“My wife and I were very nervous about trying out Rover when our usual dog sitter wasn’t available. Lucky for us we found Morgan! She came over to meet our dogs a week before our vacation and we could tell our dogs would be in good hands. They connected with her quickly. She was great to work with and kept in constant communication. She called if she had questions and sent multiple pictures, videos, and text updates daily. We could tell our doggos were having a blast and being well taken care of while we were gone. Aside from the dog care, our house was exactly the way we had it when we left. I can’t recommend Morgan’s services enough. Thanks for your help and Maddie and Rose hope to see you again soon!”
“Erika was great with our dogs and our chickens. She sent updates daily and we knew the dogs were happy. She was responsive and a great communicator. She left our house spotless and even washed her own sheets and towels before leaving. She was flexible with our return time being 2 hours later than expected. We would definitely book her again!”
“Helena was everything we hoped for in a dog and house sitter. I appreciate so much all of the photos, the detailed updates on their time together, and how proactive Helena was with communicating. We cannot wait to be her repeat clients. If you want someone that you can trust that your dog will quickly be obsessed with, look no further. Seriously, thank you so much, Helena!”
About: I have five years of professional dog care in many different spheres. I have previously managed two different kennels, groomed many dogs around Richmond, and am K9-CPR certified. I have experience training puppies, adults, and seniors basic obedience, leash manners, and beginner agility. I am well versed in administering medications. Prior to working with dogs as a career, I have experience caring for many dogs over my life, from family pets to petsitting in the neighborhood. I am happy to provide enrichment activities for your animal as well, such as bubble play, doga (dog yoga), or drives to hiking locations. I am committed to being completely available for any of your pet needs! My main focus is comfortable care for your critter, no matter how early or late that may be. I feel that years of experience in caring for animals who are being boarded, hanging out at daycare, or getting a stylish spa day have taught me so much in how to interact and build trust with many animals no matter the situation. I believe a combination of patience, kindness, intuition, and some snackos can really foster a safe, positive environment for everybody.
“Wesley was amazing. Kept in contact with us. Took amazing care of our pups. Let us know if any issues. She even got my little old pup to cuddle and that is rare. He really doesn’t like many people! She was amazing and we plan to use her again and again!!”
“Shula and Samuel watched our two hooligans while we were out of town for a long weekend. They went above and beyond again! They took great care of the house and most importantly, we came home to two happy and healthy doggos. My family and I cannot say enough great things about them!”
“Kara was a great sitter for our cat Mateo. She took great care of him. Played with him and snuggled with him, sent us daily photo updates, and we came back to a nice clean house. Thank you Kara!”

Please don’t hesitate to reach out, i’d love to make friends with your pup! I work from home which allows me to have a flexible schedule, and can accommodate to your pets normal schedule.

“We are grateful for the amazing care Chelsea provided to our cat Mateo when we were away for 10 days. She took great care of him, but also kept our home clean and tidy. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was in good hands and we definitely recommend her to others that are looking for a professional and caring pet sitter.”
“Lucy adores Cailey and her husband and I know she’s being well-cared for when I leave her! I love the daily updates and pictures and will definitely use Cailey again (this was my second booking with her)!”
“We highly recommend Riley. Our little Calli Has some anxiety issues, but she seemed to relax and accept Riley easily. She was in excellent spirits when we returned home, and was well cared for. Riley’s knowledge of pets and her love of them is obvious.”
“Audrey was a fantastic sitter and spent time with our pup after he had surgery. She was on time, super friendly and took great care of our dog. Will definitely plan to have her come sit again!”
“Kim stayed several nights with our kitty and senior Greyhound and we (and they!) were very happy with her. Both our pets require medication, and have complicated feedings, and she handled it all just great! We greatly appreciate her concern and care for our pets and our home.”
About: I've taken care of dogs for years, and I'm absolutely ecstatic to meet you and your furry friend! I started out by accompanying my mom on her Rover assignments while in school. We also welcomed Trixie to the family, a 3-year-old mini petite Goldendoodle with a taste for blueberries. Now that I've moved cities, I'm interested in helping others with their furry loved ones. I'm a remote worker, so my flexibility is unmatched. I also enjoy outdoor and active activities, especially when the weather's nice. Thanks for your consideration! I'm a full-time employee for a remote-based, nonprofit news organization, and I'm based in Richmond, VA. I work an early shift (7am-3pm EST), but I have flexibility all day long. Pets under my care have access to a furry-tastic care kit, which includes a water bottle and bowl, snacks, toys, peanut butter and more. Please reach out with any other meeds - I'll be happy to grab them!
About: Hi! I’m Sue, and I’ve been caring for pets for over 6 years—starting with family, friends, and referrals, and now expanding to help more pet parents through Rover. I currently have a one year old sweet Labrador Retriever with a heart condition, so I’m very familiar with caring for dogs who need extra attention or medication. I’ve also raised puppies as young as 8 weeks and have experience with both dogs and cats of all kinds. Whether it’s playtime, walks, administering meds, or just relaxing and keeping your pet company, I’m happy to follow their routine and comfort level. I’m comfortable with all types of dogs—as long as they’re not aggressive and are okay with someone new in their space. If your pet needs medication (oral or topical), I can handle that with care and calm. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust, and I’ll always treat them like my own. I have plenty of availability during the week and some on weekends. Just let me know in advance so I can plan accordingly and make sure I’m available to meet your pet’s needs! When I’m caring for pets in your home, I treat it with the same respect and care as I do my own. I follow your routines closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medications, or just making sure your pet has company and comfort while you’re away. I always prioritize safety, whether it’s making sure doors are secure, checking that your pet’s collar/harness fits properly for walks, or being mindful of any specific needs or sensitivities your pet may have. During dog walks, I avoid busy or unsafe areas and pay close attention to your dog’s body language and comfort level. I’m also happy to give updates and photos so you can feel connected and confident while your pet is in my care. Clear communication and respect—for both your pets and your home—are very important to me.
“Heidi was absolutely fantastic! Our two pups loved her. Our older dog usually struggles when we’re out of town but with Heidi, our dog did so well! We’ll definitely try to book with Heidi again in the future.”
About: I treat every pet like my own with love, patience, and attention to their unique needs. I’m comfortable with sticking to specific routines, and providing calming companionship for anxious pets. Whether it’s a playful walk or a quiet cuddle session, I tailor my care to each animal’s personality and needs. Your pet’s happiness and safety are always my top priorities! Pet care is a natural and joyful part of my daily life. I build my schedule around giving pets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday playtime, or evening check-ins, I make sure each pet’s routine stays consistent. I’m flexible and reliable, which means I’m able to accommodate a variety of needs like last minute bookings, regular visits, or overnight stays. I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether they’re in my home or theirs. In a client’s home, I follow all provided routines closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and play preferences. I keep the space clean, secure, and calm so your pet can relax in their familiar environment.
“Zach and Logan did a great job with the pups over the wkend. They were helpful not only with them, but caring for my chickens and hanging baskets while we were gone. I was a bit apprehensive about having someone I didn't know stay in my home but they made it easy and are very trustworthy. They are good communicators and kept me informed throughout their stay on how the pups were doing. Highly recommend them. Definitely will call upon them in the future.”
