“Ciara was terrific with Tank. She had him for almost a week and he was acting very comfortable just like he acts at home. He has never been around cats and small children but did great with both. Ciara knew I was concerned and updated me frequently. This was a longer business trip for us and we were so thankful to have found Ciara. We would highly recommend her! She gets 10 stars in my book!”
“Lyra and Scott were great with Millie! I booked this stay kind of late as I made last minute travel plans, and they were very accommodating to my flight schedule! They sent updates daily and included photos. I could tell Millie was having fun with their family. I know Millie will be very happy to go back there!”
“Great place, great family, and our dogs love this place. It’s like doggie summer camp!!! Always gives great daily updates and pictures which reassure us that our pups are enjoying their vacation as we enjoy ours!”
“This was the first time we have ever used a sitter for Dough. I was hesitant at first but Jay definitely helped cap my insecurities. The communication was top tier! The random pictures eased my mind. When we picked him up he didn't want to leave lol. He tried to go back to the door. Needless to say, we will be back! Thanks so much for hosting Dough! We appreciate you!”
“Gretchen and family took care of our dog Opie while we were visiting Williamsburg for 3 nights. We received updates of Opie's stay through pictures and text messages. Gretchen made sure to understand any of our concerns with Opie while she stayed away and was able to reassure us Opie was thriving and alleviate our worries. This allowed us to enjoy our vacation knowing Opie was in good hands. I highly recommend Gretchen.”
“Finally, we know Sushi is in good hands with Victoria when we travel! He falls right on line with the pack. She sends great updates and pictures, is in constant communication with you if necessary, and offers lots of flexibility around drop offs and pick up times. This was Sushi’s second 8+ day stay. There will be more. Top notch!”
“Our Dixie had a wonderful stay with Shania and her family. We were sent pictures and updates during Dixie’s stay. She was well taken care of and we will definitely be planning another stay with Shania.”
“Jared was wonderful caring for Bazooka! He sent me pictures everyday so I was able to see what they were up to. Bazooka looked like he was very comfortable throughout his visit; which says a lot about the environment he was in, as cats tend to be skittish in new places. I would absolutely recommend booking Jared.”
“I couldn't be happier with the care Maggie provided for my two dogs, Lil Man and Zulu. Lil Man can be a handful at times, but Maggie handled them with ease and professionalism. I received regular updates and photos while they were in her care, which put my mind at ease. When I picked them up, they were happy and well taken care of. I highly recommend Maggie for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you,”
“4/16-4/18 This was my first time booking a pet sitter. My Yorkie Orlando went to Omara & Issac instantly! Like they met before. I knew then Orlando felt safe. He was so excited great pics and updates on how he was doing. I will HIGHLY recommend and request future bookings. GREAT CARING PET LOVERS 😊😊”
“Mrs. Crystal has been a Godsend! After several stays with her, we can honestly say that finding someone you trust completely with your dog is priceless, and that’s exactly what we found in her. She consistently provides exceptional care, thoughtful updates, and genuine love for Jaxon. He is always excited to see her and comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Knowing he is in such capable and caring hands gives us tremendous peace of mind whenever we’re away. We are incredibly grateful and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy sitter. ❤️”
“Billy had a wonderful time at Lauryn’s! I came home to find a very happy and well looked after dog! Lauryn was great throughout my time away and sent regular updates and pictures of Billy, and I could see he was being well looked after. She also prepared some food for him which I had forgotten to drop off, which was a very nice bonus. I would absolutely recommend Lauryn!”
“Dickson and Maria took wonderful care of our 16 year old beagle mix. We received daily updates with pictures/videos. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that our dog was getting plenty of time and attention, and excellent care. It’s difficult to leave a senior dog, but Dickson and Maria did wonderful, I had no worries at all!”

