House Sitting in Woodland Heights, Richmond, VA

“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!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember.. Growing up with everything from cats and dogs to rabbits, spiders, ferrets and even the occasional rescue critter. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I truly feel at home when I’m surrounded by furry friends. I absolutely adore cats! Their quirky personalities & quiet cuddles melt my heart & I love the energy & companionship dogs bring. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or just keeping your pet company while you’re away, I treat every animal with the same love & care I give my own. My schedule has its quirks, but it works in your pet’s favor! Tuesdays and Thursdays are actually my most flexible days, perfect for morning and evening walks or extended hangouts with your furry companion. As a full-time grad student and part-time social worker, my hours can be a little unpredictable but I always make time for what matters. Even with a busy calendar, caring for animals is a priority I never push aside. Whether it’s a midday drop-in or a sunset stroll, I’m happy to fit in the love and attention your pet deserves. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are at the heart of the care I provide. Whether I’m coming to your home for a walk, a cuddle session, or staying for an overnight house sit, I treat your space and your pets with the utmost respect and care. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your furry family member in someone else’s hands, and I take that responsibility seriously. I follow any routines you’ve set, keep their environment clean and peaceful, and make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved at all times. Whether it’s daily check-ins, long walks, or overnight companionship, I show up with patience, attention, and genuine care.

“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!”

“Thane was great! Our pups and cat were well taken care of and our house was just as we left it! Communication was great and loved all of the pictures that were sent as well - would definitely book again!”

“I recently hired Kyle as a house and dogsitter, and I couldn't be more impressed with his service. From the moment he stepped into my home, I felt at ease knowing my house and beloved pets were in capable hands. Not only did he maintain the cleanliness and security of my home, but he also went above and beyond in caring for my furry companions. He followed all instructions meticulously, ensuring my pets' routines were maintained and that they received plenty of love and attention. Kyle demonstrated exceptional responsibility and reliability throughout his stay, and I returned to find my house in impeccable condition and my pets happy and healthy. I highly recommend Kyle for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring house and dogsitter. His professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set him apart.”

“Rachel is great! Super communicative, reliable, and punctual. She went above and beyond to take good care of our dog for the weekend. Our dog had such a fun time with her and he seemed so calm and content after she left.”

“Emily did an incredible job taking care of our dog Pepper! She was happy to assist us with a last minute house sitting request when the family members who were originally going to watch our dog had to cancel for a personal matter. Even prior to being formally booked, Emily was quick to respond and receptive to the specific needs of our dog. We were able to set up a meet-and-greet between Emily and Pepper a few days before the house sitting, and it was clear that Emily was the right choice - our dog can be hesitant around new people, but she quickly warmed up her new friend. On the day of our departure, Emily arrived early enough for us to hand over our house keys safely and within 5 minutes of us being out the door we had our first update that Pepper was happily cuddling with Emily on our couch. On the following days, Emily provided regular picture & text updates about how our dog was doing and it was clear the two of them were getting along great. We couldn't be happier - thank you!”

“Averi did great with Sandy. We were gone on an extended trip and Averi stayed with Sandy in our home for 16 days. She followed all instructions for Sandy and really carred for her. Sandy loved her time and we got a lot of pictures while we were gone. This helped keep us from worrying to much. She walked, played with, and gave Sandy her medicine. It was christmas and Sveri got Sandy a puppy stocking and photo with Santa. She went above everything we expected. I highly recommend her.”

Tanya M.

“Alex was great with the dogs and was responsive to our messages. Was very impressed that he came over for a meet and greet and was taking notes and asking questions. Left the home so clean we couldn't even tell someone had been there. Highly recommend”

Jimmy A.

“Noel is amazing. She’s kind, attentive and connected easily with my dogs. She sent pictures and texts during the weekend and addressed their needs exceptionally well. Teddy & Pip were happy and relaxed when we got home.”

“An absolutely great sitter! Will be a returning customer! Thank you for taking such great care of my dog, Le’Yana!”

“Kali is my go-to dog sitter. She always does great with my little Morty Mouse whether its boarding or in-home sitting. She is reliable, communicative, and a true animal lover. Morty knows her by name and always feel safe and loved when we go out of town. Hire Kali and your pets will be loved just like youre at home”

Jared G.

“Kyla was a truly attentive, communicative sitter. She was great with Chico during the meet and greet and asked good questions, leaving me to feel 100% comfortable leaving Chico in her care. She was flexible and gracious with last minute changes, sent updates and pictures while I was away, and left my home very neat after her stay.”

Claire K.

“Christopher paid good attention when we were going over their care and information. He took good care of our pets while we were gone and sent plenty of pictures!”

“Vivian was great! This was my first time with a Rover sitter while out of the country and couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She even offered to check in on Mushu in case my flight got delayed. Vivian also has a cat with feline herpes so I felt at ease knowing she knew how to handle his needs and meds.”
