House Sitting in Dinwiddie Gardens

“Erika did an incredible job taking care of our dog, and two cats. She sent updates regularly, and we could tell our fur babies loved her. Our dog smiled ear to ear in all the pictures, and our usually shy cats immediately took a shine to her. During her stay, our dog had an upset tummy, brought on by the stress of us leaving. She took amazing care of him, and made sure nothing was seriously wrong. Her regular communication made us feel at ease, knowing our dog was in good hands. Erika took care of our home like it was her own. She noticed ants in our upstairs office, and helped us fix the issue by alerting us and placing ant traps. This really stood out to us, because she didn’t need to solve the problem, but did anyway. She also left our home sparkling. She cleaned her bedding and towels, and left the countertops and living space spotless. Honestly, it looks better in here than when we left on vacation. We will definitely book with Erika in the future!”

“MacKenzie was fantastic! We had a family member cancel with short notice for watching out 2 dogs and 3 cats for a week while we were going on vacation. I quickly hopped on Rover to see who was near us, and decided to message MacKenzie based on other reviews that had been left. She was quickly able to come over and meet our gang to make sure it would be a fit. After that initial meeting, my husband and I both felt very comfortable and confident with her coming to stay and take care of things while we were gone. The day we were supposed to leave, we ran into some issues but MacKenzie was flexible and fast to communicate. She was very punctual and sent brief updates/questions throughout the week (she has our preference on communication and we had told her we didn't need regular check ins or updates). When we got home, we could tell our dogs and cats had missed us, but it was also clear that they had been well taken care of. Overall, if and when I may need another house & pet sitter, I wouldn't hesitate to reach back out to MacKenzie and I won't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for help.”

“We had an amazing experience with Allyson! From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly cared about our two dogs' well-being. Both pups were so well taken care of, and we loved receiving updates and pictures while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. We’ll definitely be booking with Allyson again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

About: Hi! my name is Denique and I have a strong love for all types of animals. I am a 24yr old graduate from A&T University with a major in Animal Science. I have been caring for pets ever since I was a toddler. Caring for a pet in my household has always been my responsibility and I’ve done so very well, although I currently do not own a pet at the moment it just makes me more passionate to care for others. Making sure your pet is happy, safe, and having a good time is one of my main priorities. I am so excited to care for your pets and give them the best time. I promise I will be extremely loving to your animals. <3 I hope you decide to pick me as your pet sitter, you will not be dissatisfied. Feel free to contact me anytime. I currently have a job at a vet hospital where I tend to work long shifts throughout the week. In order to make sure your pet gets the most quality time they deserve I schedule my time where I am available to fulfill the needs of your pet. Your animals safety is one of my main priorities because I want to make sure they are always comfortable. When outside I prefer to leash your pet or hold them for their protection until we are in a safe area.

“It was not easy leaving my dogs but I knew they were in good hands the minute I met Meghan. She took great care of my dogs and sent me detailed updates. I highly recommend Meghan and will definitely use her again!”

“Jammie did it again. She takes such great care of our animals while we are away. We feel no anxiety at all leaving our fur babies in her care. I cannot recommend her enough. Communication and thoughtfulness can’t be beat!”

“Very helpful and communicative”

“I wish I could give 10 stars instead of 5 because that's how good Emily was with our dogs. She is personable and kind and our girls took to her instantly during our preliminary meeting before our trip. She made me feel comfortable leaving our pets and I knew they would be safe and loved while she housesat for us. Excellent communication and just a good person all around. Our dogs were pampered and cared for and I'm sure forgot all about the fact we were gone for 4 days. I am so happy we found Emily.”

“Bethany did an amazing with my babies. She pays attention to details. I highly recommend her and I will use her again.”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 7 years old and professionally since I was 18 years old. I love ALL animals. I have experience with the following animals: Bearded Dragons, Cats, Dogs, Ferrets, Rabbits, Fish, Hamsters, and Birds. I know how to administer shots and give medications orally to Cats, Dogs, and Ferrets. I believe that pets aren't pets - they are family. I live in a house with my husband, 4 month old baby, and 2 kitties. I work a 9-5 full time job but can take breaks to help with walks, potty breaks, and feedings. I promise to give all of the love and attention your animal needs. If you have any questions or need any additional information, please reach out to me. Thank you! I have a full-time job however, I can take breaks throughout the day to attend to your animal's needs (walks, potty breaks, food, etc.). I have full availability on the weekends. I have 2 cats who get along with other animals. They roam around the house and tend to do their own thing. Staying in client homes, I will only use items/rooms that I am told can be used. I ALWAYS clean up after myself and will do light housework if asked/needed.

