About: Animals have been a part of my life for over 14 years, and honestly, I love them more than most people! I'm a lifelong pet lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, reptiles (even snakes and iguanas), and more. I currently have two sweet Shelties and one friendly cat, so your pet will have some calm, furry friends to hang with (or their own space if preferred). I also have a 6-year-old son who adores animals and has grown up around them. We have a huge fenced-in backyard that's perfect for running, playing, and sunbathing. I'm home most of the time, so your pet will get tons of attention, cuddles, and love. Whether they need a calm environment or enjoy being social, I'll make sure they feel safe and happy. I'm comfortable giving medications, following detailed feeding routines, and working with shy or sensitive pets. I treat every animal like family. I offer: • Safe, loving in-home boarding • Doggy daycare • Flexible drop-off and pick-up times • A clean, cozy indoor environment • Plenty of outdoor space for play and potty breaks Your pet will be cared for with patience, love, and experience. I'd love to learn more about them - feel free to reach out with any questions! I’m home most of the day, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Your dog will have plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. I also have two gentle Shelties and a pet-loving child at home, so there’s always someone around for companionship, snuggles, or play. Whether your pet needs a quiet nap space or lots of active time in the yard, I’ll be right there to keep them safe, loved, and comfortable. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. In my home, animals are cared for with patience, love, and attention to their individual needs. I currently have two gentle Shelties and a friendly cat, and they help create a calm, animal-loving environment. Pets have access to a cozy indoor space where they can relax, nap, or play, and we have a large fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time. I follow each pet’s feeding schedule, potty routine, and any special instructions — including medications if needed. I offer crate-free stays unless requested, and I’m happy to accommodate pets who prefer more structure, quiet time, or social play. Whether your pet needs extra cuddles, room to run, or just a calm, safe place to stay, I’m here to give them the care they deserve.💘
“Sabrina and her family are fabulous. Both of my dogs enjoyed their stay. When I went to pick them up, both of my dogs were excited to see me, and the one went right back up to their porch! I'd say he loved it!”
About: We breed and train Chesapeake Bay Retrievers that are raised for Hunting, Hunt Tests, Obedience, and for conformation(shows). We have been involved with many breeds including Great Danes, Setters, Retrievers, and even Mutt Mixes. We start the day before sunrise to let the dogs out for a run and feed them. Around lunch time the pups are let out to play and exercise some more. We feed animals again around sunset or about 12 hours from their breakfast meal and let them exercise and play. One more outing before we go to bed where we always check in with our "puppy cams" before nodding off to sleep. Your dogs will be exercised multiple times a day on the farm on an adventure that changes based on the weather. In the summer we put a kiddie pool out for them to play in which we keep nice and clean. Some warm days we may take the dogs on a hike to the creek in the summer time where they can run around and have fun, other days it may be an outing around the fenced in areas. Any specific medical needs will be taken care of based on their needs and within our abilities. We will exercise them individually unless we are informed otherwise on their play pals.
About: Hi! My husband and I own a farm in Amelia, VA with horses, sheep, chickens, and our cats and dogs. I have two rescue dogs of my own and am a complete animal lover. I work in the agriculture sector with a flexible schedule and my husband works from home full time. My schedule allows me to be home with your pets as often as they need. I have been house sitting for over 15 years and absolutely love being able to love other people’s pets like my own! My house also has a fenced in yard, and is great if your pets want to come stay with me as well. I have experience with dogs, cats, most exotic pets, horses, and any barnyard animal you could think of. We are also very experienced in senior care, and often foster for our local shelter so are used to a lot of different behaviors and dog personalities. I am available for pet sitting and farm sitting. I am looking forward to hearing from you! I have a flexible work schedule and my office is less than a mile from my home, so I can stop in often. My husband is also very experienced in animal care and works from home full time. Our dogs spend most of their day snoozing with my husband while he works. They go on 3-4 walks per day and have a fenced yard to run around. Guest dogs are treated like our own! Drop in clients can expect their dogs to be loved on and cared for as desired for 30-60 minutes per drop in.
“Once again and amazing person and sitter! My dog, Honey, absolutely loved her time with Jasmine and loved hanging out with the other dogs! Definitely recommend and will rebook!”
