About: I’ve been in a constant home of taking care of animals from a young age. I’ve trained over 6 dogs for basic training and have homed three cats. I’m versatile when it comes to new puppies as well as senior dogs. I’m a part time student so I’m mostly free in the evenings on weekdays and the weekends. For stop-bys and walks, I’m also free anytime before 9 am. In my own home I’ve got a lot of land for my own pets to roam within our land boundaries. Walking is a big part of giving pets time for exercise as well as calmer inside moments along with breakfast and dinner. Taking animals on rides to introduce them to different aspects of our world (exposure- therapy).
“Audrey was wonderful with my Rosebud! I booked with her a little bit last minute, but she was very flexible and even did a meet and greet with Rosebud prior to the walk day. Will definitely book with Audrey again!!”
About: Hi! My name is Alexis, I am 27 years old, and I have been around animals my entire life. Growing up I helped my dad with training his rabbit dogs and attending to their needs while he was at work or etc. I am born and raised in Amherst, VA. I own my own townhouse in Madison Heights. Although, the area is not fenced in there is a nice big yard for your fur-baby to get plenty of exercise and exposure to the sun and fresh air!! There is sidewalks in the neighborhood that makes it easy for taking walks. I am here to care for your fur-baby as you would. I will pet, feed, walk, play, brush attend to your fur-baby's needs. You and your fur-baby will be happy with my services. I do work 40 hours a week from home which allows me to have more time at home to attend to your fur-baby. Your dog/cat will be able to roam freely in the house unless otherwise requested. I do not work weekends, so my schedule is very open and flexible. I can easily crate your dog as needed. All dogs are walked on leashes when we go for walks. I respect your wishes in my home and your home.
“Casey was pawsome! She sent pictures of the dogs every time she came to walk them. She even brought dog petters with her. Our dogs were happy, walked and fed on the schedule we laid out. Very happy with the service ??”

I work part time at Subway and trying start my pet care business up more and I can watch your babies most of the days! I can crate your babies. I also can come to your house.

About: i took care of my dog (and cat) as soon as i was old enough to! i would walk my dog daily, feed both my cat and dog, let them out for potty breaks, and clean my cats litter box! my uncle also employed me multiple times to house sit and watch his two >75lb (young) black labs! I’m currently working part time, so my availability to care for your furry friend is super high!! I am at your beck and call!! It would be my absolute pleasure to visit your furry friends, especially since I’m a college kid, and I can’t currently have any pets of my own! I am very comfortable using a crate and walking a dog on a leash!! I’m not easily intimidated and love love love big dogs! I am able to do well with the resources i’m given!!
About: I have had a variety of pets since I was a little kid, and have always been very involved in their care- my special love is large dogs. I am experienced with training young dogs- it was my job as a teenager to take my young Bouvier to obedience school in the park- we graduated! My family has always been very pet oriented, and in recent years, I made sure my elderly mom had pets in our home- they complete the family. She has passed on to be with our fur babies who left before her, and now I’d love to host and care for your pet! I work based from home, about 35 hours a week. But, it’s very flexible work, as I do not clock in and out, and so am quite available throughout the day for play and walkies. I do leave the house 2-5 hours per day for work and errands, typically in the afternoon. This is also flexible , and can be adjusted as needed. I have a large, unfenced yard for quick leashed potty breaks-but I’d be doing regular walks around my quiet, semi-rural neighborhood.My next door neighbor has a big fenced yard and a tween boy who loves dogs, but doesn’t have one- so that is available if you like! If your dog likes to ride in the car, I’d love to take him to Sweet Briar College campus for big nature walks, with bonus cuddles from the adoring students. I primarily can offer leashed walks. I do have a large crate if it’s something your dog requires.
About: My love of animals started as a youngster and I started as a vet tech while in high school, I worked there throughout high school and then was a pet sitter for several years while living in Maryland in my early 20's. I will love your pet just as it was my own. I do own a small dog and she is great with other animals. I am a 46 year old stay at home mom who has had a pet all my life. Either cats, dogs, or horses I love them all. I can work with your schedule and would be able to keep your pet during the day while you are at work or even for an overnight stay. My schedule is flexible and I have all the time in the world to put towards your pet. I have a large yard that your fur babies can enjoy. I would keep them leashed at all times and can crate your pet if necessary. My son would be of great help and would give lots of extra love to your babies while you are away.
About: Since being on this app I have taken care of blind, deaf, and diabetic dogs from all ages. I have delivered shots and oral medications. I have a very flexible availability, especially during the summers. During my time off I spend most of my time outside exploring the great outdoors! I have a securely fenced-in yard, and my resident bernedoodle is eager to make new friends (please note: your dog must be dog-friendly and comfortable around people). As someone who loves to jog and hike in nature, I can promise an enriching environment. Whether they require special care or simply need a fun adventure, I'm here to accommodate your requests. I look forwards to providing your pet with a fun and memorable stay!
About: I have two small dogs who are my world. I love all types of pets, but can make room in my schedule and heart to take care of your dogs and cats. I will board dogs, but can only stop in and check on your cats. I am currently retired and only work some part-time jobs. I am pretty flexible and will work with families to take care of your precious pets. I have a large farm and home and will crate your dogs as needed. They will love the open space for walks and play. I will keep all pets separated for a more stress-free experience.
About: I just started doing this because my dog was attacked while I was on vacation and I never want anyone to feel that pain in loosing their best friend like I did. My pup and I get up around 7:30 and he goes out and gets breakfast and water and we walk around the property… sometimes we go to the park in the afternoon and find a trail to walk… and then he eats again at 5:30/6 depending on when I get home from errands after lunch… not to mention the occasional game of fetch while I’m home… also I’d need to know of any allergies or meds you give your dogs and the types of foods treats and games they like… each dog has their own personalities so it’s always hard to tell It depends on the owner.. if ur cool with me being at ur house or if the dogs would come to my place … I do have a yard but it’s not fenced so if the dogs go out they are put on a tie out and I don’t leave them out alone (unless it’s my pup but he’s trained) …. A typical day would also depend on what the dogs schedule is. Dogs are creatures of routine so taking them out of that routine would mess with theor confidence while their owner is away so I’d prefer to know more about the daily routines you have and work my day around that the best I can…
About: i’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since i was younger. my family, friends, neighbors, old school teachers all have had me watch and bathe their dogs for them I am free any day of the week ! So I’ll be very glad to help anyone out with what they need. It brings me joy. i am always willing to do what is needed, or what i am told. i will gladly play with your animals. i love too walk around the neighborhood
About: Hello! I have been trusted by friends and family to care for their animal babies, and homes, year after year! I have a love for them and their dogs and take responsibility seriously. It’s been an honor to hear the pet owners are “stress-free knowing their pets and house are in good care.” I prefer to spend most of the day with dogs and match their schedule to make them feel loved and safe. I work from home and can be flexible to meet the needs of your pets! Playing, and getting outside on nice days are a must! Some evenings I have weekly activities, but I always prioritize the pups and make sure they are cared for and happy first! I prefer to meet the pets at their own home where I feel they are most comfortable with their mom/dad away. I am open to boarding, however I do not have a yard or ideal outdoor or indoor area to host pets. My typical care has included basic pet needs- feeding, walking, playing, keeping them company and basic household care such as- watering plants, getting mail, etc.
About: With prior experience in the veterinary related field and a Furmom to four, I have worked with a variety of animals. I am a current pet parent to two dogs, two cats and a thriving saltwater ecosystem. I love animals! In fact, I’ve lived with them my entire life. I have cared for creatures big and small from the domestic variety to exotics such as fish, reptiles and birds. I have also cared and assisted for sick, injured, post-operative animals, personally and professionally. My career allows for a flexible schedule, which means I can accept jobs on short notice if available! Appointments are part of my daily life, so you can rest easy knowing your pet will be cared for at the designated times and/or dates. I provide in-home service to clients which includes feedings, walks and certain extended services on a case by case basis. This would include administering prescribed medications, depending on the pet and tolerance level. Tailored to your pet's routine, I ensure they receive the attention and care they deserve, creating an stress-free experience for both you and your furry friend!

