About: I am a fur mommy to an amazing little guy we call Charlie Brown! He is wonderful with adults and children alike! We would love to find him some new friends by watching your cute fur babies too! In my house, someone is always home, so your pet would never be alone! We love to go on long walks through the neighborhood and the local park. Our Charlie Brown loves car rides! My husband is great with animals and loves to play with them! We also have a 3 year old girl who is learning to play with our dogs as well and a full of life 6 year old boy who loves animals, so playtime is all the time here! There is never a dull moment, that's for sure! If you aren't comfortable with your pet coming to our house, that's ok too! I can come to you! I'm a trustworthy, respectful, playful dogsitter as well. Transportation is not an issue. I can stay over night or I can just check in from time to time with your little one. It's all up to you! Let me know what you need and we can figure it all out. I am looking forward to hearing from you and to getting to know all of those adorable fur babies!!!! "Ready to spoil, walk, pet and play! With our family, it's always a fun day!!!" I work for myself so my schedule is never an issue! Whatever may be needed, I will make happen. However, written instructions are always helpful! I don't have a fenced yard. However I do have a runner line that your pets can be hooked to outside so they can play as much as they want to without worry!!

About: I've had experience taking care of dogs since I was the age of 10 years old. I have done this for family and friends for many years and even assist with grooming needs. I also have experience with giving medications to pets as I have worked as a veterinary assistant in the past. I am currently working at an elementary school but going to school to allow me to have a work from home job. Until then I am more free in the afternoon and evening but I am able to free up some time in the morning to help out. During the summer I do summer camp, working the afternoon/evening shift; however, I am able to adjust my schedule as needed. I have a fenced in yard here at my house so my dogs have free range of the back yard, however when we did not have one we had them out at least every hour. Our dogs get feed twice a day, morning and night, but I can switch however to fit your pet best! During my free time my boyfriend and I like to take our dog, Rico, to go hiking and swimming. We would love to be able to bring him a friend!

“I only needed a few minutes with Liz and my dog to know he was in good hands. Liz has been prompt, reliable, kind, and competent. Perfect person to walk my skittish dog.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs , guinea pigs , cats , and other animals since I was a small child . I’ve always loved animals and have a high and caring energy for them. I’m currently working part-time , so caring for your pets could easily fit into my schedule! Im very flexible and am eager to help you out. I maintain my pets and work on their tricks and health every day. I adore seeing them grow and develop. Their safety and health is of the most importance to me.

About: I've taken care of cats all my life and dogs from time to time. From back when I was a teen at home with our family cat to my own Tuxedo Kiwi I've been caring for cats all my life. I have a deep understanding of cat body language, respecting their boundaries, and providing the attention and care they need. I work from home as a software developer and am looking for something to break up my day between calls and project tasks. Being a remote worker means I don't get much excitement day to day. Let me change up my day to day by helping you out with your pets! I live in my own home with plenty of space for walks, trails nearby for exploring, and an open and clean home for time away from the sun.

About: For as long as I can remember, animals have always been apart of my life. I have owned a wide variety of animals such as dogs, cats, goats, chickens, and a guinea pig. I am a third year student at James Madison University studying biology with a pre veterinary medicine minor. I have worked in the veterinary industry for 5 years as a kennel technician and veterinary assistant. This job has not only allowed me to become adequately trained in pet care, but has also shown me how much I love being around animals. I am so excited to continue my pet care journey and I am looking forward to getting to meet more people and pets!! I am a full time student, but spend almost all of my free time with animals. To care for pets at my clients homes, I either stay overnight or return multiple times a day to ensure pets stay safe, healthy, and happy. I make it my priority to care for pets in the same manner as their owners would. With that being said, I work diligently to follow clients instructions to better ensure a smooth experience for you and your pet.

“Nice, gentle, and knowledgeable.”

About: Hello! I am a responsible, dependable, young working professional but a lady of many trades! One of those side gigs includes pet sitting furbabies! I am very outdoorsy and enjoyed hiking and trail running with my dogs (my Jack Russell Terriers recently passed away). :( In my undergrad days I worked for a professional petsitter company and have checked on a variety of critters over the years. I have cared for pets in a variety of settings; including overnight visits, transports, daily walks or just hanging out for play time. I would be happy to take your fur baby out for a hike or a game of fetch! I've cared for everything from puppies, horses, farm animals, wheel chair doggies, old kitties and everything in between! As a child I had a desire to be a vet and much prefer spending time with animals (small and large) over humans! When I am not out in the forest adventuring you can usually find me hanging with cute fur babies and talking to them like they are humans. :) I am also human wilderness first aid and CPR trained. I try to work with people on scheduling as best I can! I have a fairly flexible schedule but need a heads up to accommodate usually. I am a early riser and let my dog out super early so welcome early a.m. visits as your place or mine. Can also accommodate hectic travel schedules, I.e met at airport late flight arrivals, change of plans. I have a unfenced yard but plenty of property for daily walks. Property sits against fenced in horses on 1 side. I am routinely around during the day.

About: Hi there! I'm a young professional who's grown up surrounded by animals ever since I can remember.

