About: I have always had a dog since I was 8. I have had a disabled dog who could not walk or have control of his bladder, and now I have a 120 lb dog who has all the energy in the world. I have worked in an animal shelter for 2 years and have worked with all kinds of breeds and levels of dogs. I love spending time with dogs and connect with them in a special way. I am a student at James Madison University and am a second semester senior. I am very free and flexible with my schedule especially during the weekdays. On some days I don’t have classes till late afternoon so am free all morning and then later after them. I live in a clean and organized house where there is no potential for dogs to get into things. I have a small yard but not fenced in, but have a dog park right next to my apartment that I would love to use.

“Jenesis was amazing! She made sure to take extra care of my pup and make her feel at ease while I was away. She was flexible with my late evening pick up time and even watched my dog longer than I had originally asked/needed her to. Please book with her if you need a sitter!!”

“We truly appreciate Brandy! We booked very last minute with brandy. Being on vacation we brought our epileptic pup and he wasn’t coping well in a new place being alone. So we downloaded this app for the first time and booked with her while we went out. She responded when I checked on him, and sent me pictures of him while he was with her. We are even booked an extra day with her while we were here because he did so well in her care! Thank you Brandy !!”

About: I’m a genuine dog lover who enjoys caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether you’re busy, traveling, or just need an extra hand, I’m happy to help give your dog the love and attention they deserve. Dogs have always had a special place in my heart. I truly enjoy spending time with them, getting to know their personalities, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to help others feel at ease knowing their furry family member is in caring hands. I work at home so I do 24/7 care. My world is surrounded with dogs, I just love them so I work with them and everyday it's a blast. I have a wonderful 2 acre backyard that's fenced for my fuzzy guests to stretch their legs and enjoy a park all to themselves. I spend my hours outside working on little projects so your baby's will get to just relax or play to their heart's content and then after a long day I like to end it with cuddles and movie on the couch.

About: I have volunteered at my local veterinarian for 6 years. That experience allowed me to be around all kinds of pets and I learned different ways to take care for them. I have my own dog, who I have had for 7 years. While growing up I had two Rottweilers and I adored them. I have always been around my family and friends’ pets. I am a recent college graduate but I am not currently working, so I have the whole entire day to play with your fur babies! I have a golf course behind where I live, which is where I like to walk dogs. I am not currently allowing pets to stay overnight.

“Joanna was extremely accommodating for our last minute request. She was very friendly and communicated with us well. It seems like Dilly had a blast and was exhausted from a day of playing! We’re very thankful and appreciative, and would gladly recommend her to everyone! Thank you for taking care of Dilly for the day! We’ll be back!”

“Nicholas was great. The backyard and Shanti were perfect for Rosie. First visit for Rosie and she was not stressed at all. Would definitely recommend and will book again.”

About: I've had the privilege of working with a diverse range of puppers and needs. From handling dogs with aggression or reactivity issues, to nurturing the boundless energy of puppies through structured play and training, to compassionate care for senior dogs, understanding their unique health concerns and ensuring they remain comfortable and active. Managing multiple dogs simultaneously has taught me the importance of balance, fairness, and individual attention in a group setting. Above all, I am committed to fostering a safe, fun and enriching environment for every dog in my care. I am available for dog walking during weekdays throughout the day, with flexible hours to accommodate various schedules. On Saturdays, my availability is limited, but with advance notice I can make arrangements for morning and sometimes early afternoon walks. Sundays typically have open availability. I'm dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing environment for dogs in my care, and when needed, utilize crates and gates thoughtfully to give them cozy retreats or designated play areas. With a fenced backyard, there's plenty of room for them to romp and explore under my watchful eye. It's all about making sure each dog gets the love, exercise, and mental stimulation they need to thrive and feel right at home.

“They were great! Lots of land and friends for summer to place with, she sent pictures showing how much fun summer was having and made sure we weren’t rushing either. Great option if you’re visiting luray, they are north of Harrisonburg so the drive down and back to luray were short. Highly recommended”

“I can’t thank Lidija enough for helping us in a pinch! She was so good to our boy Max and I’m so appreciative of the support she gave me, a new nervous momma.”

About: Energetic, up and coming dog trainer! I studied for two years at a shop with a dog nutritionist, have apprenticed with a dog trainer for the past year, and just completed a six month program with Highland Canine Dog Training in North Carolina. My love for dogs really started upon volunteering to walk dogs at my local animal shelter and continued to helping with my reactive family pup become her best confident self. I love working with any and all pets including but not limited to puppies, senior dogs, large breeds, anxious pets, cats and even small animals including rats. Any help I can offer with your pet I am here for it! I work part time throughout the week but I officially started my dog training business Howl to Heel LLC and that is my main priority! I will do anything to work in my pet parents into my schedule and offer all assistance needed! I have my dogs fully vaccinated, crate trained and constantly active with new training goals. I have experience working with all different dog breeds and ages. I have taken courses in dog body language to help navigate communication with our furry friends to know when a little help is needed. I always check in with owners in food restrictions and keep a close eye on every pet I watch to keep everybody out of harms way!

“We found the family to be very welcoming and nice and thought they treated our puppy very well. We would certainly use them again if we are in the area. Johnette Orr”

“Brandy did a great job watching our dog Summer for the day! She provided us updates and pics all through the day, providing us extra reassurance that Summer was having a good time and settling in nicely. We will definitely reach out to Brandy again the next time we bring Summer down to Massanutten!”
