About: I have experience caring for both puppies (even during potty training) and senior pets with special medication and mobility needs. I have pet sat for numerous families with senior pets and have been successful in meeting all needs and providing the best care possible. I would love to do the same for your pet! I am in my 4th year of medical school, so my schedule is more flexible than an average full time job. I often have odd shifts or hours, so I can tend to pets at times where others may not be able to! I am willing to fit caring for your pet into my schedule however I can. I currently have 1 cat who lives in my apartment. I am so excited for the day we move to a home where we can build him a cat patio (or catio as we lovingly refer to it as), but for now he loves sitting in the window and seeing all of the sights outside! I would be willing to travel wherever needed to pet sit or do pet check-ins/potty breaks/walks. I would care for your animal just like it was my own. My goal is to meet all of your pet's needs, from physical to emotional and psychological. I also strive to maintain great relationships with pet owners to make leaving pets less stressful and anxiety-inducing.

“Danyelle is amazing! 10/10 highly recommend. I felt extremely comfortable. She is extremely flexible, my fur baby loved her, and she goes above and beyond!”

“Nick was great! He took great care of our cats, fish, and Guinea pig. It was wonderful receiving pics of our furry family and he even brought the mail in. I would 100% use his services again.”

Suzanne J.

“Makenzie was awesome. She was very communicative and reliable. Our cats are pretty shy around strangers and she was very patient and able to get them to be relaxed around her which most people cannot do. Thanks so much! I definitely recommend her!”

About: I am a VCU med student looking to do what I love most for fun - taking care of pets! I have cared for my own Shitzu in the past, and I would love to spend time with other pets. I have dog-walked for families in my neighborhood back home for 2 years. I am a responsible, patient, attentive, and devoted animal-lover. I always treat pets with the upmost respect - as if they were my own - and I attend to all of their needs. I also understand that each pet has different needs, and I'm very accommodating. I spend most of my time studying at home, so I guarantee that your animals will be safe and properly cared for when they are with me :) Depending on my schedule, I can be available to watch pets any day of the week. I’m a medical student and spend most of my time at home unless I have a mandatory in-person session. I provide a comfortable and safe environment for your dogs, allowing them to sleep on my bed/sofa, providing them with exercise, and administering medications if needed.

“Kirby has been great helping me with daily let outs while I’m at work this week. She even went out of her way to schedule a meet and greet since my dog can be a little anxious. Highly recommend her!”

Hannah Q.

“I had Grant take care of my two kitties. He followed my directions to a tee and sent me updates of how my cats were doing, along with photos. I feel safe and reaasured with Grant taking care of my cats. I will be using his services in the future.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs (and cats) since I was old enough to walk. I have extensive experience with younger dogs and senior dogs. My senior dog passed recently, but through her I gained experience in handling leash and dog aggression, administering medicine, and making her comfortable in later years. I am trained in leash walking aggressive dogs, and I have experience with being firm for training. Your dog will enjoy long walks, lots of pets, and playful energy staying with me. I love animals and I always look to put their best interests first. I work full time from home, which allows me flexibility through the day to care for pets. While I have other hobbies, one of my favorite things to do is walk through Richmond, so your dog will be happily exhausted after staying with me! I live in a two level, large apartment. I do not have any other pets or children, so your fur baby will be our number one priority! My home is near Byrd park and other great neighborhoods to walk in. Your pet will be allowed on the couch, but I am happy to crate them if you’re more comfortable. I do not smoke and keep a very tidy home, so your pet will be safe under my care.

About: I have three dogs and two cats back home, all of whom typically fall under my care. I have experience dog, cat, and housesitting in both my hometown (Harrisonburg) and here in Richmond. I also volunteer at the Richmond SPCA for general socialization and cleanliness. I love animals dearly, but my roommates don’t want any pets in the apartment, so any help I can provide will also help me ;-) I’m a student at VCU with a solid course load, but a lot of free time in evenings, and on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. I have a car and time between classes to let your animals out, take them on walks, or just check up on them. I rely heavily on your personal pet care instructions. I believe you care deeply for your animals and you know them best. I will keep areas clean and locked up, so you’ll barely know I was there!

About: I have two pets, one cat and one dog. I have lots of experience with walking dogs, trained and untrained. My dog Bleu has severe anxiety with cars and I have managed to help him overcome this fear and have accommodated to his needs. My cat Ghost is still a kitten and loves being cuddled. I love pets and have had ferrets, ginuea pigs, birds, and fish growing up. I love walking, so if you are interested in booking, I can walk your dog up to 3 miles per day. I am currently working during the day so I have free time during early mornings and afternoons to either take your pet on walks, to the dog park, or just play in the backyard. My dog is crate trained and your animal will not be bothered by him as he is a gentle and sweet dog. I also have multiple rooms where animals can be separated.

About: I have cared for animals for all my life, I grew up with both a dog and cat, and developed a genuine love for both. For the past three years I lived in south lake tahoe where I regularly dog sat for my friends and took them trail running, biking, and hiking. I love being outdoors, and a furry friend besides me makes the experience 10x better. In the past year I have worked at farms specifically with animal care and husbandry; including feeding and herding sheep and alpacas, working alongside herding dogs. I administered medications to large farm animals for infections and other needs. Whether your pet loves long outdoor adventures, leisurely strolls in the neighborhood or simply companionship and cuddles, I'm happy to meet and care for them! I’m currently visiting family in Richmond, Virginia, after spending the past year bikepacking and traveling throughout Southeast Asia. As I apply for forestry positions back in California, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet sitting, walks, and outdoor adventures. I don’t currently have a space of my own to host pets, but I’m very comfortable caring for animals in their own homes. Whether you need someone to stay overnight, stop by for visits, or pick up your dog for a walk or adventure, I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine and your preferences.

“Margaret went above and beyond when caring for River. My smoke detector was going out due to an apparent dead battery or something and she made every effort to help the situation. Her communication was great and I felt very comfortable knowing that my cat was in her hands ! Thank you Margaret.”

“Linsey is the BEST pet sitter and all around person. Our normally shy cats warmed up to her immediately and she took excellent care of them, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying. We will definitely be booking with her again and cannot recommend her highly enough. 🌟”

About: I’ve been dog-sitting for about 5 years now. I’ve mainly taken care of small to medium sized dogs but I’m open to looking after larger dogs as well. I am very reliable and have a lot of energy to keep your dog entertained throughout the day. I love going for walks and and going to dog parks if allowed by the owner. I live in an apartment and it’s dog-friend and the apartment has a dog area where they can relieve themselves. I live in a studio apartment but there’s plenty of open space where your pup can lounge around. I’m very attentive of your dogs needs, so I stay on top of taking them out for walks and making sure their water bowl is kept full and following their feeding schedule. Also open to grooming and showering your dog, especially if they are staying overnight with me. If your pup is energetic and loves to play we will be a great match!!
