Pet Sitting Elmer

About: I have cared for animals the majority of my life. In a personal as well as professional capacity. Previously, I worked for a dog daycare/boarding facility in northern Virginia which allowed me to work with dogs of different sizes and temperament. I have volunteered on and off over the years at various shelters and ranches. I currently have a certificate of completion to be a Veterinary Assistant and am looking forward to continuing my education in animal care. I work full time from home which allows me the freedom to care for my own fur babies without issue. My evenings and weekends leave me open to care for your fur babies! I have a large non-fenced backyard with a 100’ dog lead. I do supervise while my dog is on the lead to ensure their safety.

“Wow! Morgan is a fantastic sitter!! Timely and extremely attentive to our pups. Her communication with me made our time away easy. We have three dogs which can be worrisome however she made us feel at ease with them in her care. We will definitely book her again and thank her for a wonderful experience. I highly recommend her services.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since before I could walk! I’ve trained my own puppy and taken care of senior dogs. I have patience and love for animals that sets me apart! I am currently a teacher looking for a summer job, which means my schedule is very open throughout the summer months! I am available for daytime visits, walks, feedings, and pet care throughout the week. While I prefer weekdays, I am flexible and may be available on weekends when needed. I am a reliable and trustworthy person who will treat your home, dog, or cat with the same care, respect, and love that I would give my own pets. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else's care, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience.

About: I have been around dogs consistently for about 10 years and we currently have two golden retrievers in our home (5 and 1). I enjoy being around dogs and look forward to potentially helping your family and pets! I currently work full time remotely which allows a fairly flexible schedule to help meet multiple requests. Please feel free to ask any questions upon a booking request. I am flexible to be able to let your pets out, spend time with them, feed them upon request, and open to anything that will help them have a normal and enjoyable experience.

About: Early Retired with a heart full of love for animals and plenty of time to spoil your furry family member! I offer a safe, peaceful, loving environment with personalized, one-on-one attention. Whether it’s a walk, a daily check-in, or an overnight stay, your pet will be treated like family! I also offer some light grooming while pet sitting. I have cared for young & senior dogs as well as I unneutered & unspayed dogs. I retired early, and have availability to care for pets as if they were my own. My daily walks would include any dogs I’d be caring for. Your dog will enjoy all the comforts of home, including snuggles on the furniture and even sleeping in bed with me, if that's what they're accustomed to and you allow it! With 6.5 beautiful acres to explore, your pup will enjoy daily walks, outdoor adventures, plenty of playtime, and lots of love and attention. Safety is always my top priority! Although my property is not fenced, your dog will always be securely attached to me by leash or long lead while outdoors and will NEVER be left outside unattended. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, loved, and completely at home while giving you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring hands! 🐶

About: I’ve taken care of dogs throughout my life. I have experience caring for dogs big and small, of various temperaments. I also have additional experience via my volunteer work at a local animal shelter. I’m currently working part time with flex hours so I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention and excercise that he/she needs I live near a significant walking path! Perfect for walking and socializing pets! There is also a nearby dog park! Your pet will have the opportunity for plenty of exercise, socialization and enrichment.

“I don’t know where to even begin. Julia was absolutely amazing and our two boys just loved her! On the first home visit she came in, hyped up the boys into going outside, and gave them lots of treats. Our dogs are not normally around other people but they are also big babies. I would definitely recommend Julia and we will be booking with her again 😊”

Growing up, our homes were always filled with pets, ranging from dogs and cats to hedgehogs and lizards!

Nick: Nick has a full time job, so he will be available to help out when not working! Safety is my absolute top priority. I always ensure that doors, gates, and windows are closed before letting any animal roam. When we go for walks, pets are securely leashed at all times, and I am always aware of my surroundings. I ensure all hazardous items and human foods are stored far out of reach. For peace of mind, I provide clear communication and send regular photo and text updates throughout the day!

I don’t mind sending pictures and videos daily either I am retired and have an open schedule to dedicate my time to your pets.

Most importantly I will always have my eyes on your pet. They will not be left alone.

“Our dog is a “rescue dog.” He is unpredictable. When Kayley came for a drop-in visit, he barked at her viciously even though he already knew and liked her. She stayed with him until he became calm. She showed a lot of patience with him. We appreciate her skills and empathy.”

“John was caring, attentive, and a very good choice for our pet sitting situation. We will definitely use him again. His kindness was very much appreciated.”

About: I have five cats at home, each of whom I’ve raised since they were between 0–5 months old, and they truly are my whole world! I’ve also lived with and cared for dogs of all sizes over the years, from tiny Maltese to large Shepskies. In college, I even cared for two adorable hamsters. Whether your pet is big or small, energetic or shy, I’m passionate about providing loving, reliable care and building trust with every furry friend I meet. I understand how important it is to know your pet is in good hands, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own💕 I work as a scientist during the day, 3 days in office and 2 at home. I can fit walks/drop-ins into my lunch breaks at home and after work I can come by to check on or walk your furry loved one! My weekend availability is very open as well. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I know every pet has their own personality and preferences, so I’ll take the time to learn their routine and follow your instructions closely. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, feeding, medications, or just some extra cuddles, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home, will leave everything just as I found it, and will always make sure doors, gates, and windows are secure.

About: Hi! Woof! I have been loving dogs since I was born. When you couldn't find me as a child, it was probably because I was in the dog house, surrounded by 15 pit bull puppies. Living the dream! Now I have a dog of my very own and have been proud to call my son for 15 years. I also am the the proud Aunt to 5 other babies of all different sizes and breeds. I have wonderful dog friends who I get to visit and care for, and I just love it. I have had experience caring for 7 newborn puppies, expecting mothers, females in heat, etc. I love to cuddle but if that’s not your thing, that’s okay too! We can take as many walks as you need to get your exercise in. There's plenty of love and time offered because I want you to feel safe, secure, and loved while in my care, whether that's a walk down the street or at bedtime. Thank you for taking time to read my profile, if you feel I might be a good match for your baby, please feel free to reach out! ❤️🐾 I work a full time teaching position currently, so I am available after 3pm and don’t usually am awake until 11:30pm and don’t mind walking at night. My preferred leash, which I always have on hand, wraps and clips around my waist so your dog will be securely attached to my body no matter what. At this time, I cannot offer boarding or daycare unless at the clients house. With that said, I cleaned homes for many years and always respect another persons home. I’m there for your dog, and serve no other purpose.

“Nicole did a great job checking in and feeding our cats. She provided us with pictures and daily updates. I would highly recommend her. Thank you Nicole for taking care of our cats.”
