“Lila was so helpful in taking care of my pups while I was out of town for the holidays. She was very easy to work with supplementing the times my friends were unavailable. She took very good care of my anxious dogs. I’d definitely use her again!”

“Danyelle is AMAZING!!! Took such great care of my boys over a holiday. Gave me daily updates and even put up with some of their eating "quirks", which isn't always easy. But she was super patient with them and gave them all the love they needed while I was gone. I was so super happy and relaxed to know they were in such great and caring hands. Heck, even just the trek to my trash can for litter box cleaning was an extra effort in and it's self. Can't recommend Danyelle enough!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs (and cats) since I was old enough to walk. I have extensive experience with younger dogs and senior dogs. My senior dog passed recently, but through her I gained experience in handling leash and dog aggression, administering medicine, and making her comfortable in later years. I am trained in leash walking aggressive dogs, and I have experience with being firm for training. Your dog will enjoy long walks, lots of pets, and playful energy staying with me. I love animals and I always look to put their best interests first. I work full time from home, which allows me flexibility through the day to care for pets. While I have other hobbies, one of my favorite things to do is walk through Richmond, so your dog will be happily exhausted after staying with me! I live in a two level, large apartment. I do not have any other pets or children, so your fur baby will be our number one priority! My home is near Byrd park and other great neighborhoods to walk in. Your pet will be allowed on the couch, but I am happy to crate them if you’re more comfortable. I do not smoke and keep a very tidy home, so your pet will be safe under my care.

About: I've had pets for most of my life. I've grown up with cats in the house but i've had a hamster and a few dogs before when i was younger. My sister also had a snake (a fancy corn snake) that i took care of a lot for a year. I've done pet sitting for a friend and my sister before. My friend had a Samoyed and a Ragdoll. While my sister has a pit/lab mix. I'm currently in college so i will mainly be available during the weekends. I currently have Mon, Wed, and Fri off from classes and will be available in the mornings and afternoons. While I don't offer services in my home, I am willing to travel to a clients home and willing to do overnights on the weekends.

About: I work full time as a Registered Nurse, but I have a love for all animals and would love to hang with your fur babies on my days off. I have years of experience taking care of all animals, I grew up around dogs, cats, birds, horses, frogs, and snakes . We have an aussie named Blue that we love so much and I would love to help you out with your furry friends. I can provide references as needed but can assure you your babies will be in good hands. We can also work on training as needed, make trips to the dog park, or just walk around the block! My pup is really playful so we could also have play dates if you feel comfortable with that.

Church Hill North, Richmond, VA, 23223

About: I frequently dogsit for friends and family, and I've had my soul-dog for 5 years! She's a rescue shepherd-husky mix and has taught me SO much about training and caring for a smart, high-energy dog! She's entering her senior years and has slowed down a lot, which means I have more time in my day to care for other pups, whether it's a check-in, walk, or boarding in my home. I have a fenced front and back yard, and with my location in Church Hill, there are countless places to walk and explore. I currently work from home 95% of the time! The other 5% is a mix of working at coffee shops and going in to my work's coworking space, but I'm never away from home for more than 8 hours a day. My days are very flexible and I'm happy to work around you and your pup's schedule! I have a fenced front yard that is grassy and a shady, fenced back patio/yard that pups can run around in. I only take 1 boarding or day-care client at a time, so your dog gets my full attention (alongside my pup!). Your dog must be friendly around other dogs for boarding or day care.

About: I worked for a pet sitting company (Woofies) for about a year. I have worked with all different types of dogs and cats. I have also worked with hamsters, fish and guinea pigs. I average about 8-12 visits a week and about 40 a month. I am extremely flexible and reliable as well. I have had regular clients for months on end and made bonds with lots of pets. I am currently very available and willing to work around many schedules. I am used to planning day around visits and making times for the pets. I am used to house rules and regulation. I avoid areas specified and work hard to gain client trust. I follow all tasks listed and try to get to know the pet as well. I can do meals, medications, walks/potty breaks, playtime, light cleaning and more! I follow the instructions given by the client at all times.

About: My partner and I bring over 10 years of dog care experience and 5+ years managing a stable multi-dog group. We carefully watch body language, work to prevent issues early, and keep feeding routines steady so each dog feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for. We’re comfortable working with multi-dog households, different energy levels, and group dynamics. Our focus is creating a safe, structured, and positive environment where dogs can socialize, play, and settle comfortably. My specialty is organization and structure, my partner specializes in socialization and behavioral management. Pet care is part of our daily life. Someone is home throughout the day. We organize our schedule around the dogs in our care so they receive consistent supervision, play, and individual attention. We have a fenced backyard and fenced front yard, giving dogs safe space to move, explore, and play. Inside we provide a dedicated dog room and crates for dogs of all sizes, creating a comfortable and secure place for them to rest when needed. Dogs are thoughtfully grouped by temperament, with attention to proper rest rotation and consistent feeding routines to support balance and comfort. Whether in our home or a client’s home, we focus on safety, supervision, and each dog’s individual needs. We follow established routines, maintain a steady and secure environment, and make sure every dog feels comfortable, cared for, and at ease.

Caitlin did an excellent job feeding our 4 kitties while we were out of town a few times over the past few weeks. She comes on time, takes such great photos of our babies, and stays to play with them and give them love. Communication is always clear and efficient, and even though this is my first time using Rover she’s made it easy! Thank you Caitlin!

Kay was awesome, very in tune to our cat's needs, and took such great care of them. Our 2 girls can be skittish, and she was very patient in warming up to them and kept us updated during our 2 week trip. We will absolutely be asking her to take care of our cats in the future.
