Pet care experience

Dependable Pet Care in Virginia

As a stay-at-home mom and lifelong animal lover, I have experience caring for dogs, cats, puppies, and senior pets. I currently care for my own dogs and cats and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, administering basic medications, cleaning up accidents, crate training routines, and providing lots of attention and affection. Since I’m home most of the day, I can offer flexible scheduling and plenty of supervision. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

Schedule

I’m a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the day. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting on weekdays and weekends. Because I’m home most of the time, I can give pets plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and playtime while their owners are away.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, exercise, and take potty breaks. I currently have friendly pets of my own and always supervise introductions to ensure everyone is comfortable. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and crate preferences. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, safety, cleanliness, and communication are my priorities. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

Pets

A typical day

Every pet is different, so I tailor the day to their personality and routine. We’ll enjoy supervised playtime in my fenced yard, potty breaks, walks if requested, enrichment activities, plenty of affection, and lots of rest. I send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

Please let me know about your pet’s feeding schedule, medications, allergies, favorite toys, commands they know, and any fears or behaviors such as anxiety, escaping, resource guarding, or dog selectivity. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable, secure, and loved during their stay.
