About: I've had pets my whole life from the biggest of dogs to cutest of cats. I'm a very active mom, and fitness lover that could always use a furry partner. 🐕🦺🐈 I'm currently working mornings 7am-3pm, so anytime before 6 am or after 4pm drop off works best for me. I have a front and back yard as well as 1 lovely cat that I can keep in separate room if need be. My home is clean warm and inviting to all animals. Hooray! As a mom pet care fits into my schedule perfectly. My kids have a lot of fun with all animals that come to our home. I have plenty of space a loving 6 year old son and a young wild & free 3 year old son, who can't get enough of the running he gets to do during my sits.

“Lora did an awesome job with Veechie. She clearly has not only a genuine love for animals, but for human beings as well. I had a knee replacement a week ago, and she was very understanding of my pain and very comforting. In this short time, I definitely consider Lora someone to be trusted without only my dog, but with all of the pets in my home. It’s very hard for me to trust other people with my dog especially and I’m very glad that I chose Lora to walk him and I would definitely choose her over and over again with no hesitation. Great experience thank you.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I currently have a working dog of my own. I’ve had a long journey when coming to training her. I take care of my pet everyday with love, training and time out exploring the world. We’re constantly trying something new everyday with new people and animals. I will make sure the environment is safe and secure. I always double check when it comes to the safety of others. I will accommodate where needed.

10. Emily A.
About: I’ve grew up on a farm and have been around animals since I was born. I am training to be a vet tech so your animals are in perfect hands. I work remotely so I am home at all times. My Dailey schedule depends on your animal and what they need during the day and night. I live in an apartment downtown that is right beside trails and a dog park so if your animal stays with me they are definitely being pampered.


11. Brianna S.

“Brianna is very good with our dog and even took the time to teach him little tricks. I would definitely request her again.”


12. BRENDA K.
“Brenda cared for my dog for a few weeks while I was away. She walked her, fed her and played with her. She has also been her walker on and off for many years when needed. My dog loves her and the attention she gives her. She is reliable and loves animals. I give her my highest praise, love her.”




13. Caroline N.
About: I am no stranger to senior and puppy care. I raised beagle puppies all throughout my life and taken special care of many senior dogs and cats whose illnesses ranged from obesity to thyroid and now seizures from a possible brain tumor. I love finding the most comfortable and happy situation for any animal because at the end of the day all animals need someone to be their voice as they are also Gods children. Also I have a full life of horse care experience as I have been employed as a a feeder, rider and general horse care all through out high school and my undergraduate degree. My schedule right now is completely open as I am in need of a summer job before I start pharmacy school at Virginia Commonwealth University in the fall but even then in school I will still be able to fit walks and drop ins into my school schedule. My yard at home is not fenced in but we have just about an acre of land that is a mix of wooded and unwooded that I am happy to put any dog on a leash to explore with them.


14. Veronica H.
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my pets received! From the moment we met, it was clear that Veronica has a genuine love for animals. She was reliable, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure my pets felt comfortable and happy while I was away. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. When I came home, my pets were relaxed and well-cared for — it was like I never left! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”


15. Brooklynn B.
“Over the past 6 years Brooklynn has loved and cared for 3 of my dogs (2 of which have passed) for short visits including walks, playtime and feeding them to extended periods of time, up to a week. My babies just love/loved her and get super excited when she walks in the door. I’m not even sure they miss me because they have so much fun with her! Each time she has cared for them she has sent pictures, and though I know she takes great care of them it puts me at ease. Brooklynn will always be my “go to” as her prices are reasonable and she is super flexible with her schedule. Thank you Brooklynn for loving Bubba, Daisy & Luna as if they were your own ❤️”


16. Mackenzie D.
“Mackenzie is a dedicated person who truly cares for every pet she encounters. Her love for animals is truly outstanding and would have her watch my pets in a heartbeat. She takes the upmost scrutiny when caring for anyone’s pets. I’ve had the chance to care for pets with her, and without a doubt, would recommend her to anyone. Mackenzie is my go to pick with any animal care needs that may arise.”


17. Hannah S.
“Hannah watched our dog while we were on out our honeymoon for a week. We got daily updates and also pictures! 10/10 Would Recommend!!! :)”


18. Mary Jane C.
About: I have years of experience of taking care of pets.

19. Allejah K.
About: Lifetime dog lover and caregiver with experience in geriatric care, allergy management, and weight control. Your furry-friends’ health and happiness will be my top priority. I work from home so I have the flexibility to work from your home and play and care for your furry friends, mid day walks, or even help with boarding needs. I don’t have any pets currently. I have a nice size fenced yard and I love taking pups on long walks in my neighborhood or at the local dog park if possible.


20. Amanda M.

“We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Amanda. Her love for animals is obvious and she is great with both of our dogs (one of which struggles with reactivity). Additionally, Amanda has gone above and beyond for our family when we really needed her. We highly recommend her!”
