I had a great experience with Jennifer taking my dog out for walks twice a day while I was out of town. I highly recommend her for your pets.

Franky has been walking my 57 lb, 12 year old boxer/lab mix for a week now and I’m very pleased. He asked good questions at our meet n greet before the first walk and is taking excellent care of my girl. He’s super nice and clearly loves dogs and knows how to treat them well. 5 stars.

About: I've had a dog in my home my entire life, and am always the one my friends/family turn to if they need someone to look after their pets. I have also fostered multiple dogs with leash reactivity, and have had some 1-1 work with an R+ (positive reinforcement) trainer to ensure pups can have the best experience out and about in the world while still getting their sniffs and exercise in. I occasionally run outside so I can offer to run with your pup(s) 1-2 times a week if you'd like, and I live 5 minutes away from Baron Cameron park if you like for them to play with other pups during the day at a dog park as well. Or of course we can just snuggle most of the day while I work from home. Well either way there will be lots of snuggles and pets... My last dog passed away in 2025 after a year long battle with cancer, so I have no problem giving medicine and making sure we stay on a strict schedule with food/medicine if that is what your dog needs. I look forward to becoming your pup's new best friend! I work part-time from home. I'm available for day-sitting while you're at work or overnight boarding when you're out of town. I'm typically up by 7:30, have a fenced in backyard, go on walks/runs throughout the day and love going to the dog park if your pup enjoys it! I have a 6 foot fence in my backyard that your pup can play around in. Take 2-3 x 25 minute walks around the neighborhood throughout the day and can occasionally go for 30-60 minute jogs if your pup enjoys more exercise (1-2/week)

Carole is amazing with my dog. She worked to get my front door open and eventually was able to get in through the garage to get my boy out! She stayed a bit extra to ensure he got his bathroom and walk break in. Thanks!

Wonderful job walking my two senior pups while I was away on a work trip. She did hour long walks with them on a 2 mile out and back walk. My dogs are always excited to see Claire. She has great energy and is very reliable.

About: All my life I have been surrounded by animals. Now me and my husband live with four cats and our dog, which we love and care for. From trimming nails to baths to play time, I really do enjoy every moment spent with them. I take care of pets on a daily basis, with whatever I can do to help make the owners life easier. I have an open availability and a very flexible schedule! I am able to adjust to any environment with a small tour. I am also able to adjust my home accordingly to the needs of the fur baby.

About: I’ve taken care of the family corgi, Lucky, for 12 years now and have petsit for neighbor’s dogs, cats, and bunnies in the past. In addition to petsitting, throughout high school I was involved in a 4-H dog training club, where Lucky and I trained together, learning tricks and agility from certified trainers and earning AKC trick titles certifications. We got a Lucky as a puppy, so I have experience with younger dogs as well. I just graduated from JMU and don’t start my first job until the end of July, so my schedule is pretty open aside from a family vacation in June. I’m unavailable on Sunday mornings (8:30am-12pm) but otherwise have plenty of free time during the rest of the week and can do visits or walking after 12:30pm on Sundays. I’m happy to accommodate whatever needs you and your pet have for care in your home. In the past, I’ve made multiple visits a day to owners homes to feed, walk, play with, and generally just check on and spend time with the animals. I have experience walking, feeding, playing indoors and outdoors, and cleaning up after dogs. I’m unable to board dogs at my house because of my own dog, but am definitely willing to care for them in their own home.

About: I’ve had animals like dogs and reptiles my whole life. Neighbors and friends have always asked me to help when their animals needed to be taken care of. Taking care of pets can easily fit into my daily schedule. I have two dogs of my own so taking care of a couple extra would be no issue! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs. I can care for dogs both at my house and/or the house of a client. My house backs up to a park so I have easy access to a place to walk and play with animals!

Skyler is a great dog caretaker! She brings great energy to her job and the dogs love her positive nature. I have 2 dogs and Skyler is able to walk them both and understands their needs. She pays attention to the care instructions to make sure she is providing the optimal experience. She is a strong communicator being both responsive to requests and proactively sharing pictures and status along the way.

Skylar leaves wonderful messages and takes great photos each time he takes my older dog for a walk. He always makes sure there is a light left on for her if dark, that she has fresh water, and most importantly that she enjoys her walk! I am so grateful and will be using his services again.

About: Hi! I love, love, love dogs and enjoy quality time with them in any way, especially walking on trails out on a nature path. My family dog Jennie is a beagle, shephard, hound mix who has lots of puppy energy but also comes with high anxiety due to her shelter past. I have cared for family dogs since I was 6 and have experience house sitting, walking, bathing and driving dogs around for appointments. I am a rising college junior home with a lot of time on my hands until mid June to help out in any way you need all days of the week and weekends. I have a ton of availability and flexibility to help out with any dog or cat needs of yours! Currently, I am flexible all times of days and weekends but will transition into afternoon/night care only starting June 15th I am used to caring for energetic as well as calm/mellow pets and will make sure to devote my attention while I am present to pet, play, walk, or run with your dog. I live in a safe and quiet neighborhood and also have a fenced in backyard to play with your dog if a designated place to go is needed!
