Abby is great and very reliable. She has walked our dogs many times and when we need dog walking we think of her first. We know our dogs are in good hands with her and they are very happy with her. Highly recommended!

Kennedy does a great job walking and playing with my dog. I love getting the pictures while I'm at work. I would trust her to care for my pets if I went out of town - she seems like she really cares and wants to do what's best for the animals.

About: I've spent years working in rescues, boarding facilities, and veterinary clinics, giving me hands-on experience with pets of every age, temperament, and medical need. These roles taught me to provide calm, compassionate care, especially for seniors, special-needs/disabled pets, and those who need a little extra patience. I'm confident, attentive, and committed to making every pet (and owner) feel safe, understood, and supported. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly schedule, and I make it a priority. I'm consistently available on Tuesdays, and from Friday afternoons until Monday mornings. I can also take additional bookings as my schedule allows, depending on distance. I'm flexible, communicative, and always willing to work with clients to find a time that fits their needs. In your home, I follow your pet's normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I handle feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box maintenance or potty breaks, medications, and any special needs or mobility support. I'm gentle, patient, and attentive, making sure your pet gets companionship, enrichment, and supervision while you're away. I also keep your home tidy, update you regularly, and ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for at all times.

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was a teenager, both for and outside of my family. I became a certified veterinarian assistant and have worked at animal clinics for seven years. I am able to do both simple and advanced skills like dog walking, drop-in play visits and administering medications. With having a diabetic dog, I have experience administering insulin and understanding the responsibilities that come with those cases. I currently work full-time at the animal clinic, but have availability during lunch hours during the work week. On Fridays and the weekends I am more flexible. At this time, I am unable to provide services at my home. In the future I will revisit that as a possible added opportunity to care for your pets.

I am available to care for your babies! Currently I work full time, 8-5, with weekends and holidays off. Thank you for considering me and please message me for any questions you may have. I always pay close attention to an animals body language and actions to make sure they are always safe and feeling okay! I would give your pet a great, comfortable environment as if they were my own. I wouldn’t want anyone doing less for mine, so why would I do less for someone else’s pet?

About: I am a big believer that humans need dogs as much as dogs need humans and I would love to be that human for your dog! I am currently a student at Virginia College of Osteopathic Medicine earning a Masters degree in Biomedical science. I have classes during the week from 8-12, but spend every minute after class home in my apartment with the exception of an hour break to go to the gym. On the weekends i am often studying, so I will be home at all times. I have a small one bedroom apartment that has plenty of room for a dog to have free range. I allow dogs on the furniture and bed so that is no issue. There is plenty of room for a crate, which i would prefer if I am leaving the dog alone while I am at class. There is an excellent 2 mile walking trail around my complex that I do daily and would love to take your dog as my companion!

About: Growing up with large breeds (Bernese Mountain Dog & German Shepard), I’ve always been a lover of all pets, especially dogs. Since relocating to Blacksburg area for work 7 years ago, I’ve pet sat for a variety of animals in the region, ranging from puppies to senior dogs with specific medical needs. It would be an honor to meet and care for your pets! I work full time at VT (a few days are remote/week) and part time at a brewery, although both schedules are quite flexible. I am happy to adjust schedules or remote days to meet your pets needs! I don’t have any pets in my current home, so I’m flexible to either board at my townhouse or stay at the pets home! I offer both options to all families and willing to drive up to an hour distance.

About: Hello! My name is Tessa. 🐾 Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember & caring for them is truly second nature to me. ❤️ From playful puppies or curious kittens.. to gentle senior pets. I’ve loved & looked after them all: including birds, fish & reptiles! What I’ve learned over the years is simple, every pet has their own personality & they deserve care that fits who they are! Some pets need extra play & energy while others just want a calm, reassuring presence. I pride myself on tuning in to what your pet needs the most. Whether that’s belly rubs, long walks or a quiet snuggle. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone new. That’s why I treat every pet like they’re my own. Patience, reliability & plenty of love are top priority! You can count on me to keep your pet safe, happy & comfortable while you’re away. Whether you have a bouncy pup or a sweet senior cat, I’d love the chance to give them the care & attention they deserve! As a dedicated parent myself, i understand the true importance of routine & reliability! Currently I am available weekdays ( Monday through Friday ) for dog walks or drop-ins during the daytime. This schedule allows me to give your pets consistency & focused attention while you’re at work or running errands! You can count on me to be punctual, caring & fully present for every visit: whether your pup needs a midday energy burn or some company while you’re away, i’m here to help! When caring for your pets, safety & trust is KEY 🌟 I treat every animal like family as if they were my own: making sure they are secure, comfortable & most importantly.. stress-free at all times! I pay close attention to their behaviors ( good & bad ) routines & their surrounding environment to ensure that they feel safe & happy whether we’re out on a walk or relaxing at home! Building trust with both pets & their people is a top priority of mine as I believe in open communication, gentle handling & creating a calm, positive atmosphere during every visit!

About: I’ve been working with animals for several years— starting with a veterinary science-focused high school, earning my bachelor’s in pre-veterinary medicine, and now as a 4th-year veterinary student preparing to become a veterinarian in May. I’ve cared for neighbors’ and friends’ pets, worked at a dog boarding facility, and gained valuable hands-on experience at two veterinary hospitals. I’m comfortable with administering medications and providing care for puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. My availability changes quite often as I am a vet student on clinical rotations so my schedule is not consistent. I frequently update my calendar to reflect my current availability! I prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort during walks and drop-in visits by closely observing them and following your routines/instructions. I’ll always communicate promptly with you if anything arises to ensure your pet’s happiness and well-being.

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.
