“Emma is great! The kitties liked her (even the one who doesn’t really like people) and she took great care of them while we were gone for a long weekend. We’ll definitely be calling upon her for help in the future!”


“Meagan is nothing short of amazing! I have a golden retriever and a lab puppy and you can really tell she loves them both so dearly and they love her just a much! She does everything as we ask, always on time, and very easy to communicate with! She even bought my golden a present for his birthday 🥹 I can’t recommend Meagan enough and she will always be my first choice for a caretaker for my pups!”


“Shanna was absolutely great with our cat while we were away. She has excellent communication and always made us feel comfortable during drop-in visits by sending plenty of pictures and updates daily. We highly recommend Shanna and would definitely request her to pet sit again in the future.”

About: With over ten years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds, I have developed a deep understanding of their unique needs and personalities. From playful puppies to senior cats, I provide attentive, compassionate care to ensure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and well-loved. My commitment is to treat each animal with the same respect and dedication I would give my own. I’m currently working part tome while also attending school but can provide frequent check ins for your pets while also provide house sitting on weekends if needed. I provide dependable in-home pet care, ensuring your pet feels safe and comfortable in their own familiar environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering medications, or simply offering companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is well cared for while you’re away.
“Kirra was great! She sent very detailed messages every day while I was away and took great care of my cat. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pet while they are away”

About: I’ve had experience watching dogs for my entire life. I know how to give medicine, including injections, to dogs and cats. I am also certified in first aid and have completed a “Stop the Bleed” course. I’m available most days with a few days notice. I am able to come over and walk your dogs or just spend time with your pets. I can easily come to you and do whatever is needed. Walks, feedings, etc. I am very attentive and love to play with your pets.
“Karlie was so sweet and took such good care of my cat, Ralph. He really cuddled up to her which made me happy since it was my first time leaving him for a work trip. I will absolutely contact Karlie again for pet sitting! Thank you!”

About: I have been a dog owner for 10 years! I also have owned cats and ferrets in the past! I have experience with dogs ranging from puppies to seniors. I currently live in the Virginia Beach area but live and go to school at William and Mary where I have pets I care for regularly! I do work about 20 hours a week at my regular job but typically do not work until later in the afternoon. When I have taken care of pets in the past, I found it to be very easy to fit it in to my schedule. I will treat and respect your space like it is my own space. I will be sure to care for your pets as if they are my own.
“Leighanne is amazing and I highly recommend her for any of your pets needs. She’s friendly, warm and my dogs were immediately obsessed with her. She took amazing care of my babies and kept me updated during every visit. We will definitely be booking with Leighanne anytime we need a pet sitter!”

About: I've grown up surrounded by animals my entire life, and that hands-on experience is what truly sets me apart. I was raised with three cats (2 indoor, 1 outdoor), caring for them from kittenhood all the way through end-of-life care, including demanding daily routines and administering medication. I also have two dogs of my own: a Mini Australian Shepherd I raised from a puppy and personally trained. He’s so smart he keeps me on my toes, which means I know exactly how to handle high-energy, high-drive breeds and the escape artists of the dog world. The other is a large pitty mix we adopted at age two who came to us with leash pulling, reactivity, excessive barking, and rough play habits, all of which I've worked through and successfully managed. I know how to confidently handle dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Beyond cats and dogs, I've owned two guinea pigs, a hamster, and fish, so I understand the specific and often overlooked needs of small pets too. I've also assisted my sister in fostering cats, many of whom were shy, post-surgical, or required medication and special feeding instructions, so I'm completely comfortable with pets that need a little extra patience and TLC. Most recently, I pet sat a kitten over spring break 2026, and I'm always happy to sit for other pet owners' animals as well. As a sophomore in Alpha Chi Omega, I bring the same reliability, respect, and communication to pet sitting that I bring to everything I do. I treat every pet as if they were my own, follow your routines to the letter, and love keeping owners in the loop with regular updates, photos, and videos, as often as you'd like. If you're looking for someone experienced, trustworthy, and genuinely passionate about animals, I'm your person! I currently only have one exam left, so my schedule is essentially wide open! I'm in Blacksburg and available May 9–12 and May 16–22, with virtually nothing on my plate during those windows. Whether you need someone for a full house sit, multiple check-ins throughout the day, early morning visits, or late night drop-ins, I can make it work. Flexibility is my strong suit right now, so don't hesitate to reach out no matter the timing or frequency! I'm happy to care for pets both in my home and in yours! For in-home sitting and visits at your place, I'm completely comfortable following whatever routine, rules, and setup you have in place, your home, your way. If you'd like your pet to stay with me, I welcome that too! Just note that I live in an apartment, so I don't have a fenced-in yard, but my complex has a dog park and is surrounded by beautiful neighborhood nature trails that are perfect for walks and exploring. I'd also ask that you send everything your pet needs along with them (crate, food/water bowls, bed, toys, leash, etc.) so they have the comfort of their own familiar belongings, which is honestly better for them anyway!

About: I've been around cats since birth and have years of hands-on experience. I understand feline behavior and provide gentle, attentive care for every kitty and dogs and all animals. I’m available almost every day and can easily work around your schedule. Morning, afternoon, or evening visits whatever your pet needs, I’m happy to help! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get playtime or walks if needed, and lots of love and attention. Whether it’s a cat, dog, or another pet, I’m patient and gentle, always respecting their personality and needs. I also keep the space clean and can send updates, so you know your pet is happy while you’re away.
“Gabrielle was amazing! We were out of the country and our pet sitter had to leave early on our last day as we were traveling back home. We worked everything out with Gabrielle through the app. She showed up when we needed her to, and she did everything we needed so we didn’t worry about our babies as we were traveling home. I will definitely use her again, and I would recommend her without hesitation. And our babies seemed to love her!”
“Me and my 3 boys absolutely love Cyntra!!! They are super excited when she drops in. And my heart and mind is at ease because I know she loves and cares for them like her own.”


“I've only used Paula once so far, but she was wonderful. Booked her for 7 days, and she was always on time or early. My dog, Sirius, can be a pain with new people and took him a bit to warm up. She took him on a walk, and he was hooked. I will definitely use again if she is available.”

“Highly recommend! At the meet and greet she was so easy to talk to and our dog Luna loved her! While we were away I didnt worry if callie and luna were taken care of, she sent pictures of them getting all the love and attention. I think our house was cleaner than when we left too, 10/10 will be using every time we go out of town!”

“She did a great job with my babies. I will definitely call her again. She also noticed I had dropped my purse outside after I left. She contacted right away and put it inside for me. That was extra awesome!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs through pet ownership and dog sitting and really enjoy having them around. I have a fenced yard and two small dogs at home. I send daily updates with photos and videos and follow each dog’s routine as closely as possible. We keep our home clean and wash beddings and covers between stays to help provide a comfortable environment for all dogs. I only take small dogs since I have two small dogs of my own, and that’s what works best in our home. It keeps things calm and safe for everyone. I work morning shifts on weekdays, so dogs get potty breaks before work and plenty of playtime, walks, and attention when I get home. On weekends, we’re usually home and spend lots of time with our guests. If the weather cooperates and your dog enjoys walks, we’re happy to take them to nearby parks and outdoor areas. We’re happy to follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions. We know every dog is different and want them to feel comfortable while they’re with us. Pets stay in a supervised home with a fenced yard and two small dogs. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, potty breaks, medications, and any special instructions, and I always supervise dogs during playtime and yard time. I also send regular photo and video updates so owners can stay connected and feel at ease during their pet’s stay.
