“Kade was SO great with Kelso! This was my first time using Rover and I felt so much better knowing my pup was in good hands. Kade is very communicative, sent lots of pics, and went above and beyond - taking a package in and making sure my pup Kelso has enough water. Definitely recommend!!”

5. Sydney G.
“Sydney was amazing with my sweet dog PJ. I came to Richmond from out of town for a few days and was grateful to coordinate several dog walks with Sydney. PJ is not a city dog, so I was a little hesitant on how best to handle downtown Richmond. Sydney knows the area well as a VCU student, and she was able to find green space and waterfront walks for PJ. She also did well to secure arrangements with me on short notice. I will certainly reach out to her again on my next visit to Richmond. Thanks Sydney!”

14. Talia C.
About: I’ve taken care of multiple breeds and of varying ages. I’ve also helped train my own puppy, as well as friends’ dogs, the basics like potty training, sit, etc. I’m quite comfortable with puppies under 1 year old all the way to our senior friends. I’m currently a full-time dog mom and pet caretaker. I just graduated from grad school and don’t start my new job until this fall, and I thought - what a better way to spend my summer off taking care of my favorite animal and helping other pet owners? I’m an open communicator and can be available how you need me with the proper heads-up! I live in an apartment building with my fiancé and our sweet, cuddly boy dog (neutered). There’s 3 parks within walking distance and a dog park just an 8min drive away. Since I live in an apartment, I would recommend only small to medium dogs stay with us, but I’m always willing to travel to clients’ houses for dogs of all sizes. I treat my clients dogs as if they were my own fur baby. The love, kindness, & attention I give my sweet boy is the same love, kindness, & attention your dog will receive. My friend is also a vet tech I can always reach out to for advice/questions and I myself am a certified (human) healthcare professional.
15. Andrew C.
“Couldn’t ask for a better person to service my needs . My dog has been noticeably in better spirits since Andrew started walking her . Extremely reliable, professional and accommodating.”
16. Amanda M.
“Amanda did an awesome job walking my dog Bosco! She was great at communicating over the app and really managed to win over my nervous dog. I would 100% have her watch my pets again!”
17. Robbi S.
“Robbi loves our sweet pup when we can’t be there to love on her ourselves! She’s a great communicator and very reliable, kind, and flexible. We are so grateful for Robbi!”
18. Chloe W.
“As always, had a great experience with Chloe. My two dogs were happy to see her, and she was able to accommodate their sickness with a couple extra care steps. She's super easy to work with and great with the pets.”
19. Emma N.
“Emma has been my go to cat sitter for me for many years. The litter box is always clean when I get home and she is great about making sure my cat takes all of her medications. I always appreciate the nice photos she sends me too.”
20. Le'Quitta R.
“I wholeheartedly recommend Le'Quitta as an exceptional pet caregiver. She has been an incredible source of support for my dog, providing not only expert care but also genuine love and attention. Le'Quitta's extensive knowledge of pet behavior and health is evident in the way she handles my dog’s needs, ensuring he receives the right exercise, nutrition, and affection. Her patience and understanding create a nurturing environment that makes my dog feel safe and happy. It's clear that she truly loves animals, and her dedication shines through in every interaction. I couldn’t ask for a better caregiver for my furry baby.”
