“Randi was awesome! I don’t often leave my dog so I was fairly nervous to use a stranger. However, she came by while I was here to meet my dog, and watching her with him immediately put me at ease. We have already booked another session with her!”
“Once again, Cathy has done an amazing job caring for our dog! She pays attention to all of his needs and goes the extra mile to make sure Tanner is happy and cared for! Communication from Cathy is impeccable and she lets us know exactly what’s going on while we are away. Cathy is truly awesome!”
“Helen is wonderful! She responds quickly and was able to accommodate last minute requests. She is great with our puppy always keeping her entertained. We will definitely continue to use Helen’s services.”
“Laura was terrific with our two little dogs. Great communication. Photos after every visit, so I'd be reassured all is well! Will definitely hire Laura again in the future should the need arise.”
“Isabella took care of our cat and dog while we were away for Thanksgiving. She's so communicative and did great with our pets. We'd definitely use her again!”
“Anna took care of my 2 cats on short notice when I found myself without a sitter just before a work conference. Oral pet meds and sensitive pet behaviors were no issue for Anna! Thank you!”
“Although my cat was initially wary of a stranger, Alexandra made fast friends with him and I felt better knowing he wasn't too lonely while I was gone. Thanks Alexandra!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was little and have always been the designated pet-sitter in my neighborhood. I have watched puppies as well as elderly dogs, and am equipped to take care of their individual needs and routines! I am currently working part time and have a very flexible and open schedule. I have an active lifestyle and prefer to take multiple walks per day and will happily bring some furry company along! I also wake up early so I can make sure your pets are fed and taken care of within their normal routines. I have my own car that I am able to take over to clients’ homes to watch their pets at any times. And my own backyard is fenced and ready for boarding dogs. I have a small dachshund/yorkie mix that is very social and two sweet black cats that love company as well.
“Once again, Steven stepped up when the unexpected happened! I failed to provide the alarm access - and he had to deal with that ALARM sounding and the impact on the kitties. He is always calm and handles all issues with professionalism. Thanks (again!), Steven!”
About: Hello, my name is Darwin. I grew up around all kinds of animals and have many years of experience with taking care of dogs. I am trustworthy, reliable, and experienced. I am willing to care and sit for your companions for a reasonable price. I work full time as a manager and have a pretty flexible schedule. My free time usually starts after 3pm, but I can always plan accordingly to you and your pets need. I have a fenced yard that allows my pups to roam around and explore. They get consistent care and are very loved, and I would love to do the same for your furry friends.
About: I've owned dogs, cats & horses my entire life. I currently have 2 rescue dogs, 2 cats and a horse that are all treated like human children. I'm familiar with both young and elderly animals that require medical assistance. I work from home in Glen Allen. I have a flexible schedule and can check on your pet during the day and before/after work. I am comfortable with walking all dogs, crating dogs, working on commands and especially providing love and treats if desired! Happy to also prepare lick mats or other stimulation while you're away.
“My first experience with Rover and I could not have chosen a better pet sitter! My cat is normally very shy around unfamiliar people- she took to Chynna instantly. The pictures of Luna instantly put me at ease. I will definitely rebook with her next time!!”
“Olivia did a great job with my cats! She came by to meet me and the cats before I left for my trip. She sent me pictures every day and let me know how they were doing. My two cats have very different personalities. One is very shy, and one is very outgoing. She did well with both of them. She followed my instructions well. I am very pleased!!”
About: Not only have I owned and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, I've also fostered at the Richmond SPCA, RACC, and Sanctuary Rescue for a cumulative 13+ years. I'm highly experienced in animal behavior, nutrition, and medical needs. I do know animal CPR and I have no issue administering meds. I love animals and I am extremely familiar with their behavior. Please contact me to care for your pets so you can be stress free! I work from home which allows me to make my own hours and I can drop in any time past 9am. I am also used to pets with medical issues and can come over whenever needed to issue medicine. I keep a tidy house with many rescue cats and dogs. We have numerous litter boxes that are scooped or cleaned daily. People who come to my house are always shocked that I have cats. My dogs are kept as part of the family and have a large back yard to run around in.
About: I would take care of little to big puppies of all ages. My favorite was a 7 year Great Dane I would house sit for. I have always grown up with animals and would also pet sit when my parents were out of town. My schedule is super flexible, since I am a college student! I can work with the owner and make sure the dog and cats get the attention they need:) I walk, feed, play and bath pets have worked with and have in my own house. I go for long walks and feed pets based on the owners preference.
About: Hi! I'm Christynn, and I'm 19! I’ve worked with animals for years, starting at a boarding facility when I was 16, where I learned daily care, handling, and health monitoring. I also completed a two‑year animal science program in high school that earned me my Veterinary Assistant Certification. Now I’m studying Animal Science at Virginia Tech, continuing to build both hands‑on and academic experience with animal care and welfare. Now that I’m home for the summer, I have plenty of time to take care of your pups! I’m available throughout the week and on weekends, and the only day with limited hours is Sunday, I’m free after 1pm. I’m excited to spend my summer giving your pets lots of attention, walks, and love. I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet I care for. In your home, I follow your routines closely, feeding schedules, walk times, crate use, and any house rules you already have in place. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision so they feel secure while you’re away. I also keep an eye on behavior, eating, and overall well‑being, and I’ll always update you so you know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make your pet feel relaxed and cared for, and to give you total peace of mind while you’re gone.

Poindexters cat parents share their Rover experiences
Allyson is a repeat catsitter for me! We had her first for our wedding and we recently rebooked her again for a family beach trip, and I was so happy she was available! She took a lot of photos, and we loved getting our daily report cards which were always thorough and sweet to read! Both of my cats seemed to remember her from last time which made us happy, and she did a great job taking care of them and keeping the litter box clean. I would (once again) highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!
This was my first time using Rover and I’m glad I went with Lauren! She was great. Excellent communicator and took great care of my kitties. She even managed to snag a picture of my boy who is terrified of almost everyone and who I said would be hiding the whole time. I will absolutely use her for future trips!
Tiffany is an absolute superstar! We were leaving our little princess Ms Lizzz home alone for the first time since we got her and Tiffany was an absolute godsend. She was engaging, attentive and playful. I think Ms Lizzz will miss her visits now that we’re back home. Highly recommend Tiffany if you want peace of mind with your four-legged family while you’re away!
