House Sitting in Mechanicsville

Isabella is the first dog sitter we’ve worked with on Rover and we were admittedly nervous — but she was INCREDIBLE. Our dog loves her and she’s extremely communicative, thorough, and caring. She sent photos and updates with every check-in and was so patient with our pup’s picky eating. She made fans of our neighbors and now they want to work with her too! We have another trip coming up in a few months and we won’t hesitate to use Isabella again!

Oli was a GREAT pet sitter, very communicative, sent us daily pics and updates and graciously entertained my dad when he came by to chat. House was in perfect shape when we got home. Would absolutely book again!

Randi was so great! She came to meet everybody in advance of the stay, kept in close communication while here, and even left them with a special toy.

This was our first time using the site, and Michelle was the perfect house/dog sitter for us while we were away for several days! She bonded with Sugar, snuggled, and took great care of her. She sent me pictures and frequently checked in so that we felt comfortable knowing Sugar was in good hands. Michelle is flexible and understanding, which works well with our hectic schedule! When we arrived home, the house was clean and well taken care of, which was so nice to walk into, especially arriving late at night. We will definitely request Michelle in the future!

Violet did a great job with Mr. Fox. I came home to a happy pet. I also appreciated the little extras like bringing the garbage and recycling cans from the curb and getting the mail.

Anna did a great job looking after our cat during our 11 day trip. She sent us plenty of pictures and videos to let us know that she was properly fed and cared for. She even helped cover a few other household chores for us. She has demonstrated that she is very dependable and is serious about caring for animals.

Alex took such good care of our dogs, through a winter storm and all! All three dogs are 10+ and a bit of a handful but Alex made us feel like we could truly enjoy our vacation without worry. Very thankful to have found him!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Robin. We left Gidget, our 1yr old pup, and our two cats with Robin for a weeklong trip. It was the first time we’ve ever left Gidget behind with a sitter. Not only did Robin take excellent care of our crew, but she also sent regular check-ins and photos so we could see how great everyone was doing in order to have peace of mind and enjoy our vacation. Robin is very easy to coordinate with, responds promptly and left our home the way she found it. I know Gidget, Béatrix and Clover were loved on and well cared for the entire time Robin was looking out for them and will 100% try to book Robin for any future needs.

Averi is a God send. Our dog is a service dog and therefore has special requirements on the few occasions she is away from her person. Averi has formed a great bond with her and makes sure all of her training requirements are kept up in our absence. Being apart from her person is stressful for Sandy and Averi is super patient and understanding. We have used her multiple times and I would not use anyone else. Highly recommend!

Jordan did an excellent job taking care of our dog and cat. She sent consistent updates and photos and our house was well taken care of.

I’m so glad I found Amanda for dog sitting! It was wonderful to be able to have my pup in the comfort of his own home and she sent lots of update pics!

Rachel was an amazing petsitter for our dog and cat! She was very communicative and responsive, and made us feel like our pets and home were in safe hands. I would absolutely recommend her to any of my friends with pets, and we will be using her services again! Thank you, Rachel!!!

V was able to support my dog as she healed from an injury she got just before the sitting. It really means a lot when you are able to take on that extra responsibility in a time of need. Thank you so much, she is healing well!!

Monique was wonderful with our rescue dog and understanding her special needs. Very good in communication and follow through. We will definitely use her again for future house sitting or dog walks. Thanks, Monique!

Steven is a great house sitter! My dog is suspicious of strangers, and he did everything right to establish trust with her. He sent nice updates and photos during the stay. Steven also took great care of the house and was extremely responsive. Highly recommend!

Nikki was great! She was super quick to communicate, sent us lots of pictures, and our pup has been sleeping since she left because he’s so tired. We will definitely be reaching out in the future.

Kaitlyn was a great sitter for my pup while I was out of town! She’s friendly, a good communicator, responded quickly and sent frequent updates. I’d definitely recommend her!

This was our first time leaving Molly with a sitter . Riley was great she came prior to meet Molly and they connected . The day we were leaving she came by that morning which gained more familiarity with Molly . When we got home everyone was happy. The comfort with Riley makes it easier now to leave Molly in such good hands . Thank you!

Eddie was fantastic with my pups!!! I knew the minute we all met him that he would be!! I have a little dog that is literally skeptical of everyone but immediately took to Eddie like he’s know him forever. He stayed over night with them and came to see them several times a day for potty and playtime. I will definitely be asking Eddie to sit for me in the future!!!!

Erin was amazing! She stayed at our house while we went out of town for four nights and spent lots of time with our pup while also staying over night so he wouldn’t get lonely :) She popped in on her lunch break to let him out and provided us with lots of updates. She left the house spotless and even washed the sheets for us which we really really appreciated! Highly recommend. Will definitely use her again in the future. Thank you, Erin!
