“These girls went above and beyond when I had some additional requests while I was away. I 1000% recommend them to anyone that is looking for someone that will take the time to treat your pets like their own. Will definitely be using them for more worry-free vacations.”

“We’ve had the pleasure of working with Mary as our pet-sitter for the past five years. During that time, Mary has provided drop-in visits during the day and home stays when we’re away. She takes amazing care of our golden retriever and three outdoor cats. Mary is incredibly reliable, flexible with our sometimes last-minute scheduling needs, and has a natural understanding of animals. It gives us real peace of mind knowing our pets (and home) are in such capable hands while we're away. She's not only great with animals—calm, confident, and clearly experienced—but also reliable and easy to work with. We highly recommend her as a pet-sitter.”

About: I have taken care of pets for many years now for relatives, neighbors, and friends. It is something I enjoy to do when my schedule is open enough to do so! I am providing stop in, walking, day to day, and overnight care for pets. This includes regular activities like walking, playing, potty, feeding, car rides, cuddles, all included in the set price. I can also bathe the pets for an additional fee. I currently work full time my work day is typically split in half. Giving me the perfect timestamps throughout the day to check in on the pets. I work only in the Harrisonburg area so I am all around town. I am a local to Harrisonburg and know all the dog-friendly spots! Pet care fits into my daily schedule as I have always had pets until college, I am use to fixing my schedule around them, as pets are like children. I work short shifts where I drive to different clients all day, giving me many breaks throughout the day to spend time with the pets! I am a very neat and righty person. As I work with elderly patients, I am not afraid of bacteria or most things! I believe I am trustworthy for pet sitting as I have extensive experience in caring for humans.

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I am comfortable and confident in providing love, care, and support to all animals when needed. I am currently in graduate school working on my Masters degree in counseling. I am flexible and available on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays, Thursdays after 1pm, and some weekends! I can provide drop in home visits for dogs and cats. I can also do walks around the neighborhood or local parks. And bring a snack if they have a favorite treat with approval by owner! :)

“Sammi was wonderful! She took great care of the cats, kept us updated on some health issues, and even helped reprogram one of the RFID feeders from afar when one of the cats lost their tag. We really appreciate her going above and beyond for us and our boys - thank you!!!”

About: I have three dogs of myself and a rabbit! I’m previously from Arizona and I’ve had dogs for longer than I can remember. I have experience in taking care of elderly dogs (14+). Currently two of my dogs are with me in VA. I make sure to remove and sterilize shoes before entering the home. Just reach out and we can shot some time around and do a meet and great! Im a graduate student and my schedule is relatively free at the moment. Any type of changes to my schedule will be communicated. I can give more concrete times when given exact dates. I don't take pets in my home due to having two dogs myself. I make sure to sterilize shoes and hands before entering premises as a precaution for dogs with sensitive health.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable, patient, and caring cat sitter who understands that every cat has their own unique personality and routine. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or enjoys quiet companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, playtime, cuddles (if your cat enjoys them!), and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to administer medication if needed and will carefully follow your cat’s routine and any special instructions. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when you’re away, so I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can see how your cat is doing. My goal is to provide the same level of care and affection that I would give my own pets, ensuring your cat is happy, healthy, and stress-free until you return. I look forward to meeting you and your feline family! As a full-time middle school teacher, I have a structured schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care before and after school, in the evenings, on weekends, and during school breaks. Cat sitting is a great fit because cats typically do well with consistent drop-in visits, and I’m committed to making sure they receive the attention, care, and routine they need while you’re away. I’m organized, dependable, and experienced in following routines—skills I use every day as a teacher. I’ll communicate regularly with updates and photos, so you can feel confident that your cat is happy, safe, and well cared for. I care for every cat according to their unique personality, routine, and needs. I make sure they have fresh food and water, keep their litter box clean, and provide plenty of love, attention, and playtime if they enjoy interacting. I also respect cats that prefer their space, making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special care requirements. During every visit, I monitor for any changes in behavior or health and will communicate with the owner right away if I notice anything unusual. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can relax knowing their cat is happy and well cared for while they’re away.

I am a music teacher, so my summers have plenty of availability weekdays and weekends. Happy to do repeat check-ins and regular walks in your neighborhood! As someone who has a HARD time leaving my pet when I’m traveling, I understand how much you need to know your pet is safe and happy. I can send photos and updates galore!
