About: I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life and truly have never met an animal I didn’t love! From energetic puppies to sweet senior pets, I’m happy to care for dogs and cats of any age. I understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routines, and I love getting to know each one. With a very flexible schedule, I can provide dependable, loving care, plenty of attention, and lots of snuggles while you’re away. I work in a fully remote role with a highly flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Whether your pets need midday walks, extra companionship, or a consistent presence at home, I can typically work around your schedule and provide attentive, reliable care. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I don’t host pets in my own home because my dog prefers not to have furry houseguests. I’m more than happy to come to your home instead, allowing your pets to stay in their familiar environment and routines while receiving loving, attentive care.

Tali had a great walk with Maggie! I appreciated that she came over to meet Tali earlier in the week before the walk and Tali loved her instantly. She was flexible with some time changes and kept me updated after the walk sharing lots of pictures. Will absolutely continue to have Maggie walk my pup!

About: Hi! I’m a recent Physician Assistant graduate from EVMS with over 10 years of experience working as a veterinary assistant. Throughout my time in veterinary medicine, I cared for dogs and cats in clinical and boarding settings, including feeding, walking, administering medications (oral and injectable), and assisting with special needs and senior pets. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments, including those that may be anxious or require extra care. My medical background also allows me to recognize early signs of illness or distress, providing added peace of mind while you’re away. I have experience with basic grooming such as bathing and nail trims, as well as safely handling pets when needed. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important trust and communication are. I provide reliable, attentive care and will keep you updated with messages and photos during each visit. I offer flexible scheduling, including evenings, weekends, and last-minute bookings I’m currently preparing to start my career as a PA, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m currently preparing to start my career as a Physician Assistant, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as weekends and last-minute bookings. I build my daily routine around the pets I’m caring for to ensure they receive consistent attention, exercise, and timely care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and behavior. With over 10 years of veterinary assistant experience, I’m confident handling pets of all sizes and temperaments, including those that may be anxious or require extra care. I’m attentive to any changes in behavior or health and will communicate promptly with you if anything seems off. I treat every home with respect and ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment.

About: I've been taking care of pets in my neighborhood and with friends/family since I was 10, and I've really built up a passion and know-how for animal care. Here's what I'm good at: * I've got experience with all sorts of dogs, from bouncy puppies to chill older dogs, so I can figure out what each one needs. * Cats of every age, from playful kittens to senior felines – I get their needs. * I'm also really good at caring for senior dogs and cats, making sure they're comfy and happy with special routines. As I am currently unemployed, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate most day and night requests, whether it's a midday walk or vacation check-ins. I prioritize the safety and well-being of every pet in my care. I am meticulous about following all pre-established rules of the home and pet, ensuring a comfortable and secure environment for them. I am also flexible and adaptable, willing to adjust to the specific needs and preferences of each animal and their owners.

About: Not just another dog lover! I’ve had at least one dog, plus, at all times. Most from a puppy until departure. Experience with rescued dogs in making them feel comfortable/relaxed. We had a rescue from Hurricane Katrina. I’m very patient, caring, & don’t mind petting or playing all day. I’m hoping to give them the love and care when you can’t be ther. I work from home several days during the week and can properly share my time for walks, feeding, and playing. I have a Cocker Spaniel who gets along with other dogs well. I’m home in the evenings and weekends. I live in a pet friendly apartment complex with plenty of grassy areas and usually take my dog on a walk in the neighborhood. I don’t have any furniture or bed restrictions. I am happy to sit at your home, if preferred.

About: *Limited Time* $10/hr dog walking to make new besties! I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. For years, I spent my days in an office wishing I could be at home with my own dog instead. Now that I’m taking a break, I finally have the opportunity to spend more time doing what makes me happiest—caring for dogs. As I’m just getting started, I’m offering a special introductory rate to build reviews and trust. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a companion nearby, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. My goal is simple: to make your dog feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Send me a message! * Available Monday–Friday, 9am-5pm * Flexible scheduling within those hours * Perfect for dogs who need company while you’re at the office * Happy to accommodate your regular work schedule or one-time requests * Reliable daytime walks, drop-in visits, and companionship * I bring my own poop bags and make sure every walk is safe and enjoyable. * I use your dog’s harness and follow any walking preferences or routines you’ve shared. * I choose designated trails or quieter routes whenever possible to create a calm, low-stress experience. * During drop-in visits, I’ll respect your home by wearing shoe covers and leaving everything as I found it. * I’ll spend quality time with your dog—whether that’s playing, providing companionship, refreshing water, or simply keeping them company until you return. * I’ll follow your instructions carefully and treat your dog with the same love and attention I give my own.

I didn’t realize I could be even more grateful for Vianca, but here I am!! She took the absolute best care of my best bud during an insane heat wave, even going as far as to bring him a cool bandana to wear during his walk so he wouldn’t overheat. You can’t teach this type of intuitive, thoughtful care - she is simply magic! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Robert was our walker for more than 3 years, and we never once had any issues with his service. In fact he frequently went above and beyond, offering to help monitor minor medical issues we were treating during his walks, placing packages inside our apartment when we weren't home to grab them during the day, and handling last minute emergency requests when they came up. Plus, both our pets adored him. 10/10, would recommend to anyone, and we are sad we can't keep him on now that we have moved.
