“Matt is amazing !! I moved to Richmond for work for 13 weeks and he has made my life easier taking care of my 1 year old puppy, Paige. His dog, Cooper is super super sweet. And Paige comes home exhausted from all the fun she has had ! Very grateful for Matt’s help”


“Cindy is a wonder! My scaredy-dog loves her, and went to her willingly even though it had been a long time since his last visit. She asked if I’d like her to give him a bath, and that was a very welcome addition. Thank you Cindy!”


“This was Luna’s first day with Julie. She was happy when I picked her up and seemed to enjoy herself. We have another day scheduled in a week.”



“Very accommodating and good communication!”


“This was our first time leaving our 1-year-old dog with someone outside of the family since we got him. Katelynn was awesome with Zeus and was great with him from the very start! He typically is very scared of new people and refuses to leave our side but she made him feel comfortable and safe from the start! She kept us up to date throughout the day which made us feel safe. We will definitely have Zeus stay with her next time, she was wonderful and I would highly recommend her!”


“My Winston is worn out! He’s so happy!”


“Despite the late request, Ross answered very quickly and was able to arrange a brief meeting the same night for Murdoch and his dog to meet. The day after, we left Murdoch with Ross and Ava and everything went monthly with a few pictures of Murdoch's day. I recommend Ross and Ava !”


“Myrna is a great sitter. She has taken excellent care of Starbuck. We have scheduled doggie day care and boarding. Myrna's schedule is flexible and she works with us on drop off and pickup times. We will continue to use Myrna's services.”


About: I've always had dogs and cats, and for a short time, pet rats (they're actually really lovely!) I come from a long line of animal lovers and continue that legacy. When in my care, pets are enriched and have plenty of opportunity for activity. If your dog enjoys swimming, I can take them to a nearby creek to play. I have a large yard for playing fetch, and a spunky lab mix that is happy to play tug-o-war. I am very attentive to animals and put them at ease so they settle into their home away from home. I have a flexible job that allows me to work from home, so I am flexible with pick-up and drop-off times unless otherwise communicated. I am in RVA most weekends as well. I have a fenced backyard and a dog and 2 cats. The cats have been around other dogs, and Eddy the dog loves other dogs- he has lots of energy to share!

“I can’t possibly say enough good things about Tyler and the amazing care she took of our pupper. She’s the best.”


“Reese's stay was amazing with Nicholas and his pup! Our girl is high energy and came home tired and happy. We got pictures of her having her best day both outside playing and inside napping, which we appreciated on this hot summer day. We will definitely be repeat customers. Thank you!”


“Victoria is extremely sweet, professional, and patient. 10/10 would recommend to a friend!!”


About: I have had dogs, cats and birds my entire life. I will treat your fur babies as I would treat my own. Nothing but love I am at home all day as I am an artist. And work from home. I work out of the home 3 evenings a week. I have a large back yard. It is not fenced in but I do have a 25ft lead or I can simply walk them. I have 2 pet parakeets and a Great Dane that recently went to heaven at almost 12. Pets are always allowed on my couches and beds and I miss the snuggles.

“Kat was great! She responded to my last minute request quickly and was in constant communication with me throughout the day. Kat also was very flexible and understanding when I had to go past my original pickup time. I also was returned a very happy and tired puppy! I would absolutely use Kat again.”


“Thanks for taking great care of Suki!”


“Julia was very great and helpful especially since I had to find boarding last minute. She worked with my schedule which I greatly appreciate and was responsive. Highly recommend!”


About: Hello! My name is Kyla and since I was 5 years old my family and I have always welcomed needing pets to our home and family. I’ve also been frequently trusted with caring for neighbors’ and family pets during their times away. With this background I’ve been given the hands on experiences to understand and provide the needs of pets who are away from their home environment and would ensure that my home and care is a welcoming and comforting temporary replacement to what you provide to them. Looking forward to being your trusted sitter! I currently work from home full-time and am much of a homebody outside of that, giving me plenty of time to care for and play with your furry friends and provide frequent updates on their stays away from you. I live in an apartment but am very close to nearby parks and walking areas and would be sure to frequently give your pets their much needed doses of fresh-air and outdoor playtime. When in a client’s home, I am sure to treat it as my own and maintain the routine that they’re accustomed to.

“Tim and his wife are very pleasant and I was even invited inside their cozy living room. Nice neighborhood and they have a nice yard in the back. Also, our communication before and during Anis stay was very easy. I’d definitely book again.”

“Chris met us on time at the park and watched Ladybug while I went rock climbing at the RVA Man Wall. He was great with Ladybug and let her go wherever she wanted and snuggled her while we climbed. Great Rover experience with Chris, highly recommend!”


About: Hi!! My name is Emily and I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I grew up surrounded by so many pets and have a few of my own now which I love with my whole heart! Would do anything for them, as I know you would for your fur babies too!! Trusting someone with your pet(s) is a big deal, especially if it’s your first time being apart - I get it! I’d love to be able to help ease any worries or concerns by making sure they have the best time and get all the love they need while you’re away. I love sharing as many updates / photos during my stays/visits, as I would hope a sitter would do for me, too. 🥰 I have been pet sitting as well as house sitting / babysitting & professional nannying for years! I figured it would be so great to broaden my portfolio and create a rover profile to connect with more families and pets in the area. 😊 I do work full time, but work remotely with a very flexible schedule! I am currently wanting to add side gigs to help pay for my upcoming wedding in 2026. 🥰 I try and keep my availability updated daily! Please send me a message with any questions. A teeny bit make about my background with pets - I can administer medications, am great with senior dogs, high energy pups, special needs assistance and puppy training. Great with walks and play time as well! Absolutely love all the snuggles too. A bit about rover - Rover will collect about 20% of my listed rate per each booking, as well as the 8% service charge you are charged through the platform. Ask me about my rover discount, and about returning customer rates too! ❤️ I work from home so am very flexible with my schedule. I can overnight sit as well as house dogs in my home without needing to leave them unattended! They’ll always have someone to snuggle. I’m flexible with daytime / evening drop ins as well. I can care both in and out of my home. Whichever you prefer. We have a large fenced in yard and a lovely screened porch too!
