About: Hi there! My name's Tyler, and it's a pleasure to (virtually) meet you. I'm 40, moved to Richmond from Miami to be closer to family in 2023, and work from home as a consultant. I grew up with dogs. My whole family also has dogs, so I like to think we can't help but love them. I'm naturally a nurturer and a caregiver. My mom was a teacher, and we often had the class guinea pig/gerbil/goldfish/snake/cat at the house as well. I'm comfortable with all animals. I volunteered at shelters while I was in school in North Carolina, and currently pet-sit for my busy and oft-traveling friends: the most recent rotation includes terriers, golden retrievers, labs, rottweilers, and pitbulls, but I've never met a dog I don't like or that doesn't warm up to me, no matter how shy. I have a 8 year old golden retriever border collie mix named Bowie who is in the process of becoming a certified Pet Partner/Delta Dog (he likes to volunteer, too!). He is super social and loves all creatures, furry and non-furry. He can be here if you board with me or stay with my boyfriend - whichever you prefer. I grew up a Navy brat and manage both people and businesses for a living- I am a firm believer in treating people, animals, and their homes with respect and dignity. Your house, your rules. I'm also totally open to plant-sitting, bringing in mail, puppy play-dates, the odd chore, etc. I also offer the option of ‘boarding in your home’ without staying there: lots of my regular clients like their pets to stay in their comfort zone at home, and I visit 4x a day for 30 minutes or more; this is usually morning, midday, afternoon/evening, and night, with walks/food/meds/cuddles/etc. Let me know if you’d prefer this service to boarding in my home or yours - I’m amenable to whatever you think is best for your pet. Thanks for taking the time to read about me- I hope to meet you and yours in the near future! - Tyler - grew up with dogs - rescued and fostered and helped place multiple dogs - volunteered at animal shelter in Chapel Hill, NC for years - had a 15 year old golden retriever named Tucker, who was a certified Delta Dog (can volunteer in hospitals, nursing homes, great with children, the elderly, and other pets) - Has a 6 year old rescue Border Collie mix named Bowie, who lives with me full time - Spends a lot of time with my ‘Nephew Dogs,’ Murphy & Carlyle, a 2yr old Sheepadoodle and a 7 year old Westie, respectively - loves loves loves animals In my home, they’re family: frequent walks; a dog park (legion park), if you’re so inclined; they’re welcome on furniture; I have multiple dog beds, toys, a crate, a balcony where they can watch birds, etc. In your home, however you specify. I respect and adhere to your rules for your pet family and for your home. It dictates my daily routine! I have a flexible schedule and pets come first - happy to work on your dog or cat’s normal schedule to keep things as aligned with normal as possible while you’re away. Pets in my home are welcome everywhere and have free access to water, toys, furniture, pet beds, blankets, etc. We go for lots of walks and I send lots of pictures!

“This was Luna’s first day with Julie. She was happy when I picked her up and seemed to enjoy herself. We have another day scheduled in a week.”



“Very accommodating and good communication!”


“Did fantastic with her and her family! Super amazing”


“Danielle and Matt were amazing - so responsive and helpful with our dog despite the last minute ask. They kept us updated about how he was doing throughout the day as well which is always appreciated!”


About: I love dogs and have had dogs all my life, from puppies to seniors, I have seen and cared for it all! My dog, Boogie, and I can’t wait to play with your lil guys and gals! Boogie will keep your dog playing and having fun. He does best with other medium to high energy dogs and puppies! But he knows how to chill with older and low energy dogs too. We have a fenced yard with plenty of space to run around and a quiet neighborhood to walk in. Plenty of space in the house to have some down time cuddling too! My partner and I take care of our dog, Boogie, daily. Playing in the yard, going on walks and hikes, and a few visits to the dog park a week is our usual! We have a lovely yard and one or both of us are home all day during the week. I prefer crate trained dogs, but wouldn’t pass on dogs who aren’t, we can make it work!

