“Michelle always does a great job sitting my dog. I had a last minute trip planned and she was able to accommodate. I even had a delayed trip back home and she was very flexible which I appreciated.”
“Matt took great care of our pups, properly spoiling them for us like we would and kept us updated with great pics. We never worried and were happy the pups had as great a vacation as we did. Top notch!!”
“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!”
“Myrna was great with my little guy! She gave updates the whole time I was away and helped with his anxiety while I was out of town. She made sure he had everything he needed and more! Thank you Myrna!!”
“Julie does a great job taking care of Yuki! Yuki is a better dog when she comes back. Julie is first on our list if we go away. I never worry when she's with Julie, and for Yuki it's a spa weekend. Until next time!”
“Aaren and Jordon are practically family now. This is the second time they have watched my girl and they take the BEST care of her. They love on her, make sure she is getting fresh air, and even take her on outings. I almost hesitated to write this review because I don’t want yall to know how great they are and then start taking all to spots - just kidding! I can’t be selfish! Everyone deserves to feel the peace I feel when my pup stays with them ❤️.”
“I am thrilled to give Jeff a 5-star review for taking care of my furry baby, Happy! Jeff went above and beyond to ensure Happy's happiness and well-being. He sent regular updates, which put my mind at ease, and showed genuine care and compassion for my pet. I'm so grateful to have found Jeff and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter. Thank you, Jeff, for giving Happy the love and attention he deserves!”
“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!”
“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. 😊”
“Excellent dog sitter. We got photos everyday and our miniature schnauzer was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend Cyndi. We will bring our Zoe back for another stay. Thanks SO much , Cyndi ?”
“We had a great first time experience with Amy! She was responsive, communicative and very easy to work with. Our dog had such a great time playing with the other puppies for the weekend! We got tons of pictures from Amy every day which we loved. Will definitely book again!”
“Hilary took care of my dog, Penny, for 10 days. She did an awesome job! I got photo updates every couple days. Penny went on a hike and took a couple trips to the dog park. Hilary was very receptive to any needs Penny had and was very fast to answer questions. I would definitely use her again!”
“Amanda was the greatest puppy sitter while we were out of town for a week. We looked forward to her texts with photos and videos every day. My 2 had a great time with her 2 ❤️ We will definitely have Amanda watch our babies again. Thank you!!”
About: Call me Libby :) Dogs are my absolute passion in life! I was raised in a home with dogs and I’ve been a personal pet owner for over 10 years. I have experience raising and fostering puppies, seniors, and everything in between! I’ve had dogs in hospice care, with special needs, medical issues, etc. I have basic training skills and there are no stairs in my home in case your dog can’t use them. I have a large fenced in yard for play time or sunbathing in a safe and quiet neighborhood. They will be treated as if they are my own and loved on for every minute they are in my care! I run my own business so my work hours are flexible. I never leave the home for more than 4-5 hours at the absolute maximum. My 2 dogs and I go on evening walks everyday (after it’s cooled off in the summer time) and lots of outdoor time in between. My life revolves around my dogs needs so yours will fit in perfectly! I have a large fenced in yard and crates of different sizes if you need or want them to be crated. I have two friendly dogs so your baby will never be alone. My youngest dog will be a loving companion to your pet and make sure they feel like they’re at home. Whether that’s playing or napping, he will fall in love with them instantly!
“Alex is so kind and provides the best care. My 5 year old Aussiedoodle is very nervous around new people and dogs. Alex was so mindful of her needs and helped her settle in quickly to a new place while we were away. She sent photos and updates which made me feel more at ease while on our trip. I will definitely board my dog with her again. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“I was able to enjoy a glorious long weekend because I knew my two dogs were happy and spoiled with Emily. Both my dogs (age 7 & 6) had NEVER been boarded or kenneled before, so I was nervous that they'd be anxious and upset, but they came home absolutely happy and contented after staying with her. She was kind enough to provide twice-daily feedback about their walks, sleep schedule, and general wellbeing, and that helped me relax and enjoy myself. My dogs sleep on the bed at home, and I chose Emily because she was going to be with them at night and because she has so many repeat customers; that tells me all I need to know! Emily is worth her weight in gold. Luka and Teddy had a safe and happy get-away of their own. Thanks so much, Emily!”

