“She is excellent! I highly recommend her for dog sitting. She kept in communication with me throughout the entire dog sitting. She sent me pictures of cuddling with my dogs which I really appreciated. She also took good care of my home while I was gone. She is awesome and I would recommend her to everyone.”

“I am so thankful to have Eyowyn care for my dogs. It was the first time leaving my Velcro pets. She worked patiently with us when we had last minute changes. She was able to calm them and they enjoyed her visits. Her confidence in being able to handle the situation allowed me to relax and enjoy my weekend away. I am so happy she will be in the area for another year!”

About: As a true animal lover who misses her pets while away at school, I’m excited to offer hands-on care for a wide range of animal companions. I’ve raised cats, dogs, rabbits, and chickens, and I also work closely with the animal lab at the Science Museum of Virginia in my hometown of Richmond. There, I care for reptiles, amphibians, fish, and even arachnids, giving me both the compassion and confidence to care for exotic pets of all kinds. I’m a full time student at JMU, with classes M-Th, I am offering all day/as needed care on weekends starting Friday after 1pm. I am open to drop-ins and walks after 6pm weekdays, except Tuesday. Being that I’m a student, I do not offer pet care from my home, however I always have a mindful approach to offering in-home pet care for clients. Don’t hesitate to communicate concerns or boundaries regarding

“I'm almost afraid to leave an honest review. BECAUSE, I WANT TO BE ABLE TO BOOK HIM AGAIN! And I don't want him to be too busy. He did a wonderful job with our dog and our house. Saxon got all the exercise he needed, then apparently slept the afternoon away. Our home looked exactly how we left it. Maybe even better. Finn came for a meet and greet with Saxon and asked great questions about what Saxon likes and does not do, or should no do. We were very pleased and would definitely book him again.”

“Abigail is attentive, warm and friendly. She asked the right questions about Ripley, our 11 year old Shichon, and our home where she will home sit. Ripley is very cautious and over protective. But when she met Abigail for the first time, she immediately warmed up to her. We will rebook with Abigail again!”

About: Hi, I’m Amber! I’m a lifelong animal lover based in Harrisonburg, VA, offering dependable care for dogs and cats of all breeds and ages. Whether your pet is a high-energy pup or a calm senior cat, I adapt to their unique needs and routines to keep them happy and stress-free while you're away. I offer dog walking, house sitting, and drop-in visits—all in your home, where your pet feels safest. I work remotely and is I do need to travel for work it is always in the area and I know in advance, so I’m able to be present and flexible when caring for your pet. My approach is simple: I follow your pet’s usual schedule—walks, meals, meds, naps, even bedtime cuddles—so they feel secure and loved. Your pet is my priority when they’re in my care, and I treat every visit like I’m caring for my own. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet—I’d love to get to know you and your pet! I work from home with a flexible schedule and can usually adjust my day around your pet’s needs.

You can count on regular updates, photos, and honest communication while you’re away, so you have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring hands.

About: I love animals, especially doggos! I grew up around dogs, and I have been house and dog/cat sitting since I was a teenager (20ish years). I will ensure your animals are cared for, comfortable, and loved! I primarily work remotely, which means I’m usually available during the day to check in, except when I’m staffing events at work. On weekends, I’m quite flexible and can easily check in with our fur babies as often as needed! Unfortunately, I can only provide care, sitting, and walking at your home. My apartment does not allow pets at this time, but I have a flexible schedule!

“Madisyn was very accommodating and our pups were well cared for while we were gone - as was the house! We’ll be reaching out to her again the next time we have to travel.”

“Estefania was wonderful. Hektor, my dog, seemed very happy and she was very conscientious about his needs. She was great with communication and took great care of my house”

About: I have loved all animals since I could remember. I have been dog sitting/walking for years and am known to be very reliable and dependable! I move in on August 15th and I am a fall sport athlete. With that being said, I will be very busy from August to beginning of November. But, please do not hesitate to reach out. I will try my best to work around my schedule to provide the best care. I have one dog at home. I feed him twice a day, walk him, and let him out multiple times a day whenever he scratches at the door. I would keep your home clean and organized whenever I care for your pup!
