“Very professional and efficient. Sent lots of pictures and videos! She was amazing!”

“Zadie enjoyed her day stay at Andreea's today. The shady back yard was a perfect exercise spot in this hot, muggy Richmond weather. Andreea let me know via message that Zadie wasn't so interested in her food, which she made up for when she returned home! Guess she was having too much fun interacting with Andreea's two pups to think about eating. Smooth booking, arrival and departure.”

“We ❤️ Sheri!! She has watched my pup on my long class days for two semesters now and he now knows when we are almost at her house and gets so excited! It’s so nice knowing he is somewhere that he loves and gets lots of walks and snuggles when I can’t be there!”

Jesse S.

“Great experience leaving my three dogs with Vanessa. I would definitely use her services again. She was very communicative and flexible with our needs.”

Caleb G.

“Paula was wonderful! We were visiting from out of town and she took our booking even though it was short notice. Our dog had a great experience and Paula was responsive and kind.”

Shea W.

“Elizabeth was very easy to book. She took pictures and sent them to me throughout the stay. Elizabeth took Cooper for long walks and really genuinely cared for him. I will be booking again!”

“Our pup has been seen back since he was a little baby. I really appreciate that he can have multiple dogs at once and be so thoughtful about pairing up dogs that will play well/safely together. Zach notices the sweet little things that we love about our baby, and it means a lot that he cares enough to notice Pax’s changes as he grows up. Pax is ecstatic when we pull up to Zach’s house, comes home tired from a day full of fun. Thank you for being there for us, especially for our last-minute requests like today!”

“Lovely folks who understand dogs well. My dog was well cared for; she enjoyed playing outside & taking it easy inside, where she was allowed to be herself.”

About: Hi, I’m Nuoya, and I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets are family, and I’m dedicated to providing the same love, attention, and care they receive at home. Over the years, I have different pets myself(currently I have 2 dogs, a goldendoodle and a mini schnauzer). I’ve cared for pets with diverse needs, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets requiring special attention. I’m also comfortable administering medications, following detailed feeding schedules, and accommodating special care instructions. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, a cozy staycation while you’re away, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to ensure their happiness and well-being. What You Can Expect Plenty of cuddles and playtime Regular updates with photos/videos A safe and comfortable environment Reliable and trustworthy care I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and make their time away from you as stress-free and enjoyable as possible! Let’s connect and discuss how I can help. Both my husband and I work from home, so we're home 24/7; we do walk our own dogs 2-3 times per day, and go to park at least once a week during the weekend. I have a fenced backyard for safe outdoor play and a second floor, offering a quiet space if your kitty prefers to stay away from my dogs. Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to provide potty breaks as often as your fur baby needs.

“Elizabeth is great, has a safe environment and is attentive to your dogs needs. Sheba warmed up to her right away and will be staying with them again.”

“Jax seemed really happy to go back, nice guy. Only complaint, and not a horrible thing, all other Rover's send updates and pictures throughout the day, we didn't get anything like that, but Jax went on 2nd day and was really happy to see him, so not a deal breaker”

My family and I love hanging out at home in our backyard when weather is nice and spending time with our animal crew.

Your pup will be able to go on long walks and adventures as our neighborhood has lots of trail options! My kids are in school most of the day, and are very responsible and good with all animals. Your pup will get lots of socialization and love with us. Your fur baby will be in good hands with us!

About: My family calls me the dog whisperer. I babysit for the family frequently and sometimes 7 months at a time when son deploys. Love dogs! I like to go out in the morning and then home for the day. I enjoy being outside and will keep the pet company inside or out. The pets are part of the family. We are still missing our own dogs but not ready for new ones yet. In a few years…

“Stephanie was a wonderful person and took good care of Simba. She was flexible with our drop off and pick up times and kept updating us regularly with Simbas pictures. We will definitely recommend Stephanie and gladly leave our baby with her next time Thanks”

About: I don’t have a lot of professional experience yet, but I truly love animals and take care of them with patience and responsibility. Friends and neighbors have trusted me with their pets, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I can take everyday if it’s at my house or it’s staying at my house over night! If I have to go somewhere or someone’s house so on the weekends Я всегда слежу за тем, чтобы питомцы чувствовали себя безопасно и комфортно — как у меня дома, так и в доме клиента. Я строго соблюдаю все инструкции по кормлению и выгулу, поддерживаю чистоту и уделяю животным постоянное внимание. Я отношусь к каждому питомцу бережно и уважительно, чтобы он чувствовал себя спокойно, счастливо и уверенно.

About: I have pet care experience both in my home country and here in the U.S. Friends and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their pets with love. I’m a student with mostly online classes, so I’m usually at home. I’m away on Monday–Thursday mornings, while my mom is only away on Monday and Wednesday mornings. This means that except for those times, there is always someone at home to care for your pet. It’s a perfect environment for pets who get lonely and need extra company. I live in a safe and pet–friendly apartment. While I don’t have a private yard, our neighborhood has beautiful walking paths that pets love to explore. My home is cozy and secure, and I make sure pets always feel comfortable, cared for, and never left alone. It’s the perfect environment for pets to feel safe, happy, and loved.

“Millie had a good time with Ali. She enjoyed playing in the large fenced in yard. They were thoughtful with her care with great communication!”