About: I've had dogs since I can remember. My fiancé watched dogs in the past with rover and I would always help. Take the dogs to the park on my days off, play outside, and train them when needed. I am currently on veterans disability so I can focus my whole day to your furry friend. No worry about being stuck in all day. I have 5 acres of yard for them to play on. I have lots of space if needed, room for crates, room outside. Plenty of space so your furry friend won't feel trapped. My animals mind their own.
About: Lifelong dog and cat owner based out of Farmville. I currently have two six year old labs and two cats. All of my pets are highly socialized with other dogs. I have experience in sitting dogs ranging in size from miniature schnauzers to Great Pyrenees. My two labs are both male and littermates, so I also have lots of experience in keeping the peace! I have a large fenced in backyard with plenty of room to run and play. If you’d like any further information, please don’t hesitate to reach out! Dogs are out for an hour in the morning, an hour at lunch, and until dark after work (I will usually sit with them while they play or throw rope/ball). The cats make sure our household stays on a strict 7AM-7PM feeding schedule with little room for error before complaints are issued. As mentioned above, I have a large fenced in backyard where your dog will have plenty of space to move around. I have 2 6’x6’ kennels back there as well in case anyone needs a time out. I have crates of every size for guest dogs when I am not home and they stay in a separate area from my pets to further mitigate any issues that could come up. We have about 15 toys/ropes around the house/yard to choose from and never have any disputes. I am not responsible if your dog comes home to you fatter or more spoiled.
“I was in a bind. My friend couldn’t watch my dog for a planned trip very last minute. Gina and Christopher saved my vacation. It was so difficult to leave my doggie behind but Gina kept in touch consistently. My furbaby did great and was in awesome, loving hands!”
About: Ive taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember! I currently have a 5 & 6 year old golden retriever and lab. I have a huge fenced backyard and do have two littles in my house. I can do boarding, petcare, or drop in visits. UPDATE : I no longer live an apartment - it won’t let me upload on the app. I now live in Powhatan, VA with a backyard! I have a friendly 2 year old lab, a one year old golden, and two cats. All of my animals are very friendly. You can trust me to care for your pets simply because I’ll love them like they’re mine!

About: My love of dogs started about 5 years ago when I rescued my first dog. Since then, I have acquired a load of knowledge not only in how to care for them, but also how to train them. I can provide mental and physical stimulation for your furry friend and bring most of my own equipment - I can also use the tools your pet is most familiar with. I can assess your pet to determine what your pet may need for stimulation, make suggestions for daily care, and learn at least some of their body language. My dogs and I are always interacting whenever I'm home, but most of our intentional fun/training happens for about 2-3 hours each day outdoors. This includes both training and walking. I also help some of my friends train their dogs whenever our schedules allow. I believe your dog should ALWAYS be in training and you can make almost any situation a training opportunity. Your pets can be treated as my own and/or according to your specific instructions. Do you have multiple dogs that need to be separated? No problem. Can your dogs be together but need to be supervised so tension doesn't continue to build? I got you covered there too! Does your dog pull too much on walks, need to learn how to act in-doors? I can work with your dog on those things as well in addition to other things!
“Crystal was great! Highly recommend! Very quick to respond. She came for a meet and greet. She asked questions and made us feel comfortable and reassured that our dog would be well taken care of. She sent pictures and let us know how he did every visit. We will be using her services in the future.”
About: While I don't currently have a cat/kitten due to my dog's prey drive, I have had cats/kittens in the past with my family. I have helped care for them since I was young with our first cat, Princess. My brother has 4 cats, 3 Maine coon mix & a very sassy tabby, who I have helped care for and always love on when I'm at his house. I'm also a fan of playing with lasers.
About: I have been taking care of my own dogs since I was young and love to be around all animals! I used to nanny for a family with 5 kids and they had a wonderful dog that I always helped to care for! Feeding and taking him to the groomers and vet appointments…all things that I was lucky to get to help with! I also used to care for 2 cats (both needing to take medication) and a bull dog on a daily basis! I have a Jack Russell (that just passed away) myself that I had for about 10+ years and no kids do she was my only fur baby! I have recently in the past year gotten a brand new puppy named Sugar! She is a beagle/terrier/lab mix and 25 pounds of Adorableness! She is so sweet And absolutely my little girl, as she follows me everywhere and tries to be wherever I am, and always under foot!!! She’s a little skittish and still all puppy at eight months! So I am no stranger to puppy needs at all! I also have Bella, who is a pit/beagle mix and she is a little over a year and a half old! She is 60 pounds of crazy but happy and smart and always at my husband side! What a love bug! But remember, with pets, there is no personal space! Lol I love pets of all kinds and will care for them as if they were my own! Snuggles are free!!! I am currently a part-time private nanny, to a bunch of different families who may need care for their little ones day a week, and my schedule is always changing from week to week! This is a little niche that I found that nobody was able to fill, and I wanted to dedicate my career to helping those families who only need four hours a day one day a week and that doesn’t necessarily need to be the same day. As my schedules always changing, my availability will always be changing so I will try to keep that up-to-date as I hope more of you reach out! I’m really looking forward to all the snuggles! I am always very mindful of the time for feedings and walks…any medication will be given correctly and timely…I will make sure your home is locked up after I leave from a walk and/or feeding! Please know that I will do my best to. Gain the trust of the animal! Cats too!
