About: What sets me apart is the hands-on experience I have caring for dogs with all different personalities, ages, and needs. In addition to having three dogs and two cats of my own, I have fostered dogs through Bullies to the Rescue and volunteer with Richmond Animal Care and Control, where I serve as a Volunteer Adoption Coordinator Assistant and a trained Three Paw dog walker. I am comfortable working with dogs who may have behavioral challenges and have experience with senior and sick dogs who need extra patience, attention, and care. I truly take the time to get to know each pet as an individual and adjust my care to what makes them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I don't just see pet sitting as a job—I genuinely love animals and treat every pet in my care like they are my own. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM in East End Henrico, so pet care fits naturally into my routine before and after work. I am available for brief morning visits before work and have much more flexibility after 3:30 PM for longer walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I have open availability on weekends and can be flexible with scheduling. For house sitting, I am also willing to travel outside my normal service area when staying in your home. I take scheduling seriously and will make sure I have enough time to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. I care for every pet as an individual and take the time to learn their routine, personality, and specific needs. In a client's home, I follow their normal schedule as closely as possible so their pets feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, companionship, and love, while also respecting pets who need a little space. I am comfortable caring for senior, sick, special-needs, and behaviorally challenging dogs, as well as cats and kittens. I will follow feeding instructions, medication or special-care directions, and any other routines you provide. Most importantly, I want your pets to feel safe, happy, and cared for—and I want you to have peace of mind knowing they are in good hands.

About: Lifelong Pet Lover with Years of Experience Hi, I’ve been around pets my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I started walking and feeding my family dogs at just 7 years old, twice a day, making sure they had plenty of playtime and fresh air in our grassy yard. From playful puppies to gentle giants, I’ve handled dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m confident with potty training and establishing healthy routines for any breed. Since I was 15, I’ve also cared for cats, both my family’s and my friends’. I keep litter boxes clean and ensure they stay off surfaces where they might break or damage anything, all while making sure they feel safe and cared for. Whether it’s a long walk, a cozy cuddle, or responsible in-home care, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’d love the chance to care for your furry friend. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time throughout the week to give your pet the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday drop-in, or overnight stay, I’m available and committed to working around your needs. Your pet will never feel rushed or overlooked, they’ll have my full attention and care. Comfortable, Spacious, and Pet-Friendly Home Your pet will feel right at home here. I have a large backyard and a spacious home with plenty of room for dogs to play, explore, and relax. While the yard is not fenced, I always supervise outdoor time to ensure pets stay safe and secure. If you use training tools like an e-collar and provide them, I’m happy to use them responsibly and only according to your guidance. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, just like family.

“Richard (Allen) is a great guy, good communication, punctual, and took lots of great pictures of our pup. Highly recommended and would definitely hire again.”

“This was our first time using Rover and Haleigh was fantastic! She came by to meet us and get her instructions a few days before her visit. She sent the cutest pictures of our dogs (mid tail wag - obviously loving every minute she was there!) She wrote a great report of her visit and even went as far as to clean up our senior dog’s accident and hand feed our anxious younger dog. She truly went above and beyond and we will definitely be using her again!”

About: I have taken care of dogs ranging from 10 pounds to 160 pounds my entire life. I have owned chihuahua dachshund mix, akitas, huskies, and German shepherds; so I understand big breeds as well as smaller ones. I have helped family members and neighbors with their dogs growing up with house sitting and dog walking. I know how important furbabies are to families, and treat each and every one as I would my own. I currently work full time with every other Monday off. I go to work about 7 am and get home about 430 pm. I do have volleyball leagues on Monday Wednesday and Friday nights that I am gone for 2 hours between 6-11pm as it varies based on game time. I love to hike and be outside so taking the dogs for walks a non issue. I treat all furbabies as if they were my own. I adjust my schedule accordingly to accommodate the animals as best as I can. I have given insulin shots and medication to animals and am comfortable with it.

“Lorrin is a pleasure to work with and our family definitely appreciates her attention to detail, professionalism, and care for our fur babies.”

“We had a great experience with Marina! She is reliable, caring, and wonderful with our dog. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in good hands while we work such long hours. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”

“Jess was such a great choice to watch my Sammy boy. We were gone from 5/22-6/1 and had no idea it was getting VERY warm here in Iowa. We did not yet have our window air conditioners in. At one point, it got to 85 in our house. I was able to have a neighbor install the window ac’s. Jess was concerned for Sam and offered to stop by to check on him (on a day that wasn’t originally on the calendar). I truly appreciate her doing that! We were in Florida and that helped eased my mind!! We’re already set up to have her take care of him later this summer. Thanks again Jess!”

“I would a million times over book Zoe as a sitter. She house sitter for us on a short notice booking. During that time between the booking, my cat broke his heel bone. Zoe stepped in provided top notch care for my fur babies and was there to provide the kind of care needed during a business trip I could not rearrange. She sent photo updates and administered meds for my poor guy and his little brother. I couldn’t have been happier with the service provided and the care she showed to my pets and home. She did a meet and greet and the boys took to her right away. I highly recommend Zoe to care for your fur babies.”
