Dog Walkers in Lightfoot, VA

About: I grew up with two dogs. Over the years I've cared for and walked many dogs, and I now share my home with two cats of my own. I have an open summer schedule, so pet care fits in perfectly. I have plenty of time and flexibility to accommodate any requests that come my way. I care for my two cats daily in my apartment, keeping a clean and comfortable environment. I feed them, groom them, clean the litter box, and make sure they get plenty of playtime. For every pet parent, I follow their instructions and adapt to their pet's individual routine and needs.

“Honey is wonderful with Honey! She sends me pictures and gives me a report on how Ciara is doing daily! Also, was very generous in giving Ciara more time mid week. I recommend Honey highly to my friends!! Thanks Honey ❤️”

About: I started volunteering at the Humane Society at the age of 11, where I fell in love with caring for animals. I lived on a base where people traveled frequently and I was trusted to keep their pets safe and looked after. I now work at a dog daycare/ boarding facility as a kennel attendant, so I have the proper training to take care of your pets. I enjoy my job and have lots of love to give to animals! My schedule is very flexible. I have a two hour lunch break when I do work, and I only work part time. I am a college student and even with next semester coming up, I still will be very available. Unfortunately, I am unavaible at the moment for boarding at my house because of the pets in my household. Hopefully in the near future I will be able to!

“Victoria is amazing! She is extremely communicative and reliable in her services. I have a nervous pet and she went above and beyond to ensure that my dog and I were at ease. She was also able to help me in short notice. She is fantastic and I plan to use her again in the future :)”

About: I have taken care of my family's large dogs all my life and volunteered at a local animal shelter for several years, walking, brushing and exercising dogs! I am comfortable with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and energy levels! I am a new graduate nurse, so spending time with animals and getting out of the house is exactly what the doctor ordered! My schedule is flexible, I am available most days that I am not working. I would be happy to walk leash-trained dogs or play with them in a fenced-in environment. I am also available for check-ins, feedings, or socializations for the animals!

“Craig is great! Professional and friendly- I had so much peace of mind knowing my dog was being well taken care of with him. Highly recommend!!”

“Kimberly was AMAZING!! We are traveling in our RV and she came out to our campsite and walked our dogs for us....She was professional, super nice and the dogs loved her.”

“Caroline walked our dog while we were out of town. I didn’t get the chance to meet her in person but she was prompt and kind. This was our first experience using the rover app and I have complete confidence in using Caroline in the future! I feel much more at ease going out of town knowing that our energetic puppy is being cared for by a sweet girl like Caroline. Thank you so much for helping us out!!”

About: Hi, I’m Sandra! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for pets is something I love. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog is full of energy and ready for long walks and playtime, or your senior pet prefers a slower pace with extra patience and gentle care, I adapt to their individual needs. You can count on me to provide dependable care, regular updates, and plenty of love while you’re away. I’m a stay at home mom and have all the time in the world to spend with the pets in my care. I also enjoy gardening, baking, pottery, walks and spending time with my family. We have a doggie gate and big fenced backyard for your dog to run and play outside. Pets are welcome on the couch so we can all watch movies together. We don’t crate unless specifically requested by clients and we typically go on 2/3 walks a day.

“Nichole is fantastic! She takes such good care of my fur baby, communicates so promptly, and shares lots of pictures! She’s a pro!!! I never worry about my pup when she’s checking in on him and taking care of him!”

“Alyssa has been wonderful! She walked my Lucie 🐶 for the past few weeks to keep her active while I’m gone to work. Lucie and I are very happy 😊 with her service. After each walk she cleaned her paws and make sure she had water and food available.”

About: I am a grad student with a very flexible schedule! I have owned and cared for a range of dog breeds, from cocker spaniels to German shepherds. I even had a Great Dane for several years! No mess is too big! I’ve administered medications and love getting outdoors and would love to walk or drop into your pet! I adore cats and I have an American bobtail cat called Atlas 🐈‍⬛ My daily routine is incredibly flexible as I am currently working on my PhD! I pick my hours and I can work around any pet sitting/walking needs! I am a gentle person who loves to give pets and go for walks and (if willing) give belly rubs! I look after a very content male cat daily (who follows me around the house).

About: My beloved Summer (now deceased) was an absolute monster when she was a puppy, so I can handle it all. When she was a senior, I had no problem picking her up (60 lbs) for car rides and for bedtime (she slept with me), and took care of her when her stitches popped. It takes a lot to faze me. In high school and college, I was first aid certified and still keep a first aid kit on me at all times, so should something happen, I can get your sweet dog wrapped up if need be. My favorite activity for getting dogs' energy out is taking them to a fenced in soccer field and kicking a ball for them to run after. I currently have a 6 (ish) year old rescue named Charlotte, whom I’ve had to train as an adult dog. She’s the complete opposite of Summer: very vocal and has no interest in balls but adores sticks. Every morning, afternoon, and evening. Walks, meal times, and play time for your dog (or dogs) and my dog as well. Caring for a dog is priority #1. I’m easily Google-able and have worked for many public officials who can vouch for me. Each morning, I walk Charlotte before hitting the gym and again in the evening. I’m currently in-between jobs, so I have full availability for the next few weeks. After that, I will likely be working remotely and will be flexible. It varies by the needs of the pet and his/her family. Walks, playing in the yard, etc. are common. If your pet has a certain routine, I’m pleased to accommodate.