“Melissa loves animals and really relayed that love to both of my cats! She sent photos and updates each time she cared for them. I found this so refreshing and comforting knowing my babies were happy while I was away. I shall hire Melissa D. for all my time away from home. Thanks Melissa, you're the best!”
“What an absolutely amazing experience. My cat was care for, loved on, and I received so many wonderful pictures. I’m always nervous to leave her since she has separation anxiety but she was calm and happy when I got home like I was never gone! Will definitely be using them as my pet sitter from here on out!!”
“Raeann was great! She took great care of my two cats while I was away for a long weekend. Sent pics and updates, gave one of my boys his injectable medication each day, and gave them some extra loving on top of it too! Even vacuumed before I got home! It was wonderful peace of mind knowing they were well taken care of and would definitely book again!”

About: I walk an Jog everyday. I love dogs a puppies and cats! I also have 3 pet rabbits so if you have a rabbit I can take care of it as well. I have 4 dogs and 4 cats. 2 of my dogs are pure breed German shepherds and 1 is a Golden Shepherd so I’m not scared of big dogs!! I can do any drop in visit for cats or dogs or walks I’m a stay at home mom. My time is pretty free daily. I’m available for any drop in visit or daily walks. I also did Certified nursing my junior year of high school at a vocational school.

About: I have built my life around loving and caring for animals. I have been with my local SPCA for 11 years and have been president for 8 years. My family has rescued and loved many animals throughout our lives and I would like nothing more than to extend that love to your pets. I am available at all times as I have retired and most of my SPCA volunteer work is done from my home. If for whatever reason I am not going to be there I will make sure you will be informed prior to my absence and my husband is available in the rare instance I am not. I have a dog boarding facility that can house up to 17 dogs of all sizes. There is a large outdoor play area and nice cozy accommodations including indoor and outdoor runs. Dogs have access to one on one play (including private walks) as well as group play depending on your preference and dog temperament.
“Sabrina is very communicative about my baby and Jenny has a fantastic time at her house. I love seeing the pictures of Jenny and her son playing together as well as her little pup. She’s a godsend. I highly recommend Sabrina.”

“Absolutely phenomenal. I really think my pup became part of the home. Every morning I dropped him off, he took off running to see Christopher. For a pup with some separation anxiety to be EXCITED to leave me, you just know he was taken care of. Definitely recommend”
“Dana was wonderfully kind and welcoming to our Rocky. Dana’s dog Joby was a great playmate as we was greeted at the door by the two of them together when we returned. Dana had everything including a great personality. Thank you Dana! We will definitely be back if we are in the area again.”

About: If there’s a pet in the room, that’s probably where you’ll find me. I’ve always loved animals, they’re not just pets they’re family, full of personality, and such an important part of our lives. Every animal is different, and I enjoy getting to know their little quirks, routines, and what makes them happiest. Being trusted to care for someone’s pet is something I truly value, and I treat that responsibility with the same love and attention I’d want for my own. Animals are a big part of my everyday life. I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Whether that’s going for walks, playing, or just hanging out and keeping them company. I plan my days so I can give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I stick closely to the owner’s instructions, respect their space, and focus on keeping their pets comfortable and happy.

“Sophia was wonderful. I was in town for a week for work and needed someone to walk my dog during the days. She met us at the hotel the evening that we checked in to give my pup a chance to get used to her. She came each day, was very responsive, took great care of the dog, and sent plenty of updates about each walk.”
