About: I have had at least one dog all of my life. Often times more than one. Currently living with just one Lab who would love a visitor/playmate. I foster emergency overnights on rescue transports. I have been a caregiver for dogs of all ages and kinds; puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with separation anxiety. I have grandcats I house sit for and have also taken care of chickens. I work from home with tons of flexibility. I have one adult child at home in graduate school, they have a health condition which keeps them home most days too, so your pet is never short of human companionship. I live in a great neighborhood for walks on a leash. I provide dog sitting in a one story home with a large, wooded fenced yard in central Richmond neighborhood. Great for dogs of all ages and abilities. I live with one Lab that's a large couch potato. He also likes his human to sit outside with him rather than be out there all by himself. So we spend lots of time outside together. Pets are permitted on furniture and the bed, whatever makes them feel at home. I do have a large dog crate that can be set up if needed, but only if requested as it will put your pet at ease. The most important factor is making sure your pet feels comfortable, keeping their routines and habits to lessen the stress of a new place.

About: I've been volunteering at the Richmond Animal League for over a year and have previous experience working at shelters and dog daycares. I've always loved caring for animals; I used to volunteer at the SPCA when I was younger and I have two dogs of my own that I enjoy taking on walks and playing fetch with in the backyard. I have a part-time job that I work 3-4 days a week (mostly evenings). Other than that, my schedule is pretty flexible! I'm available throughout the week, as well as weekends. I'm more interested in petsitting, but I can also do daily walks and drop-ins with enough notice! For petsitting, I'll be able to stay and take care of your pets for as long as you need me to be there. I can stay all day and even overnight if needed, or just check in periodically throughout the day! I'll carefully follow instructions given on feeding, walks/exercise, morning and bedtime routines, medications, and just overall entertainment. I'm great with dogs (and cats!) of all kinds of energy, whether they want to be active all day long, or just snuggled up on the couch!

Would definitely recommend Hannah to anyone needing a trusted pet sitter !!!”

About: Hi! My name is Doris, and I truly enjoy caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I understand that pets are family, so I treat every dog with the same patience, attention, and kindness I would give my own. I was the proud dog mom of a Miniature Pinscher named Penny, and I adored her like family. Caring for her was a meaningful part of my daily life. Every Sunday, I prepared her fresh meals—meal-prepping wet food to mix with her dry kibble to ensure a balanced and enjoyable diet. I built my routine around her needs, including walks before leaving home and as soon as I returned, along with consistent activity throughout the day to keep her happy and engaged. I personally trained her, and she was crate-trained, comfortably settling in at night. She knew a variety of commands, including roll over, paw, other paw, along with all basic obedience cues. During the time I wasn’t actively caring for Penny, I invested in learning more about dog behavior by reading books and educating myself on different breeds, temperaments, and training approaches. This allows me to adapt my care style to meet each dog’s unique needs. I’m also an aunt to a husky named Rocky and a terrier mix named Marty, so I’m familiar with varying energy levels and personalities. Whether your dog is high-energy, routine-driven, or more relaxed, I adjust my approach to ensure they feel comfortable and understood. I provide a safe, calm, and clean environment and only accept pets from one family at a time to ensure focused, attentive care. I am very mindful of each pet’s routine—whether that includes specific feeding schedules, multiple walks per day, medication, or limits on how long they can be left alone. I maintain a structured schedule and am typically available before and after work, as well as on weekends. With advance notice, I can accommodate more involved care needs. My goal is to provide consistency so your pet feels at ease and at home. I also believe communication is key, so I provide regular updates, photos, and videos to keep you connected and reassured while your pet is in my care. My goal is always to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable, cared for, and genuinely happy. 