House Sitting in Richmond

“Avery took excellent care of Lulu. She is a senior dog and requires lots of monitoring. She sent me updates and pictures. We will continue to use Avery for future stays.”

“A sudden overnight trip came up and with only 5 days notice and Nichole was still able to assist us AND do a meet and greet with my fussy rescue dog and oddball cat just to make sure everything will be okay. The meet and greet went great and I felt 1000% okay leaving my furbabies in such good company. Nichole was in constant contact with me in case of any issues or questions and both pets got a whole photo shoot of photos to share with us while we were away and missing our babies. I'm actually thinking of framing a handful of the pictures they were too cute and fun. The time, care and attention provided exceeded all my expectations and then some. It's comforting to know we have her closeby for future needs.”

“Samantha was fantastic! She sent us pictures when she popped in to check on our dogs. She cleaned up any messes they made and kept us updated on their general demeanor. 10/10 would recommend!”

Morgan R.

“Jesi was wonderful. Leah, our pup, was happy and healthy when we returned. Clearly she was loved while we were gone. Jesi sent messages and pictures while we were away. Also, she took great care of our home. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, thank you, thank you Jesi.”

“Sierra was great to work with. I came home to happy healthy dogs and a tidy home. She was a great communicator and I felt secure that my boys would be well looked after. Would use her services again.”

Tylee R.

“Shelby did a great job of making our vacation away seamless and enjoyable! Her calm attitude about things really helped ease any stress we had about leaving our fur babies behind, and because of her calm nature, they warmed up to her quickly! We would recommend her to anyone!”

Bonnie L.

“Nate was awesome! Sent us furbaby pics daily and loved them when we couldn’t be there to! We highly recommend and will use his services again!”

About: My earliest memories are of playing with dogs. As an adult I love my kitties and will care for any furry, scaley or feathered friends. Every day I care for my dog and 4 cats. The trip to the nearby park is a routine where I find refuge. I have flexibility with my work schedule and can make most times fit. I have a fenced yard where pets can roam free without fear of antagonism or being set loose in the neighborhood. I give each memeber of the clan daily attention and individual care.

About: I have more than eleven years of experience caring for animals, beginning with my own rabbits when I was eight. Through 4-H I excelled in studying animal health in-depth and gained practical experience working with rabbits, ducks, and other livestock. Not only am I comfortable looking after healthy animals, I'm confident in my ability to care for those that need a little extra attention. I have been walking dogs since I was nine, including labs, purebred pit bulls, and small breeds. I have also cared for my grandparents’ cats throughout my life, and I currently live with a cat in my dorm. Animals have always been a part of my daily life, and I bring patience, responsibility, and genuine care to every friend I look after. I'm currently in school, but taking many online classes. I have a fairly spread out schedule that will allow me to check in on your pets at various points in the day. I'll be in Logan for most of Christmas break, all of Spring break, and all of summer 2026 (save for a weekend here and there). I'm open to looking after your pet in any setting that you need, whether that's spending time with them at your home, going for a walk, or taking your (trained) pet in my car for a longer outing. I love being outside and I've been exploring the trail system in Logan, so I'd be happy to take your pet on an adventure!

“Laura was able to take this assignment at the last minute after a family friend had a change of plans and wasn’t able to stay with my dogs. She was very accommodating and did everything I asked!”

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. From daily walks and playtime to overnight stays and medication administration, I treat every dog like my own. I've cared for senior dogs with special needs, energetic puppies, and everything in between. Whether it's rain or shine, I'm reliable, responsive, and committed to giving your pet the love, attention, and exercise they deserve. I have the privilege to work from home Monday- Friday and can have a flexible schedule to care for peoples dogs and cats. My job allows me the flexibility to adjust my schedule if needed to some degree. ex. extended lunches. I can work remotely from anywhere for overnight stays during the week if needed as long as there is wifi. We have a large fenced in yard for dogs to give them a place to run and play safely. Our house is dog friendly. They are kept in the house and treated like family to create a safe, trusting environment. We have a dog door for dogs to use at their leisure. We treat them like children. They are allowed on the furniture and we love cuddling with all dogs. We don't mind dog fur but try to keep a clean environment for everyone.

