Destiny is the best! Our dog is a 70+lb 6 month old puppy and Destiny exudes the energy of a calm, experienced dog handler who clearly loves dogs, but also knows how to keep them chill! She is also super with communication!

About: From pint-sized 5lb Yorkies with fabulous hair to giant 130lb Goldens with a fluffy tail. I’ve loved and cared for them all! I adapt to every pup’s vibe: ready to hit the trail for a run, wander the park for a sniff-filled stroll, or curl up under a cozy blanket for cuddle time. As a true outdoors lover, I’m happiest when tails are wagging, noses are twitching, and pups feel safe, loved, and spoiled. Pet care is part of my everyday life! I work from home MWF and off on the weekends , so your dog will have company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. My husband and I are active and love going on walks, exploring parks, and enjoying outdoor adventures. Perfect opportunities for your pup to join in on the fun. Whether it’s morning playtime, mid-day potty breaks, or evening strolls, we make sure pets are engaged, exercised, and happy. Of course, we also love cozy downtime, so there’s always space for blanket cuddles and belly rubs. Your dog will be treated like part of our family, with a balance of activity, companionship, and comfort. In your home, we stick to all your guidelines and expectations, making sure everything stays secure and exactly as we found it. At our house, we ask that pups are potty trained since we have carpet upstairs, but don’t worry, I work from home, so your dog can enjoy frequent trips to our fenced backyard for playtime, potty breaks, or fresh-air fun. Whether at your home or ours, your pup will get lots of love, attention, and wag-worthy adventures!

About: I am a musician, property manager, & ex-software dev who enjoys taking care of animals. One of my favorite experiences was caring for a small farm (dogs, cats, horses, and chickens!) in Kentucky. I love taking dogs on walks around town & to explore the river! I am committed to consistent and clear communication; I place a high value on the professional relationship between house-sitter and host. I love sending daily updates as requested. I don't work during the day, so I can accommodate feedings, med delivery, walks, and playtime all day long! I try to structure my day around the client's schedule, so that the animals don't experience a disruption in their normal routine. I love doing overnight sits for pets in the environment they are most comfortable in — their own home. I find it easy to adapt to a pet’s schedule and routine and I love exploring new places around town via walks!

About: I have experience caring for dogs through both long-term and everyday responsibilities, including helping raise my aunt’s dog from puppyhood and regularly caring for my boyfriend’s dog. My responsibilities have included walking, feeding, playtime, maintaining routines, and providing companionship to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care and attention I give to each pet individually. I understand that being away from their owner can be stressful for some animals, so I focus on creating a calm, reassuring, and positive environment where they feel secure and loved. My experience caring for puppies has also taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of paying close attention to behavior, routines, and energy levels. I treat every pet with the same care, compassion, and responsibility I would want for my own animals. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for my own cats. I make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention and playtime throughout the day. I even take my cat on walks, so I’m very attentive to both physical activity and emotional enrichment. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so being patient, observant, and consistent with their routines comes very naturally to me. II believe pets communicate their needs through their behavior and body language, so I always pay close attention to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I respect each pet’s boundaries while also giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and care. In both my home and a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, maintaining their routine, and making sure they don’t feel lonely or stressed while their owner is away.

About: I have cherished animals my entire life - from having my own to caring for others. Currently, I am a dog mom to a 4 year pit bull mix who is full of energy and love. I have experience with big dogs, high energy, senior and those who need frequent exercise/walks. I work from home so I have the time and flexibility to take care of your fur baby! I’m happy to take them for walks, play with their toys or cuddle on the couch. My pet is crate trained and has gone through obedience classes so I understand how helpful structure can be. Every pets personality and needs are different so I’m happy to follow a routine that works for them.

I pride myself on treating every pet as if they were my own, and enjoy every second I get to spend with them! I am a nurse, so I normally only work 3 days a week and am free to walk and care for your pet on my days off! I take your dogs safety seriously when on walks, always keep them leashed, and avoid other animals while on walks just for safety! I am familiar with reactive dogs, and give plenty of space for your dog to feel safe and comfortable while walking!

