“Oli was wonderful! We have a reactive dog who is nervous meeting new people but she warmed up to Oli quickly. Oli checked in often with photos of the pups and left everything in good order.”


“Emily did a fantastic job as usual! Neko was very relaxed when we got back from our trip and the apartment looked exactly how we left it. I cannot recommend her enough!”



“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!”


“Danielle was amazing. She sent a ton of photos and kept me updated throughout the stay. My dogs loved snuggling with her and were so happy and well cared for. Will definitely use her again!”


“Averi was great with my fur-babies. I have two senior goldens and a cat who is very cautious. I am always nervous about leaving them with a new person, but she was wonderful. She communicated well before and throughout the stay. I came back from a week, with happy healthy animals, and a tidy home. I would definitely recommend her.”


“Brittany lovingly cared for my high-energy Spaniel while I was out of the country. She provided detailed notes about how she was doing and was a clean house guest. I would definitely book her again!”


“Rachel was fantastic with our pets!! She sent numerous pics and was always extremely communicative of her schedule. We’ll definitely be using her again!”


“Meghan was such an amazing sitter for our pup! She was super responsive and communicative throughout her whole stay. I had no worries while we were out of town that our sweet boy was well cared for. She’s the best so if you can have her take care of your pet, do it!”


“overall great always keeping me updated with pics and messages. came home to a spotless apt much cleaner than i had left it lol”


“Mark is extremely caring. He put our minds at ease with many updates along with pictures. Mark went above and beyond. We came home to a very relaxed and happy Cody. Thank you so much Mark! Ann and Kel”


“Elizabeth is so kind and very accommodating for my pup! She did a fantastic job caring for her and followed all my instructions. Highly recommend!”


“Jora was great! Koda is a high energy dog and needs a good amount of physical and mental stimulation to keep her from getting into mischief. When I got home, she was completely relaxed almost like I never left. The house looked like it did when I left for my trip and I got great updates throughout the weekend from Jora on how it was going. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again.”


“Rachel was amazing! She helped with our dogs while we were gone for the weekend, and both dogs (and our cat) loved her and were so excited to see her. She stayed in communication with us the entire weekend and sent great pictures with updates. She followed all the instructions we left. Both dogs have terrible separation anxiety, but they didn’t seem to miss a beat while we were gone. Would definitely recommend!”


“It was a pleasure working with Chelsea. She promptly responds to messages and was wonderful with our pets. She watched Mel and Brody in our home and the home and pups were great when we returned home. Highly recommend her and we will rebook with her if she's available!”


“I can’t recommend Caitlin enough. She house-sat and cared for my dog, Dusty, while I was away, and everything was flawless from start to finish. She’s incredibly professional, sent regular photo and video updates (which gave me so much peace of mind), and I came home to a happy pup and a spotless home. Not only is she amazing with animals, but I’ve also worked with her before—so I already knew she was reliable, detail-oriented, and just a genuinely good human. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets and your home with the utmost responsibility, Caitlin is it.”


“Seline took great care of our two dogs!”


“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Kenza was absolutely amazing! From the very beginning, they were incredibly communicative and professional, making sure I felt at ease while I was away. What really stood out, though, was how loving and attentive they were to my girls—you can tell Kenza genuinely cares about the pets they look after. I came home to happy, relaxed pups and couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again! 🐾💕”


“Sarah took great care of my pup Charlie when I was out of town. She communicated well and Charlie seemed very comfortable and happy the entire time!”


“Audrey was fantastic and took great care of our dog! Sent lots of pictures with my doggo looking super happy and was a great guest in our home. Will be booking again! Thanks so much!”


About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats for my close friends, family, and colleagues over the last several years. I've assisted in walking, feeding, cleaning waste, and of course the best part - cuddling! I really do love all animals, but I am definitely a cat lady. :) I recently moved to Richmond and am looking for a new role in IT. While I’m on the job hunt, I figured it would be nice to get to know the area better - what better way than through walks! I’m pretty free most days and at all hours throughout the day. Lately I’ve just been hanging out with my two kitties and fiancé. 😆 Being able to help out anyone in need of a pet sitter is something I look forward to! Unfortunately, I would not be able to board any pets in my own home due to circumstances out of my control. However, I will gladly care for any pets in the clients' homes.