“Mackenzie was awesome just like family! I would recommend her to anyone! Thank you Mackenzie for taking care of Buddy!”

“Trinity was amazing. My charlie is a big boy with a lot of energy. She walked him until he was exhausted. She took lots of pictures and even kept him for an extra day while we were out of town. She has a great personality and you can tell that she loves animals she was very good with Charlie I will definitely book with her again”

Candice W.

“We feel like we won the lotto with Safiyyah! All of our dogs loved her, even the shy one. She was attentive and didn’t hesitate to text if she had questions or concerns. She did a great job of keeping us informed and sending pictures of the pups. 10/10 recommend!”

Missy L.

“We loved having Autumn house sit and watch our pups, would definitely book again! She was communicative, kind, and left the house very clean✨”

About: I’ve always had multiple dogs my entire 28 years of life! As the youngest of 3, it was always up to me to walk, feed, and train the dogs. I currently have a 5 year old pit/pointer mix and a dachshund mix under a year old! We love going for walks at the river or visiting the dog park in Chester! My wife and I also have 2 cats, meaning our dogs are very active friendly! We love all animals, shape and sizes! We reside in Colonial Heights and have a relatively decent sized fenced in back yard! Our cats are spoiled and have a dedicated room where they can come and go as they please, no dogs allowed! We also have a spare room to accommodate any dogs that may need to be separate for any reasons. Safety is very important to me! In my car I have multiple doggy seatbelts and harnesses dedicated for riding. I look forward to showing your dog or cat to the Daisey Does It way! I truly care for anyone’s pets as my own. I currently work part time while attending part time classes at Brightpoint Community College. I’m home except for a few early mornings, so my availability is pretty open. I can walk dogs or do home visits throughout the day or night. I can also board a dog(s) on most nights throughout the week. I have a relatively large fenced in yard with lots of doggy toys! My wife and I have 2 dogs that love meeting new friends to play with! We also have two cats, they have always been around dogs. We treat all animals as our own. We believe animals are better than people, haha! Our pets are our children, they are allowed on the furniture, and sleep with us as well. We can crate your animal if needed and have a spare room if you’d like your animal separated for any reasons. Our dogs are trained for off leash hikes, but we do walk them around the neighborhood as well. I’d love to take your fur baby to the local river trails even to run off leash in my backyard!

About: I've had pets my whole life from the biggest of dogs to cutest of cats. I'm a very active mom, and fitness lover that could always use a furry partner. 🐕‍🦺🐈 I'm currently working mornings 7am-3pm, so anytime before 6 am or after 4pm drop off works best for me. I have a back yard as well as 1 lovely cat that usually doesnt mind other cats or dogs being around. My home is clean warm and inviting to all animals. Hooray! As a mom pet care fits into my schedule perfectly. My kids have a lot of fun with all animals that come to our home. I currently moved into a smaller place but my 6 year old son and a young wild & free 3 year old son, who can't get enough of the running he gets to do during my sits.

About: I’ve taken care of all of the animals my neighbors and family have had since I was able to walk. Animals mean everything to me I only work part time (and plan to keep it that way) so I’m always available to take care of your animals for you, especially on the weekends and holidays I stay in an apartment without a yard unfortunately, but there are dog parks that I visit often near by and plenty of space inside my home and around the complex for your animal.

About: I have groomed a dog before. I have bottle fed kittens in my vet program. I have been dealing with dogs and cats almost all my life. I do work during the week on some days, but I am very flexible with my schedule. I don’t work on weekends, so that is very available. At my home, I have two dogs and they are well cared for. They have a nice, big fenced back yard and they get play time a lot, so that they can stay active.

“Kristen watched my French bulldog in my home. She was responsive and took great care of mila. I would definitely recommend her and use her again in the future.”
