“Natasha and her family took care of our dogs like they were members of their family. Other places offered our dogs to " let out" every few hours from a shed. Natasha looked after our partially deff and blind senior citizen pug and our ball obsessed boarder collie in their own home. The dogs were always around someone who could play and love on them.”
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful with my 7-month-old large-breed puppy, Buck! She watched him for four days and took such great care of him. She followed all of my instructions carefully, sent frequent photo updates that gave me so much peace of mind, and was thoughtful and communicative throughout his stay. Buck came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious Sarah genuinely loves dogs and takes the time to make sure they’re comfortable and cared for as if they were her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring Rover sitter!”
“Ollie had the best time playing with all the other pups. I always feel confident that he is in the best hands while we are away. His happy goofy face in the pictures and him needing a 3 day nap afterwards cements that he had a great time. Thank you again! See you next time!”
“Paula took excellent care of Luna, and I've never seen Luna take to someone so quickly as she did Paula! Normally when we get back from leaving her, she can't wait to jump in the back of our vehicle to head home-not the case this time! In fact, she acted like she wanted to stay with Paula! Good job, and thank you Paula!”
“This was our first time using Mark and Daniel for our furbabies Sadie and Saul. We received multiple updates and pictures during their stay. They seemed very attentive to our dogs needs. We would highly recommend them for anyone looking for a dog sitter. We will definitely use them again!!”
“Stephen and his family were wonderful caretakers for our two energetic, medium size dogs. They got daily walks, lots of play time, and Stephen even used their commands so they stayed up on their training. Would highly recommend if you're going out of town to book with him. He sent daily updates and numerous photos throughout the trip; we never worried or wondered what they were up to!”
“We absolutely love having Katina be our dogs' boarder. She is so sweet with the animals, sends pictures/videos when we've requested them, and the dogs don't want to leave! Her set up is amazing for all of the animals as well, and the other dogs that come to her house are so nice.”
“Wonderful experience ! Heather and her family were very welcoming and accommodating. They were flexible and extended the stay for our dogs when we needed to stay an extra day. The dogs were very happy and enjoyed playing with her little girls. I will definitely request Heather when we board our pups.”
About: Hi we are Don and Bobbi! We both have grown up around dogs our entire lives and have always been passionate about caring for animals. Between our families, we’ve had many dogs and cats over the years, giving us experience with pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. Today, we have two dogs and a cat of our own and understand the importance of providing pets with love, attention, exercise, and a safe environment. We’ve also pet sat for friends and family and have enjoyed getting to know and care for their pets as if they were our own. We decided to join Rover because we love spending time with animals and thought it would be a fun way to help other pet owners feel confident that their pets are receiving excellent care while they’re away.

“This is the first time I used Rover and left Hercules to be taken care by someone who was not part of the family. He is a senior and very into his ways so I was apprehensive about how he would take it. From the photos Cyndi provides daily I could tell in the first day he was relaxed and really into Cyndi. She took a great care of him and it was great to have daily updates and a place where he does need to share with other dogs. I would highly recommend Cyndi and I will definitely book more stays with her.”
“We had an excellent experience with Amy. Communication was clear, easy drop off and pick up and she sent lots of photos of our dog having a blast with her dogs. We will definitely use her again.”
“This is our second time leaving our two babies with Sheri, and she is amazing! Very communicative and she and her kids were so great with our dogs. Trust her and her kids with our babies and will definitely continue to use her in the future!”
“Highly recommend. Damacia took care of Teddy very well.. Teddy attached to her as a family member. She updated every day with his picture. Thanks Damacia 🥰”
“Rascal had the time of his life with Denise! He loved hanging out with all his new friends! She was so nice, welcoming, and was very responsive to texts and sent updates and pictures! I would definitely book again with her.”
“When I pull up to their house, My dog makes joyful sounds, jumping with joy & excitement because she loves to hang out with Pam, Paul & Marlowe. She’s very happy there.”
“Second time our pups have stayed with Natalie. Very happy with the care she gives our big dogs. She is very friendly, always responds quickly to messages, and is prepared for a quick and easy drop off/pick up. Thank y'all so much!”
“Michelle sent regular updates and photos of my three dogs. She was also flexible during pick up, accommodating an unexpected travel delay. My dogs were well cared for and happy when I picked them up. I would definitely recommend her to others.”
“Jeanette and her family were absolutely wonderful with my pup. I needed a last-minute sitter, and she was so kind and accommodating. I was very nervous about leaving Bailey somewhere other than with family, but Jeanette immediately put me at ease. She kept me updated with plenty of photos and check-ins, which I truly appreciated. Bailey had an amazing time and was happy, tired, and clearly well loved when I picked her up. I would highly recommend Jeanette and her family, they truly made Bailey feel right at home.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful. She sent us daily pictures and updates on Lily. She’s easy to communicate with! She even came and picked up and dropped off our dog at our house that was 30 mins from hers to help us out since we were traveling with 2 kids. 5 stars!”

