“I was so impressed with Kim. She took care of my dog, Nala, for the weekend. It was the first time leaving her with someone she really didn’t know, so she was a little hesitant at first, but Kim was patient with Nala and they soon became good buds! Nala is as Kim says ‘a unique bundle’ and she is completely right and really took great care of her. Kim put me at ease with daily pictures and updates. Also, when I came back home, I really appreciated how it looked just like how I left it. Thank you so much Kim! Will definitely use her services again!”
“Devynn was wonderful. I was on a cruise and didn’t have service so she made sure to keep in contact with my mom until I could check in. Mumfy seemed so happy. She sent pictures every day. I will definitely use her again.”
About: I’m a counselor during the school year and have side jobs to supplement my income. Kids and animals love me as I love them even more! ;) For the pets that I fall in love with, I will maintain those services throughout the entire year. I have a therapy dog that works along side me. I’ve given medicine, bathe them, love them and be their fill in mommy until you return. ;) I’m also open to discussing the costs. ***Currently I don’t have any pets of my own so I have a lot of flexibility. The therapy dog is a volunteer. I have a lot of flexibility as this is my only job at the moment. I am off during the summers so I enjoy working with animals. During the school year I’m a school counselor. I feed them, provide love, walks, and play with them. I am happy to have your kennel here for them to feel comfortable in their little home.
“Victoria was amazing with our dog while we were gone. Our older dog unfortunately passes away a week before we left town and we couldn’t change our plans so we were so worried about our younger dog. Victoria gave her lots of love and attention and made sure she was kept occupied a lot so she didn’t get sad. She even brought her dogs over to play with her and brought them to our dog park. We couldn’t have been more grateful to her for taking such good care of our baby. We would recommend her 100%”
“Libah was amazing! During our meet and greet, she asked questions and took notes to make sure Trix was given the best care. She made sure to use Trix’s routine to ensure her happiness. Libah was great with communication while I was gone. I never had to worry about what was happening at home.”
“Cassidy was a thoughtful and prepared sitter. She provided an update about our pup every morning and was quick to change plan to adjust to our pup’s needs. She utilized the resources we had at the house to ensure our pup was getting enough stimulation outside of walks. Cassidy was thoughtful in ensuring both household and pet needs were met while we were away. We would love to have Cassidy back.”
“Genie did a great job taking care of Susa. She very kindly arrived earlier when we realized the concert started earlier then we had thought. We recommend Genie and will use her help again!”
“Our first experience with Rover, and with having someone -other than family- care for our (very needy) bengal kitty. I’m happy to say, Erin was great! She made us feel completely at ease leaving her alone in our home with Desmond. Desi loved her and looked for her after she left :( She is intuitive, cares a great deal and was super communicative, sending texts regularly, which was very much appreciated. We would absolutely call on Erin any time we need a sitter!”
About: I've been pet sitting privately for over eight years and added energy healing (BioEnergetic Synchronization Technique) to my repertoire for animals and people in 2023. I'd be happy to direct you to my personal site for testimonials or share some of the 50+ five-star reviews I've amassed on other platforms. Animals take to me very quickly, and I absolutely adore them! I have many regulars who reach out to me before anyone else because they feel complete peace of mind when I am with their pets. I know how important that is and love to provide that with an abundance of photos and updates. BEST energy work helps heal physical issues, as well as emotional challenges, like separation anxiety. Please note that while I love and do B.E.S.T. with all animals, at this time I am generally only accepting live-in pet sitting requests with cats. I do much of my work remotely, and even my most food-forward feline regulars allow me to focus fully when I'm holding a session. Most of them even curl up right next to me. Due to the nature of my remote energy work, I am only accepting cat sits at this time. They tend to love my work as much as my play! I stick to whatever schedule and routines the animals are already used to, unless otherwise requested. I am very sensitive to animals' needs and catch on very quickly if they need anything.
About: I grew up in a household with eight cats and four dogs, my parents were big into animals. I had my own bulldog for a number of years (she passed away recently) and currently have two cats of my own. I’ve picked up more dog poop and cleaned out more cat litters than I can count over the years.. I work entirely from remote, so my availability is always open to housesit or pet sit. I can be gone weeks at a time without it being a real burden. My cats have an automatic feeder and automatic litter cleaner so I don’t have to worry about them when I go away. I also have two roommates so they help take care of them when I’m out so they don’t get lonely. I walk, clean up after, feed, groom, even bathe, client’s animals. And I have it pretty easy with my current cats, they have an automatic feeder and a litter box that cleans itself automatically. So they’re pretty easy-going.
