Dog Walking in Broad Rock Sports Complex, Richmond, VA

“Riley was fantastic! We are new at this (first family dog) as we have a puppy and Riley was a huge help to jump in at the last minute. She was kind enough to fit us in her already tightly booked schedule as we were in a huge bind! She updated throughout the day with pictures and videos. Thanks Riley!! We will definitely contact her again!”

“kathleen did a great job with my pups while i was out of town. i will absolutely be booking with her again! i have three aussies - high energy and highly velcro. she spent a few weeks doing drop ins leading up to this trip to build trust with them. during my time away, she followed my instructions to a tee, sent long updates (which i loved), and lots of pictures! as a dog mom, i can read their expressions and they looked so happy in all their pics and that made me feel so relaxed while i was away.”

“Tatum was extremely helpful and sweet for looking out for my two dogs especially on short notice! She was great with following all of my instructions and I couldn’t be more grateful to have her walk my dogs! I would highly recommend Tatum to anyone looking for a new dog walker!”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have cared for my own golden retriever, Sunny, since he was a puppy. Sunny is now 5 years old, well-behaved, and friendly with other pets. My experience includes daily walks, playtime, and creating a safe, loving environment for dogs of all temperaments. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will get plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. I walk Sunny twice daily—morning and evening—and love spending time outdoors. My schedule is flexible, so I can accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays. I live in a one-level ranch-style home with a fully fenced-in backyard, perfect for safe outdoor play. My home is quiet, clean, and pet-friendly. Sunny is gentle and social, making him a great companion for visiting pets. I treat every dog like family and prioritize their comfort and safety.

About: Hello there! My name is Sammy and I have been around animals all of my life and they have inspired me in so many different ways. I have been managing doggy daycare/boarding facilities for a little over 3 years now so I guess you can say pet care is my specialty! I am dog and cat CPR certified, certified through the DHA (dog handler academy),I know how to give injections, and my knowledge on dog behavior is quite extensive. I have decided to go back to school as well which is why my schedule is so open. Currently I own a 2 year old Golden Retriever as well as the cutest cat ever that are both my world. I hope you decide to let me into your pets heart as I treat every pet like my own. ~Wags & Wiggles, Sammy🐾 I am going back to school which means I have a very open schedule. I am also pretty flexible with times and last minute bookings. When it comes to a clients home,I always like for us to meet before I start my services so everyone feels more comfortable. I will also provide pictures for my clients of your fur baby & I having a good time!

“Lisa is an excellent dog walker! She was prompt and took Tut on a long walk for an hour where he was able to burn some energy and then relax/nap afterwards till I got home from work. Will definitely work with her again”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 20 years — not just as a sitter, but as a lifelong animal person. I live with two cats and two dogs (aka my little chaos crew), and I’ve been through it all: administering meds, soothing anxious pups, helping senior pets feel safe and loved, and even caring for a dog with epilepsy. I know how to read their body language, honor their boundaries, and make every visit feel like a familiar, comforting ritual. I also rescue animals when I see them in need — whether that’s coaxing a stray into safety, getting them vet care, or helping them find their forever home. I don’t just like animals — I see them, respect them, and care deeply about their safety, happiness, and autonomy. When your pet is with me, they’re not just getting fed and walked. They’re getting a friend, an advocate, and someone who truly gets them. I work from home and have a lot of flexibility. I would prefer long standing customers with at least one weekly walk to stay on my schedule. I do have a fenced in yard we could use for play. Though I would prefer to take dogs for walks in their neighborhoods or at the river. I am happy to play fetch, tug, go on long hikes, or take short strolls. Each animal must have their collar on with their owner's information.

About: I'm a professional dog trainer, and I've been working with animals professionally for over 10 years, and I have had dogs and cats in my family ever since I was born, and grew up training and walking them. I have had the pleasure of having two golden retrievers, a border collie, and now I have a 4 year old black lab named Rosie, and tortoiseshell cat who acts like a dog. Even though I train dogs and their humans, I walk dogs as supplemental income, and I would love to meet your little (or big) bundles of joy! I’m currently self-employed, so my schedule varies. But I am typically available on Mondays and Thursdays, but I will update my schedule weekly or monthly to reflect what my schedule really looks like. I have the experience to exercise dogs who are a little more on the high-energy side, or dogs who just want to sniff everything outside for a while and then get some pets and snuggles.

“Great communication and timely arrival!”

“Pedro is wonderful! Tali was in good hands. He came over beforehand to meet her and learn more about her. We will definitely use Pedro again!!”

About: I have had dogs, cats and birds my entire life. I will treat your fur babies as I would treat my own. Nothing but love I am at home all day as I am an artist. And work from home. I work out of the home 3 evenings a week. I have a large back yard. It is not fenced in but I do have a 25ft lead or I can simply walk them. I have 2 pet parakeets and a Great Dane that recently went to heaven at almost 12. Pets are always allowed on my couches and beds and I miss the snuggles.