“If I could give Katy 100 stars, I would. She helped us out when our pet sitter bailed out on us at the last minute and I was at the airport just before boarding our flight arranging for a back up sitter. She also helped us with an unexpected errand of being on hand for the Uber courier when we needed help with that. Katy is great about communicating, which is very important to us, and she took very good care of our cats.”
“I highly recommend Kyleigh to anyone who needs a loving caring responsible and communicative care taker for their furry loved one. She is exceptional and if I ever need someone in the future I will be going to her first always!”
“Aneesa was so accommodating from the start! My pups were happy and so well taken care of. She provided lots of communication and pictures while she was here for her visits over our two days. This was also our first time using a dog sitter for our pups as we’ve never left them before. I felt very reassured and happy knowing that my dogs were happy and well loved. I would highly recommend Aneesa again and will utilize her in the future for our dogs.”
“Rhianna took great care of our very shy, skittish cat. He usually hides when new people enter the apartment. She was able to find him each day and even sent me pictures! I’m happy with the care she gave our cat, Toast!”
About: I have had cats my entire life and have extensive experience caring for them through all stages of life. Growing up with cats taught me the importance of understanding their individual personalities, routines, and needs. In my adult life, I have had two cats of my own. One of them I raised from a kitten and cared for throughout his entire life until he was 13 years old. This experience gave me firsthand knowledge of kitten care, adult cat care, and the special attention and support senior cats need as they age. I am comfortable with daily feeding routines, litter box maintenance, administering medications when needed, and providing companionship while respecting each cat's unique temperament. Having lived with and cared for cats my whole life, I understand how important it is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for them.
“went home for the holidays and ashton was amazing at coming in and feeding my cat! very responsive and reliable! i felt like my cat was in perfect hands while i was away <3”
“Victoria did a great job of taking care of my cat Neko while I was away for a week on vacation. I am a worry body when it comes to pets, but she sent pictures and kept me updated while I was away which eased my mind. I am thankful that someone of her caliber was around to look after the little guy. Would recommend to anyone in the area who needs a pet sitter!!”
“Reggie was very grateful to have Carissa come and visit. He warmed up to her quickly and loved having someone to give him pets. Carissa was communicative and managed to take some great pictures even while Reggie was demanding attention. She also brought in some packages that weren't expected to arrive while I was gone. Although it is not very often that we need a sitter, when we do, I will definitely try to rebook with Carissa.”
“Michele was an amazing asset. She did such a fabulous job taking care of my two cats, that they appeared to be disappointed it was me when I came home. Clearly, they were well taken care of in my absence.”
“Midori did a great job caring for our two cats. She followed our instructions and also gave them a lot of attention and play time. We will definitely book with her again! 🐈🐈”
“Abbi, was thorough and followed every instruction I asked her to do with my senior special needs pup. She was also extremely flexible, which we needed unexpectedly. She provided me an update and I knew my boy was being taken care of. With him being special needs I need someone to be attentive to every detail of his care, she was and she put my mind further at ease when she followed up with me without asking. We will use Abbi again.”

About: Hello! My name is Victoria. I am 28 years old and currently an ICU nurse, with 5 years of previous emergency room experience with a deep love for animals. I bring a calm, attentive, and safety-focused approach to pet care—especially for dogs who need a little extra support. I’m comfortable administering medications (including injections), caring for senior dogs, and monitoring pets with medical or anxiety needs. If your dog has special routines or health concerns, you can trust they’ll be in capable hands. I know how important it is to feel at ease when leaving your pet, so I provide frequent updates, photos, and clear communication. My goal is for you to feel completely confident and your dog to feel completely at home. I have 3 dogs, Chester, Maverick, and Thor who have never met another pup they didnt like. My two older boys, Chester and Maverick, are content to lay around all day long if that is what your dog enjoys. However, I also have Thor, who is a year and a half and he loves to play with other dogs, but is also ready to settle down for a good nap at any time. Whether your pup needs a relaxing stay, structured care, or extra patience, I’d love to help! ✔ Medical experience (nurse background) ✔ Comfortable with medications & special needs ✔ Calm, reliable, detail-oriented care ✔ Great with puppies and senior dogs ✔ Frequent updates so you never have to worry I currently work 3 12 hour shifts a week so I have plenty of availability to take care of your pets. I make my own schedule as well, so I plenty of flexibility. I have a fenced in yard and three sweet boy pups to play with your babies! I also like to meet the pups ahead of time to ensure that everyone gets along well. However, we do have two extra bedrooms that can be a safe place if you’re a pup just needs a little time away from the boys.

I am able to administer meds in any way shape or form and have done the off leash K9 training with two of my own dogs now, so am aware of some basic commands. My husband and I both work from home full time. We have a great back yard for your pet to run around in with our sweet boy Winston.

Thank you Maggie for taking good care of our boy. Mike and Kay Chase”

We are also a couch/furniture friendly family if that is something that is important to you. We do have small children but both are use to dogs and love them! We also do not have a pet of our right currently and so your dog would definitely be the center of our attention.
“⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 Highly recommended! Christene is absolutely wonderful! From the moment I met her, it was clear she’s professional, cordial, caring, and truly loves animals. Her experience really shows, and we could tell she treated our pets as if they were her own. We came to Williamsburg for a long weekend, and Christene gave us total peace of mind while watching our two dogs. She has an ample fenced-in yard our dogs absolutely loved—they ran and played joyfully with her own dog and even met her cat! Many of the videos she sent showed them happily exploring and having the time of their lives. Christene is trustworthy, flexible, and everything you’d want in a sitter. We couldn’t recommend her more highly—whether you’re visiting Williamsburg or live locally, Christene is the one to call if you want your pets in the very best hands!”

