Amy has taken excellent care of my babies on multiple occasions. She takes them on walks, keeps them happy and safe. They always come home tired and happy. I know that when she takes care of my fur babies they get plenty of love, play and attention. We also adopted a cat, which made traveling a little more complicated, and she made visits to our home to make sure he was ok. We trust her fully with our babies. Thanks Amy!

Pamela and Paul are legit ‘dog people’. They got to know Ollie pretty quickly and confidently helped him ease into a friendship with Marlowe and another client. I received the usual photos of Ollie with a ball or snuggling humans, but was surprised to also receive photos of Ollie playing and snuggling with the other dogs, which was a whole new experience for him! I’m happy to know he was so well taken care of during his time with Pamela, Paul and Marlowe and will reach out again for future boarding!

During July 4th, we planned on going out of town for the weekend. We were impressed with Julie's rover profile and decided to contact her. We were able to meet up with her twice, once so that she could see our dog, and the second time so that Mozzie could check out her place. This was the first time since adopting him over a year ago that were had ever boarded him somewhere, so we were understandably nervous about it, but Julie proved to be a great sitter. She sent us status updates and pictures while we were away, so that we could know what Mozzie was up to. When we came to pick him up, she also helped us with tips and ideas on how to help Mozzie socialize with other dogs. We could definitely tell that Mozzie was in good hands. Definitely recommended!

From beginning until end, the whole process with Aimee was amazing. We had a last minute family emergency and had to fly out the next day. She was very accommodating and made us feel comfortable that Ripley was in good hands. Aimee's home is great. Massive backyard, and lots of area for dogs to run around in. She has a few dogs herself- they were wonderful. Ripley made new friends and we couldn't be happier. Aimee provided daily photos which helped us know Ripley was enjoying herself. She also took Ripley to a park/small creek one day (Ripley loves the water) We highly recommend you trust Aimee to watch your dogs. We definitely will be reaching out in the future.

She was always quick to respond and took great care of Ranjha (she had already read up on his history before we had our meet and greet so she could ask all the right questions!)

I have used 2 other Rover sitters in the past and Laura is by far the best. She communicates well to make sure she understands and is informed on your specific pets needs. She is timely for check-ins and takes great photos. I appreciate her professionalism. She clearly respects our space and home while she is caring for our cat. Our old cat is always happy and well cared for when we return home after Laura has been our sitter.

Matt is fantastic. My dog Ru loves going to his house so much that she sprints to his front door and will not look back for me at all. She has a great time with him and when I pick her up she is happy and tired in the best way. He clearly has a great understanding of dogs and is very professional and communicative. I feel completely confident leaving my girl there and I know she has the absolute best care.

Whether it’s playtime, walks, or feeding, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Why Choose Me? ✔ Patient, attentive, and reliable ✔ Clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment ✔ Regular updates with photos and messages ✔ Genuinely love spending time with animals I work from home, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I also have a friendly dog of my own, so your pup will have a built-in buddy for play and socialization. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to stick closely to your dog’s routine, provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love. Your dog will never be left alone for long and will be treated like part of the family. I care for pets as if they were my own, with safety, trust, and comfort as my top priorities. In my home, pets stay in a clean, calm environment with a fully fenced yard for secure outdoor play and potty breaks. I also have crates available for dogs who are crate-trained or need a quiet, safe space to relax.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I have been pet and house sitting for years, mostly just pitching in for friends who know how eager I am. My childhood dog lived until 16 and was my best friend. I was his primary caretaker, especially in his elder years. I have lived with many animals throughout my life and find caretaking to be something that comes naturally for. As a dog person, I never expected to grow into such a cat lover, but I am a fan of all creatures big and small. My best friend has a dog that I take care of anytime he needs it. He refers to me as her "dog aunt". I have a reasonably sized car and am open to making trips to the park/river, as well as going on walks around your neighborhood or providing whatever other companionship is needed for your animal. I currently work part-time as a Float Therapy Specialist. This keeps me somewhat occupied on the weekends, but I’d still say I have pretty open availability. Weekdays I am available after 1pm when I finish my massage training. I believe pets are like people in that they all have their own personalities and needs. My goal is to create a relationship with your animal so I can best suit their needs.

