“Kade was SO great with Kelso! This was my first time using Rover and I felt so much better knowing my pup was in good hands. Kade is very communicative, sent lots of pics, and went above and beyond - taking a package in and making sure my pup Kelso has enough water. Definitely recommend!!”

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!

“Sydney was amazing with my sweet dog PJ. I came to Richmond from out of town for a few days and was grateful to coordinate several dog walks with Sydney. PJ is not a city dog, so I was a little hesitant on how best to handle downtown Richmond. Sydney knows the area well as a VCU student, and she was able to find green space and waterfront walks for PJ. She also did well to secure arrangements with me on short notice. I will certainly reach out to her again on my next visit to Richmond. Thanks Sydney!”

“Jeffrey is nothing short of exceptional to work with. Timely communication, reliable and consistent. My dog loves him and he went above and beyond to take care of our pup during a last minute booking while we traveled over the holidays. Highly recommend working with him!”

“Sidney is so wonderful with our sweet pug! We trust her deeply and she is a great communicator and very flexible with our somewhat unpredictable schedules.”

“Ilana did great with our 185 pound Great Dane! She wasn’t fazed at all by his size and she handled him very well. We will be hiring her again for help and a lot of it! Jen”

About: I've had dogs of my own growing up, taking care of them every step of the way until the end. I've also done some dog watching for neighbors before in high school and now in college! I'm looking into doing part-time work during the summer, so I can play around with your pets as much as you'd like me to! As of right now, I am free anytime to care for your dog. Growing up with 2 dogs in my home, We had a cage fence in the beginning when they were little and a fenced backyard so they could do their business or run around. Walking them was always fun as I would jog around with them while they had harnesses on as I watched carefully for cars when crossing the street. This experience was about the same for taking care of other people's pets.

“Maggie is extremely dependable and professional! We appreciate her clear and prompt communication and summaries of her time with our fur baby.”

“Mel was awesome! We were in a scheduling pinch and needed someone to come walk our dog while we were gone. Everything went great! Would definitely book again!”

About: Ive had 5 years of pet experience, with cats, dogs, reactive, skiddish animals you name it. I have been able to administer medicine to animals, whether it be pill pockets, cheese, bread. I have pet sit others animals quite a few, but with my experience as a kennel attendant will do everything in my power to make sure your pet is comfortable and loved while you are away! So with my own cat he does come first, I usually feed him in the morning and at night at 7pm. If I were to take care of your pets I would have no issue checking on them, feeding them, walking them after 2-3pm because that is when my classes in. During the weekends I am completely free unless something comes up. So my own cat he is confined to my room when I am not home, but when I am i let him roam around. I am trying to get him to go on walks as well so he can still be active

“Mary came through in a pinch when I needed a last minute dog walker! I appreciate her quick response to my request and even timed the walk perfectly around the rain so that my guy would go outside! Thank you!”

About: I've always taken care of my dogs growing up. My dog right now requires a very in depth feeding and medication regimen. She is 13 years old and has a special diet with a very timed out schedule for her medications. I also have experience with young dogs/puppies. I have lots of experience with older cats and a little with kittens, but not a ton. I work in food service during the day, so I have tons of time in the afternoon/evening and night to care for your pets! I can also move my schedule around if needed I've had dogs throughout all my life that have had vastly different temperaments, so I know how to care for animals of all kinds.

“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!”

Samantha W.

“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!”

About: I've always loved all animals, dogs and cats alike! I grew up in a household where both were present and well loved and taken care of. This is where I learned that I would always have a passion for giving animals their best lives and making them the happiest they can be. I am very confident that your fur baby will be taken care of and given lotttts of pets and love :) I am currently a part time college student as well as working part time. I like to do Rover requests whenever I have free time! I will pay great attention to detail to make sure that all specificities are accounted for in order to keep all animals safe and well tended to!

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!!
