“Abby did drop-in visits for our cat while we were away for a week and she was wonderful! She was so friendly from when we first met her, kept us updated, and took great care of our cat. Thank you Abby!!”
“Phyllis was a wonderful and attentive pet sitter for my cat during a recent trip. She is easy to work with, provided lots of updates and photos, and my cat loved her. I would hire or recommend Phyllis to others in a heart beat. Knowing that she was watching my cat made enjoying my vacation much easier. Thank you again Phyllis!”
“Jynette helped us out last minute this week by walking our dog, Kirby. It didn’t take long for him to warm up to her! She was timely and so friendly during our meet and great. Highly recommend.”
About: Though I have experience caring for dogs, my real passion is with cats. I've been volunteering with cats for over 4 years now and adore each cat that I come across. Litterboxes don't scare me and I understand that some cats need a while to warm up to a new face. I'd love to care for your kitties. I currently work from home, so after hours I love to get out of the house. It's the perfect time to come see your furbabies! I can spend evenings and weekends with your furbabies! Or for extended periods of housesitting, if there is adequate wifi and space, I can work from your place if you prefer someone be there around the clock. I don't mind doing other small tasks around the house while I'm there.
“Hana is amazing! She’s so flexible and understanding when it comes to schedules and demands of each animal in the home. She truly cares about our animals (she will leave our tv on for our dog so she isn’t lonely) and does enrichment treats without us even asking her to. I trust her with our babies 100%”
About: I've been dog sitting since covid; things have changed but not the love for animals. Since my start I've dog sat for a wide varity of dogs. Puppies, oldies, big, small. Some requiring a lot of attention to help distract them, some that just sit by the door waiting for their pawrents to come home. From medications to special diets, specific schedules and give attention if you have the extra time. I will treat your dog as my own! Something you can count on is they will be loved and well taken care of. Pet care is my top priority. Making sure they are fed on time and they get plenty of play time and walks while you are gone. I unfortunately can't accept pets into my home as I don't currently live alone. But I'm more than willing to stay over whenever you need me to.
“This was our first time working with Taylor and we’ll definitely be working with her again in the future! She was respectful of our cats (who aren’t friendly), communicative, and timely. We were very pleased with our experience!!!”
About: My boy kitty passed away last year at 14 years old. He became very sick in his last 2 years so his care required daily shots, weekly vet visits. I became very proficient in giving pills by mouth as well. He was big and strong and didn’t like the vet or car rides so i learned how to best manage a very scared kitty. My mom had a senior dog who developed diabetes so I cared for him in my home for the last few years of his life. I gave him insulin shots twice a day and performed his medical care. I gave him meds by mouth and performed other care duties. I work part-time and am in school at ODU online so my hours are flexible. I live in the Richmond area and service a fairly wide range as I have my own reliable transportation. I prefer to pet-sit in the clients home as I have a cat myself. My grandma rescued hunting dogs, particularly hounds and beagles, when I was growing up, so I am safety minded when it comes to pets, especially ones who get scared easily.
About: I would love to come take care of your pet. I have always loved animals and training them has always been second nature to me. All my life I have been raising puppies along with all types of other creatures. I value their life as you would your own and I treat all owners and their belongings including furry children with utmost respect. I have fostered puppies from SFC(Spotsylvania) and BRAG here in Richmond. I am an army veteran who's current pet is a pitsky. She knows commands I have taught her myself. Sit, stay, down, drop, speak, handshake, ect. :-) I also know how to do dog CPR even though I am not certified I had a lab/mastiff mix who had a heart condition. I hope to work with you in the future. I currently am not working so I am flexible atm. However that may change by then end of June. I am always open to discussing plans with you.. I have a fenced in yard and at my clients home, if they do not have a fenced in yard, I make sure to never allow a pet to escape. I couldn't imagine the terror if it happened to mine so I will never let that happen to yours.
“Our two cats adore Danielle! She obviously cares about them and takes time to play with them, their favorite pastime. She is incredibly responsible, dependable and communicates well. We can leave home without worrying about a thing!”
About: I love all animals! I believe animals can sense energy, and animals always respond well to my presence because I am patient. I grew up on a farm so horses, dogs, cats, birds. My pets live like kings 😂 I work remotely so my schedule is flexible. Over night stays are fine. I work remotely and have hot spot so my schedule is flexible. I am available 7AM-3PM (depending on area). Fridays/Saturdays available all day. I would prefer pet sitting at the pet’s home to ensure they feel comfortable, low stress. Evenings I can stay extended amounts of times as long as y’all don’t mind me working remotely on my hot spot at the home. Outside/feeding schedules will be no problem because my work is flexible.

“Tanti gave my kitties all the love and attention they deserve while we went out of town. She did a fabulous job! Highly recommend Tanti and will certainly have her watch our kitties again the future”
About: I have taken care of my own dog since he was 8 weeks old. He loves to go outside and sun bathe. No matter the age of the pet, they deserve all the loving. I am doing an internship and work from 10am to 3pm most days from Monday-Thursday. I am still around on the weekends. Friday-Sunday I am most likely free. My dog has an outdoor tether so he can roam freely without having to be watched, but also has a shock collar when someone is outside with him.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Chester
Sabrina took great care of our 3 boys. I'm glad my boys got to stay cozy in our home while we were on vacation. Sabrina sent us pictures of each and they warmed up and were playful even excited Sabrina was there. I highly recommend Sabrina she took great care of our fur babies and will book in the future!
We had a great experience with Jessica and will definitely use her anytime we need a cat sitter. We were away for 5 days and she took excellent care of our 8 cats (including two 4 month old kittens). Jessica was very communicative and kept us informed if anything happened. After every visit, she sent photos of each cat and gave a summary of how the visit went. It was obvious that she genuinely cared about our babies and was attentive to their individual needs.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
