About: Hello! I have grown up with pets my entire life and have spent the past couple of years learning how to care for cats and dogs. I have helped raise dogs from puppies to adulthood with everything from grooming to exercise. The breeds I have the most experience with are Labrador and Maltese dogs. For training, I have experience both in training my own dogs and carrying on the training set by the owners of the dogs I watch over. I love to exercise with pets and enjoy walking with them alongside playing with toys. I have no preferences when it comes to pets as I will happily care for and love them all! I work a part time job with a very flexible schedule so I am easily able to fit pet care into my weekly schedule alongside care for my own animals. I am experienced with both crate-trained and free roaming pets. I am also keen on pet welfare to ensure the animal’s physical safety and happiness.
About: I’ve taken care of several dogs of every shape and size, from 2 at a time to 5. I’ve also raised a dog of my own since he was 6 weeks old. I have open availability at the moment so if u need a last minute sitter or work long hours I’d be happy to take your pet(s) for walks or stop by to let them use the bathroom and run around for a while I will be respectful of your house and keep it clean while taking good care of your pets, I will make sure your pet doesn’t wreck anything while I’m there and situated comfortably when I’m not
About: I have had pets my whole life, but within the past two years I have gained great experience handling difficult dogs professionally and am currently a dog daycare attendant assisting with controlling fifty dogs per session! I have also begun helping with training classes on the weekends. I have two crazy girls myself so im sure can work with your pups and we can have an enriching exercise time. I have two rambunctious dogs that give me a full time job, but plenty of free time to give your pets the care they deserve while you take care of human business! I volunteer at the Humane Society, and seek out animal care opportunities (large and small) to fill my time. I give love and affection to every pet under my care! My two dogs go on many walks and so can yours! I take pets very seriously but not too serious for playtime. I have experience with reactivity, resource guarding, and redirection.
About: Hi! I’m Madison, a lifelong dog lover with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I grew up with several different breeds and I’m confident handling dogs with all kinds of personalities — from shy seniors to high-energy puppies. What makes me different? I’m comfortable administering medications and recognizing signs of stress or discomfort. I also treat every dog like my own — with patience, joy, and tons of belly rubs. I believe walks should be safe, stimulating, and full of tail wags! Whether your pup needs a short potty break, a jog around the block, or just a new friend to hang out with, I’m here to help. Why Clients Love Me: • Always punctual and reliable • Updates with photos and fun notes after every walk • Flexible scheduling and last-minute availability • Training is also another option I like to throw out there With my job I’m also in Alexandria area often every week as well! Let’s get your dog’s tail wagging — I’d love to meet your furry friend/family member! I clean house’s, so my schedule is almost the same everyday unless clients need to move cleanings around. I’m typically off before 4pm everyday and some days earlier. I have an almost 3 year old dog that I’ve had since he was born. I had 2 litters of puppies so I’ve had experience in training 15 puppies! He is my pride and joy. He is very spoiled and loves to play ball. I would treat your dog as if it were my own. I have a huge heart & love to be around dogs of all sizes!

Jaden Hope B.
“Ty is very knowledgeable with dogs. He has trained a dog from puppy to adult. The dog was well mannered and overall taken care of well.”
Liz F.
“Liz is the most passionate person I know when it comes to her love for animals. She has literally risked her life to protect her own dog . Liz has a very deep connection and love for domesticated and non domesticated animals alike. She has had animals in her life since she was born. Prior to her military service she tended to a variety of animals on her parents farm, even now she takes every opportunity that she can get to dog sit for friends. I know for a fact that she has a true calling for animals and will be an excellent addition to Rover and your Doggys! Your pups will fall in love with her! Theres no one better to take care of them!”
Madison S.
“I can't say enough wonderful things about Madison! From the very first walk, it was clear that she truly care about dogs and treat them like her own. My Finn, who can be a bit shy with new people, warmed up to them instantly—and now wags their tail with excitement every time Madison shows up. She is punctual, trustworthy, and go above and beyond, even sending adorable photos and updates after each walk. It's such a relief knowing my pup is in such loving and capable hands. Highly, highly recommend!”
