About: I have loved animals all my life. I currently have the pleasure of caring for 3 dogs, a bird and an outdoor cat in my home. 1 of my dogs is senior and requires medication daily. I love birds and would board your bird in a heartbeat! I think pets just make life better. Until you need to find pet care and it’s super expensive! I offer low cost pet care in my home on the weekends so that you can go on a weekend trip. One day when I retire I hope to open that up to everyday of the week, but for now I work full time. My house has a large fenced backyard where dogs can roam and play. I also have a husky/border collie and a corgi mix who would love to be a companion to your dog for the weekend. They love when friends come to play. I currently care for my moms dog every time she goes on vacation and thought, hey, why don’t I start up this little pet sitting business on the side since I enjoy having furry buddies around. Everytime Brownie comes she gets treated like a queen with lots of attention and love. Don’t you want that for your dog, instead of a cold crate at the vet? Just hire me and your dog will feel like it’s on vacation too. I work full-time so a weekend situation would be best if you want your pet to have attention all day. Otherwise, I get home at 3 everyday and would be open to boarding during the week if you were okay with that. My dogs get let out around 10 am by my husband and just lounge and sleep all day until 3 pm when I get home. It works for us :) I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly dogs that can keep your dogs company. My other dog is senior and is separated from the bunch due to her being blind and deaf. She’s still loved like family, just in her own doggy play pen for safety. If you need senior dog care, I’m your sitter, as I have plenty of experience with my own shitzhu, Beauty. I always make sure there’s fresh water, and give snacks during the day. I dental bone a day and two meals. Whatever your dog’s food preferences are, I can do. I am used to giving medication daily as well.

“Our dog Maybre is a tad bit on the nervous side, he has only met Sarah (with us) one time before we left on our vacation. Despite all of that sarah did great with Maybre! She was very prompt with her schedule, loving to Maybre, and communicative with what was going on (including photos). I am happy that Maybre now has a new friend/sitter with Sarah!”

About: I am a compassionate experienced caregiver. I will provide safe and loving care so that your pets will feel happy and comfortable. I have always had dogs and cats in my life and would love to help you with yours! I worked as a licensed veterinary nurse for 11 years and am comfortable around all animals-big and small. I have one sweet girl, Nikki, a Yorkie mix, and understand how difficult it is to leave her when I’m gone, even for a few days! So I get that it can be stressful but I can assure you I will care for your pets as though they are my own. I will feed, walk, play, and clean up after them and send you daily pics if you like! I am currently retired, but would love to get started working again in the business of caring for pets. So I can be very flexible! I will happy to come to your home 2-3 times per day, whatever your needs are. You can trust that I am reliable. I would just request that you provide me with any special care instructions that your pet may have to make them feel as comfortable as possible while you are away.

“Communicative and took good care of my pups.”

“Deana did drop in visits for me. She was very responsive right off the bat and remained so. She sent me pictures of my cat when she visited. 10/10 would hire again!”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 15. I started working for a groomer as a bather for 7 years and have worked at Animal Care of Gloucester for 7 years. I am very well experienced in the their well being, animal behavior, walking, feeding, medicating, bathing. I would love to be able to help take care of animals in my free time. From puppies to seniors I have worked with them all. I am currently working looking for work but I would love to spend my free time taking care of animals. I do have my son every other weekend, so I will be available for pet sitting overnight every other weekend. I live at the end of a quarter mile dirt road off of the main streets, I do not have a fenced in yard but am able to leash walk as many times a day as needed. I have 5 babies of my own, 1 dogs, 2 cats, and a cockatiel that are very friendly and live other animals. I can easily crate if needed and provided and have a pet safe home. I am currently looking for work so anytime is perfectly fine. I do take & pick my son up from school everyday at 8:30am and 3:30pm. I can easily crate pets if needed. I live at the end of a quarter mile dirt road so there is very little traffic and plenty of space for walks.

