“Marissa did an absolutely fabulous job of taking care of our two "elderly" greyhounds for a week. She made them comfortable and secure by sticking to their routine and gave them lots of love. She sent pictures and gave us regular updates and was very responsive to any questions that we had so we never had to wonder what was going on. I would highly recommend Marissa!!”

“Mark was incredible…he did overnight stays with our 11 year old blind, deaf pup without any hesitation. He is a great communicator and left the house in perfect condition. As this was a new arrangement, he asked questions to make sure something wasn’t out of the ordinary for our extraordinary pup, which I appreciate as he has truly had only 1 sitter in nearly 11 years! I cannot recommend him enough and we are actively booking out the rest of the year with him!”

“I was able to leave my two dogs for a week without any worries knowing Daniel was taking care of them. We have worked with Daniel before and will continue to moving forward.”

“Fran was awesome! My dog Betty immediately gravitated towards her and I felt very comfortable with her staying with Betty in my home. She was very communicative, respectful, and engaging. She updated me when she took Betty on walks and provided photos. She left the house very clean.”

“Eula was a great pet sitter! I have a pretty crazy household and I'm always nervous to leave them with just anyone. Eula was prompt, kept me up-to-date, and made sure that everyone was well taken care of. She eased my worries (since I have crazy, rambunctious huskies that need to kept separate from my other pups and kitties), made sure whoever needed their medications took them, and took such good care of my pup that has severe anxiety. I came home to a very happy household and I would definitely allow her to watch my babies again. Thank you!”

“Alex did a great job with our 2 pups. He took detailed notes at our meet and greet and followed their feeding and walking schedules carefully. Great communication and pics so we knew they were receiving good care. We’ve already booked Alex for our next time away”


“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!”
“Mallory was wonderful house sitting for us and our pup, Ruger. We never had to worry about communication, and I swear the house was cleaner when we got home than it was before we left. Mallory was a trooper during the winter storm and throughout our heat going out on them. We would highly recommend using Mallory for any of your pet sitting needs!”

“First time we’ve ever left our cat and home in the hands of a stranger. We have learned our cat might love Rosemary more than us. ? She kept us up to date with pictures. We’ll definitely book her again.”

“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!”

“Jenna is amazing! She took such great care of our 3 dogs and even taught them new tricks! She is extremely communicative and sent us photos and videos often. She left our house spotless and even watered my plants for me. She is now our go to person!”

“Emily was fantastic!!! She was able to come on short notice to watch my blind dog while I was at an appointment, pictures were sent while I was out and more importantly my lil man was kept safe and cared for!! Talk about peace of mind she made my day worry free, Thank You So Much!”

“This was the first time V dogsat for us and it was a wonderful experience! V was easy to communicate with, took excellent care of our pup, and even went above and beyond on caring for our home. Highly recommend!!”


“my dogs loved Collette and were happy and healthy when I came home. My home was left when she left as it was when I left for my trip, which means a great deal to me. Highly recommend.”

“Benson had an absolutely wonderful time with Helena!! Helena is so conscientious- twice daily updates with pictures! The house is immaculate when we return - highly recommend Helena!!!”

“Nora was a fantastic pet sitter for my dog. She was very considerate and attentive to learning all the details about my dog. I would gladly have her back again and felt so comfortable with her staying at my home.”

Angela did a PHENOMENAL job at taking care of my kittens. It was hard to leave them for the weekend because they’re still young, and I’ve only had them a month, but Angela being there brought me such a sense of relief and comfort. She gave in-depth updates and loads of pictures throughout the booking. She was also incredibly respectful of my place and went above and beyond cleaning (it was literally cleaner when I got back than it was when I left). I will absolutely be booking again, and can’t thank her enough for her professionalism and care provided for my lil babies 🥹

Makenzie is the best and did such a great job with my 9 year old high energy shepherd mutt! She was super responsive, sent lots of pictures, and took great care of our house. We hired her two weekends in a row and will definitely call her again for future dogsitting needs.

Mallory was the best choice for our pets! Having two dogs and two cats, it’s not always easy to find the right person to take care of them and we are new to Richmond. She spent the night wit them, making them feel comfortable and keeping us posted via texts and pictures. Our pets loved her, had no issues and she was respectful of our home. She also met us a couple times before the actual stay so that one of our dogs could get familiar with her. Couldn’t recommend her enough, you can tell she actually enjoys spending time with them and cares for their well-being!

Nina was absolutely wonderful at caring for my pups while I was away for work. They got to keep their general routine and her photos showed me they were up to their favorite things—walks, snoozing, getting pets. I loved the updates I got and would be lucky to book Nina again!

I adopted Gobi in May and this was our first time away from him. Emily was super great and from her updates it seems like Gobi had a great time! I was so worried that he was going to be naughty or difficult, but she made it seem really easy. I am so glad we found her and got peace of mind during our trip. I can’t thank you enough!

DJ was absolutely wonderful! In the face of some extenuating circumstances he took great care of our pup. We’ll definitely be keeping him in mind for any future sittings as he was prompt with replies and sent so many updates allowing us to enjoy our vacation with very little worry!

We could not have asked for a better house-sitting experience than with Ellie. Her communication was top-notch before, during, and after her stay which gave us peace of mind when leaving our senior kitty with health issues and our dog, who gets nervous whenever we're gone overnight. Lots of pictures and updates. She also did a wonderful job keeping our house in order, which is much appreciated when coming home after several days away. If we need pet sitting again, Ellie will definitely be at the top of the list. We highly recommend her!
