Dog Walking In Gravel Hill

About: Call me Libby :) Dogs are my absolute passion in life! I was raised in a home with dogs and I’ve been a personal pet owner for over 10 years. I have experience raising and fostering puppies, seniors, and everything in between! I’ve had dogs in hospice care, with special needs, medical issues, etc. I have basic training skills and there are no stairs in my home in case your dog can’t use them. I have a large fenced in yard for play time or sunbathing in a safe and quiet neighborhood. They will be treated as if they are my own and loved on for every minute they are in my care! I run my own business so my work hours are flexible. I never leave the home for more than 4-5 hours at the absolute maximum. My 2 dogs and I go on evening walks everyday (after it’s cooled off in the summer time) and lots of outdoor time in between. My life revolves around my dogs needs so yours will fit in perfectly! I have a large fenced in yard and crates of different sizes if you need or want them to be crated. I have two friendly dogs so your baby will never be alone. My youngest dog will be a loving companion to your pet and make sure they feel like they’re at home. Whether that’s playing or napping, he will fall in love with them instantly!

“Sidney is so wonderful with our sweet pug! We trust her deeply and she is a great communicator and very flexible with our somewhat unpredictable schedules.”

About: I've never not had animals in my life! I spent my early years on a working farm and have always had a way with animals. Dogs love me (cats, too!) and I them ❤️ I have many years of experience in the veterinary field and know what to do in emergencies. I am currently working part time and my schedule is flexible. I do work away from home for 5-8 hours a day, split shift. I have dogs amd cats but can keep them separate, if necessary. My dogs are dog friendly, although my beagle mix is very bossy (typical!) Dogs will be in the house with my dogs, but they can be separated, if needed. I can crate, if the parents supply the crate. Dogs will be leash walked in the wide front yard but we can also go across the street to the dog park, too!

“Nicole is awesome! She is so sweet with my puppy, always on time, and very communicative.”

About: I’ve always been an animal person and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and reptiles, including my own ball python. I also have an Australian Shepherd who can be pretty anxious, so I’m used to being patient with nervous pets and helping them feel safe and comfortable. I’ve pet sat for both dogs and cats, including a cat with a more aggressive personality, so I understand the importance of respecting each animal’s boundaries and adapting to their individual needs. I love getting outside and taking walks, and I’m very familiar with the Richmond area. I also worked as a house cleaner for two years, so I’m comfortable being in clients’ homes and understand the importance of being respectful, trustworthy, and reliable. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe and happy while you’re away! I work about 20 hours a week as an esthetician and make my own schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. Because I set my own hours, I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I would love to fit pet care into my routine. I believe every pet is different, so I do my best to follow their normal routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while keeping up with their feeding schedule and any specific instructions you provide. For cats staying in my home, I’ll provide a calm, safe environment where they can settle in at their own pace. Having lived with multiple cats of various personalities, I understand that some cats are social while others prefer their space, and I’m happy to accommodate both! I will stay in regular communication, providing updates and photos so you always know how they’re doing!

About: I specialize in thoughtful, low-stress care for cats of all personalities—from social and playful to shy and selective. I take the time to understand each cat’s routine, preferences, and boundaries so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I have experience with multi-cat households, administering basic medications, and caring for senior cats who need a little extra patience and attention. I’m highly reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented, and I treat your home and your cat with the same level of care I would expect for my own. You can expect regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your cat is in calm, capable hands. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around visits, ensuring I’m always on time and able to provide consistent, attentive care. I’m intentional about not overbooking so each cat receives the time, attention, and calm presence they deserve. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or a longer visit, I prioritize being fully present and dependable. I focus on maintaining each cat’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. During visits, I handle feeding, fresh water, litter box care, and playtime or companionship based on your cat’s personality. I take the time to understand preferences — whether that’s interactive play, quiet company, or simply respecting their space. I’m attentive to small changes in behavior or appetite and will always communicate anything noteworthy. I also treat your home with care and respect, keeping things clean and consistent. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you always know how your cat is doing.

“Jeffrey provided me with the confident he would take care of Hailie well. Shared a brief description of his time with her and a picture as well. Communicated well and is very polite.”

About: I’ve been dog-sitting for about 5 years now. I’ve mainly taken care of small to medium sized dogs but I’m open to looking after larger dogs as well. I am very reliable and have a lot of energy to keep your dog entertained throughout the day. I love going for walks and and going to dog parks if allowed by the owner. I live in an apartment and it’s dog-friend and the apartment has a dog area where they can relieve themselves. I live in a studio apartment but there’s plenty of open space where your pup can lounge around. I’m very attentive of your dogs needs, so I stay on top of taking them out for walks and making sure their water bowl is kept full and following their feeding schedule. Also open to grooming and showering your dog, especially if they are staying overnight with me. If your pup is energetic and loves to play we will be a great match!!

“Kate is reliable and went above and beyond to care for my pup. Very grateful for her help”

About: Ive taken care of many breeds of dogs from various sizes and ages since I can remember. I currently own a puppy and am loving every part of it. I currently work part-time from 5am-9am so I have plenty of time during the rest of the day to take care of your pets whenever! I love taking my dogs on trails and around the neighborhood to make sure they get plenty of exercise and enrichment. This is important to ensure they stay happy!

About: Hi! I’m Cheyenne, a lifelong animal lover with hands-on professional experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I previously worked at a kennel-free dog boarding facility, where I helped care for multiple dogs at once in a safe, supervised environment. I’ve also worked as a full-time dog walker and pet sitter, providing daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, medication administration, and lots of attention and playtime. Animals have always been part of my life—I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and currently care for my own pets as well. Because of my background in both professional animal care and customer service, I understand how important communication and trust are when someone else is caring for your pet. What you can expect when your pet is with me: • Reliable, on-time care • Regular photo and text updates • Safe handling for dogs with different temperaments • Experience with multi-dog households • Lots of attention, enrichment, and play Whether your dog needs a walk while you’re at work, drop-in visits while you’re away, or extra love and attention, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’d love to meet you and your furry family member! I work a hybrid office jobs with very flexible hours. When I do go into the office, my office is dog friendly so I can bring a furry friend along if they enjoy the socialization! I care for pets in their own home so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. For drop-in visits and house sitting, I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, playtime, and any specific routines your pet is used to. During visits, I make sure pets get the attention, exercise, and enrichment they need, whether that’s a long walk, playtime, or just companionship. I also make sure basics like fresh water, clean feeding areas, and litter boxes are taken care of. For dog walks, I focus on safe handling, appropriate exercise for your dog’s energy level, and making sure they return home happy and settled. I always send updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and loved while keeping you informed and at ease.

“Shannon was huge help walking our dog Nora after my foot surgery. She was responsible, communicative, and took some cute pictures of Nora during their walks! We will definitely book again.”

About: When I was younger I would naturally gravitate towards animals, if I was at someone’s house you’d find me hanging out with the dog or cat. Because of this I’ve always been trusted to care for them and have gained experience from a young age with many different pets with ranging needs and personalities. I personally have a three year old cat named Linus, he is extremely loving, playful, and screams at me every morning for breakfast. I often care for different pets and really enjoy giving them the attention they deserve. I’m currently doing online classes and have a very flexible schedule with my part-time job. I am open to working with anyone’s schedule and can do overnights any night. I will care for your pet as I would mine, with all precautions and care taken to ensure the safety of your pet or pets. I appreciate detailed instructions and if I’m unsure of anything I will ask.

“Great communication and took good care of my girl Luna, I would happily recommend McKenzie”
