About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats since I was a kid. I have alot of experience with pet sitting within my neighborhood and family friends. I am a full time elementary education major at VCU, I am looking for a part time opportunity to make extra money. I am free in the mornings from 6-8am, 12:30-3pm, and 7pm to 9pm on Mondays and Tuesdays. Then for Wednesdays and Thursdays I am from from 6am-7am and from 3pm to 9pm as I am in the public schools. I am willing to open my availability on Fridays as well. I am willing and ready to step in wherever you need me. I have a lot of experience with dogs specifically but I am also pretty familiar with cats.

Alex took great care of our two dogs! He sent daily updates and photos. Our dogs really enjoyed their time with him. He left the house clean and tidied up. Very happy with the care our dogs got while we were gone, especially our senior!

Wesley was wonderful! Super responsive, communicative, and confident with our fur crew from the start. Our dogs can be pretty high energy, but Wesley handled them with patience and clear commands. We’ll definitely be booking with Wesley again!

Liz was great! She communicated clearly and wasn’t afraid to ask questions regarding our house and pets (which I found to be very respectful). We came home from a long trip to happy pets and a clean home which is more than one can hope for. I highly recommend Liz for anyone who wants to fully enjoy their vacations knowing that everything they love is taken care of.

Emily is terrific. She did such a great job watching our pup. Our dog experiences pretty bad separation anxiety and typically doesn’t eat all his meals when we are away - but with Emily he did! She was absolutely wonderful and we will most definitely be reaching out to her again!! She sent us pictures daily, kept the house tidy and was simply great to have. Thanks again Emily for the great experience!

Liesel is a true dog person, which is so important to me when leaving my rambunctious kiddos in someone's care. She snuggled them, appreciated and met their individual needs and personalities, and sent great pictures. I am confident that they were not only cared for physically, but were also loved on. They got walks every day, they house was super clean when we got home, and Liesel is super communicative. Her questions really indicate someone who understands and appreciate dogs. We will happily have Liesel sit for us again!

Hannah was a wonderful sitter! She was extremely attentive to our more nervous dog during a storm even going the extra mile to put music on to put her right to sleep. Hannah went above and beyond to care for our girls. We will use her again for sure.

Farrah was amazing. I am very nervous about leaving my three recuse dogs when I go out of town, as they are all very particular ! We had a lot of requests and Farrah went above and beyond. Our newest rescue who is scared of everything and everyone warmed up to her quickly which amazed me! I could tell my dogs loved her. She sent me tons of photos knowing how much I missed them. Would highly recommend and will definitely be using her again !

Lupe is great! From the initial meet-and-greet visit through her nine nights with our elderly dog, she was professional, attentive, and great with communication. She provided regular updates and even coordinated directly with our neighbors who were helping at various times. We chose to book with her based on all of her great Rover reviews, and they are definitely accurate. We would love to have her again!

Monique stayed with our two dogs while we were overseas for 11 days. She was so flexible and met with my more nervous dog two times before we left. She communicated the whole time and our dogs were very happy to be in their own home with Monique rather than a boarding facility. I highly recommend her and we will be using her for many more trips this upcoming year.

Hannah took great care of both my home and my cats while I was away. Both my cats have quirky personalities but she worked with them to make sure they kept comfortable while I was away and made sure to send me pictures and videos of how they were doing. She also left my home clean and tidy for when I came back.

Zoe was super kind and considerate when I needed a last minute pet sitter for my rescue dog who has never been away from us before. She was very professional and understanding that he needed some extra time to adjust, she was very patient with him and followed his routine perfectly! I highly recommend Zoe :)

When we had a hiccup with normal pet care plans, Liz swooped in on short notice and took fantastic care of our energetic little munchkin Billie. She can be a lot to handle and Liz did a great job - we really appreciated the thorough and frequent updates and her eagerness to ask when questions came up! The house was tidy when we got back :) Billie was clearly in great hands and we’d love to have Liz back to care for Billie in the future!
