“Heather once again did a great job taking care of 6 kitties for the weekend. She always leaves detailed writeups and photos, and replies promptly to messages. Will definitely book her again - thanks Heather!”
“Dana watched our three little monsters again for a week. We knew they were in good hands! She was communicative, checked in on a regular basis, and took great care of them all. Will definitely book again!”
About: I would be a fantastic pick because I have been both an owner and caregiver. I’ve owned 3 dogs, I’ve cared for over a dozen dogs from friends and other family members, and I’ve had further experience volunteering at a rescue since 2023. I think it will fit very well especially for any people who need pet care that work overnight, work late, tending to their children’s post school activities, etc. I have a very flexible schedule that makes me available for potential clients. Every home will be on a case by case basis. I’m flexible with any condition of the clients home. Unfortunately due to my current living conditions I am unable to welcome pets in my home for the time being.
About: I love all animals big and small! I have a variety of experience. I grew up taking care of a Rottweiler and currently have a pit and two cats. I have worked in the past and consistently cared for a deaf and diabetic dog to include administering insulin. I have volunteered at shelters, fostered numerous dogs to include a deaf dog with seizures, interned at a wildlife rehab center for a year, and worked at the Philadelphia Zoo taking care of the goats yard. I worked for 3 years at VIP pet care holding the animals, administering shots , microchips, blood draws and supervising the clinics. I love hiking and anything outdoors so walking your pup would be great for both your pup and myself! 🙂 I’m currently working full time and another part time job so am currently only offering walking services to work around my busy schedule. My schedule varies each week. I have a fenced in yard with one dog and two cats. At this time I am only offering walking services and may consider in home care in the future.
“Kristen was great! She gave me regular updates and took pictures of my cats so I knew how they were doing. It was such a relief to know that they were well taken care of and in good hands while I was away. Even my shy cat warmed up to her!”
“I do not know where to start! Hayley went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable leaving my two cats and bearded dragons in her hands. She sent me pictures, txts and snaps everyday to make me smile. If there was a question or “issue” she would contact me right away. Hayley is by far one of the best pet sitters Iv ever had and would recommend her to anyone with any type of animals.”
“Logan did an exceptional job taking care of our cat! Typically our cat will hide when we are gone and never be seen by the caregiver, but Logan took the time to earn her trust and she loved him. He sent pictures everyday so we could see how well she was doing. Logan also took care of our cat’s medical needs so we came home to a healthy, happy cat! He also took care of our many bird feeders and birdbath. Definitely the best pet caregiver we have ever had!! Thanks, Logan!”
“Gabriella checks on my 3-month-old miniature Australian Shepherd puppy while I’m at work. She does a great job updating me and is always on time. she has very flexible and last-minute availability which I appreciate.”
About: ive been taken care of animals since i was young. I offer to care for the pets so the adults can have a night out. animals of all ages, puppies-kittens to elderly animals. i love watching each pet grow and have fun. i learn a lot from them as they do from me. and depending on weather ill travel with them to a local park to walk or run around without them running off. i am currently in the military one weekend a month and two weeks in the summer but it never stopped me from my passion of helping out when i get the chance to. holidays i can work with. a certain holiday is very special to me. I cant wait to work with animals and love it every day make sure each pet goes outside and gets there paws and bodies moving so they don't get stiff. feed them according to a schedule/ routine. pills will be giving according to there owners care guide. bring them to the vets or emergency vets if giving permission to do so. let the pet come to me and let them get to know my sent before i rush into to pets. talk with the owners to know where there items are and what is expected of me while they are in my care. lots of love and cuddles are important along with rewards and letting the pet have there space to relax.
About: Animals are my happy place. I previously worked at a doggy daycare with breeds of all snouts and sizes. There is no dog that doesn’t deserve our love and patience. I have experience in boarding, walking, training, administering meds, and keeping dogs busy and entertained. Your pup will be treated like family and your mind will be put at ease. I am a full time caregiver, so I have a flexible schedule and can work with whatever is best for you and your furry friend. I am trained in boarding and in helping keep a pup busy until bedtime so they are fully stimulated and as happy as can be.
About: I have 3 years dog walking experience. I am the person my friends and family calls when they go out of town or on vacation to take care of their pets, or I watch them from my home. I will be starting my dog training certification in the fall. I am very caring, organized, and hard working. I am a stay at home mom, my days are free and especially when school starts up again I have full days open. Not having a regular 9-5 gives me the flexibility to do this. I treat every pet I walk or watch as they are my own. I believe that our pets are just another family member with a lot more hair. I make sure everything is done as best it can be and that the pet is happy and healthy.
About: I've had experience with taking care of cats my entire life. My family currently has seven cats, including one with diabetes that we have to give insulin. I am currently working for a flower farm and I'll check in on your fur babies when I am done with work and on Sundays! I will check in on your pets to make sure they're healthy, clean litterboxes and any messes, and can administer medication if it's needed. I will also give them a lot of loving :)
“Mandee watched our cat Spaghetti while we were on vacation and I couldn't have asked for a better person for the job. I received updates and pictures daily and she was quick to answer any questions I had.”
About: Hello! My name is Grace and I am a total dog and cat person! I have been walking, sitting, and boarding for more than four years. I am a former teacher who is now a stay at home mom. I have gained experience with pets through my employment at Dale City Animal Hospital in Virginia for about a year. I have been around dogs most of my life. Whether big or small, energetic or quiet, I have experience with many different dog personalities. I also have experience giving medicine, insulin, or allergy pills to dogs and cats. I have experience with dog sitting, dog boarding, and dog walking. I am a mom to a 5cyear old, 2 year old, 2 month old and 1 kitty. I am home full time and am able to accept borders/drop off doggy daycare in my home. For dog walks, I am available in the evenings during the week and flexible during the weekends. I pay close attention to detail and follow any direction of taking care of your dog/routines. For boarders I have a back yard and we go on walks often around the neighborhood!
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was a young age. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and play with pets. I always come with a treat handy. I'm currently a teacher, with summer here I will be free most days to take care of your pet and spend some extra time with them. I have two friendly dogs, and one lovable cat all under the age of 5. Even if you have a fenced in yard, I will still go outside with your pet and play with them while they do their business. If you do not have a fenced in yard, I will walk you pet around the yard on a leash. Safety is my ultimate goal. Cleaning litter boxes and making sure food is refilled will always be done.
About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. I’ve spent time providing quality animal care for dogs and cats for multiple clients over the years. I’m currently working full-time. I am looking to fulfill a passion of mine, by being with animals more often. I’m looking forward to becoming more active. I have a half acre of land for dogs to roam on. I live on a private drive which makes walks easy and safe, as traffic is limited. I have plenty of space for a crate, if needed.

