About: I've had many years of experience between keeping my own animals as well as house sitting or just dropping in to check on your pets! I also offer the same service for reptiles! Preferably would like to service closer to Wytheville but will travel in some cases I currently have a full time job but I am looking to quit so I can focus on doing nails and going to school part time for that but I need a side hustle! I live in a school bus so I don't really have tons of room to take care of pets there but I am more than willing to come to their homes, I'd prefer that the pet is comfortable as possible and I cannot stay overnight in a home but I can stay as long as needed to make sure the care requirements are met

About: I have grown up around animals and have experience with sitting over night, taking them on walks, feeding on a schedule and more! I lived with a Golden Doodle in college for 2 years and help care for my sister’s dogs (Jack Russell Terrier & Lab Mix). 🐶 I am currently a full time graduate student looking so make some extra money. My schedule changes each semester, but I am able to be flexible most weeks. I can provide the assurance you need to trust me with your fur baby! I like to check in with the owners with updates and pictures, just so you are aware of how things are going. I am easy to talk to and can follow directions so that your pet feels comfortable with me!

“Katy was an AMAZING dog sitter! Our pup is a little anxious and she was so sweet making sure he was comfortable and happy. She sent us updates and pictures and was very quick to respond whenever I messaged her to check in. She stayed at our place and was a wonderful guest. We came home to a super clean house and everything exactly as we left it. Wally was definitely super happy when he was with her and I would 1000% use Katy again to dog/house sit!”

“Amber was great! We had an early start time and she was here in plenty of time. Our dog is a rescue and very anxious, Amber was able to keep him calm! I would use her again.”

About: I am a self-employed, stay-at-home mom who LOVES animals of all kinds, from bearded dragons to Bernese Mountain dogs, parakeets to Pekingese. Our current fuzzy companions include our Great Pyrenees, Rocky; two cats, Mrs. Kitty and Portland and 4 Peking ducks. Past menageries have includes chinchillas, hamsters, rabbits, rats, dogs, cats, parakeets, tarantulas and lizards. My husband and I have three girls, ages 3, 9 and 14, that I seem to have passed the animal obsession bug to. We have a huge property with a creek out front, so there is plenty of room right outside our door for exercise. We’d love to watch whatever you have, and will spoil them rotten with attention. We are athletic, outdoorsy people, so if you are looking for a dog walker, we would love to help out! We are happy to pick up and drop off as needed, and would love to help out with whatever you may need! We have two cats, four ducks and a dog, so I'm very used to caring for animals. Working your fur baby into our routine will be a pleasure! Your pet will be treated as our own and smothered with attention from our kids :) If you have any specific needs, please let me know! I can administer meds.

About: I have been fostering & training animals for rescues and shelters since 2009. I enjoy fostering because it helps more animals in the long run, I am great with animals that are unruly & have vet technician experience, so you can be sure your animal is in great hands when at my home or in my care, I love cats, dogs & caged animals & will go above and beyond for them. I can do things that most animal caretakers aren’t comfortable with, such as administer medications, light training, cleaning, bathing, grooming, even go pet shopping if needed! I will treat your babies as my own 😊 I have a huge yard & I live a few miles from a park with a walking trail. I own my business and work from home on my own schedule so I can work around my animal care schedule if needed. I have a 6 month old but can and will refrain from contact if needed. I have pets of my own as well as fosters at any given time, however my house is split level and plenty big enough to separate my animals from visiting one's to ensure safety.

About: “WE CAN JUDGE THE HEART OF A MAN BY HIS LOVE FOR ANIMALS ❤️.” I love pet sitting and treat your animals with love and kindness. I work part time as a contract nurse for local life insurance exams. My schedule is very open and flexible for pet sitting. Holidays and weekends book fast. I offer visits to your home for personalization and comfort. I look forward to an introductory visit to meet your pet and become familiar with their routine.
