About: I've had many years of experience between keeping my own animals as well as house sitting or just dropping in to check on your pets! I also offer the same service for reptiles! Preferably would like to service closer to Wytheville but will travel in some cases, extra fees will apply depending on distance! I currently have a full time job but I am looking to quit so I can focus on doing nails and going to school part time for that but I need a side hustle! I live in a school bus so I don't really have tons of room to take care of pets there but I am more than willing to come to their homes, I'd prefer that the pet is comfortable as possible and I cannot stay overnight in a home but I can stay as long as needed to make sure the care requirements are met

About: My home is where I tell people "they have me trained well". I love all animals and believe they deserve the best of treatment as they give to us so unconditionally. Any animal in our household is taken care of as they are our children. Our older dog was raised to be kind to smaller animals and seems to think anything smaller than him is his to take care of. We taught this by stroking gently and telling him to "be nice" this is just a "baby". Animals are never hit or disciplined by any harsh means, we reinforce good behavior. Our dogs get brushed every night around 7:00 and remind us if we miss the time and we treat them to a small snack every evening around 8:30 which they know also.

About: I am a second year vet school student. I am able to handle all kinds of pets, give medications, handle emergencies, and provide excellent animal care. I am currently home for the summer from vet school, so I have a flexible schedule which gives me lots of time to be with your pet! I can follow whatever instructions you need me to when visiting and caring for your pet. I can let them out, play with them, or walk them if needed.

About: I have previously worked with Flying Fur, a doggy daycare and boarding service located in Newport, VA. Here, I gained experience working with various breeds and temperaments, and I would be happy to help you with your animal while you are away. In high school, I took small animal care as well as vet science, and have interacted with several of the therapy dogs on Radford University Campus. I am currently a college student working part-time, and I’d love to help care for your pet on my free time!! I am free weekly in the mornings and evenings! Can’t wait to meet your pets! During the walks, I allow the dogs to go at their own pace to get a sense of security with me and I love to reward them if they are doing good!

About: I have been rescuing animals since I was a teenager! Dogs have always been what really make me smile. Although I am Nurse for people, I like to think I’m an even better Nurse for doggos! I’ve cared for animals with conditions from mange to heart failure to difficulty with mobility. While your baby is with me, I will treat them like my own! That includes all the snuggles and love they want! Pet care is second nature for me. I love getting to meet new babies! My pups love other animals as well. Between my wife and I, someone is always home. All animals are different and prefer different things. Our house has a fenced in yard so you baby will be able to sniff around and get comfortable with their surroundings without being on a leash.

About: Hello! I love all types of pets and currently have two dogs of my own. I am a student at Virginia-Maryland college of veterinary medicine trying to earn some extra money by doing what I love, playing with pets. I have experience with all types of pets at varying sizes and personalities. During my undergraduate career, I raised two Seeing Eye Dogs and helped other raisers with training. During this time, I worked at a veterinary hospital, participated in animal specific events like vaccination clinics, and groomed. From healthy puppies and kittens to seniors who need medication, I have seen it all and am prepared to help with whatever your pet needs. I hope I can meet your fur babies and shower them with love while you’re away. I offer additional grooming services, ask about them if your interested. As someone who owns two dogs, pet care is a priority in my life. Both of my pups get plenty of one-on-one time as well as long walks and enrichment in the house. During the day, the pups are crated while I am at school, but if my boyfriend is off of work they get to run around and play. As soon as I get home the dogs get taken out and fed. Along with daily care, I take care of all of their grooming and medical needs as well. I currently live in apartment complex which has a dog play area for your furry friends to get plenty of exercise. There is also a trail connected to the complex which will be utilized for long walks and plenty of sniffing opportunities. Both of my pups are very friendly and would be happy to be your pet’s playmate during their stay.

About: I've had a dog all my life except for the brief interlude (1965-1970) while I served in the Marine Corps. Since my kids have grown and left home my dogs are now my babies. I'm retired and have a lot of time on my hands. I'd like to have the option of caring for someones pet now and then to give me something to do. I love dogs and rarely met a dog that doesn't love me right back. My dogs are almost always with me. Excepting - going to the store in the summer when the temperature in the car would be too hot. I make sure my dogs are safe and comfortable.

About: Ever since I was born I had an animal right by my side . I have learned to take care of animals and provide for them. I have taken care of friends, family and neighbors pets in the past. I also have worked at a dog daycare called tail chasers so I have experience with big dog groups. I’m good with cats as well . I’m experienced with walking multiple dogs at a time because I got 3 myself. I’m currently working 3:30 am to 12:00 pm so I will have plenty time to spend with your animals. I’m free on the weekends as well . Willing to come to your place to house sit and take care of your animals. I have done that in the past for people. Willing to also stop by and give water, food and walks with some play time on the side .

“Madison took care of both of our dogs while we were staying at Claytor Lake State Park. She came over twice during the day and even did a meet and greet the night before. She loves dogs and took great care of our Penny and Lucy. We would definitely use her again and would recommend her to anybody. One of our dogs is human-shy and she warmed up right away to Madison!”

About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all ages and understand how to meet their unique needs! Whether it’s a playful puppy in training stages or supporting a senior pup with extra love and patience. I’m dependable, caring, and always focused on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I'm a lifelong dog lover, and have had experience taking care of my own 4 pups! Along with sitting for family and friends over the years. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I currently have a part-time job at Montgomery hospital and attend Radford University during the school year, but I still have plenty of availability outside of classes. A majority of my classes are done by 11 am. And Wednesdays are my busiest/fullest days. I enjoy spending my free time with animals, and I’m great at balancing my responsibilities while making sure pets get the attention and care they need! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make sure to follow their usual routines to help the pet feel safe and comfortable. I give lots of attention, playtime, and care, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions! Whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, or favorite walking routes. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family.

