“Erika is absolutely amazing! She provided multiple video/picture updates throughout the day. She made us feel very reassured our pets were in good hands. She is an excellent communicator, very trustworthy, and responsible. I had no worries while away on vacation with my family. The house was also immaculate when arrived back home. Will absolutely be using Erika’s services again!!”


“Averi did great with Sandy. We were gone on an extended trip and Averi stayed with Sandy in our home for 16 days. She followed all instructions for Sandy and really carred for her. Sandy loved her time and we got a lot of pictures while we were gone. This helped keep us from worrying to much. She walked, played with, and gave Sandy her medicine. It was christmas and Sveri got Sandy a puppy stocking and photo with Santa. She went above everything we expected. I highly recommend her.”


“Rachel was wonderful. She arrived promptly and did an excellent job of taking care of our animals. She gave us updates and left the house pristine. We would recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a cat and/or dog sitter!”


“Ashley was very sweet, punctual, and neat. I could tell my puppy felt at ease with her. I would absolutely rebook with her!”


“Wesley was amazing. Kept in contact with us. Took amazing care of our pups. Let us know if any issues. She even got my little old pup to cuddle and that is rare. He really doesn’t like many people! She was amazing and we plan to use her again and again!!”


“I can’t say enough good things about Mark! He was so kind and attentive, truly gave our two dogs the absolute best possible care while we were out of town. He was easy to communicate with and took wonderful care of our home while staying there. While away, a storm blew through Richmond and knocked down the electric line running across our backyard. Mark was so helpful at communicating everything going on, and took our dogs to a hotel two nights to make sure they were comfortable and safe. We will 100% be using Mark next time we need care for our dogs and recommending him to anyone needing a sitter!!!”


“Kim provides superior TLC to our two dogs. Exceptional communication throughout her stay at our home. Empathy for our youngest dog who is fearful of everything. Kim rocks!”


“Janei was great! She is super responsive in the app and she was so sweet when we met in person for a meet and greet with Olive. She took great care of Olive and our place while we were out of town and would definitely book with her again!”

“Helena was everything we hoped for in a dog and house sitter. I appreciate so much all of the photos, the detailed updates on their time together, and how proactive Helena was with communicating. We cannot wait to be her repeat clients. If you want someone that you can trust that your dog will quickly be obsessed with, look no further. Seriously, thank you so much, Helena!”


About: I have five years of professional dog care in many different spheres. I have previously managed two different kennels, groomed many dogs around Richmond, and am K9-CPR certified. I have experience training puppies, adults, and seniors basic obedience, leash manners, and beginner agility. I am well versed in administering medications. Prior to working with dogs as a career, I have experience caring for many dogs over my life, from family pets to petsitting in the neighborhood. I am happy to provide enrichment activities for your animal as well, such as bubble play, doga (dog yoga), or drives to hiking locations. I am committed to being completely available for any of your pet needs! My main focus is comfortable care for your critter, no matter how early or late that may be. I feel that years of experience in caring for animals who are being boarded, hanging out at daycare, or getting a stylish spa day have taught me so much in how to interact and build trust with many animals no matter the situation. I believe a combination of patience, kindness, intuition, and some snackos can really foster a safe, positive environment for everybody.

About: I have 3 cats and 2 mice, so I have a lot of experience taking care of cats and small animals. I love dogs and have pet-sat for my friends with small and medium size dogs I work a full time job Monday - Friday. I am available to do drop-ins before 7:30am or after 4:30 pm on weekdays. I am always available in the evenings or weekends. I will follow whatever guidelines the owner's give. Otherwise, my base care is to give dogs 2 walks a day and at least 30 minutes of playtime for both dogs and cats. Ensure the pets are fed and gone potty/clean litterboxes.

“It was a pleasure working with Chelsea. She promptly responds to messages and was wonderful with our pets. She watched Mel and Brody in our home and the home and pups were great when we returned home. Highly recommend her and we will rebook with her if she's available!”


“Kara was a great sitter for our cat Mateo. She took great care of him. Played with him and snuggled with him, sent us daily photo updates, and we came back to a nice clean house. Thank you Kara!”

“Audrey was a fantastic sitter and spent time with our pup after he had surgery. She was on time, super friendly and took great care of our dog. Will definitely plan to have her come sit again!”


“We had another great getaway thanks to Kim. I always feel confident my house and pups are well cared for by her! She’s very flexible when the travel gods throw a curveball too.”


“Hallie was really sweet, took great care of our dog while we were away, was patient with his anxious nature, and left our home in clean condition. Would definitely use her again!”


About: Hi, I'm Rebecca! I'm available to do walks, drop ins, or sitting. While I'm fun and relaxed in personality, I take responsibilities towards pets seriously. I care for them as I'd want mine cared for, with the general attitude that they're all someone's baby. I value clear communication on both ends, any helpful instructions from you, and knowing how you like things done. Every pet is different, and your personal requirements and preferences are important. More about me: I've lived with pets my whole life, and started helping with their care as soon as I was old enough. Dogs and cats were my first animals, and I've always loved having a dog for company while enjoying the outdoors and beautiful weather. I've walked and sat for dogs of friends and neighbors, and it's always been an enjoyable experience. I do have some experience with senior dogs, dogs who need medication, and I'm comfortable giving oral or topical meds. Taking care of puppies is also something I enjoy. I just ask for any special needs or training instructions to be clear and detailed so I can give the best care possible. Fun Fact: I actually completed a veterinary assistant certification course in Maryland many years ago. I never ended up with employment relevant to that, but the experience was worth it. The educational clinic hours were great for becoming more comfortable handling different breeds and sizes. I've been helping care for a family member at home, along with our two cats, our older dog, and my three birds. I love getting outside, and have plenty of time to enjoy a walk, or spend time with, a new animal companion. I care for pets according to the client's instructions and preferences. I'm able to care for pets in their own home, yard, and for walks.

“Sent pictures daily and seemed to connect easily with Smitty, who frequently is shy and withdrawn. Smitty looked relaxed and happy. Great communicative communication and very reliable. Will hire again.”
