Dog Walkers in Acree Acres, VA

About: i've taken care of dogs since I was 11 and I've had a cat for almost ten years now. I love spending time with all breeds! I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with, take care of, and love on your fur babies. I'll take care of your animals whichever way you see fit. I have a fenced in back yard and will crate them if you see fit.

“Hope was wonderful to work with. She was very easy-going and did a wonderful job communicating with us. She gave a recap her time with Vader which was nice to read and we were very comfortable using her as a dog-walker for our pup. We look forward to hiring her again in the future! Thanks Hope!”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have always loved having the companionship of animals in my home. I currently have 2 cats and one dog. I’ve had cats, dogs, fish, rabbits and hamsters. I’ve fostered a puppy and a kitten as well recently. I love being around animals and will take great care of yours, given the opportunity! While I do work full time, I’m able to come home for lunch and check in with my animals, and spend most of my time with them on the weekends. While I don’t have a fenced in backyard, my dog spends ample amounts of time outdoors whether on walks or with a long outdoor tether that gives her plenty of room to roam. I’ve also cared for animals in other people’s homes if that is a preference. My animals have gotten along very well with other animals that have come into the home.

About: Hello, my name is Kathy and I offer drop in visits, day care, and walking for mellow and senior dogs and I specialize in caring for cats and kittens. I have lived with and cared for both cats and dogs my whole life, from young ones to seniors, as well as sick pets who need medical attention. I am skilled at giving oral medication and shots. I also volunteer at my local no-kill shelter and handle cats of all sizes. My husband and I live with our small introverted tripod dog and 2 cats in a house with a fenced-in backyard. Our neighborhood is quiet and safe with sidewalks. Our home is a relaxing space for senior, mellow, and/or introverted dogs - if your dog enjoys cuddling on the couch or slow strolls around a quiet neighborhood, then we have the perfect home! I also offer the following services separately: - Dog baths (shampoo + conditioner; $15/bath) - Cat nail trimming ($10/session) Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work from home with a generally flexible schedule. I'm able to set my own hours for the most part and can be available over lunch as well as before and after work. I'm also able to take frequent breaks to let dogs outside in our fenced-in backyard with a 6-foot fence. After work, we will go for a walk around the neighborhood. I'm the primary caretaker but my husband helps when he is home. Boarding: I have a small, introverted tripod and 2 cats. As such, I will only board mellow, senior, and/or introverted dogs who are good with cats. My cats will not bother your baby as long as they don't bother the cats. Drop-ins: I understand every pet has its own personality and will respect their needs! I'm happy to play with your energetic companion or leave your shy loved one alone and let them come to me. No matter what, I am always attentive to their body language.

About: I have several years of experience providing care, supervision, and support to children and families in educational and daycare settings. Through these roles, I’ve developed strong skills in patience, responsibility, communication, and creating safe, nurturing environments. I bring that same level of care and attention to every pet I watch. I am comfortable following feeding schedules, administering basic care, providing exercise and enrichment, and ensuring pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I have experience caring for my own cat and enjoy spending time with animals of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I am available 24/7 throughout the summer and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive, consistent care for pets. Whether your pet needs boarding, daycare, drop-in visits, or walks, I can accommodate a variety of schedules and routines. I make it a priority to ensure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship throughout the day so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel at home. I live in a three-story townhome with plenty of indoor space for pets to relax and play. While I do not have a fenced yard, there are several nearby walking trails where dogs can enjoy regular exercise and outdoor time. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I prioritize safety, supervision, and positive interactions at all times and provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while their pets are in my care.

“Sheri took GREAT care of my dogs, communicating promptly when one of them barfed up something strange (he’s fine) and checking on him later in the day. She also added an unscheduled morning walk and feeding when my flight was delayed. She’s a pro.”

About: I have three dogs that I have trained and taken care of since they were puppies. My oldest is 10 years and youngest is 4 years old. They are my world and I truly love training and taking care of them. I am my friends and family's go to pet sitter when they are out of town, so my pups are used to having other dog visitors! I'm very reliable and will treat all animals as if they are my own. I'm on Rover so I can meet and take care of other dogs instead of adding another to my pack ;) I work from home mostly so I am flexible regarding when I can take care of your pet. Morning, lunchtime, or evening walks - I will try to accommodate to whatever you and your pet needs! I have three friendly dogs and a large fenced yard. I’m downstairs with my pups all day while working from home. I enjoy taking breaks and playing with them through out the day.

“Shawnaxis very reliable, sends great pictures, and my doggos love her.”