About: I have interacted, raised and cared for cats my entire life and have experience with all kinds of personalities- from shy and independent to playful and affectionate. I currently have two senior cats, so I wholeheartedly understand the importance of keeping a consistent routine, monitoring their health and behavior, and providing plenty of enrichment to keep them happy and comfortable. I'm patient, attentive, and committed to making every cat feel safe, respected, and well cared for.
“One day I was fine, the next day I started a twelve-day stay in the Critical Care Unit of a major teaching hospital. I contacted Haley—I had never used her before, who stepped into 3-a-day visits to take care of Douglas for the duration of my hospial stay. I reeceived daily reports, but also she communicated with my friends so I could completely concentrate my efforts on healing. I feel she was part of the team that saved my life.”
“Abby does a wonderful job taking care of my two cats when I am away. I highly recommend her if you are in need of someone you can trust to take care of your pets while you are away.”
“Kelly did a great job with our 3 cats while we were away. Since two of them refuse to come out when anyone comes over, she had to do most of the work unseen and unappreciated. Thanks so much, Kelly!”
“Carleen was very helpful and gave us peace of mind while we were away. It meant a lot since this was the longest we have ever been away from our pets. She is great!”

“Alyssa did a great job with our pets while we were on vacation. We have a koi pond, a cat, and three dogs! She came by three times a day to take of our pets. I would definitely ask Alyssa to watch our pets again.”
About: I have been taking care of a farm and many animals on it. Four dogs and 2 teenagers. I have been watching and taking care of animals for a long time and I very much know what they need or like! Pet care fits in my every day life very easily and my teens help me out because they love their animals as much as do! I make sure all animals are comfortable and I will always get to know the animal before doing anything so they are comfortable with me or my kids!!
“This was our first time using Rover. Riley was helpful in explaining how it worked. She watched our cat for several visits for two days. For each visit she sent information on how the visit went. Unfortunately our kitty would run and hide after greeting her so she couldn’t get many pictures. She even went and found him and sat trying to convince him to come out! He ate well during her visits and she was kind to clean up the dirty cat bowls each time! It’s also very comforting knowing Riley has experience working in a vet clinic.”
About: I have experience taking care of dogs and cats, including pets with physical and mental disabilities. I love animals and have lots of energy. I can keep up with, and care for, pets of all personalities! I am available for pet care all day, 7 days a week. I am an artist, so my schedule is very flexible and open to last minute changes. I communicate quickly and keep pet owners updated throughout the day. I will provide pets with the care and attention they need. I love animals and will do everything I can to make them feel comfortable while keeping their routine and helping them get proper exercise.
“Sophia took great care of my two kitties! She was really sweet and easy to get in touch with to set up the visits. While I was gone she sent me great notes and pictures every day. And she didnt make me feel judged for all of my ridiculous cat care requests (like all good crazy cat ladies have). She also went above and beyond to help me with a problem that came up in my apt while I was gone. I came home to a clean apt and happy kitties. I would definitely book her again and recommend you do too!”
