“Dakota connects well with our dog Patrick and is able to re-direct him when he wants to just turn around and come home. Our pup can be just one small ball of over excitement and exuberance and they handle that well. Dakota has been very reliable and always lets me know if he needs to adjust the time a bit.”

About: I have experience caring for all age ranges of cats and dogs. I have 3 years of animal welfare experience previously working in a shelter and i have always naturally been a huge animals lover. I have the ability to read animals body language really well. I connect quickly with every animal I meet! I have experience with different kinds of energy levels as well. If your dog needs a hike and does well in the car; I’m your gal!!, If they just need cuddles while we binge a tv show I can do that too! I have experience with bunnies, chickens and birds too!! I have a 3 year old dog named Ace who came to me as a puppy. I raised him and have trained him to be off leash, sit, stay, paw, and heel. (Basic commands) if you need assistance or would like for me to work with your dog in any training/ socializing way please reach out! Currently available anytime! Would love to have the ability to work with your animals and still have the time to give my animals the loving they deserve as well! I walk my dog every chance I get while working on any minor behavioral or fear based problems to insure my baby can live a full healthy happy life.

“Anna takes great care of our senior puppy! I highly recommend her.”

About: I have loved dogs since I was a kid! I recently have been working as a nanny and that has involved light care for pets as well, my current duties are walking the two dogs and feeding them treats and filling water bowls. I am very loving and caring. My previous job involved feeding and letting the pup out in the back yard to play and to help keep track of certain habits due to the dog having food allergies. I am so fond of animals as a whole that my future goal is to buy a house with lots of land and do free lance dog boarding! I would love to help your family with your pet’s needs! Hope to work with you soon!

About: My passion has always been caring for and loving animals. I will treat yours as if they were my own and understand that you are allowing someone you don't yet know, to care for your loved ones. I have always been a dog owner and my fur-babies are my kids. I have three now, a German Shepherd, a German Shepherd mix, and Doberman, all will be turning two next year. I have been enjoying fostering puppies through CASPCA these past several months, as well I volunteered for them as a teenager. Over the years I have very successfully cared for friends and family's pets while they were away on business or vacation. I promise to be the absolute best caregiver I can be for your fur-babies!

“Catherine has been walking our puppy 3 times a week and we are so happy we found her! She is incredibly knowledgeable and professional. She provides detailed information about every walk. She also works on training which I consider above and beyond. I highly recommend working with her!!”

About: I've taken care of dogs for years on and off for friends and family. Love any type of dog and am very attentive. I love the outdoors and taking nice, long walks! I am currently working with the UNC women's soccer team and will have mornings and evenings free. I can come at lunch to take the dog(s) out and do early mornings or late evenings if needed. I am also open to doing an in-house sitting to keep the dog more comfortable I am happy to come walk, play, feed, or just keep your dog comfortable! I am also happy to stay in the house to keep the dog comfortable and in its routine.

“Terrific person all around. She put my doggo with anxiety at ease.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs in-home, in a pet hotel, and managing on leash fun. I also ample experience working with exotic pets, zoo animals, and wildlife! There isn’t a species I can’t lovingly and competently care for. Mediation Administration, diet management, and special needs care are my specialties. I provide written updates and pictures of your pet having fun after each visit! When I’m not working as a wildlife care professional, I set aside time to care for your pets! I am available on Tuesdays and Wednesday's, and some other mornings. I request a video meet and greet first to determine if we are a good match. Then, I will get detailed care instructions from the pet owner and will follow them to a T! Always making sure to allow some time for lots of animal cuddles.

“David was great with our energetic dog! He’s responsive and thorough.”

About: • Most dogs like me (and i like most dogs :)) • All energy levels welcomed • I have raised 4 dogs of my own • Bachelors degree in Veterinary Bioscience • Worked in the veterinary field for the past 4 years • I’m responsible and good at time management • Even with a busy schedule, I will make sure your dog gets the attention he/she needs • No dog intimidates me ( all breeds and sizes are welcome) • I will always have your dogs best interest at heart I have 4 dogs of my own; 2 husky mixes, 1 pittie mix, and 1 beagle. My fiancé and I take care of them together, but much of the day to day things fall onto my plate. So, I have 4 very different dogs with 4 different needs, wants, and energy levels. On top of this, I also work in the veterinary field and have for the past couple years. Taking care of animals is something I literally do 24/7 and absolutely love it. With my personal pets, I make sure that all of them get love every day. Also, I try and get them some type of exercise. Living in Virginia, the weather is the biggest challenge. We go from negative temperature to triple digits within the year. In the times when the weather is being trying, I try and make sure my dogs get more mental exercise to combat the lesser physical exercise. With all that said, I would do the same with a clients pet. I would treat them as my own and give them the best quality care while they are with me.

About: I have experience with all dogs and grew up working on a farm, caring for an array of livestock to include chickens, goats/sheep, alpacas/llamas, and two sheepdogs. I am willing to feed & care for any other farm animals or exotic pets if requested. I came from a big cat loving family, and would love to come love on yours. I am a stay at home mom which affords me the ability to be pretty flexible with times of days and last minute bookings. If I’m a not available for some dates, please reach out to me to discuss. Boarding and Doggy Day Care requests are reviewed on a case by case basis. We live on 7 acres, no fence, with chickens and a German shepherd. Dogs must be leash trained and crate trained for bedtime (if boarding).

About: I am an animal lover, from cats and dogs, to rabbits and gerbils! I have two dogs of my own who I love to look after and spend time with. I am a responsible, caring, and considerate person who will always prioritize your comfort and convenience- and your pet’s comfort! I just graduated from high school and will be available to pet sit for the summer before I start college. I am looking for little jobs that I am highly interested in to earn money before college, which would help me a lot to pay for expenses. I am home mornings and evenings, with the occasional babysitting in the afternoon during the week. I normally stay home on weekends. Overall, I will always be able to give your pet(s) a ton of attention, love, and affection! My house is on 2.5 acres, but also has a smaller gated area just for the dogs so the little ones don’t escape through the larger fence. Although, if you have a big dog, the larger backyard area is entirely fenced in- the large yard is perfect to play in! The house also has a separate pet area inside, but, for the most part, the dogs will be in the house with me. My family and I keep a clean home and do not smoke, so your pet(s) will remain safe and healthy in my environment!

“Keri was excellent with our pup Finn and accommodated a last minute request with ease! We would not hesitate to have Keri watch our animals again!”
