Dog Walkers in Hideaway Lake, VA

“Morrigen has taken care of my two senior kitties and I came back to happy, healthy kitties who love their auntie Morrigen! As seniors their needs are a bit greater but that didn't faze her in the last. I trust very few people to take care of these sweethearts, but I ABSOLUTELY trust Morrigen with them and in my home generally.”

“Kim has been our nanny for 13 years caring for our children and pets daily. Also when we go out of town, she cares for our animals. She is nothing short of amazing! Animals gravitate to her like Snow White. She just understands them and they give her so much love in return. She is dependable and trustworthy and I would not trust anyone else with our precious babies!”

About: Hi! I've grown up with dogs my whole life, raising, training and taking care of all their needs. Since I was 16 and could drive myself to and from, I want dog sitting for family and friends. I have walked multiple dogs and cats and have experience with dogs of all sizes. Last year I decided to get my own dog to have and raise while in school at JMU. Millie lives with me and has allowed me to even better understand every aspect that goes into caring and raising a dog. I would love to look after your furry friend and know how to care for you're animals just as I care for mine. I take 1 class a day in the morning for 2 hours and am free the rest of the day and night to care for your animal/animals I feed my own dog twice a day and make sure to walk her after for a potty break. She is taken on a long walk or to a dog park once a day to relieve her energy. If she's extra hyper I know many enrichment toys and DIYs to make to help stimulate their minds.

“I have known Alex for a long time now! She is an amazing person and for as long as I can remember her life revolves around animals. She is super friendly and a great communicator. She watches my dogs on occasion and always goes out of her way to be outstanding. She's bringing her own treats to spoil the dogs, and is always sending me photos which makes me feel good! I would highly recommend Alex”

“Gabby did a great job on coming by the house and walking Goldie while I was out of town. I received text messages when she was picked up, dropped off, and details of the walk taken, and how many times there bio functions done. She is a really conscientious sitter, and took great care avoiding other dogs that might be a problem on the walk. I would hire her again, and recommend her to anyone that needs a dog walker.”
