Pet Sitting Bumpass

“Allison is a awesome pet caregiver. We had just moved to the area and had to go out of town for eight days and she did a fanominal job taking care of my cat. Highly recommend.”

About: I have owned and taken care of family cats and dogs for 10 years. I've pet sat for friends/family before and given pills/oral medicine when needed. I can walk dogs, and do most of the daily tasks (feeding, litter boxes, etc) your pet needs! I've worked with pets in a professional capacity as a veterinary assistant, so I'm comfortable around all kinds of animals, big and small. I also worked with songbirds for several years while at university and can handle, feed, and care for them. Your pet will be happy and safe in my hands and you can rest easy while away from home! When I'm a clients home I take care to ensure everything is left better than how I found it. I keep everything clean and tidy. Your pet deserves the best care. I am taking the summer off before graduate school so I have a relatively open schedule for walks, drop in visits, etc. Just chat with me to set up a time or schedule that will work best with me!

“thank you so much Connally for taking such good care of my babies. I am so sorry. I forgot to either leave you the code or to turn off the alarm system. Thank you so much. Safely home now.🤓❤️ thank you as well for the beautiful watercolor, painting and honor of seeing that is so kind of you. I will treasure it.”

About: Hi! I'm Reis, a dependable and active animal lover with both professional and personal pet care experience. I previously worked at a dog boarding facility where I supervised doggie daycare, monitored group play, and helped ensure dogs stayed safe, happy, and well cared for throughout the day. This experience taught me how to work with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and energy levels. In addition to my professional experience, I have provided overnight house-sitting and pet-sitting services, caring for pets in their own homes and maintaining their regular routines while their owners were away. I understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable and secure, and I strive to provide attentive, loving care that gives both pets and owners peace of mind. As someone with an active lifestyle, I enjoy spending time outdoors and can provide plenty of exercise, walks, playtime, and companionship. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a weekend sitter, or just some extra attention during the day, I'll treat them with the same care and respect I would give my own. I currently work a part-time job that allows me to have a lot of flexibility. I am able to work in all of Richmond and surrounding areas as well. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. Through my experience working at a dog daycare facility, overnight house-sitting, and caring for both a senior dog and a young dog of my own, I've learned that every pet has different needs and energy levels. Whether your pet prefers a relaxed walk and extra patience or lots of activity and play, I'll make sure they receive personalized care and feel safe, happy, and loved.

“We cannot recommend Toni enough! She was so great with our dogs and her communication was amazing. She texted pictures and updated us throughout her visits and we would 100% trust her to take care of our pups again. Looking forward to booking with Toni in the future!”

“Keitha did an amazing job watching our cat. He was comfortable around her to come out to play and be pet which is a good sign to me. I definitely recommend booking with her!”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life. Therefore, I am well equipped to take care of dogs of all ages and of all breeds. I am currently a Masters student at UVA who is home for the summer. There are a few weekends I may be out of town but those should be marked on my calendar!! I will meet your pets needs, whatever that may mean for them as an individual. I will specialize my care for them based off of their personal needs to ensure they are both mentally and physically well.

About: I’ve been around all kinds of dogs, from small to big, untrained to well trained, and i absolutely love helping and working along side of other people and their fur babies. Right now is a very convenient time. I’m looking to start school soon so not working full time. And have a lot of time on my hands. For example I have three dogs of my own, 2 are outside 1 is inside. Apollo(my indoor dog) gets walked several times a day and fed once. Also I try to get my dogs out and socialized whenever I can. I would be providing the same love and care to future clients dogs as well. At least what is permitted by clients of course.

“Janie took excellent care of our 2 senior dogs and these girls are some what difficult. She administered their medication. This is the 2nd time we have used Janie. She accommodated our short notice and changing schedule. We would recommend Janie and we would have her pet sit for us again.”

