“We ❤️ Sheri!! She has watched my pup on my long class days for two semesters now and he now knows when we are almost at her house and gets so excited! It’s so nice knowing he is somewhere that he loves and gets lots of walks and snuggles when I can’t be there!”

“Lovely folks who understand dogs well. My dog was well cared for; she enjoyed playing outside & taking it easy inside, where she was allowed to be herself.”

“This was our first time leaving our 1-year-old dog with someone outside of the family since we got him. Katelynn was awesome with Zeus and was great with him from the very start! He typically is very scared of new people and refuses to leave our side but she made him feel comfortable and safe from the start! She kept us up to date throughout the day which made us feel safe. We will definitely have Zeus stay with her next time, she was wonderful and I would highly recommend her!”

Alexandra G.

“Danielle and Matt were amazing - so responsive and helpful with our dog despite the last minute ask. They kept us updated about how he was doing throughout the day as well which is always appreciated!”

Emily C.

About: When in the care of my partner and I, pets are enriched and have plenty of opportunity for activity. If your dog enjoys swimming, I can take them to a nearby creek to play. I have a large yard for playing fetch, or just hanging out, and a spunky lab mix that is happy to play tug-o-war. I've always had dogs and cats, and for a short time, pet rats (they're lovely!). I come from a long line of animal lovers and continue that legacy. You can check out my pets’ Instagram at @mystic_whiskers_ I am very attentive to animals and put them at ease so they settle into their home away from home. I have a flexible job that allows me to work from home, so I am flexible with pick-up and drop-off times unless otherwise communicated. I am in RVA most weekends as well. I have a fenced backyard and a dog and 2 cats. The cats have been around other dogs, and Eddy the dog loves other dogs- he has lots of energy to share!

“Sorry for the late review. I've been doing the grandma thing for the past 2 weeks. I am a widow and I live alone many miles from family. My dogs, Margot and Molly, have become my life. When I learned that they were not invited to the party, I almost declined the invitation. Through a trusted friend, I learned about Rover. I took a chance and booked a time with Dawn. WOW! It's like taking your child to kindergarten for the first day and they walk away from you without looking back. I like to think the girls are good judges of character. Well Dawn took their leashes and they walked away from me without looking back They were not the least stressed when I picked them up later. They had play time with other dogs, they had their dinner and they were ready for a good night's sleep when I picked them up. I got updates on where they were and what they were doing. I couldn't be happier than I was with Dawn's care. This experience was a golden buzzer for me.”

“Kat was great! She responded to my last minute request quickly and was in constant communication with me throughout the day. Kat also was very flexible and understanding when I had to go past my original pickup time. I also was returned a very happy and tired puppy! I would absolutely use Kat again.”

Manuel D.

“Chelsea was AMAZING with my anxious pup! She was also very gracious with my unplanned schedule change and accommodated us accordingly. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again.”

About: Hi, I’m Leah – your pups new favorite person! As someone who has previously owned/inherited 3 dogs, I know how hard it is to leave your best friend with anyone that’s not you. That’s why I don’t take this responsibility lightly—your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort come first! I grew up with dogs and have spent my life around wagging tails and unconditional love. Whether your pup loves long walks FULL of sniffs, tug-of-war, or just cuddles on cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel loved and at home. I’ve also cared for reactive dogs in the past—including my own—so I really understand how important it is to create a calm, safe space where they can feel secure. I know every pup is different, and I always lead with patience, empathy, and lots of love. Think of me as your dog’s vacation buddy while you're away💕 I work from home and am mostly always home during the evenings. I don’t have meetings too much so I can take your pup out and about as many times as you’d like. I have an apartment but live right beside a green space. I also love taking pups on car rides so happy to take them on hikes or go to the river!

About: I love animals and dogs tend to be loving towards me. I love hanging out with them. I have had dogs all my life and I miss hanging out with them. I always go on walks and runs and I would look forward to taking them with me! Right now I'm home most of the day and am able to care for animals all of the time I only work 3 days a week away and work from home Thursdays and Fridays so have plenty of time for the dogs. Also have a dog area nearby for them to play I allow dogs on the couches downstairs and allow them to play with my dog who is a small dog. Also I take them out often

About: Puppy sitting for my perfect nephew (Rocky) for the last five years in San Diego inspired me to help others in Richmond now that I call it my home. In college I fostered kittens that were too young to be adopted to help build socialization skills with people. I grew up always having both a dog and cat in the home and can’t wait to rescue someone of my own here soon 😊. I live and work in the Willow Lawn area and love to get out for many walks. I live an active life and love the outdoors. I am happily available for boarding, daycare or walks but currently prefer weekends over weekdays as I work from an office down the road from home. Advance notice to schedule boarding is greatly appreciated to plan ahead with my schedule. It is just me at home with a fenced in spacious backyard and quiet street full of neighborhood fur friends to meet along our walks!

About: I can honestly say that since the day I was born, I have not been without a pet. Growing up around animals was not only a privilege but became something I cherished. Since I was young, I helped care for a wide variety of family pets as well as those of neighbors' and friends' from time to time. My love for animals and my passion for their well-being eventually found me in the world of veterinary medicine in 2009. I became a Licensed Veterinary Technician in 2012, graduating at the top of my class. Because of my experience and education, I have much knowledge and many special skills when it comes to taking care of your loved ones. I am able to take care of youngsters to seniors, pets with special needs and medical conditions as well as those needing medications/treatments. I am also able to perform some grooming tasks such as bathing, expressing anal glands, cleaning ears and giving toe nail trims. I have experience with a wide variety of pets- from dogs and cats to back yard chickens and pocket pets and even farm animals. I know when I have to leave my pets for any stretch of time, it is of the utmost importance for me to have someone I have faith in and trust to spend time with and take care of them in my absence; I would love to be that person for you and your sweet pets. Our pets do so much for us, I can only hope to return the favor. My day revolves around pet care! I have a dog and two cats of my own, so my day starts and ends with them=) My work is such that I am able to easily adjust my schedule based on your pet's needs. I have a boisterous 10 year old hound mix who loves to have friends over =) I also have two cats who tend to make themselves scarce when other pups come to play! I do not have a fenced in yard, but am able to get the pups out frequently for nice long walks (or jogs if your pup likes to run!) I try to stick to your pet's schedule- walks, feeding, medication, etc, as closely as possible so as to reduce any potential anxiety from being separated from their people. Feel free to bring your pet's own blankets/beds/bowls, etc - otherwise, we have all that stuff here too! Your pet will become a part of the family from their stay onward!