“Ellie G. is a great communicator with photo updates. The daycare day went well and Annie O was introduced to Ellie’s chickens and I’m sure she wanted to get a little closer but Ellie was great keeping Annie away from them. Annie also met Ellie’s dog and it appears that they both made a new friend. The day was a success.”

About: I've been caring for animals since I was 7 years old, and my love for pets has only grown over the years. As an adult, I worked at an animal shelter, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, needs, and backgrounds. I have also adopted and cared for three dogs of my own throughout every stage of their lives, from energetic puppies to senior dogs requiring extra patience, attention, and specialized care. This experience has given me a strong understanding of daily pet care, administering medications, recognizing changes in behavior, and providing the love and comfort pets need to feel safe and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your furry family members. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, companionship, or extra attention due to age or special needs, I am committed to providing reliable, compassionate care while you're away. I am currently in between jobs, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to provide your pets with the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. Whether your furry family member enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I can tailor my care to their individual needs and routine. As a lifelong pet owner with experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, I understand how important it is to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. From energetic puppies and playful kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care, I am committed to treating every animal as if they were my own. I have a fully fenced backyard with a 5-foot chain-link fence, providing a safe and secure space for your pet to play, explore, and enjoy the outdoors. I do not have neighbors directly adjacent to my yard, so there is minimal concern about pets being distracted or stressed by animals on the other side of the fence. I am a lifelong animal lover and currently share my home with a senior dog, whom I've raised since she was 8 weeks old, and a young cat who has been part of our family since he was 8 weeks old as well. Having cared for pets through every stage of life—from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets requiring extra attention—I understand that every animal has unique needs and routines. When your pet stays with me, they will be treated like a member of the family. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they can feel at home while you're away. I personally allow my pets on the furniture, but I fully respect each owner's preferences. If your pet has specific rules, routines, feeding schedules, medication needs, or restrictions, just let me know and I will be happy to follow them to ensure consistency and comfort during their stay. I believe communication is important, so I am also happy to provide updates, photos, and messages while your pet is in my care, giving you peace of mind knowing they are safe, happy, and well loved.
“I recently used Larrissa to walk my dogs , and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the first interaction, it was clear they were professional and passionate about pets. **Communication:** They were very responsive to my inquiries and took the time to understand my dog's specific needs and routines. Even assisted me with using this app for the first. **Reliability:** My dog walker was always on time and even provided updates and pictures during walks, which made me feel reassured. **Care for My Dog:** My puppy dog, Banks is still getting to everything, but Larrissa handled him wonderfully. He came back happy and tired after the walk. I am watching the dogs now just snoozing on the cameras. **Flexibility:** They offered flexible scheduling options, accommodating my last-minute changes wit. Overall, I highly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving care for their furry friend”
About: I've been a dog lover since I was eight years old, growing up with three Chihuahuas who sparked my passion for caring for animals. From a young age, I learned how to nurture and bond with dogs, and that love has only grown since then. I understand that every dog has its own personality and needs, and I'm committed to making sure every animal in my care feels safe and comfortable just like they would at home. Pet care fits into my daily routine it's something I genuinely look forward to. I've always wanted a way to give back by caring for others, without it conflicting with my other commitments. Dog sitting gives me exactly that. Whether it's a walk or a check-in, I’m dedicated! Your pet's safety is my top priority! I treat every animal in my care like my own, making sure they're always supervised and comfortable.
About: Hi, we’re Teona and Louie! We’re passionate about caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. With two gentle, well-socialized pups of our own, we know how important it is for dogs to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

Feel free to message us with any questions—we’d love to make sure both you and your pup feel at ease!

I currently work at a dog pet resort, so I have plenty of experiences with all sorts of dogs. I currently work part time, and am available pretty often! My scheduling is flexible, and I'm very transparent about my availabilities. I prefer to work daylight hours, but thats not a hard rule for me. I've been interacting with dogs of various temperments for a long time, so I'm practiced at providing a safe environment for your dogs. I'm very respectful of any safety rules you may have, and will never cut corners when it comes to the well-being of your pup.
About: Hi! I currently have a boxer/shiba Inu and a rescue puppy. My boxer/shiba went through an intensive training program where I was taught how to train a dog as well so I’m great with dogs. I love dogs (maybe more than people lol) and whenever there’s a dog around me my heart melts and I just want to play with them and take care of all the pups!! I am currently a teacher and work Monday-Friday. I walk and/ or feed the pets I’m worked with before work and then again after work as well as play time. In the weekends I’m home all day long as well as in the summer months. I care for all animals as if they were my own. All animal get attention, scheduled meals, and exercise. I also have gates to separate animals if necessary.
About: Hello! I have spent years providing love and care for my family pets as well as those of friends and neighbors. I know how special your pet is to you and I’m happy to help care for them however I can. Whether it’s checking in on a pet while you’re out of town or taking them for a stroll when you’re stuck at work, I’d love to step in any time you’re not available. My schedule is flexible and negotiable. I’m always careful and considerate when coming to your home and will be sure to follow any specific requests you have for your furry friend. I look forward to having the change to use my experience to care for your pet as though they’re my own!
About: I’ve taken care of Dogs, cats, ferrets, fish, chickens and reptiles!! I love caring for animals and would love to care for yours when needed!! I’m currently working from home and can work from anywhere. I can adjust my schedule for when I’m needed to accommodate you and your fur babies! I sit with your fur babies, love them and treat them as if they are my own! I love all breeds and type of animals I’ve been taking care of my babies and other peoples babies for over 20 years now. I love all sizes and breeds and will love yours too! I care for your babies just like they are my own. They will get snuggles when they want them and very well taken care of.

