About: I’ve cared for my two cats for the past 6 years and have always loved animals of all kinds! Whether its feeding, cleaning, playtime, or giving extra cuddles, I treat every pet as if they were my own! I work from home in the Henrico/West End area, so I’m very flexible schedule wise to check in on your pet. Feel reach out with your specific needs. I have 2 cats myself for 6 years.

“Sierra was wonderful! Her notes were thorough with each visit and she gave me such wonderful peace of mind. I know cats are easy but I’m still particular about how they get taken care of and she definitely met that need!”
About: I have plenty of shelter experience and worked at Petsmart for 3 years in my past. I've always been around animals whether it was to watch them for someone else or from owning them myself. I've owned many small rodents (rats, mice, hamsters, guinea pigs), fish (betta), and cats/dogs (big and small). You can trust your animal will be in great hands with me no matter what! I have open availability! Whether you need drop ins, overnight stays, feedings, or simply a dog walker. Let me know what your animal needs and you will be in good hands! Unfortunately I can't accommodate your animal in my space. I will have to watch your pets in your space, but I will give your pet them every bit of respect and care they deserve.

“Tiffany came over to meet us and our dogs ahead of our first appointment and it’s clear that she is a dog lover! Our puppy escaped from his crate before her first visit and she rushed over there early to rescue him. She even cleaned up the mess he made! She took great care of our dogs and we are currently booked on a recurring basis with her.”
“Mei Lin was super friendly and respectful to us and our dog, Riley. She sent picture updates of our puppy and communicated with us about how our dog was doing during her visit . Our dog loved her as much as we did! I will definitely be inviting her back to take care of Riley. :)”
“Kiera was wonderful. She bonded quickly with Cary and she would greet Kiera at the door with her “purr engine” humming. I really appreciated the pictures that she sent. I highly recommend Kiera. Her love of all animals is quite apparent. I don’t often leave on trips, but Kiera is at the top of my list when I do. Five stars. Would hire again.”

About: I’ve taken care of my two family dogs my whole life. My first dog was a 30 pound cockapoo who lived to the age of 15. I grew up with him learning how to feed him and take him on walks. I even learned how to be gentle with him in his old age to ensure he was happy and comfortable. My other dog is 9 now, he is an 80 pound mutt who has lots of energy and I feed him, take him on walks, and play with him in and outdoors. I can handle all kinds of things pets love to throw at their owners and I’m looking forward to meeting yours! I am currently in school, so my work schedule rotates around my classes and whenever I am able to care for your pets I can! I can do overnight visits or drop in between my classes. Whatever’s convenient for you!! I will ensure to treat your home and pet with the upmost respect and ensure everything is exactly the way that you would like it. When caring for your pet, I’ll be sure to take every precaution so that they are safe and your privacy is respected. For example, locking gates behind me, closing the door all the way so no one escapes, and closing the food bin so no one can break into it! I will strive to do whatever will make you and your pets the most comfortable.
