Cat Sitting in Skinquarter

“Laura was very thorough during her visits with our pup. She communicated to us and made him a happy boy by playing with him during their time together.”

“Garrett was awesome! He was very communicative from the beginning and was on time and attentive to our cats' needs every day. One of our boys had a little accident and he went out of his way and cleaned it up! Would definitely recommend him and will use him again in the future!”

“Tom was a superstar with our newly adopted, very shy 6 month old puppy. We only had the pup 2 weeks when Tom agreed to help us with a “let out” for crate training. This was not an easy task as the pup was still adjusting to his new home. Tom had patience and understanding with our pup and we appreciated it more than he knows. Tom was trustworthy and very attentive to the needs of our pup. His communication was stellar as well. We highly recommend Tom!!!!”

“Took care of our Duke and made sure to be patient with both of us! We had to do this last min and I am greatful we did Hannah was fantastic and answered each message quickly and politely each time while we decided what we needed and could do. And the price was very reasonable.”

About: I grew up in our farm owning & taking care of all kinds of animals. Fostered cats/dogs with Humane Societies in different states before we finally settled after military life. Growing up on a farm surrounded by animals, I’ve developed strong intuition to sense pets' unique needs; if they are feeling sick, anxious, etc. I can follow with your pet’s medical needs/routine. I’m home all day except for quick errands hence pets under my care get lots of human interactions, cuddles & play time. Frequent potty breaks. I believe in holistic lifestyle hence I use pet friendly; no harsh chemical cleaning supplies. Hygiene is super important to me. Old habits from my hospital volunteering days + I’m a clean freak as per my family 😆 I'm a homemaker. I enjoy taking care of my indoor plants, garden, and our mini goldendoodle Hazel. I'm home majority of the day; hence your fur babies will get to have lots of cuddles, love, and playtime in our big fenced in yard. We have lovely, clean & spacious home; hence pups get to have a lot of space/freedom to roam. Or retrieve if they want some space. No choking hazard toys. I love taking pictures, videos & update with your precious pooch. You can FaceTime your pets if it’s extended stay or as per need. I love making pets stay as comfortable as possible & giving peace of mind to owners. As a pet owner myself, I know how much small things matter! I've a huge fenced in yard, Hazel, our super friendly mini golden doodle would give a company to any dog & make them feel comfortable. Lots of play, cuddles & free to roam. However, I've an ability to gate off the rooms if it's needed, or as per request. I live near the lake & take my dog to daily AM/PM walks. As a pet owner, I know the anxiety of trying to find a safe home to fur babies, someone who'd love/care for them as their own.

About: Growing up, I have always found it easy and rewarding to take care of animals I have learned to be very attentive and receptive to the needs of furry friends and just find them to be such nice listeners in return 😂 We used to have a house full of dogs and cats and it was more a pleasure, than a chore, to get to interact and take care of them. All that to say, I am completely confident and comfortable in my ability to assist in any way when it comes to our four (or 1,2, and 3) legged pals! I just moved to the Richmond/Midlothian area so I’m looking for some good chances to earn some savings doing what I love!! I have pretty open availability! I don’t sit at my house only for the fact of my two French and English bulldog babies! They tend to get tense and wouldn’t want any discomfort for any other pet! I am very respectful to the needs of the client and their furry companions!!

“Will absolutely book Tayana again. She went above and beyond for my senior dog and overall exceeded expectations. She is truly a gem!”

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, so caring for pets has always come naturally to me. I love spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I understand how important pets are to their families, and I always treat them like my own. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy giving animals the attention, exercise, and love they need. I’m home for the summer as a college student, so I have a pretty flexible schedule for pet care. While I’ll also be working a part-time job, I’ll still have plenty of time throughout the week to give pets attention, walks, playtime, and care. I’m organized and dependable, and I’ll make sure your pet’s needs fit into my daily routine and schedule. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so the pet feels comfortable and stress-free. I pay attention to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions the owner provides. I always make sure pets are safe, supervised, and given plenty of attention and care while their owners are away. I also respect the client’s home by keeping things clean, organized, and secure.

