House Sitting in Richmond

“Kristie was so wonderful. She was extremely attentive to my dog's needs, gave him a lot of attention, and he very clearly loved her from the pictures she sent. She consistently sent photos of the routes they walked on Google maps to show that she'd made sure Franklin was given enough exercise and stimulation, which I really appreciated. I would absolutely book her again!”

“I was impressed with Catherine from start to finish. My pets immediately took to her, and she gave them lots of love and care while I was away. She sent regular updates and pics, and I felt very comfortable with her caring for them in my home. I was extremely impressed and happy with her and her service. Highly recommend her!”

“Heather is amazing! She made time to stop and take care of my dogs. One is blind and she was able to take care of him and help him out. She a very nice and very respectful lady.”

“Katie did a wonderful job following our detailed directions on feeding and giving medicine to our rabbits. You would be lucky to have someone like her stay at your house and care for your animals.”

“Stephanie is a lover of all animals big and small and is always great with pets. She is kind, gentle and patient whenever she is caring for our pets and is always sure to give all the necessary care and affection. I definitely recommend her if you're looking for someone to help you with your pet care needs!”

“We are so happy to have found Erin. She spent the weekend with Koda and Parker while we were busy with our son's wedding and we didn't worry one bit because we knew they were being taken care of and loved. We came home to 2 happy dogs and a clean house! Thank you so much Erin.”

“I believe that Suzette would be a good addition for Rover because of her diverse and long history of pet and animal care. She has taken care of many breeds of dogs as well as both indoor and outdoor cats. She also keeps a sharp eye out for any sign of poor health and preforms research when the pet's health concerns her. Finally, she makes sure to keep a close eye on them and keeps them out of trouble. Overall, she takes very good care of her pets and can be trusted around other people's pets.”

“Hope is an extremely caring, passionate, and patient person and caregiver. She cares for pets as if they are her own. I highly recommend giving Hope the honor of caring for your pet.”

“She was so nice and sweet with our fur babies. Our youngest dog Deacon is every timid and nervous of new people, but he warmed up to her so quickly he was sleeping right next to her the same night she stayed. My husband and I have been recommending her to everyone in the family and anyone on here looking for a pet sitter.”

“Karie was absolutely wonderful caring for our two dogs while we were away for the weekend. She was always sending photos of the dogs and making sure they were well cared for. We would highly recommend Karie for all of your animal needs!”

About: Though I do not have previous pet experience, I have grown up with dogs of my own and will ensure that your furry friends receive the care that I provide my own. I will treat each dog as part of my family! I have a very flexible schedule currently, and would love to be able to help you and your furry friend with your pet care needs. My dog stays inside in a lovely air conditioned home. He is crate trained and I am able to crate train your dog as well. I walk my pup 2 miles most days.

About: I’m not just a sitter—I’m your pet’s new best friend! Whether your pup loves belly rubs, long sniffy walks, or just a cozy lap to snooze on, I’ve got it covered. I’ve worked with playful puppies, mellow seniors, and everything in between. Need meds given or a nervous dog soothed? No problem—I’ve got a calm touch and lots of patience. I treat every pet like my own and always send fun updates, so you never miss a tail wag or silly moment! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine! I’m available for morning visits before 8:30 AM, quick check-ins or walks during lunch, and flexible evening care after 4:30 PM. Whether your pet needs a morning cuddle, a midday break, or company after work hours, I can be there to give them the love and attention they deserve throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like family! While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, I make sure dogs get plenty of leashed walks, playtime, and attention. I also have a sweet, gentle older pitbull mix who’s very calm and friendly with other dogs. I always do slow, supervised introductions to make sure everyone is comfortable. In clients' homes, I follow your routines closely—whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, or just keeping your pet company—so your pet feels safe and loved while you're away.

“Jess is a great pet sitter. She gave Lady Bird lots of love and attention. She is always responsible and shows up on time. I trusted her to feed and walk Lady Bird plus spend time with her for just a couple days or up to a week.”

“Brittany was great! She was perfect for giving Shadow attention and making him feel comfortable. She also sent pictures and communicated with me regularly while staying with him. I would definitely use her again!!”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I can remember, I grew up with many dogs and cats, and helped to take care of them by, walking, feeding, bathing, and playing with them. I have also helped out in the neighborhood by taking care of the neighbors pets while away. I absolutely love all animals! I have a 1 yr old cat her name is Luna, and a 9 yr old puppy her name is Charlie, whom are the biggest pieces of my heart! I currently work as a paraprofessional at a school, I love my job and enjoy every minute with the kids! I have a ton of patience, and I am very responsible. I would love to help you with your fur babies!! I’m currently working part-time as a paraprofessional with children, which means I have plenty of time to for your fur babies. I am a substitute paraprofessional, so I get called into work when needed, which also means I don’t have a set schedule. But the days I am not called in and the weekends I am available! I have a cat whom is not to fond of other pets, especially in her home, but I am 100% willing to come to you. I require you to have a leash and harness if you would like me to walk your pet, this way I can ensure the safety of your pet and mine as well. I will let your pets outside to play as long as you give the okay and ONLY if the yard is fenced in. I will ask questions about your pet to help me better understand them, and if there is anything you would like to ask me please do not be afraid!! I’m great with communication so I will communicate a lot with you about your pet. Before I pet sit your pet for the first time, I would like to spend some time getting to know your pet with you present first. If there is anything else you would like to know please do not hesitate to ask!!

“Shane is awesome! He took great care of our 3 goldens and 4 cats. He was very good with Tank (our high maintenance dog) and was able to keep him calm and happy. We got daily photos and updates. I never worried. Shane is trustworthy and dependable. I think the dogs were upset when we got home as they were hoping it was Shane. Thank you for taking good care of everyone while we were away. We will always look to book Shane for our pet sitting needs.”

“Chris is reliable, trustworthy, and is truly a lover of all animals. His knowledge of canine care is immense as he's demonstrated by going above and beyond in the care of his own fur baby and for mine.I highly recommend him as a pet sitter and care giver to anyone who wants the best for their pets”
