Dog Walkers in Stanley, VA

“Katie is AMAZING! She’s walks my puppy during the day so he can get some energy out and get some exercise while I’m at a work and let me just say he looks SO SO SOOOO happy in all of the pictures she sends! I love how she sends me picture of him through out the walk and a report of how the walk went! I 100% recommend Katie for any of your needs!”

“Alison was prompt, friendly and available on short notice. She sent photos of her walk and details of her walking route. Awesome... definitely will use again!”

“Lydia did a great job walking Zorro. Zorro came back from his walk feeling happy and tired!”

“Paige was super caring and interacted so genuinely with my pup! She sent fun photos and it was so nice knowing my dog had her there while I was at work. Beyond happy to have found her!”

“Jesse has really helped us out with Lucy, and has been able to handle her perfectly. Love his attention to any potential concerns and relay information about her walks. He has also been accommodating when we’ve needed short-notice visits.”

“She was amazing, she went above and beyond for my animals. She understood that the dogs needed time to relax out of their cages and gave them extra love. She sent daily updates and pictures. We will definitely use her again.”

About: Hey there! My name is Amanda, I’m a wine salesperson and I have a deep love for pups! I have one dog of my own, Theo, who is extremely friendly and playful with other dogs. If your pet needs social time that you can’t always provide, Theo and I are happy to help! If your dog doesn’t do well with other dogs, I’m also happy to come to you instead or keep them separated as needed. I have been around dogs my entire life and used to foster dogs for local shelters as well. I have experience with training and teaching dogs basic tricks and manners. I am accepting of all breeds and sizes, and just ask that your pet is dog-friendly and potty trained if they are to come over and hangout with us! It will be my goal to make sure your dog leaves happier than when they came. I look forward to meeting your sweet fur babies! PLEASE make sure your pet is UP TO DATE on grooming (especially nails!), vaccinations, and flea and tick medicine. I’ve had a couple of bad experiences and need to make sure I’m only allowing pets in my home that are safe & healthy! Thank you in advance I pride myself in providing my dogs structure and a set schedule. We get up at 7:30 every morning (after a few snuggles) for breakfast, then we go for a long walk. Before I head to work often take them to the dog park to work out some more of their energy. They then spend the day with my fiancé while I’m gone. We have dinner around 8pm, after our evening walk. Currently, since I have a 12 month old son, I am only available to work at my job on the weekends. This allows me to have a much more open schedule for pets. My fiancé and I also share the responsibility of pet sitting, so please inquire about specific dates as we may be able to have someone available at all times according to our schedule for those dates. I realize each pet is different, so I ask the owner help me personalize care for their unique pet! Normally I like to shower pets with love and play, for dogs that are reactive, have resource guarding, anxiety, or special needs, I modify my approach according to the owner’s preference. For me, communication is everything, and I will only do what I know you are comfortable with.

“Madison kept our black lab puppy while we were on vacation for a week. She did a great job. Our pup was spoiled, pampered, and even knew a few new tricks when we returned home! She was willing to work on potty training, too. Madison is very trustworthy and responsible, we trust her to provide care for our children (fur or real children) any time! We highly recommend Madison for any pet sitting/care giving needs!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life, and have been pet sitting my neighbors and friends cats and dogs for over 10 years. I love getting to know new pets, and I'm excited to meet yours! I am currently a part time student and part time CNA, and can easily fit quick or long pet visits and care into my schedule. I have lots of experience in caring for dogs, and have recently gotten more experience with cats. I am willing to work with the client to find what is best for them and their pet.

“Rebekah is highly recommended for pet care! Our dogs quickly warmed to her, even our skittish pup! She also helped us with our guinea pigs and kept us well informed, including pictures, while we were away. We will absolutely be reaching out to her again!”

“Moriah was so great for Walt! Not only did she help fill a need for us with a last minute cancellation, she was so responsive and great with our dog. She gave great feedback after every walk and was so kind. I would definitely hire again and recommend to friends!”

“I have know Melissa for many years. I met her through 4-H when her kids joined our dog training club Fauquier Puppy Pals. I immedately discovered that she was very knowledgeable in training and caring for dogs and she quickly became part of our training team. She is now the club's leader and has guided many kids and dogs to the 4-H State Dog Show. In the meantime, Melissa's experience with dogs continues to expand. She is a well qualified breeder and again her knowledge is immense as she is always educating herself. Her contacts within the community are broad. I find that I can always depend on her to offer great advice on questions about the care of my dogs. Melissa is a very dependable person and I can always trust her to follow through with responsibilities. As a caregiver of dogs, I trust Melissa immensely. She obviously loves all animals and their care is her upmost passion. She isn't squeamish about cleaning up accidents and muddy paws and ensures the animals in her care are well fed, clean and healthy. You can depend on her to come into your home and care for your animals. For this reason, I have used Melissa on several occasions to care for our 3 dogs when we have been out of town. Two of our dogs are on medications/special diets and I KNOW that she ensures they get their medication and their diet is followed. I highly recommend Melissa for caring for your pets.”

“When it comes to pets, Luca is so loving and caring! She takes really good care of her two beautiful cats, and even loves to play with mine. I think Luca will excel and provide great care to any animal she will encounter!”

“Our 4 pets LOVE Rachelle! She is reliable, caring and responsible. It is such a huge piece of mind to be able to go out of town and know that our fur babies are loved and cared for! We HIGHLY recommend Rachelle. She is a pet sitter extraordinaire! Beth D.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I could remember . My Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets.

“Fiona was so loving and sweet with our cat, Beaumont. She took care of him multiple times last summer and we wholeheartedly recommend her. She nailed the basics-- feeding and all that good stuff-- and she also really took time to get to know Beaumont. He quickly warmed up to her and soon we were getting adorable "happy cat" pics. Fiona's communication is excellent. We loved getting updates and pics from Fiona during her visits. It was like a little window into my cats' day, and it always put a smile on my face. We always knew when she was coming and how each visit went. We're so grateful she was able to help us out! If you need a sitter who's not just doing a job but genuinely cares about your pets, Fiona's your person.”
