Dog Sitting Chester

About: I’ve been taking care of pets for most of my life. My family and friends have always counted on me to care for our/their pets when needed. I have walked, bathed, fed, snuggled and played with them! I am a full time worker, five days a week, nine hours a day from 9AM to 6PM. And I also have a part-time job that I do on the weekends, but I am still open to any service I could possibly provide for you and your pet! I receive my part-time job schedule weekly schedule every Saturday, so communication is key. I will care for your pets in your home by providing them the care that they need, walks, runs, snuggles, playtime, you name it! If there is anything specific you want me to know or abide by please let me know and I will make sure you and your pet are left satisfied :)

About: I have over a decade of professional pet care experience as well as a lifetime of personal pet care experience. I prefer to work with the elderly or medically complex pets as I know they need special attention, adherence to routines, and a calm environment. I focus on providing fun daycare and boarding for pets that don’t do well in regular boarding facilities and require a more home-like experience. Prices are negotiable after a meet and greet. Please fill out your profile in full before meeting! Incomplete/no profile image profiles will not be given my address. I work from home so I spend a majority of my day with my pets and guest pets. Dogs are given mostly free range inside and allowed outside into the huge fenced yard many times a day. They get playtime with other pets and alone time when needed. Our yard is fenced and our house is doggy proofed to avoid trash cans, toilets, and non-chewable items from being accessed. Dogs are crated when they can’t be supervised.

“Karen was fantastic. My 3 highly opinionated cats seemed to really like her and she went above and beyond what I expected when she cared for my babies.”

“Grace sent us lovely updates and pictures of our cats each day which made being away much easier. The cats were well played with and barely seemed to notice when we returned 🤣.”

“Lilliana was excellent and extremely professional. She was on time and went the extra mile to make sure our pets were taken care of. I will definitely be using her services again.”

About: I've been caring for animals since I was a kid, so I have experience with just about every stage of pet life, from puppies and kittens to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. I'm comfortable with basic training, quick drop-ins, longer stays, and pets with more specific care needs. I grew up in the country with a pack of Australian Shepherds, so I'm very familiar with energetic, intelligent dogs and the occasional four-legged escape artist. These days, I have five cats of my own, and my fiancé and I also rescue cats and kittens, so I have plenty of hands-on experience with feline care too. That includes everything from confident, social cats to shy, nervous, or newly rescued kitties who may need a little more patience while they get comfortable. My home also makes it easy to give pets their own separate, quiet areas when needed, which is especially helpful for shy animals, cats, pets who aren't comfortable around others, or those who simply prefer some privacy. I also have experience caring for pets recovering from surgery or dealing with temporary mobility and medication needs. Since I work from home, I'm around throughout the day and can provide plenty of supervision, companionship, potty breaks, and attention rather than leaving your pet alone for long stretches. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and already structure my day around caring for my own animals. I’m home throughout the day, which makes it easy to accommodate feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, medications, check-ins, and plenty of attention without pets being left alone for long stretches. I’m also used to adjusting my routine around an animal’s individual needs. Whether that means an early breakfast, extra walks for an energetic puppy, a quiet afternoon with a senior pet, or giving a shy cat time and space to settle in, I have the flexibility to make their normal routine part of mine. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I try to keep their routine as familiar and low-stress as possible. I follow your instructions closely for feeding, medications, potty breaks, walks, playtime, sleeping arrangements, and any household rules your pet is used to. Because I work from home, I have a lot of flexibility throughout the day. That means I’m available for regular walks, extra potty breaks, drop-ins, play sessions, and check-ins rather than trying to squeeze pet care around a traditional office schedule. I’m happy to match your dog’s usual walking routine, whether that means a quick neighborhood loop or a longer walk to burn off some energy. In my home, I’m able to section off different rooms and areas as needed, which is especially helpful for pets who need privacy, a quiet place to decompress, or separation from other animals. I’m also very mindful about doors, gates, leashes, and other potential escape routes. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both your space and your pet’s established routine. I want them to feel like life is continuing as normally as possible while you’re away, with plenty of attention and supervision. I’m also happy to send photos and updates throughout their care so you have the peace of mind of knowing how they’re doing while you’re away.

