Dog Walkers in Roanes, VA

About: I am Fear Free Certified, with 2 years of professional experience in animal shelters, and upwards of 5 years personal experience with pets of all shapes and sizes. I specialize is animals who need extra attention, like dogs who struggle with resource guarding or reactivity. My goal is always to relieve any animal of fear, anxiety, or stress. My schedule is open and flexible! I understand that things happen, and we aren’t always able to book a sitter a week in advance. I always do my best to keep my schedule open for same-day bookings Every pet parent does things their own way! I cater to each parent’s routine and rules. If your little one needs a slow and steady approach, I’ll always match their speed. If your dog has high energy and a high prey drive, they’ll be tuckered out and happy by the time I leave.

“Jessica was very accommodating. She was willing to come early, to get my pups out for their morning walk when I was out of town. She was great at communicating and giving updates and pictures. Highly recommend her services. She has alot of experience and I will definitely use her again.”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every pet. I treat each animal like they’re my own, paying close attention to their routine, personality, and comfort. I provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including puppies who need patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who may require extra care, slower walks, or medication support. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and I truly care about making both pets and owners feel at ease. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make it a priority to be reliable and consistent for every booking. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits, depending on your pet’s needs. I plan my day around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they get the attention, feeding, and interaction they’re used to. Whether it’s quick drop-ins or longer visits, I’m committed to being on time and keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets in your home. I take the time to follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, litter box care, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I pay close attention to their behavior and environment to make sure they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home and keep everything clean and tidy, including maintaining litter boxes and feeding areas. I always make sure doors, windows, and entry points are secure, and I’m mindful about preventing escapes—especially with indoor cats. I also provide regular updates with messages and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is to create a calm, safe environment where your pet feels at ease and you have complete peace of mind.

About: Hi! I provide attentive, reliable pet care backed by hands-on experience as a former kennel assistant, pet sitter, and working in a zoo environment. I’ve cared for a wide range of animals and am confident handling different temperaments, energy levels, and routines. Animals have always been a part of my life—I grew up caring for dogs and cats and currently have two pets of my own. This gives me a deep understanding of how important trust, consistency, and communication are when choosing someone to care for your pet. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and personalized experience for every pet, whether that means structured routines, engaging playtime, or gentle companionship. I also provide consistent updates so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. Your pet will be treated with the same care, attention, and respect as my own. Being a stay at home mom, my schedule is open for walks, lots of cuddles, and structured schedules to ensure your fur baby is taken care of as if you were taking care of them yourself. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. With my background as a kennel assistant, I’m very familiar with reading animal behavior, preventing issues before they arise, and handling pets in a calm, controlled way.

“Sheri was great. I asked her to come and do a meet and greet before her and Juliet went on their first walk and she did. Sheri picks Juliet up from my parents place where she does doggy daycare. We work with each other schedules to make sure they align.”

About: I started working at a boarding barn facility when I was 13. With the long list of animals I cared for, taking care of the barn cats and dogs were my favorite. I started studying veterinary care and animals science in high school; during these classes we learn animal behavior, anatomy, and even proper grooming. Now I am looking to start a career in Vet Science! I own 4 cats. Everyday is animal care, from basic feeding, grooming, cleaning to vet visits and cuddles. I’ve owned dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I still work with local farms, so animal care is extremely important to me. Basic care for all animals includes food and clean water everyday. Litter gets scooped once a day and dogs get let out however many times they need. I am 100% willing to do extra care as needed for the animals and clients!

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of personal and others’ pets from an early age. I’ve worked in a nature center taking care of wild animals, including birds of prey. I’ve always had a love of animals! My husband is active -duty Coast Guard and we moved back the the area in August of last year. I have availability throughout the week to accommodate a variety of needs. I look forward to creating personal care schedules to fit each families’ needs. For my home care, I offer multiple walks each day and my own well-behaved dog and cat for social needs. We are working on an enclosed backyard space for longer, free outdoor play time! Pickup and drop off service is possible. For client home care, I can be flexible, depending on the needs of the client.

“Victoria is so good with our dog Dash! She’s so patient with him and makes sure he’s comfortable and has all the things they need (including treats!) for a successful walk! I’ll definitely be hiring her again!”

