“Both my dog and I think Claire is the best! She was professional, prompt and a good communicator. And - she went above and beyond - giving Coltrane long walks and lots of attention. I totally recommend her and Coltrane gives her a big paws up, too!”
“Anna is amazing. I have been using her every weekday for the past 4 weeks and my German Shepherd puppy loves her and still gets so excited when Anna comes to pick him up for his afternoon walk while I am at work. She is very attentive and provides thorough updates/pictures of how he did on his walk. I wouldn’t want to use anyone else to walk him.”
About: As a passionate animal advocate, I've had the privilege of serving as the Foster Care Coordinator at the Gloucester-Mathews Humane Society for 1 year, while also volunteering with shelters throughout my adult life. Additionally, I'm a Certified Veterinarian Assistant, and my life's journey has been enriched by sharing it with diverse animals, from beloved domestic pets like dogs and cats, to hospice and senior animals. I'm committed to providing your cherished pets with the same love, care, and compassion that I've devoted to my own. I am thrilled to be available Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm. If you have a special request for different hours, I invite you to share your needs and I will eagerly discuss and arrange a solution that works for you. I will nurture your fur babies with the same love and devotion I would shower upon my own precious little ones. With my extensive shelter experience, I have been blessed to work with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, temperaments and life stages. I have had the joy of caring for rambunctious puppies and the privilege of providing comfort to senior dogs and cats.

About: I’ve had all kinds of pets since I was a little girl! Especially dogs and cats so I’m very in tune with animals and what their needs are and can be and I always have plenty of love and attention to give them. I’ve housesitted for friends and family while they’ve been on vacation before, leaving me responsible for feeding, walks, changing litter, playtime and cuddles! I’ve also rescued and rehomed stray kittens and adult cats during my teenage years and have had volunteer experience dog walking at the Human Society in Memphis more recently. I’m available most weekdays and my weekend schedule is flexible! I travel often but am very transparent and communicative about days that I’ll be out of town. All my care services are offered in the owners home to ensure Pet's comfort being in their own home and comfort zone. Every care engagement I do starts with an essential, thorough owner checklist for their pet(s). This covers: Pet specs (names,breeds etc.), emergency vet contact; feeding & exercise requirements and especially Pet(s) personality, favorite treats, fears etc. Ensuring pet care and companionship that gives Owners REAL peace of mind is my priority.
About: i've taken care of dogs since I was 11 and I've had a cat for almost ten years now. I love spending time with all breeds!

I have a fenced in back yard and will crate them if you see fit.
About: I've loved animals since I was a kid and have cared for many throughout my life! I was tasked with raising my family dog since she was a puppy when I was in high school, and I helped my college roommate with her puppy! I have walked/boarded many dogs and cats since moving to Virginia! Being in the military, my coworkers travel a lot so I have become the workplace's go-to "pet auntie." I genuinely love to spoil pets and providing them with a safe and homey environment while their loved ones are out! I have a fairly flexible work schedule so I can come back to my home or to your home to take care of your pet! Early morning, lunch, and evenings are especially free, so I can work around that depending on your needs. I do not own pets, so they will be here as a single child in the case they are boarded! Crates, food, litter boxes, etc will need to be provided as I don't own those things. I have access to many parks around my neighborhood, so walkability is not an issue!
About: I have had pets all my life! We have had cats and dogs growing up. As an adult, we have even had chickens! I love playing with all sorts of fur babies! Not to mention extra snuggles!

So this would give me the availability I would need to help you and your busy schedule!! Your pets would be taken care of in your home. I feel this is the most comfortable and stress-free way for your pets. Whatever their routine is, they will have the same as if you were home with them!

Trenton L.
“Hello,my name is Teresa Joyner,I fell and broke my back February 9th. I reached out to my friend Trenton Lyles to see if he could help me walk my 3 dogs,and he graciosly agreed to help me. I have 2 pit bulls ,Angel and Nala,and a hound dog Freddie. They all feel in love with Trent. He NEVER missed a day in over 2 months, always on time,and went over and beyond in helping me during my recovery. He would go to the grocery store for me, bring in my chewy.com orders due to me not being able to lift heavy objects,the list just goes on and on. I highly recommend this young man. He is an animal lover and excelled at every task asked of him.”
Yuna L.
“Yuna is an amazing dog sitter and walker! My husband and I have had her keep our somewhat anxious and reactive dog Morty 3 or 4 times and every time Morty comes back to us content and ready to continue life at his normal pace and schedule without needing to be retrained on anything! She’s the best.”
Kellee B.
“When I say there is no one better to trust with your dogs, I don’t make that statement lightly. Kellee is friendly, attentive and treats your dogs as if they are her own. My dog doesn’t trust new people easily. As soon as she met Kellee she curled up next to her with her head in Kellee’s lap. If you want to be able to travel with piece of mind then Kellee is the perfect choice.”

Stephanie A.

Charity P.
“Let me begin by saying that my dogs are my children and I treat them as such! I am very critical of who I allow to care for them. That being said, I HIGHLY recommend Charity Pitts! She treats my dogs as if they were her own. She is reliable, trustworthy and goes above and beyond. My dogs adore her and that means everything to me. It is apparent from the moment you see her interact with your dog that it is not just a business to her, it is her passion. The peace of mind in knowing that my dogs are well cared for is priceless.”
Connor D.
“Always treated my dogs like a priority and is punctual and kind. Able to handle bigger dogs and has never reported a problem she couldn’t handle.”
