“Wonderful experience. Emily and Abi took such good care of our CheChe! Communication was excellent and they made sure she had everything she needed to be healthy, happy and comfortable during her week-long stay.”


“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! ❤️❤️”

“We were very pleased with the attention that Shannon and her family gave to Sierra. He is a very senior dog and needs a little extra loving and care. Shannon sent pictures every day and was careful to keep him cool during the hot July 4th weather. Her home is really nice and perfect for a large dog. Sierra really enjoyed Shannon's backyard. He didn't want to come home. We would recommend Shannon to anyone who want's a Rover sitter.”

“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!”

“Laura and her family were great. She sent daily updates, responded quickly, and was able to work with our schedule. Brady looked happy and well cared for. Would definitely board with her again!”

She was incredibly understanding and went above and beyond when our family was unexpectedly stranded on our way back from our vacation.”


“Can’t recommend Angelica enough! She took amazing care of my brand new three-month-old puppy and he definitely loved every minute. She’s super responsive and responsible and was dialed in on every detail, plus sent frequent detailed updates, which I loved. She’ll be my go-to forever!”

“Rachel was an absolute lifesaver! She stepped in at the last minute after our original sitter canceled, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. She was incredibly flexible, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made us feel at ease knowing our pups were in good hands. She also has two dogs of her own, and they got along great with ours, which made the experience even better. Our dogs came home happy and well cared for. We would definitely book with Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

Harley did not show any of her typical anxiety cues and she had a great time at their home and with their sweet dog Marlowe. I highly recommend them as sitters and we look forward to more stays in the future.”

“This was our first Rover experience and Virginia was a perfectly wonderful pet sitter for our cat, Fergus. She came by to meet him ahead of time, sent lots of photos and videos while we were away and, above all, made us feel very comfortable leaving him in her pet-loving hands. We would recommend Virginia highly and hope to find the opportunity to have her help again soon!”


“Audrina took great care of our needy cat giving her several medications, and did great on her first time taking blood sugar and giving insulin! She brought in our packages and let us know if there were problems with the house while we were gone.”


“Damacia did a phenomenal job caring for our cat while we were away. The brief daily posts helped reassure us, and we were really able to enjoy our trip! Our kitty clearly loves Damacia, who seems to have quite a gift with animals. Fantastic!”


“Teresa was excellent with my large, often anxious, cat Sherlock. Upon my return I found a happy Sherlock with none of the usual stress symptoms. Teresa also communicated frequently and sent photos of all the snuggles and other antics Sherlock got up to each day. It was great to see my cat happy while I was away!”

“Le’Yana has twice provided excellent care for our animals. She is communicative and reliable. I would recommend her services to anyone looking for quality petcare!”


“Kayla went above and beyond while watching our pets over Christmas while we were away! She spent time playing with them and cleaned up throw up from one of our kitties so we did not have to worry about it. She followed our many house instructions to a tee. We will definitely use Kayla again and recommend you do the same. 😊”


“Jeff did a great job watching my two cats, making sure they got their food, meds, and lots of snuggle time or just time with some company. He was very responsive, was respectful of all my requests - including a bit of a crazy food/med routine - and I could tell my cats really bonded with him and were happy to see him. It's always such a relief knowing your pets are being well cared for while you're away!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Nadia! She took such amazing care of my dog, Mojo, during his first stay that it completely put my mind at ease. From the moment we met her, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. Mojo had such a great experience that what started as a one time stay has now turned into a regular weekly visit. He gets so excited every time we arrive he truly loves Nadia, and that says everything. It’s such a relief knowing he’s not just being watched, but is actually happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Nadia is reliable, kind, and clearly passionate about what she does. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!”

“William was great with Church and very attentive throughout the day. He made sure Church was comfortable, safe, and well cared for, and I appreciated the communication and updates. It gave me peace of mind knowing Church was in good hands. I would definitely book again and recommend him to others looking for reliable doggy day care.”

“Michelle took good care of my pup. Her dog Milo is a sweetie. She has a nice yard for them to play in and my dog also enjoyed relaxing by her side on the couch.”

