Pet care experience
Perfer 4 legged babies to the 2 legged kind any day of the week. ;) Have a chocolate lab of my own. I believe pets (especially dogs and cats) are part of the family. My family owns Cresthill Kennels so as an extension of that, I began pet (dogs, cats, chickens, small furries ...and not so furries) and house sitting on the side 5 years ago. I have clean background checks, both local and national. I have taken the red cross pet first aid class. I have dealt with insulin injections, subcutaneous fluids, whelping puppies, and emergency situations. For dog walking and pop-ins, I prefer to stick with a 10 mile radius (Thornburg and Ladysmith areas). However, for actual house-sits, I can drive as far south as Richmond, east to Hampton, north/west to Manassas. Anything closer to DC will be extra. If in doubt, please just ask.
Reviews
Holly took such great care of my pets. It was like I never left. My house was clean. My pets didn't feel any anxiety about us being gone. I appreciate her professionalism and care.
Holly is very responsible and a wonderful pet sitter. She has watched our 70 lbs. Border Collie/Boxer mix for 3 weeks a year for the last 4 years and watched our home when needed. She took wonderful care of our beloved family pet and home. Holly also checked our mail to make it didn't pile up while she pet sitted. I would recommend Holly to anyone she is reliable and trustworthy. When we do plan our family vacations or out of town family functions we alsways call Holly first.

Information Holly B. would like to know about your pet
I have a checklist I go through and prefer to do a house visit so you and your dog can get to know me before an actual sit. I take notes on their routine, feeding schedule and habits, your vet information, emergency contacts, etc. If first have to pick a breed, I would have to say Labrador because that is what we breed and that is what I have, but each dog has their own personality so it's more about individual dogs. Yes, I have my favorites, and they are not always labs. ;)
A typical day
If there is a dog park near you, I have a dog sling in the back of my car and can take them. Alternatively, you can tell me your normal routine.
