“Jennifer took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She communicated with me every day and sent photos. Before drop off, she called and told me about the environment at her house and asked some questions, which was reassuring. She treated our dog like he was one of her family members. He came home happy and tired, and he made friends with some other pups. We would definitely use Jennifer again as a dogsitter. Thanks!”
“Ciara and her family were amazing! They treated our fur babies like her own and her littles just loved our girls. We felt very at ease dropping them off and picking them up and were very thankful for all the sweet pictures throughout their stay. Thank you Ciara!”
“This was the first time that I used this service. It was the longest my dog has ever been separated from me and he was on a strict diet, so I was extremely selective in choosing a sitter. I appreciated the daily photos and I think my dog was able to adjust well since he is used to humans being with him most of the day. It appears that he learned to get along better with dogs while he was there. The hosts were patient, considerate, flexible and very good with dogs and their parents. I will definitely use them again when I am in the area.”
“Peyton was wonderful - super responsive and agreed to watch my dog VERY last minute. I was anxious about leaving Ember because she typically has separation anxiety but she did great and Peyton sent updates and pictures the entire time I was gone. Great first experience with Rover and Peyton!”
“Cyndi is such a gem. Fred loves his time with Cyndi and it is clear she truly loves dogs. It is so nice to come home from a trip to a happy , relaxed dog that enjoyed his time away as much as we enjoyed ours.”
“I was so impressed with Matt! He sent updates and pics of my pups and they had a wonderful visit with him. We will definitely be booking with him whenever we stay in Richmond.”
“Jesse was so sweet and enthusiastic about watching Ripley on short notice over the Christmas holiday. Lots of walks, attention, and hanging with other hounds…she loved being a part of his pack. 😊”
“Raye is the best! She was very responsive and kept me frequently updated. She took Hugo everywhere, the park, drive in cinema, on a hike. I think now I’ll have to level up my play game. Also, she was pretty flexible, my flight was canceled and that was very helpful.”
“I cant say enough good things about Myrna. She took exceptional care of my senior pup and went above and beyond to make him feel safe, comfortable, and loved during his stay. My dog has some incontinence issues and can be very attached to his people. Myrna was incredibly understanding, accomidating, and patient with his special needs. Thank you!”
“I don't leave reviews so thos means something. Hanna did an amazing job with Skadi. Taking her for walks and playing in the yard even cuddling. It's clear she truly loves the critters. Plus she sent pix and videos and told me what she was doing all along. Greatly appreciate the extra steps. 10/10 will be back.”
“Michaela was absolutely fantastic with Zephyr and it was so clear he had such a great time with her this weekend! During our stay she sent tons of pictures to keep me updated on what Zeph was up to and was very communicative throughout the whole rover process. We met ahead of time during a meet and greet where Zeph got tons of time to get to know his new aunt Michaela and vice versa and it was clear to see how great she was with handling him from the start. We will absolutely be back and are so happy to have met you! Thanks so much for taking such great care of Zephyr!”
“We contacted Kelsi at the last minute to ask if she could watch our dog and she responded immediately with a yes. She asked if there was anything our dog could not have which was very thoughtful. As soon as we got to her house, our dog immediately loved her and started playing with her dog. She sent us pics to show us how much fun she was having. Our dog played so hard, she was exhausted when we picked her up the next day. She has slept all day which means she had a fun time. Definitely will be using again.”
“I am more than pleased with the ❤️ and care DAMACIA provided for my 3 months puppy. I would recommend her and we will be going back. Was a little nervous at first, but she reassured me he would be fine even around other Fur Babies.”
“Susan took great care of our fur baby while we were of town! She gave updates with photos and videos. I appreciate that she suggested a meet and greet first to make sure both she and I along with my dog felt that she’d be a good fit. Overall I’m satisfied with the service I received and plan to board my dog, Simba with her again whenever we’re going out of town! Thank you so much Susan!”
“Second time using Miguel’s services it won’t be the last, it is clear my two pups feel very comfortable around him and his family - the communication while they are with him is top tier, and as someone who last minute changes timeframes for pick up and drop off he is very flexible which I appreciate. I will certainly be using his services again, Thank you Míguel!”
“Panda had a great time with Jennifer and her family. We appreciated the pictures and videos she sent, which showed how well Panda was being cared for. We’re very happy with the experience and hope to have Panda stay there again!”
“Laneise made boarding with her so easy. She was so chill and flexible about drop off and pick up during the hectic holiday and that helped a lot! Our dogs loved being at her house and felt right at home. She has a lot of experience with animals and grooming so that is a huge plus! We are so thankful to have found her and will definitely use her again in the future.”

