“Sonnet is a bit of a puller and she did great with her. Sonic came back nice and tired and got some really good exercise! We'll definitely be using her again. She did great with my big dog!”

“Raquel stayed with our dog over the weekend and everything was wonderful. She was very communicative and took great care of our pup and house.”

“Our pups are our babies, so trusting strangers with them can be difficult, but Erica has made this process extremely easy and stress-free. We could not be more grateful for her attention to detail, expertise and love for Jarvis and Opie during their walks! She has been extremely thorough with updates and looking after their individual needs each time she stops by. We highly recommend Erica for any and all of your fur baby's needs!! ☺️?”

About: I have always had a love and passion for animals since I was a little girl. I started in elementary school by offering to walk my neighbors' dogs just so I could have the opportunity to play with them. Over the years, I have gained even more love and experience in properly caring for all animals as if they were my own. I am a student at JMU who is looking for something part time. I have a lot of free time in the afternoon and most weekends which I would love to spend my time with your wonderful animals! I currently live in an apartment building but is willing to take them in, take them to dog parks, and go on long walks. I am comfortable and flexible on what I would need to do to ensure the happiness and safety for your pets!

“Dawson was fantastic! Kayn is a german shepherd prone to pulling and being a lot to take care of. He listened and took notes of all my suggestions for how to handle him and situations you might be put into while on the walk and he handled him perfectly and Kayn returned home ready for a nap. Dawson is great with dogs giving them lots of pets and attention! Kayn already adores him and is excited for his next walk with Dawson.”

“Angelina is super great with benji! She updated us with pics throughout the walk. Would definitely recommend”

“Melissa was so patience, gentle and kind to my American Bulldog while I was away at the beach for the week. She took things slowly with him, understanding that he's not trusting of all humans. In turn, Otis warmed up to her very quickly, which made my vacation so much more relaxing! She made sure he had everything he needed, and gave him lots of praise and love. I cannot recommend her highly enough!!”

Jill S.

“So glad I found Anu. She’s very kind and respectful and Archie likes her so I know she’s a good person :) My new go to whenever I need help with Archie while I’m working.”

About: I've had pets for nearly my entire life, and I've become a true animal lover as a result. I care for animals with the compassion and patience that they deserve. I have years of experience caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors. Dogs, cats, exotic birds, and reptiles are among the animals I've had the pleasure of caring for. I work on a schedule that I make myself, so generally speaking there is no time that I can't make work to take care of your pet! I take your trust in me to come to your home very seriously, so I like to make sure that I'm transparent and open with exactly how I care for your pets. I will clean up any mess, give them any medicine necessary, and do anything else necessary to make you comfortable with me being there!

About: I’ve worked with other dogs before and genuinely enjoy making them happy. I also love observing how well I get along with them and forming connections with them. It fits perfectly because I work with dogs every day, and I love coming back to hang out with them every chance I get. I love making connections. I ensure that they have access to certain things and refrain from feeding them anything that could make them ill. Additionally, I provide them with information about the activities they can engage in to prevent them from falling sick.

About: I’ve grown up with pets all my life, and can’t imagine life without a furry companion or two. Or three. Or a hundred. But I can’t have a hundred critters in my apartment, so I have to fill those critter-shaped gaps with YOUR fur babies! I have 20 years of experience with cats, and about 8 years experience with dogs. Over the years, I have fulfilled multiple house and pet-sitting gigs spanning as long as two weeks, or as short as a single walk around the block. I am happy to learn how to administer medications or provide reasonable levels of support for any animal’s medical or behavioral needs. I’m currently looking to fill gaps in my schedule left by a sudden reduction in hours from my regular work. Because it is hopefully a short term issue, I’m putting my name out there to help my community and their pets during my newfound availability. My schedule is pretty flexible. As a renter, I cannot offer my own spaces at this time. However, I am more than happy to drive out to care for your pets at your home! With instructions communicated to me, I am happy to water plants, rotate lights, adjust blinds, etc. as well.

“Erin has provided daily mid-day walks for my senior beagle mix, Amigo, for more than a month now. She is utterly reliable, punctual, organized, friendly, and simply a joy to work with. Erin is kind and affectionate my dog, and he adores her. She has a wealth of experience in caring for pets and gave me great ideas that I hadn't thought of for making things run smoothly, such as getting a lock box for the house key as well as advice on comforting a dog who's alarmed by thunder and other loud noises. She is a smart, polished professional and the ideal person to hire to care for your beloved pet.”