About: Hi! I'm Reis, a dependable and active animal lover with both professional and personal pet care experience. I previously worked at a dog boarding facility where I supervised doggie daycare, monitored group play, and helped ensure dogs stayed safe, happy, and well cared for throughout the day. This experience taught me how to work with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and energy levels. In addition to my professional experience, I have provided overnight house-sitting and pet-sitting services, caring for pets in their own homes and maintaining their regular routines while their owners were away. I understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable and secure, and I strive to provide attentive, loving care that gives both pets and owners peace of mind. As someone with an active lifestyle, I enjoy spending time outdoors and can provide plenty of exercise, walks, playtime, and companionship. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a weekend sitter, or just some extra attention during the day, I'll treat them with the same care and respect I would give my own. I currently work a part-time job that allows me to have a lot of flexibility. I am able to work in all of Richmond and surrounding areas as well. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. Through my experience working at a dog daycare facility, overnight house-sitting, and caring for both a senior dog and a young dog of my own, I've learned that every pet has different needs and energy levels. Whether your pet prefers a relaxed walk and extra patience or lots of activity and play, I'll make sure they receive personalized care and feel safe, happy, and loved.
About: What makes me a good sitter you may ask? Well a good sitter is someone who understands that our furry friends are family of course! I take this approach because i’ve grown up around and pet sat pets for much of my life. If you need someone who will care for a pet as if it were their own then you have found your sitter! I currently work full time in IT from home and I’m seeking to fill my additional time with extra opportunities! As long as I have my laptop and wifi I am available! I love to interact with pets of all shapes and sizes. Im very used to dogs and cats so Im happy to play with them as needed to reduce energy as well as crate them for naps , also as necessary. Walks, play time, nap time, feeding are all within my normal care.
About: Cats have always been part of my life — I've had as many as five at once! I understand that cats are independent but still need real attention, enrichment and love while their owners are away. I'm comfortable with shy cats, social cats, multiple cat households, and administering medications if needed. Your cat will get genuine care and plenty of photos so you never have to worry.

My family and I love hanging out at home in our backyard when weather is nice and spending time with our animal crew. Nowadays, I live on three acres with my family including a little schnauzer and a flock of chickens. Your pup will be able to go on long walks and adventures as our neighborhood has lots of trail options! My kids are in school most of the day, and are very responsible and good with all animals.

“I have been taking my dog to daycare with Kelly for almost two months now and couldn't be happier. She has a genuine love for animals, cares for your dog like her own, and provides a flexible schedule.”
“Paula was wonderful! We were visiting from out of town and she took our booking even though it was short notice. Our dog had a great experience and Paula was responsive and kind.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, growing up in a home with multiple pups of all sizes. From feeding and bathing to long walks and playtime, I’ve always been hands-on in making sure they’re happy and well cared for. In addition to dogs, I’ve also raised birds, turtles, and fish, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of animals. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I always aim to make them feel safe, loved, and at home. I currently work from home so I’m able to provide physical comfort and stimulation via petting and playing with toys. We also have a dog park where I can take your pet for off leash running around and fetching. I have experience providing oral medicine for dogs. I allow dogs on furniture and free roaming in the house, but if you have a crate and wish to bring it just let me know. Please provide any instructions on feeding schedule or items.
“Highly recommend! My hounds had a wonderful time! Thanks for the great communication and special attention to the unique needs of both pups. Your willingness to work around my schedule was above and beyond.”
“Vannessa is very reliable and sweet! My puppy loves her. She sends pics/vids throughout the day. Its a bonus that she lives 5mins from me. Grateful to have found her as I wasn’t expecting to get Ace so soon. So thank you very much for all you do, it is more than appreciated!”

