“One of a kind! Kendall is incredibly reliable and a wonderful communicator. We felt our animals were in good hands the entire week. Last minute our cat got an infection and she didn’t bat an eye to administering his medication daily. Our cats were both relaxed and happy when we got home, plus the dishes were done and the house was tidy!”

“This was our first time using Rover and we hit the jackpot with Ezra! Our dogs absolutely adored him from the moment he arrived and were clearly so comfortable and happy in his care. While we were out of town, he took exceptional care of them—keeping them well-fed, exercised, and loved—and sent us regular, thoughtful updates that put our minds completely at ease. You can tell he genuinely cares about the dogs he’s watching. We felt so lucky to find him and would recommend Ezra to anyone in a heartbeat. Five stars isn’t enough!”

She was attentive to their routines, followed all medication instructions, and made sure they received plenty of attention and quality time. Communication was great throughout, and she kept me informed, which gave me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. She even went above and beyond by bringing in packages that arrived while we were away. Most importantly, I came home to two happy pups! I would absolutely book with Kristen again and highly recommend her!”

About: I have been the go to pet sitter since I was a kid. I love animals, and my friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets while they are away more than a few times! I enjoy spending time with animals and helping how I can. I work from home pretty regularly, and while I may have some obligations away from the home, it is typically never more than just a couple hours. Otherwise, I am available and at home. I never want a pet to feel like they are so out of their normal routine where they are unhappy, and am happy to cater to a families routine as long as notes are left!

About: I’ve been asked by many coworkers and friends to pet sit for them! I just thru hiked the AT this summer, so I’m willing to walk as far as your dog wants to. I grew up with an energetic German Shepherd named Comet. I am the most interested in pet sitting in the pet’s home environment. I just finished the Appalachian Trail this September, so I currently have a flexible schedule while job hunting. I can give pets exercise 2-3 times a day. In previous times I’ve pet sit, I’ve adapted to the pet’s normal routine to make them more comfortable while separated from their family! I try to read the needs of the pet and attend to that.

He sent adorable and hilarious pictures and was very responsive while we were away. He is also just an amazing person and conversationalist, and made us feel at ease leaving our pets and home in his care. Our home was clean when we came back—cleaner than we left it—and he even left us a delicious meal in the fridge! Five stars, 10/10, highly recommended!”

About: Hi there! I’m new to the Richmond area and can’t wait to explore the city, preferably with a furry friend (or two) by my side. I’ve been the go to pet sitter for family, friends, coworkers, and neighbors since 2007. Whether it’s playful pups, snuggly seniors, or quirky cats, I’ve cared for them all and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. • Super flexible schedule • Happy to stay in your home (I’m neat, respectful, and come with glowing references) • Excellent communicator and completely trustworthy with both pets and homes • Big believer in belly rubs, treat breaks, and whatever makes your pet happiest I can’t host pets in my own home but, I’m more than happy to travel or housesit wherever your fur baby feels most at home. I’d love to meet Richmond’s locals and give them all the love and care they deserve. My days are wide open and pet sitting is my favorite way to fill them! I am totally flexible and always happy to see a fur best friend! While I can’t offer boarding in my home (my cat kindly lets me live there), I’m happy to care for your pets in your home. I treat every house with respect and every pet with the same love, compassion, and excitement as if they were my own.

Douglas is always so great with our dogs! We appreciate the daily updates while we’re away, the care he has for our home, and it’s obvious the pups love when they get to hang with him too.

Nancy did an amazing job looking after my dog and cat when I was away! She was very professional in our communication and she was also flexible with my changing schedule. Nancy also would share very cute pictures of both pets while I was away and kept me updated on how they were doing. I would highly recommend Nancy for anyone looking for a pet sitter and I will definitely keep her in mind when I’m looking for another sitter in the future!

Conrad went above and beyond with taking care of our two dogs! Super responsive, friendly, careful with their needs (1 is a reactive dog, other has anxiety and is accident prone). When my dog started limping mid-stay, Conrad made sure to notify me and follow instructions perfectly and administer medication. I felt very comfortable knowing that Conrad was taking care of them diligently, ensuring they had the love, company, and support they needed when we were away for 3 days.

There are no words to describe how fabulous Kelly is. In a way it’s sad because my cats are very sad when I come home and they stand at the door and they watch for her to come back, but they’re just gonna have to get over that until we go away again.
