Dog Walkers in Fairfield, VA

“Awesome job!”

“Just wonderful, haven’t been able to meet up yet,(work work work )however very wonderful communication and updates she comes to let my my pup out and give her a little energy release on my 12hr shifts. Quick responses and overall feelings of trust with a person coming into my home! She even makes sure to tell me what my cat was up to when she visits. Nothing but great experiences with her!”

“Erin is an amazing person. Immediately upon meeting Erin we could sense her positive energy and confidence with animals. She was extremely personable and our dog Winston fell in love with her immediately. She took perfect care of Winston through the weekend, enabling us to have a weekend away for the first time in a year. We cannot recommend Erin any more highly. Thank you Erin!”

“Owen has done an incredible job watching our dogs on multiple occasions. My wife and I trust him to stay in our house full time to be with our pets. He is respectful of the house and carries out all the pet instructions including medicines, walks, and food. I would recommend Owen to anyone looking for a responsible, caring pet sitter.”

“The daily reports and photos are very much appreciated and very reassuring that all is well with my two pups. Melissa leaves a thorough report and makes sure that the dogs have exercise and are well looked after. I am very happy with the service she provides.”

About: I’ve dog/cat sat since I’ve been in high school! I am now 25 and still do pet sitting as a side job here and there. I love taking dogs out for walks and play time! I have a 1.5 year old dog of my own named Raya, who is a sweetheart, loves people and other animals 💜 I currently work full time with set 12 hour days and I am looking for a side job that I will enjoy doing on my days off. I have 6 acres of farm land available for dogs to run and play on. I can easily crate your dogs. I can give medication/supplements as needed.

About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats since I was a little girl, I love to take care of dogs and cats! :). Ok I'm currently working part time and I'll be more than happy to fit my schedule with pets! I can do weekdays mornings, Sundays, and Saturdays afternoon. Thank you! I'm my clients house, I'll take the dog out for a walk when it's not too Hot, their paws get hot too, I'll take care of them inside and feed them.

“Rachel is super reliable. We've used her for our human babies and she is so caring. She loves our 3 dogs like her own when she see them. Rachel rocks! I totally trust her with all my babies!”

About: I owned a dog since she was a puppy in 2004 until she passed away in 2015. Since then I have owned cats, fostered many dogs, which led to me foster failing and keeping Kuvira! I more recently adopted my puppy Misa and rescued my other dog Sterling. My current cats are all rescues, some of them were even born in my backyard. I have raised most of them from kittens so I’m used to spending a lot of time with cats, scooping litter, cleaning up hairballs, and taking time to earn cats trust! I've stayed overnight with a pet while the owner is away short or long term, I've done drop-ins for feeding/letting dogs out to use the restroom, and longer walks. I have dealt with dogs of all ages from young puppies to elder animals. I'm willing to work with special needs or disabled dogs as well, and it's my goal to bond with the dogs I care for so they are comfortable and happy. I want both the pet and owners to trust me to do the best I can. I have experience giving medication (oral and injections), I have previously worked as a manager for a dog daycare and was employed at an animal shelter. I am confident in my ability to handle animals with care and read their body language when interacting. Pet safety and happiness are my priorities. My current group is a handful and one of my dogs in particular struggles with anxiety and reactivity, so if your dog has similar behavioral issues don't worry! I am used to reactivity and am willing to learn all about your dog and how to handle certain behaviors. I am an apprentice at a tattoo shop right now, so I’m mostly available in the mornings, evenings and nights. I am more than happy to figure out how to meet your pets needs. My home is a little chaotic with 3 dogs and 6 cats. I don't currently offer boarding or daycare from my home but I hope to in the future! My house is divided up using gates to keep dogs in areas I can supervise them. The cat litter boxes are in a room the dogs cannot get to and the cats have plenty of vertical places to climb away from the dogs. I make sure to show each animal individualized attention throughout the day, and I would do the same with a client's pet!

“There is so much that I can say about Josie. First of all, she just knows how to take care of my animals even though she hasn’t known me that long. She is great with time management with the animals and a very good person all around. She has such a friendly demeanor and she’s very flexible time-wise. I have four dogs and three cats and Josie does it all for me and she even goes beyond what I ask her to in order for her to give that extra “oomph”.”

“My giant baby loves his daycare. All his pictures are of smiles and good play and rest times. I have a 11 month pure saint Bernard so he is nowhere near small and she accommodates all my crazy random schedules. Pick up and drops off are so quick and smooth I love that she sends me updates about my baby my anxiety is usually on 10 but lis personality and professionalism and caring for him like family is 10 out of 10. I wish I could attach the photos she sends me I love to see him happy while I'm out working to feed his giant stomach lol. Thank you”

“Lauren has been walking my newly adopted dog for a couple of weeks of now and it really puts my mind at ease when I have longer work days. She works with me on arrival time and I always get a report card ! I trust Lauren coming into my home and I am very pleased!!”

“Steven does a great job of housesitting for our many pets! He gives lots of love and cuddles to the dogs. Siren sits at the door when he comes and then runs for him. I know he brushes Ebony because he leaves a bit of hair left behind. But that's ok because the dogs are constantly shedding, and brushing is something I seem to forget. He's taken care of our rabbits, including cleaning cages, feeding them, putting them outside, (and bringing them in) and they always look healthy and well fed when we get home. He's even had experience feeding our Gecko and the Russian Tortoise. (and the bearded dragon, guinea pigs, and hamsters when they were part of our family zoo!)”

“Ian took very good care of our dog psi”

“Great pet sitter and great person in general. My family left instructions for her to follow and she had no problem doing what we asked. She was able to stay and play with the dogs as well as our cat. She frequently took them on walks when she visited. Our pets love her and I would highly recommend her as a pet sitter.”

“I would recommend Margaret to anyone who has a pet. She has the kindest sole, and will love your animals as though they were her own. She loves her own dogs with all heart, and is the best Momma to those puppers. She has a wonderful personality, and a lot of energy. For those dogs that need someone with patience.....she has a ton of that!!”

“Day is a true animal lover. My dog, Buddy and cats Phantom and Mouse were immediately drawn to her. She was there for me at a last minute dog walking request and helped me out by ensuring that my furry friends were well taken care of. I am so grateful to have found a devoted animal lover.”

“Hands down the best pet sitter. Tawny has cared for our 4 cats, two pups & our African Grey Parrot for several years. She’s dependable and all my pets love her. We never worry when on vacation or out of town, Tawny is the best because her love of animals makes her the perfect pet sitter. Book her, you won’t be disappointed.”