About: I only host one family’s pets at a time. I have a dedicated cat bedroom: your cat will enjoy two cat trees and a view of beautiful trees, birds, and sunshine. My yard is fenced in well enough for small to medium dogs. DETAILS: I am a Richmond Public Schools teacher and a musician. A lifelong dog owner, I am the proud mama to rescue pups Bentley and Bo (who is my angel dog in heaven). I also have two charming, funny, and delightful cats — Gwen and Cricket. Because I’m on summer vacation, I have loads of availability to care for your pets, with a focus on daycare and boarding in my home. I live in a two-story, four-bedroom home with a fenced-in backyard near Westover Hills, Redd Elementary School, Lucille Brown, and Chippenham Hospital. We are close to a couple of dog parks, including Barker Field, and within a few miles of the VMFA, with plenty of green spaces to walk and relax in the fresh air. If you like, I’m happy to take your dog to Barker Field, where I will monitor your pup closely for safety. I have a large fenced backyard for safe, frequent potty breaks. Your pup will truly be cared for like my very own. Because I am a teacher, my summers are wide open for long walks, backyard playtime, cuddles on the couch, and plenty of one-on-one attention for your pets throughout the day. During the summer, I spend most of my days at home catching up on spring cleaning, gardening, yardwork, reading, and chatting on the phone. Your pet will have human companionship for most of the day, except for occasional grocery shopping and errands. I love ALL dogs and will treat your sweet one like my own. Dogs are precious to me. Boarding dogs will have non-stop loving, cuddling, and affection. If your dog prefers to sleep alone, I’ve got FOUR bedrooms with lots of comfy hiding places and multiple dog beds scattered throughout my home. My 1/4 acre yard is fenced in well enough for small and medium dogs. Your dog will enjoy hanging out with me while I garden or read on a blanket in the backyard, sniffing all the new smells.
“I feel so lucky that we found Virginia! She took our high energy dog in very last minute and provided her with phenomenal care. Virginia was responsive and sent a ton of pictures throughout her stay, which my partner and I really appreciated. I definitely hope to book with her again in the future!”


About: I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s energetic walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, or sticking to a detailed care schedule, I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and in good hands. I’m currently working fully remote, and I choose my own hours, so I’m available anytime of day. I’m willing to work with you and your pet’s needs to ensure your furry friend remains on their consistent routines. I believe pets are happiest when they can stay in the comfort of their own home and stick to their normal routine. During each visit, I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of potty breaks or a clean litter box, exercise and playtime, and lots of love and attention. I also administer medications if needed, reinforce any routines you’ve established, and keep your home tidy by cleaning up after your pet. After every visit, I’ll send you updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Ms. Paula felt just like home. Like I was leaving my baby with my parents. I was so comfortable and at ease during our visit. My child did not miss me at all and I knew she was in good hands. Haribo is an excellent helper lol. He is equally as sweet as Ms. Paula. I will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Dawn was a true lifesaver when we were in town for my daughter's graduation, and needed help watching our pup who has separation anxiety. She remained flexible throughout our weekend of constantly changing plans. She had great communication and feedback and I always knew that our pup was doing well at her house in her care. Thank you for taking such great care of Enzo, and helping to make graduation weekend a success, Dawn!”


“We are very appreciative of Amanda and her husband for taking great care of our boys! Amanda is very communicative, caring and flexible which has been critical for our dog care needs. Can’t wait for our pups’ next stay!”

About: Hi! I’m here to make being away from your pet feel a little easier. I know how important updates, communication, and consistency are when trusting someone with your furry family member. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable and confident while your pet is in my care. I provide dependable, attentive care tailored to your pet’s personality and routine — whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddle time, slow introductions, medication support, or simply keeping things calm and predictable. I send regular photo updates and communicate clearly so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet like they’re my own and every client relationship like it matters long term, not just for one booking. I've had dogs all my life and am currently a dog mom to my sweet mixed breed. She's been with us for almost 2 years and is a joy to our household. We do not have any other animals, but I did grow up in a veritable zoo (Rabbits, birds, dogs, cats, goats, fish and chickens)! I'm happy to learn and adapt to your needs. I'm a stay at home mom and so my availability is quite flexible. I only ask that your furry baby is friendly with other kids and dogs. Your furry baby will be treated as one of my own. Each dog will join in on family playtime, walks and of course lots of scritch scratches! I'm currently a stay at home mom with both kids in school. I'll have plenty of time to care for your furry baby. I have a dog of my own, so if we are boarding or doing doggy day care, your pup will have a doggy playmate! Every dog is different, so I’d love to hear about your dog’s quirks, routines, and what helps them feel safe and comfortable. I do my best to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I have a fully fenced in back yard and a dog to keep your pup company. I also have elementary aged kids in my home who are very familiar in how to handle dogs. Our dog is fully vaccinated. Our yard is free of pesticides and chemicals.
“Matt is amazing !! I moved to Richmond for work for 13 weeks and he has made my life easier taking care of my 1 year old puppy, Paige. His dog, Cooper is super super sweet. And Paige comes home exhausted from all the fun she has had ! Very grateful for Matt’s help”

“Pamela and Paul were awesome with Monroe! She is a sensitive dog who felt right at home with a little extra attention. They were flexible with our schedule and accommodating for a late pick up one day. I will definitely use them again- true animal lovers that treat your dog like their own!”

