House Sitting In Colonial Heights

“Katie is the best! My pups are my life and she was so wonderful with them. I haven’t left them with anyone else besides family since of one of them became blind. She was phenomenal with sending me pics and keeping me updated. I will be using her from now on.”

Dawn D.

“She is a very nice person she looks wonderful care of my kids and left the house the way we left it. I will book her again if ever I need a sitter”

Tiphaney M.

“Excellent dog person. Took amazing care of our pupsx super communicative. So happy we have found a person that cares for our dogs as we would”

Jenny W.

“Right off the batt, two words: HIRE DALTON! This young man exceeded every expectation of a pet/house sitter! We have a rescue pointer who can be pretty insecure. Dalton was so sweet, knowledgeable and patient that by day 2 of a week long pet sit, Buddy was completely at ease and happy. Dalton sent us updates every day with photos and details of their day. When we got home, the house was as if we never left, and he actually washed his bedding. Your pets will be in the best of hands and we simply cannot recommend him enough. We will be repeats for sure.”

Helen H.

“Darla took amazing care of my 2 dogs while I was out of town, including my senior dog that recently started having some health issues & needed daily medication given. I felt no stress being gone & she had great communication with me & left my house spotless. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”

Brooke S.

“Amanda was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! I will forever use her to watch my babies! She was wonderful and my puppies absolutely adored her! She sent me so many wonderful pictures and took such great care of them and not once did I have to worry about their well being! Thank you so so much and I can’t wait to praise your sitting to other families who are in need of someone caring to watch their babies!”

Ashley S.

“Michael did an awesome job taking care of our fur babies! The pups were completely at ease around him and he did everything to make sure they were as happy and comfortable as possible. You can tell he really enjoys being around and caring for animals. He was also very conscientious of our home and kept up with our routines and instructions perfectly.”

Olivia H.

“Maegan took such good care of my babies. I was nervous to leave them with sitter for the first time but they loved her (even the cat that loves no one). I loved getting the updates while I was gone.”

Siera Jordan C.

“Everything was fine. I was very pleased to get the daily photos. My dog and cat were happy to see me home but not stressed. Over all a good experience. I definitely recommend Lauri and Rover.Com.”

About: I bring hands-on experience from working in both kennels and animal shelters, where I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all breeds and temperaments. My time in these settings has taught me the importance of routine, trust, and compassion. I also have a unique skill set in caring for exotic animals, making me versatile and prepared for any type of pet. Whether it's a playful puppy, a senior dog needing extra attention, or any other kind of pet that requires specialized care, I’m ready to provide the best care for your furry (or scaly) friend! As a college student on a pre-vet track, I’m used to balancing a busy schedule while still making time for animals. I have multiple availability blocks throughout the week, which makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my routine. I’m organized and plan ahead, so I can make sure pets get consistent care whether that’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or check-ins. Caring for animals is already a big part of my life and future career goals, so I naturally prioritize it in my day-to-day routine. I care for pets by treating them like family and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual routine for meals, walks, and playtime so they stay comfortable in their own environment. I’ve had many pets of my own over the years, so I understand how important it is to give them not just the basics like food and water, but also attention, patience, and affection. Every pet has their own personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes them feel most at ease.

“Deanna came to our rescue after our other sitter had a death in the family and could not watch our dogs. She is awesome she did great watching our dogs. She took them out and spent several hours with them a day. We originally booked for overnight but because she lives so close we let her do drop in visits and it worked out just as well. I highly recommend Deanna to watch your pets because she'll treat them like family and did an amazing job! We will be using her again!”

Heidi P.

“William was great with my cat! Super communicative and understanding when my plans changed. My pet just loved him. Would recommend to anyone.”

Grace F.

“Laura stayed in house for two weeks pet sitting for us. She took our dogs out for walks, ran errands with them and was in tune to each pet’s quirks. She even watered my plants, check mail, and brought in packages! Our home was turned back over in the same condition as we left it - I highly recommend trusting your babies with her!”

Cynthia A.

“Anna really helped us out this past weekend keeping our puppy for us in a hotel room while we had a few social events. We really appreciated her being so responsible and keeping our pup entertained. I would use her again. She was on time, friendly and very helpful. I didn’t have to worry at all while we were away!”

Harriet P.

“Vivian was amazing with our two doggos. She even sent us a pic mid week to let us know how they were doing. Would highly recommend and we will book her the next time we have an extended trip planned.”

About: I’ve been a vet tech, a zookeeper, and have been caring for animals almost all my life. I went to school for wildlife ecology, and I am trained in home introduction techniques. I’m happy to care for any special needs or particular requests you have to make your pet’s as comfortable as possible during their stay! Looking forward to caring for your furry family members soon. I work full-time, but when I am home I make sure to give your fur babies my undivided attention. My wife is home all day, so she can definitely help out with your fur babies! I make sure every dog is comfortable with me, and I let them walk around my home to get a sense of the area. If the clients home I make sure the dog/dogs are comfortable with me as well, and once they are I proceed with taking care of them.

“Deborah is the best. My pups lover her and she did and awesome job taking care of my fur babies.”

Mark P.

“Abigail did an excellent job staying at my house and taking care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats while we went out of town. She is very trustworthy and I really appreciated the daily photos!! I will call Abby next time for sure. Thanks Abby!!”

About: Always grew up with them and care for them the best I can for your pet. I'll make sure all instructions are met to your standards I live at home and am free everyday in the week until school let's out. Then ill do my best but can't promise anything at that point. I'll always be gentle and kind and follow any instructions to care for your pet as if it was mine. Anything they need ill do my best to give

About: I grew up with cats, dogs, turtles, lizards… basically anything I could get away with bringing home. I have been a pet parent to my cats, Maybell for the last 10 years, and Gia for the last 6. They are precious girls that I love dearly, and I have extensive experience with varieties of dog breeds from working at a boarding and grooming facility! I work full time as a physical therapist during the week days and miss getting to have dogs around to love on! As an outdoors fanatic and someone who seeks movement throughout my days, being an add on walker/per sitter in my free time is a dream job of a way to get to be around the pets I love (but can’t currently have due to a skiddish older cat!) and my passion for taking care of others! I am comfortable with medication dispensing due to previously caring for highly medically complex family pets, as well as extensive time working at a boarding and grooming facility which taught me a myriad of tips for caring for easy and more finicky pets all alike!! I can provide and manage crate care, walking, running, and hiking experiences for your pet during a stay but also as happy to couch potato with your pup!
