“Brianna is a great dog walker!! She is very quick to respond to messages and took the lead organizating the meet and greet. She was available on pretty short notice, which was such a relief. Brianna was immediately comfortable with my 150lb dog, which means she is comfortable with any dog! She is a great dog walker and I will be using her regularly!”
“We were looking for a new dog walker and we were so fortunate to find Riley. She walks our Brody every weekday and we eagerly wait to read her summaries that she thoughtfully writes every day. They tell a story of her escapades with Brody and are often very funny. We highly recommend Riley to anyone that needs her to take care of their pets.”
“So grateful for your kindness and service towards Cleo. Thank you for being communicative and caring for her. I will recommend David for his responsibility and reliability any day!!”
“Michelle was fantastic! She took great care of Bailey and provided some extra love and attention. When Bailey was feeling bad, she went the extra mile to make sure I knew how my baby was doing. Thank you, Michelle!!!”
“Kimberly was awesome with Kaya! She was patient and gentle with Kaya and sent us updates and pictures of her during the walk. Kaya came back very content and tired from her walk!”
“David was great with our pup. I was definitely nervous leaving our pup with someone since moving back to the area. David eased that anxiety and took great care of our pup. Thanks so much, David!”
“Amber has been great for our Yorkie, Cooper. She is attentive, timely, and Cooper loves her. Cooper gets a great walk midday, and she updates me on how he does. Very happy to have found her.”
“Rebecca has been wonderful so far! She has been extremely agile considering my turbulent schedule and the process of moving. Jojo seems to be happy and enjoys the break. Rebecca does great report cards, and send photos for my very not photogenic dog. 100% I recommend Rebecca for their services and abilities.”
“Jaelyn is great! She takes great care of our dog Ollie and is very flexible and sweet. I trust her fully with our boy, and he always has a great time walking with her! Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of family and friends dogs since I was 17! Since I was eight, I have had a dog in my family. Each dog is unique and different and I enjoy getting to know them. I love taking dogs on long walks, playing with them, and cuddling! My weekends are always free! I do work full-time but I have a flexible schedule since I can work from home. During the weekday, early mornings and evenings are typically free for all your pet care needs. I love house sitting versus boarding because I care about your pets experience! My dogs don’t like being boarded because it’s a strange and new place to them. So with that in mind, house sitting is my go to so that your dog feel safe and comfortable even with a stranger. I’ll make sure to always give them their space when needed but will also provide cuddles.
“Jaclyn is wonderful! She is so patient and caring with my two dogs. My neighbors have commented on how good she is with my two girls. She walks them twice a week for me. We love her.”
“Carolina was friendly, clearly loves dogs, and followed through with all my requests for the dog walk. She took very good care of our four-legged family member. I will be using her again.”
About: Experienced dog sitter and pet care professional with a passion for delivering top-notch services. I've had the pleasure of caring for a variety of furry friends, from playful puppies to huskies, and cats too. Im currently full-time, but with a flexible schedule of work from home, so I'll be with your playful pet 24/7! Im open for boarding on the weekends! I have experience in-house pet sitting and am clean, respectful, and mindful when in client's homes! I will be with the pets around the clock if needed!
“Tracy really helped us out, and the animals clearly loved her! I was able to have peace of mind while out of town because she was so diligent and kind. She sent lots of photos and the animals all looked happy and content.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love for animals. I’ve grown up around dogs and have always had a natural connection with them. I also currently have a dog of my own but In addition to caring of her , I’ve fostered puppies, volunteered with Lucky Dog Rescue, and regularly looked after my neighbors’ pets as I had my own pet sitting business when I first got to the United States. My experience has taught me how to make animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved! :) I am currently a college student down at VCU in richmond and i’m back home for the break, but due to my short summer break I can’t get a part or full time job as i’m only here for a month until I have to go back, however that means that my schedule is fairly open and very flexible! Creating a safe and trustworthy environment is very important to me. I will always respect your home and follow any rules you set. Whether I’m just stopping by for a walk or staying to care for your pet, I’ll make sure your space is kept clean and tidy. While I’m unable to host dogs in my own home, I’m more than happy to visit yours for check-ins, walks, and quality time with your pet.
“Cynthia was great! After our meet & greet I felt very comfortable having her look after my fur babies. I will definitely book her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
