“Kayla came highly recommended from our neighbors and she was professional, respectful, engaging and the ultimate pet whisperer. Our 13y/o golden retriever and 2 y/o miniature dachshund took to her immediately, which was a great comfort. Thank you Kayla!!”


“Danielle took great care of my little Daisy! She came and walked her for 30mins for three days while I was at work. I would continue to request her for further puppy needs!!”


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, extra fees will apply depending on distance! 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

“Holiday week and work is crazy! Meredith walked porter 1.1 miles and gave him a much needed break. Thank you Meredith! I liked the pics of my dog during the walks, and I appreciated that Meredith was willing to come visit Porter a few days before walking him to let him get to know her.”


About: I have spent my whole life around dogs. From a young child to current day, I've always had a pet in my life. I have cared for outdoor dogs, indoor dogs, fish, and snakes. I've also cared for and been around most ages of dogs from 8 week puppies to elderly companions. I love spending time outdoors with them, sunshine, snow, pools, treks, mud, or wherever. My two kids are in school so I'll have plenty of time for your pet. My kids are comfortable around pets so even after school, I'm still available for care. I'm also available to board any day or night of the week. I'm close to parks and Pilot Mountain trails. I have plenty of backyard space for you pet to run and even a ramp entrance for pets with mobile difficulties. I have a backyard space for healthy walking/running. I have plenty of toys to keep your pet active and cushions for relaxing. I have a crate available if needed. I also have a dog of my own to keep your pet company. My dog is allowed on all the furniture in the house and yours is welcome to join in for cuddles.

About: For my house sitting experience I’ve had to stay overnight at my uncles house and my cousins many times and watch their dogs while they are gone, I’ve been doing that for probably 5 years. I’ve also house sat for friends and other families and taken care of their dogs (and cats!) for quite awhile. For dog walking I’ve always had dogs, I’m good at walking them but I’d prefer (especially) for bigger dogs to be trained for walking so They are not just pulling against me the whole walk. For drop in, I’ve had to do them for years whether your dog is on a specific schedule like my dads or not I can play with them feed them and any other specific doggy request. Same for cats, I’ve always had cats as well and I’ve never met one who didn’t like me :) I’m not professionally trained as I have not taken any classes. but I know how to help both choking cats and dogs! Or know how to help if any other emergency might happen. I'm currently only working part time so I have plenty of extra time to come walk with or just check in on your puppies or kitties! I’m always very careful to listen to pets body language and the boundaries they set for people they aren’t fully familiar with (especially cats) I won’t force your beloved pet to do anything they don’t want to do and I will guarantee I’m giving 110% to your animal anytime I see them :)

I am semi retired so I have plenty of time to take care of your animals as well as my own, I am pretty flexible all week as well as weekends.

“Cheyanne was an absolute pleasure to work with! I would recommend her to anyone needing a dog walker and I definitely plan on using her as services in the future. This was my first time using this service and I'm grateful that she provided me with updates and pix so that I could truly enjoy my vacation. My dog had an amazing time with her!”


About: Hi! I’ve always loved animals, had them growing up, have 2 of my own dogs, and can never get enough of all the dogs! Can’t wait to meet your pups! Ps - ask about my discounted rates. I’m very flexible with work. I work from home and I make my own hours. As long as I have enough time for my dog, I can usually make whatever work. I will follow your rules in your home. As for mine, my dogs are allowed on all the furniture and sleep in the bed.. they thinks they’re the queens.

About: I have taken care of a variety of animals, my own and others included, since as far back as 8 years old. I've always enjoyed taking care of animals of all shapes, sizes, and ages and it makes my heart happy to see my kids following in those footsteps as they get older as well. I have a husband of 10 years, which will occasionally be helping with some of the pet care, and we have 2 kids (ages 3 and 8) so you know your animals will get plenty of cuddles and play time. We all enjoy and love your pets like our own! Our pets of our own include chickens which are all kept inside of a fenced in area. We live on roughly 3 acres of "unfenced land" at the end of our paved neighborhood road. Included in that are a few scenic trails through the woods on our property, so that means we have plenty of space for your fur babies to have some play time outside in the yard, and walks through the neighborhood/trails for exploration, exercise, and relaxation throughout the day! We are here with open arms ready to care for your sweet babies and willing to learn about each of their individual needs to make sure we make them and you feel comfortable and part of our family in the process! From boarding overnight, to drop-in visits when you can't be there, to random play visits/walking your fur babies, or even meeting/helping you with multiple animals' vet visits..... No matter the job or type of animal, give us a try and you won't be disappointed! We can't wait to hear from you and to make you part of the fam! I am a full time stay-at-home mom/wife so I have plenty of time to devote to your fur babies to make sure they get all the love, care, and attention they deserve for whatever the job you may need for them! Depending on size, your pets are housed inside our home (when staying overnight with us) as one of the family. We have plenty of crates inside our house for individual sleeping spaces. We also use baby gates throughout the house to separate areas of our house so animals can be separated in their own spaces if and when needed. I always communicate quickly with clients and make sure to send lots of pictures to assure them of their pets experience and exceptional care with my family and I. I also provide each animal with an apple air tag just as a safety precaution when they are in my care for mine and my clients peace of mind.
