“Great with my little one she is old and spoiled Chihuahua and she just keeps getting spoiled. Loves the yard to run in and play with the bigger dogs sometimes. But the best part is she is worn out by the time we get home. And they are so flexible with my crazy schedule.”
“Matt is amazing !! I moved to Richmond for work for 13 weeks and he has made my life easier taking care of my 1 year old puppy, Paige. His dog, Cooper is super super sweet. And Paige comes home exhausted from all the fun she has had ! Very grateful for Matt’s help”
“Ayme took Hugo for a doggie day care break today! We asked her at short notice, and she obliged.

About: Hi! 🐾 I’ve had dogs in my life for over 20 years, from my family dogs growing up to my own 13-year-old mini poodle, Soy. I’ve cared for dogs from 10 to 65 lbs with all kinds of personalities, energy levels and needs. Soy has been with me for most of my adult life, so I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I’ll care for yours the way I’d want someone to care for her, with lots of love, attention and respect for their usual routine. ❤️ I work from home, so I’m around throughout the day for company, walks, playtime and regular potty breaks. Our home is generally calm and relaxed, and Soy is friendly and enjoys having other animals around. 🏡 I also have a 3-year-old who absolutely loves animals and has already been my little helper with several dogs and cats. She’s gentle and comfortable around pets, so I’m only able to welcome animals who are comfortable and safe around young children. 🐶👧🏻 I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter for years and have experience with dogs of many sizes and temperaments. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime or curling up nearby while I work, I want them to feel loved and at home while you’re away. 🐾
“Emily did a wonderful job with my dog Majik. She took such thoughtful care of Majik, kept me updated, and made the whole experience easy and stress‑free. I really appreciate her care and attention. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Susan is amazing and made our anxiety-inducing first drop off at doggie day care way easier! Easy communication and planning and she and her dog made mine feel right at home. Loved how many updates and pictures she sent us too! Our dog seemed happy and tired afterwards.”
“Jordan was amazing! Kept us up to date with how the pup was doing and sent great photos. Put us at ease while we were working, especially because it was her first time in daycare.”
About: I've taken care of bunnies, cats, and dogs since I was little. I love animals and have always had a talent for connecting with them. I have cared for all ages and sizes of pets including administering medication and accommodating injuries. I have lots of time to spend with my furry animals given my flexible work schedule. I can provide midday walks at different times as my work allows for this flexibility. I am able to be present with the animals during the day. I treat all animals with love and care. I talk to them very warmly and gently, and I handle them with care and affection. They are my friends!
“Amy and Kris couldn't have been nicer people. I used their services to watch my beagle for the day while I visited Richmond. Their home was easy on and off the highway making this place ideal for visits. Bitsy spent the day with a few other nice dogs, received some delicious homemade doggy treats and got lots of love and snuggles. Thanks, we will be back again. :)”
About: Hi! I’m a dependable, caring dog lover who treats every pet as if they were my own. I understand that pets are family, and my goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or feeding, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Why Choose Me? ✔ Patient, attentive, and reliable ✔ Clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment ✔ Regular updates with photos and messages ✔ Genuinely love spending time with animals I work from home, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I also have a friendly dog of my own, so your pup will have a built-in buddy for play and socialization. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to stick closely to your dog’s routine, provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love. Your dog will never be left alone for long and will be treated like part of the family. I care for pets as if they were my own, with safety, trust, and comfort as my top priorities. In my home, pets stay in a clean, calm environment with a fully fenced yard for secure outdoor play and potty breaks. I also have crates available for dogs who are crate-trained or need a quiet, safe space to relax.
About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family always had dogs, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. I genuinely see animals as family, and I believe they deserve the same love, patience, and attention we give our children. Friends know they can trust me with their pets, and I’ve cared for my best friend’s pug whenever she travels, making sure he feels loved, comfortable, and keeps his routine. My goal is to provide every pet with a safe, nurturing environment where they can feel happy and at home until they’re reunited with their family. Your pup will enjoy a calm, clean, and cozy home where they’ll be treated like part of the family. I work around a flexible schedule, allowing plenty of time for potty breaks, walks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles, and rest throughout the day. My apartment community features a fenced dog park, and we’re surrounded by beautiful walking trails that are perfect for exercise and sniff adventures. Whether your dog loves to play or prefers a peaceful place to relax, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. As someone who naturally enjoys caring for both children and animals, creating a warm, loving environment comes easily to me. I’m patient, attentive, and believe every dog has their own unique personality and needs. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playing fetch, lounging on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care, plenty of affection, and regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Growing up my family always had a lot of pets. Birds, cats, dogs, snakes, reptiles, you name it! I am very well versed in how to take care of most pets. I myself have a dog and a reptile, both are 10 years old and very healthy! I am comfortable doing just about anything for your pets, so don’t be shy. I am a college student part time so my schedule is pretty flexible! I can provide services Monday - Friday from 9:00 am to 5:00pm. I will take care of your pets with the given instructions made by you. I will walk them, feed them, play with them, and keep a close eye on them at all times to ensure they don’t get into any trouble!