“Mel was fantastic and went above and beyond to care for our fur babies while we were away for a week. The house was clean and cared for as well, so we did not come back to any pet messes when we returned.”
“Our feline friend, Lot, had a wonderful experience with Jazmine. We came home to a happy cat and clean home. She sent lots of pictures and asked clarifying questions to make sure they got the care they needed. We'd definitely book her again.”
“Alex is so great! He plays with the kitties and send pics and they seem well taken care of and so does the house! I feel so much better knowing Alex is there for the little monsters!”
“Randi went above and beyond to make sure our animals were taken care of. She even voluntarily took home a chick that could not walk and fixed it's leg so it can get around on its own now. She also watered our plants and brought in mail while we were gone. She seems to know a lot about dogs and is a wealth of info on chickens, as well. Some of my chickens were not doing so well and thanks to her advice, they are looking healthier. I'd highly recommend her.”

About: As an animal lovers, I promise to treat your pet like my own. They’ll be in good hands with me for the duration of their stay. My dog has a strict routine as I believe taking care of pers works better with a specific schedule. He wakes up, gets fed, gets taken out, is given treats, among everything else at the same time. Every day. I work from home and that makes it easy to adjust our schedule. My dog gets taken out early in the morning and fed. After he then gets taken back out later that morning. In addition, we spend some time outside in the afternoon during lunch. In the evening, he’s fed and taken back out for a bit. Later at night, he’s taken out once more and given a dental treat before bed time.

About: Hello! I am looking to assist with care of your furry friends!! -Combined pet experience of 30+ years, all ages particularly seniors as well! I worked for veterinary services specializing in boarding care for 8 years through out schooling -Will ensure your home is left in the condition received with minimal housekeeping (will take trash out and clean up any pet accidents they may have due to medical conditions. Additional requests can be discussed with or without additional pricing) -Our commitment is to ensure your pets safety, emotionally and physically as if they are our own -Regular updates will be provided streamlining communication -I choose Rover over other traditional “2nd jobs”, because I want to enjoy the work we do! Looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I have a full-time job, however, remotely!! This allows one person at all times to care for your pets, during most hours! My personal break(s) will be scheduled based on both client and provider agreed upon schedules. For example: after evening pet care, there will be a 2-4 hour provider break for dinner and family time before returning for overnight care. Home has pvc wood vinyl for easy mess clean up. The yard is flat and fully fenced in. Warmer weather will have plastic kiddo pools for dogs to cool off. If your dog weighs more than 85 pounds, I require dogs to be leashed trained and/or with a “no pull” dog harness for the safety of your pet and care taker. Meaning, dogs that continually pull excessively while on leash, will either receive short potty breaks, or only “fenced-in” activities. This will be agreed upon at initial encounter. We understand the need to burn off energy! We want to keep everyone safe while we strive to keep the routine as close to yours as much as possible.

About: I've loved dogs for the longest time and ever since I've had my own, you quickly realize they are more than a pet, they are family. My dog and I will treat your dog just like family during their visit. I succeeded well in training my dog on my own from house training, to off leash, to playing hide and seek, and I understand the important component of upholding and instilling any of your training while you're not present. As of June 30th, I no longer work remotely, but work very close to home. I still will have plenty of time to give your pup comfort and attention throughout the day. I am available most weekdays and weekends, but may become more limited depending on the season. I have 1 dog, a small Yorkshire Terrier who is known as Mr. President because he loves to greet and befriend each pet or person he sees, no matter the size. He is super friendly and playful and would love to be a great friend and playmate with your pup. I can easily crate your dog if needed with one you provide or with one of my own crates or expandale play pens. My yard is open, but there is plenty of space for fun. I enjoy long walks, so if your pup needs to get in multiple miles, I can make that happen. I have a multi level townhome. Dogs are allowed anywhere in the home except for the kitchen. If your dog loves the outdoors, i have a small deck and a small enclosed front balcony they can hang on. There are plenty of toys and puzzles, but you are of course welcome to provide their favorite toy.
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can’t say enough wonderful things about Miguel and his wife! They took amazing care of my fur baby, Church, for the past three days, and the experience was absolutely delightful. From the moment we met, Miguel made sure that Church felt comfortable and safe, even introducing him to their own dog to help them get along. His understanding of dog language, especially with big dogs like mine, is truly impressive. Miguel and his wife are such pleasant, caring people. They kept me informed every step of the way, sending updates and even videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. They’re incredibly accommodating, even fitting us in on short notice, which I really appreciated. Church came back home happy, tired, and clearly well-loved. I could tell he had a great time because he’s been so content and relaxed. I’m beyond grateful for their kindness, professionalism, and the genuine care they showed my dog.

