House Sitting in Mollusk

“Shemoy was absolutely awesome with my boy. She visited him before the day and developed a good connection and interacted with him like she had known him forever. She was incredibly loving with him and I was more comfortable that I thought I would be for our first time away!”

“Linda stayed in our hotel room with my old girl while I visited Colonial Williamsburg. Pepper can have separation anxiety. I sure having Linda to cuddle next to kept her calm and comfortable. Many thanks!”

“Leah was wonderful! Our pups loved her! This is the first time we’ve had a pet sitter, so we were a little nervous but she eased our worries. She was very prompt with messaging and gave us lots of updates! We will absolutely book her again!”

Sydney M.

“Alex saved the day and the dogs were happy when we got home. She was great about communication and sent picks while we were gone. So nice to nt have to worry. Thanks see you soon.”

“Karolina was amazing from start to finish! She cared for our three dogs—Minnie, Daisy, and Penny—and our cat Bean while we were away in Florida. Two of our dogs are extremely shy and usually take a long time to warm up to anyone, but Karolina was so patient and kind with them. She didn’t rush the process; instead, she spent time just being present and letting them get used to her on their terms. Karolina also kept us updated the whole time with pictures and messages, which helped ease my mind while we were away.”

“Everything went very smoothly with Victoria taking care of our 14 year old dog and 4 year old cat. The request was made just days before we had to leave town for a family situation. Victoria was prompt responding to my initial request. She arrived promptly for a meet and greet, our dog loved her and our cat actually came out of hiding the second day and hung out with her! Victoria immediately put our minds to rest about using a new pet sitter so last minute. She kept us updated on how the kids were doing while we were away and left our house looking perfect when we arrived home. We will definitely contact her when we travel again.”

“Absolutely fantastic and reliable. Michael is reliable and loving. We can finally enjoy vacation knowing our cat is completely taken care of.”

About: Responsible, dependable, have three large dogs and two cats of my own, enjoy making sure they are taken care of and well loved. My retirement dream is to have a senior dog sanctuary, love to get out and walk. I work in healthcare. Growing up we also had dogs and they went with us everywhere because they were part of the family. My three crazy pups now are rescues from the shelter, it amazes me no wanted them, shelter pups make the best companions. I will make sure to clean up after them and that they have plenty of fresh water after their walks if hired. For longer visits I would prefer my own house as long as everyone gets along I currently work fulltime Monday thru Friday, available on weekends and evenings. Other times can be discussed. If able can do check ins on unscheduled dates if you are running late getting home Provide sanitary clean up, my yard is fenced in, will not leave unattended in the yard, lots of toys to play with in the yard.

“Jessica was wonderful! I came back home to a dog who’d been well taken care of while I was away and a house that was almost exactly as I’d left it. Jessica was also incredibly communicative and I could not be happier with her services while I was away!”

About: Hello! My name is Alyssa and I am a 20 year old college student remotely studying Psychology and Criminal Justice. I’ve had dogs and a cat since I was young and was always held accountable to take care of them! I took a Veterinary Science class in High School and dealt with animals on a daily during this course (Bunnies and Puppies.) I have recently owned hamsters and fish as well that were 100% my responsibility. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and have 4 years of paid experience with pet sitting for neighbors. Animals deserve the world and I love to make a difference in their lives even if they don’t understand it :) I am also willing to negotiate pricing based off your animals energy/need for attention/etc. Please reach out to me with any additional questions and I’d be happy to answer! I am currently a college student who is taking online courses to work on getting my degree. Other than daily assignments, I have no other daily commitments and will be available 90% of the time, other than my planned unavailability on my calendar! I have a large front and back yard with plenty of room to play. I do have an indoor/outdoor cat but she keeps to herself and is never a bother. I could easily keep her separated from your pet. If in your home, I will be sure to take all the steps you request and go above and beyond to ensure you and your animals are comfortable.

“Sarah was wonderful with our spoiled kitty and dog. Took Sofie swimming and continued to send photos and update us throughout the week.”

About: I’ve never lived a day in my life without having a dog by my side, and I can confidently say that I can’t imagine it any other way. From puppies to our older friends, I love them just like they’re my own. After many years spent with different breeds, sizes, and ages, I am also well versed in pet first aid and common health conditions. I am especially fond of senior dogs and would be honored to care for them. I have recently begun a full time job in Richmond but still petsit often since I truly enjoy it. My schedule best suits check ins with pets in the mornings or evenings. You will never have to worry about how your baby is doing. Because of my own personal (and very anxiety inducing!) experiences with being away from my boy, I am very diligent about keeping pet parents in the loop.

“Absolutely amazing with the dogs. Kept us up to date with them and went above and beyond. Would recommend to anyone! Will definitely be hiring again.”

Casey M.

“Kellee took great care of Peluche while we were in DC overnight. He was a happy boy! We are looking forward to having her back to care for him in February.”

Linda U.

“Nicole was excellent! Both of my cats LOVED her. Mimi was feral and normally won’t come out of hiding for most people, but Nicole had her playing and snuggling !! She sent pics and/or videos every day and made me feel completely safe and comfortable that she was watching my home and cats. I’d give 10 stars if I could! Thanks Nicole!!”

Tracey B.

“Morgan was great with Frankie! She made sure she got some extra love while we were away. She also kept the house clean and was respectful. We will definitely book Morgan again.”

Courtney P.

“Lindalyn rose to the challenge of my dogs...a 17 yo, a 9 yo and a 3yo crazy puppy. She was very flexible when I had to change the day due to the weather. Her dogs were lovely and got a long with my crazies. She is welcome in my home anytime and I will definitely be calling her again!”

Cindy S.

“Melanie was very communicative and my dogs seemed to love her!”

About: I have experience with all animal types including dogs, cats, horses, livestock, birds, pocket pets and some reptiles. I am a licensed vet tech so I am also comfortable medicating animals that need it. I have 7 dogs, 6 cats, a leopard gecko and several chickens, all of which are friendly with other animals. I will only accept animals into my home to be boarded that are dog-friendly. I will treat your pets as if they are my own no matter if they are being boarded or just going for a walk. I do work full time but I am able to make drop in visits around my work schedule. Please feel free to ask any questions regarding your pets and their needs while you are working, vacationing, etc. I can care for pets early before work, mid-day and late after work. On weekends my schedule can be more flexible depending on what activities I have going on. Any dogs that come into my home will be treated as if they were my own. I have a fenced backyard for the dogs to play in. Boarding dogs will have their own room to hang out in.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12. Neighbors and family have relied one me to keep their loved one safe. Animals were always my passion. I currently work full time at a bank but I get long lunch breaks and I will see your pet in the morning and evening. I always make sure they have everything they need! I will always make sure your pet is in a safe environment. I will get to know their likes and dislikes and never put them in an unsafe situation.
