Ashley was our first experience with a pet sitter and she was amazing! Our puppy had the best time during her visit. In addition to caring for him. Ashley prepared our puppy's food to accommodate his special dietary needs. Ashley arrived right on time, showed great care, and provided insightful photos of her visit with our puppy. Five stars!

About: I've had hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats for many years and truly love spending time with animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether it's feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, cleaning up after them, administering basic care, or simply giving them plenty of attention and affection, I'm committed to treating every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and my goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate pet care throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and most holidays. Because I currently care for my three cats every day, I understand the importance of maintaining a pet's routine and making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. My cats' care does not limit my availability. I simply schedule my day around their needs, allowing me to provide reliable and dependable care for your pets as well. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in visit, a walk, or extended care, I'm happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I treat every animal with the same patience, kindness, and care that I give my own pets. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special instructions so they feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I believe in providing a calm, positive environment where pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands.

About: Trustworthy and dependable, I have taken care of a wide variety of animals animals over the years, including dogs, outdoor cats, ragdoll cat, birds, chickens, horses, and calves. I understand every animal has its own unique needs and deserves compassionate care. Whether it's walks, feeding, playtime, drop in visits, overnight stays, or giving medication, I will provide reliable care. I have a flexible schedule I can work around for pets staying here, sleeping on the floor or outside. I will be gone during the day some days of the week, if they are ok left alone. I work at a greenhouse 3 days a week and could take puppies under a year with me to work. And also most dogs if theyre used to be out and about. I would accept puppies under a year not fixed. I have 2 ziplines in my yard and your pets are more than welcome to stay here if they would be OK with those accommodations. I can pick up and drop off typically would suit best in the evenings. I would also stay in your home so they could stay in familiar territory, but i have a greenhouse job and will be gone a good part of the day. And also work prn at an assisted living but il try to wait till 2 weeks till to pick up shifts. Cuz thats my requirement for bookings. I also have a 1 year old Aussie Mountain Doodle that will be coming with me. He loves meeting new friends. If youre worried about him getting along we can do a meet and greet. For clients within 30 miles of Gallatin, I will send you a 15% discount for less mileage. I look forward to meeting you and your pets. My profile shows Kingston, it's because I work in Kearney and am around there a lot. So dropping by between Jamesport and Kearney will be easy. I had to move my town to get the area I wanted. I have a flexible schedule and can work around it to help care for your pets, for drop in visits, walks, feeding, playtime or stays. I will care for your pets and home as if it were my own. I have stayed in multiple air bnbs and have a high rating as a traveler.

About: As an insurance agent I look forward to my afternoon walks. So why not enjoy them a lot more with your furry family member. I have always had a dog and have two now. I enjoy walking, running and playing with them just like I will enjoy playing and walking your dog or dogs. I'm adult, responsible, love dogs and am even an Eagle Scout :) I have a life time of experience with dogs and always seem to be their favorite at friends houses and parties. I look forward to sharing my day with your dog :) Whether I'm just dropping by to let them out or exploring the neighborhood on a nice walk in good or bad weather. I look forward to making both your dogs and yours acquaintance. I have a super flexible schedule so I can make meeting and playing with your dog a priority. I work all over the city and am able to get to all parts of town. When taking care of your pet I will be fully engaged with them. I don't just let them out the door. I play, pet and make sure your dog is happy and having fun.

About: I am a caring, easy going, and loving individual who loves to spend his days hanging out with animals! I have two pups of my own, and several niece and nephew cats/dogs. Theater is a hobby, but animals are my passion! I am a theater/history major and am home during the day Monday-Friday. I spend around 3-4 hours a evening working on plays. However, do take note Saturdays I am typically gone for a few hours in the afternoon-evening. I have enough time to love, care for, and play with your babies! I specialize in caring for elderly and high energy dogs. I have worked with multiple Belgian Malinois and dog sit for a family that has two Belgian Malinois, and a Great Pyrenees. Both of which have drastically different lifestyles. I play with, care for, and love on each animal differently depending on its needs! I had a dog with diabetes who got three injections a day. This required a schedule that was easy for me to pick up on!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Richmond

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Richmond on Rover is $41.07 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 297 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Richmond. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 cat, 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Richmond. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.
