“Alex was amazing - very professional! He was very attentive to our wishes and instructions, excellent communicator, punctual and all the things you would expect from hiring a pro. The house was left clean and he genuinely seems to care for our pets and enjoy their company. Got photos every day and followed our complicated medication schedule. The dogs seemed happy and healthy when we returned! We HIGHLY recommend!”

“Oli is wonderful! She stayed at our house and watched our pup for a few nights and it was a great experience. Oli provided updates and photos as needed and she took such great care of our pup and home. She went above and beyond!”


About: I’ve always been an animal person and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and reptiles, including my own ball python. I also have an Australian Shepherd who can be pretty anxious, so I’m used to being patient with nervous pets and helping them feel safe and comfortable. I’ve pet sat for both dogs and cats, including a cat with a more aggressive personality, so I understand the importance of respecting each animal’s boundaries and adapting to their individual needs. I love getting outside and taking walks, and I’m very familiar with the Richmond area. I also worked as a house cleaner for two years, so I’m comfortable being in clients’ homes and understand the importance of being respectful, trustworthy, and reliable. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe and happy while you’re away! I work about 20 hours a week as an esthetician and make my own schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. Because I set my own hours, I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I would love to fit pet care into my routine. I believe every pet is different, so I do my best to follow their normal routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while keeping up with their feeding schedule and any specific instructions you provide. For cats staying in my home, I’ll provide a calm, safe environment where they can settle in at their own pace. Having lived with multiple cats of various personalities, I understand that some cats are social while others prefer their space, and I’m happy to accommodate both! I will stay in regular communication, providing updates and photos so you always know how they’re doing!
“Nancy did a wonderful job caring for our home and our three very different dogs while we were away. She was responsible, communicative, and great about checking in whenever she had questions. She carefully followed all instructions, and it was clear our dogs were well cared for and comfortable in her care. We came home to happy dogs and a house that was in great shape. We truly appreciated the peace of mind she gave us and would absolutely recommend her to others.”

“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.”

“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!”

“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!”

“I am absolutely blown away by Jakiya and could not recommend her highly enough. She communicated like a pro and took exceptional care of my Finn and Vada! And, my house looked cleaner than when I left! I am already preparing to book her for another sit. My Finn and Vada wouldn’t have it any other way.”


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.
“Jordyn was great! She was available super last minute July4th weekend. We set up a meet and greet same day and I was able to show her the routine for my pup and she followed it to a tee. She gave me consistent updates and communication regarding my pup! I felt super comfortable with her caring for him and he loved her. She also was super respectful of my place. I highly recommend her!”

“Victor was a great companion to Onion - they took to each other right away. Victor was respectful of my place and left it in great condition. Victor is now on my list of pet sitters for the future.”

“Kaleigh is amazing! This was the first time leaving my pup and Kaleigh made me feel at ease with consistent communication and updates. She took the time to learn my dog’s personality and routine so she could be as comfortable as possible. I’d definitely recommend Kaleigh!”

“Tiana is the ultimate professional. I almost had to cancel the booking due to unforeseen circumstances. She handled it with understanding, grace, and patience. I’m glad I was able to make alternate plans and keep my booking with her. She was early to everything related to the booking which shows how serious she takes her job. I made a short notice decision to come home early and Tiana responded and adjusted well to that also. She made sure the puppies were taken care of and everything in the house was in order so I can just go straight to bed.”

“Violet has stayed with our two dogs and cat multiple times and takes great care of them (and our house). She's communicative. sends pictures and updates, allowing us relax and not worry about home while traveling because we know everything is in good hands. We highly recommend Violet!”

Ginny took such amazing care of my Tillie-Bean! She kept me updated with plenty of photos and messages, which made being away from my sweet pea so much easier. Tillie had such a great time that I’m pretty sure she’ll be requesting Ginny as her sitter again in the future! 🐾💕

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.

Nancy did a wonderful job caring for our home and our three very different dogs while we were away. She was responsible, communicative, and great about checking in whenever she had questions. She carefully followed all instructions, and it was clear our dogs were well cared for and comfortable in her care. We came home to happy dogs and a house that was in great shape. We truly appreciated the peace of mind she gave us and would absolutely recommend her to others.

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!

I have a very anxious pup who does not do well apart from me. Camryn did so great with him, it has been one of the easiest transitions back home and he seems very calm! My house was also perfectly kept. Very happy and will definitely be a repeat client of Camryn’s if she will stay again!

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!
