“Ashley responded quickly to my need for a house visit on the following day. She chatted with me about the dogs since she had never met our dogs before. All went well--she sent photos of the visit and left a nice note. I would be happy to have her come see our pups again.”


About: I’ve owned and have taking care of pets for years. Would love to help folks out now that I’m retired. Reliable, dependable and own property and near trails. Retired and happiest around animals. Love walking, hiking and being outside. My home is clean and pet friendly. I have trails nearby and live on 2 acres I have 2 acres and trails. Or happy to give care in your home walking, visiting or staying over. I’m healthy and active and ready!


“Michael was very responsive to my messages. He also did a great job with my dogs! They got a lot of love and play time in with Michael (and got pictures, which was great!) while I was at work. I will definitely be using Michael’s services in a regular basis.”


“Brittney and Steve are GREAT! I have an 11-week old GoldenDoodle puppy with lots of energy and they walk him, play with him, and he's always so excited to see them. I highly recommend Brittney if you want to make sure your pups are well taken care of (like you'd care for them).”


“Melissa absolutely rocks! We were gone for 7 days. She kept our dogs walked, brushed, and skritched. We got daily updates and at least 2 pictures each day. She cared for our babies as of they were her own. Highly recommend!!”


“Maria was great and my boys warmed up to her immediately. She was on time, followed all special instructions, and did absolutely amazing! Marco and Brody will be happy to have her check in again. Thank you Maria!”


“Tyler is great! He was very professional and took Brewer on a long walk that drained all his energy. My puppy was much calmer that night as he got plenty of playtime in the afternoon. Due to work it can be difficult for me to spend a proper lunch break with my dog, so Tyler really helped in that regard. You can tell he loves animals and can connect with them on their level. I’d recommend others to book Tyler as well.”


About: I've had dogs my whole life and have experience walking them, giving medications when needed and just being there to be their friend and make them less anxious. Years ago I found a sitter to look after my dog when I go to work and I still use Rover today when I'm working. I'm looking to return the favor to others who need their pets looked after and have the peace of mind to know they are being taken care of in their own environment. I currently work Friday, Saturday and Sunday so most weeks I'm available Monday through Thursday to devote to fitting pets into my schedule. I've always had a soft spot for dogs my whole life and it's fulfilling to me to help others with their pets as people have helped me. As my work schedule changes, I’ll update this to reflect so. I currently reside in Windigrove Apartment Homes so if you reside there, I’m very familiar with everything in the complex and have a lot more flexibility for pets within the same neighborhood. I'm comfortable doing whatever your pet needs. I've good with walking dogs as I have two of my own, administering medications, and just giving them some TLC and attention to ease anxiety.

About: I’ve had experience with helping with puppies and other ages of dogs. I personally have a cat of my own and I’ve had 4 years of experience with cats. I am currently working 35-40 hours a week and I am mostly free in the afternoons and evening. I am completely free on Sundays too! I follow the care instructions outlined by the owner and treat the pets with so much love. I can play with the pets as needed!

About: I’ve always had at least one dog in my home until my Roscoe passed a little over a year ago. I have experience with all ages…puppies to seniors. I used to be a volunteer dog walker at Shenandoah Valley Animal Services Center, so I have experience with rescue pets as well. I’ve been asked on a number of occasions to pet sit or check in on pets for friends while they are away from home. I see that there is a real need for pet care in our community, so I decided to put my skills and love for animals to work! ****At this time, I do not have any availability for daily dog walking. I am available for pet sitting and drop in visits weekends (Friday through Monday), unless my calendar states otherwise. I currently work part-time (4 nights) third shift in health care. I’m available for dog walking or drop in visits between 10 and 1 Monday through Friday and pet sitting in your home or drop-in visits on weekends (Friday through Monday). If you live in my immediate neighborhood, pet sitting can be arranged for longer periods, as long as it’s ok to leave overnight for work. I like to take frequent walks, depending on the temperature outside and the age and health of your dog. For younger and more active dogs, I enjoy lots of playtime and interaction, or I can chill on the couch with your dog if he/she is older and less active! Your pets miss you terribly when you’re away; I want to make your absence as pleasant for them as possible!

About: I have taken care of many different breeds of cats and dogs in my 18 years. I’m saving for college to become a vet ! I’m currently working between 12:30 and 10:00 tues-sun at Sweet Scoops in Stuarts Draft. I’m willing to work around those times to meet your animal needs ! ! I have an open yard with lots of acres. I have a long driveway and I’m willing to walk the whole mile with your pet.

About: Hello, I am excited to meet you and your pup. I have worked professionally in clinic and in behavior for the last 21 years. I am a positive reinforcement based trainer for Good Pup. I have 3 personal fur babies and I foster with Save Rocky The Great Dane Rescue. I am currently working part time time so I have time in my schedule to devote to your fur kids. I have a doggie door for the emergency potties and I enjoy training so that can be part of the routine. I have a fenced in yard and I am able to provide mental enrichment as well as physical walks/Sniffari adventures and I have personal pups to keeps your busy! I have the ability to crate and even do drop bys at your house if needed.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs in our house and caring for them was something I learned at an early age. My husband and I have had adopted German Shepherds for the past 20 years and I cannot imagine not having at least one in the house. I am currently unemployed but looking for part-time work so I can be available most days between 09 AM - 6PM. Other schedules will be considered individually as needed. I will be happy to come feed, walk or play with your fur-baby at your home, and follow your instructions in detail. I am familiar with giving medications in pill form as well if needed.

Whether hiking, playing ball, or simply providing comfort, she brings joy and energy to every pet she watches.”
