Dog Walking Richmond

“Really appreciate Lucas making sure our boy, Rhody gets a walk and fuss whilst we are out for long periods of time during the week. Thank you!”

About: I’ve been working with and caring for animals my entire life. My experience includes working as a vet tech, groomer, trap & release, spay & nueter programs, pet sitting, dog walking, animal transport, rescue and fostering. I am also comforable with administering medications and working with all personality traits. I understand the pack dynamic and am not intimidated when handling multiple pet type homes and dogs of all sizes. I am patient and animals respond well to my calm and confident nature. I work full time through out the school year and part time during the summer and can easily adjust my work schedule to accommodate drop in visits and dog walking services. Visiting pets can be crated if needed or gated in their own room while I am away from home. While I am home they will be free to roam the house and enjoy outside time safely in my fenced in yard.

“Casey is fantastic. Met new loves her and was excited to see her each day.”

“Isis was very professional and helped walk our dog Reba 3 days. My dog is very timid but Isis did not disappoint, she helped us out so much! Communication was also top notch and I really appreciate that. Thanks Isis! Will be booking you again in the future!”

About: I grew up on a farm and have raised puppies, kittens, cats, and dogs my whole life. I recently lost my elder dog, so I’m happy to spend time with yours. Looking forward to spending time, walking and playing with your dog, cat, kitten or puppy. I work part time so I’m very flexible and active! I am available to stay with your pet, and give them exercise and lots of attention needed to keep them happy! I am familiar with picky eaters and administering medication if needed.

“I appreciate Rachel’s prompt walking of my dog!”

“Erin is absolutely fantastic and our dogs love her! I was able to connect with her same day and she was over at a moments notice. Immediately trusted her with my high energy German short hair to run/walk off leash. Birdie loves Erin and so do we!”

“Kelsey was great! She followed all suggestions for training a new puppy on a leash, was on time, professional and very communicative. We will absolutely book again!”

About: Hi, I’m Clara! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve worked with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from tiny parrots to towering horses—and I’m confident handling everything in between. I have experience with: • Puppies and young dogs (training, socialization, and lots of patience!) • Caring for a dog with frequent seizures and special health needs • Working at a large dog rescue in Mexico, rehabilitating street dogs with behavioral and medical issues of all sizes • Administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions • Senior pet care with extra attention and gentleness (my dog is epileptic so I know how to administer all seizure meds and the full protocol) • Basic training and reinforcing good behavior • Horse care from years of working in barns (feeding, grooming, handling) • Volunteering for a year at a parrot rescue, learning about specialized bird care I’m active and outdoorsy, so I love taking energetic dogs for runs, hikes, or long walks—but I’m just as happy giving older or calmer pets plenty of snuggles. Safety, compassion, and keeping your pets happy are my top priorities, and I’ll always send plenty of photo updates while you’re away. I’m currently completely open and very flexible with scheduling. I’m not working another job right now, so I can adjust to your pet’s exact needs—whether that’s early mornings, late nights, or last-minute bookings. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, pets must be friendly with other dogs, as I have my own, and everyone’s well-being is a top priority. We have a fully fenced yard for safe play and fresh air, and I love going on regular walks to keep pets happy and healthy. I’m very routine-oriented, so I’ll follow your pet’s feeding, exercise, and care schedule exactly as you request—whether in my home or yours. I make sure each animal feels secure, loved, and stress-free, with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and affection.

“Nicole was amazing with my lab. Somehow managed to get all her energy out and give her all the love she needed. Not an easy task! I would highly recommend!”

About: I love pets and house keeping and would love to help you with yours! I take pride in offering thorough care to put you at ease when you go away. I look forward to working for you and your pets! I work a part time job that is extremely flexible and allows me to work from home, meaning I can look after your pets in the exact way you want! I can spend as little or as much time as you want with them! I want your pets to feel like they are on vacay with me! I keep to them on their same routine while also giving them a little extra care since you are away. That way they won't be too sad while you are gone.

About: I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have experience with both playful puppies and senior dogs. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always keep you updated! I’m a college student here in South Carolina who really misses my pets back home, so I’m looking for chances to care for other people’s pets while I’m at school. Spending time with animals — whether walking dogs, feeding cats, or just giving them attention — makes me happy, helps me manage stress, and gives me something meaningful to look forward to outside of my classes. In my home, pets enjoy a safe and relaxed environment. I have a friendly golden retriever who’s trained to stay in the yard, and a bunny who’s free to move around the house as he wishes. I make sure everyone stays comfortable and safe, supervise outdoor time, and always follow your care instructions closely—whether your pet is with me or I’m caring for them in your home.

