“Matt went so out of his way to make our dog comfortable and happy during a really chaotic move. He is the best you can find, and we will a.ways use him — can’t give him enough stars!!”
“Amy took great care of my boy Bruno! I got losts of picture and video updates while I was away, so I never had to worry. My boy came home happy and healthy. We will definitely be bringing him back in the future!”
“Tino and Coco love to visit Cindy, her family and her dogs. They get excited when we pull into her neighborhood. I am grateful that she always seems to be available when we need her.”
“Evie was amazing. We had a 6 night trip and she was able to help watch our 1 year old Dutch Shepherd. Large backyard which is great for the pup to run around in as well. We will definitely ask again when we go on another trip!”
“Hillary was absolutely wonderful watching my pup Zephyr for the day. She sent pictures while Zeph was staying with her and kept me updated on details regarding how he was adjusting and feeling while in her care. It was clear to see how much she cared and prioritized my pups comfort over everything. We will absolutely be coming back and I look forward to zeph staying here again!!! :)”
“Cyndi was terrific! Our girl felt right at home with her - which was unusual. Cyndi was awesome giving us regular photo updates, so we knew our baby was in good hands. I'm not at all sure that Penny missed us that's how good Cyndi's care was. We couldn't be happier.”
“Highly recommend. Damacia took care of Teddy very well.. Teddy attached to her as a family member. She updated every day with his picture. Thanks Damacia 🥰”
“Kendra did amazing Niko!! She let us know how he did every single day with a detailed explanation which made me feel super comfortable. She kept my mind at ease. Will forever be going to Kendra ❤️”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to take care of your loved one. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will ensure their comfort while you are away. I currently work full time M, Tu, Thurs, Fri. I am off on Wednesdays and weekends, so I am able to spend time with your little ones. During my lunch hour, I will usually go back home and walk my own dog. I walk my dog 2-3 times a day, I do not have a yard, so we love taking long walks. I also keep him in a crate while I am away at work, so I can easily crate yours as well. As a dog owner myself, I understand some dogs require more when it comes to either meals, medications, etc., and I am happily able to accommodate for those.
“Myrna was great with our dog Archie!! She's very experienced with watching dogs and her house seems like a great environment for dogs to have a great time. I'd highly recommend her!”
“Ashley was absolutely amazing with Onyx over the Christmas and New Year’s holiday! She kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout my time away, which gave me so much peace of mind. Onyx loved playing with her kids and looked so adorable cuddling with everyone, it was clear he felt right at home. When Onyx struggled a bit at night and was barking, Ashley was incredibly patient and kind. She reached out to ask for advice and even allowed calming treats to be dropped off while I was away, which I truly appreciated. She followed all of my special instructions perfectly, including giving him his Christmas presents on Christmas Day and feeding him a special holiday meal. I’m so grateful for the love and care she showed Onyx and would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate sitter!”
“Ethel was fantastic! She’s super communicative and easy to work with for scheduling, and she’s clearly very experienced with dogs and was very comfortable with my senior dog’s complicated meal/medication plan. I’d absolutely trust her to take care of my dog again!”
“Tiffany was awesome, she took Roxie very last minute with open arms. She sent me pictures throughout the duration & kept me updated. I felt very comfortable & will definitely be back.”
“I felt very good about leaving my dog with Amanda. I was gone almost a whole week but because of all the pictures and texts it didn’t seem that long. Amanda will definitely be my go to sitter the next time I need one.”
“Jay continues to be our go-to sitter in Richmond! I cannot recommend her highly enough. She takes great care of our dog, sending us photo and video updates, and is very responsive on text. We feel so safe with her!”
“Laura had my dog nova for a week.Great with keeping you updated on your pet.Nova had a blast will definitely use Laura again.My dog was sad to go home that’s how much fun she had”
“Michaela was absolutely fantastic with Zephyr and it was so clear he had such a great time with her this weekend! During our stay she sent tons of pictures to keep me updated on what Zeph was up to and was very communicative throughout the whole rover process. We met ahead of time during a meet and greet where Zeph got tons of time to get to know his new aunt Michaela and vice versa and it was clear to see how great she was with handling him from the start. We will absolutely be back and are so happy to have met you! Thanks so much for taking such great care of Zephyr!”
“Paula was excellent with Blue. We know this, because he didn't want to leave!!! :). Communication with Paula was great during our week trip. We received photos and reports each day of Blue's adventures. Blue had a great time and we will definitely call Paula again!”
“Dylan was great! Communication was awesome and followed up frequently. The pictures taken were better than my own and my boys looked happy. I will definitely book with Dylan again.”
Forest Hill dog parents share their Rover experiences
I am so happy that I boarded my dog and my cat with Jakiya during my most recent trip out of state. For the 10 days she watched them, I could not possibly have asked for better care than they received. Jakiya is great about communication and sent pics and videos every day, and so I had complete peace of mind. And that, in and of itself, helped make my trip a good one. I can tell Jakiya loves animals, and her calm and friendly manner definitely helped both pets feel at ease. I feel that's particularly important to note because my cat is blind, and while he's a seasoned traveler he doesn't always relax quickly in new places. I'm also appreciative that Jakiya has a fenced yard, and I know my dog felt the same way! I never look forward to leaving my pets behind, but having great care for them makes me a lot more comfortable when traveling. I'll absolutely be checking in with Jakiya next time I have a trip to plan!
Allison is the best! This is the second time we’ve used her and she’s nothing short of wonderful. She lives on our baby like they’re her own and she updated us so consistently that we felt like he was with us. I’ve used sooo many dogsitters in the past having had dogs my whole life & none compare to her level of service !
Carolina was very professional and helpful with my new puppy. She also sent pictures and updates on my puppy, which I appreciated very much considering this was my first time leaving my pup with a stranger. I would definitely use Carolina again and highly recommend her.
