House Sitting Belmont

“Christian is the BEST dog caretaker we’ve ever had! She also stayed at our house and took great care of the house as well. She took our dog for a walk 3 x a day, gave her lots of love & cuddles & kept the house clean and did all the trash & washed our dogs bowls, vacuumed & stripped the bed. She is so communicative, professional, responsible and kind! We highly recommend her.”

Naomi S.

“Bertie and Lissette's family were amazing! They took great care of my puppy and were very responsive and easy to communicate with. I will definitely contact them again the next time I am in Charlottesville.”

Onyx M.

“Kristen is the sweetest! Our pups had a lovely time with her, and we're so thankful for her help! Cannot recommend her services more. We have 2 dogs who are relatively high-energy, and she cared for them very well.”

Meghan B.

“Nathan is great. He stayed with our dog during the big snow/ice storm. He was easy to work with and super flexible when the storm threatened our travel plans. We would definitely book with him again.”

Paige E.

“Kailyn was so professional and communicative. She takes her job seriously and it shows. My babies were healthy and happy when I returned from my trip, and that’s everything! I came home to my house in order, and a darling personal note from her with little photos of my dogs attached. Best experience I’ve had with a Rover sitter. Peace of mind is something you can’t put a price on!”

Dana K.

“Anna was great! She took great care of my dog and my place while I was gone! She communicates well, sends frequent updates. Will rebook with her in the future!”

Jaelyn C.

“When we read Danielle's profile we knew she was the perfect match for our older dog. Danielle was always quick to reply, great with our dog, sent lots of pictures throughout, and kept us informed about how our dog was doing. We also appreciated that Danielle was willing to schedule some meet ups before our booking to get to know our dog, and let our dog get to know her. We booked Danielle to stay overnight, and our house was exactly as we left it. We cannot say enough good things about Danielle, except that we will definitely book her again in the future”

“Anne took great care of our two dogs and two guinea pigs during our two-week trip. We felt very comfortable having her house-sitting and she was great about keeping the dogs' routines going on as normal. She was very responsible and was friendly and engaging with our pets. We were very happy to have her here at our house for our pets.”

Robin C.

“Bryn was great! My pets can both be shy and slow to warm up to people, and they loved her! Both Piper and Beckett ended up snuggling with her while she stayed with them. I appreciated that she stayed overnight with them, left my apartment as clean as it was when she arrived, and even took my trash out for me. Thanks, Bryn!”

Madison S.

“Tracy was an incredible house sitter! She took great care of our pup, left our home excellent condition, and was regularly in contact with us throughout our time away. I can't recommend her enough and we are certain to contact her again when we need someone to look after our dog.”

Jamelle B.

“The doggies loved her! She did a great job.”

Sprightley R.

“Caring, thoughtful, dependable, and responsible. Charlotte did a wonderful job caring for Bessie and my home while I was away. Great daily communication. And she left the place nice and clean. I really appreciated her willingness to arrive very early in the morning and stay til late at night to accommodate my flight schedule. Definitely looking forward to having Charlotte take care of Bessie again soon, thank you!”

Michelle M.

“Dakota is our Housesitter of choice. He is very responsible and careful with our beloved dogs and our house. It makes our vacations much more peaceful, knowing everything is in Dakota‘s hands.”

About: I grew up with large dogs and cats and have a beloved rescue cat now. As a young person, I housesat, babysat, and took care of animals throughout my neighborhood and my parents’ friend group. I am used to taking care of my family’s dogs when they are out of town. All I need is an introduction and instructions. I am a kind, mature, and responsible person -- a homeowner myself -- and would be happy to take extra care with simple tasks (like collecting mail and watering plants) while I’m checking on your animals. Let me know how I can help and provide peace of mind while you are away! I am currently working part-time from home and finishing a graduate program at UVA so I have a flexible schedule. I prefer early morning and evening checkins/walks (in case I do need to go into work). I can be available to stay overnight if needed. In my client's home, I really want to provide as much continuity as possible. That means emotionally supporting and reassuring your animals and maintaining their schedules and habits with food and medication. It also means fun, a chance for your companions to experience a new friendly face in a safe environment. In my home: My cat is a rescue that came out of a very difficult situation. She is wonderful and we're so proud of how far she has come from the terrified animal we first adopted. I do not feel that she would welcome other animals into our home at this time, however.

“James did an awesome job with our Pisgah! James gave our pup so much exercise and attention that she was the happiest and most tranquil I’ve ever seen her after we’ve left her with a sitter. Highly recommend, will book again!”

Maryanne B.

“Ashley was great! She let me know when she arrived and how Buster greeted her. She kept Buster company for several hours during my longer than usual work day— preventing him from getting too anxious about being alone. You can tell Ashley is a true animal lover as well as being very conscientious and reliable. Will definitely reach out to her again for dog sitting!”

Tina F.

“Rachel was awesome, as usual! We enjoyed her pictures and updates while we were away, and intend to use her again when the time comes. Thank you, Rachel!”

Amy H.

“Kris was great! I felt very secure and comfortable knowing she was looking after my pups! Tulip is a very skittish/nervous dog and Kris sent me a picture of her cuddling, which is proof right there that she’s great with all types of dogs! Will definitely book again in the future!”

Erin M M.

“Rosey watched my 5 month old pup for a few days and she was a great sitter! She kept me updated throughout the stay and made sure my dog was well taken care of. In addition to the great care, she left the house in great condition! I would highly recommend her and she will be my first choice in the future. Thanks Rosey!”

Paul L.

“You want Mackenzie taking care of your fur babies. She's stayed with our pup before, and when our pup saw her again she was thrilled! This trip we even had a weird weather that closed schools and Mackenzie was great. She helped to calm our concerns when we were so far away. We will certainly use Mackenzie again.”