“Tamilyn is so wonderful! She was respectful of our home and very attentive to our Ruby. She went above and beyond making sure she was comfortable while we were away. We had great communication with picture updates. I highly recommend her to watch anyone's furbabies! We will definitely be requesting her again!”

About: Hi, I'm Leo! I've been a zookeeper for 6 years and I do wildlife rehab in my off hours. I have some experience as a veterinary technician as well. I specialize in exotic pet care and birds, but have extensive experience with dogs and cats as well. I have always had a passion for all kinds of animal care, and would love to share that passion and enthusiasm with you and your animal companions! I currently work part-time as a zookeeper, so I have lots of time to give your beloved pets. I enjoy spending time with animals under my care and providing enrichment. I cannot care for your pets in my home, but am happy to provide any specialized care or treatments that may be required. I have experience as a veterinary technician and am qualified to administer medications and specialty care.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the depth of my experience with a wide variety of breeds and care needs. I’ve worked with and loved dogs of all kinds, including corgis, labs, retrievers, pomeranians, pointers, greyhounds, doodles, mountain dogs, and more. This range has made me comfortable with different temperaments, energy levels, and routines—whether that’s keeping a high-energy dog engaged or helping a shy dog feel safe. I’ve also fostered 17 kittens, often caring for 2–4 at a time, which has given me hands-on experience with socialization, feeding schedules, litter training, and early behavior needs. In high school, I adopted a senior cat and regularly administered her medications and prescribed fluids, so I’m confident handling senior care and basic medical routines. Overall, I’m patient, responsible, and adaptable—and I tailor my care to each pet, whether they need puppy training basics, extra exercise, or gentle senior support. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, even while I’m a full-time student and work part-time. I plan my classes and work shifts so I still have consistent availability for morning, evening, and weekend care. I’m very organized, so it’s easy for me to build in time for walks, feedings, playtime, check-ins, and any special routines pets need. My schedule is flexible, and I’m reliable about sticking to whatever routine your pet is used to. Whether it’s daily visits, drop-ins between classes, or overnight stays, I make sure each pet gets consistent attention and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, routine, and clear communication. I always follow the pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, medications, and play to keep their environment stable and stress-free. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are secure, and I double-check instructions for things like food amounts, outdoor rules, and any medical needs. I keep the home clean and treat it with respect, and I send regular updates so owners always know how their pets are doing. My goal is to make pets feel comfortable and safe in the space they already know best.

“I had a great feeling about Erin when I read her Rover bio and she exceeded our expectations ! She instantly bonded with our dog, The Dairy Queen. We were so very happy with her service !!!”

About: I’ve had cats my whole life and, my other family has had dogs their whole life. I used to dog sit a couple years ago but had to go to college so I have decent knowledge of dogs, I also used to volunteer at a cat shelter so I know how to deal with all types of cats! I have early classes, Tuesday and Thursday. And I have mid day classes Monday and Wednesday. Friday I am wide open so I can be pretty flexible! My house is just me and another roommate but it is super clean, quiet, in a very nice area, medium size. I love pets so everything here would be safe and prepared for pets to be here.

“Luckily our cats and dog still like us a bit more than Eva, though it's close! She did a great job taking care of them and it showed. Our kitty recently had spay surgery and Eva handled the meds just right. She even made us muffins!”

About: I grew up having dogs and cats around me constantly. When i reached a certain age my mom started having me help her out with the animal and ive been walking, playing, washing etc dogs since i was 13! I am currently a college student and work part time so my days can be different. I will be happy to discuss this when we meet! Being in college I cannot keep dogs or cats with me overnight but I can help you in your home. If you need me to crate them or do anything like that I can!

“So appreciated the good care Eileen gave our two small dogs. Came home to calm and happy dogs - and appreciated the periodic photos!”

“Gabby did a great job of taking care of our sweet little pup and our horses and house while we were away. We messaged her after a last minute cancellation from a sitter and she was over to our home within 30 minutes ready to care for our animals. Our dog has some separation anxiety and Gabby did great at connecting and bonding with our dog and she was very responsive to any and all of her needs. We will definitely be using Gabby again. Thanks Gabby!”
