Gerri is fantastic with our little pug! We have no worries at all and feel completely confident and secure with leaving Bourbon with Gerri in our home. She's extremely kind and personable, communicates and sends photos often. Highly recommended!

Sarah did an amazing job taking care of my 13 month puppy. Wesley is high energy and loves attention! He really loved Sarah and I felt confident leaving him! Sarah communicated during her stay and even sent pictures. Wesley is a fussy eater and she got him to eat a meal. Sarah left my home neat and I would highly recommend her services. Don’t hesitate to book!

Trisha graciously watched my 2 older dogs at the last minute in my home. She was an amazing houseguest, and was incredible with my visually impaired dog who requires various daily medications. My other grumpy dog took to Trisha immediately, which is remarkable as he can be stingy with his affection. Thank you Trisha and we all look forward to seeing you again soon.❤️

About: Hi! I'm Cat, and it is my literal pleasure to care for your dog, cat, lizard, bunny, or parrot! What you can expect from me: -Fast, clear, and concise executive-level communication. -Deep breed-specific knowledge of behavior underpinned by my time as a vet receptionist -High quality photos -Easy, flexible scheduling -Complete focus and attention to detail -Genuine joy and enthusiasm to care for your pet In my previous life, I was a design program manager within corporate tech (Meta, Comcast, Pinterest), and I'm thrilled and privileged to pivot into pet care. I have cared for dogs of every size, flavor, and temperament. I have extensive experience training dogs, and quite frankly, I've watched a whole lot of Westminster dog show. In particular, I have specialized experience with shy or nervous dogs and will provide them the space and understanding needed to relax and feel comfortable. I am happy to walk or jog to help burn canine energy. Not afraid to get down in the dirt and play! I have been deeply involved in cat rescue since 2020, when I began working remotely. I have fostered dozens of cats over the years. This includes kittens with complex medical issues. I am very capable at medicating cats and kittens as well as identifying when a cat may be feeling unwell. When you board with me, your pet will not be left alone for more than 1 hour. I only board pets from one household at a time and provide dedicated personal care. When your baby is at my house, they are family. Feel free to reach out with any additional questions. I'm currently working remotely doing project-based contract work, so I have plenty of availability and scheduling flexibility. If boarding or house-sitting, I will be fully available and no pet will be left alone longer than an hour. I have a friendly chihuahua mix (8 lbs) and 2 cats, but if needed, I have plenty of room to give everyone their own space. I have an unfenced backyard with plenty of room to romp. Dogs will always be leashed or tethered in yard.

Amanda was great with our kitties while we were away on vacation! She sent lots of updates with photos/videos and was very respectful of our space. Amanda went above and beyond during meal times as our kitties need to be separated and can be picky eaters. I would highly recommend Amanda for any of your pet care needs!

Kathy knows her business and has a natural connection with dogs. Our little Chihuahua mix is very shy with strangers, but Kathy gave her a "massage" that immediately won her over. We were very comfortable knowing Kathy was taking care of our dog and two cats for the holidays. Highly recommended.

About: I have grown up around animals my entire life and have had Bernese Mountain Dogs since I was born, including having three Bernese at one time. Caring for large dogs has given me extensive experience with feeding schedules, walks, grooming needs, exercise, and providing attentive care. In addition to dogs, I have also raised two bunnies and two hamsters, giving me experience with small animals and understanding the importance of patience and gentle care. Currently, I care for one Bernese Mountain Dog, one bunny, and two French Bulldogs. My lifelong experience with both large and small pets helps set me apart as someone who is comfortable, reliable, and genuinely passionate about caring for animals. I’m currently home for the summer from college so most of my days are free. I am currently working part time, two days a week at night. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In both my home and a client’s home, I follow feeding schedules carefully, provide fresh water at all times, give pets plenty of exercise and attention, and make sure they have a clean environment. I am experienced caring for both large and small animals, so I understand that each pet has different needs and personalities

About: With a lifetime of experience living with dogs, I am confident around them. I own two medium large dogs that love their lifestyle. "Wow, he/she doesn't usually like men!" is something I've heard a lot from people when I meet their dog. It takes patience to learn a dog's communication style, but when they feel understood they do everything they can to express themselves. When they feel comfortable with my ability to successfully communicate they trust me. I've dog sat for friends, but this time in my life I can do more. I'm mostly finished with professional career life. I'm writing the great American novel instead now. I walk my dogs twice a day and go on hikes on weekends where they're allowed. Dogs are the secret to a peaceful mind. Respectful of space and privacy, I'm here for your dogs because I have dogs. I'd want someone who cares about dogs to care for mine when I'm not there.

