House Sitting in Midlothian, Richmond, VA

“Oli was wonderful! We have a reactive dog who is nervous meeting new people but she warmed up to Oli quickly. Oli checked in often with photos of the pups and left everything in good order.”

“Emily was great! This was my first experience with Rover and I couldn’t have picked a better person. She was great with my puppy Lola and kept me updated during my whole work trip. She was trustworthy and really just made the whole experience so easy. My Lola was so happy when I got home and looked very well taken care of. Thank you Emily!”

About: I have 3 cats and 2 mice, so I have a lot of experience taking care of cats and small animals. I love dogs and have pet-sat for my friends with small and medium size dogs I work a full time job Monday - Friday. I am available to do drop-ins before 7:30am or after 4:30 pm on weekdays. I am always available in the evenings or weekends. I will follow whatever guidelines the owner's give. Otherwise, my base care is to give dogs 2 walks a day and at least 30 minutes of playtime for both dogs and cats. Ensure the pets are fed and gone potty/clean litterboxes.

“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.”

“Kyle took great care of my pup over the weekend. He made sure my dog’s normal routine was followed and spent lots of time giving him attention. Would recommend and will be booking again in the future.”

“Elizabeth is so kind and very accommodating for my pup! She did a fantastic job caring for her and followed all my instructions. Highly recommend!”

Marie A.

“Kaleigh is amazing! This was the first time leaving my pup and Kaleigh made me feel at ease with consistent communication and updates. She took the time to learn my dog’s personality and routine so she could be as comfortable as possible. I’d definitely recommend Kaleigh!”

Emily M.

“Paula took such good care of our little Chloe. She stayed at our house and sent pictures and videos each day so we were reminded of the great care Chloe was receiving. Paula was great at communicating with us and didn't hesitate to ask questions to ensure Chloe had the best care. Thanks, Paula.”

“Megan was great with our dogs! We had to go away for a few days with short notice, and she was awesome enough to come house sit our 2 pets. They were pretty much instantly in love with her. She provided daily updates and we felt secure knowing our dogs were well cared for! Thanks Megan!”

Olivia W.

“Rachel was amazing! She helped with our dogs while we were gone for the weekend, and both dogs (and our cat) loved her and were so excited to see her. She stayed in communication with us the entire weekend and sent great pictures with updates. She followed all the instructions we left. Both dogs have terrible separation anxiety, but they didn’t seem to miss a beat while we were gone. Would definitely recommend!”

“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”

Jimmy A.

“I can’t recommend Caitlin enough. She house-sat and cared for my dog, Dusty, while I was away, and everything was flawless from start to finish. She’s incredibly professional, sent regular photo and video updates (which gave me so much peace of mind), and I came home to a happy pup and a spotless home. Not only is she amazing with animals, but I’ve also worked with her before—so I already knew she was reliable, detail-oriented, and just a genuinely good human. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets and your home with the utmost responsibility, Caitlin is it.”

Derek F.

“Seline took great care of our two dogs!”

Caton S.

“This was our first time using Rover. After reading reviews on some dog sitters that do overnight stays. We had to go out of town for a few days and we did not want to board our elderly Great Dane.”

Richard Z.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Alyssia! She stayed overnight in our home for a week while we were on vacation in the OBX and took fantastic care of our three cats. She sent daily updates with funny photos and videos that gave us total peace of mind (and some good laughs). Alyssia also took excellent care of our home—bringing in the mail and packages, taking out the trash, and cleaning up after herself. Everything was spotless when we returned. Most importantly, our cats were calm, happy, and well-fed. In the past, they’ve seemed stressed or even lost weight while we were away, but not this time. They warmed up to her quickly! We’ve already rebooked her and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter. Thank you, Alyssia!”

“Haley was absolutely amazing. She kept me updated on my babies the entire time she was there with pics and messages. She took care of my home as though it was hers. I would absolutely recommend Haley to anyone who wants peace of mind when leaving your babies when having to travel. Thank you Haley!!”

“Joy was amazing!! She stayed with our dog for 7 days. Our dog can be a lot to handle and she did it perfectly. I received an update and cute photo each day. She was very tidy, organized, and most of all- trustworthy! The list of compliments to give her is endless. Forrest is a very active dog with some anxiety. He usually doesn’t do well on a leash, but Joy was able to walk him with some slack on the leash. That’s a huge milestone for our dog. I know he loved every minute of it. While Forrest was very excited to see me, he kept checking to see if Joy was coming back. He definitely misses her. Joy will always be the first person I reach out to when we need someone to take care of Forrest!”
