Selby responded to my request within minutes whichwas great because I had to leave immediately for an emergency trip and leave my fur babies behind. She took excellent care of them and even got my 4 feral cats to become friendlier and more receptive to human contact. I had to trust her with my home and my special fur babies without meeting her in person. She came to my home and did her job well and efficiently. She even brought my numerous packages in they were piling up at my door. She can be trusted in your home alone. And she left my cat area cleaner than when I left them. Good job Selby!

Julia was such a wonderful help with our two cats!! When I am away from them I want to make sure they are fully taken care of and she went above and beyond. Her communication was impeccable and her attention to detail was stellar! I hope to continue using her services when we are away as I had minimal anxiety about being away from my babies, I highly recommend booking with Julia for all your pet needs!

Cheyenne was super professional caring and looking after our orange cat Cheeto! She visited him everyday we were out of town and gave us updates on what he’d been up to. She even cleaned up an unexpected mess and left our house in better condition. Cheeto seemed to enjoy her visits and I would definitely hire Cheyenne again for all my future pet-sitting needs! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Emma was so great! This was my first time hiring a cat sitter and was kind of nervous about it, but she made me so comfortable and she gave me great updates about how my cats were doing. I appreciated the photos and detailed summaries after her visits. She also cat sit over Christmas and was able to do it last minute, so I feel very lucky.

What can I say? Holli is simply phenomenal! This was our first trip away from the boys and there was some trepidation on our part. We booked Holli for a familiarization visit before our trip. She was outgoing, interactive and all about getting to know Vincent and Jules. We booked 2, hour long visits each day, morning and evening. Holli arrived, took care of the boys, spent time playing with them, ensuring all their needs were met and provided updates and pictures of each visit. Jules is the shyest of the two and it took a couple visits, but he was warming up to her. Thank you Holli! You are superb and we greatly appreciate your taking care of our furry family members. You are our go-to for any and all future Rover needs.

About: Hi! My name is Lucas and I've been a dog owner my whole life. I currently live with my partner in Fredericksburg. I'm a true dog lover and always have been. Pets have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember and I really enjoy caring for them. I've been watching people's cats and dogs for over a three now and have experience in all aspects of pet care. I walk friends’ and siblings’ dogs every day and have cared for others' pets in their household staying overnight for weeks at a time. I offer walks, drop-in visits to check on and play with pets, or overnight stays at your house to take care of your companion. I'm looking forward to working with you! I work a remote work from home job with flexible hours. This allows me to fit caring for your pets seamlessly into my daily routine. I’ve lived with and cared for pets of varying temperaments and personalities my whole life, so I feel comfortable and at ease with animals. I’ll aim to keep your pet comfortable and well taken care of according to your specific needs.

Can’t say enough about Ligia! She did an excellent job caring for Loki and Odin while I was on travel. Odin (the alpha) usually fusses and is upset with me when I return from travel. Not this time. They both were less stressed and had a calmer demeanor. Ligia’s daily visits and interactions put them at ease. So thankful and appreciative!

About: I have been taking care of dogs/cats for over 7 years now! I have two dogs of my own and I have had two cats in the past. I am a very outgoing, energetic and loving person when it comes to pets. I have had to take care of numerous dogs and cats for neighbors and family friends and friends in general and they all rely on me to take good care for them and I end up getting the job done! I am a student athlete at the University of Mary Washington, now that our season is over, my hours are more flexible and I have ample time to go on walks and watch the pets so they get a good stretch and playtime. I live in an apartment but I have a fenced grass area outside of the apartment where the dog can roam freely while always being under my watch. My roommates are dog people so they will definitely be playing with the pet as well to make sure they are having a good time.

Jessica has been absolutely wonderful with our crew of five cats and dog. She is incredibly attentive, thorough, and clearly very experienced with animals. She handled everything with ease including giving meds to our cats with no issues at all. Jessica watched our cats over Christmas. She took excellent care of not only them but also our home, and her updates reassured us every step of the way. It was clear our pets were comfortable, happy, and well cared for. We will absolutely be booking her again!

Mary B. was an awesome sitter for Dodger. Dodger is typically a very shy cat and he really loved her. She even stayed a little extra when my kitty threw up on the carpet. She did an awesome job while I was out of the country and was very respectful of my home. She also sent me beautiful photos and videos of him which were wonderful to view while I was away. I would recommend Mary as a pet sitter to anyone with a cat.
