“Amanda did an amazing job of taking care of my dog for a week. I have a small dog that recently went blind and Amanda was very well versed in taking care of older dogs and dogs with disabilities. Her house is well set up for taking care of older/disabled dogs and communications with her were always instant. Amanda is also an incredibly nice and personable person in general. I highly recommend Amanda to anyone needing a dog sitter.”

“This was our first time using Rover and I was very apprehensive on using the service; until we met Hilary!! She was so welcoming and accommodating with our dog, not to mention extremely professional. Our dog had a great time, she was well exercised and we will definitely use her in the future. A+++++”

About: I am new to Richmond and looking to explore with my pup, Rubens. He has a lot of energy and loves to play with other dogs. I am comfortable with dogs of all breeds, ages, and energy levels. Would love for my dog to have a play mate during the day. Using Rover to keep a routine and explore Richmond while I look for a full time position. I am currently new to Richmond and in between jobs. I walk my dog anywhere from 5-12x a day from 15-75 minutes (depending on weather, need to get out of the house, etc.). My job right now is to enjoy the outdoors with my dog and yours! Rubens and I welcome all other dogs as family! I live in a first floor apt with a small fenced backyard (only for small dogs). There is a hallway that runs from the front door to the back yard area, which is where Rubens likes to do zoomies or be a watch guard dog for the doors. As far as behaviors, Rubens is allowed on my furniture and has a small basket of toys that he shares. Treats are only during training and water is down at all times. We are pretty flexible, but can also set rules per your request to stay on your schedule/routine.

“Amy was absolutely amazing with my dog. I received lots of updates and pictures of what looked like a great time for my dog. I would leave my dog with Amy again.”

About: Aloha! I’m Will 👋. I’ve been pet sitting and dog walking on and off for the past 5 years, caring for dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Animals are truly my passion, and my main goal is to make sure your paw prince or princess is safe, pampered, and fully cared for whenever you have to step away. Because I focus entirely on on-foot neighborhood walks, personalized house sitting, and drop-in visits, your pet gets 100% of my dedicated time and attention right in the comfort of their own familiar environment. I love keeping pups active with engaging outdoor strolls, and I am equally happy giving plenty of belly rubs and playtime to more relaxed seniors or playful kittens. I understand how hard it is to leave your pets behind, so I always prioritize open communication. You can expect regular photo and text updates from me during every single visit if that’s what you prefer, so you never have to guess how they are doing. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged best friend! 🐾 I am currently pet sitting full-time. My other part-time job is relatively flexible and is only Sunday-Thursday, from 3:30-8:00pm. Otherwise, I have complete control over my calendar. I explicitly designed this schedule to not be away from your fur baby for too long. Whether your pup needs a mid-day energy-busting walk, a morning drop-in, or dedicated overnight company, my schedule is mostly open to fit seamlessly into whatever routine your pet needs to stay happy and comfortable. In My Home & Around the Yard: Since I have a moderately sized, fenced-in yard and my own Bernese Mountain Dog, safety at home is mostly about supervising the fun. I never just let the dogs out back and walk away; I’m always out there watching them play to make sure everyone is sharing toys and getting along safely. Before a new pup ever visits, we’ll do a casual Meet & Greet to make sure our dogs vibe well together. Indoors, I keep my home calm and secure, making sure doors are always locked and any human food or hazards are kept way out of reach. In Your Home & On Walks: If I’m coming to your place, I treat it exactly like I’d want someone to treat mine. I stick strictly to the routine you give me for feeding and care. When we head out for neighborhood walks, I always double-check harnesses and collars before opening the front door to make sure nothing can slip loose. I keep a short, secure grip on the leash and stay entirely focused on the dog—keeping an eye out for hot pavement, heavy traffic, or stray dogs so our walks stay completely stress-free.

“Jerimah, was absolutely wonderful boarding my kitty. She was a great convenience since I needed to board my kitty last minute. Jerimah was very friendly and stayed in touch promptly. I recommended Jerimah and will be requesting her boarding service in the future.”

“My two dogs spent 9 nights with Susan and did great while I was on vacation. She is very accommodating when you have special requests regarding pet care. Her husband, Josh, is active in taking care of the dogs, too, so there is usually someone home most of the time. My dogs came home happy and tired and got to spend time with Susan's dog as well as other dogs she was watching for daycare. She sent pics throughout the time I was away. I highly recommend Susan and Josh for boarding or daycare. Will definitely leave my dogs with them again.”

Lori W.

“Best dog sitter we have ever had. Outstanding daily communication and the friendliest person! We will for sure use her services again and appreciate everything she has done for us and our puppers. Thank you so much!”

Joel B.

“Cindy did a great job with Lola. She sent photos every day and was flexible on pick up and drop off. Lola was clearly happy and relaxed, even though she can get stressed in new places. Highly recommend!”

Tina B.

“Abby did great with our dog. She was professional and kind. Our dog had never been away from us, but Abby sent a pic each day. We would work with her again.”

Derik J.

“Dawn was absolutely amazing. She took great care of our big, fluffy, Luna, who can certainly be exuberant at times! She kept me updated several times a day with great pictures. I would 100 percent use her again!”
