“Alex took great care of our two dogs! He sent daily updates and photos. Our dogs really enjoyed their time with him. He left the house clean and tidied up. Very happy with the care our dogs got while we were gone, especially our senior!”
“carly did a wonderful job taking care of my two pups and my older kitty. my pups are high energy and high velcro so they need to walk about 6 miles a day and a lot of cuddle time, she was more than happy to take care of their needs. carly sent a lot of pictures which i really appreciate and was on time for all of the check-ins we discussed. i’m a helicopter mom so i always like more messages and updates but she did a great job, i look forward to booking with carly again!”

“Kate was wonderful with my Ivy! I contacted her last minute when another pet sitter fell through and she was so quick to help. She even met me the morning I was heading out to chat, go over everything for Ivy, and meet her to make sure everyone was comfortable. Ivy is a bit more medically complex with her chronic enteropathies and Kate did a great job managing her diet and medications. I would absolutely use her again.”

“This was my first time having someone stay at my house with my pup instead of bringing her somewhere. I completely trust Oli with her, it went well! I look forward to Oli helping my pup again for a wedding in September :)”


About: I have over eight years of hands on pet care experience, including caring for a diabetic dog requiring consistent monitoring and medication management. I have cared for small, medium, and large dogs, as well as cats and other household pets. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and have a dog of my own. I’m available for regular walks, check ins, and plenty of attention throughout the day, with extra time on weekends for long walks, dog parks, and outdoor play. Whether in my home or a client’s home, the pet’s safety, comfort, and well being always come first. I follow their routine closely, maintain a clean environment, provide attentive supervision, and ensure they feel secure and cared for at all times.

“Very friendly and responsive. Emily came by on short notice to meet the dogs, sent lots of pictures, and when I got back, the house was in the same shape as I left it. Will definitely use her again!”
“Victor was an exceptional guest and a wonderful caretaker for my two dogs. He followed all instructions carefully, maintained great communication while I was away, and most importantly, my dogs absolutely adored him. The house was spotless when I returned! Victor went above and beyond to ensure everything was in order, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets and home were in such capable hands. I would not hesitate to welcome him back again. Highly recommended!”

“Katherine was wonderful! I hired her last minute and she was very accommodating to my schedule. She took great care of my dog and I would definitely hire her again in the future ?”

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.
“Camryn was great. She was very communicative and we could tell she cared nicely for our two boys. She even noticed one of our boys had some itchy ears and offered to clean them out. Hopefully she is available next time we have to go out of town.”

“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.”


“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!”

“Haley was absolutely amazing. She kept me updated on my babies the entire time she was there with pics and messages. She took care of my home as though it was hers. I would absolutely recommend Haley to anyone who wants peace of mind when leaving your babies when having to travel. Thank you Haley!!”

“Sidney was so gentle and loving to our shy kitty! Bambino took to her immediately and when we came home, he was a happy clam as if we hadn’t even been away! We would 100% recommend her and will be booking her again for our future getaways 🥰. Thank you so much, Sidney!”

“Jacob performed a stand up service taking care of our four animals and our house while we were out of the country. He was always available to communicate updates, left our house looking very clean, and even worked with us last minute to add more time after we made a scheduling error. We would definitely recommend his services and will likely rebook should we need pet sitting again in the future.”

About: I am recently retired from a 27 year career with adults with disabilities on a 500 acre farm. I have owned 3 dogs and 1 cat as an adult and lived with dogs throughout my childhood. I would love to come care for your pet(s) in their own home while you are away or on vacation. I prefer medium or small sized dogs and a cat or two. I am discreet, clean and responsible. If preferred, I could also just drop in for a visit of feeding, playing with or letting out for toileting. I live in Richmond and would drive up to 20 miles to provide this service. I can provide character references as well as house/dog sitting refernces. I won't let you down! I am currently retired and have flexible availability.i am.able to sleep.over at your home or make daily visits. I travel a few weeks each month but am available quite often. I can come and care for your dogs or cats in their own home. I can sleep over or come a few times in the day, whichever works well for you and your pet(s). I could also just walk your dog about 3 times a day, depending on how far you are from my Manchester neighborhood.
“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!”

Fairmount pet parents share their Rover experiences
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!

Ginny was wonderful with Arlo! She took him on nice long walks, sent detailed updates about how he was doing, and shared great photos. I felt really comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. She was attentive, communicative, and clearly cared about his wellbeing. I’ll definitely be booking with her again.

Charlotte was absolutely a perfect choice to leave our hounds and old man pup with! You can tell that they were very well loved on by her and that she took great care of them. We appreciate her patience and communication with us and would absolutely work with her again. She took great care of our home and went as far as washing all our bedding before we came home too. Thank you so much again, Charlotte!

Dawn is very pleasant and personable, very loving and caring towards my sweet dog. Sent photos every day of her stay, which kept me confident about my dog and the care she was receiving. Dawn took her for neighborhood walks. Left a very favorable impression!!
