Destinee has been a joy to work with. She is very responsive and set up a time to meet with us and learn about our dog. Pete has seemed to really enjoy his time with her. Our experience was great, and we booked walks with her for the rest of the year.

Kayley was fantastic! Gave our boy a good long walk which is his favorite thing. She even cooked some carrots for him since he’s too much a wuss to eat normal or frozen ones lol we will definitely use Kayley again!

Aubrey has dropped in for several walks and she is nothing short of amazing! She goes above and beyond to take care of my dog and leaves detailed updates with pictures after each visit. It is such a relief knowing my dog is in great hands while getting breaks from his crate while I’m at work!

About: I currently have two cats. I’ve had several cats in the past, three dogs, and a turtle. I’m passionate about caring for animals. I’ve also watched several pets, most recently a very cute dog named Lulu and a cat named Mr. Meow. I currently work part time at a coffee shop. I work mostly in the evenings, although my schedule does change from week to week. I don’t work very long hours, so I have plenty of time to check in with pets before and after work. Each pet has individual needs, so it’s important to me to tailor my care to each individual animal. I’m happy to drop by occasionally throughout the day to check in with pets, take them on walks, and ensure they have food and water. I’m also open to sitting overnight.

Laurie is the only person I trust to watch my dog Charlie when I am out of town and he loves her so much! Charlie is an 11 year old Havanese, and Laurie has been his sitter for a few years now. Laurie is responsible, makes sure Charlie gets exercise, and he is so excited whenever he gets to stay with her. Charlie has high anxiety and I know Laurie will always give him the love and attention he requires; I would not leave Charlie with anyone else, we love Laurie!

Victoria is a fabulous pet babysitter! First and foremost, she is responsible. Never missed a scheduled walk or overnight, and on the rare times she had to cancel, she communicated with me ASAP. Victoria is firm with the dogs she cares for to keep them safe while also being warm and loving towards each animal's quirks and preferences. My dog LOVES her. He always came back from overnights relaxed and tired, the perfect combo. Can't recommend her more.

As always, had a great experience with Chloe. My two dogs were happy to see her, and she was able to accommodate their sickness with a couple extra care steps. She's super easy to work with and great with the pets.

I can't say enough good things about Chandler! This was our first time leaving our dog with someone from Rover, he usually stays with family or friends but we decided to bring him with us on our trip to Virginia and thank goodness for Chandler! He had amazing reviews so I knew that he would take good care of Judge. He took him for a walk while we went to the NASCAR race and he sent us pictures and calmed my boyfriend's nerves, as many dog owners know, judge is our child! He was so quick with communication and more then willing to work with our timing! Thanks again Chandler and when we come back to Richmond we will definitely be contacting you! :)

About: I’ve been pet sitting since high school year. I have experience with both cats and dogs as well as bunnies! I am also able to help administer medicine and have experience with bottle feeding and kittens. I’m a current student at VCU with a pretty open schedule! I have a part time job in which I only work 2-3 times a week, with flexible days. I don’t work weekends either. In my care, I have a separate room just for your pet in my apartment. I’m able to follow any instructions you may have(ex: walking, crate, administering meds, etc).
