“I would without a doubt reach out to Randi in hopes of her being available to dog sit Ruby again and highly recommend her services!! The house was super clean and loved getting pictures while we were gone. Thank you so much!!”

“This was the first time leaving Gracie for several days. Mel did such a great job keeping her anxiety level low. We felt keeping Gracie in her own home environment would be the best. Mel did such a wonderful job taking care of Gracie. We will definitely use Mel the next time! I would highly recommend her!”

“Fran was awesome! My dog Betty immediately gravitated towards her and I felt very comfortable with her staying with Betty in my home. She was very communicative, respectful, and engaging. She updated me when she took Betty on walks and provided photos. She left the house very clean.”

“Emily was AMAZING as a house sitter! She was so great with our kitty Saber, even when he had some accidents. She honestly went above and beyond to keep the rest of the house clean. She was very responsive and detail-oriented. Cannot recommend more!!!”

“Thank you Marissa! Figgy was well cared for and were so thankful to be able to leave her at home instead of at a kennel. Marissa left the house spotless and was extremely flexible when our plans changed.”


“Noel is amazing. She’s kind, attentive and connected easily with my dogs. She sent pictures and texts during the weekend and addressed their needs exceptionally well. Teddy & Pip were happy and relaxed when we got home.”

About: Hello! I’ve been gone for sitting for too long after moving from Idaho. I am a licensed EMT in Virginia and operations supervisor during the day. My fiancé is a scientist with europhins and have been in Richmond for a year now and am ready to hang out with some new pups! Because I am in an apartment setting it would be best to go do drop ins or walks. I’m in the shockoe city view lofts so pups around this area are very easy for me to come check on or take on walks of you don’t feel like walking him/her some days. I have done this for years prior to moving and just miss having dogs. So I am looking forward to meeting yours! Thanks for reading and feel free to message me. We do not have any dogs in the house just one lazy cat who was raised around dogs so she enjoys having them around. I do work full time and only one working one weekend a month. So if it lands on those weekends I’m totally free. During the week Im off at 2:30 most of the time but will occasionally close one night a week getting home at 8. This all 100% depends on the instructions you provide😊 I like the dog to be as free roaming and have adequate exercise and attention while I’m with them and prefer they aren’t crated unless requested.
“Jenna is amazing! She took such great care of our 3 dogs and even taught them new tricks! She is extremely communicative and sent us photos and videos often. She left our house spotless and even watered my plants for me. She is now our go to person!”

“Cat was and is WONDERFUL. She stayed with our dog for 12 days, the longest vacation we have ever taken, and we were admittedly nervous about leaving him for that long. She was thoughtful and communicative leading up to and during her stay, left the house very neat and clean and put us totally at ease. I cannot possibly put into this little box how much we appreciate Cat—other than to say I cannot imagine engaging anyone else in care of my beloved pet. I will miss our text message check-ins and recommend her entirely.”

“Catherine was fantastic. From the day I left, I had zero worries, she sent updates and photos on her own, I never had to ask what was going on. Followed every instruction exactly: medications, supplements, kept his water topped off, walked him the full distance I asked for and then some. You could tell she wasn’t just checking boxes. She noticed the small stuff, kept his routine consistent, and it showed. I came home to a calm, happy dog, which honestly says more than any review can. If you need someone who’s reliable, communicates well, and actually treats your dog like their own, book Catherine. I already know I’m using her again.”

“Eddie S. Watched our house and two high spirited large dogs. They loved him and did very well with him. He was very conscientious and communicated well. Sent great photos and put us at ease. Definitely plan to have him care for our dogs again!”

“Kaleigh helped me out with dog walks when I had to cancel my booked housesitting trip last minute due to injury! My dog loves her. Great communication. Will book again.”

“Jennifer was awesome! She took excellent care of our two dogs, Kona and Milo, while we were out of town. She was very friendly and sent frequent updates letting us know how the dogs were doing. We highly recommend her!”

About: A self-proclaimed "cat lady" and lover of animals who's spent years caring for furry family members as well as the lovely homes of their people. (I take great pet pics, too!) It began in the 2000's aughts when I lived at my aunt and uncles home in Maryland, when I took care of their Golden, three cats, and home while they were (often) away. I extended my support to other family/friends. I've also administered meds for pets, including senior pets, and helped pets with bad backs ensure they stay healthy by not jumping, etc. In the real world, I am a communications pro and vocalist who appreciates cool people and cool art. Pets are a gift in life! I am super flexible to adapt to anyone's schedules and routines, seven days per week, morning, afternoon, or evening. My own pet is cared for throughout the day, every day. With my own cat, she eats five times per day (small portions of wet and dry), I play with her, clean her litter box, and attempt to snuggle with her every day. For those with dogs, I basically adhere to their routine. If they can/want to go for longer or more walks, I can support that!

“The other reviews are correct Andrew is amazing! He took care of my pup while I was away but also took care of my home like it was his own. He sent updates with pictures and his communication was simply great. I'm so happy I found someone who I can trust to look after my dog and home while I'm away. I cannot say enough good things about Andrew and I will be booking him a few more times this year. Thank you Andrew!”

About: I just love critters! I love hanging out with your furry legged friends and would love to take care of yours if at all possible. I do work full time: however, I have my own transportation and can be somewhat flexible on my office hours. I’m used to working crazy hours all day! Can do drop ins as well as overnights, but will need to go into the office during the day. I make sure they’re happy and comfortable, following instructions to a T and spending as much time as possible with them to ensure they’re happy and healthy!

About: I’ve had dogs since I was eight years old. Including puppies and rescuing senior dogs. Some of the senior dogs were at the end of their life so I understand the need for compassion and care. I currently have a two year old puppy which I have trained since she was five months old. So I am very versed in the need for daily exercise, consistent training, and daily enrichment. I’ve been dog sitting for at least ten years. Including extended stays at my residence. I’m currently a part time worker, looking for something to fill my extra time. So I have a very flexible schedule and I’m always ready for some extra dog time. My goal is to always put your pets need first. Including any care they need. Including cleaning up after them and any extra medications they may need. Also adding comfort and safety in stressful situations.
The median cost per night for house sitting in City Center is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - City Center
One of a kind! Kendall is incredibly reliable and a wonderful communicator. We felt our animals were in good hands the entire week. Last minute our cat got an infection and she didn’t bat an eye to administering his medication daily. Our cats were both relaxed and happy when we got home, plus the dishes were done and the house was tidy!

Christine was so patient and kind with our dog. She would not come out of the crate and Christine patiently waited until she was ready. Christine provided us with updates and photos every day. She spent the night at our place which gave us peace of mind knowing our anxious dog had someone with her. I would recommend Christine. She was responsible and caring.

This was my first time hiring a pet sitter and Kaylynn couldn’t have been more perfect. She kept me updated, consistently checked in regarding my travel plans to support with care, provided quality care and walks and snuggles to my furbabies. I am so grateful for Kaylynn and will definitely hire her again for future pet sitting needs.

Emily did such a wonderful job taking care of my girl. She sent regular, helpful updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was out of town. I came home to a very happy dog, and she was also incredibly respectful of my house. I would definitely have her back.

Kaity did a great job watching our dog, Kemba. She followed all of our instructions and consistently communicated with us each day - providing updates and pictures of Kemba. She left our house in great condition which was super helpful after a long trip. We’ll definitely rebook her again when the opportunity comes up!
