“Agelica took care of Queso and she was awesome, super responsive, she kept me informed of his behavior in a detailed way. She has access to a very nice backyard which is fenced and safe for dogs. I am very happy with my experience with her.”
“I’m so happy Vanessa decided to sit with my girls. She loved on them as I would and that’s all I could ever ask for. The communication was awesome and I appreciated all the effort she put into making my mind at ease being away from my fur babies. Thank you so much, Vanessa. I’ll need to bring them to see you in between sittings.”
“First time having my dog watched by Zach he did everything I asked of him and more and on top of that was extremely friendly and kind! My dog had an accident or two didn't, cause a issue about it while I was for business I would definitely recommend leaving your dog with him”
“Was such a great host of my cat pumpkin. Sent timely updates and made sure to get the cutest pictures of her back to me during her stay! Definitely hope to book her again in the future.”
“Super appreciate Alexandra! She took great care of our cat while we were away. Would 100% trust my animals with her again. Could tell how loved my cat was during the time we were gone! Received lots of updates.”
“Had a great experience working with Deven and Tyreek! They took great care of our dog and provided excellent daily updates. He looked very happy in all his pics!”
“Christian was absolutely fantastic! He was very easy to work with. He took great care of dog family member... Christian communicates well and is very responsive. We're happy to book with him any time! Highly recommend!”
“Susan was so welcoming and I felt very comfortable leaving my Goldendoodle son with her! She has a wonderful, large back yard that my dog enjoyed! She sent me photos everyday and let me know how he was doing. I am 100% booking Susan for my dog the next time I am out of town!”
“Tiffany is amazing! This was the first time I boarded my Simba. I was so nervous. However, Simba was very well taken care of. Tiffany kept me updated with texts and pictures. She was professional and caring toward not only Simba but me as well. Simba truly enjoyed his stay. I don’t think he wanted to come home! I will definitely use Tiffany’s services again. If you want a reliable, patient, caring, and professional person to care for your pet, Tiffany is your person!!!”
“Teresa was the best rover host we’ve had. My Australian cattle dog did not want to leave! Teresa was so kind and clearly enjoyed caring for Allie. I received frequent text and photo updates throughout the weekend of Allie having a great time. Teresa was easy to communicate with and we will definitely reach out again in the future!”
“Ethel and Clay were awesome sitters for my dogs, Diesel and Murphy! Diesel is a senior now, so I am very particular about who watches him. Murphy is still a puppy so he is high energy. Ethel was able to meet both of their needs - she was very detail oriented about Diesel’s medications and limitations in walking, but she was also to accommodate for my much younger dog’s need for mental stimulation and exercise. I felt extremely comfortable with my dogs being there for a full week. 11/10 would use her again in a heart beat!”
“Becky was nice and she sent me pics and updated me the entire time. They were active with my baby and she was worn out when she got home which was a plus...lol. I would def use her again!”
“Niko had a great time with Aileen and her family! Her kids were the perfect playmates for Niko. They played fetch, tug of war, and they even covered him with blankets to keep him cozy while resting! Aileen was so kind to send several pictures during the stay and was very communicative. She mimicked our schedule and environment, and when we picked Niko up, he was so calm and happy. We will definitely use Aileen and her family in the future as long as they’ll have us!”
“Kristen and her husband were great. My two dogs really enjoyed their stay. They get along well with Wallie too. Kristen kept us updated with their pictures.”
About: I’m a teacher, and I love dogs! Over the summer, any excuse to get outside and spend time with dogs is a good day for me. I would love to spend some time with yours! I have a rescue dog currently, Bruno. I’m on summer break, so I am not working full-time right now. I have plenty of time to give to your dog this summer! I am often walking every morning and afternoon anyway. I can help out in any way that’s needed. I love taking walks, and I’m always up for going the long way! For drop ins, I will give your pets some love and whatever else they need!
About: I am new to Richmond and looking to explore with my pup, Rubens. He has a lot of energy and loves to play with other dogs. I am comfortable with dogs of all breeds, ages, and energy levels. Would love for my dog to have a play mate during the day. Using Rover to keep a routine and explore Richmond while I look for a full time position. I am currently new to Richmond and in between jobs. I walk my dog anywhere from 5-12x a day from 15-75 minutes (depending on weather, need to get out of the house, etc.). My job right now is to enjoy the outdoors with my dog and yours! Rubens and I welcome all other dogs as family! I live in a first floor apt with a small fenced backyard (only for small dogs). There is a hallway that runs from the front door to the back yard area, which is where Rubens likes to do zoomies or be a watch guard dog for the doors. As far as behaviors, Rubens is allowed on my furniture and has a small basket of toys that he shares. Treats are only during training and water is down at all times. We are pretty flexible, but can also set rules per your request to stay on your schedule/routine.
