About: As a passionate animal advocate, I've had the privilege of serving as the Foster Care Coordinator at the Gloucester-Mathews Humane Society for 1 year, while also volunteering with shelters throughout my adult life. Additionally, I'm a Certified Veterinarian Assistant, and my life's journey has been enriched by sharing it with diverse animals, from beloved domestic pets like dogs and cats, to hospice and senior animals. I'm committed to providing your cherished pets with the same love, care, and compassion that I've devoted to my own. I am thrilled to be available Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm. If you have a special request for different hours, I invite you to share your needs and I will eagerly discuss and arrange a solution that works for you. I will nurture your fur babies with the same love and devotion I would shower upon my own precious little ones. With my extensive shelter experience, I have been blessed to work with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, temperaments and life stages. I have had the joy of caring for rambunctious puppies and the privilege of providing comfort to senior dogs and cats.

About: Trustworthy and Caring Dog Sitter with Over a Decade of Personal Dog Ownership Experience. Thank you for considering me as your dog sitter. I look forward to providing a safe and trustworthy environment for your dog, filled with love, care, and endless belly rubs. I currently work outside the home full-time M-F with a lunch break at 1200 where I come home and walk my 12 year old dog. I have a fenced yard, a 12 year old Yorkie, and plenty of places for your pup to explore on walks. Your pup will be cared for as a member of the family.

“We had an amazing experience with our dog sitter! She stepped in last minute for a drop-in appointment, and we couldn’t be more grateful. She took great care of our dogs, giving them plenty of attention and even playing a game of catch to make sure they got some exercise and fun. It was clear she genuinely cares about animals, and our dogs were happy and well-cared for when we got home. Highly recommend her services—she was a lifesaver!”


About: I’ve always loved animals, I have a 3 year old Australian Shepherd and he is my whole world. I will treat your fur baby with the love, care, and attention that I show my own fur baby. When I’m watching your pet, they will be safe, happy, and have the best time! I currently work full time, but I am available late evenings on week days and all day on most weekends. I am always happy to be flexible with my schedule. I live in an apartment so my dog gets plenty of walks, outdoor time, mental, and physical stimulation throughout the day. I provide a calming, safe environment in my home for my pup, and I bring that same calm and caring energy to every animal I meet.

About: I adopted a dog, she was 5 months old and I took great care of her over 15 years. I have a fur niece and nephew that I have baby set in my home before. I am flexible at this time. At this time I am available for consideration Monday-Sunday. I am available for dog care, but would like for the dog to be leash trained not to pull or have a lead or harness to prevent pulling. I follow the parent's schedule. When watching my fur niece and nephew I follow the schedule their parents give me. I feed and walk as instructed.

“The word “fantastic” isn’t high enough praise for Avery. She took care of our lab while we were out of town for a family trip, and was hit with a pup with nervous stomach issues, as well as an ill-timed dishwasher leak in our kitchen. She took care of each situation with grace and amazing communication, and I honestly don’t know what we would have done without her help. We highly recommend her, and will definitely ask her to watch Chloe again.”


About: I've loved animals since I was a kid and have cared for many throughout my life! I was tasked with raising my family dog since she was a puppy when I was in high school, and I helped my college roommate with her puppy! I have walked/boarded many dogs and cats since moving to Virginia! Being in the military, my coworkers travel a lot so I have become the workplace's go-to "pet auntie." I genuinely love to spoil pets and providing them with a safe and homey environment while their loved ones are out! I have a fairly flexible work schedule so I can come back to my home or to your home to take care of your pet! Early morning, lunch, and evenings are especially free, so I can work around that depending on your needs. I do not own pets, so they will be here as a single child in the case they are boarded! Crates, food, litter boxes, etc will need to be provided as I don't own those things. I have access to many parks around my neighborhood, so walkability is not an issue!

About: I am an animal lover & have taken care of dogs, cats, fish, lizards, birds, bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters, pigs, goats, cows, & horses. I have had the honor & privilege of having several 4 legged family members to love & care for in my lifetime but currently do not have any of my own so I would be grateful for the opportunity to love and care for your animals when you are away. I work full-time sometimes from home so I will do my best to accommodate my clients & fur-babies schedules & needs if possible for the days requested. I am interested in walking dogs for clients, follow agreed-upon routes, schedules & dispose of waste. I will pay attention to details and be sure they have food and water and dispose of their waste. I will gladly provide companionship & care in your absence. I am a responsible & reliable individual that you can trust for taking care of your fur-babies & even to the veterinarian in the event of an emergency. I am a non-smoker, non-vaper, non-drinker & non-drug user.

About: Hi my name is Tanisha. I am a military nurse. I have taken care of dogs most of my adult life. I recently had my dog pass due to medical conditions. She had been with me since 2010. Since her death I’ve decided to open my home to taking care of others pets because I’ve experienced the struggle with finding quality pet care. You can count on me to treat your pet like my own. I have a 12 year old son, that also love animals, so between the two of us your pet will get plenty of love and attention. Your pet will be allowed to go anywhere in the house they choose, but I do not allow them on the furniture. Your pet will sleep inside of the home.

About: I have 8 years of experience working with and caring for cats and dogs! I have no problem taking care of pets of any size or temperament! I even have some experience caring for small animals like rabbits and ferrets! I love all animals and I have been around them my whole life. I also have knowledge in medical care for dogs like giving medications and how to handle emergency situations, as well as minor things like nail trims and even bathing! I will treat your fur baby as if they were my own! My availability will always be updated on my profile! - my day to day always involves one to two long walks a day with my dog. I have tons of land for your fur baby to runaround! I also have a dog of my own who is super friendly and I’m sure she wouldn’t mind having someone to play with from time to time!

Shelley Q.
“My name is Glenn. For 8 years, I lived in my sailboat, with my furbaby, Kona. He is so very special to me. He turned 15 years old, this year. He rides with me on my Harley Davidson motorcycle. He was born the same day, my dad passed away. He acts exactly like my dad. My best friend. A couple of years ago, I had to leave Kona with Shelley. Shelley was the manager of the marina where I and Kona were moored. If Kona wasn't on the boat, he was with Shelley. I had no doubt. She loved and cared for Kona with the same adoration I have.I was buying my house in France and I couldn't take Kona with me. I was to be gone for 3 months. It was without reservation, when I asked Shelley to take care of my furbaby for the extended period. Kona, Shelley and I were secure with the arrangement. When I returned to get Kona, he had been groomed, washed, and catapulted into my arms like a fresh puppy. She had maintained the strict diet, exercise and disciplines I had in place. It was without a doubt, the best arrangement I could ever hoped for. If you want the very best, you should go with Shelley and your furbaby will have the best of arrangements. Glenn”