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life, starting with the many pets I grew up with. Over the years, I’ve gained experience house sitting and pet sitting for families and friends, ensuring their pets were happy and well cared for. While I still currently house sit for those with pets, I also work on a farm, where I handle a wide range of animals daily, further strengthening my skills and dedication to animal care! I’m a college student with a part-time job, and I excel at multitasking. Spending time with animals is not only enjoyable for me but also a great way to unwind. I’m available for regular walks, house sitting, and multiple daily check-ins, as well as overnight stays. With my short work shifts and a flexible class schedule, I can easily accommodate your pet care needs. Pets' safety is always my top priority when pet sitting. Ensuring a pet’s safety in their own home requires attentiveness and preparation. I carefully follow owner’s instructions, supervise the pet closely, and make sure the environment is free of hazards. I keep emergency contacts on hand, monitor the pet for signs of stress, and am prepared to act quickly if needed. I've also worked with many anxious pets in the past so I understand that they may need a little more care and closeness. With a focus on security and comfort, I provide consistent care while keeping owners updated for peace of mind.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals cats, dogs, fish, and even plants! I love to help my friends, family, and more with walking their dog, feeding their cat, or watering plants! I work only a few days a week because I’m a stay at home mother so I would give your pup all my love. I’m available during the week from 11am - 8pm. I take my dogs on walks as well as play fetch at least once a day! I feed them twice a day and let them out every 2-3 hours. If i dog/cat sit for someone I go to their house 2 times a day to feed, walk, or whatever else I’m instructed to do.

About: I have owned many dogs/cats/ducks/horses. I have been relied on by many family members and friends to check in their furry friends. I can do anything that needs to be done including washing, walking, feeding, or just playing. Please reach out to me! I am currently working as an Amazon driver with a flexible schedule. I am also willing to check in on your fur baby around my weekly schedule. I will keep up with trash, cleaning litter boxes, and changing puppy pads like the house is my own. And of course always keep the water jug full.

About: I’ve always loved animals, I have a 3 year old Australian Shepherd and he is my whole world. I will treat your fur baby with the love, care, and attention that I show my own fur baby. When I’m watching your pet, they will be safe, happy, and have the best time! I currently work full time, but I am available late evenings on week days and all day on most weekends. I am always happy to be flexible with my schedule. I live in an apartment so my dog gets plenty of walks, outdoor time, mental, and physical stimulation throughout the day. I provide a calming, safe environment in my home for my pup, and I bring that same calm and caring energy to every animal I meet.

About: I am an animal lover who has been in the animal care field for about 7 years. I am trained with medicating animals, whether it be oral, topical, or subcutaneously. I have experience with aggressive pets, diabetic/epileptic pets, as well as puppies and senior pets. I can do baths, as well as everything that comes with bath prepping (nails, ear cleaning, a good brushing, etc.) I can also send as many picture and text updates as needed while sitting. Im currently in school for Animal Health and Behavior, in hopes to become a rehabilitator and own my own sanctuary. I spend most of my free time with my dog, a standard schnauzer/poodle mix, whether it be taking him on walks or taking him to the beach. I am really excited to start pet sitting, as I enjoy meeting new people and their pets! I look forward to taking care of your fur-babies! I don’t care for pets in my own home, as my younger dog is selective with other animals. I am more than happy to do whatever is necessary to keep your fur baby comfortable in their home! I’m completely comfortable with doing your own schedule and routine at your home. I keep a clean and tidy home, and will do the same at yours. I understand messes happen, especially with furry friends, but I’m more than happy to clean up any dishes, laundry, basic cleanup etc. I’m currently focusing on petsitting, so unless my calendar says otherwise, I should be available when I’m needed. At this time I’m not doing overnight sitting, but will possibly offer that again in the future. I do not bring client’s pets to my own home, as I have reactive dogs. I will be more than happy to follow your routine and safety practices in your own home/out on walks!

About: I am a 25 year old student studying marine ecology. I consider myself more of a puppy-person than a people-person. I have two dogs of my own, both of which are sort of seniors. I am a very patient person when it comes to animals, and I have been caring for a variety of animals since I was young (they used to call my house The Zoo House) I am a full time student but with plenty of time in the evening to care for pets, and taking breaks from the books to walk or run with your dog, bring it to the park, or play with your dog so that your dog goes home tired and happy would be a perfect way to stretch my legs between study sessions. Although I do not have a yard, I am able to make frequent and lengthy walks.