About: I’m a healthcare worker who loves pets! We had 2 Shetland sheepdogs growing up. I have raised 2 chihuahua puppies, and one needed multiple eye surgeries and follow up care. I have consistently sat for and walked friends dogs (multiple at a time). I have taken in a neighbors cats for months after an emergent situation, and my family members have cats a well. No pet too big or too small! I love them all :) I am currently working part time 2-4 days a week so I will have a lot of time to care for your pets! On my off days I’m available any time, especially day time. I can meet your pet care needs! At home we have an open field but also a fenced in area and two small dogs which can play or be separate. I can follow your schedule as far as potty and walks and am able to walk long distances and play! I know some kiddos can be picky eaters like mine so I will happily embrace your pets quirks! No request is too strange and I will not have any problem respecting you or your pets routine.

About: I've had pets my entire life and have been given more responsibilities with age. I have a dog a cat, and a horse that all need special care from ear infection treatments to prescription drugs. My family and I have also cared for many stray cats and even fostered one's six kittens. I’m currently a college student on summer break and I’m available during many periods in the day. These time periods are perfect for me to give your furry family members a walk, pets, and food! I am super enthusiastic about getting outside and love to go on long walks with my dog. I can also pop in to feed your furry friend and give them attention when you're away.

“We had a walkaround the house with Rochelle. Rochelle was attentive and took lots of pictures. You can tell that she takes the care of our pups and the house very seriously. After learning the house, Rochelle observed the correct food portions and fed the pups. She is so loving to the pups.”

About: Your fur baby will have a blast with our pack! Winnie, Tater and Goose are the ultimate pals. We will be sure to keep your pup entertained and a great way to get exercise and affection while you’re away! If you have an older dog, I can offer one on one snuggle time and a calm relaxing environment separate from the other pups. We have 2 acres and enjoy outside playtime. We frequent the dog park in Louisa and hiking trails from Richmond to Charlottesville. Common treats are homemade chicken jerky and sardines. Please let me know if your pup is not on a tick preventative. We treat our yard with a dog safe spray but enjoy recreational activities away from home and would like to be extra cautious for your fur baby. I have full weekday and have full weekend availability! We enjoy going on walks in our neighborhood or the park close by early in the morning and late at night before it gets too hot. Depending on your pup’s age, younger ones will have tater and goose to play with. Older/calmer pups will stay with Winnie and I in a separated part of the house. I will care for your pup however you feel they will do the best (:

About: Taking care of dogs or any animal in fact has always been something I really enjoyed from a young age. I started a few years ago just reaching out to friends and family to take care of their pups and I’ve had a blast and want to make it a more every day thing. I just love making dogs as happy as they make me:) Pet care fits perfectly into my routine since I work very part-time and have lots of flexibility. I love being able to plan my days around walks, playtime, and quality time with the pets I care for. I’m also available for overnights, which means I can give pets extra comfort and consistency while their owners are away—it’s something I genuinely enjoy, so it never feels like work! When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they have a safe, clean, and comfortable space with plenty of attention and playtime. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible, including feeding, walks, and any meds they need. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to keep things consistent for the pet. Whether it’s my home or theirs, I treat every pet like they’re my own—making sure they feel loved, relaxed, and well cared for

“Elena is fantastic! We have two rescue doodles and one of them is scared to death of strangers. She was patient and kind to our pups, and Annie and Cooper took to her right away! We just love her and will definitely use her as a regular sitter!”

About: I’ve had animals growing up ever since I was little. I’ve grown up with 4 dogs in the household and currently have my own. I absolutely adore all animals and would love to take care of your beloved animal I work and go to school daily but during the summer, I can definitely be more free. I always take breaks to walk the dogs around the neighborhood. I always be adequate to feed them and give them water throughout the day at their assigned eating times! If the dog is crate, trained to sleep in the crate at night, they’re welcome to sleep in the crate or if the owner wants, they can sleep in the bed with me. I do not mind.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs ever since I was the age of six and I have a great way and love with them . My schedule varies weekly as I have a college retention student job and I get off pretty late but I’m very flexible. I can always work around getting your pet taken care of! I care for them with love and with their necessities as needed on a daily bases whether it’s taking them out for a walk twice a day or feeding them twice a day as well or any extra care like giving them their meds as needed as well.
