“Rachel was fantastic in taking care of my fur baby Nappa. He can be overly excited and pull when he walks but Rachel loved him like her own. Thank you so much for loving my boy and keeping my mind at ease while my family and I were away.”

About: I am the owner of a small dog training business. I specialize in training pet, service, and working dogs. Also, I breed, raise, and train protection dogs! I live, work, and train on a six acre property. I‘m also available 24/7 for our clients and take care of your dog as mine! I have a temperature controlled training and boarding building so each dog has their own personal space. I also have treadmills, a pond, and six open acres for dogs to run and play.

“It was a pleasure working with Shannon during her first visit to our home to walk our dog. Her communication was excellent, she responded to my booking request and to my texts quickly and set my mind at ease that she would take good care of our dog and she did. I also really appreciated her summary of the visit and photos. I look forward to her next visit.”

“I cannot recommend Sierra highly enough! My dog, Mickey, ran down the hall to meet her on her second visit. He’s never done that. She obviously had Mickey’s seal of approval immediately. Sierra is conscientious, very communicative, and extremely kind. She has my complete trust and respect, because she treats Mickey as if he were her own. To me that is the absolute best quality in a dog walker! Choosing Sierra as your dog walker is the absolute correct decision! Having Sierra walk your dog will keep you worry free and happy while your pup gets good exercise, has fun and is treated like family 😃”

About: Hi there! I’m new to the Richmond area and can’t wait to explore the city, preferably with a furry friend (or two) by my side. I’ve been the go to pet sitter for family, friends, coworkers, and neighbors since 2007. Whether it’s playful pups, snuggly seniors, or quirky cats, I’ve cared for them all and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. • Super flexible schedule • Happy to stay in your home (I’m neat, respectful, and come with glowing references) • Excellent communicator and completely trustworthy with both pets and homes • Big believer in belly rubs, treat breaks, and whatever makes your pet happiest I can’t host pets in my own home but, I’m more than happy to travel or housesit wherever your fur baby feels most at home. I’d love to meet Richmond’s locals and give them all the love and care they deserve. My days are wide open and pet sitting is my favorite way to fill them! I am totally flexible and always happy to see a fur best friend! While I can’t offer boarding in my home (my cat kindly lets me live there), I’m happy to care for your pets in your home. I treat every house with respect and every pet with the same love, compassion, and excitement as if they were my own.

“Mel was awesome! We were in a scheduling pinch and needed someone to come walk our dog while we were gone. Everything went great! Would definitely book again!”

About: I’ve had pets nearly my whole life and have been known to struggle to walk past an animal in need. This means rescuing an injured squirrel, a Cooper’s hawk, an opossum, and more, going the extra mile even when it was deeply inconvenient for me to do so. I also grew up attending zoo camp and then volunteering at a zoo from age 5 to 14, caring for a wide range of animals. I have worked with high energy pitties, a blind and anxious German shepherd, birds, cuddly kitties, fearful kitties, diabetic kitties, rabbits, and others. I have administered shots, IVs, medications, eye drops, and more. I am persistent and typically can win over even the shyest and most anxious fur baby. I have a genuine love for caring for pets and would be honored to care for yours! I am currently carefully thinking about my next full time role and working part time. My partner is an immigrant seeking employment during a time when that is extremely difficult due to the political situation. Any supplemental income is incredibly helpful for me as we navigate. I have a reliable vehicle, plenty of time to play with your pets, and love to love on them. I have a reliable car and I keep my word. I am communicative, honest, and truly love animals. I take direction well and understand that every pet has their specific needs. I don’t cut corners and do my best to provide top notch care, always.

About: I grew up with dogs and still watch my parents’ dog when they go out of town. I love meeting new animals, playing with them, and caring for them. I am currently doing Lyft full time so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule and can adjust my driving hours to whatever works best. I love playing with animals, petting them, and giving them cuddles. I have a pet of my own so I understand how hard it is to leave them and am happy to provide photos during my visits.

“Great communication during the visit!”

About: I’ve been a cat mama since our family cat chose me as his favorite nap spot the day I came home from the hospital! I raised my next bestie from the day she was born until she crossed the rainbow bridge, and I’ve loved my Fiona for nearly 14 years. I have plenty of experience with cats of all ages, including administering medication, accommodating quirky needs, and navigating sassy attitudes! I also grew up with a family dog and helped care for him while living at home and during college breaks. That included feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I bring patience and attention to each pet’s personality and routine, and I’m happy to learn all the little details that help yours feel comfortable and loved. I currently work freelance and have a very flexible schedule so my days are built around what bookings I have in a given week. Let me know what your needs are and we can work something out 🙂 Each visit comes will include a food, water and liter refresh plus treats, playtime and plenty of cuddles. I have plenty of experience with cats of all temperaments and will adjust care according to your instruction.

About: I have always had a love for animals since a small child. My exposure and interest for neighborhood animals and pets brought on opportunities for pet sitting in my community growing up. This love grew into a passion/career as I have been working as a Veterinary Assistant for 10 years and received my bachelors in Agriculture at Virginia State University in 2020. My schedule is currently flexible until October 19, 2026 allowing me plenty of time to tend to your pet(s) in need! After September, I will be available Monday-Thursday 6pm to 9pm and Friday- Sunday 9am to 10p. I have my own fur baby by the name of Sebastian. He is a 6 year old Yorkshire Terrier who loves to socialize with people and pets. We currently live in a suburban neighborhood that will make you feel safe to leave your fur babies in my hands.

I’m skilled in managing multi-pet interactions and making the pets feel safe and comfortable while hanging out with me. I’m totally fine with cleaning up any pet accidents and making sure things are in tip top shape when you arrive home.

About: Hi! My name is Sophia and I love to walk around and explore this city with my dog! We go on long walks and admire all of the beautiful neighborhoods and districts around us. My favorite part of the day is when I come home to my pup! And whenever I meet or get to hang out with other dogs my day is made. I just love to be around animals and learning how to communicate and connect with each unique personality! I was the neighborhood dog sitter growing up and my favorite time of year was when my neighbors would go out of town and I could watch their pups! I learned how to care for and handle all different kinds of dogs and I was always so happy to be around them. The best day of my life (so far) was the day I got a pup of my own! I believe that dogs can change people’s lives and bring so much happiness into the world. I am fully available to care for animals with my current schedule. I work from home but my job is winding down and will be doing pet care until my next full time opportunity. I have so much love for animals and their safety and health is my priority. I have two dogs that are my world and I always make sure they have everything they need. I will put the same care and effort into caring for other people's animals and will always treat them as my own. I make sure to spend as much time as possible with my pups and keep them as healthy and happy as I can.

“Ricardo was great with mason! Took amazing pictures, walked him for more than 30 minutes. He definitely gave mason a good work out! I will definitely be working with Ricardo again!”