🐾 Pet care is something I intentionally plan around and prioritize in my daily routine. I tailor my care based on each dog’s specific needs—such as the minimum number of walks per day, how long they can be left alone, and whether they require medication at set times. I’m typically home in the evenings and fully available on weekends. With at least two weeks’ notice, I can also request time off for bookings that require more daytime attention. When I do step out, it’s usually for short periods (5 hours or less), and I return home for the remainder of the day aside from occasional errands. I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so I make it a point each day to incorporate walks, playtime, feeding, and quality one-on-one attention. My goal is always to ensure pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I also make it a standard practice to send regular updates, including photos and videos, so you can feel connected and at ease while your pet is in my care. In terms of availability, I maintain a structured schedule and am typically available before and after work, as well as on weekends. If your pet has specific timing needs, I’m happy to discuss and accommodate when possible. For bookings that require a higher level of care—such as frequent walks (e.g., every 2 hours) or detailed routines—I kindly ask for at least two weeks’ notice. A meet and greet 2–3 weeks prior to the scheduled stay is strongly preferred to ensure I can fully prepare and provide the best experience for your pet. My priority is always your pet’s safety, wellbeing, and making them feel as relaxed and at home as possible. 🐾 I provide a safe, calm, and clean environment for every pet in my care. To ensure the highest level of attention and safety, I only accept pets from one family at a time. This allows me to maintain a clean space and give your pup(s) my full focus, especially since managing interactions between unfamiliar dogs can require extra supervision and quick response in case of emergencies. When pets come from the same household, I’m able to rely on the dog parents’ insight into their behavior and routines, which helps me provide more personalized care from the start. I live in an apartment with a secure balcony, a dog park, and a safe, walkable neighborhood with night lighting for added visibility during walks. The building also has secured cameras at the entrance for an extra layer of safety. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I ensure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and following their usual routines for feeding, exercise, and rest.
“Sheri was incredible. Made plenty of time for our dog and made sure he was comfortable and received lots of care. Sent pics and updates throughout the day. Will 100% call her again if we need a sitter!”
“Laura took great care of my pup! She was communicative and shared helpful updates/photos. Her dog Maple is a wonderful playmate! Our dog looks forward to returning to Laura’s house again soon.”
“Ayme was great with our dog coconut. She made note of all of our dog’s needs and I felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her care. She had a nice time playing with Ayme’s dog and other dogs that were there. Definitely recommend Ayme and will use her services again.”
“Zadie enjoyed her day stay at Andreea's today. The shady back yard was a perfect exercise spot in this hot, muggy Richmond weather. Andreea let me know via message that Zadie wasn't so interested in her food, which she made up for when she returned home! Guess she was having too much fun interacting with Andreea's two pups to think about eating. Smooth booking, arrival and departure.”
“Loren has been absolutely amazing. She responded very quickly, we had a fantastic meet & greet, and I knew she'd take great care of Professor. He had a great time spending the day with Loren. I'd highly recommend her!”
“We are very appreciative of Amanda and her husband for taking great care of our boys! Amanda is very communicative, caring and flexible which has been critical for our dog care needs. Can’t wait for our pups’ next stay!”
“Vannessa is very reliable and sweet! My puppy loves her. She sends pics/vids throughout the day. Its a bonus that she lives 5mins from me. Grateful to have found her as I wasn’t expecting to get Ace so soon. So thank you very much for all you do, it is more than appreciated!”
“Ms. Paula felt just like home. Like I was leaving my baby with my parents. I was so comfortable and at ease during our visit. My child did not miss me at all and I knew she was in good hands. Haribo is an excellent helper lol. He is equally as sweet as Ms. Paula. I will definitely be using her again in the future.”