About: So I have always been a loner in life. I'm that person that wants to take in the strays. I always say the animals choose me. In today's society no one has time to sit home all day and play with their pets. Thats what im here for. I can potty train, Crate train, and leash train. I love to go on walks and send lots of updates. So pet sitting is my only thing going on at the moment. I accept last minute emergencies, or plan ahead visits. I can keep them all day or however long you need me to. If you need a middle of the night drop off, im your girl. My pets run free. I don't leash my own but if yours is a runner I have a tie out or I can put them on their leash for a nice walk. At night, mine sleep in their kennels with the door open. Its kinda just a bed with walls.

About: I have worked in a boarding facility for two years. I have experience with taking care of pets and walking. I have taken care of diabetic pets as well as given any medication to those who need them as well. I am currently home for the summer and have time while home to pet sit and watch your furry babies. i love working with animals and if i can help then i would love to. I would care for them as if they were my own and make sure they get the best care given. I will watch them and give them any love and affection they may need as well as attend to their needs(i.e. using the bathroom, walks, cuddles etc.)

About: I’m a trusted pet sitter with a lifetime of experience caring for animals of all sizes. From energetic puppies needing extra playtime and long walks to senior dogs who prefer gentle care and snuggles, I adapt to each pet’s unique needs. My family has owned dogs of all sizes, and I’ve also cared for birds, fish, and even plants while owners are away. As a college student without a pet of my own, I’m excited for every opportunity to give your pets the love, attention, and exercise they deserve—whether it’s a walk, hike, run, or simply keeping them comfortable and happy at home! I am currently a second semester senior at Virginia Tech so I have plenty of time during the week and some weekends (mornings and afternoons preferred) to play, walk, and hang with your pups! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I ensure they feel safe and comfortable by maintaining their usual routines. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, and give them plenty of love and attention. For energetic pets, I include walks, playtime, or outdoor activities, while more calm pets get the gentle care and companionship they need. I also keep the home tidy, respect the client’s space, and send regular updates with photos, so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.

“On time, great communication, very polite! Will gladly work with Molly again!”

About: i’ve worked as a dog daycare worker at petsmart last year and have always grown up taking care of and training my pets and took 2 years of veterinary classes i’m currently a college student and will be coming home for a month and will have plenty of time to myself and wanted to spend it helping take care of pets the way i would want someone to take care of mine. I will always put ur pets safety a over everything else. If you have any additional concerns I am always willing to talk and create the best plan to keep ur best friend safe.

About: I have grown up with pets my whole life. I have had chickens for about 7 years and 4 dogs for over 15 years. I also have some experience with other animals as well. I grew up with three German shepherds and a crazy hyper Jack Russell. We bred our two german shepherds and kept one puppy from the litter so I do have experience with puppies and the patience to take care of them. The two shepherds I grew up with passed away due to sicknesses so I also have experience taking care of sick dogs and giving them the extra special care they need! I have also taken care of friends pets numerous times. I have always had a love for caring for animals and getting to spend quality time with them. Growing up surrounded by all sorts of pets has given me the skills of patience and how to give the correct care and attention each specific pet needs. I’m currently in school for the medical field and have a pretty full schedule in the mornings during the week. But I have a clear schedule Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and am available in the afternoons during the week. I live in the countryside with many acres of open land so I have plenty of space your pets can roam around, play, and not have to worry about keeping them on a leash when they are being watched. If my client is not comfortable with letting them go without a leash I also have an extremely large fenced in area that small dogs to large dogs cannot get out of. I do have a Jack Russell who is old so I keep other animals away from her to make sure she is safe and not at risk of being hurt since she is older. I also have a German shepherd and she is all love and cuddles and enjoys play time with other dogs and would love another furry friend to play with!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 8 years old. I grew up doing a pet sitting company I made when I was little called Campbells Critter Care. I have some skill with training dogs from watching my grandpa train hunting dogs and my grandma doing obedience classes. I am temporarily unemployed but once I get a job It will only be part time so I will have plenty of time to fit your pup or kitty into my schedule I have a decent sized fenced in back yard. And already have food bowls and beds for dogs and cats! I have 2 cats but they are both very dog and cat friendly!

About: Hi there! My name is Cecile and I live in Radford, Virginia with my husband, 2 teenagers and 2 cats. We have a house with a fenced yard in a peaceful area. I am a homemaker, natural healer and gardener, and I particularly enjoy having pets around me. I have worked as a pet-sitter for 5 years, including 1 year full-time. I am available only for boarding, as I can't leave my home overnight. Your pet will have all the freedom, care and attention that he needs, as we all love animals at home. We will keep your pet's habits as much as possible even in a new environment for him. Do not hesitate to contact me for more information! Sincerely, Cecile I am with your pet like I would be with a friend. I talk to them, listen to their needs and spend time with them. I will care for your pet as if it is mine. I don't have any pet myself. I will not unleash dogs unless you tell me it's ok. I will send you pictures regularly. I will not invite anyone at your home. I am home all day and can give your pet 100% of my attention. He can sleep with us at night if that's his habit. Your pet will have lots of attention, half an acre to run in and even walks if needed. We will respect his schedule and habits as much as possible.
