About: I taken care of my dog for 8 years. I also have some experience caring for other people's dogs. Over the past two years, I taken care of my family friends' dogs doing in-house stays a couple of times. My dog can be anxious, so I have experience with anxious and easily scared dogs, and I am willing to be very patient with them. I have a pretty open schedule. I can stay at your house, do drop-ins, and do dog walking. I am available Sunday - Saturday after 7 am. I can follow any instructions you give to care for your pet. I can adjust accordingly if your pet might need extra care. I am thorough in taking care of your pet and always check to make sure everything is done. I love playing with pets, and I will make sure they get their playtime for the day.

“Yana is phenomenal! She always takes such great care of our boy. He is super comfortable with her and she is very detail oriented. I never worry about my pup when he is being taken care of by her! :)”

“Karlee is a great sitter! She’s super friendly and responsive to visits. She’s done a great job at doing house visits for my puppy to tire him out and keep him engaged when I’m busy. Would definitely recommend!”

About: I've had dogs my whole life and started dog-sitting for my neighbors at 9 years old. I love all animals, but dogs have a very special place in my heart. I've worked with dogs of all ages, and over the summer, I cared for a puppy full-time for the family I nanny for. I am very comfortable with big dogs and have lots of experience with large breeds, including Corsos and English Mastiffs. I hope I can make your time away from your pets a little bit easier and less stressful! I am a full-time student at the University of Virginia (with a car), so I have classes during the weekdays; however, I do have many breaks and a few days each week without classes, so I have a lot of room for coming by to check in and help out in any way I can. What I do to keep the animals and myself safe really depends on the situation. When I walk, I always carry pepper spray, and I have collars with lights on them in case I am ever walking a dog in low visibility. The important thing to me is making sure I follow any specific requests from the owners!

“Theo had a great weekend! I really appreciated the care, attention, and time spent with him. She kept me updated, made sure he got plenty of walks and playtime, and followed his routine with feeding and everything else. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for Theo, which is always the best feeling. I would definitely recommend her and would be happy to have her watch Theo again!”

“Kailyn was a lifesaver when I needed a last minute pet sitter. She was very responsive, sent detailed updates and pictures, and had no problem handling my cat's different foods and medications. I would definitely use her services again!”

About: I'm an animal lover, Mom, local business owner, and outdoor enthusiast! I've been surrounded by animals my whole life, and have spent many years fostering, volunteering for rescue organizations and leading dog walks and hikes. When I'm not caring for your pet babies, I'm in the kitchen working as a private chef here in Central, VA! Because I'm self employed with a flexible schedule, your pet won't have to spend long hours alone. I focus on low-stress, individualized attention—no overcrowded group walks or forced interactions. I'm comfortable following strict feeding schedules, giving oral medications, keeping up with active routines, and showing lots of affection, kindness and respect to your animals. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness is always my top priority! I'm self employed as a private chef and make my own schedule, so I have the time and flexibility to accommodate your pet needs! The opportunity to spend time with animals and get out of the kitchen into the fresh air is a win-win! I always strictly follow owner instructions and offer a safe, calm, active (when appropriate) and loving space for your pets to find connection while their owners are away.

“Cate is now an honorary part of the family. When we got home from a week-long trip, our pets weren’t even excited to see us. That is a true testament to how amazing, loving, and thoughtful she is. I am just relieved for our pets’ sake that they get to see her again in a few weeks.”

About: Hello! I’m a graduate student who dearly misses my family pups and would love a chance to share my love with your fur babies 😊 I’m extremely comfortable handling reactive dogs (large or small) and can tailor walks to whatever your pup needs (structured with rewarded commands, loose sniff walks, easy jogs to release energy, etc). I know how to administer medication via mouth/eye/ear and am adept at reading body language to match your pet’s energy and comfort level. I have a relatively flexible schedule but am limited by certain weekly required lectures/events. I am typically free before 8am and after 12pm on weekdays (only after 5pm on Thursdays though) and all day weekends. Sometimes I’m free the entire day, it depends! If you have any questions or want to know if I’m available at a specific time, please just reach out to me and I’ll try my best to work with you. I know it can be scary to trust a technical stranger, but rest assured that I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own. I’m extremely aware of potential safety concerns (toxic food, dart risk with open doors, mobility limitations for small pets, etc) and hold myself to the highest standards both as a professional and animal lover.

“Zoe responded quickly to our initial inquiry. She took great care of our cats and provided plenty of updates!”

“Virginia is a gem! She didn’t just take care of Mack, she genuinely cared for him! The way he was so calm and happy when we got home told me he wasn’t stressing at all when we were gone. 5 stars for Virginia.”

Rachel R.

“Alia has been phenomenal with our dog Tripper. She is reliable, on time, and effective communicator, and best of all, she loves our dog and takes him on great walks! We couldn’t be happier and without hesitation will book her in the future.”

About: I’ve always had several dogs in my household since I was a little girl that were all types of breeds and ages. Pets are definitely family to me. I have one dog and 2 cats. Peaches, Pepper, and Pumpernickel. I've also been a pet sitter to a few neighbors for 2 years. In summers I’ve also volunteered at SPCA as a dog walker. I'm excited to give love to as many furry friends as I can!

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats and rabbits for years. I also have experience as a pet owner to a cat and grew up with dogs and cats and various rabbits and farm animals my entire life. My goal is to ease your pets anxiety when their person is not there! I will work to make sure your pet has what they need and the love they deserve! I work 3 days a week but am off by 5:00 and am super flexible. I am free on weekends and am happy to stay with the animals when I’m not at work! I also have the flexibility to leave during lunch during my work hours. I am very in tune with your pets needs and will make sure they always have fresh water and food at correct times. I’m happy to send as many updates as you need, and as many pictures! I am very flexible of what is required for you and your animals needs! I love to walk around the neighborhood and get them exercise as well as spending time in their safe environment. I’m happy to play fetch or sit with them and just give cuddles.

“Christian went above and beyond in making my reactive Aussie comfortable and building up trust, and I really appreciated how much patience Christian showed! My Aussie is much more chill with them now, and we’re already booked for more visits and dog sitting! Christian is also meticulous in note taking and communicating, and making sure all the care tasks are performed the way my Aussie is used to.”
