She was open to do a meet and greet before Teddys actual staycation and allowed us to see her home and meet her pets to make sure everyone gets along. Once we dropped Teddy off she sent pictures every day! Communicated very clearly and kept me informed of Teddys well being. She was accommodating when we had little curve balls thrown at us and we have absolutely no complaints at all. Your fur babies will be in good hands with Constance! We will be booking again for our next vacation.”

We're grateful for her exceptional service and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a warm and loving environment for their beloved pets.”

It was clear that she truly loves animals and treats them like family. I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My dog was happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time. Shanae went above and beyond to make sure all routines, feeding schedules, walks, and playtime were handled perfectly. When I returned home, it was obvious that my dog had been loved and cared for exceptionally well. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate dog sitter. I will absolutely be using her again in the future! Thanks again Shanae!”

“Audry did a great job looking after our three kitties. She took time to play with them and make friends. She sent us pictures each visit and provided updates on their daily habits. Will absolutely ask her to watch the cats again in the future.”
“Avery is great!! She had excellent communication and follow-through the entire week of drop-in visits at my house. I loved the personalized notes/report cards she left after each visit. Avery is very trustworthy in your home. Her warm and calm demeanor is perfect for the care of your animals. I knew that my pet was in good hands from the moment I met her… This peace-of-mind allowed me to enjoy my vacation and time with my family even more - knowing my cat’s personal care was being handled with the upmost professionalism back home… I can always tell the level of care a pet sitter gives while I am gone, based on my cat’s behavior and stress level when I return, and my cat couldn’t have been more relaxed - like I never left! I would highly recommend Avery to anyone looking for a quality pet sitter.”

About: You can finally relax knowing your pet will be safe, treated like family and given all the love. Hi there! I’m a stay-at-home mom located in the Hilton area of Newport News.

During the day however, he’s in school and I will be able to cover those who may not be small child friendly. I don’t mind hopping in the car to take your pup to the park or on a trail if they need more than just a quick lap around the block. I’m a big morning person who thrives on routine but, full disclosure, I avoid rush hour or late-night driving since my son is with me after 3:30 p.m. Monday–Friday.

My son and I enjoy walking whenever we can around our neighborhood in Hilton. I have a pet and baby proof clean home with a gentle loving child.

About: Hi! I’m Andrea, and I’ve been caring for dogs for over 15 years, starting when I was 11 years old. My experience started with my aunt’s two Shih Tzus, whom I helped care for from puppyhood until they passed away from old age. Since then, dogs have always been a big part of my life. I currently have three dogs back in my home country and a mini Labradoodle named Ember here in the US. Over the years, I’ve cared for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, including giving oral medications and supporting daily routines. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, bathing, brushing, and basic training. I enjoy teaching simple commands because it helps build trust and confidence between dogs and their environment. I treat every dog with patients, care, and respect as part of my own family. I have a flexible daily routine that allows me to be present and attentive to pets throughout the day. I am able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, and supervised playtime based on each dog’s needs. I am generally home for most of the day, and my schedule allows me to check on pets frequently and maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I provide care in a clean, calm, and pet-friendly apartment designed to help dogs feel safe and comfortable. I only accept one client or one family at a time to ensure a low-stress environment and close supervision. All pets are introduced slowly and carefully, and interactions with my dog Ember are always supervised. If needed, pets can be separated to ensure they feel comfortable and secure at all times. Because my home has carpeted flooring, I only accept dogs that are reliably house-trained. This helps maintain a clean and comfortable space for all pets in my care. The environment in structured to allow dogs to rest, relax, and adjust comfortably while still having a safe and supervised space throughout their stay.
“Daycare 7/20-22/2024: Christene’s online description did not mention that doggy day care would be AWESOME! Barkley eagerly exited our car to enter into Christene’s home to begin daycare. Every day Barkley returned happy and exhausted. After his last evening walk, Barkley immediately found his spot for the duration of the night and slept soundly until the next morning. He was one content Dood. It probably helped that Christene also had a Dood, Buster Moon. It must have been a daily Dood party! Highly recommend Christene, nice, friendly family, secure environment, pet owner. Would definitely rebook with Christene, again.”
“Shawna took excellent care of Daisy, my black lab! She sent lots of pictures and videos with updates on how Daisy was doing throughout the day. Shawna obviously has a lot of experience with animals as she was very professional and accommodating during the whole process. I highly recommend her services and I hope for Daisy to stay with her again soon!”
“Thank you so much for taking care of Lucy! what an awesome and trustworthy family to watch over her! I would highly recommend Lyra and Scott to anyone for their pets!”
“I needed a special day care/boarding home for my young, tri-pawed dog. The first visit was a day care trial where my dog and Lisa's family and dog were able to really interact to see if this was a good fit. Very professional, patient and works well with my dog. Now, I know where I will be boarding her when I travel. Thank you.”

My goal is to make sure your pet stays happy, comfortable, and well cared for while giving you peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Pet care fits very well into my daily and weekly schedule. I have a flexible routine that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. Since I already care for my own three cats and four dogs every day, providing quality care is a regular part of my life. I make it a priority to stick to each pet’s normal routine, whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, administering medication if needed, or simply spending quality time with them. I believe consistency is important, and I’m committed to making sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets, I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. In my client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box or yard cleanup, administering medications if instructed, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I also make sure the home stays clean and secure, and I’ll provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. Because every pet is unique, I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and any special needs before care begins. Whether they love to play, prefer quiet companionship, or need extra patience, I adapt my care to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away.
