About: I have had cats all my life. I am a cat whisperer. Have had dogs also and am good with them. Am good also with training. I am currently retired and working on my house so have time to care for your loved ones. I have had dogs, mostly terriers, and like them, and they like me, but am primarily a cat person.

About: I've always had animals in my household since I can remember, so I understand the importance of caring for our four-legged friends as the cherished family members they are! It's important to provide pets with the love and care they need, and I will ensure that your animal(s) are well looked after while you're away! I care for pets anytime outside of my work schedule over summer, during my free time, and at night for house sitting! I have a lot of morning & evening availability, and I'm free on most weekends-- my schedule will let you know! I've had experience caring for small to big dogs, along with cats, hamsters, mini horses, chickens, and even fish. I ensure they are all fed and taken outside (if needed) under a consistent schedule.

About: What sets me apart from all sitters is my deep depth for all animals. As a child, I have always developed a love for animals. My love and compassion for animals spilled over into the education field working with students with special needs. Presently, I have four rescue cats, two classroom guinea pigs, and four dogs, one of which is a rescue. I volunteer with my country's animal shelter, and I have fostered and saved many animals. My love for critters is endless. I am a teacher, so teachers do not work in the summer. However, I do work teaching summer school and a camp in June. I can work evenings and remain overnight. I have the entire month of July off. My children are grown, so my schedule is flexible. I can provide references. I live in a secluded area, so when I am home, they have free range. My dogs are leash trained. During the day when I am home, they remain in a crate. I live six minutes from work, so they arent in their crates all day. My oldest daughter lives with me, so when I am away, they are taken care of.

“Chris takes wonderful care of my sweet fur babies. They enjoy the long walks and exercise!”


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.

“Great! I love her pics and she was able to manage my somewhat unruly dog! Thank you!!!”

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. Your pets will be loved as they were one of my own. They won't even know you are gone! 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.

Carolyn H.
“Carolyn is great with cats. She puts the pets first on her agenda in the morning, feeding and taking care of their needs. She took care of my cats when I went on a trip and they were very content with Carolyn.”


Jenna H.
“Our experience with Jenna's pet care services has been outstanding. We have 2 dogs, 2 rabbits, a cat, a hamster, and fish (yes, pretty much a zoo, lol). Jenna has taken excellent care of our animals while we were on vacation and at times when we were not able to be home to take care of them last minute. With that many animals it can get pretty demanding however, she kept us updated and communicated well. Jenna treats all the animals as if they were her own. You won't regret hiring her to take care of your fur babies or any other pet you may have.”

Sydney J.
“I trusted Sydney to take in my brand newly adopted hound dog who was unable to go on a pre adoption planned vacation with us. Syd provided different options for Callie's lodging, depending on doggie relations (she is Mom to some of the goodest boys and girls!) but with proper introductions, the dogs were instant pals. I felt completely comfortable trusting her with Callie and she boosted that confidence by sending pictures and videos and updates to reassure us. Suffice to say, the Princess Hound had a blast during her time with Sydney. Without reservation, I would absolutely recommend Sydney for any of your pet needs. Sydney has experience,”

Noelle E.

“Noelle was very kind, responsible and dependable. Zuri seemed to enjoy her time with Noelle. Highly recommend her and will use Noelle again when in town!!”




Tina P.
“I had the pleasure to meet Tina when she lived in PA couple years ago. She was our sitter. Both my dogs Rocco and Casey love her. She is a super sitter, such that every year on our way to Florida for vacation we drop them both at her place in VA. They love to spend time there with her. Neither of my dogs like to be in the kennel, but spending time at Tina’s provides them with special attention they require and the ability to exercise and run for a while each day. It’s like a vacation for them too! I have the peace of mind to know that they are well cared for and enjoy my vacation without concern. I can’t say enough of her dedication and professionalism. I highly recommend her!! Maria Alvarez Langhorne, PA”


Brandy P.
“She has grown up with dogs and cats all her life and has loved every one. She is very kind and patient with pets who have disabilities or normal. Brandy loves to walk, play and give affection to her pets and others pets. She would make a great addition to your company.”


Lily S.
“Lily is the most caring and loving person I know especially when it comes to any animals. She will make sure your pet is loved and taken care of. She will put the needs of your pet over her own needs, and do anything required to make sure that your pet is in good hands. I highly recommend lily s. She is one of the best caregivers I know. Thank you.”


Melanie H.
“Melanie has groomed my dog and took him for a walk for me while I was at work a few times and does great! Charlie loves her! She always brings his favorite bacon treats for after their walk! She is a great groomer and loving pet caregiver!”