“Jennifer took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She communicated with me every day and sent photos. Before drop off, she called and told me about the environment at her house and asked some questions, which was reassuring. She treated our dog like he was one of her family members. He came home happy and tired, and he made friends with some other pups. We would definitely use Jennifer again as a dogsitter. Thanks!”
“Ciara and her family were amazing! They treated our fur babies like her own and her littles just loved our girls. We felt very at ease dropping them off and picking them up and were very thankful for all the sweet pictures throughout their stay. Thank you Ciara!”
“Peyton was wonderful - super responsive and agreed to watch my dog VERY last minute. I was anxious about leaving Ember because she typically has separation anxiety but she did great and Peyton sent updates and pictures the entire time I was gone. Great first experience with Rover and Peyton!”
“Cyndi is such a gem. Fred loves his time with Cyndi and it is clear she truly loves dogs. It is so nice to come home from a trip to a happy , relaxed dog that enjoyed his time away as much as we enjoyed ours.”
“I was so impressed with Matt! He sent updates and pics of my pups and they had a wonderful visit with him. We will definitely be booking with him whenever we stay in Richmond.”
“Jesse was so sweet and enthusiastic about watching Ripley on short notice over the Christmas holiday. Lots of walks, attention, and hanging with other hounds…she loved being a part of his pack. 😊”
“Raye is the best! She was very responsive and kept me frequently updated. She took Hugo everywhere, the park, drive in cinema, on a hike. I think now I’ll have to level up my play game. Also, she was pretty flexible, my flight was canceled and that was very helpful.”
“I cant say enough good things about Myrna. She took exceptional care of my senior pup and went above and beyond to make him feel safe, comfortable, and loved during his stay. My dog has some incontinence issues and can be very attached to his people. Myrna was incredibly understanding, accomidating, and patient with his special needs. Thank you!”
“I don't leave reviews so thos means something. Hanna did an amazing job with Skadi. Taking her for walks and playing in the yard even cuddling. It's clear she truly loves the critters. Plus she sent pix and videos and told me what she was doing all along. Greatly appreciate the extra steps. 10/10 will be back.”
“We contacted Kelsi at the last minute to ask if she could watch our dog and she responded immediately with a yes. She asked if there was anything our dog could not have which was very thoughtful. As soon as we got to her house, our dog immediately loved her and started playing with her dog. She sent us pics to show us how much fun she was having. Our dog played so hard, she was exhausted when we picked her up the next day. She has slept all day which means she had a fun time. Definitely will be using again.”
“Susan took great care of our fur baby while we were of town! She gave updates with photos and videos. I appreciate that she suggested a meet and greet first to make sure both she and I along with my dog felt that she’d be a good fit. Overall I’m satisfied with the service I received and plan to board my dog, Simba with her again whenever we’re going out of town! Thank you so much Susan!”
“Second time using Miguel’s services it won’t be the last, it is clear my two pups feel very comfortable around him and his family - the communication while they are with him is top tier, and as someone who last minute changes timeframes for pick up and drop off he is very flexible which I appreciate. I will certainly be using his services again, Thank you Míguel!”
“Panda had a great time with Jennifer and her family. We appreciated the pictures and videos she sent, which showed how well Panda was being cared for. We’re very happy with the experience and hope to have Panda stay there again!”
“Laneise made boarding with her so easy. She was so chill and flexible about drop off and pick up during the hectic holiday and that helped a lot! Our dogs loved being at her house and felt right at home. She has a lot of experience with animals and grooming so that is a huge plus! We are so thankful to have found her and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Finally, we know Sushi is in good hands with Victoria when we travel! He falls right on line with the pack. She sends great updates and pictures, is in constant communication with you if necessary, and offers lots of flexibility around drop offs and pick up times. This was Sushi’s second 8+ day stay. There will be more. Top notch!”
“Laura was fantastic with our 10 year old Lab! A tidy, animal friendly home with a big backyard makes for a comfortable stay for furry family members. She was very friendly, flexible, and responsive. She sent great photos and videos. I would highly recommend Laura M.”
“Just had a really wonderful experience with Sheyanna watching Silas for a couple days. Sheyanna is super sweet, kind, responsive and seems to genuinely love animals. She consistently kept me up to date with sweet videos and pictures of Silas. She has a great backyard for my guy to play in and she did a bunch of activities with him! I would definitely book with her again and recommend her to anyone. My guy came home happy and exhausted (which we love!) ☺️💗”
“My dogs are family to me, so I'm always nervous leaving them somewhere new. No worries needed though, Stacey was great! We had a meet and greet to ensure our dogs got along, and I was able to meet her at her home in advance to see where my dogs would be staying. She asked thoughtful questions about my dogs' needs and made sure I had peace of mind while I was on my trip. She has a fully fenced in yard which was great for my younger, high energy dog to run laps around the house and get her energy out. My dogs have a somewhat significant age range - one is 1.5 years old and the other is 8.5, and she was able to cater to both of their activity levels to make sure they had a fulfilling experience. We will definitely work with Stacey again the next time we need dog care!”