About: I have experience caring for pets of all kinds, making sure they’re fed, exercised, and comfortable. I’m reliable, attentive, and focused on keeping every pet safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently in college, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I’m available most days from morning through the evening and can adjust to fit your needs. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for every pet. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keep a close eye on behavior, and make sure they feel comfortable and secure. In clients’ homes, I respect their space, keep things tidy, and provide regular updates with photos so you always feel at ease.
About: I’ve taken care of pets for friends, family and of course, my own. I love them with all of my heart, I will give them the love they deserve and the care they need!! I wouldn’t mind working around anyones schedule and their desires. I would give your animals as much attention as they need. Call and I’ll be there! I can take them out on a walk, feed them, clean any messes they make, or any specific and special requests or requirements they need.
About: I've had dogs since I can remember. My fiancé watched dogs in the past with rover and I would always help. Take the dogs to the park on my days off, play outside, and train them when needed. I am currently on veterans disability so I can focus my whole day to your furry friend. No worry about being stuck in all day. I have 5 acres of yard for them to play on. I have lots of space if needed, room for crates, room outside. Plenty of space so your furry friend won't feel trapped. My animals mind their own.
About: Growing up at a dairy farm, I was always surrounded by all kinds of animals. Horses, cows, dogs, etc. I had a love for them all. But it wasn’t until I had my first dog on my own inside the house that I totally understand just how much I really love dogs. I work every Friday, Saturday and Sunday. All nights. So Monday through Friday I have lots of spare time. From 7 AM Monday until 7 AM on Friday. I do not have a fenced in backyard. So keeping them on the leash is my number one priority. From getting out of the house and into the car. Because I do a lot of hiking with Bella. I also have a good size first aid kit.
About: Mom and daughter pet care!! We provide personalized, attentive care tailored to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s calming companionship for anxious pets, playtime for energetic puppies, or gentle care for seniors, we ensure every pet feels safe and loved. Our experience with medication administration, basic training, and maintaining routines sets us apart. We treat every pet as if they were our own, giving you peace of mind while you're away. When I’m away at UNC Chapel Hill, my mom runs the business so our clients experience the same reliable, loving care. My mom is a retired teacher who adores animals and has been hands-on with many of our bookings. We always communicate clearly about who will be caring for your pet — and we treat every pet like family. This reassures clients nothing changes except availability improves. As a college pre-med student with a passion for pets, I balance my studies with caring for animals, ensuring they receive the attention and care they deserve. My medical background gives me an extra edge when it comes to understanding health needs, administering medications, and ensuring pets stay happy and healthy. I prioritize each pet’s well-being while managing my busy academic schedule, offering owners peace of mind that their pets are in capable, loving hands. When caring for pets in our or client's home, we ensure a safe and comfortable environment tailored to each pet's specific needs. If they stay in our home, we create a cozy space with plenty of playtime, walks, and attention. We maintain routines, whether it's feeding schedules, medications, or nap times, to minimize stress. For in-home visits, we focus on maintaining the pet’s usual environment and routine, providing personalized care such as feeding, play, and cuddles, while also ensuring their space is clean and secure. Our approach is always flexible, offering a combination of love, safety, and reliability.
About: Growing up my family always had at least one or more pets of various breeds so I have 20+ years of experience around animals. I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, lizards, rabbits, goats, and hedgehogs. Personally, my husband & I have 2 dogs currently, 9 & 10 years old, one having epilepsy & is dependent on medication. I have helped raise/care for/train puppies, kittens, baby rabbits, & baby goats. The only pet I'm not comfortable with is snakes, my little sister has one but I only look at it from 3ft away in its enclosure, haha. I work part time Tu/W/Th 8A - 5P, I do not mind caring for pets those days, however I will be gone all day. Otherwise, I'm available for your pets needs! My personal routine with my pets: My husband helps me care for our pets daily but his schedule is a bit different than mine, so our dogs are let out at least within 4-6 hours those days. Otherwise, we let them out every 2-4 depending on their needs (which they have been trained to lets us know if they need to go sooner). Our medical dog is on a 12 hr medication schedule. I'd prefer to care in my clients home due to one of my dogs having a reactive past, it was quite a transition when we inherited our other dog. If you have a specific routine, I'm ready to follow it to the T! I'm comfortable walking dogs on leash, hanging out/playing with them in a fenced yard, or just chilling inside. As mentioned, I have experience with medically dependent pets. I have an escape artist, so I'm always vigilant of their proximity to me and prepared to run/chase in the event something happens. I can stay at the home with the pets or I can visit throughout the day!
