Couldn’t ask for a better person to service my needs . My dog has been noticeably in better spirits since Andrew started walking her . Extremely reliable, professional and accommodating.

Bridgitte is wonderful with our dog Leo! She sends pictures and updates, takes him for a walk, and gives him lots of love. We come home to a happy dog! Thanks Bridgitte! We will definitely be using her again in the future.

Kade was SO great with Kelso! This was my first time using Rover and I felt so much better knowing my pup was in good hands. Kade is very communicative, sent lots of pics, and went above and beyond - taking a package in and making sure my pup Kelso has enough water. Definitely recommend!!

Devinder is great with my dog. He takes the time to connect with Baloo and gives him the mid-day attention and care needed while I'm at work. Devinder is very reliable and is very good at communicating. I would highly recommend!

I forgot to book my walks for the week and I work 12 hour shifts, so it is imperative that my tiny guy ( who refuses to go inside on puppy pads) be taken out. Bridgette saved the day, even with such short notice. My dog also loves her. I definitely recommend her to anyone.

Giselle did a great job with my pups. My one dog is very anxious with new people, but as soon as he met Giselle, she made him feel at ease, and he warmed up to her very quickly. Giselle is very responsive and has been a pleasure to work with. We look forward to many more walks with her!

Chloe was a life saver! My fiancé and I came to Richmond to do engagement photos and we wanted our dog to be part of the fun. When I reached to Chloe to ask if she could help handle our pup, she was excited and eager to help. Right when we first met, Chloe offered to take Tor for a walk to get his wiggles out while my fiancé and I started our photo session.

Sasha has been the most amazing dog-sitter! She has come to my house during the day when I'm gone for long stretches of time and kept my dog company. She takes her out to go potty, plays fetch with her, gives her treats and meals, and makes sure her water is fresh. Sasha has also spent the night to care for my dog when my husband and I are traveling and has provided all of the above including making sure my dog feels safe and loved. I have found Sasha to possess the following qualities that make her an EXCELLENT pet caretaker: - responsible - prompt - communicative - caring - patient - trustworthy My dog LOVES Sasha and gets so excited when she comes to care for her :-) HIGHLY recommend Sasha for your pet-care needs!

Lila was a joy, and the relief I needed in my busy work week! I have never used Rover before, but booked her for a week of walks when I was in a scheduling pinch. She was very reliable, arriving right on time each day, and provided me a fun summary of my dogs’ demeanors...and was always very pleasant (even though I’m sure my puppy was a handful at times!). Thanks so much Lila, I would highly recommend you.

It was always a hassle trying to find someone to watch my cat, Bentley, especially when my regular people couldn’t watch him. But, Radyah is a lifesaver. We sat down with the Bentley and he seemed to take well to her. She's great at listening and if she had a question, or needed clarification over something, she spoke up. This is always a good characteristic to have. We did a test run, and wow, she’s absolutely incredible. She is more than capable of taking care of Bentley. He loves her, he's always slow to warm up to strangers, but I could tell that they were very chill when I came back. He was even resting on her lap. She’s pleasant, very sure, and such a joy to have. I feel as if he is safe with her and it's comforting to know. She’s now the number one pet sitter I call when I go out of town. I would highly recommend Radyah for her pet sitting abilities.

Erian is literally amazing!!! I couldn’t be happier with the exceptional dog-sitting services provided. From the moment I met her, I felt at ease entrusting my beloved fur baby in her care. Erian is incredibly reliable and trustworthy. She consistently arrives on time, follows all instructions, and maintains excellent communication throughout the entire pet-sitting period. I never once have worried about my dog when she’s in Erian’s hands. I can’t recommend Erian enough, she’s an outstanding dog sitter who clearly has a passion for dogs! Thank you Erian for taking such good care of Margarita for me while I’m away!

About: Dogs should be able to live their way while exploring outside. I take a patient approach in which dogs will be given time to sniff while still staying safe! I work during the week but try to stay active in the evenings and on the weekends. I’m available to give pets full attention during these hours. I do not have a fenced in yard and I live with two cats. I will let your dog roam the house but also understand if crating is preferred.

Chey is wonderful! Chey has taken care of my dog, Oscar and my 20 year old cat Daisy, who requires a lot of love and patience, for years. You can tell she’s very passionate about animals. She’s very caring and loving towards Oscar and Daisy. Not only is she so attentive to the animals she takes care of, she is also very dependable. Chey is all the qualities someone would look for in a good dog sitter. She’s dependable, communicates clearly, and shows my babies a lot of love. I always have peace of mind when I’m traveling and she’s taking care of my animals.