Susannah D.
“Susannah is my niece and has a warm and special heart for animals. I have two labs, Sammy (the sweet calm one) and Tiffany (the sweet crazy one). She loves both of them and every time we needed someone to dog sit, Susannah was the first person we would ask. My dogs love her so much and always are very excited to she her. She takes exquisite care of them and not only feeds them and takes care of them, but spends time with them and shows them love. I highly recommend her for any job that requires taking care of animals.”
Eman W.Star Sitter
“Awesome caretaker! My doggie had a great time ☺️”
Suzanne Z.
“I have known Suzanne since we were freshmen at Sweet Briar College in 1987, and while we did not share any academic classes we did ride horses together. Suzanne had brought her horse, Nugget, with her to college, and it was apparent right away that she loved, respected, and admired Nugget deeply. We kept in touch after college, so I got to hear about Nugget's last years, which Suzanne made sure were happy, comfortable ones. She cared for him like a beloved family member. When Suzanne got a dog, I saw the same spirit of deep caring I had witnessed with her horse. She obviously takes no short cuts, ever, in caring for an animal in her charge. Even the tiny frogs living in her backyard have received her tender loving care. I would feel completely comfortable -- and lucky -- to have Suzanne care for my dogs, and in fact I have left my human children with her for a long weekend, which should prove how much a trust her!”
Brandy P.
“Brandy absolutely loves and adores animals she’s truly kind and patient with any animal that crosses paths with her. She has a wonderful little dog marley whom she considers her second child and takes her with her everywhere she goes.”
Adelena D.
“Adelena has taken care of my pets when I'm away since she was 15. I have a dog, Daisy, that loves when Lena stays over, and a special needs cat, Poofins, that needs medicine 3 times a day. Lena has always come through, and has taken great care of both of them. I know I can always rely on her. If you need dogwalking or pet care of any kind, Lena is trustworthy and kind to animals, and absolutely respectful of my home.”

Alizabeth A.
“Ever since I have known Ali, she has had a dog. While she has never pet sat for me (I do not own any pets - I have kids instead) I have been around her and her dogs. She has been a great pet mom and takes the time to work with and train the dogs in her care with patience and attentive care. Due to her love for her own dog(s) I feel like she would be a great sitter for another human's fur babies.”

Leah B.
“Leah is an amazing pet sitter and loves our Kiki and two puppers like her own. She not only does what is asked, she goes above and beyond to make our pets feel like they are also on vacation. She is super reliable and we knew we could count on her. Our most recent trip out of the country, she stayed at our place with the pets but also went above and beyond and would take them into the office or wherever she could whenever she could. We are forever grateful for her heart and her service to our pets and humans. She is a stellar animal companion and friend to all!”
Brielle R.
“Brielle is one of the most animal passionate people that I know. She taught me a special love and care for animals and she has great insight into your animals’ emotions and well being. It’s more than just feeding and walking, there is a special connection with your pet that will make hiring Brielle a no-brainer.”
