About: Hi! I’m Cheyenne, a lifelong animal lover with hands-on professional experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I previously worked at a kennel-free dog boarding facility, where I helped care for multiple dogs at once in a safe, supervised environment. I’ve also worked as a full-time dog walker and pet sitter, providing daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, medication administration, and lots of attention and playtime. Animals have always been part of my life—I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and currently care for my own pets as well. Because of my background in both professional animal care and customer service, I understand how important communication and trust are when someone else is caring for your pet. What you can expect when your pet is with me: • Reliable, on-time care • Regular photo and text updates • Safe handling for dogs with different temperaments • Experience with multi-dog households • Lots of attention, enrichment, and play Whether your dog needs a walk while you’re at work, drop-in visits while you’re away, or extra love and attention, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’d love to meet you and your furry family member! I work a hybrid office jobs with very flexible hours. When I do go into the office, my office is dog friendly so I can bring a furry friend along if they enjoy the socialization! I care for pets in their own home so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. For drop-in visits and house sitting, I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, playtime, and any specific routines your pet is used to. During visits, I make sure pets get the attention, exercise, and enrichment they need, whether that’s a long walk, playtime, or just companionship. I also make sure basics like fresh water, clean feeding areas, and litter boxes are taken care of. For dog walks, I focus on safe handling, appropriate exercise for your dog’s energy level, and making sure they return home happy and settled. I always send updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and loved while keeping you informed and at ease.

About: I grew up with dogs and still watch my parents’ dog when they go out of town. I love meeting new animals, playing with them, and caring for them. I am currently doing Lyft full time so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule and can adjust my driving hours to whatever works best. I love playing with animals, petting them, and giving them cuddles. I have a pet of my own so I understand how hard it is to leave them and am happy to provide photos during my visits.

About: I grew up in a multi-cat household and now own 5 cats between my parents and myself! There's no kitty I can't handle - from super social, to shy, to very sassy, I'm known to be able to form a bond with every cat that comes into my care. I'm also a lover of all animals, I owned fish and lizards and have spent a lot of time helping walk and take care of my family's dogs. My animals are my life, and I've been on Rover for almost four years now! I also have a lot of experience working for Happy Cats Concierge LLC in Reston, VA, where I provided a range of services for cats of various quantities, ages, and personalities. Whether your furry friend needs a playmate, cuddle buddy, bodyguard, or just someone to stop by for food and medicine - I got you! My schedule is open and my day-to-day is flexible! Any specific dates I’m unavailable will be reflected on my calendar. Please message me with any other scheduling questions. Inside, outside, leash or no leash, crate, etc., I will honor the owner's wishes for where their furry friend needs to be spending their time. I value consistent routines and attentiveness while your pet is in my care. All of my services will be based in the client's home or neighborhood.

About: From wolfhounds to chihuahuas, I have petsat them all! I have experience with giving medicine, assisting senior dogs with mobility, exercising, playing, feeding, and giving all the affection needed. Petsitting would be split with my workday on Monday -Wednesday. I can come in the morning, during my lunch break, and spend as much time as needed after work with your pet. Friday through Sunday I can do as many visits and walks as necessary. It is safer and better to build trust with any animal if there is a meet & greet before petsitting. This helps me know the routines of your household and shows the pets that I'm not a stranger when I come to care for them. Sticking to the routines/key words they know, engaging them with praise, play, or treats, and letting the dog/cat have space when needed - are all ways to help your pet be at ease.

About: My name is Nick and I am a teacher in Chesterfield county looking to use my love for animals as a way to make some extra money over the summer. I have had dogs and cats growing up my whole life and currently have a dog named Bagel and a cat named Friday. I also have lots of experience dog/cat sitting for friends and family over the years ever since I was in high-school. I am a teacher so I won’t be working during the summers so I will have unlimited time during the day/night to take care of your pets and their needs. Once the school year starts I will still be available! I have a lot of energy myself so if your pets love to get exercise/play around I am very up for that. I also try to be very thorough with the pet care instructions and will ask questions/for clarification to ensure I am giving your pet the best care as possible.

About: I have experience caring for dogs through both long-term and everyday responsibilities, including helping raise my aunt’s dog from puppyhood and regularly caring for my boyfriend’s dog. My responsibilities have included walking, feeding, playtime, maintaining routines, and providing companionship to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care and attention I give to each pet individually. I understand that being away from their owner can be stressful for some animals, so I focus on creating a calm, reassuring, and positive environment where they feel secure and loved. My experience caring for puppies has also taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of paying close attention to behavior, routines, and energy levels. I treat every pet with the same care, compassion, and responsibility I would want for my own animals. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for my own cats. I make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention and playtime throughout the day. I even take my cat on walks, so I’m very attentive to both physical activity and emotional enrichment. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so being patient, observant, and consistent with their routines comes very naturally to me. II believe pets communicate their needs through their behavior and body language, so I always pay close attention to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I respect each pet’s boundaries while also giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and care. In both my home and a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, maintaining their routine, and making sure they don’t feel lonely or stressed while their owner is away.

B is great! I reached out to her 6 weeks before traveling to Richmond to arrange walk for my dog for one day. B went out of her way to meet with me and meet my dog the day before at our Airbnb. My dog immediately took a liking to her. B took great care of my dog. I would recommend her 100% and would have her as a regular dog walker if I lived in the area.

Ivana is an absolute delight and a spark of energy in the morning haha! Very warm, friendly, outgoing - my two big dogs adored right away. She’s very comfortable and confident with them. She has a lot of experience with all kinds of animals (volunteering at shelters, 10+ years, many varieties of animals) and she definitely is passionate about doing this / does it with authenticity. she’s incredibly professional, always on time, and wonderfully communicative. Adored her and def booking again! Highly recommend!

Seriously 10/10 recommend. Zack was so patient and understanding with my dog Sanova, even when she had issues with barking and getting used to him. He stayed kind, consistent, genuine, and happy to help no matter what. He was very communicative throughout and such a pleasure to have around. Sanova always got lots of exercise and great care when she was with him- his services were a huge relief to me and my boyfriend’s bust schedules. If you’re looking for a sign to book him for his services- this is it.
