House Sitting Rivercrest

“Juan was ABSOUTLEY amazing! He went above and beyond to make sure my nephew Apollo’s was comfortable and loved. He also went even further resetting the whole house (cleaning dishes, comforter, etc.)! When ever Apollo is in VA I will always make sure I check if Juan is available first before looking for other sitters. Juan’s communication was also stellar! Sending pictures and constant contact which helped my anxiety tremendously. He followed my provided guide with flying colors and when Apollo got a little sick helped him back to perfect stool! Thank you so much Juan we really appreciate your care for animals and your attention to detail!”

“Sarah was absolutely wonderful—we couldn’t have asked for a better dog and house sitter. She stayed with our two miniature schnauzers for four days and took exceptional care of both the dogs and our home. We’ve had some not-so-great experiences with Rover in the past, so we were honestly a bit hesitant going in—but Sarah immediately put us at ease. She was communicative, responsible, and clearly cared about our dogs as if they were her own. We came home to two very happy pups and a house that was just as we left it. Truly a seamless experience from start to finish. 10/10—we will absolutely be using her again for all of our pet sitting needs!”

“Megan was great! She asked lots of thoughtful questions, communicated well before and during her sitting, had a meet and greet and was so kind to our anxious dog, Stax.”

“Anya did a great job sitting our dog Muchlee. This was our first timing leaving her in a while and Anya kept us updated. She also took great care of our apartment and left it absolutely spotless.”

“Erica was fantastic with our very nervous dog. She was thorough and kind, gave helpful updates, and we came home to a happy pup. Highly recommend.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since before I can remember. I grew up fostering animals and have been on Rover for years! I am a former college athlete who simply enjoys the company of a furry friend. I have had lots of experience with all types of dogs, and I will always put your dog's needs first. I am well organized, responsible, caring and alert. I am really just looking to love and care for a dog while keeping good care of your home! I have a car and am able to take your dog to their favorite places! If they want to go on a hike I’d love to go with them, or if they just want to sniff their favorite smells in the neighborhood I’ll make sure they find them. I always put their needs before mine - making sure they’re comfortable and having fun! I am currently looking for my next job (I quit and moved home to dc) so I can provide your pet my full undivided attention! I provide a loving and comforting energy to all. I also understand the anxiety dogs get from being around new people/spaces, so I am very caring.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, hamsters, and fish. I bring patience, attentiveness, and a nurturing approach to every pet I care for. Having loved my own dog, Stella, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your furry family member while you’re away. I’ve cared for large dogs, bully breeds, senior dogs, and puppies, and I’ve volunteered and fostered for animal rescues. I’m happy to provide overnight care and can host small pets (caged or contained) in my home, while offering in-home visits for dogs and cats. My goal is to give more than just food and walks; I provide love, attention, and companionship so every pet feels happy and cared for. I’m currently working part time and have a pretty flexible schedule. Most of my work is remote right now. Weekends are often flexible too. I can't currently take dogs or cats into my own home, but I can care for them out of the comfort of their own home. That might mean petsitting/housesitting, or if your pet is comfortable sleeping alone overnight, I can accommodate their needs with visits instead of sleeping over. As for other pets, I can take those into my home for care, or out of your home.

“Kymberlee was an amazing dog sitter! She sent me updates via the app. Always on time with the potty training. Very kind and thoughtful. Luna loved her. Definitely will book again!”

“Katherine was such a joy to work with! She’s patient, communicative, detail oriented, and so trustworthy. I’m so grateful she watched my boys!”

Haley M.

“Chelsey was incredible! She watched my dog and my parents’ dog while they were in town visiting. Both dogs were very excited to see her!! She gave me updates throughout the evening and both dogs were relaxed and at ease when we arrived home. I know she played with them in the yard and chilled in the house doing just what they needed. I highly recommend Chelsey!”

Amy M.

“Elsbeth was awesome with my pup who has a lot of anxiety, he took to her right away and I came home to a happy boy and house. Elsbeth even stayed extra when I had an emergency. She is awesome!!!”

Brianna J.

“Kayly. Took excellent care of Kenji! We came home to find him as playful as usual, like we never left. Kayly is our only choice for caring for our kitten.”

Ramona J.

“I have a husky that is very outgoing but has a bad case of separation anxiety and Katie knew exactly how to handle it during our house sitting! She was great at depicting his personality and handling him in a situation where a bunch of kids ran up to him to say hi. She kept my place spotless and kept me updated with the perfect amount of cute pictures of my pup! 10/10 would recommend!”

Alyx G.

“Another great experience when Monique comes to take care of Cece and house sit for me! Will definitely be contacting her again for dog/house sitting!”

Ana Carolina H.

“Celeste watched our dog penny for the weekend! She was very kind, responsive, and respectful of our home. Would highly recommend and like to use again :)”

“Raven was an angel for my Lola — I didn’t have to worry at all despite being out of the country. She was proactive, calling our vet when she noticed something that concerned her while I was in another time zone. Very grateful for her dedication, and detailed updates! I’ll be hiring her services again very soon. Highly recommended!”

Caitlin D.

“Rio loved his time with Kathleen! I received regular picture and text updates throughout their time together. Definitely recommend and will rebook in the future!”

Mark B.

“Angela took incredible care of our dog and our home while we were away for the weekend! From start to finish, she was extremely responsive, polite, and completely respectful of our space. She kept us updated throughout the entire stay with detailed check-ins and sent plenty of wonderful photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while away. It was clear our pup was happy, well-loved, and kept right on his routine. We couldn’t have asked for a friendlier or more trustworthy sitter. We’ll definitely be booking Angela again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-tier care for their dog!”
