Cat Sitting in Rustburg

“Reese did a wonderful job looking after my cat. I felt bad leaving him for a week but when I returned I could tell he was well taken care of.”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dog for nine years. I’ve also walked dogs at the Lynchburg Humane Society for years, and petsitted for and walked many others over the years. I’m available all summer thru mid August for pet walking/sitting. I’m very flexible due to my part-time work and am always open to last-minute requests! I have years of experience pet sitting within owners’ homes and am willing to accommodate whatever needs they have for their own home and their pets. I adore animals and have enough experience caring for them to be confident I can provide a positive experience for everyone involved.

“Mitchell was a fantastic sitter - thorough in his communication and my nervous cat loved him! I would recommend Mitchell without reservation.”

“Mia was a God-send. She worked an overnight on a holiday weekend, which is not easy to find. She came for a free meet and greet, and followed instructions dependably. She is a super warm pet and people person. She is conscientious, responsive, courteous and respective of the premises. My cats were calm and happy upon my return. She sent pictures and was extremely responsive to texts. Stellar sitter. She will be a regular for us. With gratitude-) She was the ideal sitter and we will be calling her again.”

About: Hi! I’m a veterinary assistant and current vet tech student offering dog walking and daycare 🐶 I have experience with pets of all sizes and temperaments. At home, I care for 2 dogs, and 4 cats. I’ll treat your pet like my own and always provide updates and photos so you feel at ease while you’re away 💛 I currently work 4 days a week and free on weekends! With spring here, I have time to spend with your pets outdoors! Busy work schedule? No problem💐🌷 Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I’m trained to recognize signs of stress, illness, or injury and respond quickly if anything seems unlike them.

About: I’ve always grew up around dogs of all sizes (especially the large ones) and always have a heart for our furry friends. I take care of the dogs in our neighbor and when someone needs just to check up on the pup I’m usually the one to do it! There has never been a time where I haven’t lived with a dog so I’ve had many years of experience with dogs! I’m currently a college student and would love to spend my free time looking and caring after dogs for the ones who need an extra hand! I offer the drop in care and walks because I prefer getting to know the dogs in their own environment first before bringing them into a new one!

“Anna was great! So thankful that she was available over the Holidays. She was on time for every visit and sent us pictures everytime. She even came over beforehand so she could meet Chip! Would recommend her to anyone!!”

“Ariane was great with Turtle. He was well taken care of while I was out of town. I will recommend her to friends and request her services in the future.”

About: What sets me apart is that I actually stick to your pet’s routine and pay attention to the little things. I also don’t mind helping taking care of exotic pets because I am trying to be an Exotics/Wildlife Veterinarian and have always had a passion for exotics, so I’ll be more than happy to help! I’ve helped with puppy training like potty reinforcing basic commands, but I am always willing to learn any crate training or potty training. I’m also comfortable with senior pups and making sure they get extra patience, slower walks, or medications if needed but I will need to learn how to administer your pup’s medication. I always send updates and photos so you know your pups are happy and taken care of. Pet care fits really well into my routine since I’m mostly available in the afternoons. I usually plan my classes and responsibilities earlier in the day, so afternoons are open for walks, drop-ins, feedings, and playtime. It works out great because I can give pets my full attention without feeling rushed, and I’m able to stay consistent with their schedule. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow feeding and walk schedules, give them plenty of attention, and respect their personality and space. I’m also very respectful of the home and always send updates and photos so owners feel confident while they’re away.

“Sophia is so sweet and caring for your animal! I feel at ease knowing she is caring for my dog when away at work!”

About: With a lifetime of experience around animals - growing up on a farm and working in a vet's office - I bring both a wealth of knowledge and gentle touch to every pet I meet. I'm especially experienced with senior pet care, have a knack for puppy training, and even have a special place in my heart for unique breeds - have always had a Sphynx cat at home. Above all, I'm reliable, warm, and absolutely dedicated to making sure your furry (or furless!) friends feel safe and loved in their own home. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine because I structure my schedule around providing dedicated, reliable time for each pet I look after. While I'm currently focusing on building my pet care services, I plan my availability thoughtfully to make sure every client gets the attention they need. In every client's home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and familiar environment for their pets. I take the time to understand each pet's routine and preferences, ensuring they feel secure and at ease while in my care. My approach is always about building trust - both with the pets and their owners - so that everyone feels confident and comfortable throughout the entire pet care experience.

