Dog Sitting in Newport News

“Angela took excellent care of my cat while I was out of town. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly attentive to my cat’s needs. I really appreciated the updates and peace of mind knowing everything was handled so well while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat and everything in great shape. I’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

About: With 20+ years of personal experience and 5+ professionally, I'm Pet CPR certified, trained to give shots, and care for all pets - furry, scaled or pocket sized. I work from home full-time, so I have flexibility. I've boarded in-home and am comfortable with your-home overnights. I'm happy for lunch-time dog walks (depending on distance), or travel visits while you're away. I have a hedged in yard, but also have a lead line so they can run free. Lots of love and attention. Ample potty breaks and treats (if allowed). I have a small dog, who loves everyone and a skittish cat that probably won't be seen.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I have spent the last 3 years volunteering with Hope for Life Rescue and Penninsula Regional Animal Shelter, working hands on with pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments, from bottle feeding kittens and puppies to caring for senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m the go-to person for family and friends whenever they need someone reliable and loving to care for their pets, whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or overnight boarding. I have experience administering medications, handling nervous or shy animals, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for like family. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, and I treat every animal as if they were my own, with patience, compassion, and plenty of love. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because animals are already a big part of my life. I volunteer regularly with a local rescue and animal shelter, foster when needed, and I also run my own business from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and boarding. I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise, and my own pets (two cats and one dog) are all friendly, well socialized, and up to date on their vaccines. My dog, Mercury, just turned two and is full of energy. She loves meeting other dogs and enjoys playdates, which makes her a great companion for social pups who enjoy interaction and play. My goal is always to create a calm, trustworthy environment where both pets and pet parents feel comfortable and confident.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, birds, turtles, and other kinds of animals since I was 10.

We have a fenced in backyard and video surveillance of both the front and back of the house to ensure the safety and security of your pet. My husband and I are both experienced in pet care and love to play with dogs of all ages and sizes.

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, playtime, litter maintenance, and providing attentive, loving care to ensure comfort happiness and safety I am currently working part time, but I also have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable and attentive dog and cat sitting services. I always make sure to keep a clean, safe, and comfortable for all pets that I take care of. I will make sure they feel comfortable.

“Marianne is great! She did daily drop-in visits with our dog and cat for the last several days, and was kind enough to come and meet them both first. Our dog, who is very skittish with new people, warmed up to Marianne so quickly. She sent us photos and videos from each visit. I knew my girls were in good hands!”
