“Megan was amazing I recently boarded my rescue Prince for the first time, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Megan took such amazing care of Prince during his two-night stay. She went above and beyond—sending me some of the best photos and videos I’ve ever had of him, including clips of him playing and socializing with larger dogs (which was a first for him!). It meant so much to see him having that kind of fun and confidence. Megan also kept me updated with daily “doggy report cards” and personalized notes, which were such a thoughtful touch. When I picked him up, it was clear he had an incredible time—he was almost sad to leave! He even made a new best friend with her dog, Kava. I’m so grateful for the care and attention Megan gave, and I will absolutely be booking with her again. Truly a 5-star experience from start to finish!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and experience I bring to every pet I care for. I have over 12 years of pet-care experience and am a pet parent myself to three Chihuahuas, including a senior dog. Because of this, I understand the extra patience, attention, and care that senior pets can need. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, and I’m happy to accommodate each pet’s individual routine and personality. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet, relaxed environment, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I stay home full-time. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m able to work around each pet’s normal routine, including meals, potty breaks, walks, medications, and plenty of love and cuddles. 🐾❤️ Because I’m home most of the day, your pet can have someone nearby rather than being left alone for long periods. I truly enjoy having animals around and love making them feel comfortable, safe, and at home while their families are away. I care for every pet based on their individual needs and the routine their family has established. In my home, pets are treated like family and receive plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, walks, meals, and lots of love. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I’m happy to provide walks, feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, and basic medication care when needed. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, schedule, and specific needs before their family leaves. My goal is always for your pet to feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️

“Lisa is absolutely amazing!!! As a military family it isn’t always easy to plan trips overseas and Lisa was completely understanding and flexible with our booking dates. We had to change plans and she was completely accommodating! Our dog Nahla was in great hands with Lisa. We received several updates and pictures everyday and she was quick to respond to every message. We highly recommend her and plan on having our dog stay with her again! Thank you again Lisa for taking such great care of our Nahla! ♥️ ♥️ You are definitely worth the 45 minute commute!”

“I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Armonee. My dogs first time with a boarder and she could not have made things easier for him and me. Her communication is top tier with regular texts, photos and concerns. She is caring, gentle and tailors her approach to fit the animals needs, like she did with my special needs senior dog. She treats pets like they are her own and it is obvious from the moment you meet her. I trusted her completely and will be rebooking with her in the future. Highly, highly recommend if you are looking for a safe and loving place for your pet. My dog came home happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for.”

About: About Me 🐱❤️ I have over 5 years of experience caring for cats, and I absolutely love them! While I don’t personally own a cat, I’ve had plenty of experience caring for them and getting to know all of their unique personalities. I understand that cats can be independent and may need a little time to warm up, so I’m happy to meet them where they’re comfortable. Whether your kitty loves attention and cuddles or prefers to do their own thing, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, care, playtime, fresh food and water, and a clean litter box. Your cat’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I’ll treat them with the same care and love I would want for my own pets. 🐾💕

“This was our first time booking with anyone, and it was just a drop in visit for a few hours while we were on a day trip, but it was just perfect. Kelsey let me know when he had arrived and sent me lots of pics (which I loved) and kept me updated on how it was going. We had good communication back and forth and it was a great peace of mind for me to know the dogs were all good. They had a great break with Kelsey and lots of time to be outside if they wanted, or to cuddle with Kelsey as one of them did a great deal, and just overall a nice social break in their day.”

