“Natalie was very communicative, took good photos, and overall gave our cats excellent care for a couple check ins, which we booked on somewhat short notice. Definitely recommend!”

About: I have three of my own pups and 2 cats, and if my husband would let me have more I would! We don’t deserve animals! They are literally the best thing! I hope I can love your animals as much as I love mine while you are away! My boys love new friends and would be so excited to meet your fur babies. I work full time, but only work 8 hour shifts with some remote days. If your pets do well with other pets and hanging out for a few hours alone, I’ve got you covered! I have an elderly boy (14), so I know all about meds and providing comfort! Message me for more scheduling details, I can sometimes move my schedule around to accommodate. I have a fenced yard, my animals are indoor mostly because of this sac heat. I have the ac and fans on always to make sure they are the most comfortable they can be!
“We have a feisty old kitty who is very hard to medicate. Andee has been more successful with medicating her than any other pet sitter we have tried! We are very grateful for Andee’s excellent animal care skills.”

“Natalie is absolutely fantastic, flexible, and a dream. She's also quick to resound and very communicative with potential issues and loving to my shy and skittish (at first) dog. I couldn't recommend her high enough. 10/5 stars.”
“Debbie is amazing! She is reliable, organized, and trustworthy. She took amazing care of my cats and I looked forward to the daily updates. I definitely plan to re-book with Debbie in the future.”

About: Ever since I was a kid I have always loved and cared for animals, whether it was a bird, turtle, dog, cat you name it! I have cared for my own dog Pumpkin since she was a puppy and she is now 9 years old. I have gone through all the stages of with my little girl of life from puppy to now senior! My favorite thing is meeting new pets and being a barista I meet so many of them everyday and it’s the highlight of my day. So i’d love to meet and care for many more fur babies when needed! I am currently working mornings part time on weekdays and working morning to afternoons on weekends! So I definitely have a lot of time in the day to be able to spend with your fur babies!! For my little girl I have a fully fenced and spacious backyard for lots of playtime and to use the bathroom when needed! She is an inside dog so she has free roam in the house and she spends time outside as well!
About: As a dog mom to three (a husky, a shepherd mix, and a chihuahua), I understand that every dog has their own needs—whether they’re high-energy runners or slow-moving seniors. I’m active and love staying on the move, but I also know when to slow down. Reliable, flexible, and caring. My schedule is pretty flexible! I don’t have set work hours, so happy to fit in dog walks and visits throughout my day + weekend. I would be glad to follow whatever instructions/schedule your dog is on! You can count on me to treat your home—and your pet—with the same care I give my own.
“Thanks for caring for our fur babies! They had a great time and look forward to seeing you again! 🩷🐾”
“Great visit! Prompt communication, good pics with pets, and willing to trouble-shoot and think outside the box when my anxious pup was refusing to go outside to pee. Definitely would work with Aicha again!”
About: As a dog owner of 2, I value someone who will treat my dogs as their own. As a dog sitter, your dog would be in the best care and will receive all the love I give my own. I mostly work from home Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm so I am available anytime after 5pm during the weekday and anytime on the weekends. If needed, I can also be available for early morning during the weekday. I would like to sit only at clients homes so each pet will can feel the most comfortable. Also since I have 2 dogs at home, feel like it is the safest option to only be at clients home.
“Hans is an absolute hero yet again!! Looked after our two cats with love, care, and great communication! As always their vote counts the most, and they were in fine spirits when we got back. 10/10 would recommend Hans!!”
“Cory did an outstanding job with our senior pup Lulu. He is quick to respond and I felt totally comfortable trusting him with our old girl. I would recommend him to anyone!”

I wouldn’t trust anyone more than I do Nadine, to provide the upmost highest quality of care to an animal.”

Colonial Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Erin was great with our Senior pup, she gave her a quiet relaxing environment. We never worry when our pup is in Erin’s care!
Bari is an excellent sitter and always goes above and beyond taking care of my cat Vincent! He is always happy and content when I get home from trips.
I am always comforted when I know Shannon is free to care for my Leo. She is always on time and is very trustworthy. I am grateful to have her as my dog sitter when needed.
Natalie was amazing! My dogs loved her! She sent lots of photos and a video daily!! Highly recommend her!!
Libbey was super communicative took great care of my two cats with vision issues. She really went above and beyond to make sure my first Rover experience a delight. I would 10/10 book her again!
Even though my cat is a big cautious baby, Michelle always takes the time and effort to make sure he knows his family being away is only temporary! I always rebook!
We are so grateful for Jandy. We messaged her at 2:30AM looking for someone experienced to help us out with our sweet sick cat. He has chronic diseases and was pretty stable before we left for a short trip, but we noticed on our cameras he was having a flare up while we were gone. Our regular sitter wasn’t ready to manage it. Jandy answered us that morning and was at our place by 11:30 AM giving our cat SubQ fluids, meds, and sweet snuggles. He was doing much better after she took care of him. She is clearly very knowledgeable with cats with medical problems. She shared some of her experience in taking care of cats with similar issues, and what worked for them, obviously discuss all treatment with your vet, but we found it helpful! Because of Jandy we got to enjoy the rest of our trip knowing our cat was in good hands.
Debbie was fantastic! She’s the cat whisperer and is able to get our particular kitty playing and having fun while we’re gone.
Hans was amazing with my kitties. He went above and beyond in his level of care and it showed through in his thoughtful touches and true level of responsibility for my babies and my home. My cats can be messy critters sometimes but when I came home, it was like I’d never left because of Hans. I’m so glad to have found him.
Ana has been doing drop-ins with our pets for about 6 months now! Always reliable and gives great updates on the pets.
Camila was a great cat sitter and I could tell my two kitties were well taken care of. Will definitely use her again!
We have a feisty old kitty who is very hard to medicate. Andee has been more successful with medicating her than any other pet sitter we have tried! We are very grateful for Andee’s excellent animal care skills.
Liz is amazing! My cats absolutely love her, and I really appreciate how flexible and reliable she is. Always a great experience when we book with her!
I’ve had Alma scheduled for drop ins for the past few months on the days I work. She is really good and patient with my teenage dog. She even helps with his training. She’s very communicative, replies fast and leaves a detailed note with good pictures. Very flexible with her schedule especially in hotter days. Never missed a visit. Able to do any of my requests. She has been very consistent with me.
Maya was great! She arrived on time and my pups seemed to love her. Had daily photos and updates. We definitely would trust her and recommend her to pup sit again. Thank you Maya!!
Emily takes such good care of my cats! I just came home from a long vacation and my kitties are relaxed and happy. Emily plays with them and gives them treats, so they feel well taken care of. Emily is great!
Sarah is wonderful! I have two cuddly, social cats who enjoy human interaction while I’m gone. Sarah is a great communicator, shared plenty of pictures and updates, and my girls loved her. It was so nice to know my cats were in great hands.
Carrie is our cats’ favorite! They just spent 11 days with her visiting and we came home to happy cats
