“Mallory was beyond amazing, both for my pets as well as my house, going above and beyond for us, particularly in a tricky time. I would certainly book with Mallory again in a heartbeat.”

About: My name is Nick and I am a teacher in Chesterfield county looking to use my love for animals as a way to make some extra money over the summer. I have had dogs and cats growing up my whole life and currently have a dog named Bagel and a cat named Friday. I also have lots of experience dog/cat sitting for friends and family over the years ever since I was in high-school. I am a teacher so I won’t be working during the summers so I will have unlimited time during the day/night to take care of your pets and their needs! Once the school year starts I can do weekends and afternoon/nights! I have a lot of energy myself so if your pets love to get exercise/play around I am very up for that. I also try to be very thorough with the pet care instructions and will ask questions/for clarification to ensure I am giving your pet the best care as possible.

“Daniel is great, very communicative, responsive & willing to handle circumstances that pop up with our high-maintenance hounds. He has dog/cat/house set for us several times now & I would highly recommend!”

About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life and have been a cat dad for six years now so I have a vast amount of experience with both animals and love both equally. Family friends have relied on me to take care of their dogs, including overnight stays for weeks at a time, when they go on vacation. I have also taken care of my friends' cats on multiple occasions and love the opportunity to do so. With pets I have administered medication, changed and cleaned litter boxes, and fed at appropriate times. I'm currently working part-time so will have plenty of time for visits with bog dogs and cats! I am also outdoorsy and athletic so would love to play outside with pets whenever I get the chance. Part-time shifts would be no earlier than 9:30 in the morning and no later than 9:30 in the evening, so I would always be free for early morning or evening visits. I have plenty of experience with dog sitting for family friends while staying in their house, so would be very comfortable with home visits or walking around the neighborhood.

“Amber has been our number one go to pet sitting whenever we have to go out of town. She is amazing with our stubborn Bulldog, Freya and always makes sure to send us pictures and keep us in the loop. 10/10 would recommend Amber!!!”

Matthew G.

“Celeste was great! They house sat for me and took care for my cats, sent me pictures and made sure they got attention, fed, and cleaned the litter box. Would definitely recommend them!”

Samantha S.

“Marissa did an absolutely fabulous job of taking care of our two "elderly" greyhounds for a week. She made them comfortable and secure by sticking to their routine and gave them lots of love. She sent pictures and gave us regular updates and was very responsive to any questions that we had so we never had to wonder what was going on. I would highly recommend Marissa!!”

About: I was raised in a family of animal lovers and helped to care for at least one family pup at all times. From my grandma's cat filled house to my own dogs, I have always been surrounded by a variety of furry friends so I'm very comfortable and experienced with caring for them. I began pet-sitting for neighbors as soon as I got into high school, and I'm very excited to meet some new furry friends! As a second year student at the University of Virginia home on winter break from classes, I've got a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care! I have a completely free schedule, which means I can provide consistent and attentive care for your furry friends, ensuring they get plenty of playtime, walks, and attention while you're away! Since I live in an apartment that doesn't allow animals, I don't offer in-home pet care services. Instead, I provide dedicated pet care at your convenience! I will make sure your pet feels comfortable and happy during our time together. I also maintain a flexible schedule to accommodate your needs, ensuring your furry friend receives the best care possible in a familiar environment. Your pet's well-being is my top priority!

“Miles was so great with Kip. He walked him, went lots of pics and took absolutely fantastic care of our house too. Will absolutely book him again.”

Jake L.

“She is amazing! Our dog was obviously pampered and much more relaxed than usual when we get back. I’ve never been so confident that she was treated well and our house was exceptionally well cared for as well. She even taught our old dog a new game. 100% recommended.”

Marie H.

“Rose is the best housesitter we've ever used from Rover! Responsible and great with communication! We had a small house/car emergency while she was housesitting, and she handled it perfectly. We will definitely be using her again.”

Liz M.

“Alex took great care of our two dogs! He sent daily updates and photos. Our dogs really enjoyed their time with him. He left the house clean and tidied up. Very happy with the care our dogs got while we were gone, especially our senior!”

Amira A.

“We were so happy to find [Sitter’s Name]! She followed all instructions carefully and asked thoughtful questions when needed, which gave us peace of mind right away. After the first night, we knew our dogs were in great hands and we didn’t have to worry. She was reliable, attentive, and everything we hoped for in a sitter. We were impressed and would absolutely use her again and recommend her to others!”

Veronica E.

“We felt at ease when Emily stayed with our 10 month old great dane pup and 7 year old Border Aussie. I got pictures everyday we were gone and the dogs were happy and relaxed when we got home. Bonus points for the house being clean when we got home! We are hopeful to have Emily care for our pets and home again!”

Cat H.

“Victor was an exceptional guest and a wonderful caretaker for my two dogs. He followed all instructions carefully, maintained great communication while I was away, and most importantly, my dogs absolutely adored him. The house was spotless when I returned! Victor went above and beyond to ensure everything was in order, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets and home were in such capable hands. I would not hesitate to welcome him back again. Highly recommended!”

Cole M.

“Zander was a great sitter for our pup and home! Lots of photo updates, respectful of the house, and our dog loved him. Will definitely be booking with Zander again!”

Olivia F.

“Sarah was amazing. She came and met our pup beforehand and our dog loved her instantly. She asked questions which made me feel more comfortable that she would be prepared. She sent me lots of pics and videos of our dog while we were away. Will definitely book her for future trips.”

Richelle L.

“Lindy was amazing! They gave us great updates every day on how Laika was doing, and what they were up to everyday. And lots of adorable pictures in which it was clear Laika was having a great time with them. Highly recommend!”
