Cat Sitting in Woods Acres

“Both our girls are very shy, so I don't think Elizabeth ever saw them or played with them. But it was so nice to know someone was coming in each day to be with them and they weren't alone in the house all day.”

Kelly H.

“Wendy is the best caretaker for your dogs. She treated our dog like her own during a holiday weekend and provided detailed updates.”

Lindsey G.

“Very sweet very kind would definitely recommend”

Pamela B.

“Shannon was wonderful with our pets. We have a very wacky dog that she was so patient with. She paid attention to all of our cats, and even got our most shy ones to let her pet them. She was careful and attentive to our Crested Gecko as well. She provided thorough updates every visit, and the pictures made us confident our pets were being well taken care of. We would absolutely book Shannon again to care for our family while we’re away!”

Marisa H.

“We had such a great experience with Mark! He was reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring with our pets. From the start, they made us feel at ease with thoughtful updates, photos, and check-ins, which really helped while we were away. Our pets were calm, happy, and clearly well cared for when we returned — always a great sign. You can tell Mark truly loves animals and takes the responsibility seriously. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive Rover sitter.”

Lauren D.

“Sara was great! She took care of our 3 cats over the weekend. Will definitely rebook!”

Pamela M.

“Carolyn did a great job looking in on our 5yo boxer.”

Mark W.

“Cynthia was a great sitter! She was very communicative with me and sent me pictures of my cat while she was there. I felt like I didn’t have to worry about him at all when I was away for Christmas! Absolutely will try to rebook with her anytime I have to leave town!”

Madelyn F.

“Damaica is very responsible and communicative. Shared pictures of our kitty, who isn't always the friendliest to strangers, but allowed Damaica to pet her - a new friend. Definitely would use again.”

Anne B.

“Savannah did a wonderful job taking care of Phoebe. She was attentive, gentle, and responsible, making sure Phoebe was comfortable and well cared for at all times. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Phoebe’s well-being, which gave great peace of mind.”

Lizeth M.

“My wife has always had someone to watch her dog, but we recently built a house and she moved to Goochland County. It was our first time using the Rover service and Riley was great. She sent notes and pictures to keep us updated on each stay. She was great and will be using her services again!”

Ronnie K.

“Amanda was Amazing! She was prompt and thorough. We enjoyed the videos and pictures of our kitty cats while on our Cruise. We will be repeat customers. Thanks so much and Happy Holidays 🎄🎅”

About: Working with my mom and brother since 10 I am now setting out on my own, we have made sure every pet in and throughout has gotten their proper care and I will continue to today. I am a vet ACE center student at Hermitage High School and a senior in high school at Freeman so be assured I am taking the time to learn about your fur baby and will do my best to succeed in their best liking. Currently I take care of pets at home through my mom but I am going on my own and at my ACE center, as I have at past jobs of mine. So after school and on the weekends is best for me. If you write out your schedule, what time for feedings, walks, when bedtimes are, and preferences, I will do it to the best of my ability while also updating suggestions and places to get supplies. You will get updated with pictures and other chores you would like done at your will.

“Thank you so much for taking time to spend with Maggie. She loves people and it is a blessing to have you come and spend time with her!!”

Renee K.

“My dog had the best time with Kristin on his snowy walk! She sent pictures and he’s sufficiently worn out 🙂”

Paige M.

“Carleen was accommodating and dependable! She took care of our cat while we were away and made sure everything was taken care of. Will definitely use again!”

About: I've been around dogs since I was 5 years old. I have walked, played with, fed, cleaned up after them having accidents when they are older or as a puppy. I've cared not only for mine but also friends dogs while they are out of town. We has a puggle for 15 years, which passed away. Looking for a way to be with animals and get that interaction and loving in with your member of the family. That's how all of our animals were that I've had, they are family. Let me help make your time away from your precious family member be much more relaxed by knowing that he or she is being well taken care of. I send photos to my friends of their dogs when they are gone, so they know that they are doing fine and it makes them happy to see their dogs too. Look forward to meeting you! I currently work part time, so I had plenty of time to care for your pets. Just let me know how I can help make your time away from them easier. Our kids are grown and out of the house too, so have plenty of love to pour into your loved one. I am a nurse by profession, so know how to care for others and I'm no stranger to caring for older animals as we had a 14 year old cat and a 15 year old dog that we loved and cared for their whole lives and will continue to miss them for the rest of ours.

About: I've been around animals since before I could walk, and have always had a way with them. My family and I lived in a trailer park when I was little. My mother always said from the moment I was born the animals flocked to me and there was no animal I couldn't get my hands on. My sister and I used to play with the stray cats outside of Grandpa's house. Pop would always mention how the cat we were holding would never let anyone close enough. Mom would often find "miss kitty in my crib with me. As I got older miss kitty passed away, but had left behind some kittens in her stead. Mom had decided to keep one and named him pudgy. He was a long hair black cat with the tiniest bit of white on his underbelly. I can remember running up and down the hallway and tap my shoulder as if trying to play tag with my sister and I. Pudgy and I had been the best of friends for about 18 years, till his passing. During the years he and I were together, he would often come running anytime he heard me sniffle or begin to cry. There were many other animals that we had over the years as well. Dogs, chickens, goats, rabbits, rodents, amphibians, horses they've been a vital part of my life. But no matter what I always come back to many best friend and the furry felines. If you're looking for a caring, detail oriented, and experienced fur sitter/walker, look no further. From feathered birds no bigger than your hand, to strong horses, I've handled just about anything. While I am new to this app, I am no stranger to animals. Wether they are young babies or older seniors, I would be more than happy to care for your pets. Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile, and I hope to hear from you soon. I am currently working on getting my EVOC certification for Royal Medical. I will not have my updated schedule until after March 29. When I watch pets I do generally have my 5 yo with me. Availability -pending I have a dog pen out back and a cable that we use with our dogs fairly frequently when the weather is nice. I also have a play pen that the pups play in.

“Kayla and Demitrius were awesome. They took great care of our four cats over the long holidays. In fact, they really went above and beyond by also feeding a stray cat we've been looking after - they didn't have to do thar but they truly are animal lovers. Our littlest cat is naturally very suspicious but even he had warmed up to them by the end of the holiday. We will definitely reach out to them first every time we need cat sitters.”

About: Just moved back to the RVA area after years away. I have one dog of my own and am trained in basic/ behavioral training plus previous experience at Richmond Animal Control and Care as well as Hanover Humane Society. I take online classes only and in the evenings so from the time a dog needs me to when they’re ready for bed I am there. I make sure they sniff on walks and know that they walks are for them, not me. I have many different leashes and harnesses as well as a lot of experience handling large and hyper active dogs. Nothing scares me.. except spiders.