About: I’ve been trusted with homes and pets since 2008, when house sitting first came into my life organically through friends and people I knew who traveled. They needed someone dependable to stay in their homes, care for their pets, and keep an eye on things while they were away. Long before I knew professional house sitting was a thing, I was already doing it. My hands on pet care experience became even more personal when I became the primary caregiver for Angel, my senior Shih Tzu. I managed her complete day to day care, including feeding, walks, bathing, grooming appointments, veterinary visits, medication administration, companionship, and the changing needs that come with caring for an older dog. Today, I bring that same patience and attentiveness to the pets entrusted to me through professional house sitting. I have experience caring for senior dogs, administering medication, maintaining established routines, providing companionship, and adapting my care to each pet’s individual personality and needs. But what truly distinguishes me is everything else I bring through the front door. I’m a U.S. Air Force disabled veteran and retired IT professional with 26 years of experience. My career included systems engineering, cybersecurity, incident response, and positions requiring a Top Secret security clearance. I’m also a former real estate professional and longtime homeowner with firsthand experience managing renovations, repairs, contractors, maintenance, and the unexpected situations that come with caring for a property. That experience matters when you’re trusting someone with your home and pets. If something doesn’t look right, I notice. If detailed instructions need to be followed, I follow them. If something unexpected happens, I know how to assess the situation, communicate clearly, and determine when immediate attention is needed. I understand privacy, security, accountability, and what it means to be trusted with someone else’s property. I don’t simply stay in your home and feed your pets. I tend to what you’ve entrusted to me, your pets, your home, their routines, and the everyday details that allow you to leave with confidence. Because you’re not simply trusting someone to feed the dog. You’re trusting someone with your home and a member of your family. You roam. I tend. 🏡🐾🌍 My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide attentive house and pet sitting based on each client’s needs. I work to maintain your pet’s normal feeding, walking, medication, playtime, and bedtime routines while you’re away. Because I stay in your home, I can provide consistent companionship and care while also keeping an eye on your home and everyday details. I provide attentive, individualized care based on each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, medication when needed, and plenty of attention. I follow the pet parent’s instructions closely and prioritize maintaining a safe, comfortable, and calm environment throughout their stay.

About: I have taken care of a variety of different pets with different conditions since I was a kid. I know how to administer oral medications daily and have knowledge of mobility issues as well. I have a lot of knowledge of birds as well due to me having parakeets and a conure. I would love to be considered for help of almost any animal you have! Just ask me questions and I will answer. Thank you :) I always have mondays off, but my schedule for the week is posted on that day. Due to this i need at least a weeks worth of notice for anything if i need to communicate scheduling. Thank you Learning the needs/likes of the animal to interact better and make sure they are comfortable while their trusted companion's are away. If there is a special way your pet needs to do anything, then I am more than happy to learn.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and experience I bring to every pet I care for. I have over 12 years of pet-care experience and am a pet parent myself to three Chihuahuas, including a senior dog. Because of this, I understand the extra patience, attention, and care that senior pets can need. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, and I’m happy to accommodate each pet’s individual routine and personality. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet, relaxed environment, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I stay home full-time. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m able to work around each pet’s normal routine, including meals, potty breaks, walks, medications, and plenty of love and cuddles. 🐾❤️ Because I’m home most of the day, your pet can have someone nearby rather than being left alone for long periods. I truly enjoy having animals around and love making them feel comfortable, safe, and at home while their families are away. I care for every pet based on their individual needs and the routine their family has established. In my home, pets are treated like family and receive plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, walks, meals, and lots of love. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I’m happy to provide walks, feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, and basic medication care when needed. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, schedule, and specific needs before their family leaves. My goal is always for your pet to feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️

“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.”

About: Your dog will get lots of love and attention from me! I’m available for check-ins and walks with your dog in Kemah/Clear Lake Shores. We will have fun taking walks, playing outside, or cuddling! My family has shared our homes and our lives with Jack Russells, Labs, and beagles since I was a little kid. For the last 5 years, I've been a dog mom to a Chocolate Lab. Penny is a very energetic, fun girl! I know how dogs become part of your family, and I'll treat your dog as such! I’ve been a Rover pet sitter for ten years, in Virginia, Montana, and now Texas. I have experience taking care of pets as well as livestock, and administering medications. I'd be happy to answer any additional questions you may have! I typically assist my clients with pet care and walks in the morning (around 7 a.m.) noon and evenings (5-8 p.m.) on weekdays. My weekends are more flexible. When I visit your home, I will check in with you upon arrival, with a photo and text message. I will also document any services I provide (feeding, walks, etc.) I will follow instructions provided for feeding, watering, potty breaks, walks, and treats.

