House Sitting Richmond

“Christina is a very caring and flexible cat sitter. We appreciated the way she went the extra mile to make our cats feel comfortable and supported when we were away (they have some separation anxiety issues). Her communication was excellent and we felt like they were in good hands throughout. We also appreciated all the photos and status updates. We will definitely book Christina again!!”

“Alexys provided house sitting for us for ten days. She did a phenomenal job, kept us updated frequently, and followed our instructions beautifully. She was respectful of our home and maintained it well during her stay. We would invite her back to sit again! Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Nutmeg.”

“Sarah was super communicative and flexible and took awesome care of our three pets! We felt really comfortable leaving our puppy with her and everyone was happy when we came home! Thanks Sarah!”

“Makaylah was great for Marcus. I really appreciated that she stuck to his puppy routine while I was gone so that he right away felt comfortable and safe with her. Even the staff in the front office of my building remarked how happy Marcus looked whenever they saw her coming in and out of the building with him on walks. She also went the extra mile and washed the sheets and remade the bed before she left. I will definitely request her for Marcus again!”

Natosha S.

“She is absolutely amazing! She keeps me very informed during her time with Duchess. She plays a lot with her and it shows from how tired she is when we get back! She is so kind and a good sitter! Definitely use her!”

About: I’ve been a dog owner for 13 years (plus grew up with family dogs!) and when I cannot be home in time to take care of my own, I am stressed and worried. When I find someone to help care for my dog, I want them to take as much care as I would. So when I'm taking care of someone else's dog I will care for them the same way! If your dog has any special needs, I am very open to learning about them and want to know how I could best take care of them so both you and your dog are safe and happy.

“Ari did a great job taking care of Shadow while I was away. He provided updates, and pictures and videos daily, and was awesome about following the care instructions I provided. I think Shadow was a little sad to see Ari go, and I would definitely rebook!”

“Olivia was wonderful with our pup! He’s still young and so it was so nice to have someone we could count on to take great care of him so we could enjoy our time away without stress. We will definitely book again!”

Samantha M.

“Luke was incredible! We were gone for 5 days, entrusting our large, high energy, chaotic dog and 2 cats with Luke. Luke kept us apprised of any issues, while also fostering a sense of trust. I highly recommend Luke!”

Natalie A.

“Brittany was awesome with Libby, super information and forthcoming when Lib grabbed something she shouldn’t have had. I am so grateful for her attentiveness and honesty!”

Calli G.

“Darina was amazing! I had her stay in my home to watch my dog and she consistently gave me thorough updates and photos that put me at ease while I was away. She earned trust and I will definitely be rebooking!”

Cheyenne B.

“Molly went above and beyond with communication and care for my pets. I came home to a very well taken care of home. My cat Pip is scared of everyone, but absolutely loved Molly. I am so appreciative of the love that was given to my babies while I traveled.”

Gabrielle G.

“Very communicative and paid very good attention to my dog. My dog is leash reactive and hyperactive and she was able to give him all the attention he needed.”

About: I have worked with all kinds of animals throughout my life, learning to train cats and dogs on my own. I’m also familiar with exotic pets such as pythons and bearded dragons. I can comfortably administer different kinds of medications to most animals, including oral liquids and pills, sub-Q and IM injections, and topicals. Currently I am available as a full-time pet sitter for house-stays and drop-ins. I often sit for multiple houses at once, doing house-stays for one client and drop-ins for 1-3 others depending on the services and times needed per client. When I meet an animal for the first time, my priority is gaining their trust. I spend time casually observing so I can take note of their personality and physical forms of communication, but I don’t get too close or move too quickly until I’ve given the animal a chance to take me in as well. Once trust is established, we can move on to wearing leashes and harness, medication routines, playing, etc.

About: New to Rover! From rescue puppies to senior dogs, I have never lived without a dog in my home. My big move to the city has me missing my furry friend and I'd love to help take care of yours!

I'm new to the app but I am up for going on long walks, playing around, or just hanging out! I have experience providing medication and working with various feeding routines. I hope I'll be able to provide you with caring and reliable help! My current schedule gives me 4-day weekends giving me ample time to give attention to your fur-baby! I'm available for overnights during these days (including Mondays to early Tuesday mornings) or any other needs! I can exist in your space however is best for you and your pet. I provide quick and open communication, allowing relief of any concerns. I love sending pictures throughout my time caring for your fur-baby!

“Maya was a godsend during an insane holiday-time scramble. Our pets loved her, she was extremely respectful of our space, and went so far as to make sure our apartment was spotless upon our return. She provided lots of updates with pictures and videos (and even made sure our plants lived)! 10/10 would recommend Maya.”
