“Sara was great! We left our Nailah home for a night while we went on a trip and she took good care of her. She sent pictures as well as updates while we were gone and our Nailah really seemed to love her. Would highly recommend 10/10”

About: I grew up in a multi-cat household and now own 5 cats between my parents and myself! There's no kitty I can't handle - from super social, to shy, to very sassy, I'm known to be able to form a bond with every cat that comes into my care. I'm also a lover of all animals, I owned fish and lizards and have spent a lot of time helping walk and take care of my family's dogs. My animals are my life, and I've been on Rover for almost four years now! I also have a lot of experience working for Happy Cats Concierge LLC in Reston, VA, where I provided a range of services for cats of various quantities, ages, and personalities. Whether your furry friend needs a playmate, cuddle buddy, bodyguard, or just someone to stop by for food and medicine - I got you! My schedule is open and my day-to-day is flexible! Any specific dates I’m unavailable will be reflected on my calendar. Please message me with any other scheduling questions. Inside, outside, leash or no leash, crate, etc., I will honor the owner's wishes for where their furry friend needs to be spending their time. I value consistent routines and attentiveness while your pet is in my care. All of my services will be based in the client's home or neighborhood.

“Douglas was such a great pick to hang with our pups and care for our home while we were gone. Our pups like to keep things interesting and Douglas’s patience with them is not only appreciated, but is admired, especially when it came to caring for our senior dog. We would gladly welcome Douglas back to our home, and I know the pups would love that too.”

“One of a kind! Kendall is incredibly reliable and a wonderful communicator. We felt our animals were in good hands the entire week. Last minute our cat got an infection and she didn’t bat an eye to administering his medication daily. Our cats were both relaxed and happy when we got home, plus the dishes were done and the house was tidy!”

“This was the first time V dogsat for us and it was a wonderful experience! V was easy to communicate with, took excellent care of our pup, and even went above and beyond on caring for our home. Highly recommend!!”

“Suzzie was wonderful! She took excellent care of our dogs while we were at the beach for a week. Suzzie sent daily updates and let us know how both dogs were doing. She also let us know when one of our dogs started having allergies- I really appreciate this level of communication. I highly recommend booking with Suzzie!”

“Celeste was great with our menagerie of somewhat quirky animals. We were out of cell service for the majority of our booking, but I appreciated coming back to pictures and happy animals. They were respectful if the space. Would definitely recommend and book again!”

“Ezra is wonderful. He took care of our dog Rev very well, and kept us updated while we were away. We came back to a clean house and a happy dog. We love that he took Rev for a hike and also to meet some people for socializing. I would definitely think of him again when we have other trips out of town.”

“Kira was amazing with our beagles. Kept in touch, took care of everything, and treated them like her own. We were so pleased with how well she cared for Luna and Neko and look forward to booking with her again. Excellent sitter and Luna and Neko’s new best friend!”

About: I prefer to go by Cameron (he/him). Since I can remember I have been caring for dogs and cats of various breeds, ages, and abilities. When I was in middle school my mom became involved in The Southern Cross Boston Terrier Rescue and we brought home many dogs to foster and officially adopt. Throughout my childhood I cared for blind dogs, deaf dogs, and dogs that struggle with seizure disorders. Now that I'm all moved out I have a long haired four year old cat named Fester. I'm helping my roommate raise her kitten and coparenting Benny my partner's Boston Terrier from the SCBTR. I'm currently returning to the workforce after recovering from top surgery so my schedule is very open. While I don't have a car at the moment I do have a bike plus I live in a convenient place to catch the bus. I don't currently have any fall trips planned so I should be here in Richmond area for quite a while. I don't take pets home with me to care for them. I am more than happy to come to you or take your pets to park based on what you would prefer. I am happy to feed, play with, and walk your pet as well as administer any extra care they may need.

“Maggie did a great job watching our dog Audubon for the weekend. In addition to being very sweet and playing with Aud, she was proactively, timely, and followed Aud’s schedule to a tee. We got lots of updates and photos from Maggie and she left our house just as she found it! Would absolutely book again.”

About: I have personal experience taking care of (walking, bathing, feeding, enrichment, training) all animals and love to do it. Professionally, I’ve worked at doggy daycares, other dog-walking and pet-sitting apps, and volunteered to assist with puppy births. My experience is mostly with dogs; however, I have taken care of cats and more! I work a full-time job, but my hours are flexible which means I have days I am in-office or at home and I do not work weekends. It is very easy for me to leave work to provide pet care and return later that day or make-up hours later in the week. I am very gentle with animals and the safety of pets and those around them comes first - always. I plan to keep the pet comfortable and enriched. It is very easy to follow a schedule and routine for medications, bathroom breaks, bedtimes, and playtime. I pay close attention to details and take the time to learn pet behaviors to ensure they get the best care.

“Mitch was great! He took good care of my dog while I was out of town and was easy to communicate with. He shared updates while I was gone and I would definitely recommend him and use his services again in the future!”

Devan C.

“Daniel was awesome! Very kind and kept us up to date on how things were going at home the whole time we were away! I would absolutely recommend him and would book him again in a heartbeat to take care of our pup!”

Dudley M.

“Alex was amazing - very professional! He was very attentive to our wishes and instructions, excellent communicator, punctual and all the things you would expect from hiring a pro. The house was left clean and he genuinely seems to care for our pets and enjoy their company. Got photos every day and followed our complicated medication schedule. The dogs seemed happy and healthy when we returned! We HIGHLY recommend!”

Sam K.

“Jonathan was great! He was attentive and thorough, and we came home to a happy and healthy dog. I wouldn't hesitate to book him again.”

About: I am a young professional with two orange cats of my own! I've been watching animals for my family, friends, and neighbors since I was a kid; I love cats and dogs of all colors, breeds, shapes, and sizes. I'm currently between jobs, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups or satisfy your unique care needs! I'm lucky to have a flexible schedule, so I strive to accommodate others' schedules to the best of my ability. Safety is paramount for me. As a pet-owner myself, I strive to meet the needs of each pet without putting them at risk of harm or distress.

“Olivia watched my cat and apartment for a week and is reliable and communicative. Gave my cat a good week. Fully recommend!”

Zachary V.

“Andrew was amazing! He took such great care of our three cats and our dog while we were away. He walked our dog twice a day and spent a lot of time playing with her and keeping her company. We also came home to a super clean house, exactly how we left it. We’d definitely use Andrew again and highly recommend him!”

Susie S.

“Jenna is amazing! She took such great care of our 3 dogs and even taught them new tricks! She is extremely communicative and sent us photos and videos often. She left our house spotless and even watered my plants for me. She is now our go to person!”