About: I’ve taken care of my dog and my aunt’s dog since I was nine. I’m twenty now and both of my fur babies are still kicking, barking, and happy. I’ve always loved animals, even helping to rescue some when I was little such as these two baby ducks and other little birdies and frogs too. In school, my teacher had a pet chameleon and turtle and I always was excited to help feed them. I actually started majoring in Biology at first in college to be a veterinarian or zoologist. I have a different path now to help children but I still have a passion for pets and other beautiful creatures of this Earth. I will take care of your fur babies just like I did mine and love them just as much. I am a college student as mentioned before but I have all online classes this upcoming Fall semester and I live on campus but can be at home when needed for boarding. I live in Suffolk, Virginia and do my boarding and doggy daycare there. My location says Norfolk but that’s only for house sits and drop ins and walking. I go to Old Dominion University so I can take business there in nearby area that is within 60 minutes of walking distance as I do not have a car or drive and rely on family and my boyfriend and friends for transportation. I do rely on my mother, brother or friends for transportation but they are willing to help and be available as needed. Please give me a chance and you won’t regret it. :) I make sure the pets first get to know me, smell me, and recognize me to be comfortable with me. Then, I interact with them more by playing with them and giving them rubs and cuddles so they can feel more connected and comfortable. Then, definitely make sure they eat and drink the right food for their health and nourishment. Then, walk them so they can do their business and get exercise and always make sure they have a leash on. Next, make sure they are groomed and cleaned well and freshen up from the outdoors. Then spend more time with them until our fun is over and they are returned with their beloved owners. I will have a whole day well planned and you and your fur babies will appreciate it. :)

She took great care of both of our dogs, Orion and Luna. Orion can be anxious in new situations, so it was especially nice to see that he seemed comfortable and relaxed with her. Both dogs came home happy, which says a lot! We really appreciated her flexibility and the great care she gave them. We would definitely book with her again!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and experience I bring to every pet I care for. I have over 12 years of pet-care experience and am a pet parent myself to three Chihuahuas, including a senior dog. Because of this, I understand the extra patience, attention, and care that senior pets can need. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, and I’m happy to accommodate each pet’s individual routine and personality. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet, relaxed environment, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I stay home full-time. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m able to work around each pet’s normal routine, including meals, potty breaks, walks, medications, and plenty of love and cuddles. 🐾❤️ Because I’m home most of the day, your pet can have someone nearby rather than being left alone for long periods. I truly enjoy having animals around and love making them feel comfortable, safe, and at home while their families are away. I care for every pet based on their individual needs and the routine their family has established. In my home, pets are treated like family and receive plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, walks, meals, and lots of love. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I’m happy to provide walks, feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, and basic medication care when needed. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, schedule, and specific needs before their family leaves. My goal is always for your pet to feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️

Given that she has only been with me for a month and she is scared of people. Mia has been the only sitter i trust. And she is very respectful with my house as well. She has saved my walks with Cannoli. I book her very last minute too.😭 THANK YOU! Will book all the time❤️”

About: Hi! My name is Ashley, and I have been around animals my entire life. I have experience caring for small, medium, and large dogs with a variety of personalities and energy levels. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply having company, I am happy to provide the care and attention they need while you’re away. I am also comfortable around cats and understand that every pet has their own routine and preferences. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members, and I will treat your pets with the same care, patience, and affection that I would give my own.

I provide care throughout the day and evening and will return the following morning for continued care.

I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting during that time and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and needs. I don’t currently have a pet in my home, but I have spent my life around dogs and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I understand how important routines are for animals, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment while they are in my care.