About: 🐾 What Makes Me the Paw-fect Sitter! Every pet I care for gets treated like my own — spoiled with love, belly rubs, and plenty of playtime! I know each furry friend is unique, so I make sure to match their energy, personality, and routine. 🐕 Puppy Pro: Got a bouncy pup still learning the ropes? I’ve got endless patience (and treats!) for training, socializing, and helping them feel confident. 🦴 Senior Sweethearts: I’m extra gentle with older dogs — giving them slow strolls, cozy naps, and the care they need to feel comfy and loved. 📸 Pup-dates Galore: You’ll never have to wonder how your best friend’s doing — I send fun photo updates and stories from their day! 🏡 Trust & Tail Wags: I treat every home and pet with respect, and I promise to leave behind nothing but happy tails and clean paws. Because when you’re away, your pup deserves a sitter who’s not just responsible — but really loves what they do! 🐶💛 🐕 How Pet Care Fits Into My Routine Caring for pets is a natural part of my everyday life — it’s something I truly enjoy and prioritize. My days are built around making sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. 🌅 Morning: I start the day with walks, breakfast, and playtime for the pups in my care — a happy start sets the tone for everyone! 🕛 Daytime: I schedule check-ins, walks, or drop-in visits around each pet’s specific routine, keeping their day as normal and comfortable as possible. 🌙 Evening: I wind down with dinner, cuddles, and quiet time — making sure every pet feels loved and relaxed before bedtime. 📅 Weekly: I plan my week around my pet clients’ needs — balancing regular bookings, playdates, and time for my own pets so everyone gets the best care and attention. Caring for Pets in My Home When pets stay with me, they become part of the family! I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved from the moment they arrive. 🐾 Daily Routine: I keep their feeding, walking, and playtime schedules consistent with what they’re used to at home. 💕 Attention & Affection: Lots of cuddles, play, and positive attention to make them feel secure and happy. 🛏️ Safe & Cozy Space: Clean sleeping areas, fresh water, and a pet-friendly environment — no cages unless requested. 🚶 Exercise & Enrichment: Regular walks, games, and mental stimulation tailored to their energy level and personality.

Absolutely amazing! Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and she kept me updated with plenty of pictures and videos, which I really appreciated. She truly went above and beyond by making an extra trip to ensure my dog was well taken care of, and that meant so much to me. During the heat wave, she was also very mindful of protecting his paws and making sure he stayed safe and comfortable. It was clear she cared for him like he was her own, and my dog absolutely loved her. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands, and I would trust her with him again without hesitation. I highly recommend her!

Jenna, she went above and beyond her duties as a dog walker. She was very kind to Trevor, who is kennel anxiety dog. That has been in Hanover County animal shelter for way too long so this beautiful vibrant, sweet sweet dog they decided to euthanize so I have been walking him so that he won’t have kennel. Anxiety and Jen was a wonderful part of this. thank you so much and a shout out to Jenna

About: I’ve always been an animal person and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and reptiles, including my own ball python. I grew up with an Australian Shepherd who can be very anxious, so I’m used to being patient with nervous pets and helping them feel safe and comfortable. I’ve pet sat for animals of all different temperaments, including a cat with a more aggressive personality, so I understand the importance of respecting each animal’s boundaries and adapting to their individual needs. I love spending time outdoors and taking walks, and I know the Richmond area well. With two years of professional housekeeping experience, I’m comfortable caring for both pets and homes with the same level of respect and attention to detail I’d want for my own. My goal is to provide dependable care for both your pet and your home, while making sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! I work about 20 hours a week as an esthetician and make my own schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. Because I set my own hours, I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I would love to fit pet care into my routine. I believe every pet is different, so I do my best to follow their normal routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while keeping up with their feeding schedule and any specific instructions you provide. For cats staying in my home, I’ll provide a calm, safe environment where they can settle in at their own pace. Having lived with multiple cats of various personalities, I understand that some cats are social while others prefer their space, and I’m happy to accommodate both! I will stay in regular communication, providing updates and photos so you always know how they’re doing!

About: I am a grad student with a very flexible schedule! I have owned and cared for a range of dog breeds, from cocker spaniels to German shepherds. I even had a Great Dane for several years! No mess is too big! I’ve administered medications and love getting outdoors and would love to walk or drop into your pet! I adore cats and I have an American bobtail cat called Atlas 🐈‍⬛ Don’t have a dog or cat? ! I’ve cared for fish, ducks, pigeons, degus, a parrot and a flying squirrel! My daily routine is incredibly flexible as I am currently working on my PhD! I pick my hours and I can work around any pet sitting/walking needs! I am a gentle person who loves to give pets and go for walks and (if willing) give belly rubs! I look after a very content male cat daily (who follows me around the house).

