Emily is great! Had an incredibly busy day at work today and wasn’t able to spend my usual amount of time outside with Bonny. Emily showed up on a moment’s notice and did a great job with her. Greatly appreciative!

Chynna took great care of my Junie while I was away. She followed all instructions, sent me lots of photos, and kept me informed on how Junie was doing on their walks. I will definitely be using Chynna again for any dog sitting needs!

Rachel has been my weekly sitter for about 3 months now, my pup and I both love her!!! I’ve seen a huge change in my dogs personality of being much happier since Rachel came into our lives. She takes him on nice LONG walks, takes great pictures, and is so so sweet and understanding of schedule changes. You will not be disappointed in having her watch your fur babies!!

About: I’ve had dogs growing up and had to take care of them a lot as well as having experience as a kennel tech over some summers! I’m currently off over the summer while school is out so my availability is very open. I can take care of your pets when ever you need me. I have an apartment that I am more than happy having pets stay in however there is no yard. I am happy to stay with them and house sit.

About: Ive had 5 years of pet experience, with cats, dogs, reactive, skiddish animals you name it. I have been able to administer medicine to animals, whether it be pill pockets, cheese, bread. I have pet sit others animals quite a few, but with my experience as a kennel attendant will do everything in my power to make sure your pet is comfortable and loved while you are away! So with my own cat he does come first, I usually feed him in the morning and at night at 7pm. If I were to take care of your pets I would have no issue checking on them, feeding them, walking them after 2-3pm because that is when my classes in. During the weekends I am completely free unless something comes up. So my own cat he is confined to my room when I am not home, but when I am i let him roam around. I am trying to get him to go on walks as well so he can still be active

I have an anxious rescue (Sir Kitt) and Kirby has been absolutely wonderful with her! When we started, Kitt had to be coaxed to walk. She was so scared of everyone. Recently, Kitt has come out of her chill spot when she hears Kirby come in! Kirby is wonderful with her and we will be booking again.

About: I’ve been a dog owner my whole life and currently have two dogs of my own so I know firsthand what dogs need to thrive. To me, a great walk isn’t one-size-fits-all. Whether your pup loves to stop and sniff every inch of the sidewalk, needs a fast-paced run to burn energy, or thrives on enrichment and mental stimulation, I follow their lead and make it count. Your dog’s happiness and comfort are always the priority, and you can trust that they’ll be treated like family because that’s exactly how I treat my own. I work from home full-time, so I’m available for your dog throughout the entire day, not just mornings and evenings. No rushing between walks or squeezing pets into a lunch break. Your dog gets my real, present attention whenever they need it. Your dog will be treated like family because that’s the standard in my home. I have two dogs of my own, so your pup will never feel alone or out of place. I’m attentive to each dog’s comfort level and body language, and I make sure every interaction feels safe and positive. Your dog’s wellbeing is never an afterthought.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since I was a child and have always loved it! I am unable to have a pet at this time, so spending time with other people’s pets brings me so much joy. I’m hoping to play a part in keeping your pets active, along with myself! I currently work Thursday through Sunday, with some flexibility, depending on the week. I’m available to walk your pups in the morning on any weekday and later in the day Monday through Wednesday I currently cannot have any pets in my home, but am definitely looking to walk the pups through whatever neighborhood you live in. I’ve lived in Richmond for 10 years now and am comfortable walking pretty much anywhere!

About: If you're looking for reliable, personal care for your pup, my family and I provide safe, loving walks, drop-ins, and boarding for your furpanion. I have 2 years working in a licensed dog daycare facility, in addition to over 10 years of personal experience caring for dogs of various breeds. I start each day by checking in on my pets' needs—feeding, exercise, and playtime are all prioritized. Throughout the day, I maintain a flexible schedule that allows for regular walks, enrichment activities, and cuddles.Whether it's monitoring their health or providing companionship, pet care seamlessly blends into my lifestyle, making every day fulfilling and joyful. Pets are leashed at all times, in my pet friendly neighborhood, my yard is not fenced, so we take a 5-minute walk to the park daily for adventure and bathroom breaks. Pets enjoy a cozy, pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play and relax. I maintain a consistent routine that includes feeding, exercise, and mental stimulation. I prioritize safety and well-being, offering regular updates and communication to keep pet owners informed. Whether it's playtime, walks, or cuddles, I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive love and attention while their owners are away.

About: I’ve been dog-sitting for about 5 years now. I’ve mainly taken care of small to medium sized dogs but I’m open to looking after larger dogs as well. I am very reliable and have a lot of energy to keep your dog entertained throughout the day. I love going for walks and and going to dog parks if allowed by the owner. I live in an apartment and it’s dog-friend and the apartment has a dog area where they can relieve themselves. I live in a studio apartment but there’s plenty of open space where your pup can lounge around. I’m very attentive of your dogs needs, so I stay on top of taking them out for walks and making sure their water bowl is kept full and following their feeding schedule. Also open to grooming and showering your dog, especially if they are staying overnight with me. If your pup is energetic and loves to play we will be a great match!!

Conrad stepped in at our late notice and took fantastic care of our two dogs! They were staying with a sitter who could not walk them, and Conrad came to the rescue with walking them for a full hour every day, reliably and on-time! He communicates really well, is really responsible, and clearly has experience with dogs. One of my dogs is also dog-reactive, and Conrad knew just how to manage any reactive signs on walks and keeps distance from other animals. He listens well to instructions and is just a great dude. I’m happily looking to making him our regular go-to pet sitter and walker whenever we need support!
