About: I have been an animal lover since birth, and have had a wide assortment of different pets throughout my entire life. This has given me the privilege to learn to care for many types of animals. However, dogs have been the constant companion that my family has had. No matter the size, age, or breed, I feel confident giving quality pet care. Your pets will not just be well cared for but loved and played with. My days off are Monday and Tuesday, these will be my best days. On these days I can come any time of day or stay/check in as much as needed. Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday I work but often have long breaks in between multiple times a day. These days would work best for dog walking or pet sitting. If you are curious about another specific day, message me and I might be able to stop by over the weekend if my days allow it. Having dogs myself I have experience feeding dogs/cats (even the more sensitive pets). When checking in on one of your babies I will make sure to slowly introduce myself, so they will experience less anxiety. I will let the pet lead in how much affection they want. After I will make sure to complete all tasks on the list while making sure to respect the home. My house has a large fenced-in backyard for the dogs to run around. The home is well-kept and set up for watching younger puppies as well.

“This was our first time leaving our 1-year-old dog with someone outside of the family since we got him. Katelynn was awesome with Zeus and was great with him from the very start! He typically is very scared of new people and refuses to leave our side but she made him feel comfortable and safe from the start! She kept us up to date throughout the day which made us feel safe. We will definitely have Zeus stay with her next time, she was wonderful and I would highly recommend her!”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have cared for my own golden retriever, Sunny, since he was a puppy. Sunny is now 5 years old, well-behaved, and friendly with other pets. My experience includes daily walks, playtime, and creating a safe, loving environment for dogs of all temperaments. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will get plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. I walk Sunny twice daily—morning and evening—and love spending time outdoors. My schedule is flexible, so I can accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays. I live in a one-level ranch-style home with a fully fenced-in backyard, perfect for safe outdoor play. My home is quiet, clean, and pet-friendly. Sunny is gentle and social, making him a great companion for visiting pets. I treat every dog like family and prioritize their comfort and safety.

“Tim and his wife are very pleasant and I was even invited inside their cozy living room. Nice neighborhood and they have a nice yard in the back. Also, our communication before and during Anis stay was very easy. I’d definitely book again.”

About: Puppy sitting for my perfect nephew (Rocky) for the last five years in San Diego inspired me to help others in Richmond now that I call it my home. In college I fostered kittens that were too young to be adopted to help build socialization skills with people. I grew up always having both a dog and cat in the home and can’t wait to rescue someone of my own here soon 😊. I live and work in the Willow Lawn area and love to get out for many walks. I live an active life and love the outdoors. I am happily available for boarding, daycare or walks but currently prefer weekends over weekdays as I work from an office down the road from home. Advance notice to schedule boarding is greatly appreciated to plan ahead with my schedule. It is just me at home with a fenced in spacious backyard and quiet street full of neighborhood fur friends to meet along our walks!

“Ms. Brooke was absolutely amazing with my Lily. It felt good to be able to fully trust someone with your fur baby and I trust her completely. I will most definitely use her again.”

Ayesha D.

“Aliza was awesome! She was available at a somewhat last minute request. She was very responsive and Rusty seemed to have a great time. Aliza was also very timely and I didn’t have to wait at all for drop off and pick up :) would definitely use again!”

“Toffee could not have been happier to return to Amanda's for some last minute day care.”

About: Hi, I’m Leah – your pups new favorite person! As someone who has previously owned/inherited 3 dogs, I know how hard it is to leave your best friend with anyone that’s not you. That’s why I don’t take this responsibility lightly—your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort come first! I grew up with dogs and have spent my life around wagging tails and unconditional love. Whether your pup loves long walks FULL of sniffs, tug-of-war, or just cuddles on cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel loved and at home. I’ve also cared for reactive dogs in the past—including my own—so I really understand how important it is to create a calm, safe space where they can feel secure. I know every pup is different, and I always lead with patience, empathy, and lots of love. Think of me as your dog’s vacation buddy while you're away💕 I work from home and am mostly always home during the evenings. I don’t have meetings too much so I can take your pup out and about as many times as you’d like. I have an apartment but live right beside a green space. I also love taking pups on car rides so happy to take them on hikes or go to the river!
