Pet Sitting in Patricksburg

“So grateful for Westley’s time and attention to my herd of four (4) basset hounds. During his daily drop-in visits, Westley took them on walks around our property and spent time with each one. He was covered in fur by the time he left from giving them all the scratches and pets he could muster! He was great about giving daily updates and pictures of them that I never would have captured otherwise! Will book with him again!”

About: I’ve had over 50 years of caring for many breeds of dogs, including my own. I am respectful of others homes and can be trusted to give loving care to your dogs. I am a retiree that has a fairly open schedule and able to spend the night at your home. I may need to leave for an hour two at times for health appts. and going to our home to let our own dog out for a bit. I am flexible on how to care for your dogs in your home, including using a crate. I will respect your current ways of sharing your home with your dogs.

“Paul did a fantastic job wrangling my five gingers for a long weekend, a couple of whom are scared of strangers. He genuinely cares about the animals. Definitely recommend!”

About: I’m usually the first person my family calls when they need someone to care for their cutie pets while they’re away. As a grad student and pet owner myself, I understand the emotional support that animals can provide! Pets are family members and I understand what it takes to look after family. I send daily photo updates and report back any information requested. I have experience maintaining training schedules for puppies. I’m diligent at following care plans and requests. Overall, I truly to enjoy connecting with animals and their owners alike! Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and considering me. I’m currently working towards my graduate degree and have a flexible daily schedule. I am able to stop by routinely (in between classes or internship commitments) to take care of your pet! I am available most weekends and weekdays. My schedule is subject to change in a few weeks with the start of a new semester. My goal is to continue the quality of care that your pet is used to. I want to reduce the amount of stress they might experience in the absence of their loving owner(s)! Keeping their routine as similar as possible is key. Meal times, walk times, crate/no crate, on/off furniture, treats, etc. are all things I try to attend to. I am open to specific requests your pet might need!

“Ashley provided excellent care for my animals while I was away. She sent updates and had great communication. I was nervous because I have never used Rover before but everything was great!”

About: All my life I’ve grown up with a variety of different pets, from cats named “Refrigerator”, an Iguana named “Dude-Man”, and your average Joe of a dog. During these years, I’ve learned that each dog, cat, and iguana has specific needs unlike any other of its kind - whether that’s extra love, time to be an introvert, or health care. I have skills to do basic trainings with dogs, as well as a strong skill in consistency to make sure your pet’s training you’ve worked so hard on continues to be worked for under my care. I’m a college student located at Indiana State University. I’m free nearly every evening and have a very flexible schedule to leave campus and ensure your pet can get the attention it deserves. I enjoy a written list of what your specific pet needs- just to make sure I hit every mark. I grew up with my grandmother, so I know how to respect a home!

“Deborah arrived right on time for the checkin. Great communication before and after the visit. Looking forward to having her take care of our pups again!”

About: I’ve had dogs anywhere from Springer Spaniels to Cane Corsos, and I absolutely adore every breed. My experience doesn’t end with dogs; I have taken care of tortoises, bunnies, and guinea pigs, too! I know how to give medication, and of course all the necessities. I have also taken care of dogs with disabilities, and injuries. I know how to wrap stitched wounds, as well as change gauze, and apply ointments the correct way! I am here to help and would love to meet y’all’s pups! I have many pets at home, so I am very used to what an animal needs! I am aware of their schedule, and how often most pets need to be taken outside, for walks, or fed. I start with lots of love! I will, of course, greet any dog with some pets, then go into whatever service is booked! I am very enthusiastic, and patient with pets.

“Leah was amazing!! This is my first time using Rover, and I absolutely loved how well she took care of my animals. She was super sweet, super communicative, cleaned up after them, available during the holidays and on a bit of a late notice, and overall I really appreciate her and her work! I will be going to her again for my pet needs 😁 THANK YOU LEAH!!”

About: I’ve taken care of family and friends animals since I was very young. My parents let me have my own guinea pig to take care of myself starting in kindergarten. I’ve always loved animals and will help in anyway I can. I care for my elderly pugs on a daily basis. I work as a nanny and am a student but only in the morning and they are both very flexible so I can add in my needs with animal sitting. I’m available most night as well. I will follow all the instructions listed for me to do. I like to make sure the house is spotless when the owners get home so they can relax. I will take care of the animals by doing all I can to make sure they feel safe and cared for as well.

About: I have always had pets in my life and I don’t know what I would do without them. I have had dogs, cats, sheep and llamas. I started dog sitting when I was 18. It all started when a family friend was going on vacation and didn’t want to board their animals cats and dogs. I have been doing off and on ever since then. I have taken care of friends animals have been dogs, cats, and horses. And now I am teaching my son to love all kinds of animals. I currently have a full time job and a mom to a little boy. My work schedule is 8am-4pm. My days off are Saturday and Sunday. I will care for your fur babies how you would like me to. At home my fur babies stay in one room when my husband or myself are not home but they used to use kennels. If your animals are kid friendly and if you don’t mind I will be bring my son with me to teach him about all kinds of animals and how different ways of taking care other people’s animals.

“Lauren took excellent care of our pets during a recent trip. She was timely, had great communication, and made sure she knew all of the care details in advance. She even took in all of our packages while we were away! Definitely would re-book next time we need a sitter!”

About: I've taken care of many pets in my lifetime, including pet and house sitting for family and friends. I love most animals (snakes scare me). I live in the last house on a dead end county road and have plenty of room for animals to play and have fun. Plus, my kids and our pets will have fun visiting and playing with your pets. I currently work weekends only as a RN. I am home Mondays-Thursdays. I do have 3 kids of my own, so I do have to get them to and from school. We have a large yard for pets to play. Dogs will always be on leashes as our yard is in currently fenced. We live in the last house on a dead end country road, so no cars come past our home. I can easily crate your pet if needed. We have a friendly female dog and 3 friendly cats.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was little. I have been taught from a young age the best and most effective way to take care of your pet. I know each furry friend has an owner that loves them very much and so I always treat each pet as if they were my own. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to play and interact with your pet. Pets need love and attention and that is very important to me. I have a fenced in yard and I make sure each dog is properly cared for and has the play and toys they need to be super happy.

About: I love all animals. I especially love dogs and cats. I have worked with animal rescue groups and I volunteer my time to help shelters and their efforts. I have had dogs and cats all of my life. Mostly large breeds. I am comfortable with any large breed. I am also very patient with dogs that are still learning. When I am walking a dog I am fully focused on them and do not try to rush them. I help reassure them if they feel anxious or unsure of their surroundings. It should be an enjoyable and healthy experience for the dog and for me as well! I would like to have several regulars that know me and are excited to get a routine going. Having a relationship with the dog and owners is important to me so everyone can feel comfortable.
