“Kendra did amazing Niko!! She let us know how he did every single day with a detailed explanation which made me feel super comfortable. She kept my mind at ease. Will forever be going to Kendra ❤️”
“I am more than pleased with the ❤️ and care DAMACIA provided for my 3 months puppy. I would recommend her and we will be going back. Was a little nervous at first, but she reassured me he would be fine even around other Fur Babies.”
“What a great experience, everything was smooth and Lucky is just the best. You can tell how much she cares for animals. 10/10 recommend, she also updates you days with pictures of your pup.”
“Jennifer is just wonderful. She’s communicative, friendly, and most importantly loves my dog and the care she provides for him is evident. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“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!!!!!!”
“Amy took great care of my boy Bruno! I got losts of picture and video updates while I was away, so I never had to worry. My boy came home happy and healthy. We will definitely be bringing him back in the future!”
“Matt was absolutely amazing and so easy to work with. This was our first time spending a weekend away from Kappy, and Matt really put us at ease with constant updates and photos.”
“Elizabeth did a great job with my dog. He came back home happy and tired. She was able to accommodate me on one day's notice and sent some pictures during his stay.”
“I have used Radka and James many times to care for my dog while I’m away. As a retired veterinarian, I can appreciate the great, loving, attentive care they provide. I never worry when my four footed friend is at their home.”
“I have two small kittens that I had to leave for a week. They stayed with Riley all week and looked very content and happy in the pictures I received. Riley’s veterinary experience was also a huge peace of mind. Would recommend to anyone!”
“Caitlyn and Sam were so great with my dog and truly treated him like family! My dog can be a handful so having a sitter who enjoys him as much as I do is very important. I will definitely use them again!”
“Eric is the best! I recently had a sitter cancel 6 hours before drop-off -- I thought my vacation was ruined! I immediately put out a Sunday morning last-minute Rover requests for a sitter, with very low expectations that anyone would even respond, much less accept. Within a few minutes, Eric responded and then accepted. He totally saved my vacation! After that, he was extremely communicative, but even better, he was perfect for my highly energetic doggo. He gave long dauly walks and play sessions. I knew that my dog would love having his Bucky as a 24/7 playmate, but I was very concerned that he has cats, since Sheba had never seen a cat before. Since she has a high prey drive, I thought there could be serious problems. Eric, however, seems to have a natural understanding of pets, and he was able to safely introduce Sheba to his cats, and apparently there were no issues. Also, Eric was highly flexible when my return flight was delayed by a day, and quickly agreed to extend the stay. I couldn't have asked for a better experience from start to finish.”
“Cindy was real good with Hudson and communicated with us while we were gone. She sent pictures of him to us. We will use Cindy again in the future when needed. Thank you Cindy. Jay & Lisa M.”
“Adam was great with Poppy. He’s a gentle soul who clearly loves animals. However, when his kids were there overnight, we learned that Poppy isn’t comfortable with younger kids. Adam made it work for the brief period the kids were around Poppy, but it’s not realistic to need to separate young kids in the home and the visiting dog. Sadly we’re still looking for a sitter.”
“Andrea was wonderful with my little Daisy. She sent pictures each day & gave me updates on how she was doing. I felt very comfortable she was being well cared for. I would definitely use her services again.”
“We just moved to the area and Pamela and Paul watched our anxious dog Harley for 2 weeks while we were on vacation. 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.”
“Vanessa was great! She was very responsive and sent me regular updates, photos, and videos. She was also so kind and flexible when we had to extend our pup's stay due to a family emergency. I highly recommend Vanessa and we will 100% book with her again. Thank you, Vanessa!!!”
“Dawn was so sweet taking care of my puppy! It was my first time leaving him for an extended period of time and Dawn made the whole experience completely stress free! I got pictures and updates 3 times a day and it was evident that Willie was having a great time :) I can’t recommend Dawn highly enough!”

“Michaela is a fantastic sitter! She has dropped in on my cats several times over the past year or so and has been great. She is very flexible as I have had to alter trips at various times. I high recommend.”
