About: I have been a dog lover all of my life and know how important their care is. Dogs are just part of the family! I love getting to know each dogs personality and figure go above and beyond to consider the needs of a variety of pups. I have a flexible schedule allowing me to provide constant care for your pup. I am interested in meeting and caring for all types of dogs, big/small, puppy or seniors! I can be as flexible as possible and will be honest about your pup’s care. I will treat your fur-babes like part of the family. We have a fenced in yard and If your pup is more comfortable as part of the pack, they are invited in to have the run of the house with our family dogs. We love dogs and will try to accommodate any special requests. Available to check in on your pups every 4 hours (m-f) and spend weekends all day with your dogs! I can check in with your pups every 3-4 hours during the day and be there to stay after 4 pm. I prioritize feeding and potty schedules to make sure there are little to no changes in their routines. I care for your pets like they are my own. Figuring out they’re behaviors and personalities is important to me. Some dogs need lots of love and attention and others like their space, either way they’ll be in great hands.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life and all other farm animals. I worked at hunt kennels with 60-70 hounds everyday, vet tech, brought along young puppy’s, I’ve done it all, I’m a very active person and enjoy just getting out with dogs. Please feel free to message me if you would want to know more! I work in the evenings, so would love to fill my mornings up more but have a very flexible schedule to meet house sitting needs Whatever is asked of me and how they like to do things is exactly how I’m going too. I want the animal to still feel comfortable in its own home while parents are away.

“Lindsay took lots of pictures and sent a detailed rover card each time she walked Loretta. It was great to see her updates and to know that Loretta was in good hands.”

About: Hi, I’m Sydney! I grew up on a farm, so animals have been part of my daily life for as long as I can remember. I’m confident with everything from barn cats to reactive dogs, and I’m no stranger to giving meds—pills, topicals, even injections. Whether your pet needs a calm walk, some playtime, or just a little company while you’re away, I’ve got it covered. My flexible schedule means your pet gets reliable care and plenty of attention—because they deserve nothing less! Pet care fits perfectly into my current lifestyle because I have an open and flexible schedule. That means I can focus on giving your pet the attention they deserve—whether it’s a midday walk, an early morning visit, or a last-minute check-in. I’m not juggling a 9–5, so your pet gets a sitter who’s reliable, available, and fully present. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to stick closely to their normal routine—because pets feel safest when things feel familiar. Whether it’s refreshing food and water, going for a walk, playtime, or just offering some company and belly rubs, I’m all about making your pet feel comfortable and cared for. I’m respectful of your space, leave things how I found them, and always send updates so you know how your furry friend is doing while you’re away.

About: Hello, I’m Dani, and I love all animals! I have adopted multiple pets of my own from SPCAs. I personally have owned lots of dogs and cats, a few fish, a hedgehog, a turtle, and hamsters. I believe that every animal deserves lots of love and a caring, warm home! I promise to always give my best to your fur (or non-fur) babies and keep them in good hands while you’re away. It’s important for you and your pet to be comfortable with who is taking care of them. I’m comfortable with all ages and sizes of dogs! I’m pretty strong for a woman and have been able to handle all breeds. I am available on the weekends and weekdays. Mornings and evenings before and after work! I can be flexible and work around both of our schedules to see what fits for us both. I work at a spa and a restaurant so my shifts at both places vary greatly. Weekends are usually a 9am-5pm, but weekday shifts are typically no longer than 6 hours. Pets are always in the best care with me. My own pets even sleep with me and I love pet cuddles! I can be flexible to do whatever you need me to do! I can feed, water, walk, play, and bathe your dog! I’d love to become besties with your pet! I often times catch myself having full on conversations with them 🤣

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 14, living with them longer. I also currently live on a farm and have good hands when it comes to working with animals!

About: I've worked for 2 reputable dog walking companies circa 2007. When I became pregnant I took some time off. In 2008 I started Aimee's Pet Sitting service in Chesterfield and the surrounding areas. 6 years ago we moved to Cumberland and I started dog boarding. I love dogs! Many of my customers come from Chesterfield to board with me still. I have amazing references! *UPDATE JANUARY 2024* I'm trying something new this year and focusing more on dog walking, and overnight stays/house sitting instead of dog boarding! Still feel free to reach out to me for any of your doggie needs and I can help find the right fit for your pups! I have open schedule flexibility. I have reliable transportation and eager to come care for your pets!l!! There are many options for dog walking, whether it be in your neighborhood, yard or adventure trips to local parks.

If you are looking for overnight in your home visits, I'm able to take care of all pets in your home, not just the dog! Cats, reptils, birds etc are all loved by me! We can discuss some light cleaning, watering plants, bring mail in and such as well.

About: I have worked with several different types, sizes, and personalities of dogs. I also have experience with older dogs and being sensitive to their needs as they age. Providing a calm and reasurring presence to my canine friends, whether they are excited to see me or feeling a little stressed with their owner gone. I try to give my animal companions the best quality of life possible for them. I really love what I do. I currently work part time so I am able to give lots of time spending with furry friends. Animal care has become part of my daily routine and I couldn't imagine life with out it. In others homes I keep the enviorment low key and peaceful so as not disrupt them. I try to keep them on a regular schedule so they know what to expect and can relax a bit more.

About: I’ve taken care of many animals throughout my life since I was young. Friends, family, significant others, and my own which entailed bathing, walking, training, feeding, and just going outside and playing fetch with them. My whole life I have been a major animal lover of all shapes and sizes, and I have years of experience to make you comfortable with me taking care of your pet. I make it my priority to spend as much time with my dog Sadie as possible, I bathe when necessary because she loves to be outside and makes a mess of herself I walk her, feed her, and take her to the dog park with me some days. I will do whatever you all would like to do when it comes to your fur babies if that entails crating when necessary I can, or giving your dog medication, I would love if you’d like me to take your dog on walks it’s always good for them to get as much exercise as possible, just know that when it comes to your pets I understand how important it is to be getting the proper care and I will make sure that will happen. I’m currently unemployed and I’m very much available right now, I would like to work more full time like Monday-Friday 8am-5pm I can also do boarding. I would ensure your dog is safe and well taken care of, monitoring the dog at all times is key and being aware of surroundings for the fur baby.