John M.
“John has an exceptional dedication and genuine affection for animals. I've seen this firsthand in his care for my Australian Shepard, Sidney. While Sidney can sometimes be a handful, John has taken time to work with her and teach her new commands as well as reinforce ones we have been working on. Sidney is always very happy to see John, which always puts my mind at ease and makes me feel confident in his care. John's commitment to animals has always extended beyond his own pets or the pets of his loved ones. He volunteers regularly at a local pet shelter, Helping Hounds, where he helps care for and socialize animals in need. His reliable presence at the shelter over the past few years and his willingness to devote his own time to help animals find their forever homes speaks volumes about his deep compassion for animals. John's dedication to both Sidney and the shelter animals is a true testament to his loving and responsible nature as a pet caregiver.”

Katrina T.Star Sitter
“Katrina T is a great person to take care of anyones' dogs or cats. Kat has been sitting with animals for at least ten years. She has house sat dogs and cats for friends (at one time she house sat for two months while the couple was in Florida). Kat is prompt, keeps records of what the dog (s) was doing during the day or on the walk, and in the case of the couple who went to Florida she made sure the house and restored it back to a pristine condition. Katrina provides safe and loving care to all animals, including guinea pigs, and fish. Without a doubt I would recommend her to anyone.”
Sam R.
“Sam is one of the biggest animal lovers I know. As a vegan Sam sees every animal as an individual being to be loved and treated with respect. I haven’t met a dog that doesn’t love Sam and I have even seen Sam teach cats to do tricks like sit, spin, give paw, and speak. Which I think says a lot about Sam’s patience and ability to work with animals. You won’t be disappointed with Sam!”

“Grace loves animals and has had the responsibility of taking care of a family dog for many years. She is attentive to the dog’s needs and schedule. She loves to take her dog to the dog park to interact with other dogs. Grace is the person responsible for bathing her dog-which is not an easy task for dog that hates his bath! She is calm and would be able to learn how to best help a dog fit into a new situation-a skill that would be key when sitting or boarding a dog.”