“Taylor is such an amazing pet sitter! She gives such great updates and takes so many pictures that I basically feel like I'm still home lol. I'd highly recommend Taylor and will be reaching out to her again for future needs.”

“Hana is amazing! She’s so flexible and understanding when it comes to schedules and demands of each animal in the home. She truly cares about our animals (she will leave our tv on for our dog so she isn’t lonely) and does enrichment treats without us even asking her to. I trust her with our babies 100%”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, including my own pets and my professional experience as a kennel attendant at a pet daycare. I’m experienced with walks, feeding routines, baths, medication, and providing care for pets with different needs and temperaments. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My goal is to give your pet the same attention, patience, and love I would give my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I plan my days around making sure each pet gets proper care, playtime, walks, and check-ins without feeling rushed. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and following their normal routine so they feel relaxed while their owner is away. I pay attention to their behavior, needs, and any instructions provided to make sure they receive the best care possible.

“Lashell was great—prompt and excellent with communication. When Tut insisted on a short walk in the neighborhood, she was accommodating which was most appreciated. Will work with her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of 2 of my parent’s dogs twice all by myself and they said I did a good job, both times. I feed them, take them outside, and play with them in the backyard. I’m unemployed at the moment so i’ll have a ton of free time to take care of your pets. I’m available on weekdays and weekends. I feed my dogs and I have a backyard where I can take them out and play fetch with them. I also take them out for walks.

About: Im a dog lover at heart and mind, with a history of dog training (agility and obedience) and multiple references for dog sitting. I do work full-time with a flexable schedule which allows me a lunch break for extra care. Feel free to make contact with any questions. About this sitter: Im an outgoing, energetic, pet loving person. I lost my girl Arwen who I had for 16 years. I am available for house sitting with morning and evening drop by or overnights. Feel free to make contact with any questions. Depending on distance from work I may be able to do lunch time drop bys also. Cost and needs, with length of time and number of pets, may be negotiable. Why I love dog sitting I've been a dog lover my entire life...I grew up with multiple kinds of dogs; poodles to black labs. After college I adopted a cat then settling down here in RVA where I rescued Arwen, my mini-Australian Shepard. We had a history of obedience and agility training, she was CGC certified. My experience administering medication Yes, I have given medication to multiple dogs and cats. I do work full-time near Chippenham and Midlothian Turnpike, so if close I can do a lunch drop by. Currently I am available for house/dog sitting including overnights at your home or mine. I am a k9 lover and would spend as much time loving, petting, and cuddling your pup as they would like. Walks are important, short or long, and outside hikes for nice days are great also.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old and I am 22 now. I consider dogs to be one of the many keys to happiness so I treat them as such. Whether that be long walks in the neighborhood, endless cuddles, or a friend to play with, they get what they need. I have never discriminated against a dog based on size or breed because all dogs deserve love and care no matter what. I take care of my dogs to the best of my ability so I will always do the same for others. You can be assured that they are in good hands. So if you need someone to love and care for your dog when you're not there I'm your girl! I am currently the primary care taker for my family dog, Raine. This includes walks 2x day, feedings, bath, etc. I ensure he takes his medicine, has lots of play time and clean bedding. I do not currently care for other dogs in my home. However, in my client’s home I ensure that the space is clear and void of anything that could bring harm to their pets. I make sure to regularly check up on them and listen to their needs.

“Hailey was wonderful! After another sitter fell through last minute, she was able to help us with only a couple hours notice. She gave us updates and pictures every visit and even gave our Kona a bath. She was also able to get Kya to go outside without a leash. I’m so glad we found her!”
