2. Jonathan T.
“Jonathan was awesome! He was very communicative with me and responsive to my cat's needs (which is just needing pets and head scratches!). Will definitely book again!”
3. Andrew C.
“Andrew has been by far the best dog walker you could ask for. Always going above and beyond. He literally offered to install the portable AC in my house while I was at work and the AC went out. Leaving Richmond is going to be hard but finding anyone better with my dog will be impossible!”
4. Theresa A.
“Theresa was so awesome, reliable, and communicative! I have a senior dog and Theresa was so kind to her and I could tell how happy my baby was in all of the pictures Theresa shared with me. I will definitely be booking with her again and hopefully I can become a long term client of hers. 100% recommend her for any services! You will be calm and confident knowing your baby is in the best hands.”
5. Lee B.
“Lee was fabulous, and I can tell from the photos how much my cat enjoyed her time with him! He went the extra mile by timing a visit to “witness” her food dropping in the auto feeder. Impressive!”
6. Devinder K.
“Devinder is very friendly and makes sure your pet gets the care they need. My dog Sylvester is being left alone in the home for the first time since COVID started and Devinder makes him feel comfortable while I'm away. Devinder is great about sending updates and photos. Definitely booking again!”
7. Lila D.
“Lila did a great job visiting both my big boys during the day. I had phone troubles but we kept in contact and she sent me updates regarding the babies. She is very sweet and will use her in the future!”
8. Kristen C.

9. Shelley C.
“Shelley was very patient with our ever changing travel plans, and sent photos during each visit! The only thing I'd change would be to get a short written summary as well as photos. Thanks again!”
10. Kyle J.
“This was my first time using Rover services. Kyle was fantastic! My pet was well taken care of, my home was just as I left it and the communication from Kyle during my absence was perfect. Not only will I use Rover again; fingers crossed that Kyle will have openings on his schedule for me.”
