Abby treated our kitty so well! She came by daily for the full chunk of time and send us pictures of Gracie all snuggled up and happy. 10/10 would recommend trusting Abby with your furry family members! Thank you so much Abby!

Best pet sitter ever!! Loves our dogs like they are her own and takes excellent care of them. She is extremely timely and reliable in addition to being very flexible. She has watched my dogs many times for day trips and overnight stays for vacation and has been great every time. I absolutely recommend her to anyone as she is a true animal/dog lover.

Kim was so great! Visits were consistent every day (which I know my cats appreciated), and many of the daily pictures she sent are so good I could frame them! I really enjoyed working with Kim and look forward to calling on her again the next time we’re out of town.

Madyson is a very conscientious and attentive sitter. She follows instructions well and her first and foremost plan is to make sure that your pets are safe and socialized. She's been nothing but wonderful for my little girl and always arrives on time and with a positive attitude. She follow safety protocols and offers a bubbly and warm personality. There'll be no worries about your furry friends if you look to her for care.

Wynston is wonderful with animals. She takes care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats when we go away. Our dogs wait at the door for her if we mention her name and the cats who stay away from everyone come running to her. She has been watching our pets for over 5 years. She has also now starting watching our neighbors dogs. She stay in the house with the animals so we know she is comforting them. She also works at an animal shelter and is trained to care for scared and sick animals which eases our mind, just incase something happens while we are away. If I had to give her 5 stars she would get 10!

My dog Henry is a rather difficult and does not do well when I am away from him (separation anxiety). But he was able to accept and do very well with Katherine. She was patient and kind with Henry when he was anxious to leave us. I was nervous to leave him alone, but she had a energy around her that was trusting and Henry did exceptionally well with her. I highly recommend Katherine!! Henry was well taken care of and she was on-time, and overall a very pleasant person to hire. If you are looking for someone to take care of your dog, she is wonderful and your dog will be in very good hands!

Connally was a TRUE professional agreeing to help us out with our 2 fearful dogs. Marty (barks & protective) and Mindy (whiny & hides) can take a long time to adapt to new people, but Connally won them over with her calm & consistent visits. Her positive reassurance helped my pups get comfortable with her quickly, and that is worth GOLD in my book. So very grateful to have found a reliable & knowledgeable sitter for my “special” doggies.

About: I have had the privilege of caring for a wide variety of pets, (small, big, old, young, feisty, etc.), since I was a little girl. From walking to feeding and bathing, friends, family and neighbors have and continue to trust me with their furry friends. Additionally, I have years of experience watching children and am very good in trying situations. I currently work part-time Wednesdays-Saturdays, 11-3, so my schedule is wide open for taking care of your little friends. I have a car and am willing to drive a good distance, too:) Regardless of location, I like to make sure all pets are comfortable and have any toys, beds, treats, etc. that they require. I like to do whatever they like to do- throwing a ball around, going for a walk, playing with toys, (Please let me know if there is anything your pet particularly likes:). Additionally, I am meticulous when it comes to any and all instructions. In my neighborhood, we have a lot of pets being walked around all day long, so I like taking a walk to let the pets 'socialize'.

My wife has always had someone to watch her dog, but we recently built a house and she moved to Goochland County. It was our first time using the Rover service and Riley was great. She sent notes and pictures to keep us updated on each stay. She was great and will be using her services again!

We had the pleasure of booking with Ryan. He took wonderful care of our senior cat and house! Our kitty needs medication 2x daily and leaving him with Ryan was such a relief. Caring for our cat isn’t something just anybody can do. It definitely takes a ‘cat person’ to care for our cat, Kitty is shy, has separation anxiety and just isn’t the friendliest cat. Ryan was everything we needed and knew how to handle him, his experience with cats made all the difference for us on our trip. He was very clean and kept our house even cleaner than when we left. We appreciated all the updates and we will absolutely be booking with Ryan again in the future!