“First time ever using the app so I was really nervous about it, but DAMACIA made me feel completely at ease. She listened to all my concerns and how to take care of my sweet boy because he is hard of hearing. She took him on a walk around the neighborhood and Maximus seemed to enjoy it. Now that the walk is over my sweet boy is passed out on the couch probably for the rest of the day. Will definitely be using her services in the near future.”

About: I have experience caring for highly energetic dogs including two of my own as well as experience with many cats, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attentive care. My responsibilities include daily feeding, exercise, playtime, and monitoring their overall health and well being. I'm comfortable following care instructions and providing plenty of attention to help pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for! I bring the same level of dedication and compassion when caring for others animals. I work 7:00 a.m. to anywhere between 11 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. which leaves flexibility to fit your animals scheduled needs, with my days off varying each week. I'm available for overnight house sitting and can provide care before and after work, including feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. On my days off, I have more flexibility for extended visits and one on one time with your pets, please reach out and I can provide my off days for the week! It's my priority to keep your pets on their normal routine and provide dependable care while you're away, along with regular updates for your peace of mind!! I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and treat every pet as if they were my own! I understand that each animal has its own personality, routine, and needs, and how important it is to take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, basic care, or providing companionship, I am dependable, patient, and attentive. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind, knowing their fur family members are in caring and responsible hands!
About: I am very chill and upbeat. I just truly love animals and love caring for them. I’ve grown up around pets my whole life, I’ve never lived without a dog. I’m very very available! I will happily dedicate all my time to your fur baby and give them all the attention they deserve and need. I am very attentive and will follow your routines for your pets with care. I know how important it is for some pets for things to go as usual, and I will be very sure of that.
About: I've never not had animals in my life! I spent my early years on a working farm and have always had a way with animals. Dogs love me (cats, too!) and I them ❤️ I have many years of experience in the veterinary field and know what to do in emergencies. I am currently working part time and my schedule is flexible. I do work away from home for 5-8 hours a day, split shift. I have dogs amd cats but can keep them separate, if necessary. My dogs are dog friendly, although my beagle mix is very bossy (typical!) Dogs will be in the house with my dogs, but they can be separated, if needed. I can crate, if the parents supply the crate. Dogs will be leash walked in the wide front yard but we can also go across the street to the dog park, too!

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 specialize in thoughtful, low-stress care for cats of all personalities—from social and playful to shy and selective. I take the time to understand each cat’s routine, preferences, and boundaries so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I have experience with multi-cat households, administering basic medications, and caring for senior cats who need a little extra patience and attention. I’m highly reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented, and I treat your home and your cat with the same level of care I would expect for my own. You can expect regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your cat is in calm, capable hands. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around visits, ensuring I’m always on time and able to provide consistent, attentive care. I’m intentional about not overbooking so each cat receives the time, attention, and calm presence they deserve. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or a longer visit, I prioritize being fully present and dependable. I focus on maintaining each cat’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. During visits, I handle feeding, fresh water, litter box care, and playtime or companionship based on your cat’s personality. I take the time to understand preferences — whether that’s interactive play, quiet company, or simply respecting their space. I’m attentive to small changes in behavior or appetite and will always communicate anything noteworthy. I also treat your home with care and respect, keeping things clean and consistent. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you always know how your cat is doing.
About: I've had dogs since I was 5 (I'm 36). Cats I never had my own-- although I am getting kittens very soon :) -- but I have pet-sit for 2 cats of a good friends for 9 years whenever he left town.

I have closed weekends per the default availability, but please inquire and I will do my best to make time on weekends as well. I allow them to explore my house supervised in order to feel comfortable and knowledgeable about their surroundings. I have a space in the middle of the house that will be for pet toys / chewing / napping / etc.
About: I’ve had dogs growing up and had to take care of them a lot as well as having experience as a kennel tech over some summers! I’m currently off over the summer while school is out so my availability is very open. I can take care of your pets when ever you need me. I have an apartment that I am more than happy having pets stay in however there is no yard. I am happy to stay with them and house sit.

