About: **HUSBAND and WIFE DUO **local kennel technician I have experience with pets for 10+ day vacations, pets with medical needs (like diabetes and allergies), and my experience in size ranges from puppy to 150+ lbs. I use “fear-free” care for all animals in my care. I’m currently working full-time at a local general practice clinic. I have rover for a “when I have time” sort of schedule and that’s why I mostly do drop in only visits. I do not offer boarding at my home, but in past experiences i have had a full time job so I would stay in the pet’s home during all other hours and go there for lunch if possible. I try to fill the pet’s time while you are gone with lots of playing or exercise, and keep their normal routine as much as possible. As of lately, unless I have errands to run, I’ve been staying in the pet’s home with them almost constantly.
“Page did a fantastic job taking care of my pup. She showed a lot of care in the time she spent with her. Trustworthy and will continue to work with her”
About: Hi! I have been dog sitting for 13 years, I worked at the pet spa for 1, and am excited to watch/walk your babies! Don’t be afraid to reach out! Availability fluctuates.. view my calendar as i update it frequently! They will follow their normal routine: walks, lets outs, eating and play time.. even cuddles if that is what they're familiar with! Can watch your baby at your house as our rental doesn’t allow animals, but in your home, they will be taken care of in the exact same way they are used to.

About: Dog sitting is something I truly excel at—I’m attentive, responsible, and genuinely love spending time with dogs.

About: I managed a boarding kennel for 8 years. While there, I administered all types of medications including insulin. I would like the opportunity to love and care for your pet/s.

I am willing to go to the owner's home to care for their pets. I will feed, play, walk, administer medications, or most other things that are needed.

About: I’ve grown up with pets at home for the last 17 years. My extended family all have had dogs my entire life varying from Rottweilers, dachshunds, German shepherds and yorkies. I’ve walked, dog sat, bathed, taken care of for both short and extended periods of time for family and friends for about 10 years. I’ve recently moved to Virginia with some family and although not “technically” mine, currently with an extra 4 Maltese and 1 mastiff I set my own hours with my day job. Because of that, I set the same hours on a weekly basis to minimize any confusion. My parents currently have a dog who is very anxious and easily scared so from my personal experience, I’m great with making sure a dog feels more than comfortable with me. I allow them to sniff my hand and/or anything else including shoes, pants, shirt, whatever they need to feel comfortable. Trust with a dog is built over time and I will never force you for baby to go with me if they don’t feel safe.
About: With over 4 years of experience as a professional dog trainer and pet care provider, I bring a calm, confident, and caring energy to every dog I meet. Whether your pup needs overnight boarding, walks, or some extra playtime, I treat every dog like my own—with love, patience, and lots of belly rubs!

I also offer updates with photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Let’s give your pup a fun, safe, and loving stay. I can’t wait to meet your best friend! 🐶❤️ It is my full time job so the dogs get my attention throughout the day and evening if they board over night with me I like to include them in my everyday life as much as possible. When unsupervised I keep the dogs in a ruffland crate for safety of your dog and the other dogs I have at the time. I live right by the river and love to take the dogs there to play in the water and the beach! I also have a gps collar that I put on every dog when I take them outside of my house for safety.

Jessi B.
“Jessi would truly excel as a dog walker! His love for dogs shines through in everything he does, and he has a remarkable talent for connecting with them, regardless of their size or temperament. As a fellow pet sitter, I can’t express how comforting it is to have someone trustworthy like him to rely on. It means the world to me and my fur baby to know we have such a compassionate person to turn to!”
Angela D.
“Angela is awesome!! I live with my father and sister, and we had a great big farm dog, named Cookie. Life has caught up to the family, so we haven't had as much time to tend to the dog. When we got Angela to help take care of Cookie, she went above and beyond. Not only did she feed and walk her, but she gave her food and played with her as well. Angela is a very caring, playful, and loving person, and even more so when it comes to her love for animals! My family was trying to get rid of Cookie because we could no longer afford the expenses, sadly. When we told Angela, she took it upon herself to find Cookie a wonderful home among the community, and even took Cookie away for us. If me or my family ever gets animals again, Angela will surely be the first person we will reach out to!”

Dawn G.Star Sitter
“Dawn is an amazing, caring, loving person. When she cared for my pup Mocha, I could see in their initial reaction with each other during our meet and greet, just how amazing, patient, and a true animal lover she is. Dawn puts the pups first, and made Mocha feel right at home. She always provided pictures and updates on how Mocha was doing, this of course gave me peace of mind knowing Mocha was having a good time. When Mocha came home she was happy and tired, I would absolutely without question be using Dawn again for my Mocha, and have already recommended her to everyone I know :) Thank you again for taking such good care of Mocha and also for taking the extra time making sure Mocha would eat, which is no easy task I know! lol”

I would describe her as responsible and trustworthy, as well as patient and kind, all things any pet parent requires when looking for someone to look after their pet. My dog also loves her, too, and gets so excited when she sees Elizabeth walk in. Elizabeth is an ideal pet caregiver.”
