House Sitting in Richmond

“Melissa was great! She was the first pet sitter we had outside of family and she put our minds at ease with lots of pictures. She was punctual, cleaned up after herself, knowledgeable about animals and most importantly, loved on our animals like they were her own. We’ll definitely hire Melissa again in the future.”

About: I have been an animal lover my whole life. I have 7 years of working in the veterinary field as a vet tech. Where I have care for both small, large and exotics animals. I have medical training and experience to be able to handle giving medicine as needed. I have 5 years of equine experience of owning and caring for horses. I have also owned my own hobby farm where I have cared for farm animals. I do this FULL TIME and love every minute! I take daily walks with my own dog down the trails by my house! He loves it! I have a fenced in yard for your dog to play in. I have 1 other dog to keep yours company and to have a friend. I have baby gates and crates if needed. I have separate eating locations as well. Dishes are washed daily. Endless supply of fresh water!

“I highly recommend Joshua to anyone. He took very good care of my two fur babies. He cleaned up after them. One of my babies is just 7 months ,but he managed to keep up with her. I loved that he sent pictures of them and kept in contact throughout the days. My babies were very happy to have him there. Will definitely be having him watch them again! ?”

“Alyssa was a perfect fit for our household of one momma dog and her 6 puppies. She was attentive to making sure all the puppies were eating and all the bathroom breaks the mom wanted. She would send updates and pictures to ease my mind. I would highly recommend her.”

“Jaymie was wonderful. Ruthie is a bit nervous at first and Jaymie was so patient and loving. She sent pictures and gave me updates every day. She was also very respectful of our home. My house was clean the way I left it and she had all her bedding removed and towels that she used in folding and laying neatly in a pile ready for me to wash. She is amazing and I will definitely use her again. She is highly recommended from us and Ruthie.”

“We are so happy we found Aubrie. I can't say enough good things about our experience with her! She stayed at our home over the entire weekend, and we couldn't have been happier with the love she gave to our dogs. Throughout the weekend, she maintained clear communication with us, sending photos and updates that reassured us our dogs were in great hands, which made our trip worry-free. Both of our dogs were so comfortable and happy with her! When we returned home, the dogs were relaxed and content, showing no signs of anxiety from our absence. We wholeheartedly recommend Aubrie to anyone in need of a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. We will definitely be booking her again for our next getaway! Thank you, Aubrie, for your outstanding service! (Bruder and Vida send their love also).”

“My 3 dogs give Christy a big Paws Up! Christy gave us the no-worries vacation we were looking for. The pictures she sent were proof of canine content. We would definitely ask for Christy again.”

“I am always very comfortable letting Shannan watch my Rosey. She also has a dog of her own and never has a problem handling 2 dogs. Shannon is also very good at sending text messages and photos to let us know how Rosey is doing. Shannon makes sure Rosey gets her daily walks and adequate play time. She is very responsible and treats other people‘s pets like her own.”

“Molly watched our human society rescue dog and her six newborn puppies. She did a great job and treated Lola and her pups like they were her own dogs. Molly has such a calming disposition and was so kind we knew the dogs were in the perfect hands for the day. She sent pics and updates during our time away. We would definitely use her again!!”

“Mihaela was the perfect sitter for my boy Tully. She was very punctual and was great at communicating. She sent me daily pictures and updates as well. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”

“Cecily was great, serviced early as it was her first time looking after Frank. Kept him very happy with a trip to the beach. Would definitely book again”

“Meghan is the absolute best. Our big Pyrenees puppy loves her, and she takes such good care of him. She is always on time, and takes the best pictures. She has been a life saver helping to sit him with very little notice on many occasions. She is extraordinarily reliable and trustworthy and we would highly recommend her!”

“Gabby was great. She hung out with my three dogs and two cats for several hours. They had only met her one time prior, so I wasn’t sure how they were going to respond. They were all cuddling in no time. I had total peace of mind while Gabby was here. She’s trustworthy and she kept me up-to-date with photos! It took me a long time to pull the trigger with Rover, I wish I would’ve done it sooner. Thank you Gabby!”

“Jenni did a great job watching my 4 pets over a long weekend. She went above and beyond as my backyard was crazy muddy and she had to deal with muddy, excited dogs. She cleaned and showered them and even took towels to her home to wash them before we returned. It was nice to know my pets were in good hands when I was away.”

“Michelle has been so sweet, patient and playful with our energetic Jack Russell puppy! She supports our training program and gives him so much affection and attention. We know he is in good hands and always looks forward to his visits with mama Michelle! She keeps a very clean home, has a nice neighborhood for walks and lives near a park for longer hikes. Michelle’s love for animals is apparent and we trust her 100% to take good care of our sweet pup! We are so grateful for her!”

“Jordan watched my border collie for me last year for a few days. She was absolutely wonderful. She filled me in on how my dog was doing, sent me photographs, took my dog on many walks, and you could tell she really enjoys being around animals. She also has had about 2 years of experience working in a pet resort and that put me extremely at ease when looking for someone to watch my pup! She was wonderful and I would definitely use her again :)”
