“Kallie was great! I got detailed updates about my Tiny & she even went above & beyond and brought in my packages even though I didn’t mention this on our meet & greet. Tiny is pretty shy & hesitant around other people so it’s always a great sign when I receive photos of him feeling comfortable around a sitter. 10/10”

“Kimberly and Christopher were fabulous with our elder kitties. They have watched them several times for us, and we feel so comfortable, leaving them in their care. They kept us up-to-date on what was going on with the cats, and took awesome care. I would highly recommend them.”

“This is a repeat booking, it was very last minute and she was quick to respond and got me in. I had just brought one into the vet and was worried about her, it felt great leaving her in Jennifer's hands. Very happy!”

About: I have been taking care of pets for a very long time. Bathing, brushing, soothing, walking, etc. I don't have much professional training experience for other people's pets, but if you tell me what I need to do when I have your pet in my care, then I will make sure it gets done. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I work full time so I am usually only available to board or day care on the weekends or when I take a break from work. I will update my schedule before hand though and we'll often be available on holidays. I can do dropins a few days a week. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly dog. She loves other animals. If your pets are aggressive to other animals, then let me know. I will try to accommodate as much as possible by keeping them in a separate room.
“We were visiting Fredericksburg and needed someone to come our rental house one day and let our dogs out while we day-tripped out of town. Leslie was quick to respond to messages leading up to the pet sitting and did a great job with our two fur babies! She sent us great photos and was very informative with what happened during her stay. I would absolutely recommend Leslie for any Fredericksburg visitors who need a pet sitter for day visits.”

“Lauren did a great job watching our cat, Minnie for the few days we were gone. She sent photos and videos during each visit and did everything we asked her to do for Minnie. We will definitely request Lauren again for future trips!”

“Katie is amazing! Our very shy cat found a new friend! And that’s something!! Katie took great care of our cat and kept us up-to-date on what was happening. She’s friendly and we are definitely using her in our future travels!”

“Hayley did a great job with the drop-in visits for our two pups. She sends great pics of them enjoying some outside time and scratches. She's was flexible with their schedule and great with our specific instructions. Would recommend and will use Hayley again.”

About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover who treats every pet like part of the family. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your dog or cat in someone else’s care, and my goal is to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. I provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or just having someone nearby, I make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine closely and send regular updates with photos so you can see how they’re doing while you’re away. My focus is making sure your pet feels happy, secure, and loved the entire time they’re with me. I’d love the chance to meet you and your furry family member! I work full time at a school very close to my home. I'm off by 3:30 every day and depending on how close client is to my work, I can go during my lunch to care for pets. I have a fully fenced yard with a swimming pool which is great for the summer. I have a 4 year old labradoodle who loves to play and is very friendly.
About: Hello everyone! My name is Morgan! I am a stay at home mom of 5 active children. We’re an active family but I homeschool so my children are home with me all day. I’ve taken care of many dogs, cats and various other animals from the time I was very young! My family has always had many pets around our home and my children absolutely love all pets as their own. Pet care would fit right into our daily routine. I have many hands that can help with pet care and ensure that your pet is very spoiled and well loved while in my home. I can crate your pet as needed or not. Take your pet on walks and make sure they are given plenty of attention and love during their stay in our home. Or care for you pet as you are away and ensure they get what they need while you are gone.
“Best sitter! She took care of my 3 cats for 5 days. Followed all food, water, litterbox, and play instructions. Lots of pics and videos sent. She even cleaned up the glass my cat broke! And she fed my aquarium with shrimp for me. Definitely will hire again if I need another sitter before I move :) Thanks, Casey!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals practically my whole life, from dog sitting for neighbors and family, to nurturing and raising abandoned ducklings. I’ve always had a natural affinity for animals of all sorts. I’m currently volunteering at an animal shelter near me and I’ve had over a years experience of caring for, bathing, cleaning up after, and socializing dogs and cats of all kinds. I feel very confident and comfortable around all sorts of animals with differing temperaments. I’m currently enrolled in online college so I have plenty of time for your fur babies. I will be available to walk, feed, love on, and play with your little love. I will make sure to greet your furry friend with their favorite treat(all complimentary of course) and keep them occupied while you’re away. I know how stressful and disheartening it can feel to be away from your pet, so I’ll be sure to keep them engaged in activities and I’ll make sure to send pictures and videos of them to keep your mind at ease.
About: I’ve looked after a wide variety of pets/animals and friends, family and coworkers have trusted me to look after the pets for many years! :) I have a very flexible schedule right now so I’ll be able to check in and care for your animals as often as you’d like! I only do in your home visits, I can stay the night too. I prefer a list of instructions to follow and take care of!
About: I worked as a kennel tech for a dog trainer for 2 years and have been volunteering with a dog rescue that saves abused and neglected dogs for the past 6 years. These experiences, as well as raising my own dogs, have given me the knowledge to work with most dogs, but my passion is working with fearful, anxious, and reactive dogs. Working on their time to gain their trust is my specialty and passion. I have experience working through basic obedience, counter conditioning, confidence building, muzzle training, gear shyness, and cooperative care. I also have experience working with dogs that require more intensive care due to feeding routines (such as making homemade food or strict feeding schedules with medications) and grooming maintenance (frequent or routine baths due to coat type or skin conditions). Know that under my care, your pup will be with someone who understands them as an individual and can meet them where they are at. I'm currently attending college online, so I'm almost always available during the week, except when I'm taking care of my own dogs. On weekends, I do market events, so I might not have as much availability throughout the day. Your dog's comfort as well as yours are my top priorities, so I do require a meet and greet before any service I provide. This allows me to meet your pet and see their behavior before a service, and lets you see how your pet feels around me. I provide daily updates with pictures, with the ability to provide more frequent updates at your request. I also strictly follow any instructions and routines laid out for me regarding a pet's care.