“Madison is superb. She’s incredibly responsive and responsible. We were nervous about leaving our pups behind and concerned we might have trouble finding someone brave AND loving enough to care for the bully breed. Madison didn’t flinch and our dogs took to her immediately. She is professional, kind, punctual, caring, and will even send photos, which is incredibly thoughtful and reassuring. We won’t hesitate to rely on Madison in the future and highly recommend her services to others.”

About: Since 2016 I’ve had experience with two dogs of my own. I learned how to potty train, give baths, feed, and walk them. I love to have fun with dogs and play a lot! Dogs are my best friend! I am a college student at Liberty University who LOVES dogs and cats too! I am currently available in the mornings on Mon and Fri. Saturdays and Sundays I have lots of free time. And occasionally Tue and Thur I have some free time after 4pm. Here at Liberty there’s many areas to go on walks and play on big fields. Sometimes I can hang out with them in my room if my roommates aren’t here but they all have dogs and love them too!

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience and genuine love for animals. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from playful Golden Retrievers to cuddly Pit Bulls (both of which I’ve owned). I started my own pet care “business” at age 12 and have been dog-walking and pet-sitting ever since. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and pets with special needs, including diabetes. I value trust and attentiveness and always follow through on my commitments, whether that means late-night potty breaks, multiple walks a day, car rides, or meal preparation. I believe pets are family, and my priority is making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you are away. I can’t wait to meet your family! I’m a full-time resident student at Liberty University, but I still have plenty of flexibility in my schedule, along with my own car to travel off campus as needed. I’m able to dedicate at least 20 hours each week to caring for your pets, with the most availability on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I love being outdoors and enjoy staying active, so your furry friend will get plenty of exercise and attention, whether that means going for a walk or spending time playing outside. Since I live on Liberty’s campus, I’m not permitted to keep my own pets or house dogs or cats in the dorms. However, if you’re comfortable with it, your pet will get plenty of attention and affection from the 30+ students in my community whenever we visit campus. I also have my own car, so with your permission, I can take your dog to local parks or trails for exercise and enrichment. I value trust and clear communication above all, and I’m committed to keeping you updated as much as you’d like.

“Madelyn was professional and communicative, and were sure she got along great with our kitty! She also went out of her way to retrieve an important package that was delivered while we were away.”

“Charles was above and beyond what we expected. We have an English Bulldog, and he whined when he left. It was obvious he really does love animals and treats them with respect. He sent us updates throughout our absence, and kept in close contact. 5-star rating from us and highly recommended.”

About: I've cared for animals all my life including dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, and much more. Please consider choosing me to help you and your pets. I run a seasonal business and that allows me the extra time to do stuff that brings joy and everyone knows animals bring so much happiness! I have 2 female dogs that love to play ball in our fenced in yard. You can trust that I will treat your pets as my own.

“Maddie is fantastic! She followed all instructions to a T, was attentive to small details, and was perfectly communicative! We hope to get to hire her again!”

About: I have grown up with animals and have been around both indoor & outdoor animals all my life. I am experienced and comfortable with feeding, bathing, letting out, administering medications & just about anything else upon request! I am committed to making you feel comfortable leaving your pet(s) and home in my care! I have class about 2 hours every week. My husband will be home at all times, and I will be home the rest of the day. Your pet will be taken care of with whatever instructions you provide. I have class for about 2 hours a few days a week, however my husband is also always home. For the rest of the week, I am home and available. I have a husky named Dusty, who loves to have friends to play with. Pets are allowed to run around my home, on furniture, etc. Your requests will be followed exactly, and nothing will be provided without your permission (treats, food, etc). Any animal in my care will be fully loved and taken care of as my own.
