Dog Walkers in Fulks Run, VA

About: Hello my name is Natasha (Tasha). I have grown up with dogs and love learning new things about dogs. When I was younger my parents constantly bought me books about dogs (the only way they could get me to read). Your dog’s stay will be customized to their needs. If they love to play nonstop, go on long walks, sleep on the couch, sunbathing, or all the belly rubs in the world, that will be what your dog gets under my care. I love to make homemade dog treats and try new recipes. I am comfortable administering medicine (pill form) if it is necessary. I currently have dogs of my own, so if your dog loves playing with other dogs I have the perfect playmates for them!

About: I’ve had pets basically my whole life. Dogs, a couple cats, ferrets. I’m dependable and trustworthy and I will treat them as if they were mine. I am and have been a stay at home mom for almost 15 years, and my schedule is really flexible. I look forward to working with you! I will make sure your fur baby is comfortable. We will play, do walks, whatever makes them happy. I am looking forward to meeting them!

“Chris is great! She really cares about the animals that she is caring for. She came to walk my dog Samson, and they had so much fun! We will definitely be booking her again!”

About: I have taken care of and been around animals since I was a child. I had worked in Dog Daycares, walking dogs, and being a sitter for all kinds of animals. I can be gentle or authoritative with your pet while giving them love and kindness. My life is taking care of animals and loving them. I have plenty of free time to spend with your pets for walks, playtime, and so much more! I am quite strong to be able to hold tightly onto a leash if your animal is leash reactive. I am well versed in dog body language and can handle a hyperactive animal or a calm and cuddly baby.

About: Lived with a variety of pets all my life, ranging from cats and dogs, to hamsters and turtles. Often pet sat for friends, neighbors, and family. Currently open full time most weeks as long as I am given a few days notice! All 7 week days available from morning to night A large fenced backyard in the suburbs. 2 friendly dogs, 1 medium sized, 1 small, as well as 2 kitties who will probably avoid yout pets but are still very friendly!

About: I've always dog sitted, walked, cared for dogs since a very young age, The last few years dogs ive mentored have won a few dog shows, have worked in shelters as well with animals with anxiety and many health problems. Animals are our best friends & they deserve care & empathy. I love the outdoors hiking and running so I keep the dogs active and healthy. I am also a tutor so being Remote gives me time for doggies:) Always a full plate of food, with water. Along with walks I like pet to get some exercise, & have play time even when we're inside. I also have a long relaxing walking path and lake right in my neighborhood. All dogs absolutely love the view during walks!

“Natalie was a natural walking with my pup, Rosie. She asked meaningful questions about her care (as we are planning on rebooking for house sitting) and was warm and loving toward my dog, giving her praise, treats, and smiles. Rosie was so pleased with our walk, that she started following Natalie to her car as if she was sad to see her go! We will be booking with Natalie again and are very confident in her professionalism and communication. Thanks, Natalie!”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life. There isn't a time I can remember not having dogs around my entire childhood. So, I went into a dog-centered field. I am certified as dog obedience trainer, and have worked with my parents senior Westie. I am currently staying at home, so I have a lot of time. My husband works five days a week, and I would love to have a job. Usually Monday through Thursday are good, nine to three. I am hoping to eventually be able to board dogs overnight. I love dogs. They are usually all so friendly once they know you, and I enjoy loving on them. You can rest assured I will do everything, within reason, that I can do to keep a dog safe and healthy.

About: I have always had dogs in my life and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and needs. For over a year I have volunteered at an animal shelter where I regularly walk, spend time with, and care for dogs with a variety of behaviors and energy levels. I have also dog sat multiple times, both by welcoming dogs into my home and caring for pets in their own homes. As a graduate student, I have developed strong responsibility, communication, and time-management skills, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. As a graduate student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to pet care. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, whether that means walks, playtime, drop-in visits, or keeping pets company. I make it a priority to provide reliable care and make sure pets receive attention, exercise, and consistency in their routine. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, and I always strive to make them feel comfortable and secure. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and behaviors through both pet sitting and volunteering at an animal shelter. I carefully follow owners’ instructions, maintain a safe environment, and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care while keeping owners updated along the way.

About: I have grown up around animals but also have watched others animals since I was at least 12. I work at an equestrian barn and primarily petsit dogs and cats. I greatly enjoy my time with the animals. Ask for more details! Petsitting fits into my weekly routine so well! Whether it’s popping in for a walk or feed time, boarding, etc., I am dedicated. I have a lot of free time in the summer and during the school year (I’m a teacher), I also find time before and after school to recharge and take care of animals. In my home, I make sure the client and pet are comfortable with the arrangement and altar anything needed within reason. In a client’s home, I will provide care as requested specifically. This will vary, depending on the service.

About: I have taken care of a a lot of dogs and pets. I can do full weeks or just weekends. Also free to walk dogs. I have an open schedule so it’s not an issue. I can stay over night or stop by whenever. My shifts aren’t long either. I have a dog at home that is very friendly and I have grown up with dogs and other animals. I give dogs as much attention as they like.

About: I have always loved being around animals of all kinds; from cats to dogs, geckos, or sheep. I am tolerant and non-judgmental of any living environment, and I have the same standards of care for myself, as I do for the furry/scaly friends I am responsible for. I have cared for elderly dogs and have experience in aiding with mobility and medication. I enjoy playing, exploring, and resting with animals. I am currently available for any time or day of the week, as I am in-between jobs. All commitments I currently have can be worked in around your needs for a sitter. My home is not very suitable for housing pets, which is a large part of the reason I would like to help you with yours!

“Thank you for accepting my last minute request!”

About: Entrusted with numerous pet care opportunity through acquaintances, friends and family. No preference on dogs or cats, I can catch on quick to whatever they task may be for the need of your pet. I’m currently working part time, so my schedule is pretty open at your disposal. I don’t mind driving, so reasonable distance isn’t an issue for checks up, walks or overnight stay if need be. I’m a very detail oriented person who’s been hired sporadically since being in the 540 area coming to school at JMU in 2015, and returning as a graduate assistant coach in last year. I’m very familiar with the area, so that will never really be an issue for me. I will be a great communicator understanding the situation and will make sure you feel great about the situation before, during and after.

“Moriah was so great for Walt! Not only did she help fill a need for us with a last minute cancellation, she was so responsive and great with our dog. She gave great feedback after every walk and was so kind. I would definitely hire again and recommend to friends!”
