“Couldn’t imagine better care! I boarded my pup with Michele for a few days, and she was super communicative, flexible and kind. I could tell my pup felt comfortable with her right away. Would recommend her in a heartbeat!”

“Melanie took great care of my dog. It was my (and his) first time being away from home. Melanie made time for us to talk about what my dog was like and what he needed and what he’d appreciate. She reached out once when she had a question, which I appreciated. Melanie communicated very well and quickly. If she’s available, I will choose Melanie next time!”

“Dawn was really great with our pup, Leia! We met up with her and her dog, Arlo, before we booked and made sure they got along well. Leia had a new injury right before our trip, but Dawn really made us feel comfortable leaving Leia with her and knowing that she would be well taken care of while we were away! She asked a lot of good questions and made a plan for how to make sure Leia and Arlo could still enjoy each other's company without Leia overdoing it. We feel really happy knowing we found a good place for Leia when we have to be away!”

“Juliana is so sweet. I was so grateful she was able to adjust timings for pick up and drop off. And most importantly, Gal loves her.”

“Great with communication. Felt super comfortable leaving my fur baby with Nick. Will definitely use him again in the near future.”

About: I love animals of all sorts! I've spent most of my life with dogs at home, and also have some experience with hedgehogs. I'm reliable, responsible, and punctual - whether you need help during the work-week with intermittent dog walking, or someone to look after your pet while you're away, I'll make sure s/he is getting the appropriate care. I also recognize that different animals have different needs, and want to work with you to make sure your pet gets the best possible care. I look forward to meeting you and your pet soon! I'm available for boarding dogs on weekends and holidays, as well as smaller critters during the week. I can also walk your pup on weekday evenings. I do not currently have any dogs or cats, so your dog would have me to themselves! (I do have one hedgehog at home, but he is secure and separate from any other pets.)

About: I am an animal lover! I have seven years of experience as a veterinary technician, and many more in general animal care. I am very active and love to take dogs out for walks and hikes. I am very attentive and patient, and will tailor my care to any special or extra needs that your pet may have. I love all creatures and I am happy to take care of any pets you have. I have experience with iguanas, snakes, ferrets, rabbits, guinea pigs, etc. I am happy to administer medications, do basic grooming and nail trims, and any medical treatments that might be needed. I am willing and able to care for pets that may have aggressive tendencies, whether it be fear or territory based, or other. I am reliable, trustworthy, professional, and very loving. Also happy to do mail collecting, plant care and other basic needs while you are away. I currently work part-time from home and make my own hours. When I have pets to care for, the rest of my schedule will be built around them and their needs. I live close to a river, field, and woods trails. I will only let your dog off leash if they are able to follow voice commands. I have one friendly black lab and a friendly cat, who will keep your pet company.

“Colleen was great! Very responsive, good-humored, and attentive to our slightly high-maintenance and quirky older dog. She even offered to do pick up and drop off when it worked out with her schedule. We will be back!”

“Amanda was great with Lu! She was super communicative, sent photos, and played a lot of fetch with him. I’d definitely leave Lu with her again!”

“Dina did a lovely job taking care of my kitten. She provided helpful updates and photos. He seemed happy and his usual self when he got home :)”

“Macy was fantastic. She was always instantly responsive, super comfortable and confident with our pup and her dog Dezi was a great playmate for Auggie. Her large fenced in yard was a perfect play area, large enough to get a lot of exercise running around. Thank you Macy!”

“Anyone who has a pet should trust that important part of their lives with Sam. His own animal beings are treated with respect, love, kindness, patience, intuition, gentleness, and tolerance. Sam is meticulous when it comes to food, safety, hygiene, medical attention, and overall care. He talks to Sylvia, his cat, and Okie, his dog, and they talk to him. I have heard them! Honestly, I think he understands animals more than he does humans!”

“Mildred did an excellent job taking care of our little dog. She was great at communicating with us throughout his stay with her. Thank you!”

“Colleen was great with my dog. He is blind so generally needs a little extra love and guidance. She did excellent with all of that, and he was the happiest guy when I picked him up. Would absolutely recommend her, and I would not hesitate to book her again when I am out of town.”

“Peter was very gracious in accepting a last minute request to care for our dog and though the stay was short, our dog seemed very happy and content. Would definitely recommend Peter.”

About: We are a family of animal lovers here! My husband and I served animals in shelters and hospitals for 15+ years! And want to continue.. I'm currently job searching, working part time and home a lot of the time, and happy to have some pet therapy while I look and help! I have a fenced small yard and a 2.5 year old who goes to daycare. Pets will be on the first floor mostly and get walks and cuddles and everything else in between.

“I can tell my dog was given lots of love while away from us. Caroline and Bob are lovely down to earth people. I will definitely use them again when I come down to Williamsburg, VA”

“Tyler is great! He was happy to do a meet & greet before booking & his pup Riley is really sweet. My dog seemed happy & was calm at pick up. Would book again.”

“Jessica is an awesome dog sitter. My dog Ollie has spent many stays with her. She's super attentive and nurturing. Ollie is always in good spirits when I pick him up. She is very reliable and accommodating.”

“Katelyn was great with our dog who was having a hard time settling in when we were traveling for 10 days. She kept us in the loop and was patient, communicative, and willing to take extra measures to make sure all the dogs in her care were getting what they needed. He was well cared for and even came home with a new Baby Yoda Christmas sweater! Definitely would recommend!”
