About: Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and animal-loving pet caregiver who treats every pet like family. I know every dog and cat has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping your pet company, I’m happy to provide dependable care and plenty of attention. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are always my top priorities. My current schedule is very open and flexible. My son is in school so I will be available during those hours. Between 8:30am-3:30pm. Monday-Friday, but I am flexible on weekends as well if needed. My top priority will always be to care for pets as if they were my own. If staying in my home, I do have a large fenced in yard, a 5 year old golden retriever who loves other dogs, and a 5 year old son to be your dogs best buddy while they stay with us.

About: I've had dogs my entire life and love caring for them as if they are my children. I've had puppies to senior dogs who have passed on, so I am very comfortable with any stage in a dog's life. I treat my dogs like my own children and I know how difficult it can be to find someone who cares for your pets the same way you do, but I promise you that I will care for your pets in the same way I care for my own! I am currently not working, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pet(s). Whenever you need me, I will be there. I am comfortable doing whatever you need me to do in order to take care of your pets. I can give your pets any medications they might need as well as tender loving care.

About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life including seniors with medical needs. I currently have an 18-year-old cat who requires daily medication, so I’m very comfortable with administering meds and handling special routines. While I have not walked or sat much for others professionally yet, I bring decades of hands-on experience with my own pets—treating each one like family. What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and attention to detail. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent care, lots of attention, and flexibility with scheduling. I understand how important it is to keep dogs feeling safe, loved, and well cared for while their people are away. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive, timely care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, regular check-ins, or extended company, I can usually accommodate last-minute or custom requests. I’m happy to discuss a schedule that works best for you and your pet’s routine! I care for pets with the same attention and respect I give my own. At home, I maintain a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel safe and relaxed. I follow feeding routines, keep fresh water available, and provide enrichment through play, affection, and companionship. My goal is always to help pets feel secure and loved while you're away.

About: I’m not just a sitter I’m your pet’s calm, cozy, reliable home‑away‑from‑home. I specialize in creating a soft, stress‑free environment where pets feel safe, loved, and understood. I communicate clearly, respect your routines, and treat every animal like family. Your pet gets comfort, consistency, and genuine care—not just supervision. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily life as a cat mom. Every day includes feeding, fresh water, litter care, enrichment, and calm bonding time — so adding your pet into my routine feels seamless. I’m used to managing structured play sessions, keeping environments clean, and maintaining consistent routines. Weekly, I plan enrichment activities, rotate toys, and make time for extra grooming or deep cleaning. In my client’s home, I follow your pet’s routines exactly to keep their environment familiar, comfortable, and stress‑free. I provide attentive care—feeding, walks or playtime, litter or potty upkeep, and gentle companionship—while keeping your space tidy and your pet feeling completely secure.

About: Hi! My name is Ashley, and I have been around animals my entire life. I have experience caring for small, medium, and large dogs with a variety of personalities and energy levels. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply having company, I am happy to provide the care and attention they need while you’re away. I am also comfortable around cats and understand that every pet has their own routine and preferences. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members, and I will treat your pets with the same care, patience, and affection that I would give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Please note: My house-sitting service does not include overnight stays. I provide care throughout the day and evening and will return the following morning for continued care. If your pet requires a sitter to remain in the home overnight, I may not be the best fit for your needs. My availability is Wednesday evening through Sunday evening each week. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting during that time and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and needs. I don’t currently have a pet in my home, but I have spent my life around dogs and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I understand how important routines are for animals, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment while they are in my care.

About: Due to frequently moving around for my moms job, I wasn't able to have a pup to myself, however that never stopped my from caring for others. Where ever we called home, I became the go-to pet sitter in my community. In the beginning I advertised myself to my moms coworkers and before I knew it, people already new my name and would refer me to others. I was only allowed to care for these fur babies on school breaks during my primary years and I still do so now when I visit my mom overseas. In the past I have done boarding, drop-ins as well as walks. Walks: I usually walk dogs about 3-4 times a day. At wake up usually around 8am around human lunch time (noon) another about 4 or 5pm and another before bed 10/11. My walks usually span from 15-45 minutes. Lunch walks are on the shorter side as well during peak heat hours. Longer walks are morning and afternoon/night times as I have more time to dedicate and its usually cooler. If your doggie needs more or less walks/time outside I am happy to accommodate. Attention: I am more than happy to accommodate to your pups personality and regular home life. If your doggo loves cuddles and kisses I am free for all the above but if that is not their style let me know and can provide space for alone time (or parallel laying lol). I allow pets on my bed but if this will interfere with their learning and home training, let me know these limitations. Playtime: I usually play with pups when they show signs that they will like to play. Whether they have the zoomies and we round around or if we are playing tug-a-war. If you have a more active dog, I will accommodate with more activities and longer walks. If they enjoy running I can also comply as I am trying to get better at running. If your dog has a preference for dog parks, let me know so I can accommodate as well. Being a college student, I am flexible when it comes to a pups needs. I work a part-time job as well as attend classes but, I live a block away from both so quickly getting home or to my car is not a problem. I am a pretty active person as I like to walk and experience nature to its fullest. I know some nice spots to walk and stretch your doggos legs. I also know how to get comfortable and cuddle :) For this fall semester I have classes during the day and have a part-time job during the evening (3-4h) but I am able to work a proper, caring schedule to care for you babies. Emergencies: PLEASE provide me your dogs medical records as well as your vets number and location. This is for emergencies only and I will contact you first if anything arises.

