Pet Sitting Malvern Gardens

“Lee was very hands on and attentive with my kitties while I was away! He followed the detailed instructions and went above and beyond to clean up some accidents. He even learned how to give my kitty an insulin shot and was very communicative with me. Thanks Lee!”

“Shelby was great! She was available last minute to stop by to feed our cat, and was very professional and had great communication! Highly recommend and will be using her in the future.”

About: I am very available in the summertime (I am a teacher), and I am available on day on Saturdays and Sundays. During the week, I am able to travel to your pet in the morning and evening (before and after work). On weekends and on school breaks I am very flexible. I currently am a teacher, so I am available morning and evening on weekdays, and I am available all day on weekends. I am also available all the time in the summer. I am very willing to come take care of your pets at your house. I am very welcoming to all behaviors and I will follow all expectations perfectly, as well as take care of your animal with as much love as you would!

“Thane was great with Rat! They took the time to understand his personality and routine during our meet and greet which put me at ease. I’d definitely hire them again :)”

About: I am a recent graduate from The University of Virginia who grew up in an animal-loving home. I am an attentive pet sitter and dog walker with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and in-home care, focusing on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining their normal routines. I’ve grown up caring for animals and currently have a friendly Bichon and two cats of my own, so I understand how important trust, consistency, and individualized care are. My experience includes daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, basic grooming, litter box care, and administering simple medications when needed. I’m especially patient with shy, senior, or anxious pets and always take a calm, respectful approach. I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available for daytime walks and visits, evenings, and weekends, and I can accommodate pets who need multiple check-ins or extra attention throughout the day. I take pride in being dependable, communicative, and attentive to detail. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure pet parents feel confident and at ease while they’re away. I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available for daytime visits, walks, and extended care, as well as evenings and weekends. Because my schedule is flexible, I’m able to accommodate pets who need consistent routines, multiple check-ins, or extra attention throughout the day. I live in a calm, pet-friendly home with one friendly Bichon and two cats who are well-socialized around other animals. I carefully supervise all interactions and can easily separate pets if needed. I follow each pet’s routine closely, prioritize cleanliness and safety, and communicate regularly with pet parents to ensure peace of mind while they’re away.

“Kathryn was super kind, communicative, and pleasant. Highly recommend.”

“Abigail is awesome. It’s tough for me to leave Max, but she provides details on the check in. This helps me feel more comfortable, knowing he is in good hands with someone who cares.”

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: As the owner of high energy pets, I am an expert at walks and enrichment. I love animals and am often the first person my friends and family ask to watch their pets when they go out of town. I have a flexible schedule and can be available to care for your pets! On weekends, I am available for petting sitting or long walkies. I have a fenced yard and a neighborhood that is good for walks. I have two pets of my own, a service dog dropout and a cat that likes dogs more than people. I am also willing to drive to your home to care for your pets.

“I had Grant take care of my two kitties. He followed my directions to a tee and sent me updates of how my cats were doing, along with photos. I feel safe and reaasured with Grant taking care of my cats. I will be using his services in the future.”

Eric S.

“Mary watched our two cats (drop in visits) while we were out of town for a wedding. They were well taken care of while we were away, with nightly updates and photos. We would certainly use Mary again in the future!”

Josh M.

“Grace was awesome! She was so helpful with toby, always sending me picture updates of her drop in with Toby. I will definitely be reaching out to her again with any help I need with Toby:-)”

About: I have taken care of dogs large and small since I was 12. Additionally, I have experience with more aggressive breeds of dogs. I have had my dog Narcissa Rose for almost 3 years, since she was a puppy, and so I have ample experience with puppies, training, and medication administration (both topically and orally)! I am a firm believer that our fur babies deserve the best care possible, as it’s their first time in this life as well and we have to be their advocate! I have a full time job, as well as a business. However, I am fortunate that I am an early riser, so early morning walks and visits are never an issue. My evenings are relatively free and even when I have plans, I ensure to make time so pets are cared for properly. I have a fenced in patio space as well as a neighborhood dog park that would make any furry friend happy! I crate my own dog occasionally, and so am no stranger to the need for it and am comfortable enforcing that with your pup if requested. I have had experiences myself of sitters not paying attention to my pets while in my home and so I take it very seriously that if I’m in your home, my attention is focused 100% on your pet(s)!

About: Hi there! My name is Genevieve! I worked at the Richmond SPCA for 4 years. My two pitties at home (Nola and Brick) are leash reactive. With my own dogs and experience of working at an animal shelter I’ve seen almost everything. I have experience with medication administration- injectable, sub q fluids, and oral. I also have experience with behaviors like reactivity, resource guarding, mouthiness, fearfulness, ect. I take a fear free, positive reinforcement approach. My goal is to make sure your pets needs are being met so they feel safe and you feel comfortable and at ease. I have experience with special needs cats as well! I quit my job and went back to school! I can care for your pets before 9:00 am and after 11 am Monday and Wednesday-Friday. I can care for your pet on Tuesdays from 1 pm onwards. I have experience with homes without backyards and am willing to do a walk around the block or whatever it might be for a quick potty break. I always go outside to my fenced in backyard with my dogs to make sure everyone is safe and will do so with yours. Your cats will be kept strictly indoors!

“Danielle was fantastic for when we needed a sitter last minute. Very thorough, great communication/ updates, and took great care of our dog. Would recommend and use Danielle again,”

Andrew Viglione &.

“Gabriel was awesome to work with! He was professional, punctual, and knowledgeable. Most importantly, he was great with our anxious dog and even helped care for our home by watering plants and checking the mail. I cannot recommend him enough! Anyone who books with him should consider themselves luck. We’ll definitely book with him again”

Micah R.

“Danyelle always takes great care of my cats! They are happy to see her and I’m happy to know that they are in good hands. Her communication is reliable and prompt and of course she always includes pictures.”
