Cate was wonderful. We had just moved here, which can be hard/stressful for a furry family member. Cate made sure our dog was well cared for. She sent lots of pictures and updates. We will 100% use her in the future. Highly recommend !

Katie you were so amazing with my sweet Maisie!! It gave me so much relief to know she was well cared for before she had to be alone for the rest of the night while I was at work. Thank you for being so caring and loving on my girl!!

Emily is professional and thorough and was so good with my kitty Roux☺️. She made it so much easier to go away because I knew my fur baby was in good hands. Her timely check-ins and photos put me completely at ease!

Zoe took great care of our dog! She really spent time with her and made sure she was not only fed and given potty breaks but also cuddled and cared for! She even brought in our packages and pulled up our trash can while we were gone.

About: i will care for your pup as if they were my own. i have a pup of my own who will adore yours as well! i work from home everyday so i can accommodate your pups needs easily and i work with any schedule or regiment the pup may need. i live in an apartment which does not offer a fenced in backyard, so your pup will go on lots of walks and explore many parts of the city.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats all my life. Since I was 16, family and friends have trusted me to care for their fur-babies while they are away, and I have loved every second of it! I am very much an animal person, and I pride myself in being dependable and loving to every single pet I meet. I work as an elementary school teacher, which gives me plenty of afternoon time to care for your babies! I am available after 3pm all weekdays during the school year, and during the summer I'm even more flexible. During the summer, I am available after 8am throughout the day to do drop-ins. On the weekends, I am available in the morning and afternoon. In your home, I am able to care for your babies in any way they need. I will follow the directions you set, and I am flexible to your pet's specific needs.

About: hey y’all! I’m a Roanoke native that loves animals and the outdoors. I grew up with dogs, cats, and chickens, and I’ve fostered three cats. I’ll treat your pets and your home with great care; animal care is something I take seriously and I believe it’s important for pet owners to have peace of mind when they are away. Look no further for a responsible and reliable adult to care for your animals. “If all the beasts were gone, men would die from a great loneliness of spirit.” At the moment I’m only available on weekends for dogsitting. My weekday schedule is somewhat flexible for drop-in visits or dogwalking. Feel free to inquire. I’m not able to have pets in my own home, but I can provide continuity of care while you are away. The services I offer include dog walking, drop-in visits, and occasionally, pet sitting (including regular walks and feeding). I am happy to accommodate pets with special needs whenever possible.

Keely was amazing! She took such great care of our 14 year diabetic cat, checking glucose levels and giving insulin. She also fed our two outdoor kitties. She sent daily photos and updates multiple times per day and followed all directions. She went well beyond what a typical pet sitter would do. We were able to enjoy our trip and relax knowing our pets were in great hands! She truly gave us a sense of security. I hope to use Keely again in the near future and highly recommend her if you need care for your furry family members!