Conrad stepped in at our late notice and took fantastic care of our two dogs! They were staying with a sitter who could not walk them, and Conrad came to the rescue with walking them for a full hour every day, reliably and on-time! He communicates really well, is really responsible, and clearly has experience with dogs. One of my dogs is also dog-reactive, and Conrad knew just how to manage any reactive signs on walks and keeps distance from other animals. He listens well to instructions and is just a great dude. I’m happily looking to making him our regular go-to pet sitter and walker whenever we need support!

From beginning until end, the whole process with Aimee was amazing. We had a last minute family emergency and had to fly out the next day. She was very accommodating and made us feel comfortable that Ripley was in good hands. Aimee's home is great. Massive backyard, and lots of area for dogs to run around in. She has a few dogs herself- they were wonderful. Ripley made new friends and we couldn't be happier. Aimee provided daily photos which helped us know Ripley was enjoying herself. She also took Ripley to a park/small creek one day (Ripley loves the water) We highly recommend you trust Aimee to watch your dogs. We definitely will be reaching out in the future.

My three and a half year old golden retriever has never been so happy to see me go on a trip! She had a great time with Geraldine and her family. They made her feel welcome right from the start and treated her like a princess throughout the long holiday weekend. She was happy to see me when I got back but, after a few minutes of wiggle butt and some attention, she laid down and decided she was staying. She’s never been that at home anywhere! I’m so grateful, I enjoyed my vacation knowing my little girl was well taken care of.

I so appreciate the time Chip spent with Raye ! She took him on walks and integrated him into the dog pack very thoughtfully. Lots of pictures and videos!

Kristen was an absolute pleasure to work with and did an awesome job at caring for my two dogs while we were on vacation. She was flexible with times for pick up and drop off and gave me daily updates on how the dogs were doing. I'm surprised my dogs would even get in the car to come home since they had such a good time staying at her place! Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a rover sitter for their pet!

Le’Quitta was absolutely wonderful with Honey! From the very beginning, she was thoughtful and communicative. We did a meet-and-greet beforehand, and she even brought one of her dogs to make sure Honey would be comfortable since she can be a little reactive around other dogs. Just before our trip, Honey unexpectedly needed stitches and had to wear a cone while taking medication every 12 hours. Le’Quitta didn’t hesitate—she happily took on the extra care, administered Honey’s medications, and gave us complete peace of mind so we could still enjoy our weekend away. Throughout Honey’s stay, Le’Quitta sent frequent updates and photos, and it was obvious Honey was having the best time playing with the other dogs. She even had her first positive introduction to a cat! Every picture showed a happy, smiling dog who was clearly loved and well cared for. I’m so grateful for Le’Quitta flexibility, communication, and genuine care for Honey. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family.

This was my first experience with Rover and the first time leaving my puppy with anyone other than family. Cheryl was awesome! We had a meet and greet beforehand so I felt very comfortable leaving my baby for a few days. Juliet had a wonderful time and will be excited to return to Camp Cheryl!

Aaren & Jordon were the absolute best!! Our pup is a nervous / shy girlie, but she warmed up to them about immediately!! ❤️ She stayed for a long weekend while we were out of town. Aaren sent us photos and updates the whole time, and went above and beyond taking our girlie on runs / walks all around town!! She has been so sleepy ever since she got home and can tell she had the best time!! Will absolutely be using Aaren and Jordon for all of our upcoming trips. Can’t thank you enough! ❤️❤️

Kira was an absolute dream to work with. I've been on the road with my dog for 10 months straight and have used many sitters across the country and she was by far the most reliable and communicative. My dog almost didn't want to come back home with me! But in all seriousness, Kira was professional and accommodating when I had to shift to an overnight last minute. She's just beginning her journey towards a career working with animals, so she is highly qualified to deal with all types of situations. Cannot recommend highly enough !!

Alexandra watched my kitten, Louis at her home for a couple of nights and was absolutely wonderful! Her dog was also super sweet and got along wonderfully with Louis. Alexandra was very communicative and sent tons of updates and pictures of Louis. I felt completely at ease leaving him in her hands and I would 100% have him stay with Alexandra and her dog again! 😊