About: Hi, I'm Miki! I've had dogs my whole life, and adopted one of my very own (Scout) about 4 years ago! With several years of personal and professional experience, I'm confident I can provide a happy and safe space for your pet. :) As a dog owner, I know how hard it can be to find someone you trust with your pet, and my goal is to give my client's peace of mind knowing that their babies are being cared for just as I would my own dog! At the moment, I only host one dog at a time to make sure they get my full attention (or two from the same household). I have a ton of experience and knowledge with dogs, but particularly anxious/reactive dogs and am always happy to accommodate any special needs/requests. I work from home a few days a week and have an open weekend schedule, so Scout and I would love having another friend around to keep us company! We typically go on a minimum of 3 walks a day (morning, afternoon and night) for anywhere from 20 minutes- 1+ hours. Between walks, I have plenty of toys and mentally stimulating gadgets that Scout would be happy to share. :) While I don't have a yard, my neighborhood is the perfect dog-friendly spot with lots of trails, streams and parks! If your dog is hanging with us, you can expect an itinerary full of very dog centered activities (as usual) haha. I'm experienced working with low and high energy dogs and more than happy to follow your dogs typical schedule- whatever that may be! To maintain safe and calm environment for all pets, I do require that dogs are crate trained and feel comfortable being crated if I need to leave the house for a short time.

“Ashley is very sweet and communicative, she follows directions. she also took great care of my baby and look forward to another walk soon! Thank you so much for taking care of him!”

About: I'm Recently retired, I've owned and cared for pets most of my natural life. From house training to hospice care, I've lived thru it all. Freshly retired, I've got lots of free time to care for your pets. I'm looking forward to meeting and caring for your awesomely precious pet! I have a large fenced in yard and one very friendly mini- Dachshund. I consider pets to be family members, and always treat them as such.

About: I have experience with large dogs (85lbs+) to small dogs (10lbs-), Cats & kittens, and senior animals. Animals in recovery. Reptiles, rodents to fish. Any animal you name it!! I’m a very active person and love being outdoors, would love to have a cutie fur buddy to join me and explore RVA! Would love to care for yours like my own <3 I go on daily walks and live very very close to a huge public park! I’m able to do daily drop ins, over night stays or whatever your needs may be!

“Thank you so much for keep my girls cool on this hot day! Please help yourself to a La croix in the fridge to help cool yourself and daughter down as well if you need.”

About: I have always had pets growing up from dogs of different sizes to bunnies and bird. Recently I have been taking care of my dog Dutch. He suffered from seizures all his life, so I have experience in bigger dogs and one with health issues. I have full availability. It may change due possibly picking up a part time job as I am preparing for a year long college course. Putting my dog through behavioral courses has helped me with heel training. So walking dogs of any size won't be an issue for me. Especially with it being so hot recently making sure the asphalt isn't too hot and not keeping dogs out for too long.

About: Hi, my name is Yae, and I’m a devoted ally to your furry friends! I've been caring for pets my entire life, growing up surrounded by dogs of all shapes and sizes. Whether big or small, I love them all! Currently, I have a well-trained and socialized Rottweiler who adores playing with friendly dogs and cats. If your pet isn't the most sociable, no worries at all—I can easily separate them to ensure everyone feels comfortable. In some cases, my dog may not be with me, so just let me know, and I’ll be all theirs for the day! Your pet's happiness and well-being are my top priority! I work from home so I’m available to look after your pet daily. If there’s a moment where I have to leave I can crate the baby if that’s okay with the owner but I will make sure that it isn’t super long. I’m pretty flexible throughout the week to look after your pet, so just let me know and we should be able to work something out. I live in a nice neighborhood. Many of neighbors have pets. Plenty of space for them to play and take them out for walks at anytime. I also have a nice fenced in backyard for the pups to run around in. In home I have plenty of room for them to roam as they please I don’t mind them on my furniture. I’m also flexible to look after the owners dogs at their space or just drop in for a little walk.

About: Growing up in a house full of dogs, fish, hamsters (you name it we had it!) I’ve always been caring for animals. Even in college I was the friend people called when they needed a petsitter. Now as a veterinary assistant I work with animals every day and learn new ways to care for them and get them what they need. Since I work four days a week at the animal hospital I have plenty of free time on my days off, and welcome to extra excerise! My dog is always harnessed and leash walked since we don’t have a fenced in yard. I am very comfortable with many kinds of dog harnesses and with walking multiple dogs at once.

About: Ive had 3 dogs apart of my family since almost before I was even able to walk. I’ve always had a love for pets & have taken care of them for a number of years. Ive had many years of experience in feeding, walking, bathing, & playing with all types of pets! Would love to share the experience with your furry little friend! I am great company for your fur companion & am always keeping an eye out for their safety! They will always feel safe & loved with me! I am willing & able to do overnight stays during the weekdays to cater to your pets! My weekends are always open also for you and your pets needs! I will be sure to follow any and all pet care directions/instructions needed to ensure your pet has a great time while being looked after!