About: Richmond native welcoming fur babies of all shapes & sizes from Chihuahua to Pyrenees! I prefer drop in visits for large dogs and cats and if they like car rides we can go to many dog friendly places! I like to board one pet at a time, or two if they live together for safety reasons. Note: Meet and greets for new clients before booking is required, thanks! I have a part time and available after 3pm to assist. I am available holidays, weekends, and most evenings. Excited to accommodate the needs of your fur babies while you are away! Able to follow all medical guidelines received from pet owners, if any. Certified in pet First Aid/CPR. I have experience giving medications to dogs and cats. Keeping your fur babies hydrated and comfortable while you are away is number one on my list! Crates (fur baby beds) are required for high energy pets. We will go on walks 2-4 times a day. 🐕🦺🚶♀️
“Rabekah was fabulous. Responded quickly and professionally to all communications, very sweet with our dogs, and went above and beyond in so many ways. We have one difficult dog that she won over quickly, and was patient with any additional needs. Will definitely book again.”
About: Growing up, I always had pets: dogs, cats, hamsters, mice, fish, guinea pigs, and birds. I loved animals, and I still do. My home is very clean, not just for myself but for them as well. Pets have always been a soft spot for me, and I make time for them every day. I can’t remember a time without furry friends in my home! I’m observant and attentive to every pet’s personality. I make sure they feel comfortable in their favorite spots, whether it’s their bed or a special corner in your home. I follow all instructions carefully from meals and treats to medications and routines to give your pet the care they deserve.
“Kiersten was lovely! She kept me updated with pictures all weekend and left my apartment spotless. I definitely felt comfortable leaving my dog with her for two nights and am thankful I did!”
About: I have taken care of pets and been around them since I was 5. My family and friends usually rely on me to watch over their pets when they are gone. I just graduated high school and I’m just looking for something that will keep me busy during summer. I am barely ever busy so my schedule is very flexible. I have a fenced in yard and a VERY friendly dog that will he keep your furry buddy company. I am also able to commute very easily.
About: I've had pets in my home as long as can remember, I love animals. I love going on walks, playing ball or tug of war, or just a belly rub and snuggle. I treat every pet as if it were my own and enjoy figuring out what makes them tick. Your pet's peace of mind and happiness are always a priority. I would gladly provide updates and photos while you are away, rest assured they are in good hands. I am currently working part time and enjoy a flexible schedule. I know that we can find a schedule that works for all of us. I am an empty nester with a longtime boyfriend; we have been in Florida for almost two years and have recently settled in Sarasota. I have enjoyed getting to know different parts of the state and look forward to more exploring.
“Nicole was a fantastic find. We rescued Ellie Mae 3 weeks ago, but had a planned family vacation and no one to leave her with. We decided it would be best for Ellie Mae to leave her in the home she was becoming accustomed to and have someone stay here. We had a meet and greet with Nicole and were immediately impressed with her. She sent texts with pictures and stayed in touch the entire time we were gone. Just a few of the things she did that we didn’t ask for or expect was clean the house, run the dishwasher, wash towels and water the plants. We could not be more pleased with her and highly recommend Nicole.”

The moment Mary walked into the yard both of my dogs sat at her feet in total comfort ( they can be picky). She is a total delight to get to know and to work with and to take care of your fur babies. She’s very responsible, communicative, conscientious. I will ask her to pet sit again and again. I highly recommend Mary as a dependable pet sitter.
Nick stayed in our house to watch our mini dachshund while we were away for 5 days. This was the first time we had left her like this and with a stranger so we were nervous. Nick was a great communicator, sent tons of photos, and followed directions well. We came home to a happy pup!
We are so grateful to have found Stephanie. Our sweet poodle Justice came home the day before from surgery and we were nervous to leave her with a stranger. However Stephanie's calm presence and obviously love for animals came through and Justice was very open to her. Stephanie communicated with us while we were away as well as shared photos. I look forward to having Stephanie come again or Justice going to her home.
There isn’t enough room to express how amazing Nicole is! She went above and beyond to make sure this dog mama felt secure with leaving her animals! Pictures every day along with amazing communication. She even left holiday cards with pictures of our babies. Nicole is the only person I want to watch my “kids” from here out. My only concern is my animals might start to love her more than my husband and I.
Isabella did a great job looking after Lincoln(dog) and Oliver(cat) while we were away. They were well taken care of and she gave them a lot of attention. She sent lots of photos to reassure that they were doing just fine! My family and I are looking to have her take care of Lincoln and Oliver again really soon! Thank you Isabella! (:
Christine is the best! Professional & took exceptional care of our dog & cat this weekend!!! She left our house in immaculate condition. And our fur babies are happy & healthy!! We will definitely ask her to stay with our pets again! Highly recommend Christine!
Sophia did a terrific job dog sitting our very active terrier in our home for 6 days. She was loving towards him and sent us daily reports and cute photos. She also picked up our mail and newspapers and left our house neat and clean. We can highly recommend Sophia!
