About: Hi! My name is Alexis, I am 27 years old, and I have been around animals my entire life. Growing up I helped my dad with training his rabbit dogs and attending to their needs while he was at work or etc. I am born and raised in Amherst, VA. I own my own townhouse in Madison Heights. Although, the area is not fenced in there is a nice big yard for your fur-baby to get plenty of exercise and exposure to the sun and fresh air!! There is sidewalks in the neighborhood that makes it easy for taking walks. I am here to care for your fur-baby as you would. I will pet, feed, walk, play, brush attend to your fur-baby's needs. You and your fur-baby will be happy with my services. I do work 40 hours a week from home which allows me to have more time at home to attend to your fur-baby. Your dog/cat will be able to roam freely in the house unless otherwise requested. I do not work weekends, so my schedule is very open and flexible. I can easily crate your dog as needed. All dogs are walked on leashes when we go for walks. I respect your wishes in my home and your home.

About: I love animals every one of them. It's very therapeutic to me. I don't have all of the experience as most people who are on here, however I'm very patient with animals I have grown up with animals my entire life and I've always enjoyed the responsibility of taking care of a pet. I go above and beyond for any animal,(including wildlife) every animal deserves dignity, especially when they are apart of a family. I am very calm even when animals may be fretted or not sure. It's all about body language. I have a lab and I enjoy taking him hiking, bike riding, and sometimes just simply loving the cuddles and kisses while relaxing. Animals love me I don't know what it is about me but I enjoy giving the I currently am in college at Liberty University, but I’m online, which gives me a lot of availability to care for and love on others pets. I’m not an animal whisperer by any means, haha, however, I feel like it sometimes. Animals in general but dogs really have a special place in my heart they are just drawn to me and I’m drawn to them. I pay a lot of attention to their body language. I think that’s super important. I am a jogger and love to be outside and stimulation for a dog is super essential in pet care and I always make sure that I’m not only giving tons of kisses and love while their hoomans are gone but ensure they are thriving and they feel safe and comfortable with me. It’s my only goal. They are amazing animals and while kennels aren’t a a terrible option, I find it more comforting to the animal to be in their own home.

“So grateful and pleased with Mackenzie’s service! They responded promptly and were able to take Apollo out for me on very short notice. Wonderful experience and would love to book again (:”

“Katelyn was extremely flexible helping me check on my pup due to a last minute cancellation. Great communication and patience with an anxious puppy.”

About: I work at a local animal hospital 4 days of the week. I spend my time off with my 2 dogs, 3 cats, and husband. I have an 12 yr old cairn terrier and a 3 yr old Australian cattle dog.

Grew this program by 70 percent. Taking care of 40 dogs on an average day. I’d like to spend time doing more of what I enjoy, which is spending time with and caring for animals. I currently have one availability. I can give any medications your pet may need. If they need to go to the vet I can take them. Need a nail trim? Haircut? I can take them.

About: I’ve helped care for various pets my entire life, including small caged animals like hamsters and gerbils, as well as birds, cats, and dogs. I have personal experience (no certifications) in training and grooming my pets, as well as administering medication. I’m a full time student on summer break and looking for something to do that makes me happy and helps others at the same time. For me, safety starts with having a discussion with each owner about the personality of the pet(s). It is important to understand what they do and do not like, and what traits I should be aware of to maintain the safety of the pet and myself. It’s also important to keep a pet leashed at all times during walks because even if a pet is well-behaved, we could encounter a other pets on walks that are not safe.