About: I have had my own dogs since my early 20’s, and I’d probably have about ten more if I could. Everyone in our family has dogs, ranging from tiny Yorkipoos to big ol’ lab mixes, and I love them all! I currently have one rescue pup, Russell, who is 19 different breeds! I am patient, I don’t get grossed out easily, and I will love your pup like it’s a member of the family. My husband and I are both teachers, so we are home full-time during the summer with our two teenage kids. During the school year we work, but I’m usually home by 3:30. Our 13-year old daughter is interested in pursuing a career working with animals, so she will be assisting in the care of your pet. We have a large fenced yard and a dog-friendly house. We even have a doggie door for pups to come and go outside to the back yard as they need or want to. We have one 5-year old dog who gets along great with other pups. Usually when we dog sit, we have the visiting pup have a home base in our daughter’s room where they can be fed separately, have peace and quiet, and enjoy the best air conditioning in the house! We are a dogs on furniture house, and she even loves to let the dogs we are sitting sleep in her bed with her if they want. Your dog should expect many pets and snuggles at our house! If we are coming to your house, we will follow whatever routines and rules you’ve established for your pet. But still expect lots of love for your pet!
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I have experience with raising and house training puppies, teaching basic commands and walking on leash without pulling. I have crate trained all of my dogs but has free range of the house. I believe in good manners with positive reinforcement training, structure and schedules. I love playing ball or with whatever the favorite toy is. I have experience in administering oral medications and working with dogs that have anxiety. I work from home full time so your fur baby would never be unattended. If for some reason I needed to leave I would communicate that with you I have a large fenced in back yard, your pet would never be left unattended while outside. Both gates are locked to prevent anyone from accidentally opening the gates.
About: I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s energetic walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, or sticking to a detailed care schedule, I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and in good hands. I’m currently working fully remote, and I choose my own hours, so I’m available anytime of day. I’m willing to work with you and your pet’s needs to ensure your furry friend remains on their consistent routines. I believe pets are happiest when they can stay in the comfort of their own home and stick to their normal routine. During each visit, I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of potty breaks or a clean litter box, exercise and playtime, and lots of love and attention. I also administer medications if needed, reinforce any routines you’ve established, and keep your home tidy by cleaning up after your pet. After every visit, I’ll send you updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind while you’re away.

Getting to know your pet’s unique personality as well as their favorite toys or games is the best part of the experience for me. Look forward to receiving photo and video updates of your babies while under my care. My method of sitting revolves around specific instructions from the owner regarding their pet’s routine, preferences, and any special requirements.

I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your dog! I work full time, so I am usually busy during the day. However, I am often free on evenings and weekends and love walks and drop in visits. I do not bring dogs to my own home, because I have older goldens at home. But I love to come spend time where your dog is comfy!

“Elizabeth was wonderful. She sent us daily pictures and updates on Lily. She’s easy to communicate with! She even came and picked up and dropped off our dog at our house that was 30 mins from hers to help us out since we were traveling with 2 kids. 5 stars!”
“Cassie was fantastic. Cedar is a 1 year old rescue, who has some quirks. This was his first time away from home. She helped him feel comfortable and WE did it! Her patience and kindness are much appreciated by both Cedar and myself!”
“Jennifer is awesome. We have a German short-haired pointer, and he is very high energy and is a handful. But Jennifer does so well with him and Kennon has grown close with her (and perhaps claimed her house as his). Going to keep using Jennifer. Whenever taking trips I have no worries that our pup is in good hands.”
“Ms. Cyndi was absolutely wonderful with my Rajah. He tends to be nervous in new places and with new people but he was immediately comfortable with her. She kept me updated and sent me tons of photos of him which made being away from him a lot easier. I now understand why she is always fully booked! I would definitely leave my pets with her again anytime!”
“Sheri is amazing, amazing and even more amazing! She took care of my little pal just like I would. I received daily pics and updates and I can't say enough great things about her care. Thanks again for everything!”
“Laura had my dog nova for a week.Great with keeping you updated on your pet.Nova had a blast will definitely use Laura again.My dog was sad to go home that’s how much fun she had”
“Laura and her family were great. She sent daily updates, responded quickly, and was able to work with our schedule. Brady looked happy and well cared for. Would definitely board with her again!”
