House Sitting Locust Grove

“Rachael was absolutely incredible. She was so patient and kind to my hyperactive pup! She gave me updates and pictures every night which put me at complete ease. She was so kind as to clean the sheets and towels before she left! I would highly recommend and will use her again to watch my dog when I’m out of town!”

About: I grew up on a farm, I am familiar with caring for anything from a lizard to a horse. I have been a trusted pet sitter and walker for a few families for years. I have volunteered at vet clinics since I was in high school and am versed in dog CPR and have a background in dog training. I truly love all animals they have my heart and utmost care always. Any animal in my care will be left in luxury. As a pet owner myself I understand the need to know your loved one is left in good hands. I am flexible, so please feel free to reach out with any questions! I am a personal trainer in the Charlottesville area and have a flexible schedule. This is perfect for allowing me to take breaks even throughout a normal work day to take ample care of your fur babies. It is your fur baby so I will follow whatever routine you guys have set for your household. My goal is to make them feel like they are on vacation too!

“Kailyn was so professional and communicative. She takes her job seriously and it shows. My babies were healthy and happy when I returned from my trip, and that’s everything! I came home to my house in order, and a darling personal note from her with little photos of my dogs attached. Best experience I’ve had with a Rover sitter. Peace of mind is something you can’t put a price on!”

“Kristen is the sweetest! Our pups had a lovely time with her, and we're so thankful for her help! Cannot recommend her services more. We have 2 dogs who are relatively high-energy, and she cared for them very well.”

“We have used Kris several times for both overnight stays and dog walks. She is as reliable as they come, and we know our pup and home are always in great hands when we’re away. Highly recommend!”

Cooper A.

“Tracy was an incredible house sitter! She took great care of our pup, left our home excellent condition, and was regularly in contact with us throughout our time away. I can't recommend her enough and we are certain to contact her again when we need someone to look after our dog.”

Jamelle B.

“Definitely all 5 stars for Lissette! She stayed in our home with our two dogs for a few days, and we could not have been happier. Lissette is a delight. Conscientious, enthusiastic, and showed lots of love to our pets. She went above and beyond with lots of walks in the neighborhood, lots of playtime in the backyard, and caring for our home. Great communication, too. A real superstar!”

“The doggies loved her! She did a great job.”

About: I've been around pets my entire life and have always grown up in a home with multiple dogs and cats alike. Whenever I'm home, I'm the primary caregiver, helping with feeding, walks, exercise, playtime, grooming, and making sure they're happy and comfortable. I've also cared for friends' dogs and cats through drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays while they were away. As a college athlete, I know how important consistency and responsibility are, and I'll care for your dog with the same attention and love I give my own. I'm currently a full-time student completing my coursework online while training as a collegiate swimmer and track athlete. My practice schedule varies throughout the year, but outside of practice I have a flexible schedule and can provide dependable care. I always communicate my availability clearly and only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to. When I'm with your pet, they'll receive my full attention and plenty of exercise, affection, and care. At this time I provide care in my clients' homes, where pets are most comfortable and can stay in their normal routines. I understand how important consistency is for animals, so I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, and any house rules you provide. I treat every home with respect, send regular updates and photos, and always make your pet's safety and well-being my top priority.

About: Make sure you have a sitter that loves your pet as much as you do! I am a devoted animal lover and I have 8 years of pet sitting experience (not including my own dogs/cats/guinea pigs/ect!). I have experience with a wide age range of dogs (and other furry friends!) including puppies to senior dogs, and have done pet sitting gigs ranging from a weekend, a week, or even a month if needed! I know how important it is to leave your furry baby with someone who will treat them as well as you do. My job is to do just that! I currently work remote with very flexible work day hours. I am a graduate student at UVA with very flexible summer hours. I am happy to spend the day with your pet, a few check ins, a good walk, or whatever else you and your pet may need! I respect you and your pets space! Its very important to me to do what makes you both happy and most comfortable during my time with you. Please do not hesitate to ask for anything or share any information or instructions which would help you feel at ease

“We were a little nervous about leaving our pup with anyone, but Mackenzie was great. She sent us pictures every day and checked in about any questions that came up. Her questions showed her experience with dogs, and really put us at ease. Our pup took to her, and seemed to enjoy having her around. We will certainly use her again.”

Megan J.

“Tessa was amazing! Came to our house for a meet and greet before we left on our trip, checked in regularly with texts/pictures and left the house probably cleaner than it was when we left. We will definitely ask her to sit again in the future!!!”