Now, with about a decade of professional experience and a work-from-home arrangement, I can offer your pets consistent care and attention throughout the day. I've cared for all sorts of pets – from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra TLC. Whether it's following special diets, administering medications, or using that one trick that always calms an anxious rescue, I adapt to each pet's unique needs.

Communication is crucial to me, so you can expect consistent updates and photos of your pets if desired. By choosing me, you're securing a dependable, seasoned, and adaptable caregiver who'll treat your fuzzy family members with the devotion and care all animals deserve. Let's work together to keep your pets happy and healthy! As a work-from-home professional, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine. I'm available throughout the day for walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins. Work officially ends around 4:30pm for me most days - however, my flexible schedule allows me to accommodate various pet care needs, anywhere between early morning visits to evening care. Weekends are open for more extensive services like boarding/home stays. I'm committed to working with you to provide consistent, attentive care that fits your pet's routine and your schedule.

“Mandy will go above and beyond for your doggos! We had to leave our dogs for the first time and she came and walked them, made sure they had food and water and was even willing to clean up some. She has really put our minds at ease while being out of town and will definitely use her services in the future ?”

About: Life long animal lover and pet parent, who recognizes that our furry friends are our family and deserve the best care and consideration! I've taken care of animals since I was kiddo, and currently share a roof with three cats and one pup. Friends, family, former employers, and my very own animals trust me to watch, walk, feed, water, groom (brushing, bathing, trimming nails) and lavish their cats and dogs with attention. My availability varies, as I work in the Events field, but I am ready and interested to take on regular weekday workday (9-5) walking duties with your pups! As a guest in your home, I will show your space and family the utmost respect. Being invited into your family's space is a privilege.

“Katie is so amazing, very down to earth and understanding of my dogs quirks and needs. Super excited to have found such a sweet person to help me with my dog Dakota. Will definitely be booking again.”

About: I have lots of experience working with a variety of different animals including dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and exotics. I have been assisting a friend for a few years walking dogs and figured it's time to offer my individual services! I will be home majority of the day to take care of any critters under my roof. I currently have no pets of my own to tend to other than some axolotls, so I am completely open to whatever needs an animal has. Inside my own home, I have a very minimalist approach to decor so there isn't much for animals to get injured on or involved with. I can take dogs out to the backyard for potty breaks and playtime and I also live a short walk from a park. Inside your home, I can care for a dog or cat however you instruct.

About: Hi, My name is Torie. I am a nurse. I grew up on a farm with horses, goats, chickens, donkeys, and of course dogs/cats. I worked at the Virginia Tech Dairy, milking cows and feeding calves, during my time as an undergraduate at Virginia Tech. I currently own a horse and I have two dogs. I have a heart for taking care of animals and I have a lot of experience. I have experience with caring for special needs, administering medications, and wound/injury care. I love all animals. I have two acres at my house, it’s not fenced in but I have gps fence collars. I have access to a large farm and river frontage where your dog can be thoroughly exercised with permission. Terms negotiable. Feel free to ask any questions you might have. :) The pets are taken care of before anything else. They will be let out, fed their breakfast, and exercised first thing in the morning. They will be let out or walked every 4 hours or less. I will either leash walk your pet or I do have a gps fence e collar available. My dogs are very friendly and playful. They get along with all dogs from teeny pocket beagles to huge hounds and everything in between.

About: Hi, I'm Hannah! I am reliable, trustworthy, honest, and will treat your pets with the very best of care. I have been petsitting all throughout high school to make a side income, and am now trying to help pay my way through college by housesitting and other odd jobs. For my entire childhood, I took care of my family's farm animals (chickens, cows, horses, cats, and dogs) so I am well versed and comfortable with any type of animal. I have experience with Border Collies, Standard Poodles, and Dachshunds, as well as many other breeds. Please let me know if you have any questions or inquiries! I look forward to the opportunity to meet your pups! I have seasonal work that usually ends mid June and resumes in August. During the summer, I have the most flexibility, due to college courses and assignments to work around. Work (i.e. your pets) is the most important thing to me, so I can definitely account for your schedule and find the system that fits us both the best. My family recently rescued an unruly Bernedoodle puppy, so to prevent any unwanted conflict, I only care for pets in their home during this time. Dogs are usually more comfortable and less stressed in their own surroundings, so until they get used to me, I feel this is best.

About: My family has always had animals and we couldn’t live without them. I’ve always been the biggest animal lover 🖤🐾 no matter the size or breed, I’ll treat them like I would my own!

I prioritize my own health so daily walking and playing with your fur babies will be enjoyable for the both of us! 🥰 I am a nurse first but if I didn’t take care of humans for a living, I’d take care of pets without a doubt. I am patient, honest, gentle, and trustworthy. I’ve never met an animal who didn’t gravitate towards me. You can rely on me to get the job done.

About: We have had animals all of my life in my adult life we have had dogs cats, turtles, horses, goats chickens, pretty much you name it I’ve had it currently I have a dog with some special needs so I am familiar and able to work around dogs that have special care restrictions So I am home every day but Tuesdays and Thursdays, which means I am able to walk your furry friends.
