About: Trustworthy and Caring Dog Sitter with Over a Decade of Personal Dog Ownership Experience. Thank you for considering me as your dog sitter. I look forward to providing a safe and trustworthy environment for your dog, filled with love, care, and endless belly rubs. I currently work outside the home full-time M-F with a lunch break at 1200 where I come home and walk my 12 year old dog. I have a fenced yard, a 12 year old Yorkie, and plenty of places for your pup to explore on walks. Your pup will be cared for as a member of the family.

About: As a passionate animal advocate, I've had the privilege of serving as the Foster Care Coordinator at the Gloucester-Mathews Humane Society for 1 year, while also volunteering with shelters throughout my adult life. Additionally, I'm a Certified Veterinarian Assistant, and my life's journey has been enriched by sharing it with diverse animals, from beloved domestic pets like dogs and cats, to hospice and senior animals. I'm committed to providing your cherished pets with the same love, care, and compassion that I've devoted to my own. I am thrilled to be available Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm. If you have a special request for different hours, I invite you to share your needs and I will eagerly discuss and arrange a solution that works for you. I will nurture your fur babies with the same love and devotion I would shower upon my own precious little ones. With my extensive shelter experience, I have been blessed to work with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, temperaments and life stages. I have had the joy of caring for rambunctious puppies and the privilege of providing comfort to senior dogs and cats.

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've loved animals since I was a kid and have cared for many throughout my life! I was tasked with raising my family dog since she was a puppy when I was in high school, and I helped my college roommate with her puppy! I have walked/boarded many dogs and cats since moving to Virginia! Being in the military, my coworkers travel a lot so I have become the workplace's go-to "pet auntie." I genuinely love to spoil pets and providing them with a safe and homey environment while their loved ones are out! I have a fairly flexible work schedule so I can come back to my home or to your home to take care of your pet! Early morning, lunch, and evenings are especially free, so I can work around that depending on your needs. I do not own pets, so they will be here as a single child in the case they are boarded! Crates, food, litter boxes, etc will need to be provided as I don't own those things. I have access to many parks around my neighborhood, so walkability is not an issue!

About: i've taken care of dogs since I was 11 and I've had a cat for almost ten years now. I love spending time with all breeds! I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with, take care of, and love on your fur babies. I'll take care of your animals whichever way you see fit. I have a fenced in back yard and will crate them if you see fit.

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.

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 have been dog sitting and dog walking since I was the age of 12 and I have owned dogs and been around dogs since birth. I absolutely love going on dog walks and playing with dogs in my backyard. I believe that dogs are family and should be treated exactly like you would your little baby or child. I used to charge $5 to walk over to my neighbors house and either stay there with him overnight or just give him 3 long walks during the day while they were at work. I also have owned dogs ranging from Yorkies and dachshund size to german Shepard’s and mastiffs. I have had close contact with shelter dogs and puppies that we now own. I absolutely love dogs and pride myself on the excellent care I give them I currently am in the military but work days and my wife works nights so someone is almost always at home to give them walks meals and plenty of love I have a fenced in yard as well as hiking trails just a mile up from my house I love going to with my two pups.

“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.”


Elizabeth B.
“Elizabeth is an amazing caregiver and very reliable sitter. She has taken care of my cats while I was away on a trip and one of my cats was very pregnant. Elizabeth kept me updated the entire time I was away and kept my cats very happy. I’m planning on getting a dog soon and will definitely use her services again. Elizabeth’s dog Dunkin, is extremely well trained and is a very lovable pup. Which goes to show how amazing she is with doggos as well.”


Yuna L.
“Yuna took care of my cat kitty and was excellent. Kitty is an old man at 16 years old and has a bunch of complications that she was able to navigate through while I was on tdy. Kitty was happy and healthy and I would trust yuna with any animal I would need watched.”


Trenton L.
“Trent is my son. He is a great dog dad to his dog Buster. He has also been a great “Bubba” (as all of our pets have called him lol) to our dogs Mylo (black lab-passed away in 2019), Sissy (mixed breed who came from the shelter-passed away in 2022) & Scruff (toy poodle who was a stray in our neighborhood-passed away in 2023) & our cat Lily (also a stray). Trent shows compassion for all animals but he always seemed to have a special place in his heart for Scruff, who was blind when we took him in. Trent was very patient with him, especially in Scruff’s later years when he needed to be carried a lot. My grandparents were animal lovers who worked for the SPCA in their day and their legacy of loving animals has definitely traveled down the family tree to their great grandson Trent. Trent has also recently walked 3 dogs for my friend while she was recuperating from an injury and I’m sure she would highly recommend him for this job. Trent is reliable and you won’t go wrong if you hire him.”

“Shelley is one of the wonderful people I've had the pleasure of meeting. Pets might as well be her children. She has dog sat for many times for two dogs. I'd highly recommend your pet vacation with Shelley and her family while your on vacation. I promise, they'll be spoiled with attention. Sincerely, Rob G”

Desiree C.
“Ever since Desiree was a little girl I've known her to be nothing but a loving and caring towards all animals. She especially loves dogs, big dogs, little dogs, ugly dogs, and cute dogs. What time a dog even bit her when she was trying to give the thing a kiss. It never stopped her from loving hat dog. I have never went seen Desiree do anything mean or uncaring towards a dog cat oarfish. Of course she's them going to walk fish. I highly recommend Desiree to care for your Pets As She's cared for her own over these many years.”

Connor D.
“Alexis is always on time when she watched my dogs while I was on vacation and even spoiled them a little bit with treats and a bone. I have a small dog (schnauzer) and a medium to big dog (lab mix) and she was perfect with caring for both! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker or boarding your dog”