About: I have personal and professional experience with dogs, working at a doggy daycare for a short amount of time (dealing with 40 dogs at a time was not for me) and being a lifelong dog owner and caretaker. I currently have two shih-tzus who are the cutest! I have dealt with dogs that have needs ranging from: Young puppies, Anxiety, obesity, dietary restrictions, diabetes, intense general health issues, anger/aggression, bad leash manners etc… I do my best to meet your dog where they are at and provide the best care I can and reinforcing the behaviors you stride for when you’re away. I’ve been a dog sitter for 5 years, a doggy daycare (Dogtopia) employee for 6 months and a doggy lover forever! I am a VCU student with classes on only Tuesday and Thursday, I am fast, reliable, professional, I will always be on time and make sure your animals get the best quality care that they deserve. I always make sure to follow the rules of every client that graciously trusts me to be in their home. Roommates make personal boarding unsafe and unpredictable, However I have reliable transportation and will be there to take care of your pup (or kitty) right on time for walks, overnights, visits, and long term stays.
“Jeffrey provided me with the confident he would take care of Hailie well. Shared a brief description of his time with her and a picture as well. Communicated well and is very polite.”
“Emmalee has taken the time to get to know our dog and he has taken to her very quickly and he is a very sensitive soul so that speaks volumes! Really happy and relaxed knowing she is caring for him, would definitely recommend.”
“Nicole does such a great job with my baby. On days when it’s too hot she still makes sure he goes out and gets playtime and love. I absolutely love that she takes multiple pics to show what they’ve been up to. Pork Chop enjoys her visits so much”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a teenager, including puppies and senior dogs requiring medication. I'm well handled walking strong and reactive dogs, and can do grooming for long stays. I currently work part time (occasional Saturday nights) and am available to care for dogs throughout the day. I'm an early riser and love walking the neighborhood in the morning. I live in an apartment with a balcony, so boarded dogs will be walked at least twice a day on a leash in the neighborhood. I'm happy to play with extra energetic dogs. For home visits, I will be available to visit twice a day, or can stay with dogs in the home.
“I cannot recommend Sierra highly enough! My dog, Mickey, ran down the hall to meet her on her second visit. He’s never done that. She obviously had Mickey’s seal of approval immediately. Sierra is conscientious, very communicative, and extremely kind. She has my complete trust and respect, because she treats Mickey as if he were her own. To me that is the absolute best quality in a dog walker! Choosing Sierra as your dog walker is the absolute correct decision! Having Sierra walk your dog will keep you worry free and happy while your pup gets good exercise, has fun and is treated like family 😃”
“Lauren was an excellent dog walker! Our dog Mabel loved her and we felt at ease knowing she was getting some great exercise when we weren't able to be home. Lauren also wrote fun, detailed "report cards" that made us smile every time we got one! Would definitely work with her again.”
“Mary came through in a pinch when I needed a last minute dog walker! I appreciate her quick response to my request and even timed the walk perfectly around the rain so that my guy would go outside! Thank you!”
“Caitlin just started with Bailey this past week and she did such a great job with him . She made me feel so comfortable and I immediately could see how much she loved Bailey and he liked her . Professional reliable and great communication! I’m happy and plan to keep using her every week !”

“Aaren and Jordan are absolutely amazing, phenomenal pet sitters! From the moment I left Arya in their care, I knew she was in loving and patient hands. They treated her like family, and that meant everything to me while I was away. Their communication was top-tier—they kept me updated consistently with messages and check-ins, which gave me so much peace of mind. On top of that, they were incredibly flexible and accommodating, making the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Arya truly found her second home with them, and there’s no doubt they are now her permanent sitters. I appreciate them more than words can express and can’t thank them enough for the love and care they showed my big girl. 💕🐾”
