“Alex took great care of our two dogs! He sent daily updates and photos. Our dogs really enjoyed their time with him. He left the house clean and tidied up. Very happy with the care our dogs got while we were gone, especially our senior!”
“We were looking for someone to house sit for while we were overseas for a few weeks. From the moment we met Oli we knew our pets and home would be in good hands while we were away. Before our trip Oli took the time out to meet our pets and was happy to have all the detailed info about how to take care of them. Last minute our dog needed almost daily meds given while we were away and Oli didn’t hesitate to step up. She sent us multiple pictures and updates throughout the day which is as such a relief! When we came back our house was even cleaner than before and our pets barely greeted us. Which means they had an amazing time with Oli! Thank you so much Oli for your help and if you’re looking a reliable, communicative sitter, she’s your girl!”

I offer a flexible and stress-free experience for both you and your dog, with plenty of attention, exercise, and fun! Your pup’s comfort and happiness are my top priority. Looking forward to meeting your furry companion and making them feel at home!" I am excited an eager to help out taking care of your furry friends and with 18 years of having pets and three years of experience watching dogs for friends I am willing and able to do what it takes to give your dog a quality experience and help out with whatever is needed. I am a teacher in Chesterfield County so I can be available all day on weekends, Saturday and Sunday, and after 4 PM on week days. I have two dogs, one is a beagle/dachshund mix that is 3 years old and a 10 month smaller sized lab/hound mix that are both under 30 pounds and live in a two floor condo with no yard. I am able to walk dogs and do pop in visits to check on your dogs.

“Celeste was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter. She was communicative, thoughtful, and consistently kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear she genuinely cared about my dog, and seeing how happy and comfortable my dog was in her presence meant everything to me. I could tell my dog felt safe, loved, and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely trust Celeste again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Daniel is great. He is prompt, and conscientious of others property and animals. He asked good questions at the meet and greet. He stayed with Morty for 3 nights at my apartment and both the apartment and Morty were in great shape when I returned. Daniel sent pictures and messages about how Morty was doing. He also let me know when Morty went counter surfing and got some of his treats. I appreciate Daniel's communication and thoroughness. I will most definitely use Daniel again, in fact he's staying with Morty again this weekend!”
“Michelle did an incredible job house and pet sitting our dog and cat. She communicated well, sent delightful photos and updates, and even handled an unusual house issue safely and with no stress on our end. We can't wait to book with her again!”

“Nancy did a wonderful job caring for our home and our three very different dogs while we were away. She was responsible, communicative, and great about checking in whenever she had questions. She carefully followed all instructions, and it was clear our dogs were well cared for and comfortable in her care. We came home to happy dogs and a house that was in great shape. We truly appreciated the peace of mind she gave us and would absolutely recommend her to others.”


About: My name is Nick and I am a teacher in Chesterfield county looking to use my love for animals as a way to make some extra money over the summer. I have had dogs and cats growing up my whole life and currently have a dog named Bagel and a cat named Friday. I also have lots of experience dog/cat sitting for friends and family over the years ever since I was in high-school. I am a teacher so I won’t be working during the summers so I will have unlimited time during the day/night to take care of your pets and their needs! Once the school year starts I can do weekends and afternoon/nights! I have a lot of energy myself so if your pets love to get exercise/play around I am very up for that. I also try to be very thorough with the pet care instructions and will ask questions/for clarification to ensure I am giving your pet the best care as possible.

About: I have experience caring for dogs through both long-term and everyday responsibilities, including helping raise my aunt’s dog from puppyhood and regularly caring for my boyfriend’s dog. My responsibilities have included walking, feeding, playtime, maintaining routines, and providing companionship to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care and attention I give to each pet individually. I understand that being away from their owner can be stressful for some animals, so I focus on creating a calm, reassuring, and positive environment where they feel secure and loved. My experience caring for puppies has also taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of paying close attention to behavior, routines, and energy levels. I treat every pet with the same care, compassion, and responsibility I would want for my own animals. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for my own cats. I make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention and playtime throughout the day. I even take my cat on walks, so I’m very attentive to both physical activity and emotional enrichment. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so being patient, observant, and consistent with their routines comes very naturally to me. II believe pets communicate their needs through their behavior and body language, so I always pay close attention to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I respect each pet’s boundaries while also giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and care. In both my home and a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, maintaining their routine, and making sure they don’t feel lonely or stressed while their owner is away.
“Rose was fantastic, we couldn’t ask for a better pet sitting experience. All of our pets adored her and seemed more than happy in her care. She sent lovely updates/photos of them and wasn’t afraid to reach out with questions. It was the most worry-free pet sitting experience and we look forward to travelling again knowing our pets will be safe and loved in her care.”

