About: I am a fur mommy to an amazing little guy we call Charlie Brown! He is wonderful with adults and children alike! We would love to find him some new friends by watching your cute fur babies too! In my house, someone is always home, so your pet would never be alone! We love to go on long walks through the neighborhood and the local park. Our Charlie Brown loves car rides! My husband is great with animals and loves to play with them! We also have a 3 year old girl who is learning to play with our dogs as well and a full of life 6 year old boy who loves animals, so playtime is all the time here! There is never a dull moment, that's for sure! If you aren't comfortable with your pet coming to our house, that's ok too! I can come to you! I'm a trustworthy, respectful, playful dogsitter as well. Transportation is not an issue. I can stay over night or I can just check in from time to time with your little one. It's all up to you! Let me know what you need and we can figure it all out. I am looking forward to hearing from you and to getting to know all of those adorable fur babies!!!! "Ready to spoil, walk, pet and play! With our family, it's always a fun day!!!" I work for myself so my schedule is never an issue! Whatever may be needed, I will make happen. However, written instructions are always helpful! I don't have a fenced yard. However I do have a runner line that your pets can be hooked to outside so they can play as much as they want to without worry!!

“Heather always does a great job with our pup! Due to my ongoing changing schedule, I often reach out to her the night before I am in need of her service. She remains flexible with times and is great with communication!”

About: My love for animals all started when I was eight and took care of a family friend's cats. Since then, I have gained experience with animals of all types and sizes. In addition to our family dog, I adopted a rabbit of my own who was my pride and joy for six years before succumbing to a hereditary health issue. I also have taken horse lessons, and I currently volunteer with a nearby animal shelter as a dog walker and socializer. I am comfortable with pets of all sizes and breeds, and I look forward to offering your pet the best care it can get. I am currently working remotely, so pet care will be sprinkled throughout my daily routine. Because my schedule is spaced out and very flexible, I will be able to visit your pet as many times as needed throughout the day (or even stay at the house while working if asked) to ensure that they are getting the quality care and attention they need. I work with my clients to give both them and their pets the best possible experience. Prior to hire, I am happy (and in fact, prefer) to have a free 15-30 minute consultation to familiarize myself to the pet and discuss any care specifics that the client may have. Because my care is individualized and will conform to the owner's wishes, I love to send pictures and videos throughout the day of the pet's activities and any extra-cute moments. I make it a habit to send short write-ups of the day and the pet's activities that day so that my clients feel as connected as possible to their pets.

“Isa saved my butt doing a last minute walk when my other sitter just didn’t show up. She has always been very responsive and flexible. We appreciate her so much!”

“I only needed a few minutes with Liz and my dog to know he was in good hands. Liz has been prompt, reliable, kind, and competent. Perfect person to walk my skittish dog.”

About: With over 5 years of experience handling small to medium dogs, I've provided expert care through regular walks, feeding, grooming, and pet sitting for family friends. My passion for animals ensures they receive personal attention, comfort, and love, whether it's during daily routines or when they need a trusted sitter while their owners are away ! As a full-time graduate student, pet care fits into my routine by allowing me to balance my academic responsibilities with my love for walking outdoors. Since I’m new to Lynchburg, it’s a great way to explore the community while giving dogs the care and attention they need. I’m available evenings on weekdays and all day on weekends, with added flexibility on Wednesdays and Fridays, making it easy to adjust to your pet’s needs! I currently live in an apartment, which provides a great space to walk dogs outdoors. In the past, I've pet-sat in clients' homes, always respecting their space and following specific instructions to ensure their pets receive the best care. Although I don’t have any pets of my own after losing my dog two years ago, I approach each pet with the same love and attention I would for my own, ensuring they feel safe and comfortable while in my care.

About: For as long as I can remember, animals have always been apart of my life. I have owned a wide variety of animals such as dogs, cats, goats, chickens, and a guinea pig. I am a third year student at James Madison University studying biology with a pre veterinary medicine minor. I have worked in the veterinary industry for 5 years as a kennel technician and veterinary assistant. This job has not only allowed me to become adequately trained in pet care, but has also shown me how much I love being around animals. I am so excited to continue my pet care journey and I am looking forward to getting to meet more people and pets!! I am a full time student, but spend almost all of my free time with animals. To care for pets at my clients homes, I either stay overnight or return multiple times a day to ensure pets stay safe, healthy, and happy. I make it my priority to care for pets in the same manner as their owners would. With that being said, I work diligently to follow clients instructions to better ensure a smooth experience for you and your pet.

About: I love animals. I have been watching both cats and dogs for years. Anything from Long walks, simple feeds or just quality time that they love. I been animal sitting for years and have worked it as a side job off and on. Open schedule being at home almost everyday. I can take care of the fur babies anytime. who wouldn’t wanna spend time with the cute animals. Clients home I try to respect what the animal is used to. If a client tells me they can’t go upstairs, no upstairs. I’m not one to disrespect or mess up peoples homes. I try to just spend the whole time with the animals. In my home I care for many animals with different schedules and let them have space but also give them the attention all animals need. They are like our babies and I think animals need loved.