I am a kind and compassionate person who treats every animal as if they were my own. When you bring your furry friend to my home, you can rest assured that they will receive the highest quality of care. My experience working with animals has given me a deep understanding of their behavior and needs. I know how to provide personalized care to each animal in my care, whether they need extra attention, a special diet, or medication. I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and get joy from seeing them happy and healthy. When you leave your pet with me, you can be sure that they will receive the love and attention they need while you're away. My years of experience, passion for animals, and comfortable home make will be the perfect choice for anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter. I'm a junior college student, most of my classes are online so my schedule is very flexible, I usually walk them around my complex or take them to the dogs park with the owners permission I have an unfenced yard, toys, and bowls. I can administer medicine, give them baths, clean their ears and trim their nails. I worked in an animal hospital and a farm so I have a lot of experience handling animals :)

About: I've been taking care of family, friends, and neighbors animals since I was little. I've been working and volunteering at a local animal rescue for almost two years, and am comfortable and familiar with dogs of any kind, age, temperament, and more! I'm not afraid to clean up or play with a dog with energy, I've seen it all and have experience with hundreds of dogs! I am student at Virginia Tech, so coming home over the summer leaves me totally free! I'm eager to have something to fill my time, especially if it's checking in on a puppy every few hours, or getting me active while I'm on break. I have so much experience with maintaining a dogs environment and health, and can predict dogs needs based on behavior from my time working with them! I have worked with service dogs, special needs dogs, elderly dogs, almost newborn puppies, and more. Each dog is different and I love learning their needs and patterns over time.

About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life and bring a calm, attentive, and personalized approach to every animal I watch. I understand that each pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to adjust my care to fit their needs—whether that means playful energy, quiet companionship, or a little extra patience. I’m experienced with both dogs and cats, including senior pets and those who may need medication, and I’m very mindful about keeping their environment clean, safe, and stress-free. I also have experience in multi-pet households, so I’m comfortable managing different temperaments while making sure every pet feels secure and cared for. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your pet feels comfortable, happy, and truly at home. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday routine, and I’m home most of the week to give pets plenty of time, attention, and care. I keep a consistent schedule with potty breaks, meals, playtime, and rest, making sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for throughout the day. I’m only away briefly once a week, and I always plan around that to make sure pets are still well taken care of. I truly enjoy being present with them, creating a calm, loving environment where they can feel relaxed, safe, and happy. I create a safe, clean, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and at ease. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine and personality, making sure to follow all care instructions and keep things as consistent as possible for them. In my home, pets are always supervised, and I take care with introductions and space to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I’m very mindful of safety, from secure spaces to feeding routines and behavior monitoring. My goal is to provide a calm, stress-free environment where pets feel safe, respected, and truly cared for.

Chris is awesome! He was so easy to communicate with and you can tell he really loves dogs. I do not trust my dog with anyone outside the family, but I do trust him with Chris for 2 most important reasons. He has health issues and needs medication, and he is a runner. Being a Hound, he can even get away from me! It is very difficult to keep him safe. I trust Chris with him totally. I can rest easy when he is with Chris, and I do not have to worry about him being in a crate all day. Thank You Chris for being there for us!

About: I’ve been animal lover for as long as I can remember. From reptiles to puppies to birds I treat every animal with love and respect. Due to never having an ideal living situation to be caring pets, I’ve never had a pet of my own. However, I’ve always been surrounded by my friends, families, coworkers and neighbors pets. I have watched cared for their pets at my home, their home and even just out and about many times over the years. This has given me experience with a countless amount of pets of all kind and I fall in love with each and every one! I’d love to spread that love a little further to all who will allow me to share :) I work a part-time job at the moment and I’m looking to fill my extra time with something I love. I’ll have more than enough time to devote my utmost attention to your loved one! I’m also athletic myself so even the high energy fur balls get the best of me! I am very big on boundaries and structure. I will make sure to follow any guidelines that you already have in place for your pet.

Sarah watched out two miniature schnauzers over a four day period and it gave us peace of mind to know Sarah was at the house. She took very good cares of our boys and even got a kiss from our shy rescue dog. We will definitely be using her again.

We had an excellent experience with Jessica! She took care of our two cats for a week, including one who has a chronic condition and requires meds twice a day. From the start, she was incredibly attentive, responsible, and compassionate. She followed all care instructions carefully, kept us updated regularly, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was clear our cats were in great hands. We came home to happy kitties and everything just as we left it. I’m so grateful for the peace of mind Jessica gave us and would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend!
