House Sitting Worthington

“Very friendly and responsible. She took great care of my pupper and was very communicative. Would definitely work with Mary again 😊”

“Erica was absolutely amazing! This was my first time using a house sitter for my two dogs, Pepper and Merlin, and she made the entire experience incredibly smooth and pleasant. From the very beginning, she was extremely responsive and professional. We had an initial meet and greet, and then she even came back a day or two before the booking just to reacquaint herself with the dogs—which really put me at ease. She followed all of my instructions to a T, she was prompt, and kept me consistently updated with messages and adorable pictures. I could tell my dogs really bonded with her. Honestly, when I got back home, I felt like they were looking around for *her* instead of me—which is probably the best sign of all! The house was left just as I had left it, and I truly appreciated the level of care and respect she showed both to my pets and my home. I've already shared her info with a few friends who also struggle with the high cost of boarding, the risks, or even the guilt of leaving senior dogs in unfamiliar places. This experience was ideal because my pups got to stay in their own environment, which really reduced their stress and anxiety. In addition, I didn't have to worry about them being around other dogs which could lead to unexpected injuries or even sickness. I highly recommend Erica and will definitely be booking with her again for any future sitting or drop-in visits needed!”

“Oli helped us out on really short notice and took fantastic care of our pup. It was such a relief to know our girl was getting love and attention while we were away. Thank you, Oli!”

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.

“Sara was great with my dogs. I really appreciated how many photos she sent me while watching them and could see how well my anxious dogs were warming up to her.”

“Daniel was awesome! Very kind and kept us up to date on how things were going at home the whole time we were away! I would absolutely recommend him and would book him again in a heartbeat to take care of our pup!”

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.

“Le’Yana was amazing ! My first time using the app to book someone to watch my dog and I don’t regret it ! Very sweet women , definitely would be booking her again . Thank you”

“Bruce did a fantastic job caring for my special needs pup and our new 5 month old puppy. We came home to a behaved pup than we left! Cannot recommend highly enough!”

Stephanie B.

“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.”

“Best house and dog sitter yet! Plenty of updates, communication, photos and videos. Jordan took great care of Jet, giving him plenty of activity and affection, and our home as well. Will absolutely work with her again.”

About: I've had dogs since I was 5 (I'm 36). Cats I never had my own-- although I am getting kittens very soon :) -- but I have pet-sit for 2 cats of a good friends for 9 years whenever he left town. I also had a neighbor with anywhere from 7-15 cats growing up, and many (but not all) of those cats loved me. I am looking to build this into a primary source of income. I have closed weekends per the default availability, but please inquire and I will do my best to make time on weekends as well. I allow them to explore my house supervised in order to feel comfortable and knowledgeable about their surroundings. I have a space in the middle of the house that will be for pet toys / chewing / napping / etc.

“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!”

“Emily did a fantastic job caring for our critters and home while we were away. She provided daily updates, photos, and even a video or two. We really appreciated her good communication and reliability. Thanks for a great experience!”

“Rose is the best housesitter we've ever used from Rover! Responsible and great with communication! We had a small house/car emergency while she was housesitting, and she handled it perfectly. We will definitely be using her again.”

Liz M.

“For our 15-year-old Yorkie with limited hearing and vision, McKenzie was a caring and responsible day-long companion. She took our dog out frequently, gave her meds when needed, and even washed the food bowl! We can confidently recommend McKenzie as a knowledgeable and conscientious dog-sitter.”

About: I was raised in a family of animal lovers and helped to care for at least one family pup at all times. From my grandma's cat filled house to my own dogs, I have always been surrounded by a variety of furry friends so I'm very comfortable and experienced with caring for them. I began pet-sitting for neighbors as soon as I got into high school, and I'm very excited to meet some new furry friends! As a second year student at the University of Virginia home on winter break from classes, I've got a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care! I have a completely free schedule, which means I can provide consistent and attentive care for your furry friends, ensuring they get plenty of playtime, walks, and attention while you're away! Since I live in an apartment that doesn't allow animals, I don't offer in-home pet care services. Instead, I provide dedicated pet care at your convenience! I will make sure your pet feels comfortable and happy during our time together. I also maintain a flexible schedule to accommodate your needs, ensuring your furry friend receives the best care possible in a familiar environment. Your pet's well-being is my top priority!

“Kiara was wonderful! She played with our dog several times a day, bringing her outside in good weather and playing inside when it rained. Kiara kept up with the dog's medication schedule. She sent us pictures and descriptions daily, showing what our dog was up to, with several funny pictures and captions. Kiara also watered my outdoor plants -- they were in great shape when we got home -- and she was extremely considerate in terms of keeping the house in good shape. We will definitely hire her again!”

“We were so happy to find [Sitter’s Name]! She followed all instructions carefully and asked thoughtful questions when needed, which gave us peace of mind right away. After the first night, we knew our dogs were in great hands and we didn’t have to worry. She was reliable, attentive, and everything we hoped for in a sitter. We were impressed and would absolutely use her again and recommend her to others!”
