About: I am a retired business owner who loves animals, I am fairly new to Virginia, relocated from New York. I have 4 grand puppies that I love spending time with and I would love to help with your precious pet!! I am currently retired and I have plenty of time to visit or walk your fur babies. I love animals and will enjoy getting to know them. I am available to visit, feed or walk your fur baby. I will make sure that they are always safe by using a leash when walking them and making sure they cannot escape from your home.

About: Every family has unique needs, and I’m happy to schedule a phone call consultation to create a care plan that fits your budget! I’ve been caring for cats and dogs of all ages since childhood—I come from a pet-loving family. For over five years, I’ve provided professional pet sitting in my area through Rover. Before that, I supported friends and family with their pet care needs. These years of experience have allowed me to work with a wide variety of breeds, ages, energy levels, and routines. I am currently a full-time graduate student and will be able to dedicate as much time as you'd like to your pets. I'm available on an as-needed basis and will make your pets my first priority.

About: As someone who was raised on a fully functioning farm, animal husbandry has been a part of my daily routine since I could walk! I have experience with almost every domestic animal under the sun, but dogs and cats have always been very personal to me. I worked at doggie daycares/boarding facilities for 3 years, and am an assistant at a competitive showing kennel. I attended CATCH canine trainers academy as well. I would love to extend my love for pets to you and your fur family by caring for them as I would my own. Caring for pets is my full time job! I am highly flexible and usually able to accommodate whatever you and your furbabies need. When house sitting, I will need to leave at least once a day to check in at my house, but otherwise your pets have my full attention. I want your pets to be safe and happy. I am willing to take on whatever routine you have established to make your time away as easy on your pets as possible. Safety and fun are my top priorities!

About: I have always loved being around animals, I started walking dogs when I was 11 around my neighborhood and I have been pet sitting since I was 14 so I’ve had a lot of experience pet sitting/walking dogs! I currently walk dogs Monday through Friday but I am always looking for more🙌🏻 I do online college so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I would be happy to help anytime, I only need a little heads up!🫶🏻 I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own home. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding times, walks, or playtime—to keep them happy and relaxed. I treat every pet and home with respect, keeping everything clean and secure. I also love sending picture updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands while you’re away! 😊

About: Hello! I have 2 years of experience with dog walking + a handful of occasions where I have been trusted to pet-sit / board. I consider myself a loyal dog (and cat!) owner with a great work ethic. For the 2 years of dog walking, I walked a German Shepard — his name was Val. I walked Val consistently, in weather that ranged from 90-40 degrees Fahrenheit, up until his owner moved into a nursing home and Val was rehomed. I loved the big guy like he was my own dog - filling his water, scooping out his dog food, brushing him out, and playing fetch. I never missed a day I was scheduled unless there was a sudden change in plans (I was sick, she cancelled my walk, or an event took place where I couldn't arrive in time to walk him). Recently, my family has adopted our beloved goldendoodle puppy — Corduroy. I love him unconditionally, and so much of my free time is spent helping him get his energy out. I am a homeschooler, with all days free except for Monday and Wednesday evenings. And Sunday mornings. I'm available any time it is not dark outside and not preoccupied. I make sure everything is taken care of. From basic expectations to leaving the house exactly how I found it — if not better. If it’s not my house or my pet, then I’m obligated to go by my clients rules.

About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats for 15 years, walking dogs, changing cat litter, feeding pets, playing with pets. I have a lot of experience with new/young pets and old pets, catering to that animals specific needs. I'm currently working part-time right now and my hours at that job of flexible to move around to meet your needs. I live in an apartment so I can't board any animals but I am available any day of the week to come to your house and pet sit. Services include feeding, walking, playing, snuggling, litter change, and any other things you may need for your house to be taken care of. I treat your dog or cat like I would my own. Make sure they are provided for and feel safe within their own home. I am on top of walks and potty breaks so your pet will never feel like they don't know where their care is coming from.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I also have experience caring for cats, puppies, and senior pets, ensuring they feel loved and safe while their owners are away. My goal is to provide the best care tailored to your pet’s needs. I’m available evenings and weekends for pet care, including walks and in-home visits. My flexible schedule allows me to cater to your pet’s needs whenever you need support! I prioritize creating a safe and loving environment for all pets. Whether it’s in your home or during walks, your furry friend will receive attentive and caring supervision.

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).

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I’ve grown up with — and cared for — pets of all shapes and sizes, from dogs and cats to fish, birds, horses, rodents, and even reptiles. No matter who your furry (or scaly!) family member is, I’m excited to give them the same love and attention I give my own. Pet care is already a natural part of my day. I take care of my cat every morning and evening—making sure she has fresh water, the right amount of food, a clean litter box, and plenty of playtime. Since I’m already in a daily rhythm of caring for pets, adding walks or drop-ins fits easily and naturally into my routine. At home, my kitten is always the first one to greet me at the door, so I make sure she gets attention and reassurance right away. I keep her routine consistent—fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and lots of playtime and affection. When caring for a client’s pets, I’m very mindful of their established routines. I follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions exactly as given. I want every pet to feel comfortable and secure, so I do my best to maintain the rhythm they’re used to. Whether it’s my home or yours, my priority is making sure pets feel safe, understood, and well cared for.

About: NOTE: I am not currently taking any bookings in my own home! I’ve taken care of others animals since I was about 8 years old, but personally I have had animals ever since I was born. I have always had animals in my family and couldn’t imagine not having animals around! I can always find a way to accommodate yours and your pets needs while you away! You can rest assured that your fur babies will be well taken care of! I firmly believe pets are just as much as family as everyone else is, so you can be certain your babies will be so loved.

“Charles is great with our Stanley who can be a real handful! We are very thankful for Stanley getting an extra walk during the week. Highly recommend.”

About: I have had pets since I was a little girl. Started out with cats, and then when I was 9 I got my first dog. Ever since then I’ve had 5 dogs total, and around 10 cats since I was little as well. I am well versed on how to take care of both and my dog Shiloh has helped me a lot in this :) I am out of work for the most part right now so I have a lot of free time and would love to house sit with your pets or visit them as often as I can :) I am willing and able to walk the doggos, feed them and give them water, let them out for potty breaks, brush them and wash them if needed, and taking them to the dog park is an option as well. I know how to care for cats in giving them space when needed and attention when needed, feeding and giving them water, and any other tasks I’m asked to do, as well as picking up poop.
