeffrey. He took such great care of our diabetic cat so we could rest easy on vacation.”
“I’m so glad I chose to book with Devinder! I’ve been blown away by his responsiveness, flexibility, communication, and clear love for pets :) He’s very professional, but also comes across like a friend who’s always down to help you out and care for your pets like they’re his own. I trust him with my pets for the long haul!”
“Hollie took Tater for a walk, checked on the kitties, cleaned the litter box and brought in my mail. Kept in touch with me and sent photos. They did a great job!”
“Sydney was awesome from beginning to end! She was immediately responsive, and helped to come up with a solution to care for our kitten when our plans changed slightly and we needed an extra day, even coordinating with another sitter on Rover to exchange the key! The pictures were fantastic, and she was so attentive that she even noticed a potential issue with our new kitty that we were able to quickly address upon return. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple breeds and of varying ages. I’ve also helped train my own puppy, as well as friends’ dogs, the basics like potty training, sit, etc. I’m quite comfortable with puppies under 1 year old all the way to our senior friends. I’m currently a full-time dog mom and pet caretaker. I just graduated from grad school and don’t start my new job until this fall, and I thought - what a better way to spend my summer off taking care of my favorite animal and helping other pet owners? I’m an open communicator and can be available how you need me with the proper heads-up! I live in an apartment building with my fiancé and our sweet, cuddly boy dog (neutered). There’s 3 parks within walking distance and a dog park just an 8min drive away. Since I live in an apartment, I would recommend only small to medium dogs stay with us, but I’m always willing to travel to clients’ houses for dogs of all sizes. I treat my clients dogs as if they were my own fur baby. The love, kindness, & attention I give my sweet boy is the same love, kindness, & attention your dog will receive. My friend is also a vet tech I can always reach out to for advice/questions and I myself am a certified (human) healthcare professional.
“I highly recommend Kay as an excellent cat-sitter! My grumpy cat was obviously comfortable with Kay from the start. I really appreciated receiving pictures and short commentary on their time together while I was away! Also, Kay approached all aspects of booking and logistics professionally and with good cheer.”
“Alexander was awesome! My silly, hyper pup warmed up to him well and he made sure my big oy was taken care of without any deviations from our routine. I will be planning on booking Alexander soon!”
“Andrew has been by far the best dog walker you could ask for. Always going above and beyond. He literally offered to install the portable AC in my house while I was at work and the AC went out. Leaving Richmond is going to be hard but finding anyone better with my dog will be impossible!”
“Abby is absolutely wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and she made it so easy. We have two cats that needed oral medication twice a day for a week. We could rest easy knowing she had it covered. She kept us informed with daily updates and photos. Highly recommended!”
“Thank you so much, Maria! Maria was a fantastic sitter for my two cats. She did drop in visits while we were away for a day, and she followed instructions perfectly, and came at the times we agreed. She played with my cats, and sent me lots of pictures, where my cats looked happy. We came home to two perfectly normal cats and house. Having her made my day better, because I could relax knowing that my boys were taken care of. I will definitely contact her again, next time we are out. Thank you so much again, Maria!”
“Claire was FANTASTIC! She stopped over for a meet and greet prior to coming for the visit to meet them! Played and gave them a snack! Much appreciated! Loved getting the cute pics during the visit!”
“Anna was absolutely fantastic ? even though Taz was only seen once, Anna cared for him & my feral cat Puff? she was wonderful emptying the litter box & getting rid of all trash. She is Great!”
“These folks are incredible!! So kind, great with my dog, and very flexible. I’ll be booking again!”
“Hannah is great! My dogs took immediately to her. I highly recommend her!”