“Ciara was terrific with Tank. She had him for almost a week and he was acting very comfortable just like he acts at home. He has never been around cats and small children but did great with both. Ciara knew I was concerned and updated me frequently. This was a longer business trip for us and we were so thankful to have found Ciara. We would highly recommend her! She gets 10 stars in my book!”
“Lyra and Scott were great with Millie! I booked this stay kind of late as I made last minute travel plans, and they were very accommodating to my flight schedule! They sent updates daily and included photos. I could tell Millie was having fun with their family. I know Millie will be very happy to go back there!”
“Great place, great family, and our dogs love this place. It’s like doggie summer camp!!! Always gives great daily updates and pictures which reassure us that our pups are enjoying their vacation as we enjoy ours!”
“Finally, we know Sushi is in good hands with Victoria when we travel! He falls right on line with the pack. She sends great updates and pictures, is in constant communication with you if necessary, and offers lots of flexibility around drop offs and pick up times. This was Sushi’s second 8+ day stay. There will be more. Top notch!”
“Our Dixie had a wonderful stay with Shania and her family. We were sent pictures and updates during Dixie’s stay. She was well taken care of and we will definitely be planning another stay with Shania.”
“Jared was wonderful caring for Bazooka! He sent me pictures everyday so I was able to see what they were up to. Bazooka looked like he was very comfortable throughout his visit; which says a lot about the environment he was in, as cats tend to be skittish in new places. I would absolutely recommend booking Jared.”
“4/16-4/18 This was my first time booking a pet sitter. My Yorkie Orlando went to Omara & Issac instantly! Like they met before. I knew then Orlando felt safe. He was so excited great pics and updates on how he was doing. I will HIGHLY recommend and request future bookings. GREAT CARING PET LOVERS 😊😊”
“Mrs. Crystal has been a Godsend! After several stays with her, we can honestly say that finding someone you trust completely with your dog is priceless, and that’s exactly what we found in her. She consistently provides exceptional care, thoughtful updates, and genuine love for Jaxon. He is always excited to see her and comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Knowing he is in such capable and caring hands gives us tremendous peace of mind whenever we’re away. We are incredibly grateful and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy sitter. ❤️”
“Sandra and her family are great! Both of our dogs instantly felt comfortable with them and so did we. We found Sandra to be patient and kind to our boys and had no doubt they were in goods hands while we were away. She checked in with us often to let us know how they were doing. Great job Sandra!”
“Laneise made boarding with her so easy. She was so chill and flexible about drop off and pick up during the hectic holiday and that helped a lot! Our dogs loved being at her house and felt right at home. She has a lot of experience with animals and grooming so that is a huge plus! We are so thankful to have found her and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“This was Pitch's first stay with anyone he did not already know (he is almost 10!) and Tara was FANTASTIC! We are so thankful for how well she cared for him! We have already committed to her watching him again.”
“We Had the pleasure of using Britanny to watch over our sweet millie and it was a great experience. Britanny made sure she kept us in the loop and put all of our worries to rest with updates,pics, Etc. Being that it was our first time ever using a sitter, she made our stay away from millie extremely pleasant. Thank you again Brittany. I would highly recommend.”
“Awesome experience. Kristy and her kids are really friendly and clearly love animals. Drop off and pickup were easy. Communications leading up to and during Sandy's stay were excellent. Kristy sent periodic photos and updates while Sandy was with her family. Sandy even slept with one of her daughters. They truly take your pet in to be one of their own while with them!! Couldn't have been a better experience.”
“Ethel went above and beyond taking care of our little Frenchie, Tank. Anyone with a Frenchie knows they can be very clingy and believes the world revolves around them. Ethel made sure Tank had lots of hugs, massages and even let him sleep with her. She also sent daily pics and messages allowing us to enjoy our vacation. She truly is the best and we hope she will watch him every time we need her.”
