“Brad did an outstanding job with caring for our fur baby Rocky. We were away for almost a week and he made sure to give him a little extra care and comfort to make sure Rocky felt loved and cared for. He took him on extra long walks and made sure to connect with him on each visit. Highly highly recommend him and will definitely request again!”

“Was very happy with the service provided by Oleksandra. She was on time for the pet visits and took care of both pets as asked. Would definitely recommend her to other pet owners.”


“Jessica was great with our kitties! We find it hard to trust people with our animals, but we absolutely trust her with our babies and will definitely book with her again in the future.”

“Wonderful! Reese is a great pet sitter. She touched base and kept me in the loop with my two cats and how they were doing each day with several pics. She even got my timid cat out to play each day and this is extraordinary. Can’t recommend enough!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I also have experience caring for cats, puppies, and senior pets, ensuring they feel loved and safe while their owners are away. My goal is to provide the best care tailored to your pet’s needs. I’m available evenings and weekends for pet care, including walks and in-home visits. My flexible schedule allows me to cater to your pet’s needs whenever you need support! I prioritize creating a safe and loving environment for all pets. Whether it’s in your home or during walks, your furry friend will receive attentive and caring supervision.
About: I have been pet sitting for 20 years, and have cared for pets of all kinds. I provide daily or occasional visits. I will feed/water per your instructions, provide playtime and brushing, monitor home security; altering lighting, change of blinds, and drapes; bring in packages and newspapers, rotate trash and recycling bins, and provide daily reports and pictures of your pet. I also will water plants and feed outside birds. With me, you are getting the full package of services! The only service I do not provide is walking dogs. I am a home maker and a volunteer at Lynchburg Centra Hospital. I also do pet-sitting when you need it, so my schedule is fairly flexible, and I take last minute jobs. I come to you! Your precious pet will stay at home where he or she is comfortable. I do not offer pet sitting in my home.
“Mary-Ashlynne was wonderful! She consistently gave us updates with photos with each visit, which gave me a peace of mind in leaving our little guy behind! I’d highly recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter!”

“Charles was above and beyond what we expected. We have an English Bulldog, and he whined when he left. It was obvious he really does love animals and treats them with respect. He sent us updates throughout our absence, and kept in close contact. 5-star rating from us and highly recommended.”

About: I have had pets since I was a little girl. Started out with cats, and then when I was 9 I got my first dog. Ever since then I’ve had 5 dogs total, and around 10 cats since I was little as well. I am well versed on how to take care of both and my dog Shiloh has helped me a lot in this :) I am a counselor most days of the week but I have time in the morning and evenings most days and weekends I’m usually free. I’m here for most holidays and throughout the summer as well! I am willing and able to walk the doggos, feed them and give them water, let them out for potty breaks, brush them and wash them if needed, and taking them to the dog park is an option as well. I know how to care for cats in giving them space when needed and attention when needed, feeding and giving them water, and any other tasks I’m asked to do, as well as picking up poop.

About: I have taken care of a variety of pet and animals since I was young. I myself have 2 dogs, 4 cats, and even a couple goats. I am very comfortable around a variety of sized animals and have experience not only with my own pets but also sitting for a variety of small and large dogs as well as cats. I am currently taking part time classes for the summer and will potentially be working part time during the week. With that being said, I will be available in the evenings and at various times throughout the day depending on my schedule that week! I am very flexible and would love to work with you to ensure your pets have the best experience. I have experience working with dogs from under a year to more senior in age, as well as puppies to large breeds. I am available to stop in for potty breaks throughout the day, do meals and such in the mornings and evenings, and stay over to house sit overnight if needed. Some other experience I have is working with additional pets such as cats, reptiles, and small critters.
About: Hello! I have 2 years of experience with dog walking + a handful of occasions where I have been trusted to pet-sit / board. I consider myself a loyal dog (and cat!) owner with a great work ethic. For the 2 years of dog walking, I walked a German Shepard — his name was Val. I walked Val consistently, in weather that ranged from 90-40 degrees Fahrenheit, up until his owner moved into a nursing home and Val was rehomed. I loved the big guy like he was my own dog - filling his water, scooping out his dog food, brushing him out, and playing fetch. I never missed a day I was scheduled unless there was a sudden change in plans (I was sick, she cancelled my walk, or an event took place where I couldn't arrive in time to walk him). Recently, my family has adopted our beloved goldendoodle puppy — Corduroy. I love him unconditionally, and so much of my free time is spent helping him get his energy out. I am a homeschooler, with all days free except for Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings. For walking purposes, I am available any time it is not dark outside and not preoccupied. Please note that my price for drop-ins, overnight care, and dog walking vary by location. The closer you are, the cheaper it will be. Below is how I determine payment: 0-5 miles from my home and/or workplace = $40 per night / drop in / walk Every additional 0.5 mile is $1 I make sure everything is taken care of. From basic expectations to leaving the house exactly how I found it — if not better. If it’s not my house or my pet, then I’m obligated to go by my clients rules.
About: My love for animals all started when I was eight and took care of a family friend's cats. Since then, I have gained experience with animals of all types and sizes. In addition to our family dog, I adopted a rabbit of my own who was my pride and joy for six years before succumbing to a hereditary health issue. I also have taken horse lessons, and I currently volunteer with a nearby animal shelter as a dog walker and socializer. I am comfortable with pets of all sizes and breeds, and I look forward to offering your pet the best care it can get. I am currently working remotely, so pet care will be sprinkled throughout my daily routine. Because my schedule is spaced out and very flexible, I will be able to visit your pet as many times as needed throughout the day (or even stay at the house while working if asked) to ensure that they are getting the quality care and attention they need. I work with my clients to give both them and their pets the best possible experience. Prior to hire, I am happy (and in fact, prefer) to have a free 15-30 minute consultation to familiarize myself to the pet and discuss any care specifics that the client may have. Because my care is individualized and will conform to the owner's wishes, I love to send pictures and videos throughout the day of the pet's activities and any extra-cute moments. I make it a habit to send short write-ups of the day and the pet's activities that day so that my clients feel as connected as possible to their pets.
“Absolutely amazing. She is such a lovely person and so nice to work with. You can tell she genuinely cares about the animals she is working with. I am going to look for her first if I ever need to book a sitter again :)”

About: I don’t just care for your pets, I strive to make them see me as part of the family! Also love to clean, so you know you will return to your house with it being just as clean as you left it. Ample training with young pups as well as caring for older animals. I work a job where I make my own hours, so I can fit whatever requirements into my schedule. No need to worry about long stretches without your loved one being checked on! Multiple walks are given each day (depending on their needs), with the option to run with them if they are high-energy dogs. All for the cuddles and playing inside for those that need either or both instead!
