“Giselle is amazing!! We've tried multiple dog sitters and multiple apps and she by far exceeded our expectations! She is sweet and updates us on the pups. She cared for our old pup while he was having some problems and had no complaints from neighbors either. Definitely use her for your dog needs”
5. Amber C.
“Amber was great with our pup Cleo. Cleo is very sweet but she takes a bit of time opening up to someone new. Amber came in and immediately made her feel comfortable and by the end of night one Cleo and amber were cuddling up together on the couch. She gave medications perfectly and left our house very clean. I was able to relax on my vacation knowing Cleo was happy and in great hands! We will definitely be using her again.”

Both dogs have terrible separation anxiety, but they didn’t seem to miss a beat while we were gone. Would definitely recommend!”

I would definitely recommend Erin to anyone looking for a dependable and caring person to look after their pets while away!”
19. Mariah C.
About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember! I grew up with a mom who worked in the Richmond Animal Shelter & a house full of adopted animals. From my sisters spoiled Pibble baby to my neighbors sweet little Yorkie, I’ve been their go to sitter/walker to watch their babies because they know I’ll love on them like my own fur babies 💕 I love to do Meet & Greets prior to your baby’s walk/drop-in if feasible. Coko & I are available Saturdays & Sundays for Meet & Greets! I am a mom of 3 & we have a Shih-poo named Coko. My babies have all grown up around family dogs and understand to be gentle with fur babies. Our neighborhood is very dog friendly so I’m sure we’ll meet a friend or two on ours walks.
