About: With a lifelong passion for animals, I have been a devoted lover and caregiver of dogs and cats since childhood. From having my own pets to caring for those of my neighbors in their absence, my commitment to animal welfare is a fundamental part of who I am. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your puppies! I'm available Monday to Friday from 2:00pm to 11:00pm and weekends only in the evenings from 8:00pm to 12:00pm. I would prefer to take care of your pets in the comfort of their home, where they feel safest and most at ease, or take them for walks in the park, enjoying the fresh air and nature, or even to the beach, where they can run and play freely while soaking up the sun and the sea breeze.
2. Julia H.
“Julia has dog sit for me multiple times. One particular time, she stayed with my dog for a whole week while I was on vacation. She provided exceptional care for my sweet pup. Every day I was gone she would send me pictures and give me updates on how he was doing. My dog gets excited every time he sees her and she makes sure to spend extra time petting him and playing with him outside of her required duties...walking, feeding, etc. I have seen her interact with my dog as well as other animals, and I can tell she genuinely has a love for animals, and animals have a love for her. I would trust her with my dog any day and know that she would go above and beyond. Julia is the first person I ask when I need help with my pup. She is an excellent communicator and is very flexible. I would recommend Julia in a heartbeat, she is wonderful!”

“Catherine was wonderful. She made me feel so at ease. She sent updates and photos at each visit. She was kind when I accidentally booked for the wrong time, and was flexible to return later even though it was clearly my error. Will definitely request to book with her again!”
4. Faith G.
“Faith stayed at my home to watch my 4 dogs and cat while we were on vacation. We’ve had Faith back several times after and it’s always been great. She is such a fun person and always sends us multiple updates and even a few pictures. My pets absolutely adore her! Tanya M.”
5. Nicole N.
“Nicole was fantastic with our cat. She sent lots of pictures and helped when our little one left a few messes around the house. I would absolutely book Nicole again.”

About: I have decades of animal care experience, working with cats, dogs, and multiple other species. I currently own and operate a rabbitry. I have worked at multiple dog kennels, including free run facilities, and have worked at the SPCA and the Virginia zoo in Norfolk, Virginia. Let me know what your needs are, and we will see if I can accommodate your needs, as my schedule is very open and flexible. My pet care is very custom tailored to your needs and your pet’s needs, let me know what you need and what your pet prefers. I have 4 dogs that stay exclusively in the back part of the home and have access to the backyard. Doggies I am sitting stay exclusively in the front part of the home and have access to the front yard, so there is non interaction between my dogs. My dogs are friendly with other dogs but this arrangement just makes it easier and more comfortable for yours = )
7. Karen D.
“Knowing Karen for over 40 years and her love for animals, she would be my first call to watch any of my furr babies. We grew up on farms just a mile away from each other and Karen had taught me so much about the care of animals. She is gentle loving and dedicated to care for others animals, like they are hers. She loves each animal the same, and her love for nature makes her a great candidate to walk, babysit, and care for your furr babies.”

About: As a passionate pet sitter, I bring a wealth of experience and genuine love for dogs to every interaction. With a Golden Doodle of my own, I understand firsthand the joys and responsibilities of canine companionship. I take great pleasure in walking dogs and engaging them in playful activities, tailoring each interaction to their individual preferences and energy levels. Whether it's a leisurely stroll through the neighborhood or an energetic game of fetch, I ensure that every dog under my care receives ample exercise and stimulation. But it's not just about physical activity – I cherish those quiet moments too. There's nothing I love more than cuddling up on the couch with my own pup, sharing affection and creating cherished memories together. And rest assured, I extend the same level of warmth and companionship to every dog I care for. Whether it's snuggling up for a cozy cuddle session or simply enjoying each other's company, I prioritize creating a nurturing and comforting environment for all furry friends in my care. With me as your pet sitter, you can trust that your beloved canine companion will receive the same love, attention, and companionship that I wholeheartedly provide to my own furry family member. Pet care is a fundamental part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day, I allocate time for feeding, walking, and play sessions to ensure that the pets under my care receive the attention and exercise they need to thrive. Additionally, I prioritize grooming and health maintenance activities as needed. On weekends, I extend this care with longer walks, trips to the park, and extra playtime to enrich their experience and strengthen our bond. Overall, pet care is not just a duty but a joyful commitment that I integrate seamlessly into my life. In my home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment for the pets under my care. This means ensuring that my home is pet-friendly, free from hazards, and securely fenced if necessary. Pets have access to cozy bedding, toys, and designated areas for rest and play. I incorporate daily walks, playtime, and outdoor activities to keep pets active and healthy. Additionally, I provide regular feeding times with high-quality food, adhering to any dietary restrictions or preferences. Most importantly, pets receive plenty of love, cuddles, and one-on-one attention throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect the space and adhere to the client's guidelines. This includes maintaining cleanliness and orderliness during my stay. I follow the pet's established routine for feeding, walking, and play to maintain consistency and comfort. I also ensure that doors and gates are securely closed to prevent pets from escaping and that the home is safe from potential hazards. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and communicate any concerns or observations to the client to maintain transparency and trust. Finally, I go the extra mile to make pets feel loved and cared for, whether through additional playtime, grooming, or special treats. Overall, whether in my home or a client's home, my priority is to provide compassionate, attentive, and personalized care that meets the unique needs of each pet and gives pet parents peace of mind.

12. Lauren K.
About: Hi, my name is Lauren. I love animals of all types and sizes. I grew up in Virginia with a variety of critters. I have four rescue pups (including a paralyzed girl so I am able to express if needed), chickens, ducks, fish, and a turtle. I have experience working with all breeds of dogs along with a variety of other animals. Willing to watch dogs/farm animals/birds/cats/fish - you name it! I don't add extra per animal fees unless the work is very excessive. I am a farmer so I have a flexible schedule. I will ensure that your pets are treated with love and care while you are away, so that you can have a worry free, relaxing trip. If desired, I can update you daily with a text or photos. Your pets (and I) will have fun while you are away! I am a farmer so my schedule is generally pretty flexible. I am usually available morning, afternoon, and evening. I am available on most weekends. I generally do not bring dogs to my home. But if needed, I have ample space and outdoor areas. The dog could mingle with pets, or I could provide a separate space.

“Brittany was AWESOME! I was so anxious leaving my dogs as I usually don’t do drop-in service but she really set my mind at ease. She was so kind and my dogs loved her and all the walks & trips to the dog park. She even kept my destructive/playful corgi from tearing apart his beloved tennis balls ? I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you!!!”
