About: I have watched almost all species and sizes of pets! I have taken care of pets from young animals to seniors, and love all of them equally! I specifically have experience with rabbits, hamsters, lizards, turtles, chickens, horses, dogs and cats. As a pet parents to three cats, a dog and a bunny, I spend a lot of time caring for and playing with my own pets. I am a college student on break who has plenty of free time to watch and pamper other fur babies! I am a perfectionist when it comes to follow instruction specifically in animal care. I like to ensure that my animals along with the ones I care for are happy and healthy.

“Came home to a sweet, relaxed Pup. Thanks for the visit! Always appreciate your feedback after the walk along with all the other things that you do for our Pup.”

“I knew from the first meet and greet with Isabella that Ziggy would be in great hands. She sent updates and pics after each visit. I feel at ease leaving our Ziggy in Isabella's care and will definitely be using her again.”

About: Not only have I owned and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, I've also fostered at the Richmond SPCA, RACC, and Sanctuary Rescue for a cumulative 13+ years. I'm highly experienced in animal behavior, nutrition, and medical needs. I do know animal CPR and I have no issue administering meds. I love animals and I am extremely familiar with their behavior. Please contact me to care for your pets so you can be stress free! I work from home which allows me to make my own hours and I can drop in any time past 9am. I am also used to pets with medical issues and can come over whenever needed to issue medicine. I keep a tidy house with many rescue cats and dogs. We have numerous litter boxes that are scooped or cleaned daily. People who come to my house are always shocked that I have cats. My dogs are kept as part of the family and have a large back yard to run around in.

About: My first business venture, in elementary school, started with posting flyers in my neighborhood for my dog-walking business, to prove to my parents that I could take care of a family dog if we were to get one. It worked; we got our first family dog, and have been a dog family ever since! Now I have my own golden retriever named Koa who is the light of my life, loves coming with me anywhere he is allowed, and has yet to meet a stranger. I always have a surplus of love to give, especially when it comes to animals, and my post-pandemic job now provides me with plenty of flexibility. Let me love on your fur baby, too! My job is very flexible, so it’s easy for me to add things to my agenda day-of. I enjoy the spontaneity and adventure of this side-hustle. When you’re not home, your dog misses you. I’m just there to make them feel safe and connected to someone in the meantime. I take that responsibility seriously.

“Lynn was a fantastic dog walker! She came to meet our dog and listened to all his preferences and followed them! We’ve been doing some training on leash and she was clear and communicative about how he did. She took him on lovely long walks that paid attention to the heat. He was the happiest boy and we would eagerly book again!”

Kate M.

“Rachel has been my weekly sitter for about 3 months now, my pup and I both love her!!! I’ve seen a huge change in my dogs personality of being much happier since Rachel came into our lives. She takes him on nice LONG walks, takes great pictures, and is so so sweet and understanding of schedule changes. You will not be disappointed in having her watch your fur babies!!”

“Sidney is so wonderful with our sweet pug! We trust her deeply and she is a great communicator and very flexible with our somewhat unpredictable schedules.”

I have also completed an internship at the Nebraska Humane Society, I have done an internship as a Service Dog Trainer Assistant and I have shadowed a Behavior Veterinarian. I love all animals and will provide the best care possible! I am a full time student at Virginia Tech studying Animal and Poultry Science with scattered availability but I try to keep my Rover schedule up to date. I am comfortable working all types of personalities including animals with higher energy demands and ones with lower energy needs. I am also comfortable in and out of the house.

About: Being a dog and cat owner my whole life has taught me how much trust goes into leaving your pets with someone else. I have experience caring for all kinds of pets and understand the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, affection, and keeping pets on their normal routine. I have a flexible schedule amd am able to work from home. I genuinely enjoy making pet care part of my daily routine. As a dog and cat owner myself, I’m already used to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and helping keep your pets comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’ll always do my best to accommodate your pet’s normal routine and needs, and will treat them as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I always pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, leash safety, and each pet’s unique personality and comfort level. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I aim to create a calm, loving, and stress-free environment where they feel safe, secure, and well cared for.