About: I’ve had animals all of my life, and I currently have a dog and a cat now. Also, I’ve taken care of dogs/cats since I was old enough to do so! Whether it was as a job or for a friend, I bathed, fed, and cared for them like they were my own! I currently only work a couple hours a day so I am usually available after 10 A.M. Other than those few hours, I am home every day! I live right in front of a big park as well as an actual dog park so your dog will have plenty of space to play! I myself have a dog and a cat who are very playful and get along with anyone and everyone. My dog would love to keep your dog company, as he thinks that play time is anytime! I can also crate your dog if needed!

About: Can administer medications and injections Senior care to dogs and cats Veterinary knowledge Passionate about animal care Willing to accommodate special needs Looking forward to hearing from you! I have a very flexible schedule that allows me the luxury to shift/accommodate requests. I will do my best to accommodate requests while providing the upmost care and consideration for your pet(s). I provide food and medications (if required). I conduct leashed walks around the neighborhood. I ensure they get outside time for bathroom breaks so no accidents occur in the home. I play and ensure your pet has an outlet for their energy.

About: I am going to treat your dog like my own if not better. I have two dogs Bailey and Princess who were rescue dogs. Bailey was mean and and could not wear a collar. Princess was malnurished and skin issues. Now both dogs are heathly, friendly. It amazes me how much they have grown. They would love guests and enjoy play time. All i ask is that u tell me your babies schedule and likes and dislikes. I have fenced yard where your dogs can run around play freely and I take dogs to parks and trails. Plenty of treats, and playtime, and love. If you like i can come to your home so your fur babies can feel more comfortable. Home away from home is how it should be. I do pet sit/ Rover on a part-time basis that's why my rates are lower than most.

I have two dogs of my own -Summer, an 11 year old terrier mix and Dottie, an 8 year old Rottweiler - both adopted from rescue organizations. While I don’t have a lot of experience with cats, I am happy to feed them, give them some love, and take care of the litter box. Feel free to reach out to me with any inquiries! I look forward to talking with you soon! I am your go-to for Saturday and Sunday dog walks and pet drop ins, as I work full time Monday-Friday. I have two dogs of my own, so I understand how important weekend routines are! I will treat your home as I would my own and will follow all guidelines you have set for your pet. Every family and pet has their own needs, preferences, and routines and I am happy to follow any guidelines you provide!

About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. My first actual pet I got to call my own was a cockapoo puppy named Duke, he was my first lap dog too. However, don’t let my baby fool you I have also had hounds that screamed and ran across the yard and the house. I am experienced with cats and dogs with special needs to. My grandmothers and friends animals all have had dietary or medical needs that I never mind having to help take care of. My passion is loving animals and making sure they live a happy life. Trust that your fur baby will be in safe and caring hands. I am just recently out of the military working as a kitchen supervisor on city cruises. It can get boring and lonely, so I have decided on my free time to give my services to those who might need someone to pop their head in and check on their babies or fully stay if needed. I have an apartment that is in a fenced in area in Portsmouth Va. I’m open to any sized dog and will take them out as much as they would need. I live near a park and that’s where I would walk your special. If you have a loving feline you can trust I will not book them with any canines for their mental health and safety unless you have two pets out more that have lived together I will not take in more than one animal at a time.

About: I am a devoted pet parent and caretaker. I have had many childhood pets including the care of family/family friends animals. I have 8 years of experienced pet care. My responsibilities include; administering medication (not including injections or rectal administration), providing fresh food/water, and maintaining a safe exciting environment! My life is mostly revolved around my cats, dog and hamster! I currently am a part time student unemployed. My schedule is very flexible, so I have much free time to care and keep company for your critters! I always ensure certain items stay stationary especially when they are fragile or toxic to my own and clients pets! Dogs/cats are quite curious so I’ve developed an extra set of eyes for their tomfoolery. Most importantly to gain the trust and comfort of your pets I typically greet them while sitting on the floor, so they aren’t intimidated and can sniff away!

“I love Monique as our dog walker! My Vicky enjoys her walks and is happy when I return home! ?? I also love the comments on my Rover card from Monique! She understands my dog like a person ❤️? The best dog walker I’ve had thus far!! ??”

“Nothing but positive things to say. I reached out for some help walking my dog a couple times a day during the week before a holiday weekend when boarding and daycares were booked. My dog came home after each walk tired, happy and sporting a silly grin. By the 2nd day, he was barking and wagging his tail in anticipation instead of alerting to strangers. By the 3rd day he was whining waiting by the door. Needless to say, he made a new friend and everyone is super happy.”
