“Nell is so wonderful and clearly so knowledgeable about pet care. You can tell she really loves animals. My anxious rescue pup adores her! Highly, highly recommend! I am so thankful I found her!”


About: As a pet parent to two dogs and a cat, I know firsthand how important it is to maintain a pet's daily routine in their own comfortable environment. Because I work from home, I bring my flexible schedule directly to you, providing dedicated sitting and drop-in care without leaving your pets alone for long hours. You can relax knowing your home will be respected and your animals will receive attentive companionship, regular exercise, and plenty of love. I'm currently working from home with a flexible schedule so I'll have plenty of time to care for your pets. I'm available weekends, most afternoons and evenings. I'll stick to your pet's routine in their own home, giving your fur baby the company/exercise they need and giving you peace of mind while you're away!
“Kai took great care of my 2 dogs! Took them on a nice long walk, and made sure they had everything they needed. Also, he was able to book on very short notice! Would definitely book another walk with Kai for next time.”

About: I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages, shapes, sizes, and personality. I have trained puppies before (and even my cat can do tricks) as well have helped care for elderly pets who need extra attention. I am very skilled at reading animal body language and finding the right way to connect with each unique furry friend. My schedule is very open! I currently see clients on Tuesday afternoons/evenings for an internship, but otherwise my schedule is open and flexible. There are occasional dates where I have other obligations, but I generally am able to work with most schedules. NOTE: Not looking to house sit for longer than 3 days at a time. I am very respectful of the spaces of others, and aim to leave no trace other than my care for your pets. I am training to be a therapist/counselor, so I very much understand how fundamental mutual trust, boundaries, and communication are in a healthy working relationship and take that extremely seriously regardless of what service I am providing.
About: I have taken care of many kinds of pets since I was a child. I’ve tended to animals of all ages from seniors all the way to newborns. I worked in a dairy goat farm for around 4 years. Most of my work involved feeding, administering treatments, grooming, and general care for the dogs and goats on the farm. I also worked in zoos, where I cared for a wide array of species. Some of my favorites included penguins, sea lions, and giant tortoises. (Although I’m assuming that the average Rover member will not be requiring penguin care… I am prepared!) I love all animals, and understand the importance that pets have in a person’s life. I am committed to giving your pet the best care possible and am so excited to meet your animals!! I am currently a full time college student that is done for the summer and have a very flexible schedule. I will be fully available on the weekends as well as most weekdays and am happy to find a time that works for everyone! I live in an home with 2 others as well as one small long haired dachshund. We have a backyard patio and the surrounding area is easily walkable, I will be happy to take your pet on as many walks/give them as much outside time as needed. I have no problem with pets on the furniture, but am willing to abide by whatever rules, schedules, or boundaries that you have set for your animals.
“Anna was so professional and considerate of our house and our old dog. She asked all the right questions and made sure he was comfortable with her before we booked. Absolutely would recommend!”

“Ivory goes above and beyond to give our pups a great walk and attention while we are at work. Both dogs happy and tired in the evening. Ivory is quick to communicate with us and takes great pictures of dogs each walk. We highly recommend Ivory!”

About: I have owned several dogs throughout my life. Most recently a border/aussie mix , I called him border awesome for 14 years and he spent everyday with me until his passing. I currently help care for two golden retrievers. I have a safe and comfortable home with a yard. I can host or come to where service is needed the most. Open to young and old owners and pets. I feel dogs and animals can sense people the best, once your pet meets me, they will feel comfortable knowing I will care for them with love and respect! VIP Love Care! I'm currently working part-time and have some time that I can spare to help support you and your pets's needs with confidence. I can schedule ahead or possibly take care of last minute request that come up when available. Can be flexible on timing and weird work schedules. I have a multi-level house with a fenced in yard. I have a family of a 3 year old and wife, both dog lovers and open to hosting pets in our home. We have separate space and have gates if needed. Great neighbor park dog park and community for walks. Lots of fresh air, love , exercise etc. !! Can accommodate giving medications or tending to special diets/needs

“Teryx loves Karly and her dog Nova. Karly has always been very dependable and gives us pertinent updates on Teryx’s behavior. We trust that she deeply cares for our dog and understands our needs as dog owners, too. We are lucky to have Karly to be around our dog regularly.”

“Ursula is the best! She has walked my dog twice since my injury. She confirms walks very quickly and has great availability. She can handle my dog reactive pup :)”

“Angela did a great job taking care of my pup! They walked and played in the yard and she took some beautiful pictures to share with me. She was very communicative and arrived on time both days. I'd recommend her without reservation!”

“Kayla has been great with my pups, they seem to really enjoy their walks with her. She is responsive, timely, and follows instructions wonderfully. I look forward to booking with her for regular walks during my work week!”

About: Hello! Give me a reason to be outside and to bring your pup with me! I grew up with a veterinarian for a dad so I’m no stranger to critter care and maintenance. Whether you have a Great Dane or a Chihuahua (I’ve owned two of each!) I’m ready to go strolling with them! Also very comfy with cats. I am busy busy with work but looking to fill in some of my down time with pet walks and check ins. I have a fluctuating schedule and am available and random times. I am unable to provide pet care in my home. As for entering an animals space, I proceed with friendly caution and follow cues of the animal. Safety for all is #1!
About: If you're looking for a petsitter that is communicative, responsive, patient, consistent, and experienced, you're at the right place! I have taken care of cats and dogs of all different personalities, sizes, and ages! I care about your pets and ensure that I offer the best service that I can. Before and after walks, I always make sure that your pets are hydrated. In my Rover cards, I provide detailed descriptions of my visit/stay with your pets! If you're working on training your pets, I'll update you on improvements and behavior. Rest assured, I've got you covered. I'm currently working part-time as I am also a remote designer. I aim to conduct visits/walks during the day with preference of weekdays - however, I can be flexible when need be! I always have a checklist for my visits to ensure that I've got all grounds covered especially if I am working with multiple pets in a visit. For multiple occasions, I've had to take care of 3 dogs/cats for a visit with different dietary plans and needs.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Richmond is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Richmond
I honestly wasn’t sure we’d ever enjoy walks with Georgie. He pulled constantly, got overstimulated really easily, and I felt like I had tried everything. Working with Chris has made such a huge difference. He took the time to explain what Georgie needed, showed us how to properly use the prong collar as a communication tool, and gave us things to work on between sessions. Within just a few weeks, Georgie was walking so much better. He’s more focused, calmer, and actually checks in with me instead of dragging me down the sidewalk. It’s made walks so much more enjoyable, and I feel like I understand my dog so much better now. If you’re on the fence, do it. I only wish we had started sooner!

I was apprehensive about using Rover, but I needed help during a recent work trip and hired Raphael. I'm glad I did. He was attentive, communicative, and accommodating with my schedule which included 3 walks per day, one of which was an hour. I would recommend working with Raphael to take care of your pets and for peace of mind. Thanks!

Tiana is absolutely wonderful!!! She’s communicative, pays attention to detail and is so in tune with Tilly. Tilly automatically felt comfortable around her and gets so excited when Tiana comes by. We appreciate her and she has made our life so much better with the kind care that she provides.