“Liz was phenomenal with our three cats! We left for the longest we’ve ever been away from them, and they were in excellent hands. Liz was super responsive, took lots of gorgeous pictures of the cats, and was very friendly. Our cats were all comfortable with her the first time we met, even our older (usually shy) lady. Highly recommend!”
“Katie is responsible, kind, and great at communicating! My cat needs medication daily and Katie was able to get him to take it without any trouble. She did an amazing job taking care of my kitties and I will definitely be booking her services again. I highly recommend her to everyone!”
“Bianca took great care of our cats, dropping in to visit every day. They were happy and both mentally and physically healthy when we got home from an almost 3-week trip. We'll be long-term customers, for sure!”
“Riley, you are a very special person!! You took in our little Chocolate when she was ill and we didn’t know if she would make it. You loved on her and helped her pull through. You offered her a bigger environment should she grow strong enough. You provided updates and pictures for the duration of our extended trip. We are extremely thankful that we found you! ❤️🐈⬛ Thank you so much for all you did for us and our little girl!”
“Lexi went above and beyond. She not only cared for our cat (who loved her!!) but she also saved our home when our water heater exploded and was leaking all over our house. Seriously saved the day!!! 15/10 would recommend and will be booking with her again!!!”
About: I’m a big cat lover and really enjoy getting to know each cat’s personality. Whether they’re playful, shy, or just want quiet company, I’m happy to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I keep litter boxes clean, make sure they’re eating well, and always send cute photo updates.
“Brandi is fantastic. She played with our cat, kept things and liter box clean, and made sure he was fed.. She kept him happy the week we were gone and he wasn’t even angry at us when we got home.”
“Corinne was super communicative, kind, and did a great job checking up on our cat while we were out of town. I’ll definitely consider booking her again. Thanks so much!”
“We had a great experience with Veronica, who helped us with cat and house sitting. She took wonderful care of our two cats, making sure they were fed, comfortable, and given attention while we were away. We also appreciated that the house was well-kept when we returned. Communication was smooth throughout, with regular updates that gave us peace of mind. We would absolutely recommend Veronica to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter, and we look forward to reaching out to her again in the future!”
“Sierra was great! Kind and thoughtful and she showed great care for our cat, Smurgles! Due to Covid we had to reschedule the drop ins and she was extremely flexible and thoughtful towards us. We will definitely be using her for any future pet sitting needs!”
“Lee seemed like he really enjoyed our young cat Oslo’s playful and confident attitude, and Oslo really liked having a new friend to visit him. We felt much better knowing Lee would be there to drop in and check on him over the weekend. Oslo was a happy kitty when we returned. Thank you Lee!”
“Elizabeth was very quick to respond and communicative. I really appreciated her coming by ahead of the visit to meet Bell and get an understanding of where everything was stored.”
“Cynthia was a great sitter! She was very communicative with me and sent me pictures of my cat while she was there. I felt like I didn’t have to worry about him at all when I was away for Christmas! Absolutely will try to rebook with her anytime I have to leave town!”
“Kayla and Demitrius were awesome. They took great care of our four cats over the long holidays. In fact, they really went above and beyond by also feeding a stray cat we've been looking after - they didn't have to do thar but they truly are animal lovers. Our littlest cat is naturally very suspicious but even he had warmed up to them by the end of the holiday. We will definitely reach out to them first every time we need cat sitters.”

“Awesome. My pup loves Amy more than me I feel like. She always comes back happy and clean even after playing all day with the other dogs. Also very flexible with my crazy schedule with pick up and drop off times. Choose Amy!!”
“Gus spent the day with Elizabeth as a trial for an overnight. She was very responsive and sent us great pictures throughout the day. He came home very content. We’re looking forward to his overnight visit next week. Thank you Elizabeth!”
“Lily had a great time. I was sent pictures a few times during her doggie daycare and she was soooo happy 😊. This is the first time she had ever used Rover. I am so glad that it was a pleasant experience for her. I liked that they asked important questions about her health and preferences. There were other pups being cared for as well and it sounded like everyone got along. I would highly recommend Susan and her husband to care for your beloved fur babies.”