About: My first two pets were 2 doggies at 9 months old. I had them for 17 years until they left for doggy heaven October 2024 and February 2025… I am not ready to fully commit again quite yet so decided babysitting and loving on others’ furbabies will help the healing. Work from home all week. Will be able to take care of them in home and overnight if needed! I will accomodate to all requests and needs. Will appreciate details such as age, allergies, health, likes and dislikes. Will treat your baby/babies like they are my own. Will walk them as I have a dog friendly neighborhood as well as a newly built dog park. The backyard is also fenced.

Very shortly thereafter became employed at both Societies = working 7 days a week with animals. I adopted my first 2 pets (torti cats named Cali & Ava) in the Fall of 2013. Adopted a 3rd torti cat in the Spring of 2014 (named Hallie B). I adopted a chihuahua in the Fall of 2016 (named Clara my grandmother’s name). With the exception of Hallie B they have all crossed the Rainbow Bridge. The 1st in December 2020 then June 2021 and most recently in May of 2025 :-( 🐾🐾🐾 They were adopted as Seniors. They were the best. After 4 years of Humane Society work I changed direction again in 2017 to a more professional aspect of Animal Care becoming employed at a Veterinary Hospital as a Kennel Attendant for over 7 years. I have performed a number of cat drop-ins around the Gloucester area for various residents affiliated with the Humane Society. One such assignment lasted for almost two months while the cat’s owners traveled to Florida for the winter. I currently work (outside of Animal Care) OVERNIGHT 40 hours WEDNESDAY night thru SUNDAY. morning. Those days I am usually available for Animal Care from 8am to 2pm. Thursday thru Saturday I am totally available. There is some flexibility with my overnight work and the possibility of a little accommodation for Animal Care. I also have to spare some time for my own cat’s care. See my reviews / testimonials on the WAG! platform for pets I have provided care for most recently. Quality. Compassionate. Care. is what I provide pets. I want them to have the creature comforts that make them feel all warm and comfy and content.

About: Ive been taking care of dogs all my life, i have experience administering oral medication, feeding pets on specific schedules, bathing pets, taking large and small dogs on walks, and I have experience finding vets and getting pets there quick in case of emergency! I have a very flexible schedule! The only days I am not free on are mondays and Wednesdays for school. I can help with daily tasks like walking or feeding the animal! I give pets constant attention and care! I've grown up with very clingy puppies, so I'm used to giving animals all my attention! I'm also used to following specific schedules for the animal! (i.e. food, walking, bathroom)

About: I have 13 years of pet care experience from owning 5 dogs. I also taken care of many dogs for friends over the years. I am constantly on the internet looking for different ways to keep dogs healthy and live a long wonderful life. I currently work part-time, which means my schedule is quite flexible. I can easily adjust my work hours to accommodate your fur baby’s needs. I’ll ensure that your furry friend is well-cared for throughout the day, including feeding, walking, playing, cuddling, and making sure they’re happy while you’re away. I will follow the instructions that are given to me very carefully because every dog is different. I do recommend having us meeting before you leave so I can bond with your fur baby with you there so they are comfortable with me. If you have a certain route you like to take your fur baby for walks or if you have a dog park where your dog can play with other dogs (if they are social) let me know! Otherwise I will walk your fur baby for a minimum of one hour and maybe even take them with me for small store runs in the area (with your permission ofc!).

About: I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs and cats for over 16 years, and I treat every pet like family. I’m experienced with pets of different ages, personalities, and needs, and I understand how important it is to provide them with patience, love, attention, and a safe environment. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply some companionship while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. 🐾❤️ I currently work part time running my own business and I choose when I want to work, so it gives me more time with our pets and children. I have a fenced yard, and we are looking at adding a play area for the dogs to enjoy their time outside. The fenced portion is about 1/2 of an acre.

