“I can’t say enough nice things about Jordan. She jumped in at the very last minute and helped me with my 3 cats when my previous pet sitter had a last minute emergency. She was loving and attentive to my home as well as my cats!! Thank you so much!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs through both long-term and everyday responsibilities, including helping raise my aunt’s dog from puppyhood and regularly caring for my boyfriend’s dog. My responsibilities have included walking, feeding, playtime, maintaining routines, and providing companionship to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care and attention I give to each pet individually. I understand that being away from their owner can be stressful for some animals, so I focus on creating a calm, reassuring, and positive environment where they feel secure and loved. My experience caring for puppies has also taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of paying close attention to behavior, routines, and energy levels. I treat every pet with the same care, compassion, and responsibility I would want for my own animals. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for my own cats. I make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention and playtime throughout the day. I even take my cat on walks, so I’m very attentive to both physical activity and emotional enrichment. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so being patient, observant, and consistent with their routines comes very naturally to me. II believe pets communicate their needs through their behavior and body language, so I always pay close attention to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I respect each pet’s boundaries while also giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and care. In both my home and a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, maintaining their routine, and making sure they don’t feel lonely or stressed while their owner is away.

“This was my first time having someone stay at my house with my pup instead of bringing her somewhere. I completely trust Oli with her, it went well! I look forward to Oli helping my pup again for a wedding in September :)”

“Alex took great care of our two dogs! He sent daily updates and photos. Our dogs really enjoyed their time with him. He left the house clean and tidied up. Very happy with the care our dogs got while we were gone, especially our senior!”

“Erica pet sat for us recently. She provided photos and text updates which was greatly appreciated. I returned home to find my pets calm, healthy and well cared for. I have already booked Erica for another week of pet sitting in the future. I definitely recommend Erica!”

About: My name is Nick and I am a teacher in Chesterfield county looking to use my love for animals as a way to make some extra money over the summer. I have had dogs and cats growing up my whole life and currently have a dog named Bagel and a cat named Friday. I also have lots of experience dog/cat sitting for friends and family over the years ever since I was in high-school. I am a teacher so I won’t be working during the summers so I will have unlimited time during the day/night to take care of your pets and their needs! Once the school year starts I can do weekends and afternoon/nights! I have a lot of energy myself so if your pets love to get exercise/play around I am very up for that. I also try to be very thorough with the pet care instructions and will ask questions/for clarification to ensure I am giving your pet the best care as possible.

“We were so happy to find [Sitter’s Name]! She followed all instructions carefully and asked thoughtful questions when needed, which gave us peace of mind right away. After the first night, we knew our dogs were in great hands and we didn’t have to worry. She was reliable, attentive, and everything we hoped for in a sitter. We were impressed and would absolutely use her again and recommend her to others!”

Veronica E.

“Janet was excellent with our dog. We are thrilled to have found her on Rover because we are always nervous to leave our dog with people. She has decades of experience working with animals and knows every aspect of thier care. She can give meds, she can identify symptoms of health problems before they become an emergency, she understands canine behavior, she can even train dogs using positive reinforcement. My dog absolutely loves her, and we received lots of cute pics during our trip! It was a comfort to know he was in such good hands. We will definitely be hiring Janet again in the future.”

Kate J.

“I can’t say enough good things about Miranda. It’s clear she has a real knack for animals; my two dogs were so happy and well-exercised under her care. She was reliable, on time, and made sure everything ran smoothly. We’ve definitely found our go-to sitter and will be using her from now on!”

Mike M.

“Celeste was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter. She was communicative, thoughtful, and consistently kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear she genuinely cared about my dog, and seeing how happy and comfortable my dog was in her presence meant everything to me. I could tell my dog felt safe, loved, and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely trust Celeste again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Nancy did a wonderful job caring for our home and our three very different dogs while we were away. She was responsible, communicative, and great about checking in whenever she had questions. She carefully followed all instructions, and it was clear our dogs were well cared for and comfortable in her care. We came home to happy dogs and a house that was in great shape. We truly appreciated the peace of mind she gave us and would absolutely recommend her to others.”

“Victor was a great companion to Onion - they took to each other right away. Victor was respectful of my place and left it in great condition. Victor is now on my list of pet sitters for the future.”

“I am absolutely blown away by Jakiya and could not recommend her highly enough. She communicated like a pro and took exceptional care of my Finn and Vada! And, my house looked cleaner than when I left! I am already preparing to book her for another sit. My Finn and Vada wouldn’t have it any other way.”

“Alex worked with our one dog who was nervous around him at first. He spent a lot of time at our house with our two dogs while we were on vacation. When we came back our dogs were tired and happy.”
