About: I have dog watched for my neighbors every time they leave for town for multiple weeks in a row. I was responsible for walking and feeding them as well as checking on them every hour. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I’m available any time of day, any day of the week—including weekends. I’m flexible and happy to work around your pet’s schedule to make sure they get the care and attention they need when you need it most. I will spend more than the minimum hours with your dog and make sure they are happy. I will play with them and run with them if needed. I will be respectful of your house and make sure everything stays organized and neat.

About: My love for animals all started when I was eight and took care of a family friend's cats. Since then, I have gained experience with animals of all types and sizes. In addition to our family dog, I adopted a rabbit of my own who was my pride and joy for six years before succumbing to a hereditary health issue. I also have taken horse lessons, and I currently volunteer with a nearby animal shelter as a dog walker and socializer. I am comfortable with pets of all sizes and breeds, and I look forward to offering your pet the best care it can get. I am currently working remotely, so pet care will be sprinkled throughout my daily routine. Because my schedule is spaced out and very flexible, I will be able to visit your pet as many times as needed throughout the day (or even stay at the house while working if asked) to ensure that they are getting the quality care and attention they need. I work with my clients to give both them and their pets the best possible experience. Prior to hire, I am happy (and in fact, prefer) to have a free 15-30 minute consultation to familiarize myself to the pet and discuss any care specifics that the client may have. Because my care is individualized and will conform to the owner's wishes, I love to send pictures and videos throughout the day of the pet's activities and any extra-cute moments. I make it a habit to send short write-ups of the day and the pet's activities that day so that my clients feel as connected as possible to their pets.

About: I have been in the pet industry for 15+ years including veterinary, retail and boarding. I also did house and pet sitting for a good friend of mine many times. I have worked in the petcare industry for more that 15 years. Most of it as a retail manager. I've done veterinary and boarding jobs also. I'm ready to basically become my own boss and do what I really love. I am still a part-time retail worker and full-time homemaker but would love to include your pets in my everyday activities! I have fur babies and scale babies of my own. This includes 1 dog, 3 cats, 2 tree frogs, 2 leopard geckos, 1 hamster and multiple fish. They are not only my hobby but part of my family. My dog and cats are allowed on furniture so they can cuddle with us.

About: As someone who was raised on a fully functioning farm, animal husbandry has been a part of my daily routine since I could walk! I have experience with almost every domestic animal under the sun, but dogs and cats have always been very personal to me. I would love to extend my love for pets to you and your fur family by caring for them as I would my own. Caring for pets is my full time job! I am highly flexible and usually able to accommodate whatever you and your furbabies need. When house sitting, I will need to leave at least once a day to check in at my house, but otherwise your pets have my full attention. I want your pets to be safe and happy. I am willing to take on whatever routine you have established to make your time away as easy on your pets as possible. Safety and fun are my top priorities!

“Isa saved my butt doing a last minute walk when my other sitter just didn’t show up. She has always been very responsive and flexible. We appreciate her so much!”

“I only needed a few minutes with Liz and my dog to know he was in good hands. Liz has been prompt, reliable, kind, and competent. Perfect person to walk my skittish dog.”

About: I've taken care of cats all my life and dogs from time to time. From back when I was a teen at home with our family cat to my own Tuxedo Kiwi I've been caring for cats all my life. I have a deep understanding of cat body language, respecting their boundaries, and providing the attention and care they need. I work from home as a software developer and am looking for something to break up my day between calls and project tasks. Being a remote worker means I don't get much excitement day to day. Let me change up my day to day by helping you out with your pets! I live in my own home with plenty of space for walks, trails nearby for exploring, and an open and clean home for time away from the sun.

About: As a pet parent myself, I understand the worry and anxiety that can come with leaving your beloved companion in someone else’s care. That’s why I promise to treat your pet with the same love, compassion, and attention I give my own—because they’re not just animals, they’re family. I’ve been caring for pets of all shapes and sizes for over 15 years. My journey began as a kennel staff member at an animal hospital, where I learned the foundations of professional pet care and developed a deep appreciation for the trust pet owners place in their caregivers. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and other small animals—each with their own personalities, needs, and quirks. I have experience administering medication (both oral and topical), working with senior pets who need a gentler pace, and supporting animals with anxiety or special needs. Whether your furry friend needs high-energy playtime, a relaxing walk, or simply someone to sit quietly with them, I tailor my care to make them feel comfortable, secure, and loved. I’m known for being dependable, detail-oriented, and communicative—I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring hands. Whether you're away for a weekend or a few weeks, I'm here to provide peace of mind and a positive experience for both you and your pet. Because when you're not home, I want your pet to feel like they still are. I am currently a stay at home mom and have the daily flexibility to ensure your pets needs are met accordingly and to your standard! Your pet's safety and your home's security are my top priorities. I understand the trust it takes to welcome someone into your personal space, and I don’t take that lightly. I treat every home with the utmost respect—keeping things clean, secure, and just as you left them. I'm mindful, responsible, and always aim to leave both your pet and your home better than I found them. You can count on me to follow your instructions closely, respect your privacy, and keep you updated regularly. Whether it’s locking up properly, caring for houseplants, or maintaining your pet’s routine to a T, I take every detail seriously. Your peace of mind means everything, and I’m committed to creating a safe, calm environment your pet can feel comfortable in while you're away.