“Zadie enjoyed her day stay at Andreea's today. The shady back yard was a perfect exercise spot in this hot, muggy Richmond weather. Andreea let me know via message that Zadie wasn't so interested in her food, which she made up for when she returned home! Guess she was having too much fun interacting with Andreea's two pups to think about eating. Smooth booking, arrival and departure.”
“Denise was absolutely awesome. One of the best Rover day cares we have experienced. Would definitely recommend her and if in the area would ask her to stay with our dogs again.”
“Susan is amazing and made our anxiety-inducing first drop off at doggie day care way easier! Easy communication and planning and she and her dog made mine feel right at home. Loved how many updates and pictures she sent us too! Our dog seemed happy and tired afterwards.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all kinds since I was 5 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to care for their dogs and cats of all sizes while they travel or during emergencies. I love spoiling pets whenever I get the chance, and I treat every dog or cat as if they were my own. I do work a hybrid schedule and I’m also able to work from your home as well while sitting. I have plenty of time after or even before that to care for any pet that’s in my care. I’m free and available! I have a fenced in backyard and two other fur babies that will also keep your fur babies company and they have a lot of energy as well. I have enough space within my home to crate your puppies/dogs if needed.
“I’m so grateful for Pamela & Paul. They make every effort to do what is best for my dog (exercise, food, social) and let me know if there’s a concern. My dog is so very happy when she sees we have arrived at their house. She can’t wait to go inside.”

About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and have had hands on experience with small, medium, and large dogs as well as puppies to seniors.

I’m available throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends which allows me to be more flexible in caring for your pets and making sure they receive consistent attention, walks, feeding, and playtime. When caring for pets I prioritize keeping their normal routines to reduce stress. I follow feeding schedules closely, provide walks and playtime based on their energy levels.

About: Hi! I'm Heather — a lifelong animal lover who has rarely spent a single day without a dog by my side. I've been caring for dogs my entire life and currently share my home with four dogs of my own — a 9lb Chihuahua, a 9lb Yorkie-Chi mix, a 50lb Lab mix, and a 75lb Red Retriever — plus a cat and some fish. Safe to say animals are my life! After losing a beloved dog who was poorly cared for at a kennel, I became passionate about providing the kind of attentive, loving care that every pet deserves.

Your pet will never feel like an afterthought — they'll get my full attention during every visit. When I visit your home I treat it with the same respect and care I would want someone to show mine. I follow your instructions exactly — feeding schedules, medications, special routines, off-limit areas — nothing is too detailed. I grew up understanding that pets are family members, not just animals, and that the trust you place in someone entering your home is significant. I take that seriously every single time. You'll always receive photos and updates during every visit so you know your baby is happy and well cared for.

I'm responsible, reliable, and always put the needs of the pets first, making sure they're safe, happy, and well-cared for while you're away! I am available to provide care for any furry friend at any moment. No matter they need, I’m always available to treat your animal, as if they were my own. I treat pets just like family. they are family to me and deserve to be treated with passion and integrity. Their emotions are stronger than the average person.

