“Matt is fantastic. My dog Ru loves going to his house so much that she sprints to his front door and will not look back for me at all. She has a great time with him and when I pick her up she is happy and tired in the best way. He clearly has a great understanding of dogs and is very professional and communicative. I feel completely confident leaving my girl there and I know she has the absolute best care.”


“This was the first time I ever hired a pet sitter so I was so nervous about taking this step but I’m so glad I found Ayme!! She has made this experience such a positive one and my girl Mia absolutely loved her and her family. After meeting Ayme for the first time Mia literally would run inside her house and not even give me a second look whenever I dropped her off that’s how excited she was to be with Ayme ? I was also very appreciative of the pictures Ayme would send me throughout the day. That really put me at ease too. Mia will definitely be a returning customer!”

“Amy and Kris couldn't have been nicer people. I used their services to watch my beagle for the day while I visited Richmond. Their home was easy on and off the highway making this place ideal for visits. Bitsy spent the day with a few other nice dogs, received some delicious homemade doggy treats and got lots of love and snuggles. Thanks, we will be back again. :)”


“We are very appreciative of Amanda and her husband for taking great care of our boys! Amanda is very communicative, caring and flexible which has been critical for our dog care needs. Can’t wait for our pups’ next stay!”

“Amanda is hands down a five-star sitter! She watched my dog all day and did an incredible job managing her high energy; she really went above and beyond to get all those "zoomies" out, and I picked up a very happy, tired pup. Her communication was also top-notch throughout the day, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. If you’re looking for someone reliable who truly knows how to engage with dogs, I highly recommend booking with Amanda!”

About: Hi my name is Evie! I have a lot of experience working with animals. I have worked with animals in a shelter as well as in a daycare and boarding environment. I am experienced in giving medication. I am also comfortable caring for animals who may have behavior challenges. My priority is making sure your pet is well take care of and receives enrichment!

I typically take a calm approach to taking care of animals. I always make sure the pet is comfortable with me. I am also very attentive and observant towards the pets behavior.
“Pamela and Paul were awesome with Monroe! She is a sensitive dog who felt right at home with a little extra attention. They were flexible with our schedule and accommodating for a late pick up one day. I will definitely use them again- true animal lovers that treat your dog like their own!”

“If I could give her 10 stars I would!!! My Lily had such a great time. I really appreciated the tour of where she would be the dogs she will be around before leaving her. I felt very comfortable with leaving her there. I will absolutely use Nadia again and again ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”

“Abby, had great communication with me while our pup was there. She sent me pics which helped put our minds at ease. What sold me on her was that within 5 minutes of me reaching out with our dogs info and request for care she responded back with her address ready to take him immediately. If we’re ever in the area again we will definitely be using her services!”

“My dog loved going to Cindy’s for day care. I can tell because he always runs into her house when we get there. Cindy was great, sent lots of pics and actually got him to eat his food. Lots of other dogs to play with too. I felt at ease while I was at work knowing that he was taken care of! Look forward to sending him there again.”

“Susan is amazing and made our anxiety-inducing first drop off at doggie day care way easier! Easy communication and planning and she and her dog made mine feel right at home. Loved how many updates and pictures she sent us too! Our dog seemed happy and tired afterwards.”

“Kendra was awesome. I could tell Teddy had a great time because she made sure to send pictures and through updates throughout the day. We greatly appreciated it! We would highly recommend her and will be booking again in the future.”

“Emily did a wonderful job with my dog Majik. She took such thoughtful care of Majik, kept me updated, and made the whole experience easy and stress‑free. I really appreciate her care and attention. I would definitely book with her again.”

“Myrna was fantastic. She has a pool for all the doggies. She sent photos and communited throughout Starbuck's stay. Starbuck had such a great time that when we picked her up she didn't want to leave. We will definitely be using Myrna again!”

“Michelle took good care of my pup. Her dog Milo is a sweetie. She has a nice yard for them to play in and my dog also enjoyed relaxing by her side on the couch.”

Luna felt at home, she went with Nina as if she was familiar with her and she didn’t even look back, great sitter Luna was probably confused as to why we went to get her, she was super calm and happy when we picked her up, we will definitely book Nina Again when we are in town!

We were in town just for the week and needed a sitter during the days for our hound Daisy. Right away Daisy was at home in Nadia and Quincy's dog-centered property. She was well cared for with individualized attention. I never worried about her and she was excited to return each day. The location was in close proximity to VCU, which was perfect for us. Would absolutely bring Daisy back!

Highly recommend. I was visiting Richmond from out of town and was so grateful for the care and consideration Mindy gave me and my fur-baby. Very appreciative for the way she handled my apprehension, as I was a first time Rover user, showing genuine concern and compassion. Her communication before, during and after the appointment was excellent. She went above that to meet me at a coffee shop to sit and chat before picking up and taking my girl for a walk. She sent me pictures during and after the visit too! Thank you, Mindy - I hope you haven't spoiled us!

Can’t recommend Ariel enough! I was in Richmond from out of town for a graduation ceremony and my dog Cricket needed care for the afternoon and evening. Ariel was very communicative and flexible with both pick up and drop off times, and sent me so many cute photos throughout the day. I felt perfectly safe leaving Cricket in her care.

Matt is fantastic. My dog Ru loves going to his house so much that she sprints to his front door and will not look back for me at all. She has a great time with him and when I pick her up she is happy and tired in the best way. He clearly has a great understanding of dogs and is very professional and communicative. I feel completely confident leaving my girl there and I know she has the absolute best care.

I’m so grateful that I found them to take care of my old senior dog. He requires medications, a lot of love and attention and he gets exactly what he needs. I get a very happy pup after a long day at work. I’m looking forward to using Natalie for future bookings as I now trust her to take care of my fur baby.

I had concerns about low fencing which wasn’t a problem. Stacey was able to get a long tie out cable where Mase was able to roam and explore her large yard. She was responsive and sent updates and pictures! Stacey will definitely be seeing Mase again in the near future!