About: I have grown up with animals. Dogs and cats are at the top of the list. I've been around domesticated animals all of my life. My first kittens at my young age was two siames kittens Who had 2 litters of kittens as well as having to toy poodle dogs, that had two litters of puppies twice. I must have been about 10 so it was from then that I have been loving & caring for fur babies.. Though I do not Own a dog or a cat right now, but look forward to owning some in my future.. I currently own a guinea pig. I just recently experienced the end of a pug/fur baby end of life. I took care of the pug for his last six months of life. Soon after that I boarded a beautiful pitbull for the weekend of mother's day. So to book with me, i'm sure I will have you covered.. Because I am home during the day I am a great fit for you fur baby. I love on your Fur baby while you are on occasion or just I'll have an a fun day. Because I am located across from freedom park in James City County, Williamsburg. I feel i'm in a great place to be able to get them out to go for walks and just run and play.

About: Hi, my name is Mackenzie, and I love being outside and seeing happy dogs on walks! I grew up with a dog that I loved dearly, and enjoyed nothing more than spending time inside and outside with him! Since his passing, I have gotten a little over a year of experience petsitting and dog-walking, and am looking to expand and help more families keep their fur babies happy! Whether that be by dropping by for a walk and some tummy rubs, or hanging out while you’re on vacation, I am ready and excited to help out! I’m a high energy person who loves playing with and caring for dogs; please contact me if you think I could be a good pet for your best friend! I have also become a big cat person in my personal life! I have cats of my own and I love them very much. They both have some minor medical conditions that require prescription feeding and monitoring, so I am used to sensitive kitties who need a little extra love. I would love to help care for cats in the area, so other cat people can travel and vacation and have time away from home knowing that their furbaby is well cared for and loved in their absence! I work from home and have a lot of flexibility with my schedule, so I am available throughout the day for feeding, walking, playing, and relaxing with your pets! I am very detail oriented and can ensure that the care your pet receives from me mimics the care they receive from you, to keep your furbaby comfortable and relaxed while you're away!

About: I've taken care of animals of all kinds, from dogs and cats to chickens, ducks, and goats, since I was 13. In my senior year of high school, I took a veterinary science class where I did check-ups and grooming on all sorts of animals. (Dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, etc.) I feed, walk, and medicate animals for coworkers, family, and friends just about everytime I'm home from school! I plan on working part-time, so I will have limited times during the day to walk your dogs, but I will have plenty of time to go over and feed, medicate, play, empty litter, etc., after or before my shifts! We've got a super big yard, so plenty of room to run around and play. My doggies at home use an electric fence, but I'm used to walking other dogs on a leash, no problem! Additionally, my pups get along well with other dogs, so no issues in regard to company and territory!

About: Hey there, my name is Kiana! I am an avid dog lover, that has over 15+ years of experience with animals. 2 years out of my experience had been working for an amazing animal clinic, who have taught me a lot and how to care for our animals. Our animals are just like children, they are our fur babies! My love for animals helps me bond with every animal I meet and treat them with the upmost affection, respect and love. Being a past veterinary assistant has showed me different things to look for if an animal isn’t feeling well and how to respond. Having this experience your animal is in safe hands and will be taken great care of. I enjoy creating new bonds with animals and their Hooman! ❤️ (Last name change "Glem") I am currently working with my family, my hours are normally in the PT range but can be subjected to change. Mon-Fri 8-4 however working in my family business I can make adjustments to my schedule as needed. I live with my fiance (Glem), our almost 2 yr old rescue & 1 roommate in our 3 story townhouse. We are an end corner house so we do have a decent-sized unfenced grass area. Where our house is located in our neighborhood, directly in front of our house is a park with lots of great space to walk, run & play. Where we live is very dog & kid-friendly.

About: I have always been a pet lover, owning seven of them myself. I always enjoy the company of animals and understand if you aren't always able to be able to cater to them like you want to. That's where I can help! Contact me and set up an appoinent and I'll take care of your pet, we can work around any schedule you may have. Animals should always be looked at like family and that's why taking care of them is a huge commitment to me. You should appreciate your best friend, dogs and cats (animals) have feelings just as much as we humans do. Thy generally experience every feeling we go through, whether it’s love or neglect, hunger or anger, jelousy or comfort. No maytter what they always want that companionship .