“Adam and Beau is a match made in heaven! Beau apparently played it cool during his visit; he had “checked out” Adam’s home on our initial visit and settled in pretty easily during his longer stay.”
“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.”
About: I have a large variety of experience with dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds. I have had a myriad of pet-sitting jobs—for friends, family, and strangers! I also worked as a Veterinary Assistant for years when was younger, so I can work with dogs and cats of all mannerisms and at all stages of their lives. I am completely comfortable medicating or attending to any special needs. I work remotely so I will be home to give your pet all the attention they may need any day of the week. Pet care fits very easily in my routine since I have 2 of my own! I live in a townhome and have a small fenced in yard that is good for potty breaks and some outdoor chilling, but there are also plenty of areas around me to walk the dogs. I have a 5-year-old 65 lb mixed breed dog named Baloo and a floofy orange cat named Bennett, so any dogs staying with me would need to be dog/cat friendly (or at least tolerating). If I come into your home, I am respectful of your space and able to follow instructions well.
“Wonderful experience! My Goldendoodle, Bailey had so much fun. Hanna sent me pictures and a video and gave me updates. She has a large yard for Bailey to run and play. Reasonable fee. Thank you Hanna!”
“Huge thanks to Caroline for making Brownie’s very first day care experience such a positive one! She even picked Brownie up and dropped him off at my location and was flexible when I had to change our time. Thank you Caroline!”
“Bentley really enjoyed his dog sit with Aileen and her family. Everything went well. Kept me informed of how much fun he was having and sent pictures. Will definitely be rebooking in the future.”
“Hugo had a long day-care stay with Ayme - for over a month! Ayme's is his home away from home so it was a no-brainer that that's where Hugo would be while we had our bathrooms remodeled. Hugo enjoyed playing with his doggie friends every day, I think he's bored now. Thanks again, Ayme and Andrew!”
“Matt is responsive and punctual. He goes above and beyond and has updated his house and yard to be the best pup party zone ever! My dog and I are glad we found him.”
“Ashley and her family were wonderful in watching my sweet puppy Banks for the day! I was in desperate need of a last minute sitter and Ashley stepped in to help. This was my first time away from Banks and I was overjoyed that he came home happy and well cared for! I would absolutely hire Ashely again and I am so thankful for such an amazing experience :)”

“Mark took great care of our puppy. He was very quick to respond to my request (it was somewhat short notice) and was a lifesaver. He kept us updated and paid attention to our dogs needs. I highly recommend Mark and will be using him in the future.”
About: (NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS IN RICHMOND!!!) I’ve taken care of my family’s pets my whole life and then 6 years ago I adopted my dog Beau- Frank. He is very high energy and has a lot of behavioral issues and food intolerances but I work with him every day with professional training. I have also cared for many friends and family’s pets and also for people I don’t know. I am very trustworthy and I am confident I could take care of your pet and keep them safe. No dog has as many issues as my dog so I haven’t run into a dog I can’t take care of! I treat the pets I sit for like they’re my own and treat them and the home I’m staying in with respect. I know how hard it can be to trust someone new but with me you have nothing to worry about! Can’t wait to meet your furry loved ones! I have plenty of time dedicated to your fur baby and can give your fur baby attention that you might not be able to give them with your own busy schedule:) I would not be able to care for your fur baby at my home because my dog does not get along with other animals but I would be more than happy to care for your pet at your home! I know the anxiety that can come with a stranger staying at your home but I’m more than happy to do a meet and greet :) I am very detail oriented and have no problem sticking to a schedule. Safety is my #1 concern with your pet!
“Steven has helped us a few times now. He is always extremely responsive, responsible and the dogs love him! (The cats don't talk as much but I'm pretty sure they think he's fine.) We are so grateful to have Steven to help us. He took our oldest dog out for a walk by herself and then came back and got the other, more rambunctious ones!”
