House Sitting Locust Grove

“Allison was wonderful with our pups. She stayed at our home when we went away for a few nights. She provided daily updates with pictures and always responded in a timely manner if I reached out. Our return flight was canceled and we couldn’t get home until the next day, Allison had availability and was willing to stay an extra night. She helped ease a stressful situation knowing our pups were in good hands. We will definitely reach out to Allison for future pup sittings. Thank you Allison!”

“Monique’s and her husband Daniel do an amazing job taking care of our Vizsla Skye! We have hired them many times and feel so comfortable leaving Skye in their care. Skye recently tore her ACL and we knew that she was in great hands. From the moment that we met Monique and Daniel we knew we found a great team.”

About: I’ve raised four German shepherds since they were nine weeks old and I will love and take care of your babies as I did mine! I’m currently working a full time job from Mon-Thurs from 7:30AM to 5:00PM. I have a routine of waking up before 4AM so I have plenty of time in the mornings, I am able to leave work between 11:30AM-1:00PM if I need to check on any pups at home or for potty breaks. I am off during the weekends, I don’t do much on my time off just read, clean and I try to exercise in my apartment. I live in an apartment and I will love to take walks and take your fur babies out when needed and for play time as well. I don’t have any pets at home. I will follow any instructions that you give me to sit your fur babies in my own home or yours.

“We needed a pet sitter last minute due to our other option not working out. I found Aubrey and she was absolutely amazing! Our pups had a great time with her. She was respectful of our house and requirements and I can’t say more than great things about her. She even brought them treats and a toy! Thank you again and look forward to booking with you in the future.”

“Oli always does a wonderful job taking care of our girls. She is communicative, thorough with care instructions, and thoughtful of our little family throughout her stay. We appreciate how she gets to know each of our dog’s personalities and individual needs. She’s a great sitter and we’d highly recommend Oli for overnight pet care!”

About: I've owned a dog for some years. I watched other people's dogs from puppies to older dogs. I plan on treating your animals with care. I'm currently working a full-time job. But I most certainly have time in the evening and the weekend to dedicate to the care and well-being of your pet. I'd provide meals, restroom breaks, walks and playtime throwing of the ball, games, play dates or care for pet. Companionship while the owner is away.

About: I have over a decade of professional pet care experience as well as a lifetime of personal pet care experience. I prefer to work with the elderly or medically complex pets as I know they need special attention, adherence to routines, and a calm environment. I focus on providing fun daycare and boarding for pets that don’t do well in regular boarding facilities and require a more home-like experience. Prices are negotiable after a meet and greet. Please fill out your profile in full before meeting! Incomplete/no profile image profiles will not be given my address. I work from home so I spend a majority of my day with my pets and guest pets. Dogs are given mostly free range inside and allowed outside into the huge fenced yard many times a day. They get playtime with other pets and alone time when needed. Our yard is fenced and our house is doggy proofed to avoid trash cans, toilets, and non-chewable items from being accessed. Dogs are crated when they can’t be supervised.

“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!”

“Janet was excellent with our dog. We are thrilled to have found her on Rover because we are always nervous to leave our dog with people. She has decades of experience working with animals and knows every aspect of thier care. She can give meds, she can identify symptoms of health problems before they become an emergency, she understands canine behavior, she can even train dogs using positive reinforcement. My dog absolutely loves her, and we received lots of cute pics during our trip! It was a comfort to know he was in such good hands. We will definitely be hiring Janet again in the future.”

“Stephenie stayed with our dogs at our house over the weekend, and she was phenomenal! We received lots of updates and happy pictures of the dogs while we were gone that helped put us at ease knowing the dogs were being well taken care of. Stephanie also maintained their routine and gave them their daily medicines. We are so happy to have met Stephenie and will be booking with her again!”

