“Esteisy was amazing with our dog all week! She has a super spacious yard that our older dog loved rolling and playing in. She met up every morning and afternoon on time during drop off and pick up. She was very responsive with communication and sent us a report card with pictures and daily activities! We would definitely book with her again!”

“Fantastic dog sitter. This is the third time Mazie has stayed with Stephanie. We were in town for my daughters Fife and Drum Performances and it was so nice to know Mazie was well taken care of. Highly recommend Stephanie.”

About: I was new to the pet ownership when I got my boys in 2019. I conducted thorough research since I was in need of an emotional support animal. In my quest, I found the perfect fur baby for me, the Biewer terrier. I started with one, however since my Denni suffered with anxiety and separation issues I felt it prudent to get him a companion. Two months later we welcomed Davis into the family and have never been happier. I relocated to Virginia at the start of the pandemic in 2020. One year later I suffered a health crisis which made it difficult for me to fully care for my boys. It took another two years before I made the difficult decision to rehouse them. Fortunately, I was able to turn them over to the loving care of my dentist. Since she brings them to work with her, I can still stop by to say hello and spend some time with them. Over time, my health improved, I was introduced to dog care and the rest is, as they say, history. I have found my passion. With a heart full of love for fur babies of all shapes, sizes and temperments, I'd be honored to care for your beloved fur babies in my home or yours. My time is my own. I am retired and home all day. I am flexible and willing to adjust my schedule to fit yours. I even offer pick-up/drop-off services when needed to lessen the burden on you. Let's work together to make things easiest for you. I live in a townhouse with stairs on the inside of the apartment. This allows the dogs to get plenty of exercise, as needed. I also have a balcony so your pets can be outdoors all day, if they so desire. I took care of a Greyhound who was very sweet but quiet. He would sit out on the balcony all day and never barked once. I can also take puppies in need of training. I trained my boys myself with the help of Cesar Millan and Brian McMillan (lol). I am also considering getting formal training. In the meantime, I seek knowledge from books and subscribe to several YouTube channels specifically geared towards dog training. I have potty pads, toys and treats in my home, as well as other items I use for training purposes. Recently, I did drop-in visits for two medium-sized dogs. One, a senior dog, the other a 5 month old Border Collie full of energy. I let them out in the backyard for 30 minutes. I made sure they had fresh water and then crated the Collie until the owner returned home.

“My pups loved their visit with Shawna. She sent lots of pics so we could see how they spent the day, which was much appreciated. We will definitely bring the dogs to her again!”

Deborah F.

“Christene has been absolutely amazing with our dog, Pugston. Communication is 100 across the board, with such a flexible, and easy drop off and pick up. She communicates with us throughout the day, including photos of our fur baby. Whenever we need someone to book, Christene is our go to. You won’t be disappointed!”

Addie W.

“Jarin was a life saver when our other pet sitter cancelled at the last minute! She took wonderful care of our boy! He had a great time playing with Jenji, and Jarin kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos. Highly recommend!”

Stephanie G.

“Victor and Abigail were awesome and took extra steps to make sure our anxious pup had a great time. They sent us videos and pictures every day, which we really appreciated. After his first day in daycare, my dog was very excited to return on the following days. He seemed to really like the folks who took care of him and was nice and tired once I picked him up. Staying with these folks was definitely a mini vacation for my dog!”

Liz W.

“This family takes great care of our pup. When I pulled into the drive and Rosy recognized where we were, she was super excited! They love her and Rosy loves them right back!”

About: Hello! My name is Zach, I have two dogs and two cats of my own and have grown up with no less than four pets at any given time. Often when I meet people's furry companions I'm told they warm up to me faster than normal and even some times for the first time, so I'm open to try to care for almost any pet! Responsiveness, honesty, and genuine care should be expected from a pet sitter - let me know if I can help! My partner and I work from home so we're available and flexible throughout the week for all pet care services. Just let us know when and we can try to make it work! I have a big but unfenced yard, two sweet begal-hound mix brothers (one is energetic, the other lazy) and two sweet and playful cat sisters. It's a cozy and fun home environment. All the animals get plenty of attention (we love to play) and the dogs are let out consistently throughout the day. I can crate if needed, follow any special instructions, and we have a spare room if space is needed. Your pet will be treated as our own, just let us know!

About: I’ve taken care of the dogs in my neighborhood since I was 11. I’ve dogsat for neighbors and walked dogs before. Most of my family has dogs so when they go out of town I watch their pets. I train for soccer every morning, so dog walking is a great way for me to stay active and keep my legs stretched and warm. I have a super flexible schedule outside of my morning training! I will mainly be walking dogs and will make sure they are hydrated, are able to do their business, and enjoy their time out in the sun and nature! If I am dog sitting in your home I will make sure the dog feels comfortable in his home and that everything is in order when I arrive and leave!

About: "Whoever said diamonds are a girl's best friend...never owned a dog" I live in a townhouse in Williamsburg with husband, our 1 year old daughter and our puppy, Korben. Dog sitting is a full family experience in our home, both our daughter and puppy love it when we have house guests. In fact our daughter’s first word was “doggie”, so it’s very important that dogs that come into our home do well with children as much as they do well with other dogs. While we don’t have a fenced in yard we make up for it with a walking path in the neighborhood and many other walking trails close by, we generally go on two walks a day, weather permitting. I've been sitting for my friends and family for as long as I can remember. So if your looking for a place where your dog will be well cared for and have a lot of fun in the process, look no further. Please don't hesitate to e-mail me with further questions, I want you to feel comfortable when you leave your dog with me while you are out of town. I work mostly from home so your pup will have the hands on attention they deserve! We offer ample love and attention through walks and belly rubs. There are occasions I will need to leave the house for work, but I’m usually not gone more than an hour or so. In those instances we’ll recreate what you do with your pup when leave your home. I really try to mimic your routine at home as best as possible. I know that coming to a new home can be stressful for the pup so I try to ease that transition by sticking to your routine as best I can.

“this was a last minute and Caroline was very helpful to accommodate this and take care of our dog.”

About: I was raised with inside and outside dogs, I have years of experience with all ages of dogs, from newborns to my current rescue senior dog. I have a big backyard for plenty of walking and playing, a quiet neighborhood setting as well for lengthier walks. My senior dog is extremely calm and loves all dogs of all sizes. My young pup is well socialized and energetic to play with your pup for hours. My home will come with approved treats, I currently keep milkbones and dentasticks on hand, I am a rawhide free home due to its choking hazards. I have a work from home job, I am home all day 4 days of the week at minimum. Even on my “off days” I am generally gone no longer than about 4 hours. I have a long rope leash for play, a backyard that isn’t fenced but is more so “closed off” to neighbors. I have sturdy baby gates to section off my home to give dogs space for “alone” time away from my dogs if they need it.

About: I’ve had dogs on and off my entire life. For the last 12 years our family has rescued/adopted 11 dogs. I have kept family and friends' dogs while they vacation as well as done drop ins at their home for walks, feeding and cuddling. I have also taken care of goats and chickens. I will treat your pets how I would want someone to treat mine. I am comfortable around all size and breeds of dogs and cats as well as goats and chickens. I am self employed and have a very flexible schedule. I am available almost any time, including nights and weekends. Most schedules can be accommodated. I have 5 acres which about 1/2 acre is fenced in with 6-foot fencing. I can snuggle your dog on the couch or crate them if they feel more comfortable like that. I have my own personal dogs but keep them separate from other people's pets. If you leave directions of what your pets routine in your home is like I can provide for them in that manner.