About: I’ve had dogs and animals my entire life. I have a heart for caring for animals and giving them the best life possible. Can help train younger dogs as I have experience training puppies and reactive dogs. 🚨I also have experience and knowledge of working with reactive dogs (barking, etc.). If your dog needs a bit more TLC and patience, I am happy to offer that to your pup. I ask that you describe in detail how to best set your dog up for success during my time with them and what their typical triggers are so that I keep your pup safe and happy. I’m a young professional living in central Richmond VA. I live a leisure lifestyle outside of work in event planning that includes many walks, plant gardening, and reading. I am also known for the occasional hike! Weekends are usually free as well as pockets of time throughout the day and evenings. Dogs are allowed anywhere in my home! I openly welcome couch snuggles (unless owner would rather place and mat training in place). I want to make my space as comfortable as possible for our furry guests, so will make any accommodations necessary for a relaxing stay with me!
“I am absolutely blown away by Jakiya and could not recommend her highly enough. She communicated like a pro and took exceptional care of my Finn and Vada! And, my house looked cleaner than when I left! I am already preparing to book her for another sit. My Finn and Vada wouldn’t have it any other way.”

“First experience with the app it was awesome ❤️ Sara was very caring and great with my two dogs?. Sara was very punctual and she was always keeping me updated with the care of my dog will I was in my trip. I definitely going to get in touch with her for the future caring of my dogs. ?❤️?”

“Alex worked with our one dog who was nervous around him at first. He spent a lot of time at our house with our two dogs while we were on vacation. When we came back our dogs were tired and happy.”

“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!”

“Kaleigh watched our dog overnight this weekend and was very communicative throughout the time we were away. She sent multiple pictures and let us know how our dog was doing. We appreciate her taking such good care of our pup for us!”

“Thank you Marissa! Figgy was well cared for and were so thankful to be able to leave her at home instead of at a kennel. Marissa left the house spotless and was extremely flexible when our plans changed.”

“Tiana is the ultimate professional. I almost had to cancel the booking due to unforeseen circumstances. She handled it with understanding, grace, and patience. I’m glad I was able to make alternate plans and keep my booking with her. She was early to everything related to the booking which shows how serious she takes her job. I made a short notice decision to come home early and Tiana responded and adjusted well to that also. She made sure the puppies were taken care of and everything in the house was in order so I can just go straight to bed.”

“Jacqueline was a great dog sitter! She watched our 2 large dogs for a week. She took the time to meet the dogs beforehand, and receive their care instructions. She sent daily pictures of the dogs and took great care of them! Highly recommend, and will definitely re-book for future trips.”

Woodland Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Molly took great care of our three dogs while we were away and kept us updated throughout. Molly was especially patient and understanding with our older Chihuahua. It was clear that our dogs were well cared for and comfortable. We would happily trust her with our pets again and highly recommend her to others.

Amaya did an amazing job. Love her fun and bubbly personality.She was very consistent with her updates and easy to talk to. Knowing our babies were in her good care made our vacation much more relaxing. I would highly recommend and can't wait to book her again.

If you can successfully walk my dog, you can probably handle just about anything! 😂 My pup is full of energy and thinks every walk is an Olympic pulling event, but Jonatan handled him with patience and confidence reassuring me that my sweet boy was in good hands. I will definitely use Jonatan in the future as he helped me out in a bind for a last minute trip and even came over the night before to meet my pup. Very accommodating, attentive, and kind.
