About: Hi there! My name's Tyler, and it's a pleasure to (virtually) meet you. I'm 40, moved to Richmond from Miami to be closer to family in 2023, and work from home as a consultant. I grew up with dogs. My whole family also has dogs, so I like to think we can't help but love them. I'm naturally a nurturer and a caregiver. My mom was a teacher, and we often had the class guinea pig/gerbil/goldfish/snake/cat at the house as well. I'm comfortable with all animals. I volunteered at shelters while I was in school in North Carolina, and currently pet-sit for my busy and oft-traveling friends: the most recent rotation includes terriers, golden retrievers, labs, rottweilers, and pitbulls, but I've never met a dog I don't like or that doesn't warm up to me, no matter how shy. I have a 8 year old golden retriever border collie mix named Bowie who is in the process of becoming a certified Pet Partner/Delta Dog (he likes to volunteer, too!). He is super social and loves all creatures, furry and non-furry. He can be here if you board with me or stay with my boyfriend - whichever you prefer. I grew up a Navy brat and manage both people and businesses for a living- I am a firm believer in treating people, animals, and their homes with respect and dignity. Your house, your rules. I'm also totally open to plant-sitting, bringing in mail, puppy play-dates, the odd chore, etc. I also offer the option of ‘boarding in your home’ without staying there: lots of my regular clients like their pets to stay in their comfort zone at home, and I visit 4x a day for 30 minutes or more; this is usually morning, midday, afternoon/evening, and night, with walks/food/meds/cuddles/etc. Let me know if you’d prefer this service to boarding in my home or yours - I’m amenable to whatever you think is best for your pet. Thanks for taking the time to read about me- I hope to meet you and yours in the near future! - Tyler - grew up with dogs - rescued and fostered and helped place multiple dogs - volunteered at animal shelter in Chapel Hill, NC for years - had a 15 year old golden retriever named Tucker, who was a certified Delta Dog (can volunteer in hospitals, nursing homes, great with children, the elderly, and other pets) - Has a 6 year old rescue Border Collie mix named Bowie, who lives with me full time - Spends a lot of time with my ‘Nephew Dogs,’ Murphy & Carlyle, a 2yr old Sheepadoodle and a 7 year old Westie, respectively - loves loves loves animals In my home, they’re family: frequent walks; a dog park (legion park), if you’re so inclined; they’re welcome on furniture; I have multiple dog beds, toys, a crate, a balcony where they can watch birds, etc. In your home, however you specify. I respect and adhere to your rules for your pet family and for your home. It dictates my daily routine! I have a flexible schedule and pets come first - happy to work on your dog or cat’s normal schedule to keep things as aligned with normal as possible while you’re away. Pets in my home are welcome everywhere and have free access to water, toys, furniture, pet beds, blankets, etc. We go for lots of walks and I send lots of pictures!
“Not just daycare - exercise, socialization, and good, safe fun for your dog. Our active, social 4 month old puppy came home exhausted and happy!”
About: Hello! My name is Kyla and since I was 5 years old my family and I have always welcomed needing pets to our home and family. I’ve also been frequently trusted with caring for neighbors’ and family pets during their times away. With this background I’ve been given the hands on experiences to understand and provide the needs of pets who are away from their home environment and would ensure that my home and care is a welcoming and comforting temporary replacement to what you provide to them. Looking forward to being your trusted sitter! I currently work from home full-time and am much of a homebody outside of that, giving me plenty of time to care for and play with your furry friends and provide frequent updates on their stays away from you. I live in an apartment but am very close to nearby parks and walking areas and would be sure to frequently give your pets their much needed doses of fresh-air and outdoor playtime. When in a client’s home, I am sure to treat it as my own and maintain the routine that they’re accustomed to.
“Very accommodating and good communication!”
“Despite the late request, Ross answered very quickly and was able to arrange a brief meeting the same night for Murdoch and his dog to meet. The day after, we left Murdoch with Ross and Ava and everything went monthly with a few pictures of Murdoch's day. I recommend Ross and Ava !”
“Danielle and Matt were amazing - so responsive and helpful with our dog despite the last minute ask. They kept us updated about how he was doing throughout the day as well which is always appreciated!”
“This was our first time leaving our 1-year-old dog with someone outside of the family since we got him. Katelynn was awesome with Zeus and was great with him from the very start! He typically is very scared of new people and refuses to leave our side but she made him feel comfortable and safe from the start! She kept us up to date throughout the day which made us feel safe. We will definitely have Zeus stay with her next time, she was wonderful and I would highly recommend her!”
About: My wife and I had a successful dog-sitting business using a different app for years. Your pet will be well cared for. If they are on a special diet, no problem. I am organized and will ensure your pet is well-fed, walked, and playing. My wife and I are working from home so we will be happy to set your pet for you while you vacation or just want to take a little break. Your pet will be able to chill and relax or we can go to the near by dog park to get rid of that puppy energy. I have an open schedule. I work as a Lyft driver and have a side business. I have plenty of time to walk and play with the pets we care for. We ha e a fenced in large yard with plenty of space for the dogs to run and play in. They always enjoy playing and running in the yard.
“Great experience with Keesha and family. From the moment we contacted them, the communication was prompt and we were able to set up a time quickly. We dropped Ollie off for a short 4 hour visit and everyone was very friendly and nice. Ollie was very happy and seemed to enjoy his time at Keesha’s house. We would recommend this sitter and use them again! :)”
“My puppy Max loves staying with Cameron. She is great with communication and sending pics of him throughout his stay. She has flexible hours as well :)”
“Julie was a delight to have host our dog Morty for daycare. She is an exceptional communicator and made Morty feel right at home.”
About: I took a break from Rover, but back to take care of your fur babies! I grew up surrounded by pets. From living on a farm to having three labs at home, I know the importance of love and care for our animals. My family was the kind to take in stray pets and find them good homes. Our pets are just as important as any person (probably more). I am currently a student, and have very little in person classes. I am home for most the day if not all to provide the love and needs for your family. I live near plenty of parks and have a spacious apartment for your pet to explore and play! I love to have lots of fun time and cuddle time just as much! I want nothing more than for your pet to feel safe and taken care of!
“Joyce is great! She takes care of my dog Banana on a daily basis while I’m at work & is constantly working with my crazy sales schedule. Joyce takes great care of Banana, making sure she’s fed twice a day, has pleeenty of potty breaks & all the love & affection she could ask for! She even sends me daily pictures of my old pup throughout the day, which always cheers me up! 10/10, would recommend 😊”
