Dog Walkers in Dublin, VA

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and various animals, I bring a deep understanding of their needs. In high school I took many animal care classes that have educated me on what's best for your furry friend, setting me apart from normal sitters. I’ve worked in an animal hospital, gaining valuable skills in handling all types of pets, from puppies to senior dogs. I have experience administering medications to dogs and working with many dogs at once. I have grown up having dogs as pets and know that this task takes high responsibility and flexibility. I’m dedicated to offering personalized, compassionate care that ensures your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're away. As a student at Virginia Tech, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate your pet care needs. I’m usually free on weekends and during weekdays when my classes don’t overlap, so you can count on me to provide reliable care when it’s most convenient for you. I can work around my class schedule during the school year to provide quality care for your pet. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and familiar environment for your pets. When caring for your pet in your home, on walks, or occasional potty breaks I will follow your guidelines closely to maintain routines that your pets are accustomed to and feel comfortable with. My goal is to build trust with both you and your pet by providing a caring, respectful experience where safety and love is always my top priority.

About: Dogs are truly a gift in this world. I have a deep respect for their qualities of intelligence and loyalty. From Chihuahuas to Great Danes, I have experience with a wide range of dog breeds. One of my best friends is a Blue Heeler named Valentine and I’ve cared for her since she was a puppy. I grew up with a Yorkshire Terrier (and a bird and turtles). As a kid, my dream was to one day become a veterinarian. I wound up studying Psychology in college, but animals and caring for non-verbal creatures are both lifelong passions/pursuits of mine. From dogs who like spa days, to working dogs who prefer having a job, I can guarantee your dog(s) will feel seen and heard when Phoenix comes to visit. I aim for that happy dog wiggle dance greeting at the door, but also understand when a dog needs space. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for overnight stays all days of the week. I guarantee you and your animals peace-of-mind, and will do my very best to uphold whatever routines you have set in place. Your home is a sanctuary and my goal is for you to return home happy every time.

About: I’ve had 2 dogs of my own and worked in a dog daycare/boarding facility. I’ve given medication, given potty breaks, broken up fights, fed at designated feeding times, and given baths and nail trims if needed! I currently go to school to become a veterinary technician I am available to pet sit any day of the week from 11am-6:30pm. For pet walking I’m available any day from 11am-4:30pm where the last walk will be occurring at 4:30! I will clean up any mess made by me and your pup while playing. I’ll be able to feed, give medication, and play with your dog based on your schedule that you set.

“Thank you for taking such good care of our fur babies!”

About: I have a small pet sitting business outside of rover as well & I care for lots of different animals. I love meeting new animals and working with them, my dogs are very sweet and have made lots of friends from these visits. I am normally home all of the time, so there’s always someone here to provide attention and care for all animals during their stay with us. All animals are allowed in any part of my home. I can administrate medications. We have a fenced in yard for them to run and play and can offer separated potty areas or walks.

“Jessie was very good with my dog. My dog enjoyed her company :)”

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was a teenager, both for and outside of my family. I became a certified veterinarian assistant and have worked at animal clinics for seven years. I am able to do both simple and advanced skills like dog walking, drop-in play visits and administering medications. With having a diabetic dog, I have experience administering insulin and understanding the responsibilities that come with those cases. I currently work full-time at the animal clinic, but have availability during lunch hours during the work week. On Fridays and the weekends I am more flexible. At this time, I am unable to provide services at my home. In the future I will revisit that as a possible added opportunity to care for your pets.

“Impromptu travel as usual and I needed a walker for my Cutie. Trying to reach a couple of Rover walkers in the area was a wash. Thankfully I didn’t give up I found Brittany. Brittany is heaven sent she was available for my request. Honestly based on her qualifications and her love of animals she’s better than most. She was prompt with Cuties schedule unlike other walkers. I’ve had nightmares of my ride didn’t make it and Uber delays. Cutie took a liking to Brittany which was refreshing because she picks and chooses who she’s like lol. I will most definitely schedule Brittany again in the future.”

Communication with pet owners is a priority, and I remain flexible to accommodate special requests or changes. Pet care is not just a job, but a passion and lifestyle dedicated to the well-being and happiness of pets. I provide care for pets both in my own home and in my clients' homes. In my own home, I ensure that pets have a comfortable and safe environment. This includes providing them with their own space, such as a designated area or room, where they can rest and relax. I also make sure they have access to food, water, and toys to keep them entertained. Regular exercise and playtime are important to keep pets happy and healthy, so I make sure to engage them in activities they enjoy. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I follow their specific instructions and routines to maintain familiarity and minimize stress for the pets. This includes feeding them according to their usual schedule, administering any necessary medications, and providing them with companionship and attention. I make sure to keep their living spaces clean and tidy, including regularly cleaning litter boxes, cages, or any other designated areas. In both settings, I prioritize the well-being and safety of the pets. This involves monitoring their behavior and health, and promptly addressing any issues or concerns. I also maintain open and regular communication with the pet owners, providing updates on their pets' well-being and addressing any special requirements or requests they may have. Overall, my goal is to provide a loving and comfortable environment for pets, whether it is in my own home or in the homes of my clients.

About: So I have always been a loner in life. I'm that person that wants to take in the strays. I always say the animals choose me. In today's society no one has time to sit home all day and play with their pets. Thats what im here for. I can potty train, Crate train, and leash train. I love to go on walks and send lots of updates. So pet sitting is my only thing going on at the moment. I accept last minute emergencies, or plan ahead visits. I can keep them all day or however long you need me to. If you need a middle of the night drop off, im your girl. My pets run free. I don't leash my own but if yours is a runner I have a tie out or I can put them on their leash for a nice walk. At night, mine sleep in their kennels with the door open. Its kinda just a bed with walls.

About: I have experience with jobs as temporary as just walking and feeding to staying with pets for a weeks at a time. Experience with mostly larger breed dogs. I work full time during the week at an insurance company and am best available during the weekend's due to my schedule and allocated time for the gym. I’m very attentive to the needs and wants of any animal in my care dude to my compassion and love I have for all creatures.
