Dog Walkers in Lexington, VA

About: I am a fur mommy to an amazing little guy we call Charlie Brown! He is wonderful with adults and children alike! We would love to find him some new friends by watching your cute fur babies too! In my house, someone is always home, so your pet would never be alone! We love to go on long walks through the neighborhood and the local park. Our Charlie Brown loves car rides! My husband is great with animals and loves to play with them! We also have a 4 year old girl who is learning to play with our dogs as well and a full of life 7 year old boy who loves animals, so playtime is all the time here! There is never a dull moment, that's for sure! If you aren't comfortable with your pet coming to our house, that's ok too! I (we) can come to you! I'm a trustworthy, respectful, playful dogsitter as well. Transportation is not an issue. I can stay over night or just check in from time to time with your little one. It's all up to you! Let me know what you need and we can figure it all out. I am looking forward to hearing from you and to getting to know all of those adorable fur babies!!!! "Ready to spoil, walk, pet and play! With our family, it's always a fun day!!!" I work for myself so my schedule is never an issue! Whatever may be needed, I will make happen. However, written instructions are always helpful! I don't have a fenced yard. However I do have a runner line that your pets can be hooked to outside so they can play as much as they want to without worry!!

“Great service for Persia. Look forward to scheduling more walks and possibly boarding in the future. Amanda was very knowledgeable and helpful since I was a first time user of Rover. Persia enjoyed her walks and looks forward to seeing her again.”

About: I love dogs and have had or been around dogs my whole life. I would dog sit for neighbors while they were out of town at a young age and have always had a pup in the family growing up. I will love your pup like my own and take steps to ensure your pup is happy and healthy. Currently, i have a part time job that I adore, but need to fill in the gaps of not being full time. I am available to do check ins throughout the day and have all weekends off to provide care and support. I am an early riser, so I will be available all day for any pet services you may need. Should my current availability change, all clients will be given appropriate notice and I will do my best to continue working with clients to find a schedule that works for the both of us. I currently do have a fenced-in yard and I am within walking distance of some great walking trails and downtown Buena Vista. I also have access to a house in Fairfield that is on a 2 acre lot and has a 40 foot dog run line. Working with whatever is comfortable and convenient for you and your four legged friends, I will ensure that their time with me is filled with play and exercise.

About: I grew up around both cats and dogs and have always loved animals. I currently have a one-year-old miniature dachshund and a 10-year-old cat, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and sticking to whatever routine your pet is used to. I’m patient with shy or nervous animals and will make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I am available on weekday evenings (5-9pm)/early mornings (5-6:30 am) and 100% available on weekends. I am open to discussing other options as well! Just reach out :) I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and sticking to the routine they’re used to. I pay attention to things like secure doors, leashes on walks, and making sure pets aren’t getting into anything they shouldn’t. I treat other people’s pets the same way I treat my own and always try to make them feel relaxed while their owners are away. I’m also happy to send updates so you know how your pet is doing.