About: As a pet parent myself, I treat every pet like family not just a job. I know how important it is to have someone who genuinely cares. “I send consistent updates, pics, and videos so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and in good hands.I take time to learn your pet’s personality, quirks, and routines to give them care that feels like home.Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or just being calm company, I adapt to your pet’s energy and needs not the other way around. I also help with my mom's pet transport business so Ive been around all breeds and know how to care for them. Pet care is naturally part of my everyday life ,I'm a pet parent myself, so my days already revolve around feeding, walking, playing, and giving lots of love. Adding other pets into my routine just feels like expanding the family In My Home When pets stay in my home, they’re treated like family. I make sure they have a cozy, stress-free space with plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddles. I stick to their usual routine,mealtimes, potty breaks, and sleep schedule to help them feel at ease. I also keep my home clean, pet-friendly, and safe, with lots of toys and comfy spots for relaxing. In Your Home (house sitting/drop-ins): When I’m in your pet’s home, I aim to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible. I follow feeding instructions, walking times, medication needs, and any quirks that make your pet feel secure. I also make sure your home stays clean and respected:mail brought in, lights managed, and your pet loved on every step of the way. I’m big on communication, so you’ll always get daily updates, photos, and any notes on how things are going. Whether your pet is playful or more low-key, I match their vibe and make sure they’re comfortable and cared for.

About: I don’t just care for your pets, I strive to make them see me as part of the family! Also love to clean, so you know you will return to your house with it being just as clean as you left it. Ample training with young pups as well as caring for older animals. I work a job where I make my own hours, so I can fit whatever requirements into my schedule. No need to worry about long stretches without your loved one being checked on! Multiple walks are given each day (depending on their needs), with the option to run with them if they are high-energy dogs. All for the cuddles and playing inside for those that need either or both instead!

About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. I am very relaxed and careful with pets so they know I am a friend and not an enemy like the mail man. I understand how important your pet because I have pets at home and they mean the world to me!! I love giving dogs and cats the attention they desire and all the petting they could ever want! I also enjoy walking and exploring new places. I have helped raising puppies 4 times with my family. I also know how to treat older dogs as I’ve had quite a few in my day. I have never had an issue with any dog I have came across! Never been bitting by a dog, not scarred of big dogs! I currently work full time from 8am to 5pm M-T, Fridays I work 8am-12. Steph my fiancé works 7:30 am to 3:30-4 she’s a high school teacher so it can vary. I wake up around 7 am to let our dogs outside and make sure all of them have clean water and a cup of food. I typically leave Mando outside as he prefers to run around in our fenced in yard than stay inside all day. When I get home I let the dogs out and feed again. Then it’s just play time!

About: I began pet sitting as a teen and have been in and out of the pet service industries for over 10 years. I can do training, basic grooming maintenance, walks, play and cuddle time, learning new tricks. Totally specific to your wishes and your pet’s needs! I have experience with boarding being a boarding trainer for the last 3 years with dogs ages 12weeks and potty training to senior care management - from Yorkies to Cane Corsos! I specialize in working with reactive dogs or dogs who need an experienced sitter. I am familiar and professionally trained in the use of tools (ecollars, muzzles, slip-leads, etc.) if that is something your dog requires. I have some experience as a former vet assistant so keeping your babies safe is a top priority and know how to administer dog first aide until the pet can be seen by a vet if any unforeseen circumstances arise. I am familiar with allergies, sensitivities, nutrition and medication management. I have a pretty flexible schedule so please reach out to me with your dates as soon as possible and I can get you on the books. Scheduling is based on a first come first serve basis. I am happy to come to your home so your babies are as comfortable as possible in their own environment while you are away! I would love to take your dogs on adventures and outings upon request at an additional fee depending on the type of outing. Taking them out to parks or on hikes, store visits or swimming if that’s something they enjoy (dogs must have a up-to-date Lepto vaccine for swims) or just out for some playtime in the yard. I am able to crate rest your dog if you so desire and do walks in the neighborhood. I have all my own equipment for long-line enrichment sniff walks. I have professional experience reading dog body language and behavior and will never make them interact with other dogs if they are not comfortable with it, I’m happy to advocate for their personal space. Due to liability concerns unknowing the temperament of strange dogs, I will not take your dogs to “dog parks.”

About: I grew up in a home that had many different kinds of pets- from pups to kitties, to rabbits & guineas! I love being able to give them the love that I would give my own. I have a golden girl of my own now that is my best friend, and I hope to share that love to your fur babies. I am currently working part-time only, so I have the ability to care for your babies around that schedule and what works best for you! My golden girl can be kept in her own space at home, so that I am able to provide a safe space for yours, if needed. She is free to roam when I am home, and is also very comfortable around other animals.