About: Hi! My name is Fallon and I am here to give loving, patient, reliable care to your pets. I have been around animals my whole life. This includes dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and rabbits. I enjoy all of them. I have previously worked as a vet assistant . I am a frequent visitor to the Isle of Wight animal shelter, where i walk the dogs. I have also fostered both cats and dogs and found them their forever homes. I am patient, loving, reliable and have experience handling all types of breeds. Please contact me for your animal needs . Thank you! I’m a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule. I am available mostly in the mornings when my kids are in school and can do some afternoons Safety and trust with dogs come from understanding their behavior and creating a calm, respectful environment. When people interact gently, respect a dog’s space, and pay attention to signs of stress, dogs are more likely to feel secure and respond positively. Consistent routines, supervision—especially around children—and clear boundaries help build trust, reduce fear, and keep both people and dogs safe.

About: Dogs have become a true passion of mine. I provide more than feeding and walks; I focus on understanding each dog’s behavior, body language, and individual needs. I’ve worked extensively with puppies and adolescent dogs, helping build confidence, good manners, and positive social skills through structure, patience, and consistency. I carefully monitor eating habits, energy levels, and overall health while dogs are in my care, and I keep owners updated with photos and detailed communication. Whether your dog loves to play, explore, or simply relax, my goal is to provide a safe, calm environment where they can feel comfortable and secure. My schedule allows me to give dogs plenty of individual attention throughout the day. I plan my routine around exercise, structured play, rest periods, potty breaks, and enrichment rather than leaving dogs unattended for long stretches. I strive to maintain each dog’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Safety is always my highest priority. Every new dog is introduced gradually based on temperament and comfort level. I have experience using crates appropriately for rest, meals, and decompression when needed, and I carefully supervise all interactions between dogs. If your dog prefers quiet one-on-one attention, I’m happy to accommodate that as well. I believe every dog is an individual. I take time to observe behavior, communication, and comfort level so I can provide care that fits each dog’s personality rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.

“Megan was amazing I recently boarded my rescue Prince for the first time, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Megan took such amazing care of Prince during his two-night stay. She went above and beyond—sending me some of the best photos and videos I’ve ever had of him, including clips of him playing and socializing with larger dogs (which was a first for him!). It meant so much to see him having that kind of fun and confidence. Megan also kept me updated with daily “doggy report cards” and personalized notes, which were such a thoughtful touch. When I picked him up, it was clear he had an incredible time—he was almost sad to leave! He even made a new best friend with her dog, Kava. I’m so grateful for the care and attention Megan gave, and I will absolutely be booking with her again. Truly a 5-star experience from start to finish!”

“I highly recommend Tashaun as a sitter for your fur baby. He recently kept my dog while I was away for a short vacation and I was able to relax knowing that Roxxi was in great hands. He was very professional from start to finish and made sure he got to know her while asking me various questions to ensure her routine stayed the same and that he understood her personality. He sent me pictures and updates to let me know she was doing ok and provided a great break down of her stay when I got her back. I will definitely be contacting him first for my next sitter need. Great work, and thank you so much for all that you did for us.”

We had to change plans and she was completely accommodating! Our dog Nahla was in great hands with Lisa. We received several updates and pictures everyday and she was quick to respond to every message. We highly recommend her and plan on having our dog stay with her again! Thank you again Lisa for taking such great care of our Nahla! ♥️ ♥️ You are definitely worth the 45 minute commute!”

Her communication is top tier with regular texts, photos and concerns. She is caring, gentle and tailors her approach to fit the animals needs, like she did with my special needs senior dog. She treats pets like they are her own and it is obvious from the moment you meet her. I trusted her completely and will be rebooking with her in the future. Highly, highly recommend if you are looking for a safe and loving place for your pet. My dog came home happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for.”

Micheal playing out in the yard with him throwing the ball. The whole family gave Neeko lots of love as if he were their own. Once I picked Neeko up and got him home, he slept the rest of the day. He was completely worn out!! If he were a kid, I think he would be talking about his sleepover for days!!! Lol. I could not have found a more perfect family to love my baby. 🥰”
