Dog Walkers in Holly Corner, VA

About: I’m owned by a dog who never leaves my side, so I understand that your pup isn't just a pet—they’re a companion. I bring that same 'velcro' level of attention to your home, ensuring your dog feels seen, heard, and loved while you're away. My daily routine is built around being mobile and available. Because I don't host dogs in my own home, my 'workday' is entirely dedicated to traveling to yours. This allows me to give your pet 100% of my attention during our scheduled time without the distractions of other animals or chores. When I enter your home, my priority is making your dog feel safe and excited. I start every visit with a calm greeting to assess their mood. Whether they are a 'velcro dog' who wants immediate cuddles or a curious explorer ready to hit the pavement, I adapt to their energy level.

“Jessica was amazing! She walked my two dogs, a high strung chihuahua and elderly dog (14 y.o.), for 30min for 4 days. She reached out and asked if I wanted her to meet the dogs before walking them which was great. The chihuahua tends to bark his head off at strangers, and I wasn't sure how he'd react (he ended up running away from her the first day for 15min, sorry Jessica). The older dog had diarrhea throughout the house one day, and cleaning up after something like that isn't really what I consider her job. I told her she didn't need to worry about it, and I'd deal with it when I got back. However, she ended up cleaning up as much as she could anyways (that's going to be a big tip). Besides my dogs being a huge pain. She always responded quickly and sent a lot of pictures from the walks.”

About: Ive taken care of animals my entire life and have grown up around dogs. I currently have two high energy dogs that constantly need play and attention. I’m able to walk, play, cuddle, and keep your pup company throughout the day or multiple times a day. My goal is to make every pet owner feel as if their pups are safe and cared for. I’m currently working part time and out of school for the summer so I will have plenty of time for your puppies and I will be able to give them lots of love. I am available from 6am - 5pm for walks, sitting, and playtimes throughout the week. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of playing room for your pups as well as a car to take your pup on many walks. I also have no problem with making myself at home with your puppies even if it’s just to cuddle or play.

“She’s amazing! She keeps me updated the whole time and gives my dog water or anything else she needs before she leaves.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years. I have experiences with dogs/cats, rodents, farm animals, etc. I grew up around horses and all sorts of other animals and I love them all! I currently have one dog who is the biggest goof and I absolutely adore him. I am currently pregnant so a little extra exercise on walks will never hurt! I enjoy all the cuddles and kisses as well! I love all animals as if they are my own! I’ve also recently been loving going on hikes or a trip to the dog park…if that’s something your fur baby would be interested in I would love for them to join me! I am able to take your pets on walks, run them around a fenced in yard or even just play tug of war in the house! I am comfortable crating animals, administering meds or anything else they might need!

“Cory was great with my dog, who can be difficult and high energy. He sent plenty of pictures and updates during the visit. I highly recommend him - especially if you are looking for someone that will be patient with your pet!”

“Mary Ann is extremely dependable and demonstrates her compassion for the time spent with Dundee. I appreciate her letting me know not just the time she has spent, but also any things she has taken notice of while walking Dundee. She is amazing with Dundee.”

About: I have a lifetime experience with multiple kinds of pets. I grew up with multiple dogs in the household, a few had behavioral issues but I loved them and I worked with them all the same. I now have an amazing rescue boy, Moose, a high energy black mouth cur. He is amazing. I’ve also had experience administering medications to dogs and caring for my parents elderly black lab. I also currently have four domestic rats: Theo, mouse, Baxter and Nibbles (1-3 years old). So I have experience in the small animal department as well. I have also cared for my sisters cats Beethoven and Chai whenever she is out of town. Feeding, cleaning and administering eye drops and medications. I am open to caring for any animal. I look forward to meeting your furry friend/s. I am currently in between jobs and am looking to supplement my income. I have a daughter who is in school from 730-330 so I am free to care for your pets in between those hours. If needed outside of those hours we would have to talk further and I may be able to accommodate. I just moved into a new apartment so I don’t have the set up to care for your pets at my home (exception, I have a room I could house your small animal/s for a short time). I am working on getting set up for home care. I currently am available to come to you to care for your fur babies. My sister has been very happy with my care of her cats and if you want you can reach out to her for a recommendation, just let me know.

About: I have been taking care of dogs for 10 years, whether mine or those belonging to family. I have trained puppies as well as taken care of my dogs that have reached their golden years, and helped them over the rainbow bridge. My top two priorities are communication and safety. Any need you have regarding your pet is of utmost importance because pets aren’t just animals - they’re family! I have two dogs at home, one is 1 1/2 years old and the other is nearly 4. We walk 3 times daily, as well as plenty of enrichment time inside. Enrichment depends on the day, it can be playing with toys, eating treats from snuffle mats, lick mats, or just running around with them until they’re as tired as I am! Safety is my biggest priority. I follow instructions very carefully, I keep a close eye on your fur babies both in the house and outside. I can send real time updates that way you know exactly what is going on at all times, and I will always make sure to ask questions when needed. I can recreate your pets routine as closely as possible, and I will always bring positive energy!

