About: Hello! My name is Ellie S. I am 29 year sales and marketing professional who enjoys house sitting and dog walking on the side to keep life interesting. I work from home full time which means I have a flexible schedule that allows me to have greater availability. I grew up with pets from the time I was 4 years old- I can't remember a time before we had dogs. I currently own one pit bull/husky mix who I’ve raised from 8 weeks old. I have provided pet care for several families. The dogs I have cared for have ranged in size from small lap dog to medium sized lab. This care has ranged from short stays during the day to overnight stays for a weekend. I have experience walking, feeding, watering, giving oral medication, and any other general care needs. I work full time but it’s completely from home, so I have a lot of flexibility for both house sitting and for drop in visits! I only do care at clients homes as my place is a rental and doesn’t allow for any pets on the premises that aren’t on the lease. Depending on needs I am comfortable having dogs loose in the house with me, I can crate as needed, I can manage keeping certain pets separate from others if needed, and am happy to follow any instructions specific to the pets and property!

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: With over 30 years of experience in animal care, I’m your go-to pet sitter! I’ve cared for a wide range of animals, from dogs and cats to guinea pigs, mice, and hamsters. I am dependable, trustworthy, and truly passionate about animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the best care, love, and attention. Why Choose Me: • Extensive experience with various animals • Reliable and trustworthy • Animals naturally respond well to me • Personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs I currently work full-time but have four days off, which I can dedicate to animal care over the weekends. I’m flexible and can accommodate most schedules on weekends, provided I have about three days’ advance notice to ensure proper arrangements. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I have successfully trained my own dogs with strong recall, and they do not roam. If I care for your pet in my home, rest assured they’ll be under my control at all times. With your permission, we can visit a designated dog park of your choice, or I can take them to one of my favorite local dog parks if that’s acceptable to you.

About: With over 50 years of pet ownership and caretaking experience as a foster through Lab Rescue of Greater Richmond, I would treat your furry friends as my own. I’ve had both dogs and cats and am comfortable administering medications and working with pets of all ages. As a retiree with no pets of my own at the moment, it’d be a great joy to take care of yours. I’m fully retired so I have plenty of time available to devote to the care and well-being of your pets. I’m happy to do scheduled drop-in visits during the day or overnights if needed throughout Augusta County. As a former foster parent, I have worked with dogs of varying comfort levels and special needs. I would take care of your pets with the same level of care and support as my own. I’m just as happy to go on a nice walk as I am to be a couch potato - whatever your pet needs, I’m here for them.

“Cara has walked for me before and each time, I am always very pleased! Her response time is very quick and she communicates very well. My dog Stella enjoys her time with her too!”

About: My dog-sitting history is primarily dogs with a variety of health issues and idiosyncrasies. Does your dog have special needs or odd habits? I've got it covered! Normies welcome too. ;) I work full time during the week, so I'm available weekends if you need me during the day or I can lend my services on weekdays evenings/mornings depending on proximity. I'm religious about monitoring doors and making sure everyone is appropriately harnessed/leashed. I have experience administering topical and oral medications and can maintain time-sensitive care schedules.

About: Does taking care of a goldfish named Dorothy (named after Elmo’s goldfish of course) at age 4 count? I have always had pets and I love all animals, at the moment I have my bearded dragon, my fish, and my senior cat I work second shift, perfect for those who work 9-5 who need someone to needs there dogs and cats cared for in the morning time. My cat is the queen of my house. Since she was up until recently indoor/outdoor (we moved), my main focus is to keep her senior brain enriched and stimulated. You’d never think she was 15 years old with how she darts around. My bearded dragon is in a palace of an enclosure, she enjoys looking out her window where she must think she is the guard dog. She eats out of my hand and loves trying new food.

“Timely. Loves dogs. My dog loves her. Flexible.”
