About: Greetings/Bon Jour! Let me welcome your small pooches (25 lbs or less) to my home for pamper and play while you are away. I have a natural love and affinity for dogs and have owned and cared for them from childhood. I understand what it means to have peace of mind knowing your dog is well cared for and having fun while you are traveling. I recently lost my beloved dog and now I am ready to turn that grief into loving and caring for other little fur babies. Why I love dog sitting? They bring immense joy and happiness to my life. About my yard I have a small yard and common area. There are plenty of walking paths along the bay in front of my house and I walk my doggie guests regularly. I do not leave them out doors unattended or unleashed. My experience administering medication No injectable medication. I am retired and home on a daily basis so your baby will get all the attention they need.We can do as much or as little as they require. Please make all requests for pet bookings prior to 9pm at night. All requests after 9pm will be responded to the next morning. Your baby will get up with me get their breakfast, take walks and cuddle and play with me during the day. I live in a beautiful historical walking district by the river that is a dog friendly community. We will walk to cafes and see other pet parents out and about.

“Madison took great care of Sterling! He really enjoyed his day with her!”

About: I have always had Furr Babies growing up, I have had jack, max and Buzz. My neighbors and family have always trusted with their Dogs to feed, bath and walk them. But Furr Babes only because I have always been scared of Cat but I can't get enough of those Babes. I work every other weekends and Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays are my turnover day where I work half days. My schedule is a little weird because I am in the military. I live in an apartment and don't have a yard but my apartment have some nice facilities like a Dog spa. And I live in downtown there are plenty of space to walk this babies.

About: I love dogs and have taken care of our family dog. I understand how precious they are and how they deserve to be treated with compassion and love I'm newly retired and would love to provide love and nurturing care to your sweet furbaby! Plenty of space and a large fenced yard! Plenty of rubs and walks I have a plenty of room, a large fenced yard and a friendly senior dog. I am usually asked by neighbors and friends to care for their dogs for short term or long term

About: I've had dogs for as long as I can remember and love being around them. I have experience with all sizes of dogs from Papillons to German Shepards. I am accepting of all breeds, sizes and ages. I've had several dogs with allergies and other health issues, so I am experienced in giving medications, applying any topicals, and noticing any developing symptoms. I also have lots of experience with cats and even have one of my own with medical issues, so I would love to do drop ins for your feline friends! I am currently a student at Eastern Virginia Medical School and am doing rotations, so I am mostly only available for Cat visits with semi flexible drop-in schedules, but still feel free to shoot me a message anyway to check on my schedule! I have a 7 year old Pit Bull Terrier that absolutely loves all other animals and can adjust his play style according to other dogs sizes. I also have a small fenced in outdoor patio where your dogs can relax outside with some sun in between walks. I live alone so there won't be too much stimulation from others, and there's plenty of space for your pup to take some time to their selves if needed.

“Aramae was great with my large Lab. My doggie daycare request was short notice, but she was able to accommodate us, giving me peace of mind that my dog was well cared for when I headed into the office.”

About: Hi, I am a stay at home mom of two teenage children and we all love dogs. I also love walks. I try to walk about 10,000 steps a day. Your pet will get plenty of exercise and attention from me. I have taken several lessons and online courses on dog training. I also am very patient. I know your pet is a family member to you and I will treat him as such. Feel free to contact me with any questions. Looking forward to meeting your pet! I am retired so I have plenty time on my hands to do pet care. It has become a hobby for me. I really enjoy it. I cook breakfast and dinner for my dogs at home, they enjoy long walks and also free roam in my big backyard. In my clients home I am respectful of their space while taking good care of them.

“You can tell she loves dogs. Autumn cared for our pup with love and understanding, and made sure she got her walks and play time in. Riley was tuckered out on the way home and looked like she wanted to go back for more day care! We will definitely be booking with Autumn again. Thank you!”