“My pup had a great time with Jesse and his dogs! He got lots of exercise and was a happy boy when we picked him up. Jesse has very prompt and helpful communication. Will book again!”
“Doris was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my fur baby, and it was clear he adored her. She is kind, attentive, thorough, and very professional. She kept me updated throughout my time away, which gave me so much peace of mind. I will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Caitlin was a fantastic dog sitter! I contacted her somewhat last minute to watch my cavalier King Charles for the weekend and she was able to accommodate. I did a meet and greet and saw that she has a perfect place for dogs and a huge fenced-in backyard. Her and her husband are very attentive and I could tell they really care about the animals they watch. Very happy to have found her and will definitely be using her again. She even gave me a write-up report at the end with a little story of Berkeley's adventure!”
“Aaren and Jordon are practically family now. This is the second time they have watched my girl and they take the BEST care of her. They love on her, make sure she is getting fresh air, and even take her on outings. I almost hesitated to write this review because I don’t want yall to know how great they are and then start taking all to spots - just kidding! I can’t be selfish! Everyone deserves to feel the peace I feel when my pup stays with them ❤️.”
“Nathaniel was a phenomenal caregiver for my big boy, Brock! 🐾❤️ I had to book care for Brock very last minute, and Nathaniel was incredibly compassionate and accommodating to both Brock’s and my needs with such little notice. Brock had a wonderful time and was so graciously cared for. Nathaniel went above and beyond by sending me pictures and videos throughout Brock’s stay, which gave me peace of mind and reassured me that my boy was doing great. I’d also like to highlight Nathaniel’s flexibility and his personal schedule, which worked out perfectly for caring for Brock. 10 out of 10! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you so much, Nathaniel, for taking such great care of my boy! 🐶❤️”
“Elizabeth agreed to watch my dog last minute and was very accommodating and kind! She sent me a lot of pictures and updates and made it feel like I wasn’t even away from my pup! I definitely look forward to booking with her again.”
“I always know that my dog is safe, comfortable, and taken care of with Zach. Ardo loves hanging out with him while I’m at work, and when I went out of town for the first time, it eased my anxiety knowing he’d be somewhere he was loved and cared for. Zach did an amazing job of keeping me updated and checking in, and was very flexible when my flight home got delayed.”
About: I have had at least one dog all of my life. Often times more than one. Currently living with just one Lab who would love a visitor/playmate. I foster emergency overnights on rescue transports. I have been a caregiver for dogs of all ages and kinds; puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with separation anxiety. I have grandcats I house sit for and have also taken care of chickens. I work from home with tons of flexibility. I have one adult child at home in graduate school, they have a health condition which keeps them home most days too, so your pet is never short of human companionship. I live in a great neighborhood for walks on a leash. I provide dog sitting in a one story home with a large, wooded fenced yard in central Richmond neighborhood. Great for dogs of all ages and abilities. I live with one Lab that's a large couch potato. He also likes his human to sit outside with him rather than be out there all by himself. So we spend lots of time outside together. Pets are permitted on furniture and the bed, whatever makes them feel at home. I do have a large dog crate that can be set up if needed, but only if requested as it will put your pet at ease. The most important factor is making sure your pet feels comfortable, keeping their routines and habits to lessen the stress of a new place.
About: I’ve been a pet owner for 10 years, and frequently pet sit for friends and family in my home. I would love to provide your dog with a safe, snuggly space while their people are away. As a dog and cat owner, most of my days revolve around pet care already! While I work in an office during the week, I’m a quick drive from home and have flexibility to run home for potty breaks and WFH as needed. I love nothing more than a cuddly weekend on the couch with my dog Tater and he always loves a friend. I have a fenced in yard, a very dog friendly dog, as well as two dog-savvy cats. I have a crate that can be assembled if needed for your pet. I couldn’t get my Velcro dog off the couch or bed if I tried, so my home is a great space for dogs who like to be extra close to their people.