About: Hello! My name is Kyla and since I was 5 years old my family and I have always welcomed needing pets to our home and family. I’ve also been frequently trusted with caring for neighbors’ and family pets during their times away. With this background I’ve been given the hands on experiences to understand and provide the needs of pets who are away from their home environment and would ensure that my home and care is a welcoming and comforting temporary replacement to what you provide to them. Looking forward to being your trusted sitter! I currently work from home full-time and am much of a homebody outside of that, giving me plenty of time to care for and play with your furry friends and provide frequent updates on their stays away from you. I live in an apartment but am very close to nearby parks and walking areas and would be sure to frequently give your pets their much needed doses of fresh-air and outdoor playtime. When in a client’s home, I am sure to treat it as my own and maintain the routine that they’re accustomed to.

“Despite the late request, Ross answered very quickly and was able to arrange a brief meeting the same night for Murdoch and his dog to meet. The day after, we left Murdoch with Ross and Ava and everything went monthly with a few pictures of Murdoch's day. I recommend Ross and Ava !”


“Very accommodating for a last minute request! My pup came home tired and fell asleep immediately so he definitely enjoyed his time there! Love that’s there’s a fence for them to play in!”


“Talia and Yuno took great care of my little floof Auggie! Great communication and he had the best day! Highly recommend!!!”


About: Please ask to see my Trusted HouseSitter profile for additional reviews and information! I provide petcare in Charlottesville and Richmond and the surrounding areas, though I am also happy to travel to other states with advanced notice. I have a breadth of experience caring for my former pets and my home, as well as house and pet sitting for friends and for paid jobs. I grew up on a farm and cared for goats, horses, cows, dogs, cats, sheep, and poultry. I make an excellent house/petsitter due to my experience with and love for animals and my tidy and organized personality. I now work 100% remotely, so I'm taking this time of my life to explore the U.S. and house/petsitting seems like a fitting and more community-based way to do so! ** I charge $45 / night for 1-3 night house stays, but have a sliding scale for longer sits (negotiable at the time of request). I am open to traveling farther distances for 1+ week sits. I work remotely with an occasional need to go into the office, so it works best for me to care for pets in their home with a good internet connection. I have a fair bit of flexibility and can care for animals throughout my work day. I have the utmost care and respect for my clients pets and homes and treat them as if they were my own. I make sure to communicate expectations as best as possible to make sure we’re all on the same page.

“Michaela's great! I contacted her the night before I needed a sitter for my 5 month old puppy, and she got back to me very quickly that she was available. She worked with my schedule and was a huge help in a pinch. I checked in with her a couple times during my pup's stay and she replied with updates and pictures. Thanks, Michaela!”


About: I can administer medications, am great with senior dogs, high energy pups, special needs assistance and puppy training. Great with walks and play time as well! Absolutely love kitty / doggo snuggles too. I work from home so am very flexible with my schedule. I can overnight sit as well as house dogs in my home without needing to leave them unattended! They’ll always have someone to snuggle. I’m flexible with daytime / evening drop ins as well. I can care both in and out of my home. Whichever you prefer. We have a large fenced in yard and a lovely screened porch too!

“So so glad I found these two! Very communicative and great caregivers. Jupiter had a blast with the other pups which went a long way for his socialization, a huge plus! Of course he'll be seeing his two new best friends TC and Sage again 😸”


“Chris met us on time at the park and watched Ladybug while I went rock climbing at the RVA Man Wall. He was great with Ladybug and let her go wherever she wanted and snuggled her while we climbed. Great Rover experience with Chris, highly recommend!”

15. Charlotte R.
“Charlotte was an exceptional housesitter and caretaker for my pets, farm animals, and many plants. Her dedication and meticulous nature were immediately evident, but her willingness to go the extra mile was a delightful surprise. Her commitment to detail and responsibility extended beyond pet care, as we returned to our home that was cleaner than we left it. Charlotte’s genuine affinity for animals and her reliability were incredibly valuable and exactly what we needed in a sitter. The updates and pictures of our cats and pups we received were very much appreciated and helped to reassure me that my home and animals were in good hands. Returning to a carefully maintained home was a testament to her competence and dedication and it was clear she treated my home, plants, and animals with the same respect and consideration she would her own. I wholeheartedly recommend Charlotte and will gladly welcome her back next time we travel, as she is someone who will not only care for your property and animals but will do so with unwavering dedication and a genuine heart.”
