8. Jonathan C.
“Jonathan was a *wonderful* sitter! We have an 8-month old kitten who needs lots of playtime, and Jonathan was reliable, confident, and reassuring. He hit it off with Bowie right away, and came up with lots of fun ways to keep him entertained. Jonathan sent us plenty of photos, and we came home to a happy and relaxed cat and a clean house. We'd certainly book with Jonathan again!”

“Lucas was great with Auggie! Was very communicative while we were away, kept our home nice and tidy and made sure to play with Auggie to keep her entertained.”
10. Jp B.
“JP was awesome! She was extremely communicative and laid back which was great for us. She came and met our dogs twice before staying with them which I so appreciated and was so patient with both of them. Both of our dogs have their own weird quirks and JP immediately made us feel at ease. We felt extremely comfortable while on our trip and she left the house spotless! Will definitely be rebooking her.”
11. Robin L.
“Robin is the best! She’s watched our pups several times, but this last time was a long 2 week stay & she went above and beyond! In addition to taking wonderful care of our needy dogs, she also made sure they were bathed before we got home, washed all their bedding and her own, got the mail, took care of the garbage, brought in our packages, watered plants, and picked up all of their poop outside. While we were away the upstairs AC stopped working & she was so gracious and flexible. She handled the situation perfectly and we are so grateful for her understanding. Robin is the real deal- she is so kind and has a great work ethic. We are so thankful for her & anyone would be lucky to have her watch their pets! Thanks again Robin :)”

13. Rebecca H.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, birds and other animals since I was a kid. My Great Grandmother had a farm, which sparked my love for animals at an early age. My children are comfortable with all animals as well. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I currently work for myself. I am available just about any time. When I am caring for a pet I will not have any other obligations regarding another job. My focus will be on your pet. I live in the Cold Harbor area of Mechanicsville. Our home sets on a private road with fenced yard. My priority is to make your pet feel at home while in my care. I only take pets from one family at a time to ensure that my focus, energy and attention is focused solely on your pets. Crates, toys, blankets, treats are all expected to be provided by pet owners unless there is a specified request.
14. Lindsay C.
“Lindsay was awesome! I had recently moved and had to leave the cats alone for the first time since the move. She went above and beyond taking care of them and keeping me updated. Thank you!”
15. Steffan S.
“There aren’t enough stars to give Steffan! Not only was it my first time using Rover. It was also my first time leaving my pup with anyone especially someone he has never met before. I was a nervous reck to say the least. I had a really special day/ night event to attend and assumed I would be texting about my pup nonstop just being nervous. I couldn’t be more wrong! My pup loved Steffan my stress and nervousness went away immediately. He provided me with a great stress-free day and night. He was very accommodating as I had to book last minute, he only had 1 days notice if even that and he made himself available! He kept me updated letting me know my pup was doing great and sent photos of him that made me feel so relieved. Suge now has a sitter he loves! We will always book Steffan when he’s available! AND when I got home there was nighttime dog lullaby sleep music on the tv with a little dog sleeping it was the most adorable thing to come home to. A+++++ Thank You🐶”

18. jordan g.
“Jordan was great! She communicated well. She was responsible and best of all my Bear loves her! He’s picky with people so the fact that he loves her speaks volumes! I would hire her again without hesitation.”
19. Chasidy K.
“Chasidy was great! She watched Winston as part of a house sitting on relatively short notice. Very quick to respond to messages, I would work with her if we were back in the area and needed a sitter.”
20. Averi Z.
“Averi was great! Dogs, house, and plants clearly cared for. She was very flexible when our schedule changed. I am certain that we will book her again!”
