Pet Sitting Rappahannock Academy

About: My husband and I are huge dog lovers and have cared for our sweet dog for 5 years. Our days consist of long walks, playing fetch in my fenced in yard, and lots of snuggles. :) Right now my husband and I are available on the weekends for pet care, however, starting in June we will be off for 3 months of the summer and will be available 24/7! We have one dog named Lily. She is a very friendly golden doodle who loves to play with other dogs. We have a fenced in yard, big enough for fetch and zoomies. I can crate your dog or let them roam the house, your preference. I can administer medicines orally if needed. We love snuggles and loving on your pets!

I am free all day Tuesday, and Sunday. But I’m also free after 4pm any other day . I can pet sit overnight any day and do drop in visits in the morning, evening, and at night. I am unable to board dogs at my own home but at a clients home I can take your dogs for both short and long walks. I can even take them to a park for a nature hike. I will feed them at their scheduled times and if wanted by owners I can crate them. If medication is needed I am comfortable with giving it to them. I will give them plenty of love and lots of playtime. If wanted I can also give nail trims, brushing, ear cleaning and baths as I work full time as a pet bather.

“Andrew took fantastic care of my cat, Castle, while I was away. He sent daily updates and pictures, which made me feel at ease and be able to enjoy my trip. Also, my cat loved his boots so much that I'll have to get him his own pair!! I cannot recommend Andrew enough for your pet sitting needs. Your home and pets will be in great hands.”

About: I began caring for my cat, Tori, who has allergies and respiratory issues, and through that experience I learned how to give medication, monitor breathing, and provide gentle emotional support. Taking care of her taught me how deeply pets trust us and how important consistent, loving care is. I want to bring that same compassion to every pet I look after. I currently don’t work part time or attend school, so I have plenty of time every day, including weekends, to care for your pets with full attention and love. 1️⃣ Clean, safe, and caring pet care 2️⃣ Safe, gentle, and loving care 3️⃣ Hygienic and caring pet service 4️⃣ Clean hands, safe pets, happy hearts 5️⃣ Gentle care with safety first

About: Hey! I’m Kaitlynn, I have 7 years of experience with animals. I was on rover a few years ago for 5-6 years and took a break after I had kids. I have worked with a travel vet for 2 years (before kids) and dog grooming! My love for animals hasn’t changed, I’m recently new to Rover again because I love working with animals and would love to start to get out there again. I give updates often and will have plenty of photos to share with you! My dogs are super friendly to all animals as they lived on a farm before. I’m hoping to help families while providing for mine:) Pet care fits naturally into my daily life because I own my own business and work for myself, which gives me the flexibility to prioritize animals throughout the day. I can easily build my schedule around feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins without rushing or being tied to a strict 9–5 job. Caring for pets blends perfectly with my active, hands-on lifestyle, and I genuinely enjoy having animals as part of my routine while I manage my business responsibilities. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment where they can relax and feel comfortable. I make sure they get plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and any feeding or medication schedules are followed closely. I also have two friendly dogs of my own who are very social and do well with other animals, which can be great for pets that enjoy companionship. In a client’s home, I follow their routine exactly to help pets feel secure in their familiar environment. I respect their space, keep everything clean and consistent, and make sure pets receive the same level of care, love, and attention they would get from their owner.

“Victoria did a wonderful job, like always. She really cares for the 4 legged friends entrusted to her. We will defitely continue to use her services”

About: Avid dog lover. I grew up surrounded by small dogs. I currently have 2 big dogs that love to play but they also do well with my parents small dogs when we visit. Willing to have your dogs come join the party at the house. We have a fence in yard. I live with my fiance and we are willing to do what it takes to make your pup more comfortable. Pets are family. Nothing worse than a bad dog sitter. Will send frequent pictures of your pups while you’re away and give them the perfect amount of cuddles, walks, and pets. I’m a teacher. My schedule is pretty flexible. My fiance and I have different schedules so pets won’t be alone too long at our house. They will have plenty of bathroom breaks. I have 2 playful big dogs. They are good with all dogs. I usually keep my pups on a certain part of the house when they are alone but they have plenty of space. If your pup is potty trained I have no problem letting them roam the house. My pups are curious pups which is why they are only in part of the house. My dogs are trained to ring a bell to go to the bathroom so I have a bell by the backdoor. I’m a teacher but I have plenty of time to give your dog the appropriate care they need to feel comfortable during the week and weekend. I have a fence in yard and my pups are playful so they would have fun playing with your pups. We also walk them every evening.

“Stephanie has been a reliable and amazing dog sitter for my two pups. She is very responsive when I reach out and so understanding and patient with my anxious and shy dog. 10/10 would recommend ❤️”