About: I've had dogs and cats all my life. From pound puppies to pure bred, from puppy to 17+ years old and everything in between. Currently I have 2 Great Danes, a 1 year old female named Willow and a 2 year old male named Otis, and my oldest pound puppy a 17 year old girl named Spazzy. There are also 3 cats in the house. I've had multiple dogs trained and I'm currently working towards a dog training degree myself. I am able to administrator medication and do minor grooming. I have been around animals my entire life and nothing makes me happier than an animal. I am currently a stay at home mom. I have a 14 year old daughter who also adores all animals. I like taking my pups for walks whenever weather permits and when it's icky out we stay inside and play or snuggle up on the couch. Regardless of whatever fun activity we do we do it together and I'm available 24/7 to ensure your pet gets the same level of love, affection, and care as my own. I do not have a fenced yard and although I am located out in the country with a large area to run people do speed past the house so leashes will be used unless otherwise requested. My dogs are fed on a twice daily schedule and I can maintain that or feed on whatever schedule you currently work on with your pet. I am also able to administrator medication to your pet and provide minor grooming if need be. Whatever you and your pets need I'll do my absolute best to provide in a safe and loving environment.

About: I would love to come take care of your pet. I have always loved animals and training them has always been second nature to me. All my life I have been raising puppies along with all types of other creatures. I value their life as you would your own and I treat all owners and their belongings including furry children with utmost respect. I have fostered puppies from SFC(Spotsylvania) and BRAG here in Richmond. I am an army veteran who's current pet is a pitsky. She knows commands I have taught her myself. Sit, stay, down, drop, speak, handshake, ect. :-) I also know how to do dog CPR even though I am not certified I had a lab/mastiff mix who had a heart condition. I hope to work with you in the future. I currently am not working so I am flexible atm. However that may change by then end of June. I am always open to discussing plans with you.. I have a fenced in yard and at my clients home, if they do not have a fenced in yard, I make sure to never allow a pet to escape. I couldn't imagine the terror if it happened to mine so I will never let that happen to yours.

About: I love all animals! I believe animals can sense energy, and animals always respond well to my presence because I am patient. I grew up on a farm so horses, dogs, cats, birds. My pets live like kings 😂 I work remotely so my schedule is flexible. Over night stays are fine. I work remotely and have hot spot so my schedule is flexible. I am available 7AM-3PM (depending on area). Fridays/Saturdays available all day. I would prefer pet sitting at the pet’s home to ensure they feel comfortable, low stress. Evenings I can stay extended amounts of times as long as y’all don’t mind me working remotely on my hot spot at the home. Outside/feeding schedules will be no problem because my work is flexible.

“Shanna was an excellent caregiver for dog, Tessa, while we were out of town. She was attentive to our girl’s additional needs, administering medications and care for Tessa’s health issues. Shanna kept us updated throughout the week and was responsive to any questions we had. We highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for 35 years. I am able to administer medications including injectable’s if needed. I work with all breeds and temperaments, and do not shy away from pets that have behavioral issues. I’ve worked extensively with large farm animals to include horses, goats, donkeys, and cattle and have cared for the occasional parrot, chinchilla, and snake. Since pet sitting is my only employment, I am able to provide companionship to your fur family 14-18 hours daily including overnight care. I also am able to check mail, grab packages, and water plants at no additional charge. I keep to your pets normal daily routine, to include walks, potty breaks, feeding schedule, and of course nap times. Let’s set up a meet and greet to see if I’m a good fit. Currently I am only doing pet sitting and it’s my primary and only employment. This enables me to spend more time with your fur babies. I care for pets in your home as requested. I stick to their normal daily schedule. I also water plants and grab mail as needed.

“Best sitter I’ve ever had”

Oliviya G.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from young puppies to large breeds, and I’m confident handling a wide range of needs and personalities. I’m comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to make sure every pet stays healthy and safe. I also have experience with basic puppy training, helping reinforce good habits and routines. What sets me apart is my patience and understanding, especially with dogs who have separation anxiety or need extra reassurance. I take the time to make pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like my own, paying close attention to their behavior, energy level, and individual needs so they get the best care possible. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make it a priority to give each pet the time, attention, and consistency they need. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate morning, midday, evening, and even last-minute bookings when needed. Whether it's walks, drop-ins, or extended stays, I'm able to adjust my routine to match your pet's schedule and keep things as normal and stress-free as possible for them. I'm reliable, responsive, and committed to being there when you and vour pet need me. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I have a spacious three-floor condo that gives dogs plenty of room to move around and feel comfortable. I also have a friendly six-year-old dog who gets along well with other animals, helping visiting pets feel more at ease. My two daughters are gentle and respectful with animals, adding to the loving environment your pet will be in. I live in a great area for walks, so your dog will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention throughout the day. I make sure to follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping things consistent and stress-free by maintaining their normal routine and environment. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
