About: I went to school for 2 years to become a veterinary assistant, work 4 days a week and love what I do and enjoy being around animals in my spare time :) I enjoy drawing and painting in my free time and consider myself a care free individual. I have a dog of my own, a 7 year old beagle mix named Jaxx. Very outgoing and loves to play but what do you expect with a pup? Besides painting and working I enjoy watching my favorite show (Greys Anatomy or The Office) and laying back listening to music. I hope this answers most of your questions about me and I hope you take the chance to message me about taking care of your pet :) you won’t regret it! LoveHas4Paws :) I am mostly flexible with my job to fit your needs of pet sitting aside from starting school in December one day a week mostly. I come to the clients home to make the fur baby feel less stressed and relaxed since they are in their own home and give them all the love (and treats) lol

About: I am a pet owner of a miniature golden doodle who has severe anxiety and separation issues. I understand the fear of leaving your family member with a stranger and would care for your pet like my own. I have pet sit for large and small animals and am able to accommodate for any special needs your pet has. I have a bachelors degree in Applied Behavioral Sciences and have worked with all age groups with behavioral and mental health disorders and have applied that knowledge and experience caring for emotional needs animals. I assure you if you entrust your pet with me they will be in great hands. I am available to let your pet out multiple times throughout the day and can provide lots of play time and walks and can accommodate different needs I prefer to watch your pet in your home because my dog has anxiety issues and is scared of a lot of other animals. I can spend overnights or come to your home multiple times a day as needed. I am able to come early in the morning or late in the evenings and walk your pet multiple times throughout the day.

About: I have many years of experience pet sitting, primarily caring for small animals such as rabbits, lizards, and birds, as well as dogs and cats. I have a great love of pets and enjoy caring for them in their own comfy environment. I have experience with animals needing medication as well. I am happy to be able to care for your pets in your home on their schedules. I work part time in Staunton from Thurs to Sun. My typical work schedule is below, but I have flexibility as needed. Thurs 11-3 Fri 1-6 Sat 2-8 Sun 1-6 I am more than happy to house-sit and care for your pets in your own home. I provide high quality pet care in the client's home, feeding, medicating (if needed), playing with, and generally caring for the animals while maintaining courteous respect of you, your pets, and your space.

About: I have taken care of many of my friends pets, both dogs and cats and when I didn't have a pet of my own, would often borrow one! They make life so much better! Two of my references can give you first hand information about how much I loved and cared for their dogs. I work a 40 hour week in Waynesboro and depending on location of the pet, can do drop in visits before and after work and sometimes during the day (if local). I can come to your home or your dog can come to mine. I am not opposed to overnight stays. Your pet will be treated as if my own and with as much love and care as they can handle! They are more than pets, they are family!

About: My dog-sitting history is primarily dogs with a variety of health issues and idiosyncrasies. Does your dog have special needs or odd habits? I've got it covered! Normies welcome too. ;) I work full time during the week, so I'm available weekends if you need me during the day or I can lend my services on weekdays evenings/mornings depending on proximity. I'm religious about monitoring doors and making sure everyone is appropriately harnessed/leashed. I have experience administering topical and oral medications and can maintain time-sensitive care schedules.

About: I am currently a kennel assistant at an animal clinic! I help feed, walk, and take care of dogs, cats, and the occasional bunny! I am also a college student who’s looking for some extra work in Staunton! I’m in college with a part time job but I am always looking for some extra work! I have a bunch of free time and a bunch of experience with animals from my job! I would love to help take care of your furry babies! I take care of every animal like they’re my own! If I am house sitting at your home, I will be respectful and focus on caring for your animals and cleaning if needed!

About: Hi! I grew up in a family that bred Labradors and Australian Shepherds, so I have extensive hands-on dog (and puppy) experience! While I don’t have dogs of my own right now, I love all pups and enjoy getting to know their unique personalities. I also have four rescue cats, so I’m comfortable and ecstatic to care for kitties too. I’m reliable, loving, and happy to give your pets the attention, playtime, and cuddles they deserve while you’re away! As an online student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my day or week with ease. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles at times that work best for you and your pets. My flexibility means I’m available for regular visits, last-minute needs, or longer stays, depending on what your furry friend requires. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and routine. I follow any instructions you provide for feeding, medication, walks, and playtime, and make sure your pets feel calm and loved while you’re away. I treat your home with the same respect I would my own, keeping everything tidy and secure. My goal is to create a safe, happy environment where your pets feel comfortable and cared for, so you can have peace of mind while you’re gone.