About: As a child, I had a small dog named Nike! She was the cutest little Shih Tzu. Having her at a young age taught me responsibility first and foremost, but it also taught me how to appreciate and be patient with animals. I have fond memories of walking her around the neighborhood, being sure she had food and plenty of water in her bowls, and running around with her outside! She also got ENDLESS cuddle time. She was my first best friend, and although she’s not here with me in my adult years, I’ve come to love and value ALL animals, from playful cats, to everyday animals like squirrels and birds, lol. I’m a college student, graduating in the fall next year, and I have many breaks where I’m home. When home, I am fully available everyday, anytime to care for pets! I follow instructions EXACTLY as they’re given to me. Special instructions? No problem! Dinner time at 6? Done and done. I’ll be sure your fur baby has plenty of play time and cuddles as well! Rest assured knowing they’re in good hands!
“Lovely young lady, friendly and professional. Walked my 2 girls for a few days while i was recovering from surgery - they were happy and excited to see Shannon and enjoyed their walks!”

About: I have helped care for the family pets since I was age ten. I do not currently have a dog of my own but I have dog sat for family friends by walking, feeding, and playing with the dogs. I currently work full time. But I have off every Tuesday and every other Weekend. I would also be able to assist in evenings as needed as long as I have a heads up so I make sure I leave work at a decent time When training the family pets when I was younger we had them in crates at night, but now they sleep in the bed. I have dog sat for family friends that had a fenced in yard and others that the dogs needed to be walked a few times a day.
About: Ive taken care of many breeds of dogs from various sizes and ages since I can remember. I currently own a puppy and am loving every part of it. I currently work part-time from 5am-9am so I have plenty of time during the rest of the day to take care of your pets whenever! I love taking my dogs on trails and around the neighborhood to make sure they get plenty of exercise and enrichment. This is important to ensure they stay happy!

About: I’ve been dog-sitting for about 5 years now. I’ve mainly taken care of small to medium sized dogs but I’m open to looking after larger dogs as well. I am very reliable and have a lot of energy to keep your dog entertained throughout the day. I love going for walks and and going to dog parks if allowed by the owner. I live in an apartment and it’s dog-friend and the apartment has a dog area where they can relieve themselves. I live in a studio apartment but there’s plenty of open space where your pup can lounge around. I’m very attentive of your dogs needs, so I stay on top of taking them out for walks and making sure their water bowl is kept full and following their feeding schedule. Also open to grooming and showering your dog, especially if they are staying overnight with me. If your pup is energetic and loves to play we will be a great match!!

“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! ❤️❤️”

“We were very pleased with the attention that Shannon and her family gave to Sierra. He is a very senior dog and needs a little extra loving and care. Shannon sent pictures every day and was careful to keep him cool during the hot July 4th weather. Her home is really nice and perfect for a large dog. Sierra really enjoyed Shannon's backyard. He didn't want to come home. We would recommend Shannon to anyone who want's a Rover sitter.”

She was incredibly understanding and went above and beyond when our family was unexpectedly stranded on our way back from our vacation.”

“Rachel was an absolute lifesaver! She stepped in at the last minute after our original sitter canceled, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. She was incredibly flexible, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made us feel at ease knowing our pups were in good hands. She also has two dogs of her own, and they got along great with ours, which made the experience even better. Our dogs came home happy and well cared for. We would definitely book with Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

“Myrna was great with our dog Archie!! She's very experienced with watching dogs and her house seems like a great environment for dogs to have a great time. I'd highly recommend her!”


“This was our first time using Rover and we are so grateful to have found Cyndi! She eased our minds right away by letting us visit for a meet and greet. She has a lovely home with an amazing backyard for our pup to explore. She is quick to respond to messages and gives thorough feedback with lots of photos each day. We could tell our pup was at ease during his stay and have already made another reservation with her. She is a calm presence that will love your pup and make the stay as comfortable as possible. Thank you so much Cyndi!!”

“Sheri was the ABSOLUTE BEST! She has a beautiful family and my dog fell in love with all of them. She did an exceptional job of taking care of my dog and even went the extra mile and cleaned his little eye boogers. Also, she kept me updated with lots of photos which definitely put me at ease. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!”

“Parker came home from his week with Cassandre worn out and happy! Cassandre sent tons of photos of him having a great time going on walks and being comfy at home. I know Cassandre took great care of him while I was away. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and responsible Rover!”

Communication was consistent throughout, and I appreciated the updates and attention to detail. My dog came back happy, well cared for, and in great condition, which says everything. It’s not easy trusting someone with your pet, but they made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dependable and attentive sitter.”
