House Sitting University Of Richmond

“Mikella was great with my pup. He was really apprehensive about a new sitter in the beginning but within a short time she had him comfortable and snoozing in her lap. She sent multiple pics throughout her short stay with Potato, made me feel like he was well taken care of. Definitely would book with her again!”

“Lee was absolutely fantastic, and took great care of our lil girl. He was highly responsive, provided great detailed updates throughout the week, and during the meet-and-greet asked great questions to make sure he knew everything that he needed to know ahead of time. We'll definitely be booking with Lee for our future trips and highly recommend him to others as well.”

“Marissa was kind, communicative, calm, and flexible. My flight home got cancelled and I had to rebook my return trip a day later. Marissa immediately agreed to extend her services when I told her what was going on. When I (finally) made it home, Peaty was happy and well-cared for and my apartment was pristine. Would work with Marissa again in a heartbeat!”

“Emily was great! This was my first experience with Rover and I couldn’t have picked a better person. She was great with my puppy Lola and kept me updated during my whole work trip. She was trustworthy and really just made the whole experience so easy. My Lola was so happy when I got home and looked very well taken care of. Thank you Emily!”

“Mark was incredible…he did overnight stays with our 11 year old blind, deaf pup without any hesitation. He is a great communicator and left the house in perfect condition. As this was a new arrangement, he asked questions to make sure something wasn’t out of the ordinary for our extraordinary pup, which I appreciate as he has truly had only 1 sitter in nearly 11 years! I cannot recommend him enough and we are actively booking out the rest of the year with him!”

“Kira and her family have been taking care of my Sooki for a number of years now, so I trust her immensely. You can tell immediately that Kira loves animals. She is kind, conscientious, and follows directions perfectly. If you have a request she follows up quickly and follows through. Your pet will be well taken care of ! I highly recommend her for all of your pet care needs.”

“Victor was an exceptional guest and a wonderful caretaker for my two dogs. He followed all instructions carefully, maintained great communication while I was away, and most importantly, my dogs absolutely adored him. The house was spotless when I returned! Victor went above and beyond to ensure everything was in order, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets and home were in such capable hands. I would not hesitate to welcome him back again. Highly recommended!”

Cole M.

“We had a great experience with Kaleb. He took excellent care of both our dog and cat, sending regular updates and pictures so we felt at ease while away. He left our home in the same good condition he found it, and most importantly, our pets were happy and well cared for. He’s trustworthy and reliable, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible sitter.”

Gina H.

“Allison is fantastic. She has helped my wife and I with house sitting and our rambunctious golden retriever twice now, and both times she has done a great job. She is extremely professional (arrives on time, follows all instructions, goes above and beyond with extra walks and time spent with our dog, communicates regularly, etc.), and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a house/dog sitter. We will certainly be calling her back for all of our future trips.”

Timothy G.

“Joe was amazing with our dogs! Every day I had updates with photos and videos and overall messages about their day and how they were doing. He was so attentive with them. In the past I have always worried every day I was gone from them and could never enjoy myself on vacation and I did not feel that way when he was watching my babies. I couldn’t recommend him enough and will definitely make him a number one choice when we need a sitter again! Thanks Joe!”

“Blue is thoughtful, thorough, and did an amazing job taking care of our pets and home after we had a sitter situation fall through last minute. Blue was communicative and very sweet with our fur babies (Alaskan malamute and very shy cat). Will definitely be working with Blue again and you should too!”

“Celeste was great with our menagerie of somewhat quirky animals. We were out of cell service for the majority of our booking, but I appreciated coming back to pictures and happy animals. They were respectful if the space. Would definitely recommend and book again!”

“Catherine was truly an angel, and I honestly don’t think we could have asked for a better sitter! She stayed with our two dogs for about a week while we were out of town, and during that time our air conditioning unexpectedly went out for two days. Instead of leaving or making it our problem, she handled everything with so much patience and grace, communicated with us throughout, and stayed with the dogs the entire time to make sure they were comfortable and cared for. She even coordinated with our landlord, who later told us she was the best house sitter/Rover he’d ever met - which says a lot! When we got home, our dogs were so happy, relaxed, and completely themselves. There was zero stress or adjustment period, and honestly, I don’t even think they missed us with Catherine around! 😂 She went so far above and beyond what anyone could reasonably expect, and it’s obvious she genuinely loves the animals she cares for. We would trust her with our home and our pups again in a heartbeat. If you’re considering booking Catherine, do it - you (and your pets) will be incredibly lucky to have her! 🙏🏼”