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was very young, I grew up my whole life with dogs and cats, of all ages (puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats), I absolutely love animals, and am flexible to adjust to your pets specific needs 😊 I am currently working as a Private Investigator part time, and am joining the Marine Corps, however, I know my schedule in advance and am pretty much 100% free whenever you need someone to look after your baby! I am very flexible and understand that pets can be spontaneous sometimes! I am able to adjust to whatever you and your pets needs are!

About: Ive fostered, worked, helped out many shelters for the past 7 years. I can handle all types of animals and I founded an animal welfare organization at my college! While on break from my university, I am free almost all day, nights, and random moments to make sure all checkins, potty break, and even medication is on time. While I am in home, I ensure so many photos to the owners! I love to sit outside, play, and enjoy the company of any animal. All animals are safe with me, as I founded an animal welfare organization at my college.

About: I been around dogs and cats my whole life. I been housesitting for family and friends for the last 5-6years. My grandmother’s pets are on a strict schedule, and diet therefore I understand strict diet. I’ve worked on a farm so I have experience with farm animals, small pets, and some exotic animals. In the last two years, I’ve had two sets of puppies so I know what it takes to care of puppies. My Roxy was 13 year old when we had to put her down from old age, so I know what it takes to care for a senior dog. I’m currently not working, therefore I have plenty of time to cuddle, play and care with your pets. I can send pictures and/or videos thought your vacation for peace of mind! I like taking care of pets in their own house to make them feel as safe as possible. I will follow any rules or instructions you have for your house and pets.

About: I have always had a pet in the home, from fish to dogs! Pets are an amazing part of our families and deserve the special care and attention that our own human children have from us as parents. That’s why every four-legged visitor in my home receives the 5-star resort experience. Let me know what I can do for you and your furry friends today! I usually work from 9-5 on most weekdays approximately 5 minutes from home. That gives me the flexibility to check in on your pet throughout the day. For boarding, expect your pet to be snuggled, given food & treats (at your discretion), and receive quality walks. Drop-in visits are my preference, as well as walks. Nonetheless, please let me know what I can do to provide you with the best service possible. Beyond the normal pets, I love to ensure your pets receive the special care they need. From meds to treats, they will get the concierge experience.

About: I will offer the love and attention your animal deserves! This family (me, my husband, and our two children, ages 16 and 13 all dog crazy and will be tending to your baby(ies) with love and care. We always treat our canine visitors like they are family. I have experience with a diabetic animal as well, and gave insulin shots for four and a half years to our Pug, Bill. I promise you will get photos and updates during your pet’s stay, and I will not compromise on keeping them safe and secure at all times. We only watch one dog from one family at once, but I will watch two to three dogs from the same family. I will bathe, nail trim, and brush any breed. I will walk them at least twice a day, for about a mile each time, if your dog can handle that physically. I always listen to your animals needs and will honor them. We have a family pet named Ted. He is a three year old Pug. He gets along well with every animal he has ever encountered. We would insist on a new boarding client coming over for a meet and greet first. I would be able to care for your pets in our home. We do not have a fenced yard. I typically will put pets on leashes for their potties and walks unless the owner tells me they are comfortable with them going out with me into the yard for a potty unleashed.

About: I've personally cared for dogs for the better part of ten years. Ever since I met my heart dog Jake thirteen years ago, I have had a love and passion for pets. I currently am an assistance dog training minor at my university where I get to train future service dogs. This has led me to know how to properly care for dogs and understand their behavior beyond a surface level. I am excited to get to know and care for your furry family! I am currently working full time, so I am available for care Fridays-Sundays. I can do weekdays if that schedule works around your pets schedule. I am comfortable working in any home environment, whether there be a backyard or no backyard. If their are any certain circumstances, I am willing to work around them given I am told about them in advance.

About: Dogs show us the true meaning of actions speak louder than words. They love so hard without even telling us, but showing us every day. Before 4 I have open availability M-F so I can go spend all the time I can with everyone. We can go on walks, go find new adventures. With time management and care. They are like children, then need a set schedule. I would love to make schedules for everyone so that they are calm and collected.

About: I have taken care of my sisters pup for about 3-4 years. She is a big girl and very sweet. I would take her on walks and to the dog parks. Also house sit for her. I am currently changing my work schedule but I’m very flexible. Sundays I am 100% available. Others just need to know at an early notice I have a very clean apartment and a pup of my own to keep company and have play dates. I would treat every pup as if it was my own. Making sure the pup is safe and comfortable at all times and most importantly loved.