“Another PHENOMENAL stay with Julie! I don't think my dog could love her more! Julie also really helped me out by picking up my dog from my neighbors house when I needed to leave early and made accommodations when I needed to shorten the sitting time. Run, don't walk, to this Rover sitter! I'm so grateful to have found her!”
“Megan did a wonderful job taking care of Crumpet! Between her friendly demeanor, questions, and excitement about watching Crumpet for a few days, we felt so comfortable leaving him with her. We know he got tons of love and attention from Megan and her roommates. She sent us photos regularly which we loved and very much appreciated. She was great at communication and quick to respond. We would definitely ask Megan to watch Crumpet again and would recommend her to others!”

I cannot say enough amazing things about Stephanie! She watched both of our Dachshunds for 8 days while we were away on our honeymoon, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our fur babies! ❤️ Leaving our pups for that long was not easy, but Stephanie gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in loving, caring hands. She treated them like they were her own, making sure they were comfortable, happy, and spoiled with love and attention! Being able to fully enjoy our honeymoon without worrying about our babies meant the absolute world to us. Finding someone you can genuinely trust with your pets is priceless, and Stephanie exceeded every expectation! We are beyond grateful for the love and care she gave our little ones. I would recommend her a thousand times over! If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets like family, Stephanie is your girl! 🐾❤️ We will absolutely be using her again!
Niko had a great time with Aileen and her family! Her kids were the perfect playmates for Niko. They played fetch, tug of war, and they even covered him with blankets to keep him cozy while resting! Aileen was so kind to send several pictures during the stay and was very communicative. She mimicked our schedule and environment, and when we picked Niko up, he was so calm and happy. We will definitely use Aileen and her family in the future as long as they’ll have us!
She treated Teddy like he was part of the family! ❤️ He fit right in and seemed like such a happy pup during his stay. She sent frequent updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, and her communication was excellent. It was clear that Teddy was comfortable, loved, and very well cared for. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur baby!
Carleen took care of our six-month-old pup, Franklin, on short notice, and we’re so grateful she was available. She was responsive and communicative from the start, sent pictures throughout his stay, and followed all of the instructions we provided. It was reassuring to see that Franklin was so well cared for. We would happily recommend Carleen to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter!
We’ve used Cassie multiple times, and she is absolutely THE BEST! Sully loves staying at her home and spending time with Cassie and her family. It’s such a relief knowing he’s happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we’re away. She is kind, attentive, and clearly treats him like one of her own. We couldn’t recommend her enough and will definitely continue using her whenever we need a sitter for Sully.
Taryn has been taking care of my pups for years, and I’m so grateful to have someone I trust. She took such great care of them. She sent lots of photos and updates, was incredibly flexible with our travel and flight schedules, and made it so easy for us to actually relax and enjoy our trip knowing they were in great hands. Such a huge relief to have her, and I can’t recommend her enough! ❤️
This was the first time we have used Rover and we couldn’t be more pleased and happy! Tonya was absolutely the best. She organized a meet and greet months ahead of time at her house to be sure Kipper felt comfortable. We were a bit nervous leaving an elderly dog who is mostly blind and deaf for 2 weeks, but Tonya took the very best care of him!
Boarding our dog Nova with Kristina, Ricky, and their two sweet kids was great! They were super accommodating with a fairly last minute request, and they took excellent care of her. Communication was a breeze, and we got plenty of photos and updates throughout the trip. She got a ton of attention and playtime during her stay, and seemed right at home when we picked her up! Would absolutely book with them again!
This was the second time Jocelyn watched my dog, and once again she was absolutely fantastic! She kept me updated throughout the stay with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog had a little anxiety and some tummy issues while I was away, and she handled everything with patience, care, and great communication. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my dog's well-being and made sure she was comfortable every step of the way. I couldn't ask for a better sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate. We will definitely be booking with her again if she'll have us!
Our 2 senior dogs loved staying an extended weekend with Nuoya and her family! We did a meet and greet prior to booking to make sure all our dogs got along with each other. They asked a lot of important questions about schedules and needs. While we were gone we received pictures every day as well as any important updates. Our dogs received all of of the love and care I could have ever hoped for with a sitter. I can't recommend them enough!

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