“Brandi was so great with my dogs while I was away. She sent me a detailed report about their behaviors while on their walk. I received multiple great pictures of my babies attached to the report and it made me feel so much better while I was away. As someone who is a first time user of Rover, I am so glad to have found someone who is knowledgeable, caring, and willing to help in any way she can. I highly recommend Brandi to anyone who loves their furbabies”
“We’re so excited to have found Sierra, and will use her for lots of walks in the future! She’s been able to be super flexible with my ever changing schedule! My dog penny loves getting to see her while I’m at work, and I love getting the pictures Sierra send of their adventures!”
“Wendy is wonderful with our 4yo furbaby. She visited in advance of the first walk so that our girl could get to know her and run through all the details. Lucy enjoyed every walk with Wendy and gives her a two 🐾 up! Thank you Wendy!”
“Kelly was great with our new shelter dog Mindy. Kelly was prompt to respond to messages and very easy to schedule with. It was clear from our meet and greet that she is a true dog lover! Poor Mindy was terrified on her first day and wouldn't come out of her crate, but on the second day, Kelly was able to coax her out and take her for a walk. Have already re-booked!”
“It's been so wonderful having Ruby walk my pup. I'm very protective over him and she has done a great job putting me at ease. She's always on time and responsive which is a huge deal for me. She handles all his crazy golden energy in stride. Highly recommend her.”
About: Hello! I’m Bianca. I have over 4 years of professional pet care experience, and over 20 years of personal experience loving and caring for animals. I’m comfortable with animals of all age ranges, as well as all kinds of species and breeds. I also have plenty of experience with higher needs animals that require special care, and animals that require medication. If you’re looking for drop-in visits, walks, or an overnight sitter for your pets, I would love to see if I’m a good fit for them! I will try to stick as closely as possible to the routine they are used to, to ensure their comfort as much as I can. My schedule is completely open currently, so I am available to care for your babies at just about any time. I will be more than happy to send plenty of pictures and updates so you can see how they’re doing. I completely understand that our pets are our families, and will do my best to make sure yours are as happy and healthy as possible in my care. Please feel free to reach out to me with anything! I’m happy to discuss pet care, questions, concerns, and anything else. I would like to make this process as stress-free for you and your animal(s) as possible. I hope to hear from you! Pet care is the main thing on my schedule, and my availability is wide open to care for your pet(s) whenever they need pet care. I will of course respect your home and property, and will try to stick as closely to your pet(s) typical schedule as I am able to.
About: Every dog, cat, and critter gets my full attention, patience, and genuinely endless affection. Your pet will be in hands that actually care, not just someone checking a box. I pay keen attention to their needs, wait patiently for pets to trust me, and show up exactly when I say I will. I'm a law student heading into my second year of school and I have flexibility this summer for regular visits or last-minute help. I've spent years caring for dogs and cats for family, friends, and new clients and I'm comfortable with all kinds of personalities. I pay close attention to each animal's cues, take the time to build genuine trust, and am someone you can count on — on time, every time. While I don't have pets of my own right now, I'm surrounded by them constantly and there is honestly nowhere I'd rather be. My schedule is flexible. If it works for you, it works for me. Above all else, I believe communication and timeliness are everything. You'll always hear from me promptly, whether it is confirming a booking, giving an update mid-visit, or letting you know about anything unexpected. No guessing, no chasing me down, just reliable, responsive care you can count on. When I'm in your home, your pet's comfort and routine come first. I follow your instructions closely including feeding schedules, walking routes, any quirks or preferences because familiarity and consistency are what keep animals calm and happy in their parents absence. I treat every home with the same care and respect I'd want shown in my own, and I'm always in close communication so you're never left wondering how things are going. Further, I know that inviting someone new into your home and trusting them with your pets is a big deal, please be assured I'm direct, honest, and an open book.
