About: I am a firm believer that dogs are our best friends. Dogs deserve all the love and devotion they show us. I would love to drop by for a quick visit or a walk, or if you need care for longer my wife and our dog Belle would love to host your furry friend. Our backyard, quiet neighborhood, and proximity to the James River Park System is perfect for play time and longer walks. If you’re looking for a reliable friendly caretaker and or a fun place to stay for your pet, look no further. This is my full time commitment at the moment so pet care will be my top priority. My dog Belle gets all of the attention and won’t mind sharing. I have a fenced in yard at home that I share with my wife and our dog Belle. When it’s not too hot Belle gets a long walk every day, and can go in and out to the yard as she pleases. I will ensure I give the same level of care to your dog as I would my own both in and out of my home.

“Yajaira is one of the people that I know that make her pets feel like a family member. Not to long ago I saw how she suffered when one of her dogs got sick and she take care of him like a baby. He is not sick anymore because of her care. She is a competent and loving person with everybody.”
12. Tess W.
“Tess did a fantastic job taking care of my German Shepherd while I was away for a work trip! She exceeded expectations and met all of my dog’s needs! Because of her help, my dog is happy and healthy and I did not need to worry at all while I was away. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs help taking care of their pets!”

About: I am certain your pup will get the love and attention they need while they come stay with me! I have been dog sitting for about 7 years now. PLEASE READ Due to unexpected situations I have been put thru I am un able to watch dogs that have not been fixed. 8/10 times they have been too dominant and acted strange towards my dog who is fixed. I apologize in advance. I also would grateful appreciate if you have to cancel I know 1 week in advance so I can make other arrangements. I typically watch one dog at a time to ensure your pet is getting the love and attention they need. I understand things happen and plans get canceled but just letting me know as soon as possible will help allow me to make room on my calendar for another dog. I work from home so I will be around to keep an eye out and play with your dog(s). I have a fenced in yard as well with a big back yard for them to run around. I am also off 3 times a week so I can take your dog out for more adventures activities on those days. I have multiple rooms in the house to close off. We also have a medium sized crate if we must separate animals apart if need be. I will also be sure to send photos of your sweet fur baby

15. Lisa K.
“Lisa was Fantastic! I was in need of a last minute sitter for my high-energy dog, Tilly, and Lisa came over ahead of time to meet her and see where everything is at. She sent updates throughout and I never once worried whether Tilly was in amazing hands. I could not recommend someone more to take care of your dog.”

“She was great will deff try to use her services again.”
17. Veronica M.
“I highly recommend Veronica for anyone with animals - but especially those who have big crazy dogs and are nervous with leaving their pups with folks who might not be used to handling big crazy dogs! She is awesome and is very communicative. She goes above and beyond to make sure your baby is loved and cared for while you’re gone!!”
