“Lindy was amazing! They gave us great updates every day on how Laika was doing, and what they were up to everyday. And lots of adorable pictures in which it was clear Laika was having a great time with them. Highly recommend!”


“Viv was fantastic with Mochi! She kept us updated throughout our trip, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. I loved getting the cute pictures and hearing that everything was going well. It’s clear she enjoys caring for pets and she is very trustworthy. We were so happy with the experience that we rebooked her immediately. I would absolutely recommend Viv to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”


“Celeste was great! They house sat for me and took care for my cats, sent me pictures and made sure they got attention, fed, and cleaned the litter box. Would definitely recommend them!”


About: My name is Nick and I am a teacher in Chesterfield county looking to use my love for animals as a way to make some extra money over the summer. I have had dogs and cats growing up my whole life and currently have a dog named Bagel and a cat named Friday. I also have lots of experience dog/cat sitting for friends and family over the years ever since I was in high-school. I am a teacher so I won’t be working during the summers so I will have unlimited time during the day/night to take care of your pets and their needs! Once the school year starts I can do weekends and afternoon/nights! I have a lot of energy myself so if your pets love to get exercise/play around I am very up for that. I also try to be very thorough with the pet care instructions and will ask questions/for clarification to ensure I am giving your pet the best care as possible.

“We booked Emily for house and dog sitting while we were on vacation. She did an excellent job of taking care of our dog and kept us updated regularly with pictures during our vacation. She took good care of the house too. We can highly recommend her, and would definitely use her again.”
“Sara was a lovely sitter! She was extremely communicative and sent lots of photos. We felt so comfortable with her watching our pup in our home while we were gone and we could truly trust our dog was in good hands. We came home to a spotless house! She’s going to be our new go-to. Thank you so much Sara!”

“Wesley was wonderful! Super responsive, communicative, and confident with our fur crew from the start. Our dogs can be pretty high energy, but Wesley handled them with patience and clear commands. We’ll definitely be booking with Wesley again!”


About: I have experience caring for dogs through both long-term and everyday responsibilities, including helping raise my aunt’s dog from puppyhood and regularly caring for my boyfriend’s dog. My responsibilities have included walking, feeding, playtime, maintaining routines, and providing companionship to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care and attention I give to each pet individually. I understand that being away from their owner can be stressful for some animals, so I focus on creating a calm, reassuring, and positive environment where they feel secure and loved. My experience caring for puppies has also taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of paying close attention to behavior, routines, and energy levels. I treat every pet with the same care, compassion, and responsibility I would want for my own animals. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for my own cats. I make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention and playtime throughout the day. I even take my cat on walks, so I’m very attentive to both physical activity and emotional enrichment. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so being patient, observant, and consistent with their routines comes very naturally to me. II believe pets communicate their needs through their behavior and body language, so I always pay close attention to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I respect each pet’s boundaries while also giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and care. In both my home and a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, maintaining their routine, and making sure they don’t feel lonely or stressed while their owner is away.
“Charlotte was wonderful with my dog cher as always! She sent me tons of pictures and kept me updated on how things were going. Looking forward to having her stay with us again soon.”

“Kaleigh watched our dog overnight this weekend and was very communicative throughout the time we were away. She sent multiple pictures and let us know how our dog was doing. We appreciate her taking such good care of our pup for us!”

“Violet did an amazing job watching Finn! I had her stay at my place while I was out, she was very professional and cleaned very well before she left! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to come watch their dog!”

“Alex is the best, from the first meeting, my dog Bebe was just smitten with Alex. I could tell Bebe would be in good hands with Alex and I wasn't wrong. I got lots of pictures of Bebe while I was gone and Alex not only took excellent care of my baby but also my home. It was nice to know that both were taken care of while I was away. You can tell from how Alex interacts with animals, that they are their passion and it shows in the care that they provide. I would definitely have Alex watch my baby again and recommend them to all my friends!”

“Victor did great sitting for Ellie, kept her company all day, listened to her needs, gave her food and her medicine. Would absolutely book him again in the future!”

“Savannah and Tillie are now besties! Savannah was amazing—she took great care of my Tillie Bean and my home. She sent regular updates, brought in packages as needed, and kept everything clean and well-maintained while I was away. I’ll definitely have her stay at my home and watch Tillie again in the future.”


“Jamie watched our pets overnight for 4 days/3 nights and was amazing! Our power had even gone out for a couple days and she took great care of our pets, powerless and all! She sent plenty of pictures and updates, took them to the dog park, and brought packages that got delivered into our house. 10/10 would recommend Jamie!”

“Dawn was absolutely wonderful! She kept us consistently updated with daily check-in photos of our pups, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. I had a pretty detailed (and admittedly long!) list of instructions for our dogs, and she took the time to carefully review everything with patience and professionalism. She followed through on every detail and made sure our fur babies were not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and comfortable. It’s clear that Dawn truly loves what she does. Her communication was excellent, and she was always quick to respond if we had a question. Knowing our “dog kids” were in such capable, attentive hands made it so much easier for us to relax and fully enjoy our vacation. We’re so grateful for her care and would absolutely trust her with our pups again!”

Viv was fantastic with Mochi! She kept us updated throughout our trip, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. I loved getting the cute pictures and hearing that everything was going well. It’s clear she enjoys caring for pets and she is very trustworthy. We were so happy with the experience that we rebooked her immediately. I would absolutely recommend Viv to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

Elizabeth took wonderful care of Roo while we were away for four days. She was incredibly flexible, communicative, and made us feel completely at ease throughout our entire time away. She sent frequent updates and pictures, which we really appreciated. It was clear that Roo was well cared for, and Elizabeth left our home very clean and treated it with respect. We would absolutely book with Elizabeth again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter.

Lindy was so lovely. She was a great communicator- she sent me photos and a pup update each day. She took careful care of Sadie’s senior needs. When I got home, Sadie girl seemed at ease and the house was in order. I am grateful for Lindy’s time spent with Sadie and would recommend her as a sitter to anyone.

Jordan is the best! She took care of our dog for a week in our home. We instantly knew we were in good hands at our meet and greet. Jordan is very kind, responsible and clearly loves animals. She proactively sent us multiple photos each day we were gone as well as updates on how our dog was doing. Our dog can be difficult around new people but Jordan handled him so well. Came back to the house being in excellent shape, too. Highly recommend Jordan, we would love to work with her again!

Douglas was such a great pick to hang with our pups and care for our home while we were gone. Our pups like to keep things interesting and Douglas’s patience with them is not only appreciated, but is admired, especially when it came to caring for our senior dog. We would gladly welcome Douglas back to our home, and I know the pups would love that too.

Keith is a dream! We were rover sitters for years when we were younger and I have NO idea why we’ve been bugging our friends to pet sit for years and not just use Rover ourselves. Keith made it easy to be a believer. He replied to me at 9pm 2 days before a request met us the next day and was at our home on time as promised the following morning. He was so professional, felt immediately easy to trust, a great communicator and of course perfect guardian of the fur children. I do not recommend doing what we did - plan ahead as I plan to in the future. Not proud of the last minute reach out but so glad Keith was there to our rescue. My dog who barks at everyone immediately took to him too. Keith is a peach and we can’t wait to book with him again!

I can’t say enough good things about Miranda. It’s clear she has a real knack for animals; my two dogs were so happy and well-exercised under her care. She was reliable, on time, and made sure everything ran smoothly. We’ve definitely found our go-to sitter and will be using her from now on!