“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 been working with pets my entire life through volunteering at shelters, pet sitting for family and friends, and owning pets of my own. I am flexible with schedules and rates and will prioritize your pets needs first! I can walk, feed, bathe, and play. I have experience with cats and dogs of all breeds and sizes. Let me know how I can best help you and your pet! I am currently in PA working at the hospital, so my schedule is flexible because my shifts are not always the same. I wake up early and go to bed late, so I can usually find a time that works well for both you and your pet. I can walk, feed, bathe, play with, and give medications as needed. I have experience caring for dogs and cats with special needs as well as medical conditions requiring special diets or scheduled medications. I treat all dogs & cats as if they are my own and I always send regular updates and photos to the pets family.
About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, growing up in a family that always had two dogs. As the eldest, I naturally took on a lot of the responsibility, feeding, walking, bathing, cleaning up, helping with training, and of course giving plenty of love and playtime. Beyond my own pets, I’ve also cared for neighbors’ dogs and cats, always making sure to follow their instructions carefully so each pet feels comfortable and cared for just the way their family would want.😊 Working from home gives me the flexibility to be fully present for your pets throughout the day. I naturally take breaks often, which I love to spend playing, walking, or giving them attention so they feel happy and cared for. Since I can bring my work with me, I’m also able to stay in your home as long as needed; making sure your pets have company, comfort, and consistent care without ever feeling alone. When I care for pets in their own home, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar space. I follow your routines closely so everything feels consistent for them. Since I work from home, I can spend plenty of time with your pets, giving them attention throughout the day. My goal is to treat them like family and make sure they’re happy, relaxed, and never feel alone.
“Alexandra is the best.My dog paced the floor excited when she knew she was on the way. Very friendly and reliable and tolerated my pulling dog. She helped me tremendously on short notice. My GSP Sadie enjoyed her walking adventures. I trust Alexandra with any pet needs and will be using her in the future!”
About: Hi! My name is Laura and I am a recent graduate from Virginia Tech. I have had a life-long passion for taking care of animals and hope to care for yours. Throughout my life I have cared for dogs, cats, reptiles, small mammals, horses, cows, pigs, chickens, and much more! I love all animals, big and small, and am able to watch over your household pets and/or any farm pets. I have had dogs my entire life, currently a proud pup owner of my hyper, loving golden retriever, and I know all the ins and outs of canine care. I provide play-time, grooming, walks/dog park visits, food/water cleaning and replenishment, medical aid, and so much more for your pup(s). I have training experience with puppies, and can handle all temperaments. Elderly dogs hold a special place in my heart so I will ensure their safety and comfortability. No matter the age or size, I would love to care for your four-legged family member! I have a flexible schedule so I will ensure dates/times meet your needs. I provide house visits and walks any day of the week. I also have my own vehicle so reliable transportation is not an issue. I will keep your pet(s) safe at your home and/or outside by keeping them on a leash, crating if necessary or requested, keeping your doors locked at all times, and taking precautions to make sure your pet doesn’t get into anything they are not allowed to have.

“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.”
“I felt so comfortable leaving Checo with this family while we were out of town. He had a great time and we were assured this with pictures that were sent. This is Checo's new home away from home. Thank you!”
“When I roll up to Raye’s house for a drop off, Reggie RUNS not walks to her front door (and doesn’t look back!). 😂 It’s such a comfort knowing he’s beyond thrilled to hang with Raye and knowing he’s in an amazing hands!!”
“Thank you so much for taking great care of my girl! Appreciate the updates, all the pictures and your flexibility for adding a day! Will be happy to book with you again!”

“Dylan was very professional, friendly and attentive. He also went above and beyond and was able to pick up my dog’s prescription from Kroger. I highly recommend his services. Thanks!”
“Laura is great with my dog Banksy. He arrives and leaves with a smile. I always know he is safe with her and he enjoys the freedom to play in her backyard and pal around with her dog. She is always very affectionate towards him. We love Laura!”
“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!”
“We were visiting the area and needed a place for our dog for just one night. I contacted Cheryl a few days beforehand and she responded immediately. Madigan was obviously well cared for and loved (maybe spoiled?!?) in her 24 hours with Cheryl. Madi made friends with sweet Janie and must have played a lot because she went right to sleep on the way home. I would definitely leave my dog with Cheryl again! 😊”
