House Sitting in McGuire Veterans Hospital, Richmond, VA

“Averi was great with my fur-babies. I have two senior goldens and a cat who is very cautious. I am always nervous about leaving them with a new person, but she was wonderful. She communicated well before and throughout the stay. I came back from a week, with happy healthy animals, and a tidy home. I would definitely recommend her.”

“Hollie was great with our dog Cosita while we were away. Cosita is very timid but Hollie gave her space until she was comfortable. We came back to a super clean house and happy dog. Would totally recommend!”

“Oli was great. She sent pics and updates daily, which we really appreciate. She stayed at our house the entire time we were gone. We have a very old dog and a neurotic dog and 4 cats. She provided love and care to our pets and home. I highly recommend.”

“Victor did great sitting for Ellie, kept her company all day, listened to her needs, gave her food and her medicine. Would absolutely book him again in the future!”

“I recently hired Kyle as a house and dogsitter, and I couldn't be more impressed with his service. From the moment he stepped into my home, I felt at ease knowing my house and beloved pets were in capable hands. Not only did he maintain the cleanliness and security of my home, but he also went above and beyond in caring for my furry companions. He followed all instructions meticulously, ensuring my pets' routines were maintained and that they received plenty of love and attention. Kyle demonstrated exceptional responsibility and reliability throughout his stay, and I returned to find my house in impeccable condition and my pets happy and healthy. I highly recommend Kyle for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring house and dogsitter. His professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set him apart.”

“Kathryn was fantastic with our dog. She checked in regularly, sent pictures and updates and was very friendly and respectful. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again!”

“Rachel was fantastic with our pets!! She sent numerous pics and was always extremely communicative of her schedule. We’ll definitely be using her again!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Melanie! She took such amazing care of my Frenchie while I was away. From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely loves dogs and knew exactly how to handle my pup’s quirky personality and needs. I received regular updates, photos, and videos, which totally put my mind at ease. My Frenchie came back happy, relaxed, and maybe even a little spoiled—in the best way! I’m so grateful for the love and attention they gave. I’ll absolutely be booking with them again!”

“After a few negative experiences with other sitters on Rover were so relieved to have found Kathleen. She was amazing with our pup, a great communicator and we returned home to a clean house and happy dog. We’ll certainly request to use her again!”

“Giselle took great care of both of our pets while we were away on vacation. She sent us updates along the way and gave us peace of mind while out of town. We returned last night to two happy and healthy pets!”

“Lynne was a great house sitter and did an excellent job taking care of our fur baby. She shared photos every day and even left a sweet message to welcome us home. It was comforting knowing our geriatric lab had company, especially in the evening, while we were out of town. I would highly recommend Lynne and look forward to rebooking with her in the future!”

“David saved a family weekend getaway when issues with a previous booking caused us to cancel them, but David answered our call at the last minute and saved the day. David was kind and polite and very easy going. Our dogs and cats seemed well taken care of and we enjoyed our weekend away knowing they were in good hands. No issues with David at all, would certainly book again.”

“Seline took great care of our two dogs!”

“Alex was great with the dogs and was responsive to our messages. Was very impressed that he came over for a meet and greet and was taking notes and asking questions. Left the home so clean we couldn't even tell someone had been there. Highly recommend”

“Jess house sat with our dogs for a long weekend. The communication was excellent and she sent lots of photos. Our dogs are seniors and one has special medication. Jess had no problem with that and was great with them. We will definitely book her again.”

“Took great care of my babies ❤️ Savannah is communicative and a lover of all animals. I was more than comfortable with my best friends in her care.”

“Allyson was attentive to our family's needs and communicative while we were away. Our dogs were relaxed and happy with her. It was a pleasure having her house sit for us.”

About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember! I grew up with a mom who worked in the Richmond Animal Shelter & a house full of adopted animals. From my sisters spoiled Pibble baby to my neighbors sweet little Yorkie, I’ve been their go to sitter/walker to watch their babies because they know I’ll love on them like my own fur babies 💕 I love to do Meet & Greets prior to your baby’s walk/drop-in if feasible. Coko & I are available Saturdays & Sundays for Meet & Greets! I am a mom of 3 & we have a Shih-poo named Coko. My babies have all grown up around family dogs and understand to be gentle with fur babies. Our neighborhood is very dog friendly so I’m sure we’ll meet a friend or two on ours walks.

“Piper is the best!! Piper stepped in at the last minute when we had an issue with our previous sitter. She gave the pups plenty of love and exercise, and FaceTimed so I could go through their routine and virtually walk her through the house virtually. We truly cannot thank her enough!! To boot, she left the house in immaculate shape. Thank you, Piper ❤️”

“Lindsay was a life saver taking care of my Bambino on such short notice. She was super responsive with check ins and our dog loved her!”
