About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs for even longer than 2 years but have also been working at a dog walking company for 2 years now and have experience with many breeds and ages I’m currently a full time student so I prefer taking care of pets for people on the weekends and during times of the year when classes are out. Whatever you need me to do for your pet I can do just communicate that to me, really anything from medication to playing around I can do.

“Emma did a fantastic job taking care of our dog for the extended duration of our trip. Frequent communication and pictures helped us relax knowing Gus was in good hands. We came home and the house was spotless, which was a relief after a 22 hour travel day. Thanks a bunch Emma!”

Cameron G.

“Sarah was loving and patient with our elderly dog who simply can't handle thunderstorms. Unfortunately, both nights we were gone, storms appeared. She had to adjust sleeping arrangements since our dog could not settle. Sarah was very communicative throughout the entire booking and for that I am extremely appreciative. Thank you, Sarah!”

Elke M.

“Kali is my go-to dog sitter. She always does great with my little Morty Mouse whether its boarding or in-home sitting. She is reliable, communicative, and a true animal lover. Morty knows her by name and always feel safe and loved when we go out of town. Hire Kali and your pets will be loved just like youre at home”

Jared G.

“Emily did an incredible job taking care of our dog Pepper! She was happy to assist us with a last minute house sitting request when the family members who were originally going to watch our dog had to cancel for a personal matter. Even prior to being formally booked, Emily was quick to respond and receptive to the specific needs of our dog. We were able to set up a meet-and-greet between Emily and Pepper a few days before the house sitting, and it was clear that Emily was the right choice - our dog can be hesitant around new people, but she quickly warmed up her new friend. On the day of our departure, Emily arrived early enough for us to hand over our house keys safely and within 5 minutes of us being out the door we had our first update that Pepper was happily cuddling with Emily on our couch. On the following days, Emily provided regular picture & text updates about how our dog was doing and it was clear the two of them were getting along great. We couldn't be happier - thank you!”

Cam B.

“Catherine is just amazing! I can't say enough. She is so kind and caring with Bear! We are so comfortable leaving town knowing Bear is being cared for by Cat. She sends the best pics and updates every day. And the house is spotless as well! Truly Cat is a gem in RVA!! Thank you Cat!!”

“From now on Thane will be the only Rover that I ask to stay with Kipper. She was attentive, communicative, fully engaged, and addressed all of my concerns, needs, and questions. And Kipper loved her.”