About: I’ve volunteered with the Richmond SPCA when I was younger in my teens by walking, feeding, and cleaning up after dogs of all sizes. I’m a current cat owner of my cat Tigress of 5 years. And I’m the dog sitter my parents need when they go on trips out of town and I am available. Their past dog who had diabetes needed regular insulin shots after every meal. And their current dog today who I have watched over since he was 8 weeks old; taking of feeding and exercise needs. I currently work a 2-2-3 schedule meaning my days available with be different every week, but I am guaranteed at least 2-3 days off every week to help with your dog’s exercise needs! I only offer dog walking services as of right now and I can gladly visit you and your pets home for their dog walking needs

About: With 9 years of experience as a veterinary assistant, I bring both professional medical knowledge and genuine compassion to every pet I care for. I have extensive hands-on experience with cats and dogs of all ages, temperaments, and health conditions, including seniors, anxious pets, and animals requiring medications or specialized care. Working in veterinary medicine has taught me how to recognize subtle changes in behavior and health, respond calmly in stressful situations, and tailor care to each animal’s individual needs. Beyond my professional experience, animals have always been a huge part of my life. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is deeply personal, and I strive to provide the same level of attentiveness, patience, and affection that I would want for my own pets. Whether your dog needs long walks and playtime or your cat prefers quiet companionship and routine, I create a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I am currently taking a break for myself from my career in veterinary medicine so I have all the time in the world for your beloved kiddos! I provide detailed updates, photos, and consistent communication so you can feel confident your pets are safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual personality, routine, and medical needs. Whether your baby is shy, energetic, senior, or requires medications or extra monitoring, I create a calm, low-stress environment built on patience, trust, and compassion. Your pets will always be treated like family in my care.

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!

About: I have owned animals my whole life. Since I was about 8 I was always the one responsible for their care and well being. In high school and throughout college - even now I was always the one friends and family relied on to care for their pets while on vacation or otherwise out of town. I am a college graduate and currently a full time mom and you can trust that I will be nothing but professional and responsible in your home and with your beloved pets. I work part time as a household manager and have open availability except for Monday-Thursday 4pm to 6pm so I have plenty of time to walk, play with, feed and give lots of pets to your pets! My husband works from home and will also be available to let out your dog for potty breaks if I happen to be out of the house. I am completely free on the weekends as well. Our home has a lovely fenced backyard where your dog can frolic and join us in a game of fetch. We have 1 friendly terrier who would love a doggy friend! We also have 1 reclusive cat and a 4 month old baby - please no dogs that would have issues with them in the home.

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.

About: Hi! My name is Mary and I love working with cats and dogs! I have had two dogs and I currently have two cats so I know how to handle each pet. I enjoy walking and playing with dogs. I am part time working so I am flexible with hours. Growing up I have always had some type of pet so I am very used to being around with animals and taking care of them. I know how to clean a litter box, feed dogs/cats, etc. I am looking to dog/cat sit so I can make some extra money, and I am very flexible with schedules. I am very responsible and am good at taking care of things/pets. I prefer dogs who do not pull when walking. I am part time working so I am very flexible! I can do middle of the day if that is what a pet parents needs! I make my pets feel super special. Since I live in the city I have a harness for my cat and I take her out once a day!

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!!

B is great! I reached out to her 6 weeks before traveling to Richmond to arrange walk for my dog for one day. B went out of her way to meet with me and meet my dog the day before at our Airbnb. My dog immediately took a liking to her. B took great care of my dog. I would recommend her 100% and would have her as a regular dog walker if I lived in the area.

Seriously 10/10 recommend. Zack was so patient and understanding with my dog Sanova, even when she had issues with barking and getting used to him. He stayed kind, consistent, genuine, and happy to help no matter what. He was very communicative throughout and such a pleasure to have around. Sanova always got lots of exercise and great care when she was with him- his services were a huge relief to me and my boyfriend’s bust schedules. If you’re looking for a sign to book him for his services- this is it.