“Abby has done drop-in visits for my cats two times now and she's been great! She gives me detailed updates and pictures and communicates proactively if her schedule changes at all, so I never have to worry that my kitties are being taken care of. She's great with my cats and they're always happy and healthy when I return!”
“Danyelle is extraordinary. We booked her for the first time and were so happy with our choice. She cared for our two cats over the Christmas holiday, visiting twice and administering oral medicine that had to be given on a regular schedule. She provided daily updates that were not only informative but fun to read. Highly recommended!”
“Kade did a fantastic job taking care of our cat. We’re so glad they were our cat-sitter! When we returned home, Merton was happy and healthy and had clearly gotten some good love while we were away. :)”

“Emily is the best! My cat is super shy and she had him cuddling within a few days — which is amazing. She kept me very informed and I’m 5k away currently, so I appreciate her so much. She’s sitting for me again and I’m so grateful to have found her.”
“My first experience with Rover and I could not have chosen a better pet sitter! My cat is normally very shy around unfamiliar people- she took to Chynna instantly. The pictures of Luna instantly put me at ease. I will definitely rebook with her next time!!”
“Nick was great! He took great care of our cats, fish, and Guinea pig. It was wonderful receiving pics of our furry family and he even brought the mail in. I would 100% use his services again.”
“Our regular sitter for our cat was unavailable so we booked Cat at the last minute. I am so glad we did! She was so great with our cat and went above and beyond to take care of him while we were away! I get so nervous leaving our pets when we travel and Cat gave me so much peace of mind. It can be hard to find someone to take care of cats on here, so I definitely recommend her!”
“Harlee did a great job caring for our two cats, one of which has some health challenges. Both seemed happy and well cared for when we got home. We would definitely book her again!”

About: Hi there! I’m Jakiya, and I’ve always had a deep love for animals, especially dogs. With years of experience caring for pets of my own, I understand the importance of providing a loving, safe, and fun environment for your furry friends. Whether it's a walk, playtime, or just some cuddle time, I’m here to make sure your dog feels right at home. I look forward to meeting your pup and giving them the best care possible!! I am flexible throughout the week since I do online school so I’m able to find time throughout the day to take care of pets I take great pride in providing a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets, whether in my home or yours. When caring for pets in my home, I ensure they have plenty of space to play, relax, and enjoy themselves, with access to cozy spots for naps and regular potty breaks. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, whether it’s for feeding, walks, or playtime, to ensure they feel at ease and loved. In your home, I make sure to keep everything familiar to your pet while providing them with the same level of attention and care. I’m dedicated to keeping your pet happy, healthy, and content during their time with me
About: When caring for pets in a home, whether it's my own or a client's, I prioritize following the pet's specific routine and needs. This includes adhering to feeding schedules, ensuring fresh water is always available, and adjusting meals for any dietary restrictions. I provide regular exercise and playtime, such as daily walks for dogs or interactive toys for cats, while also keeping the environment safe and pet-proofed. I monitor for signs of illness, administer medications if necessary, and maintain cleanliness, like cleaning litter boxes and brushing fur. Additionally, I offer comfort and affection, creating a calm space for relaxation, especially for pets with separation anxiety, to ensure their well-being. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. I can easily integrate feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddle sessions into my schedule. Whether it's letting pets out for bathroom breaks, refreshing water bowls, or simply being there to offer comfort and companionship, I can provide pets with consistent care and attention all day long. My flexible routine also means I can adapt to each pet's specific needs and make sure they feel safe, loved, and part of the household. When caring for pets, I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a comforting environment. I ensure all spaces are pet-proofed, keep routines consistent, and supervise pets closely to prevent accidents or stress. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, calm space. While in a client's home, I respect their space, follow all care instructions closely, and keep their home secure. I build trust through consistent communication, photo updates, and gentle, attentive care.
About: With 20 years hands-on experience caring for animals, I am your go-to pet sitter and walker that resides in the charming downtown Richmond neighborhood of Church Hill. My passion for animals shines through in every interaction, whether is a playful game of catch or a relaxing cuddle session. Living in Church Hill, I’m intimately familiar with all the local parks, trails and pet-friendly spots in Richmond and the surrounding areas. I’m available to come to you or can host your furry friend. My top-notch’ care includes regular updates including pictures to give you peace of mind and ensuring that your beloved family members are happy and well-cared for while you’re away. When I’m not busy caring for your pets, you can find me playing a game of keep away or snuggled up with my own Cocker Spaniel named Hagrid. We like to explore and travel when we aren’t hosting new friends. Mostly recently, we enjoyed visiting our furry friend Ajax with his family of cats and humans in Vermont. If you’re looking a reliable, compassionate and experienced sitter/walker, please reach out! I’m a business consultant who works from home. I make my own schedule and have flexible hours throughout the week/weekends that makes hosting/sitting or walking easy. I have a fenced in backyard and one friendly cocker spaniel who can keep your baby busy. I can easily crate if that is what you desire, but they can play together through out the day and have multiple outside breaks/walks
“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!”
“Ivana was amazing watching my sweet Milo. She cared for him & he was always excited to go back. Ivana gave me updates and was great with communication. 10/10 would recommend ❤️”
“Highly recommend. I was visiting Richmond from out of town and was so grateful for the care and consideration Mindy gave me and my fur-baby. Very appreciative for the way she handled my apprehension, as I was a first time Rover user, showing genuine concern and compassion. Her communication before, during and after the appointment was excellent. She went above that to meet me at a coffee shop to sit and chat before picking up and taking my girl for a walk. She sent me pictures during and after the visit too! Thank you, Mindy - I hope you haven't spoiled us!”