“Maria goes so far above and beyond, she’s a star! 💫 She gives us detailed updates, is incredibly responsive & reliable, and is 100% adored by our dog.”

About: With over 50 years of pet ownership and caretaking experience as a foster through Lab Rescue of Greater Richmond, I would treat your furry friends as my own. I’ve had both dogs and cats and am comfortable administering medications and working with pets of all ages. As a retiree with no pets of my own at the moment, it’d be a great joy to take care of yours. I’m fully retired so I have plenty of time available to devote to the care and well-being of your pets. I’m happy to do scheduled drop-in visits during the day or overnights if needed throughout Augusta County. As a former foster parent, I have worked with dogs of varying comfort levels and special needs. I would take care of your pets with the same level of care and support as my own. I’m just as happy to go on a nice walk as I am to be a couch potato - whatever your pet needs, I’m here for them.

“Joe was great with Jade! He even went above and beyond and moved packages out of the rain for us while we were out of town. Highly recommend!”

“Sammi was a wonderful sitter! Very communicative, punctual, trustworthy, and great with my pets. I received so many adorable pictures and felt assured that my pets were in safe hands! I would definitely book with Sammi again!”

About: I am currently a college student studying zoo and wildlife biology, and I hope to have a career in either wildlife rehabilitation or working at a zoo. I have a good amount of experience with animals; I have been around animals my whole life, my grandfather was a veterinarian, and I have been pet sitting since high school. I also worked as a kennel attendant at Augusta Valley Animal Hospital. I currently volunteer at the Humane Society and have at the SPCA as well, walking dogs and performing other tasks. I am hoping to do some pet care over the summer to earn some money and get some more experience. I will be doing an internship 3-4 times a week, so my schedule may change by the week. I live a little bit out in the country, so we have some land and a private and safe road for walks. There is very little traffic, so it is a peaceful area. I have not yet hosted a client's pet in my home, but I have a lot of experience and can follow detailed instructions for your pet to provide them with the best care.

“Mandy was phenomenal and I know that Mickey enjoyed every minute of his time with her to the fullest extent of his heart!! She exhibits so much care and I'll definitely be continuing with her services, much to Mickey's delight!”

About: I have had dogs my entire life, from large to small! I have not only cared for my own pets, but I have cared for friends and families pets as well from a young age. I have experience with dogs that have anxiety and senior dogs that need extra care such as changing doggie diapers and administering pills. I would love to help care for your fur baby, and give them the care and love I give my own! I currently work four days a week as a dental assistant, so I am available on Mondays, as well as weekends to help care for your pet. Perfect for if you need a weekend getaway! I will make sure that your pet is crated or left where they need to be before leaving the home, and that the house is locked up. You can always know your pet and home will be safe with me.

About: I've always loved animals, from my first guinea pig at age 11 I was hooked! I have dog and cat sat in my neighborhood, and made friends with as many pets as I could. I'm not afraid to have fun with any dog big or small, and I'm more than open to bathing and grooming as well. I am also experienced in giving medication to pets who need it, mostly with pills but I've also learned how to do on skin treatment as well. I have taken care of everything ranging from snails and fish to birds and reptiles. I'm very passionate about giving all animals the affection and playtime they deserve. I would love to give your pets love and attention while you are away! I am currently a stay at home mom, so I will be able to stop by any time, and take care of anything your pets need! I have experience keeping pets separate when need be as well as encouraging socializing! Whatever your needs are I can provide plenty of play and love!

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs, 4 cats, a lizard, an axolotl, and fish. As long as I am given specific instructions for what is needed to care for a pet I can definitely do so! I have a sparse work schedule so can do mass petsitting essentially every days besides Friday and Saturday very consistently. Am very available for pretty much all times generally. I always make sure that animals are given a lot of attention, have their food and water bowls topped up as frequently as possible(and that the bowls are cleaned rather frequently), plan out walks for set periods, and try to always leave homes as clean or better as when I arrived.
