1. Kade M.


“Kade was amazing with our sweet girl and knew exactly how to approach her as she can be timid in the beginning with new people. Kade did everything we asked, was always on time and kept up with our routine. I loved the photos with updates after every visit! We know we left our dog in good hands. We will definitely be repeat customers!”


2. Elijah S.

“Elijah was very reliable and did a fantastic job of communicating from the first time I reached out to him about sitting. He took lots of photos and wrote notes that made it clear exactly how our cats were doing while we were away. Will definitely ask him to watch them again!”


3. Devinder K.

“I’m so glad I chose to book with Devinder! I’ve been blown away by his responsiveness, flexibility, communication, and clear love for pets :) He’s very professional, but also comes across like a friend who’s always down to help you out and care for your pets like they’re his own. I trust him with my pets for the long haul!”


4. Catherine C.

“Cat is the most wonderful sitter we’ve had for our girls! She was communicative, caring, and provided so much love to our two pups. One of our pups is really shy with new people, but Cat’s patience and expertise completely won her over. We got lots of photos and videos of our fur babies. Do not hesitate in working with Cat for your pet care - she’s phenomenal. Thank you so much, Cat!”


5. Cynthia B.

“Cynthia was a great pup-sitter, and kept me well informed with pictures and updates! Sebastian tends to be anxious and he looked like he didn’t miss a beat of belly rubs, cuddles, walks and attention. She communicated all needs and changes in behavior during my time away! She was a great sitter!”


6. Kristen C.

“Kristen is a gem of a person and so attentive to our dog, Skye. She sends lots of updates and pictures and is also very funny. She is great to work with and I totally trust her with our furbaby.”


7. Alyssa S.

“Alyssa was amazing!!! Great communication and pictures! Won over our one little anxious pup with perseverance and treats! Thank you so much!!!”


8. Eula C.


“This was my second time using Thane and, as expected, they were great! They gave my kitty Rat all the snuggles he requires and had no problem with his medication. Their updates each visit were thorough. I was a bit disorganized while planning this time away and they were very understanding. I’m so glad to have found them!”


9. Andrew C.

“Andrew has been by far the best dog walker you could ask for. Always going above and beyond. He literally offered to install the portable AC in my house while I was at work and the AC went out. Leaving Richmond is going to be hard but finding anyone better with my dog will be impossible!”


10. Cindy S.

“Great job! Lucy was so calm and happy when we got home!”


11. Kiera B.

“Great care and communication. Really saved me with last minute check-ins on my older, needy cat. Definitely recommended!”


12. Nick I.

“First time having Nick care for our fur babies! Nick is a great young man who clearly loves animals. He was punctual for our meet and greet as well as drop in visit to care for our pups! Would highly recommend and will definitely be calling on him for future needs!”


13. Abby L.

“Abby took great care of my weird, shy kitties. One of them even came out of hiding, which usually doesn’t happen with someone she doesn’t know. It really eased my mind to know they were with a reliable, kind person who loves cats. I will be using her again. Thank you, Abby”


14. Alexas G.

“Alexis watched my cat for a week. She’s very personable, communicated with me every day and gave me piece of mind knowing he was taken care of.”


15. Claire P.

“Claire was FANTASTIC! She stopped over for a meet and greet prior to coming for the visit to meet them! Played and gave them a snack! Much appreciated! Loved getting the cute pics during the visit!”


16. Maria & Luis V.


“Maria was great! We were so grateful she agreed to drop in on our two kitties on super short notice, and was very easy to work with. She sent detailed notes and photos and took great care of our boys. Thank you Maria, look forward to working with you again in the future!!”


17. Lindsay P.

“So grateful for Lindsay’s updates at each visit. She took great care of our needy boy. Thank you!”


18. Tyler H.


“I’m never using anyone else! Tyler has a genuine love and passion for animals that shows in her visits and when she hosts. You won’t just get pictures of your dog playing in backyard - she actually spends time with your pup”


19. Emily J.
“Emily does a great job with our puppy! She is always reliable and available last minute for anything and everything we might need. She spends more time than she has to with our puppy and we never have a reason to worry when his care is in her hands! Would strongly recommend her service to anyone!”


20. Kaylynn H.

“She did a great job with our huge dog on short notice.”
