About: We have been fur parents to multiple fur babies both individually and together. I am currently a bather, and for the past two years I have bathed (and nails) dogs off all sizes and ages. We treat each dog like our own, creating an environment that is warm and inviting for them to stay, play, and feel comfortable. While I do work during the week, my partner works from home, so we work together to make sure that the pets are cared for around the clock. Usually I do mornings before work, and he does during the day and evening while I work, and then we work together during the night. We have a fully fenced in yard for the safety of the pets, as well as multiple sized crates to fit any size dog. . We also have 2 friendly pets of our own. Multiple dogs have visited and stayed in our home, and our dogs get along great with others. For dogs who are not as social, we will provide individual play for them as well.
10. Sydney G.
“Sydney has been walking our two dogs for a couple of weeks now. They're big, high energy pups that clearly adore her visits. Her communication and reliability have been excellent.”
11. Chloe W.
“Chloe was a life saver! My fiancé and I came to Richmond to do engagement photos and we wanted our dog to be part of the fun. When I reached to Chloe to ask if she could help handle our pup, she was excited and eager to help. Right when we first met, Chloe offered to take Tor for a walk to get his wiggles out while my fiancé and I started our photo session.”
12. Bryn R.
“Bryn is my roommate, and she helps me take care of my cat constantly. If i’m not home, I don’t even have to ask her to feed him or help me clean his litter box. He absolutely loves her and cuddles with her all the time. In addition, I’ve seen how she took care of her family’s two great danes, Titan and Mackenzie. She can handle large dogs like a champ and is very intuitive to their needs.”

About: I am certain your pup will get the love and attention they need while they come stay with me! I have been dog sitting for about 7 years now. PLEASE READ Due to unexpected situations I have been put thru I am un able to watch dogs that have not been fixed. 8/10 times they have been too dominant and acted strange towards my dog who is fixed. I apologize in advance. I also would grateful appreciate if you have to cancel I know 1 week in advance so I can make other arrangements. I typically watch one dog at a time to ensure your pet is getting the love and attention they need. I understand things happen and plans get canceled but just letting me know as soon as possible will help allow me to make room on my calendar for another dog. I work from home so I will be around to keep an eye out and play with your dog(s). I have a fenced in yard as well with a big back yard for them to run around. I am also off 3 times a week so I can take your dog out for more adventures activities on those days. I have multiple rooms in the house to close off. We also have a medium sized crate if we must separate animals apart if need be. I will also be sure to send photos of your sweet fur baby
14. Alexandra E.
“Alex did a fantastic job with Oskar and really took care of his needs, even if they varied between days. She has a very good eye to what a dog needs, so that I always came back to a happy pup.”
15. Le'Yana O.
“Leyana would be a great sitter/walker for anyone's pet-kid! She has had animals all her life and enjoys them to the upmost. She's very reliable and hard working and most of all Le'Yana will love your pet-kid like her own!”
16. Alexander S.
“For a couple of years now, Alex has been staying at my home with my three-year-old mixed-breed cattle dog, Quico, when the humans in my family go on vacation. We leave Alex detailed instructions on how to provide Quico the best care, including food, medicine, and physical/mental fulfillment, since he is a high-energy dog, which they always follow. Quico also absolutely loves Alex, so I know Quico is in good hands when we go out of town -- emotionally and physically. Alex also is very responsive to my texts checking in on my beloved puppy dog, in addition to sending occasional adorable pictures and updates. Excellent care for my dog!”
17. Zoë C.
“Zoe did an amazing job taking care of my dog Walker. This was the first time ever leaving him with someone he doesn’t know so I was wondering how he would do. Zoe did a wonderful job with Walker. She was very communicative, sent pictures and updates several times a day and it was obvious Walker was well taken care of and happy. I recommend Zoe to anyone that needs an awesome pet caregiver, she’s awesome!!!”
18. Grace K.
“Grace was awesome - she helped take care of Josie and our plants! She updated us and kept us informed on how Josie was doing and it was nice to know she was being taken care of so well. Thanks Grace!”
19. Mikella M.
“I am very happy with all of Kevin’s walks this week!”

About: I am a firm believer that dogs are our best friends. Dogs deserve all the love and devotion they show us. I would love to drop by for a quick visit or a walk, or if you need care for longer my wife and our dog Belle would love to host your furry friend. Our backyard, quiet neighborhood, and proximity to the James River Park System is perfect for play time and longer walks. If you’re looking for a reliable friendly caretaker and or a fun place to stay for your pet, look no further. This is my full time commitment at the moment so pet care will be my top priority. My dog Belle gets all of the attention and won’t mind sharing. I have a fenced in yard at home that I share with my wife and our dog Belle. When it’s not too hot Belle gets a long walk every day, and can go in and out to the yard as she pleases. I will ensure I give the same level of care to your dog as I would my own both in and out of my home.
