Kristen was wonderful! She took great care of our kitty while we were out of the country for about 2 weeks. We will definitely connect with her for any future needs as well.

I continue to book Jeffrey to cat sit because he is so thorough, communicates incredibly well, and goes above and beyond when it comes to caring for my cat! As always, I highly recommend booking Jeffrey for your pet sitting needs :)

Kallie was a great sitter. She was able to connect quickly with me when I had to go out of town last minute. Ragnar was well taken care of. Would recommend her to folks looking for a pet sitter and would use her again.

About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have cared for my own golden retriever, Sunny, since he was a puppy. Sunny is now 5 years old, well-behaved, and friendly with other pets. My experience includes daily walks, playtime, and creating a safe, loving environment for dogs of all temperaments. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will get plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. I walk Sunny twice daily—morning and evening—and love spending time outdoors. My schedule is flexible, so I can accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays. I live in a one-level ranch-style home with a fully fenced-in backyard, perfect for safe outdoor play. My home is quiet, clean, and pet-friendly. Sunny is gentle and social, making him a great companion for visiting pets. I treat every dog like family and prioritize their comfort and safety.

Teresa was excellent with my large, often anxious, cat Sherlock. Upon my return I found a happy Sherlock with none of the usual stress symptoms. Teresa also communicated frequently and sent photos of all the snuggles and other antics Sherlock got up to each day. It was great to see my cat happy while I was away!

Kay stepped up when my usual cat sitter cancelled before the Christmas break and really put all of my worries at ease. She is a phenomenally attuned cat sitter and so communicative for any needs she had. Thank you, Kay! Couldn’t have enjoyed my vacation away without you!

About: I have my own two, special needs creatures. I have over a year of experience with injection medication and several years with mobility issues. You can trust me to take care of your babies. I am available for weekend drop in visits and holidays. I do work M-F, 9-5. I am here for your evenings that you can’t get home during the week and weekends. I will be very respectful of your home. Having two of my own I am unable to bring your pets into my home but keeping them in their own safe space and respecting boundaries is very important.

This was our first Rover experience and Virginia was a perfectly wonderful pet sitter for our cat, Fergus. She came by to meet him ahead of time, sent lots of photos and videos while we were away and, above all, made us feel very comfortable leaving him in her pet-loving hands. We would recommend Virginia highly and hope to find the opportunity to have her help again soon!

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 20 years — not just as a sitter, but as a lifelong animal person. I live with two cats and two dogs (aka my little chaos crew), and I’ve been through it all: administering meds, soothing anxious pups, helping senior pets feel safe and loved, and even caring for a dog with epilepsy. I know how to read their body language, honor their boundaries, and make every visit feel like a familiar, comforting ritual. I also rescue animals when I see them in need — whether that’s coaxing a stray into safety, getting them vet care, or helping them find their forever home. I don’t just like animals — I see them, respect them, and care deeply about their safety, happiness, and autonomy. When your pet is with me, they’re not just getting fed and walked. They’re getting a friend, an advocate, and someone who truly gets them. I work from home and have a lot of flexibility. I would prefer long standing customers with at least one weekly walk to stay on my schedule. I do have a fenced in yard we could use for play. Though I would prefer to take dogs for walks in their neighborhoods or at the river. I am happy to play fetch, tug, go on long hikes, or take short strolls. Each animal must have their collar on with their owner's information.

Aparna took care our cat for two weeks. She always comes on time. When we came back, our cat is very happy, clean and healthy. I highly recommend Aparna for caring your pet. We will hire her again for our next travel plan.

About: I’ve been around animals nearly all my life. I have had a shih tzu poodle mix for about 10 years at my family’s house and currently have 3 cats here in Richmond. I am happy to care for animals of all ages, and will honor any requests or instructions that you have for your pets care. I am currently studying for admission to the Virginia Bar, and have a lot of free time in between the course I am taking. Due to this flexibility, I can accommodate almost any request for your pet, whether it be checking on them frequently or staying the entire day with them. I am more than happy to take care of any special requests for your dog or cat in your home. I have worked with diabetic pets, elderly pets, and pets who require medication in pill or liquid form.
