“Kelly did an amazing job with my dogs! They are all senior small dogs, and one in particular needs special care plus lots of TLC. Kelly had no problems dispensing the medications, including eye drops, which can get tricky with small dogs. Kelly quickly earned their trust, and my pups were all perfectly happy when I got home. I highly recommend Kelly and plan to request her services again!”
“Jade did an amazing job! She took excellent care of my dog and 3 cats, she sent pictures and was very communicative! Would definitely recommend her and if I need services again I will be asking Jade!”
“Jackie was really great, sending me updates while she watched Basil and I could just tell she was taking good care of her. I would absolutely recommend using Jackie to watch your pets!”
About: Ive always had pets growing up along with taking care of hamsters, fish, rabbits, dogs, cows, goats, horses (the one as cover photo was my horse, Echo) and cats for people through the years. I watched dogs overnight for family friends which included walks, let out to use bathroom and feed. I worked with horses at barns with 20 or more horses, plus cows and dogs. I would make sure all turned out to pasture after am feed, clean stalls, groom amd just all basic care. I love animals and gave up my career as a horse breeder to be a military wife and then became a mom to 3 wonderful kids. I would like to be able to help someone who needs a walker. I am a stay at home mom with 1 in school. I am free in mornings and depending on whats needed can add afternoons later as a schedule is set up. Im very active outdoors with my kids. Im a big runner so i push a triple jogger so a dog that needs long walks or runs i can easily help with. If small walks are needed I can do that as well. I love being outside and staying healthy and love to have my kids part of that. My kids of course will be coming with me, all 3 will be only when no school. So Im very open and willing to help. I have a huge pen set up for our rabbits to run about in. They arent outside and get so much attention from the kids, they wont be bothered by any dogs. We have a small cemented yard thats fenced if need to bring a dog back here.

When I come to your house to care for your pets, I will respect any of your wishes and treat your babies with love and care.
“We had such a great experience! 😊 She took wonderful care of our cats while we were away, making sure their dry food stayed filled, giving them fresh water daily, and even keeping up with their wet food routine. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Everything was clean, organized, and our cats seemed happy and relaxed when we got home (which says a lot!). Communication was great too, we really appreciated the updates. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again! 🐾”

About: *Base Access* I have grown up with dogs all my life and I currently have a fur baby of my own.

About: Potty-trained puppies volunteered at an animal shelter in Moore County, and trained cats to use litter boxes. Taught dogs to do tricks; sitting, shake, rollover. I have recently relocated back to Jacksonville, and will be working part time, which allows me the opportunity to care for fur-fixable babies on my own schedule. I am flexible with my time and will make sure that your pets needs are met while you are away. I will follow the pet owner's instructions word for word! They know their pets better than anyone. I'll take their lead on it and be patient.
About: For as long as I can remember, I have grown up with both dogs and cats! I have been surrounded by them whether it be them being my own pets( or should I say my own family members because let’s face it, they are our family), my relatives house and even my neighbors house when babysitting. I know it can be hard leaving your fur baby alone, I just hope that I can make them and you comfortable! I am a full time teacher at Camp Lejeune! I work Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 5:30 pm so I am available weekdays after 5:45 pm and then all weekend long. I take hour lunches so if in a nearby neighborhood I can let them out during the day or frequently on the weekends! In order to keep you and them at the most comfortable, I am able to house sit and take care of them in the comfort of your own home. I am 100% honest so that everyone has a happy, healthy and most importantly and safe stay!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Richlands stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Richlands choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Richlands with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
