Pet Sitting Colonial Place

“Lee was wonderful with our fur babies! He left detailed notes after each visit, and provided excellent care for our cat and two dogs! We ran short on litter, and he even bought some to get us through! We would definitely use Lee again!”

“Meghan was great! Sent great updates and was always on time for the scheduled drops. Will be a repeat customer and would recommend to others!”

Reid B.

“Amanda was able to book the night before a holiday which was already awesome. I am a very detailed instruction giver because I am a worried and Amanda was so accommodating. My cat liked her instantly which means she made him feel comfortable. I really enjoyed having Amanda watch my cat and will book again!”

“Emili did great with my cat Saki! She gave her lots of attention and play time, took care of the litter box, communicated so well, and sent me lots of photos. It was great to have Emili taking such great care of my cat!”

Paige H.

“Excellent visits! Great communication, sent lots of photos and very interactive with our cats. Flexible with providing care and changing up day to day routine. Absolutely perfect pet sitting experience!”

Alexandra E.

“Mallory went above and beyond for our senior bunny. She obviously knows her way around small animals and was very understanding of his grouchy temperament with a new person in his space. She got him to warm up to her in just a few visits and she did extra cleaning around the house that was not required. We loved coming home to a clean home and a happy bunny”

“Nina did an outstanding job! I could tell that Maya was happy during our 9 day vacation! She sent lots of photos and updates!! I’m very happy to have Nina sit Maya again!!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs (and cats) since I was old enough to walk. I have extensive experience with younger dogs and senior dogs. My senior dog passed recently, but through her I gained experience in handling leash and dog aggression, administering medicine, and making her comfortable in later years. I am trained in leash walking aggressive dogs, and I have experience with being firm for training. Your dog will enjoy long walks, lots of pets, and playful energy staying with me. I love animals and I always look to put their best interests first. I work full time from home, which allows me flexibility through the day to care for pets. While I have other hobbies, one of my favorite things to do is walk through Richmond, so your dog will be happily exhausted after staying with me! I live in a two level, large apartment. I do not have any other pets or children, so your fur baby will be our number one priority! My home is near Byrd park and other great neighborhoods to walk in. Your pet will be allowed on the couch, but I am happy to crate them if you’re more comfortable. I do not smoke and keep a very tidy home, so your pet will be safe under my care.

“Chynna was great with our cat (who immediately liked her). She was also very flexible with regard to the meet n greet and key handoff. Definitely recommend!”

“Kira is the best. She is dependable, checks in with us on the pups. Most of all both of the dogs love her!”

About: I have taken care of dogs large and small since I was 12. Additionally, I have experience with more aggressive breeds of dogs. I have had my dog Narcissa Rose for almost 3 years, since she was a puppy, and so I have ample experience with puppies, training, and medication administration (both topically and orally)! I am a firm believer that our fur babies deserve the best care possible, as it’s their first time in this life as well and we have to be their advocate! I have a full time job, as well as a business. However, I am fortunate that I am an early riser, so early morning walks and visits are never an issue. My evenings are relatively free and even when I have plans, I ensure to make time so pets are cared for properly. I have a fenced in patio space as well as a neighborhood dog park that would make any furry friend happy! I crate my own dog occasionally, and so am no stranger to the need for it and am comfortable enforcing that with your pup if requested. I have had experiences myself of sitters not paying attention to my pets while in my home and so I take it very seriously that if I’m in your home, my attention is focused 100% on your pet(s)!

About: For the last three years, I have taken care of several dogs in my neighborhood. Mostly walking them, at times several walks a day, and dogsitting as well. I am able to account for the needs of dogs and am able to safely walk them. I am also a proud owner of two beautiful cats, so I am familiar with the habits of cats and how to tend to their individual needs! All my neighbors view me as a trustworthy companion and caregiver for their furry friends It is currently my summertime before school so until mid-August I am mostly free every day. My availability will be dependent on variable day-to-day summer errands, but I will be sure to prioritize my furry clients! I will keep a leash on your pet at all times during the walk and be sure to provide them with anything, such as food, treats, or water after the walk.

“We had an excellent experience with Sydney! care of our cats while we were on vacation. She was reliable, communicative, and took wonderful care of our cats while we were on vacation. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that our cats were well cared for and comfortable. We highly recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, and we’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

Amanda S.

“Fantastic cat sitting service provider. My cat came down with a sudden allergy just before I left on vacation. She was willing to apply medicine on him each day and provided updates and even drove to pick up a cat medicine that was mailed to the wrong address. She’s very nice and friendly and my skeptical cat warmed up to her quickly. Would absolutely recommend.”

Melissa B.

“Danyelle provided detailed updates and photos. Our cat was shy and aloof since it was his first time with a sitter, but she did her best to appeal to him. Danyelle also explained their cancellation and refund policy clearly when I requested changes to my booking. They responded quickly and appreciated their flexibility. Would definitely schedule Danyelle again.”

About: I’ve been a cat mama since our family cat chose me as his favorite nap spot the day I came home from the hospital! I raised my next bestie from the day she was born until she crossed the rainbow bridge, and I’ve loved my Fiona for nearly 14 years. I have plenty of experience with cats of all ages, including administering medication, accommodating quirky needs, and navigating sassy attitudes! I also grew up with a family dog and helped care for him while living at home and during college breaks. That included feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I bring patience and attention to each pet’s personality and routine, and I’m happy to learn all the little details that help yours feel comfortable and loved. I currently work freelance and have a very flexible schedule so my days are built around what bookings I have in a given week. Let me know what your needs are and we can work something out 🙂 Each visit comes will include a food, water and liter refresh plus treats, playtime and plenty of cuddles. I have plenty of experience with cats of all temperaments and will adjust care according to your instruction.

“Devinder takes great care of my cat Theo, who can be a bit sassy and territorial, especially when it comes to his personal space. I’d definitely recommend Devinder to anyone with a quirky or particular pet - he handles them with care!”

Marissa T.

“Stephanie did wonderfully with my crazy pup, dropping by several times mid day for feeding and letting him out. She was very prompt and communicated wonderfully, and I felt very comfortable leaving him in her care. Wholeheartedly recommend!”

Joy A.

“Tanti was great with our two pups. One of them was new to our household and still learning his place in a a strange new world. She was prompt, diligent, patient, and really cared for each of them. 10/10 would definitely hire her again.”

About: My partner and I bring over 10 years of dog care experience and 5+ years managing a stable multi-dog group. We carefully watch body language, work to prevent issues early, and keep feeding routines steady so each dog feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for. We’re comfortable working with multi-dog households, different energy levels, and group dynamics. Our focus is creating a safe, structured, and positive environment where dogs can socialize, play, and settle comfortably. My specialty is organization and structure, my partner specializes in socialization and behavioral management. Pet care is part of our daily life. Someone is home throughout the day. We organize our schedule around the dogs in our care so they receive consistent supervision, play, and individual attention. We have a fenced backyard and fenced front yard, giving dogs safe space to move, explore, and play. Inside we provide a dedicated dog room and crates for dogs of all sizes, creating a comfortable and secure place for them to rest when needed. Dogs are thoughtfully grouped by temperament, with attention to proper rest rotation and consistent feeding routines to support balance and comfort. Whether in our home or a client’s home, we focus on safety, supervision, and each dog’s individual needs. We follow established routines, maintain a steady and secure environment, and make sure every dog feels comfortable, cared for, and at ease.