“Deiandre was great. He was very communicative and gave detailed reports after every walk. It was such a relief knowing my sweet girl was in good hands while I was on a work trip.”
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!!
“Lila was a joy, and the relief I needed in my busy work week! I have never used Rover before, but booked her for a week of walks when I was in a scheduling pinch. She was very reliable, arriving right on time each day, and provided me a fun summary of my dogs’ demeanors...and was always very pleasant (even though I’m sure my puppy was a handful at times!). Thanks so much Lila, I would highly recommend you.”
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.
“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!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and I've never met a dog or cat I didn't love! My childhood dog (Macy, 120lb Leonberger) could be quite the handful on a walk but learning to control such a large dog has definitely helped me with my dog walking experience. I am now a proud cat mom of my beloved Rotisserie and spoil him rotten ♡. I have been pet sitting / dog walking since I was in high school. I have worked in homes with all types of pet situations from new born puppies to homes with seven cats! I really enjoy going on nice long walks to allow dogs to sniff and explore while getting all their energy out! I also love to sit / cuddle / play with dogs in the home or backyard! I am also experienced with reptiles having owned a beautiful bearded dragon, Celeste, for 5 years!
“Chynna took great care of my Junie while I was away. She followed all instructions, sent me lots of photos, and kept me informed on how Junie was doing on their walks. I will definitely be using Chynna again for any dog sitting needs!”
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!
“Nevaeh walks my dogs once a day and it is such a retro know that she is there for them while I am at work. She is an absolute sweetheart and even my more stand offish dogs loves her. Could not recommend met more!”
“Kacey was great! Professional, responsible, and highly communicative. Most importantly, the dogs immediately loved her! Would definitely hire again.”
About: I am a musician, property manager, & ex-software dev who enjoys taking care of animals. One of my favorite experiences was caring for a small farm (dogs, cats, horses, and chickens!) in Kentucky. I love taking dogs on walks around town & to explore the river! I am committed to consistent and clear communication; I place a high value on the professional relationship between house-sitter and host. I love sending daily updates as requested. I don't work during the day, so I can accommodate feedings, med delivery, walks, and playtime all day long! I try to structure my day around the client's schedule, so that the animals don't experience a disruption in their normal routine. I love doing overnight sits for pets in the environment they are most comfortable in — their own home. I find it easy to adapt to a pet’s schedule and routine and I love exploring new places around town via walks!
“I love booking Sydney as a repeat walker for my little dog! She’s been flexible and reliable and I will definitely book her services again in the future. My dog was so excited to see her again!”
“Adora is absolute wonderful with my baby girl. She came through in a pinch for me, put me at ease about the care my dog-child was in, loved on her and got her some sunshine while I was stuck at work. Thank you, Adora!”
“I am travel nurse and it can be hard to find consistent, reliable dog walking and Kayley was exactly that. She was so available and never had any issues. She is communicative and take care of your dog like they they are her own. My dog loved her. I would absolutely recommend Kayley.”

About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for over 3 years and truly love spending time with animals of all kinds! I started my experience working at a pet resort, where I spent 2 years caring for boarding pets. My responsibilities included feeding, walking, administering medications when needed, cleaning, and making sure every pet felt safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners were away. After that, I worked at an animal hospital, where I gained hands-on experience assisting with treatments and caring for pets in a medical setting. This helped me become comfortable recognizing changes in behavior, following detailed care instructions, and working with pets who may be nervous, elderly, or have special needs. I have plenty of time to play with your animal! I usually travel weekends, but will stay depending on the weekend! Happy to stay with your animal I've worked with many dogs with many different conditions! I've done medicine for dogs, as well as cared for all their different needs
“Great hosts! They were very accommodating and had a lovely home for Eddie. I also really appreciated the check in photos and videos to see that my dog was happy and safe. I will definitely book with them again”
“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!”