“Natasha and her family took care of our dogs like they were members of their family. Other places offered our dogs to " let out" every few hours from a shed. Natasha looked after our partially deff and blind senior citizen pug and our ball obsessed boarder collie in their own home. The dogs were always around someone who could play and love on them.”
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful with my 7-month-old large-breed puppy, Buck! She watched him for four days and took such great care of him. She followed all of my instructions carefully, sent frequent photo updates that gave me so much peace of mind, and was thoughtful and communicative throughout his stay. Buck came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious Sarah genuinely loves dogs and takes the time to make sure they’re comfortable and cared for as if they were her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring Rover sitter!”
“Ollie had the best time playing with all the other pups. I always feel confident that he is in the best hands while we are away. His happy goofy face in the pictures and him needing a 3 day nap afterwards cements that he had a great time. Thank you again! See you next time!”
“Paula took excellent care of Luna, and I've never seen Luna take to someone so quickly as she did Paula! Normally when we get back from leaving her, she can't wait to jump in the back of our vehicle to head home-not the case this time! In fact, she acted like she wanted to stay with Paula! Good job, and thank you Paula!”
“This was our first time using Mark and Daniel for our furbabies Sadie and Saul. We received multiple updates and pictures during their stay. They seemed very attentive to our dogs needs. We would highly recommend them for anyone looking for a dog sitter. We will definitely use them again!!”
“Stephen and his family were wonderful caretakers for our two energetic, medium size dogs. They got daily walks, lots of play time, and Stephen even used their commands so they stayed up on their training. Would highly recommend if you're going out of town to book with him. He sent daily updates and numerous photos throughout the trip; we never worried or wondered what they were up to!”
“Wonderful experience ! Heather and her family were very welcoming and accommodating. They were flexible and extended the stay for our dogs when we needed to stay an extra day. The dogs were very happy and enjoyed playing with her little girls. I will definitely request Heather when we board our pups.”
About: Hi we are Don and Bobbi! We both have grown up around dogs our entire lives and have always been passionate about caring for animals. Between our families, we’ve had many dogs and cats over the years, giving us experience with pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. Today, we have two dogs and a cat of our own and understand the importance of providing pets with love, attention, exercise, and a safe environment. We’ve also pet sat for friends and family and have enjoyed getting to know and care for their pets as if they were our own. We decided to join Rover because we love spending time with animals and thought it would be a fun way to help other pet owners feel confident that their pets are receiving excellent care while they’re away. We understand our profile is new with no reviews but we promise to provide exceptional care and hope to show that through reviews as we get settled on this app! Bobbi works from home Monday-Friday and Don works from home Monday and Friday. Someone will always be home to care for your animals! Our flexible schedules allow pet care to be a priority. We have a massive yard for the dogs to run around and are constantly going on leashed walks near our house. Our house is their house and we are happy to play with your pup as much as they need!
“This is the first time I used Rover and left Hercules to be taken care by someone who was not part of the family. He is a senior and very into his ways so I was apprehensive about how he would take it. From the photos Cyndi provides daily I could tell in the first day he was relaxed and really into Cyndi. She took a great care of him and it was great to have daily updates and a place where he does need to share with other dogs. I would highly recommend Cyndi and I will definitely book more stays with her.”
“This is our second time leaving our two babies with Sheri, and she is amazing! Very communicative and she and her kids were so great with our dogs. Trust her and her kids with our babies and will definitely continue to use her in the future!”
“Rascal had the time of his life with Denise! He loved hanging out with all his new friends! She was so nice, welcoming, and was very responsive to texts and sent updates and pictures! I would definitely book again with her.”
“Second time our pups have stayed with Natalie. Very happy with the care she gives our big dogs. She is very friendly, always responds quickly to messages, and is prepared for a quick and easy drop off/pick up. Thank y'all so much!”
“Michelle sent regular updates and photos of my three dogs. She was also flexible during pick up, accommodating an unexpected travel delay. My dogs were well cared for and happy when I picked them up. I would definitely recommend her to others.”
“Jeanette and her family were absolutely wonderful with my pup. I needed a last-minute sitter, and she was so kind and accommodating. I was very nervous about leaving Bailey somewhere other than with family, but Jeanette immediately put me at ease. She kept me updated with plenty of photos and check-ins, which I truly appreciated. Bailey had an amazing time and was happy, tired, and clearly well loved when I picked her up. I would highly recommend Jeanette and her family, they truly made Bailey feel right at home.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful. She sent us daily pictures and updates on Lily. She’s easy to communicate with! She even came and picked up and dropped off our dog at our house that was 30 mins from hers to help us out since we were traveling with 2 kids. 5 stars!”
“Radka, James, and their boys are amazing!!! We got tons of photos throughout her stay and it looked like our dog was having more fun than we were. Our dog was well cared for and was immediately a part of their family. Without a doubt we will use them again for our travels.”
“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. 😊”
“Matt is everything you want in a dog sitter! He provides consistent updates with the best pics, responds quickly, and most importantly treats your dog like one of his own! We use him whenever he’s available and highly recommend him.”
“Our dog, Luna, LOVED her stay with Laura and her family! They made sure to understand all her needs so that she (and we) felt comfortable. While we were gone we received photos and videos of Luna enjoying her stay. It’s peace of mind to find a place where our pup was so happy while we were gone. We will be back!”
