House Sitting Washington Park

“Emily was great! This was my first experience with Rover and I couldn’t have picked a better person. She was great with my puppy Lola and kept me updated during my whole work trip. She was trustworthy and really just made the whole experience so easy. My Lola was so happy when I got home and looked very well taken care of. Thank you Emily!”

“Marissa was kind, communicative, calm, and flexible. My flight home got cancelled and I had to rebook my return trip a day later. Marissa immediately agreed to extend her services when I told her what was going on. When I (finally) made it home, Peaty was happy and well-cared for and my apartment was pristine. Would work with Marissa again in a heartbeat!”

“Victor was an exceptional guest and a wonderful caretaker for my two dogs. He followed all instructions carefully, maintained great communication while I was away, and most importantly, my dogs absolutely adored him. The house was spotless when I returned! Victor went above and beyond to ensure everything was in order, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets and home were in such capable hands. I would not hesitate to welcome him back again. Highly recommended!”

“Joe was amazing with our dogs! Every day I had updates with photos and videos and overall messages about their day and how they were doing. He was so attentive with them. In the past I have always worried every day I was gone from them and could never enjoy myself on vacation and I did not feel that way when he was watching my babies. I couldn’t recommend him enough and will definitely make him a number one choice when we need a sitter again! Thanks Joe!”

About: I’ve personally have two dogs and one cat, but taken care of many more. Puppies, potty accidents, senior dogs, grouchy cats. I love them all! Looking to gain more professional experience with different animal personalities. I am a former dog foster for the Richmond SPCA and Beagles & Bentleys. My availability is mostly open during the week, and fully open on the weekends. I will work any day of the week but would prefer advance request for weekend. My home has already been made pet friendly and has the space to accommodate 1-2 more pets (depending on size) as I do have two of my own. I like to get a sense of how the pet feels about his / my home to establish their level of comfortability and trust.

“Violet has stayed with our two dogs and cat multiple times and takes great care of them (and our house). She's communicative. sends pictures and updates, allowing us relax and not worry about home while traveling because we know everything is in good hands. We highly recommend Violet!”

“Rosemary is an absolute delight and such a professional! Left our house as she found it (if not cleaner) did a few extra house things and most importantly kept my babies safe, fed and super happy! Loved all the pictures and updates.”

About: I am an animal husbandry professional, specializing in reptile and small mammal care. I have formerly volunteered with the SPCA and dog sat periodically for 10 years— on top of caring for my own pets ! As an animal care professional, I have started every day with routine animal husbandry for a variety of animals; I have cared for mammals, reptiles, and invertebrates for over five years. In my home life, I have lived with cats and dogs. Currently, I only have a cat at home and I keep a feeding and cleaning daily routine. When caring for pets in your home, or walking pets, I aim to provide an enrichment and exercise focused care practice. Enrichment is a fundamental need of all animals and I believe in equally caring for their mental and physical needs. While walking pets, I walk with them at their pace and am happy to implement general training practices such as the focus command. While watching pets for an extended period, I prioritize meeting their needs on their regular routine and frequency/intensity so as not to disrupt their regular behaviors and needs.