“She is such a great sitter I needed her last min on a holiday and she was right there for Daisy! Thank you so much we will use her as our regular sitter!”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals cats, dogs, fish, and even plants! I love to help my friends, family, and more with walking their dog, feeding their cat, or watering plants! I work only a few days a week because I’m a stay at home mother so I would give your pup all my love. I’m available during the week from 11am - 8pm. I take my dogs on walks as well as play fetch at least once a day! I feed them twice a day and let them out every 2-3 hours. If i dog/cat sit for someone I go to their house 2 times a day to feed, walk, or whatever else I’m instructed to do.

About: I grew up in a family of animal lovers and have been surrounded by them ever since! I affectionately call my dog and cat "the boys" and am always working to make sure they have the best life possible. I was a dog walker in Richmond and worked with many different types of dogs and temperament's. From French Bulldogs who hate skateboards to a Great Pyrenes mix who just wanted to cuddle. I cared for my childhood dog when he had cancer and have had my current dog since he was a puppy, giving me experiences in the many stages of life and health. I've worked with a trainer and am familiar with best leash walking practices and reading dog body language. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am able to spend much of my time on pet care and services. I am happy to take your pets on "field trips" to my favorite local trails if that is something you're interested in. Safety is of upmost concern for me. Your dog will always be on a lead or in a fenced in backyard. I have experience with leash aggression so I will also prioritize avoiding other dogs on walks when necessary.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and babysat for 10 years now. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and take care of their pets! I am a recently graduated student so i have time during the day/evenings and weekends to play/take care of your pups! I’m available for Housesitting as well! I will do whatever is necessary for your dog to feel safe in the environment it’s around and ensure they are well taken care of!!

“Meredith did such a great job with our pups! Our rescues are very hesitant with anyone new, but she was able to get them to open up. Highly recommend!”

About: I have lived with dogs my whole life and am comfortable with all sizes and breeds, as well as cats. I am a collegiate soccer player, so any activity level is no problem for me! I have about 5 years of experience house and pet-sitting for neighbors and family friends. I am comfortable giving pets medication and taking them for long runs/walks. I am currently taking two online courses at Virginia Wesleyan University over the summer. I have responsibilities to practice and stay fit for the women's soccer team. I am free every day of the week aside from a few travelling trips and will devote all of my attention to your animals! I will be sure to provide the utmost standard of care to my client's homes and pets. No task is too much. Beyond caring for the animals, I can aid in chores and house upkeep. No pet will be put in an unsafe situation or made to feel stressed out under my watch.

About: Animals have always been a constant part of my life. I grew up in a home where there were always dogs and cats around, caring for them wasn’t just a responsibility, it was part of daily life. Over the years, I have personally raised and cared for three dogs of my own, each with different personalities and needs, which taught me patience, structure, and how to connect with animals on an individual level. Most recently, I adopted another dog into the family, adding even more joy and playful to the house. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I have experienced it all training, playtime, feeding routines, crate care, walks, and of course, lots of cuddles. Whether your pet is shy or social, active or relaxed, we understand how to make them feel safe, loved, and at home. I have a partner who has been pet sitting for her friends and co-workers last 4 years. I work at shipyard, but my work is pretty flexible that I can check out our dogs or any other pet frequently to make sure they receive enough attention love and most importantly care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I provide a calm and secure environment where dogs can relax and be themselves. I have a fully fenced big yard for safe outdoor play, and I supervise all interactions to make sure everyone is happy and comfortable. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible — from feeding schedules to crate preferences and bedtime habits — so they feel right at home. I never use harsh corrections; instead, I rely on positive reinforcement, patience, and gentle guidance. I also keep my home clean, pet-proofed, and free of anything unsafe. Whether your dog is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, we make sure they always feel safe, respect. I will keep sending regular updates and pictures or videos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands

“Candace was spectacular. She took great care of our cat, Blanchette and sent us photos every day. We were very happy with her care and we will use Candace again in the future.”
