“Erica is absolutely amazing. From the moment we connected, I felt completely at ease leaving my cat in her care. She’s reliable, attentive, and clearly loves animals. She followed every instruction perfectly, kept me updated and sent the sweetest updates and photos that made being away so much easier. My cat warmed up to her right away. which says everything. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and genuinely caring, Erica is the one. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely be booking her again!”

About: I have two pets, one cat and one dog. I have lots of experience with walking dogs, trained and untrained. My dog Bleu has severe anxiety with cars and I have managed to help him overcome this fear and have accommodated to his needs. My cat Ghost is still a kitten and loves being cuddled. I love pets and have had ferrets, ginuea pigs, birds, and fish growing up. I love walking, so if you are interested in booking, I can walk your dog up to 3 miles per day. I am currently working during the day so I have free time during early mornings and afternoons to either take your pet on walks, to the dog park, or just play in the backyard. My dog is crate trained and your animal will not be bothered by him as he is a gentle and sweet dog. I also have multiple rooms where animals can be separated.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 14 years old. My neighbors have trusted me to watch their pets for extended periods of time. I love all animals! I work from home until the summer so my schedule is very flexible! I can walk your dog most of the day during the week. I provide loving, attentive, and responsible care for pets in my home and/or my client's home. I make sure each pet has fresh food and water, a clean and comfortable environment, regular exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, routines, and special needs. I also provide companionship, monitor their health and behavior, and keep owners updated with messages and photos so they have peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I am a recent graduate from The University of Virginia who grew up in an animal-loving home. I am an attentive pet sitter and dog walker with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and in-home care, focusing on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining their normal routines. I’ve grown up caring for animals and currently have a friendly Bichon and two cats of my own, so I understand how important trust, consistency, and individualized care are. My experience includes daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, basic grooming, litter box care, and administering simple medications when needed. I’m especially patient with shy, senior, or anxious pets and always take a calm, respectful approach. I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available for daytime walks and visits, evenings, and weekends, and I can accommodate pets who need multiple check-ins or extra attention throughout the day. I take pride in being dependable, communicative, and attentive to detail. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure pet parents feel confident and at ease while they’re away. I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available for daytime visits, walks, and extended care, as well as evenings and weekends. Because my schedule is flexible, I’m able to accommodate pets who need consistent routines, multiple check-ins, or extra attention throughout the day. I live in a calm, pet-friendly home with one friendly Bichon and two cats who are well-socialized around other animals. I carefully supervise all interactions and can easily separate pets if needed. I follow each pet’s routine closely, prioritize cleanliness and safety, and communicate regularly with pet parents to ensure peace of mind while they’re away.

About: Please ask to see my Trusted HouseSitter profile for additional reviews and information! I provide pet care in Richmond and Charlottesville and the surrounding areas, though I am also happy to travel to other states with advanced notice. I have a breadth of experience caring for my former pets and my home, as well as house and pet sitting for friends and for my clients. I grew up on a farm and cared for goats, horses, cows, dogs, cats, sheep, and poultry. I make an excellent house/petsitter due to my experience with and love for animals and my tidy and loving personality! ** I charge $45 / night for 1-6 night house stays, but have a sliding scale for longer sits (negotiable at the time of request). I am open to traveling farther distances for 1+ week sits. I am attending VCU for my MSW M-F from 8-4, so I have limited availability for midday potty breaks/check-ins during the week, but I have open availability most evenings and weekends. For boarding requests, my partner works from my home and is available to offer potty breaks/check-ins for pets while I’m at school. I’m happy with staying overnight for housesitting or sharing my home for boarding! I have the utmost care and respect for my clients pets and homes and treat them as if they were my own. I make sure to communicate expectations as best as possible to make sure we’re all on the same page.

About: I’m a life long animal lover with hands-on experience helping out friends and family and caring for my own cat, Leia! I have a strong understanding of maintaining feeding schedules, walking routines and providing enrichment. I also understand each pet has their own personality. My approach to pet care is very individualized and considerate. I know leaving them is hard but I am dedicated to helping them feel safe and secure to ease your worries. I work full-time 12-8p Sunday-Thursday so I am available before and after those times for drop ins, walking etc. Fridays and Saturdays I am open all day! My cat Leia gets consistent wet food every morning and evening with dry food mid day while I am gone. She has constant access to water, vertical look out spots and a “catio” to give her outside enrichment the safest way possible.

About: Hi! My name is Sophia and I love to walk around and explore this city with my dog! We go on long walks and admire all of the beautiful neighborhoods and districts around us. My favorite part of the day is when I come home to my pup! And whenever I meet or get to hang out with other dogs my day is made. I just love to be around animals and learning how to communicate and connect with each unique personality! I was the neighborhood dog sitter growing up and my favorite time of year was when my neighbors would go out of town and I could watch their pups! I learned how to care for and handle all different kinds of dogs and I was always so happy to be around them. The best day of my life (so far) was the day I got a pup of my own! I believe that dogs can change people’s lives and bring so much happiness into the world. I am fully available to care for animals with my current schedule. I work from home but my job is winding down and will be doing pet care until my next full time opportunity. I have so much love for animals and their safety and health is my priority. I have two dogs that are my world and I always make sure they have everything they need. I will put the same care and effort into caring for other people's animals and will always treat them as my own. I make sure to spend as much time as possible with my pups and keep them as healthy and happy as I can.

About: I've been taking care of family pets since I was about 12, I've dealt with diapers, regular medicine intakes, and even potty training! I also have 2 doggies of my own a Lab/Australian Sheppard and a Rottweiler I am a part time Student at Virginia Commonwealth University studying Nuclear Medicine. I am mostly doing prerequisites so I will have plenty of time to hang with the doggos! My rottie, Gemma, was the first dog I ever had leash trouble with. It was getting too much for me to handle so I took her to a dog trainer. During those sessions I learned a lot about proper leash etiquette as a walker!

Caitlin did an excellent job feeding our 4 kitties while we were out of town a few times over the past few weeks. She comes on time, takes such great photos of our babies, and stays to play with them and give them love. Communication is always clear and efficient, and even though this is my first time using Rover she’s made it easy! Thank you Caitlin!

Nick is a fantastic pet sitter! He's super reliable and very good with our cat, who doesn't become fond of people easily. He sends us a picture each time we work with him every day! And he remembers a long time in advance if we book with him early. He's flexible and understanding if we ask for something a little particular like how our cat likes to play. 100% recommend him! What a deal. 🐈