About: I have loved and cared for all kinds of animals since I was young. Having every animal from cats to dogs, birds and guinea pigs, hamsters, snakes, lizards, turtles, and birds! I have experience training dogs as well as training service dogs. I can care for animals from birth to their senior years. I can safely bathe animals, feed, administer medication, and give souch love to them! I have a very flexible routine that allows me to accommodate the needs of many pet parents! I can make adjustments as needed and am happy to spend time with your loved four legged friend! I keep a clean, safe space for the animals I visit with. Unless otherwise noted, I keep a variety of treats and toys on hand and keep a large gravity water bowl available at all times.

About: Pets don't need much to be happy. Most are content with some peanut butter for dogs, or maybe a treat for the kittens! We all know that a little patients goes a long way, and we don't always have to understand to be able to help, and give good happy lives :) I'm here to help! Right now I'm fully available. Please consider me a full time pet manager, and I mean I'll walk! I'll talk! And I'll adapt to whatever it is you need done! I care for pets with the focus on maintaining consistency for the pets. So whatever the owner wants. It's important to lay it all out, and allow for small errors on all sides, and later we will build everything we need to succeed and give vitality to the pets!

About: Hi there! I'm Jamie. I've always had a strong love and connection with animals. I've had cats since I was a little girl and I'd take in and love a skunk, squirrel and chipmunk if I could! I've had 2 dogs of my own throughout the years, right now I have 1 dog, 2 cats and a bearded dragon all who get along very very well with each other as well as other animals and people. I was a head Vet Technician at an animal hospital for 3 years. There I dealt not only with feeding, bathing/grooming, the handling of sick and healthy animals of all kinds, boarding, surgery recovery, medicine administration and overall care of the animals but also cleaning, sanitizing and bedding of sleep/living areas for them. I have experience with handling plenty of loving, friendly fur babies and I do also have experience with those few feisty stubborn ones! I get it we all have bad days! I'm a friendly, outgoing, enthusiastic animal lover full of love and excitement for the babies! I understand life can get busy trying to provide the best for our pets and I'm here to help! Now accepting new clients! Looking forward to hearing from you! =) I am self employed and basically make my own schedule so my availability for your pet care is rather flexible. Openings are as seen in the calendar and will be updated as appointments are scheduled. I typically start about 10am until about 6-7pm (drop ins and daycare) but again I am open depending on what it is you need/are looking for. Please feel free to reach out and we can discuss what you're looking for, what works best for you and we can plan accordingly. No matter what the pet is cared for precisely as the client asks. In their home any messes from pets will always been cleaned up even if just for a pop in. Your home is your home and that is respected 100 percent. For my home, the pet still will go by precisely what the client asks. They are accepted into my home as if they are another one of my own pets. In this house the animals are allowed on the furniture and to sleep in bed with me if that's what they are comfortable with. I live on a dead end with a small creek behind my home. I have long leads and plenty of grass in a safe, secluded, quiet, peaceful, animal friendly area for potty breaks and outside play time. I have some clients that like to have a picture sent to them of their fur baby each visit which I'm always more than happy to do! Who doesn't love receiving a little photo shoot of their beloved pet!?

“Heath was great with Jasper! Jasper warmed up very quickly and clearly enjoyed his walk. I received lots of pictures and a detailed description of the walk. We will definitely use Heath in the future!”

About: I have experience professionally dog walking, pet sitting, and experience taking care of cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, exotic birds, and chickens. Pets are our family and I am prepared to treat them as such! I will make sure that your furry (or feathery) friends are well taken care of, loved, and safe while with me, whether it be a housesit, drop in visit, or walk. No requests are too much! I know we all want the best service for our pets and I am prepared to give that :) since I am now on summer break, I am fully flexible. Since I am new to this app I have lots of room for new clients, but availability will narrow with time! I am experienced in larger dogs along with many cats, and therefore I am able to provide adequate playtime, attention, food, and positive interactions with both species.

About: Woof! Meow! Don’t be off put by my headline - I am a big fan of both dogs and cats. I love walking dogs and am also available to housesit. I am a full-time writer and I do a lot of my work from home so I am pretty flexible during the week and on weekends! I am available for dog walking, drop ins, and house sitting. I do not offer boarding in my home, but I am more than happy to stay at your home when needed while providing your pets with all the love and care they need! I have experience with all kinds of dogs and of all ages.

“Great communicator!”

About: Fido and Fluffy are important parts or our lives- they are family. My sister has a Great Pyrenees and she loves long walks, playing and lots of sniffing. I also enjoy the fresh air! I started out pet sitting for friends and enjoyed watching their pup grow. It also gave my friends a chance to enjoy needed time for themselves, a quick break or a weekend vacation. I grew up with cats, so love all furry friends. On a fun note, I frequently watch funny cat videos and support local shelters with donations to give back to our community. I would love to get to know your pet! Being self-employed I have a flexible schedule. I can sometimes fit in walks last minute or different times of the day to help you get work done on relax! I would mostly work around your area and routine, so if you have a crate setup or area they like to walk I can work within the environment for familiarity and comfort.