About: I am a certified, professional dog trainer, through the Victoria Stilwell Academy, a Pat Miller Certified Trainer and, have an 3rd certification through the Certification Council of Professional Dog Trainers. I only believe in Positive Reinforcement/Force Free training. Dogs are my life! If you have any behaviors you would like me to work on while they are with me let me know. If your pup comes to stay in my home, they will be treated like one of the family. They will receive all the love and attention they get at home. Plus they will have 2 playmates, my pups Sophie and Vinny! Let's talk and see if your pup will fit into our little family. You can rest assured they will be happy and healthy in our home. I do ask that we do a meet and greet with my dogs before I accept any appointments. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup! I am retired from the Air Force and own my own dog training business. So I set my own schedule and can give your pup all the attention it needs. I have a fully fenced yard and two very friendly dogs. Vinny will play all day if your pup wants to, but he is very respectful if they are not as active. Sophie is very independent and like to lounge around the house. Your dog will never be left alone with my dogs if I have to leave the house. I always separate the dogs when I leave, just in case anyone gets grumpy.

About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs my whole life, but I love animals of every kind. As a biology student who can't have any pets of my own at school, I'll treat your pets like my family! I am taking organic chemistry over the summer, so my schedule will be very flexible. I am an early riser, so morning walks are not an issue for me. I am happy to make multiple visits to your pet each day! For dogs, I walk and feed them regularly and make sure they get as much exercise and socialization as they need. For cats, I feed them regularly, clean litter boxes, and give them space unless they want to be my friend. I will not touch any personal belongings unless I have permission to do so, and I will ensure the security of your home by locking doors and keeping all client information confidential. I am very reliable and I will care for your pet like they are my own!

About: This is my first year walking dogs professionally for people around my area. But I have been taking care of cats and dogs since I was in middle school for neighbors, family and friends. I’ve always loved connecting with animals and I hope being sitter opens me up to new animals. As of right now i’m working part time, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets. Im almost always free in the mornings and anytime after 5pm. I have 2 Dogs and 2 Cats at home. I’ve been loving and taking care of them ever since I could walk. When I take care of client pets I want make sure I follow all the owners instructions and handle them with caution.

About: I have always been expected to care of my own pets from a very young age and now mine live with me at college:) I love it so much I even created my own dog poop cleaning up business in sixth grade! Anything I could ever do to help someone with their pet is so rewarding, and I understand needing to travel and see the world or visit family as I have moved around a ton when I was younger. I’m super excited to join the app! Having my animals in college has helped me ensure I build a healthy schedule not only for myself, but also them! The way I love a routine, so do they. I try to get up around the same time each day and feed dinner around the same time also. My dogs don’t eat lunch, but I have cared for animals that have and it’s all about craving that extra important time for them to ensure they feel comfortable, especially with family gone. I love the outdoors and walks during the summer so doing that is the least I could do for my babies. I’m a very flexible and communicative person which hopefully sets up the best care:) I want to be as respectful as possible, and since working at a clients home I would want to make sure I know what works best for your animal. If is a lot of outside time, space, treats, being in the crate while gone or not. anything! I can totally work around that because I want you to have peace of mind for your home and pet:)

“I am having a fantastic experience with Sam! She is incredibly attentive to my dogs’ needs and provides regular updates. My dog is always (a bit too) excited to go on walks with her, and I feel confident with them in her care. Highly recommended!”

“Helena helped me out for a few weeks and was great. She did a pre visit and met with my pup which made me more comfortable with letting someone into my place. She even brought in my packages and took it upon herself with making sure his water bowl stayed full when I would be gone for long periods of time. Thank you!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life, from big high-energy breeds to tiny puppies that needed extra attention. I’m calm, patient, and very comfortable with anxious or shy dogs. I’ve even helped with a newborn puppy delivery when the mom needed assistance. Friends, coworkers and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, crate, and give their pets structure and comfort while they’re away. As an active-duty Navy instructor, I bring reliability, communication, and a clean, respectful approach to every home I stay in. I currently work part-time with short 4-hour shifts every other day, which gives me plenty of time for overnights, drop-ins, and walks throughout the week. My schedule is very consistent, so I’m able to give your pets lots of attention and keep routines stable. I treat every home with respect and keep things clean and organized while you’re away. I’m very comfortable with big breeds, anxious pups, and dogs who need a little extra patience. I follow your routines closely and give your pets a calm, structured, and safe environment.

About: I’ve taken care of my rescue for 8 years now. I received him from a shelter almost an hour away. Ever since I have been delighted in making sure dogs get the best possible care and love. Seeing their eyes light up and tails wag makes it worth it! My schedule allows me to have multiple days off a week since I work as a Registered Nurse in a busy Emergency Room. On my days off, I have plenty of time to be with your pets. I have a high energy dog of my own. He gets two walks a day and play time in our fenced in yards. Plenty of belly rubs and treats. I have taught him basic commands as well, such as “paw”
