“Mandy has cared for our two dogs twice and she is wonderful! We have a 3 year old Sheltie and a Golden Retriever puppy that is 5 months old. Her prices are reasonable and we usually have her stay for an hour for extra playtime because the puppy is crated when we are away. Very pleased!”
About: Hello thank you for visiting my profile! I am a friendly and responsible woman who works full time as an Uber driver so I am able to work with any timetable you need while I am in town. I fly to Germany every other month or 2 and my calendar will reflect when I am going to be out of town. Ich spreche ein bisschen deutch + hablo un poco Español. Background: I grew up in a house full of dogs and cats and also on a farm with farm animals (child of divorce). I now have my big baby Hera (10 y/o mastiff lab mix) who is spoiled beyond words. I have also spent time volunteering at the SW VA Wildlife Rescue so I have experience working with non traditional pets and hand nursing. I have helped birth and look after 11 healthy german shepard puppies (including 24/7 care)! Please contact me if you have any questions and I look forward to caring for your precious animals! I am extremely flexible to fit your schedule! I am a self employed Uber driver and set my own hours. I fly to Germany every month or 2 and my calendar will reflect that. Your pets will be treated with love and respect! I will follow all instructions given and cater to each unique animal as needed. When house sitting I am very attentive to locking up and making sure doors are latched securely. I have experience with difficult doors and your pet's safety is my top priority!

I am available on Friday and Saturday evenings after 6pm and Sunday and Mondays throughout the day! This schedule is subject to change due to being a full time stay at home momma. In clients homes I respect boundaries and upkeep the areas your pets use. I will ensure they are comfort and trusting of me before approaching and interacting!

“Valerie has watched my kitty, Sammy, three times now. She shows up as promised and sends me photos of my sweet boy. She doesn’t hesitate to contact me with questions or to reassure that Sammy is fine. I’d recommend Valerie to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
About: Hi! I have taken care of puppies and dogs since I was 8 years old. I helped my family raise numerous litters, assisted with medical care, and cared for dogs through all stages of life. I have always had a dog by my side to call my best friend, and have many fur-iends I care for when their families go out of town. I WFH and can be available! I am looking to help those throughout the day and some at night if you get in a pinch. I am well equipped to handle your furry family member in your home and environment - knowing their wants and needs. Please let me know their favorite routine, treat, TV show, toy, walk, etc.
About: From an early age, I've taken care of animals small-to-large, parrots-to-malamutes and I believe they're all special, giving us an endless quality of life 💓. Making time for ani-fam is never an inconvenience because it is a practice of fulfilling a pet's needs. ☺️ It also helps to fulfill my self-care/ spiritual health needs by nurturing another living being. I find I function best when I care for an animal as it keeps me on task, on schedule, and mentally happy, too! Our two family cats are fed early in the am/pm, plenty of (consensual) belly rubs, a daily lil' treat, playtime and plenty of nap time as well as personal space, as they see fit. We also share the past-time of birdwatching in the countryside. ✨ When it comes to your pet and your home, I am dedicated to respecting your pet's dietary restrictions, physical "play" needs, and always approaching with love and respect, as I will be the guest in their/your home. Between a strict regimen or low-maintenance regimen for your animal, I would require meeting with you/them in your space beforehand to make sure I get a thorough briefing. I also believe this helps with introductory bonding, showing I am a safe person to trust, and not cause unwanted stress on your pet.
“Sage was wonderful and a lifesaver! She took good care of my kitty and I felt safe leaving my house and my kitty. There was an evacuation alert for the wildfire, luckily it didn't escalate, but Sage offered to stay and even take my kitty to a shelter if needed, she's truly a beautiful person with a big heart, I'm so grateful!”
About: Homemade treats and lots of love and fun! We enjoy playing at home, going for long walks, playing at the dog park, riding with the windows down, belly rubs, kisses and cuddles. I don’t mind taking to the vet or pet stores to be of more help to you. Enjoy light grooming and brushing with your approval. No matter the size, they are all puppies or kitties to me lol. I even have jumps and hoops for the active pups who like to jump and have a good time. I can give meds and special diets when needed. I have many referrals.i have two daughters who both work for rover as well. We would love to spend time with your babies and give them love and attention I am a stay at home mom that works one day a week i am free to love and care for your babies while you are away. I am willing to crate when you ask me to but prefer time out of crate to spend with your babies. Nothing like playing ball or cuddling. Whatever your pet need, I’m available.

“We contacted Veronica somewhat last minute due to evolving travel plans, and she was responsive and accommodating. Our plans changed a bit even after we had hired her, and she was able to adjust and take on some extra visits. We were very pleased with her work, her positive attitude, and the way she connected with our dog. She was consistent in checking in and sending us photos of Lily, which gave us confidence that all was well! We highly recommend Veronica as a quality, conscientious pet caretaker!”

She is very comfortable with all size dogs and even prefers larger breeds while other walkers may shy away from.

Understanding dog behavior is a very important whether it’s being a kennel worker, a veterinarian, or a dog walker understanding behavior and reading the dog is a crucial step in providing the best of care for any pet.