About: I’ve had dogs most of my adult life and they are my children. Your fur baby will live like a king/queen during their time with me. I will have play time, snuggles, and walks. I work from home so it’s easy to take care of your fur baby. They will have most of my attention and I walk five times I live in a great neighborhood and everyone is out walking. If your animal sleeps with you, then they will sleep with me. Anything I can do so your furry friend feels at home.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I can remember, there has never been a time I have not had a dog. I currently pet sit for my coworkers and family regularly. I love dogs of all sizes! I know how to care for dogs of all ages, from puppy to senior. Hello! I’m a full-time CNA and I’m looking to offer part-time pet care services Monday-Thursday. If you need someone reliable to look after your fur babies, I’d be happy to assist with any care your pets need, from feeding and walking to just providing companionship. Let’s chat about how I can help take care of your pets while you’re away! Caring for pets, whether they’re my own or someone else’s takes attention, routine, and understanding of each animal’s unique personality. Pets like people like consistency. I ensure I understand their regular feeding times, exercise habits. Understanding each animals play habits helps keep them entertained and happy. Documenting medical concerns and medication needed to ensure properly given, and monitor for any signs of illness. Pets, especially those away from their owners, can experience anxiety, some more than others! I engage with them to provide companionship such as playtime & cuddles! I keep an eye on body language and behavior to ensure they are comfortable. I keep open communication, providing updates and reporting any concerns. Trust is vital, and being responsive to a client’s pet care preferences or concerns is important. Ensure I have vet and contact information in the event of an emergency.

About: I’ve taken care of my own dog for nine years. I’ve also walked dogs at the Lynchburg Humane Society for years, and petsitted for and walked many others over the years. I’m available all summer thru mid August for pet walking/sitting. I’m very flexible due to my part-time work and am always open to last-minute requests! I have years of experience pet sitting within owners’ homes and am willing to accommodate whatever needs they have for their own home and their pets. I adore animals and have enough experience caring for them to be confident I can provide a positive experience for everyone involved.

“Jessica has been a wonderful caretaker & companion to our sweet, old dogs. I would definitely recommend her to my family, friends, & co-workers for their pet care needs. Jessica was so nice to meet us prior to booking her services & sent pictures of her visit, as well as bring our sweet boys a treat or two. Our dogs usually have terrible separation anxiety & stop eating, yet with Jessica's help they didn't miss a meal, a belly rub, a treat, or a walk. Thank you so much Jessica for taking such good care of our furry family members! We appreciate you.”

About: I have been raising and caring for a variety of animals for over 25 years! Having experience with all kinds of animals, I know the importance of meeting the needs of each animal and giving it the love and care it deserves and desires. I have several families that reach out to me when they are planning a trip so that I can care for their pets while they are away. I understand the importance of maintaining the pet owners routine, commands, and affection with their pets to help reduce anxiety and stress while they are away. My goal is to love their pets as if they are my own. I have cared for our own dogs as seniors and have experience with failing body functions and know how to administer medications and assist the animal with getting up and moving around. I also have much experience with puppies since I breed Australian Shepherds and care for the puppies from the time they are born until they are at an appropriate age and health standard to go to their new families. I am so excited to meet many other pet families in our area and live on your pet so you can feel comfortable and at peace any time you need to travel and your pet has to stay behind. It’s hard enough to say good-bye, so having peace of mind on how they will be cared for while you are away can make a good trip a GREAT one!! I am available most days of the week for 24/7 care since we are a homeschooling family and I am a stay at home mom. Pets are allowed in our home as long as they get along well with other pets and children. I do have an unground fence and collars that I can use to teach your pet to stay in our yard. I also have two nice size kennels that give dogs plenty of room to wander inside and outside the kennel walls.

About: I’ve had pets of all sizes, shapes, and needs. I’d love to take your dog for a walk, feed your bearded dragon, or snuggle with your cat. Working from home allows me the flexibility to give special attention or break for a walk any time of day! Your pet will love laying at my feet, exploring my fenced in back yard, or getting some exercise on a walk around town. I have a fenced in yard and an old, friendly dog and 3 cautious cats to keep your pet company. Your pet will have run of the house like they’re at home. I am happy to crate your pet if that is your preference.

“Nice, gentle, and knowledgeable.”

About: As the daughter of a groomer, I have been around dogs since I was a child. I have seen a variety of different sizes and breeds over the years, and have experienced many different temperaments as well. I am a dog lover in all aspects, I have 5 dogs of my own, big and small, and they are my children. My goal is to provide you with relief and peace of mind that your dogs are in good hands as I have taken care of dogs since I was around 9 years old. I have experience administering medications, topical creams, and proper grooming (thanks Mom!) to many different dogs and understand that all are different and special in their own way! Additionally, I have worked on a farm on and off during my youth, so I have experience working with large animals and small animals and birds too! I am a college student studying at Virginia Tech, so pet care has always been my full time job during the summers! I do have a part time job right now, but my boss is knowledgeable of my passion for animals and allows me to create my work schedule around my animal schedule! I provide excellent care by providing what’s truly important in the pet care world: peace of mind. Leaving your dogs or cats with me would mean leaving them with someone who would love them, take them on hearty walks, wants to spend time with them, and give them all the pets and attention they could ask for during a stressful time when their owners were away. I want to take that stress away!