“We are so glad we found Amy, she was always on time and took great care of my kitty and also 2 little birds. Johnny liked her right away and it made it so much easier to be out of country for a while. It was nice to receive photos and a message every day!! Thank you Amy, we hope you will come back!”

“This was our first Rover experience. Kaylee was a perfect Rover for Percy, our young and adventurous cat. She didn’t hesitate to take him out on his walks not knowing where he would take her in the yard. She let us know what they were up to every visit with follow up photos. All Percy’s needs were met.”

About: I have always loved animals since I was a little girl, and I am always looking for ways to spend more time with them in my freetime. I am a college student home for the summer available 7 days a week! I have a job during the day from about 10am 4 pm, but can visit before and after and during the late nights. I spend a lot of time with my dog Reese, and would always respect the homes of my clients and make sure they are comfortable.

“I reached out to Julia rather last minute for help with checking in on my two kitties while I was away on a trip. She was very flexible with the last minute accommodations which was awesome. She was punctual and professional! She sent lots of pictures and kept me updated on her check-ins. One of my cats needed some medication and Julia was happy to help with that. Going on a trip can be stressful worrying about your fur children, but Julia was great and I didn’t have any doubts that she was taking good care of them.”

About: My previous experience in pet care includes employment at Holiday Barn Pet Resorts as a pet care associate, volunteering at Richmond Animal League, and pet sitting for a wide variety of animals. Pet sitting for pets around my neighborhood was my first job! Growing up with pets of my own my whole life has also allowed me to become accustomed to caring for animals of all different sizes, ages, and temperaments. As a college student on summer break, I am opening my schedule up through mid-August and plan to fill my days/weeks with pet care services! Help me keep busy :) I am currently offering walks, drop ins, and/or overnight services, and I have experience with caring for pets in others’ homes. As of right now I am unable to provide boarding services.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, I currently have 4 dogs and a cat, so I’m very used to daily pet care, walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving lots of attention. I’ve also pet sat for friends and family many times over the years. I know every pet has a different personality and routine, and I always try to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy being around animals! I currently work part-time at a salon, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets throughout the week. I’m able to provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, companionship, and lots of attention. I’m very used to daily pet routines since I care for multiple pets of my own, and I always try to make sure animals feel comfortable, cared for, and stress-free while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, behavior changes, and making sure pets feel calm and secure in their environment. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats with different personalities and energy levels, and I always try to give them patient, loving, and dependable care. I’m also happy to follow any special instructions to keep your pet comfortable and maintain their normal routine as closely as possible.

“Our dogs love your care, kindness and affection. We thank you!!”

“Mariah did a great job and our Savannah was very pleased with everything. I would highly recommend Mariah for any pet needs.”

About: Growing up my family always had at least one or more pets of various breeds so I have 20+ years of experience around animals. I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, lizards, rabbits, goats, and hedgehogs. Personally, my husband & I have 2 dogs currently, 9 & 10 years old, one having epilepsy & is dependent on medication. I have helped raise/care for/train puppies, kittens, baby rabbits, & baby goats. The only pet I'm not comfortable with is snakes, my little sister has one but I only look at it from 3ft away in its enclosure, haha. I work part time Tu/W/Th 8A - 5P, I do not mind caring for pets those days, however I will be gone all day. Otherwise, I'm available for your pets needs! My personal routine with my pets: My husband helps me care for our pets daily but his schedule is a bit different than mine, so our dogs are let out at least within 4-6 hours those days. Otherwise, we let them out every 2-4 depending on their needs (which they have been trained to lets us know if they need to go sooner). Our medical dog is on a 12 hr medication schedule. I'd prefer to care in my clients home due to one of my dogs having a reactive past, it was quite a transition when we inherited our other dog. If you have a specific routine, I'm ready to follow it to the T! I'm comfortable walking dogs on leash, hanging out/playing with them in a fenced yard, or just chilling inside. As mentioned, I have experience with medically dependent pets. I have an escape artist, so I'm always vigilant of their proximity to me and prepared to run/chase in the event something happens. I can stay at the home with the pets or I can visit throughout the day!