About: Animals have always been a constant part of my life. I grew up in a home where there were always dogs and cats around, caring for them wasn’t just a responsibility, it was part of daily life. Over the years, I have personally raised and cared for three dogs of my own, each with different personalities and needs, which taught me patience, structure, and how to connect with animals on an individual level. Most recently, I adopted another dog into the family, adding even more joy and playful to the house. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I have experienced it all training, playtime, feeding routines, crate care, walks, and of course, lots of cuddles. Whether your pet is shy or social, active or relaxed, we understand how to make them feel safe, loved, and at home. I have a partner who has been pet sitting for her friends and co-workers last 4 years. I work at shipyard, but my work is pretty flexible that I can check out our dogs or any other pet frequently to make sure they receive enough attention love and most importantly care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I provide a calm and secure environment where dogs can relax and be themselves. I have a fully fenced big yard for safe outdoor play, and I supervise all interactions to make sure everyone is happy and comfortable. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible — from feeding schedules to crate preferences and bedtime habits — so they feel right at home. I never use harsh corrections; instead, I rely on positive reinforcement, patience, and gentle guidance. I also keep my home clean, pet-proofed, and free of anything unsafe. Whether your dog is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, we make sure they always feel safe, respect. I will keep sending regular updates and pictures or videos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands

“Kelsey took great care of my dog, would have him watch Russell again anytime.”

About: My name is Molly! I lived on a farm for 6 years and raised Australian shepherds so I have a lot of experience with dogs. My family adopted my first dog named Shiloh when I was 7 and she was a beagle mix. We lost her when she was 15, but she lived a long, happy, and healthy life. I have a lot of experience with my own dogs as well as dog sitting for others. I am currently a Physician Assistant Student so I will be in class for a few hours per day, but otherwise I am mostly at home. I have a small chihuahua/Pomeranian mix that is 5 years old. Her name is Luna and she is one of the sweetest dogs I have met (maybe slightly biased, but she really is so sweet ;)). She loves to play with dogs of all sizes (she grew up with labs and Australian shepherds). Dogs must be friendly with other dogs and be potty trained. We typically go out for a walk/potty break every 3-4 hours, but can go out more/less if needed. -raised, trained, and bred Australian shepherds -cared for diabetic dog requiring insulin injections -cared for handicapped pug that has seizures and requires several medications throughout the day -have done house sitting / dog sitting with many different breeds: pit Bull, German shepherd puppy, boxer, vizsla mix, plott hound, husky, beagle, Maltese, and more! Dogs are my life and they bring me so much joy. I don’t know what I would do without my furry best friends <3 In school, but home most of the day. Never gone for more than 4 hours at the most. Home all weekend. Potty breaks/walks every 4 hours at most I live in a safe neighborhood. My apartment is very spacious and safe. My dog has beds all over the house and plenty of toys to share. She sleeps with me in my king sized bed or in her bed.

About: I adore and respect all animals, of any size. I am a certified pet groomer and have been Petsitting for about 8 years. I work with a lot of senior pets, and pets with disabilities. They are my absolute favorite. I have 3 cats of my own and I currently live in an apartment so boarding is not an option unfortunately right now due to space. I will care for your pet like they are my own! I am also CPR and first aid certified! I look forward to meeting your furry, scaly or feathering friends! Currently I do work full time as a pet stylist. If your pet is used to you being away for an 8 hour shift of work I am the sitter for you! Unless it is a Sunday or Monday, I can not provide 24 hour care because I do have a job. I will care for your pets like they are my own! I love all my clients and I have plenty of experience as I am in a grooming salon everyday!

“Jaime and her family have been wonderful to our sweet puppy. We are so comfortable leaving her with them. Thank you for treating her like a member of your family!”

About: Hi my name is Aaliyah and I can provide love for your animal 24 hours out of the week with my undivided attention! I am always home and completely reliable. I have been taking care of animals since I was a little girl. I also love cats just as much as I love dogs. I see animals just like most people see little tiny humans (babies). I believe they deserve all the love they can get. I think I’m a great fit for this task. I take care of my friends puppy when she is feeling down and wants her baby to have more attention. I’m always there for King (her dog) and I care so much and would love to share this love with your animal.

“I would recommend , I feel comfortable for me and my dog when dropping him off.”

About: I have one small 3 legged rescue and just adopted another rescue September 2025 who is recovering from being hit by a car.
