“First time having my dog watched by Zach he did everything I asked of him and more and on top of that was extremely friendly and kind! My dog had an accident or two didn't, cause a issue about it while I was for business I would definitely recommend leaving your dog with him”
“Very kind, professional and knowledgeable. We have a 2 year old German shepherd who is huge and reactive and they were patient and kind with him. We will definitely be sending Rocky back”
“Kourtney agree to watch my dog Fen fairly short notice for the weekend and did such an amazing job. From first contact/convo to drop off, stay and pick up, it was seamless! She kept me updated all weekend and sent cute pics too! Our first time using rover in this area as we are new, and are so glad we found someone trusting and so good to our boy! We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future! 🐾”
“I am thrilled to give Sheri a 5-star review for taking care of my pet, Happy, during boarding! Sheri went above and beyond to ensure Happy's comfort and happiness. I was particularly impressed with the regular updates she sent, complete with photos, to keep me informed and at ease. Her dedication, attention to detail, and love for animals truly shine through. I am so grateful to have found such a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Sheri, for taking such wonderful care of Happy! I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking top-notch pet care.”
“Had a great experience working with Deven and Tyreek! They took great care of our dog and provided excellent daily updates. He looked very happy in all his pics!”
“Great sitters for our 3 lb Yorkie for 2 weeks. He wasn’t feeling great 3days before our trip but they gave him his meds and got him back to his usual playful self well before we got home. Sent photos every day to see how he was doing. Will always book them as our first choice”
“Alexander was such a great host for my Akita. He treated Rocko just like his own and I did not have to worry for even one second. He is great with communication and just great with dogs. Not everyone knows how to handle an Akita or big dog - Alexander 100% did and did the best job. I would recommend him 100% if you want your pet to be in the best hands. And I will be using him again!. Thank you agajn Alexander!”
“My dog had a really lovely stay with Alexandra, she was very attentive and sent many updates! She was able to take my dog after another sitter cancelled, and I greatly appreciate that”

“Allison is confident and understanding when handling our dog reactive pittie. He really enjoyed his stay with her and I had peace of mind knowing we could leave him with someone as knowledgable as her in dog behavior, that also understands his needs for attention and comfort. We're new to Virginia and so relieved to have found her!”
“Maggie and Josh were phenomenal! It was our first time leaving our pup with sitters, so we were a bit nervous, but we couldn't have asked for a better experience. They were incredibly friendly and communicative, sending photo and video updates of our boy daily, which we REALLY appreciated. This helped put us at ease. Our pup seemed extremely happy in every single photo and video—we joked that he probably didn't want to leave because he was having so much fun! I could tell he had a great time, and Maggie and Josh seemed to enjoy him as well. They took such great care of him, and we'll definitely book them again in the future. I'm sure our pup would love that too!”

“Ellysia is so kind and warm. She takes such good care of Harley and Harley came home so happy! She’s also very communicative and sent a bunch of goofy photos of Harley! Will definitely book with Ellysia again!”
About: I’ve always been an animal person and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and reptiles, including my own ball python. I grew up with an Australian Shepherd who can be very anxious, so I’m used to being patient with nervous pets and helping them feel safe and comfortable. I’ve pet sat for animals of all different temperaments, including a cat with a more aggressive personality, so I understand the importance of respecting each animal’s boundaries and adapting to their individual needs. I love spending time outdoors and taking walks, and I know the Richmond area well. With two years of professional housekeeping experience, I’m comfortable caring for both pets and homes with the same level of respect and attention to detail I’d want for my own. My goal is to provide dependable care for both your pet and your home, while making sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! I work about 20 hours a week as an esthetician and make my own schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. Because I set my own hours, I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I would love to fit pet care into my routine. I believe every pet is different, so I do my best to follow their normal routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while keeping up with their feeding schedule and any specific instructions you provide. For cats staying in my home, I’ll provide a calm, safe environment where they can settle in at their own pace. Having lived with multiple cats of various personalities, I understand that some cats are social while others prefer their space, and I’m happy to accommodate both! I will stay in regular communication, providing updates and photos so you always know how they’re doing!
“Christen was awesome! She was easy to communicate with and was very transparent with photos and videos of how the stay was going. I would book her again! My dog returned home happy and tired from all the playing! Her doggo Leo is adorable and played so well with my pup!”
“We were very happy with the care that Jennifer gave to our dog. This was our first experience leaving our dog so we were nervous but Jennifer made us feel comfortable and sent pictures each day. Jennifer is very experienced and well trained in dealing with different types of dogs.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Highland Springs
Anais took care of our cat, Leo, for eight days while we were traveling, and she was absolutely incredible. She sent us pictures and videos every single day, keeping us updated on how he was adjusting. Leo started out very shy, hiding under her bed, but Anais was so patient and gentle with him. Thanks to her kindness, we watched his confidence grow — from peeking out, to playing, to letting her stroke his head. By the end of the stay, he was watching TV on the sofa with her and even sleeping on her bed. Anais is truly the perfect sitter for your fur baby. She’s loving, attentive, and clearly does this because she genuinely enjoys animals, not for the money. Her rates are more than reasonable, and her care is priceless. She is our forever sitter.
Grace was absolutely phenomenal. So good with my boy and GREAT with updates. Picked him up looking extremely happy and healthy and I am very thankful to Grace for taking such good care of him. Would recommend her to anyone and would absolutely book with her again!
This is our first time having Alexandria watch our dogs. My older dog can't see or hear much anymore and I get a little over whelmed at the thought of someone else watching my dogs. She was fantastic I got photos and updates and my dogs looked very comfortable with her. I will absolutely use Alexandria again.

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in VA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
