About: I’ve raised four German shepherds since they were nine weeks old and I will love and take care of your babies as I did mine! I’m currently working a full time job from Mon-Thurs from 7:30AM to 5:00PM. I have a routine of waking up before 4AM so I have plenty of time in the mornings, I am able to leave work between 11:30AM-1:00PM if I need to check on any pups at home or for potty breaks. I am off during the weekends, I don’t do much on my time off just read, clean and I try to exercise in my apartment. I live in an apartment and I will love to take walks and take your fur babies out when needed and for play time as well. I don’t have any pets at home. I will follow any instructions that you give me to sit your fur babies in my own home or yours.

“Doris was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my fur baby, and it was clear he adored her. She is kind, attentive, thorough, and very professional. She kept me updated throughout my time away, which gave me so much peace of mind. I will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Nadia took great care of my 11-year-old dog Nike. She sent pictures every day of her activity and my dog seems so happy to be among other dogs, which was surprising to me. I would definitely use her again. Nike was in good hands the entire time.”

“Caitlyn and Sam were absolutely amazing with our beagle, Gary! He can be a little nervous at first, and big noises tend to scare him, but they were incredibly patient, understanding, and gave him all the time he needed to settle in and feel comfortable. Their communication was outstanding from start to finish, which gave us so much peace of mind. They kept us updated with messages and photos, making it easy to relax knowing Gary was in such great hands. Since we were out of the country, their updates and communication meant even more. It truly felt like Gary was staying at his home away from home. Their girls adored him, and it was obvious that he was loved and cared for like one of their own. I honestly can’t say enough positive things about this family. They made us feel completely at ease, and knowing Gary was in such caring hands meant everything. If you’re looking for a safe, loving, and welcoming home for your pup, I highly recommend Caitlyn and Sam. We will absolutely be booking with them again!”


About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from young puppies to large breeds, and I’m confident handling a wide range of needs and personalities. I’m comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to make sure every pet stays healthy and safe. I also have experience with basic puppy training, helping reinforce good habits and routines. What sets me apart is my patience and understanding, especially with dogs who have separation anxiety or need extra reassurance. I take the time to make pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like my own, paying close attention to their behavior, energy level, and individual needs so they get the best care possible. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make it a priority to give each pet the time, attention, and consistency they need. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate morning, midday, evening, and even last-minute bookings when needed. Whether it's walks, drop-ins, or extended stays, I'm able to adjust my routine to match your pet's schedule and keep things as normal and stress-free as possible for them. I'm reliable, responsive, and committed to being there when you and vour pet need me. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I have a spacious three-floor condo that gives dogs plenty of room to move around and feel comfortable. I also have a friendly six-year-old dog who gets along well with other animals, helping visiting pets feel more at ease. My two daughters are gentle and respectful with animals, adding to the loving environment your pet will be in. I live in a great area for walks, so your dog will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention throughout the day. I make sure to follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping things consistent and stress-free by maintaining their normal routine and environment. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

“When I pull up to their house, My dog makes joyful sounds, jumping with joy & excitement because she loves to hang out with Pam, Paul & Marlowe. She’s very happy there.”

“Nathaniel was a phenomenal caregiver for my big boy, Brock! 🐾❤️ I had to book care for Brock very last minute, and Nathaniel was incredibly compassionate and accommodating to both Brock’s and my needs with such little notice. Brock had a wonderful time and was so graciously cared for. Nathaniel went above and beyond by sending me pictures and videos throughout Brock’s stay, which gave me peace of mind and reassured me that my boy was doing great. I’d also like to highlight Nathaniel’s flexibility and his personal schedule, which worked out perfectly for caring for Brock. 10 out of 10! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you so much, Nathaniel, for taking such great care of my boy! 🐶❤️”

“My dog Ruth had a blast staying with Maggie and Josh for a week while I was out of town. Ruth can be very shy around new people and nervous in new places.. but not with Maggie and Josh! Ruth was best friends with Maggie at first sight and was very comfortable in their home. They sent me regular photo updates and clearly cared for Ruth like she was their own dog. Even the questions Maggie asked me at our meet and greet showed her familiarity with and care for dogs. I wholeheartedly recommend Maggie and Josh, and I know Ruth is already looking forward to my next trip so she can stay with them again.”


“Cyndi was a great sitter for my dog Leila! She provided updates with plenty of pictures and I can tell my pup had a great night and was well taken care of with Cyndi!”

“Dolly was in great hands under Ramiza’s care. When we arrived back from vacation, Dolly looked very healthy and happy (like as if she had been on vacation as well). Highly recommend booking with Ramiza.”

About: I would love to come take care of your pet. I have always loved animals and training them has always been second nature to me. All my life I have been raising puppies along with all types of other creatures. I value their life as you would your own and I treat all owners and their belongings including furry children with utmost respect. I have fostered puppies from SFC(Spotsylvania) and BRAG here in Richmond. I am an army veteran who's current pet is a pitsky. She knows commands I have taught her myself. Sit, stay, down, drop, speak, handshake, ect. :-) I also know how to do dog CPR even though I am not certified I had a lab/mastiff mix who had a heart condition. I hope to work with you in the future. I currently am not working so I am flexible atm. However that may change by then end of June. I am always open to discussing plans with you.. I have a fenced in yard and at my clients home, if they do not have a fenced in yard, I make sure to never allow a pet to escape. I couldn't imagine the terror if it happened to mine so I will never let that happen to yours.

“Fantastic experience with Miss Aubrey. Kept us updated while we were away with pictures and even video. Mac was incredibly happy playing with her dogs and visiting with her family. We appreciate all she did while we were away to take care of our buddy Mac hoping she has availability the next time we’re away. Five star for sure.”

“Talen is the best, very patient my Cane Corso is very timid and anxious and Talen knew just what to do. You can tell she loves dogs. I will be booking her again, I almost didn't want to write this because I don't want her to get too many customers and we can't user her again. Lol”

Royal, Rhonda and Logan really came through for me on short notice when I was in a pinch! It doesn’t happen often, but when it does it’s nice to know there’s someone willing to help. ❤️ I know Chachi is well cared for when he visits and I have amazing pictures to support this! I highly recommend them. Thank you so much! ❤️

Kourtney was wonderful! Her home is the perfect setup for hosting dogs, and mine absolutely loved her large, fenced backyard. She was communicative both before and throughout their stay, providing daily updates and photos that gave me peace of mind. She was also flexible and understanding with drop-off and pickup times, which I appreciated. I recommend Kourtney to anyone looking for a great place for their dogs to stay!

Kendra took such great care of our dog. She was very thoughtful in sending multiple updates throughout the day every day of our pets stay with her. She was also very responsive to all messages. We had no worries at all and would love to be able to have our pet stay with Kendra again in the future.

Best pet sitter around. My pup absolutely loves going to see Airlea and I don’t have to worry about bit if he is being taken care of. She sends pictures and videos throughout the day so I can see how much fun my dog is having. Half the time he isn’t ready to leave and wants to stay with her lol. If you are looking for a wonderful sitter for your 4 legged family, she is the one!!

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