About: I’ve taken care of family dogs my whole life and I have over a 2 years experience in a dog kennel so I am very familiar with any breeds/issues you could think of. I have experience in basic care, feeding, bath/nails. Currently I’m working with animals full-time so luckily I have a pretty open schedule for any fun ! I also have a pup of my own if yours is ever looking for a play date. For each individual dog I will meet their own personal needs because every dog is different. I really just conform to the dog’s personality and what would make the best experience for them.
About: What sets me apart from all sitters is my deep depth for all animals. As a child, I have always developed a love for animals. My love and compassion for animals spilled over into the education field working with students with special needs. Presently, I have four rescue cats, two classroom guinea pigs, and four dogs, one of which is a rescue. I volunteer with my country's animal shelter, and I have fostered and saved many animals. My love for critters is endless. I am a teacher, so teachers do not work in the summer. However, I do work teaching summer school and a camp in June. I can work evenings and remain overnight. I have the entire month of July off. My children are grown, so my schedule is flexible. I can provide references. I live in a secluded area, so when I am home, they have free range. My dogs are leash trained. During the day when I am home, they remain in a crate. I live six minutes from work, so they arent in their crates all day. My oldest daughter lives with me, so when I am away, they are taken care of.

“Emma was punctual was super friendly and patient with Jax who decided that he did not want to walk lol! She was also flexible and accommodating to make the best of the visit. I will definitely book services again.”
About: I have had a variety of animals my whole life! I absolutely love being around animals and spending time with them. I have taken care of dogs of all ages, all the way from newborn to seniors! I am available on weekdays only. I do work a breakfast shift (5am-11am) Wednesday to Saturday. However, I am available the rest of the day! I will have plenty of time to tend to your animals and take care of their needs. I have a very large unfenced yard that would be great for leashed activities like walking and going potty. I also have a fenced area that’s perfect for some unleashed outdoor time. I would keep any pets inside most of the time to ensure safety while I am with them. I do have a crate that I could keep your pet in while I am at work (if your baby is crate trained). All animals are allowed to roam the house and sleep in the bed if that’s allowed at home!
“Ken took care of our dog for 2.5 days and appreciate his personalized and professional service. His also communicates very well about our dog which gave us peace of mind during our vacation.”
About: I have raised many different types of dogs for 15+ years. For the last 5 years, I have housed many different animals in need. I have trained puppies, as well as nervous, and abused dogs. I make sure my home is a very welcome environment for animals of all kinds. Like my husband likes to say, I want a petting zoo in life. I currently work part-time in a pawn shop and full time mom to an adorable little toddler. We love being able to be around and care for animals as much as we can. I go on holidays maybe once or twice a year so I’m always around willing to help train or even just be a companion to your furry friend while you’re away I have an open yard with plenty of space to run around. I also have crates within the house just in case they need to be crated too. I have 3 adult dogs that roam free and are very friendly, as well as 3 puppies, and a 2 cats inside my house as well too. But it’s very rare my cats will come out during the day if I’m housing a dog inside.

“Sabrina and her family are fabulous. Both of my dogs enjoyed their stay. When I went to pick them up, both of my dogs were excited to see me, and the one went right back up to their porch! I'd say he loved it!”
About: We breed and train Chesapeake Bay Retrievers that are raised for Hunting, Hunt Tests, Obedience, and for conformation(shows). We have been involved with many breeds including Great Danes, Setters, Retrievers, and even Mutt Mixes. We start the day before sunrise to let the dogs out for a run and feed them. Around lunch time the pups are let out to play and exercise some more. We feed animals again around sunset or about 12 hours from their breakfast meal and let them exercise and play. One more outing before we go to bed where we always check in with our "puppy cams" before nodding off to sleep. Your dogs will be exercised multiple times a day on the farm on an adventure that changes based on the weather. In the summer we put a kiddie pool out for them to play in which we keep nice and clean. Some warm days we may take the dogs on a hike to the creek in the summer time where they can run around and have fun, other days it may be an outing around the fenced in areas. Any specific medical needs will be taken care of based on their needs and within our abilities. We will exercise them individually unless we are informed otherwise on their play pals.
About: Hi! My husband and I own a farm in Amelia, VA with horses, sheep, chickens, and our cats and dogs. I have two rescue dogs of my own and am a complete animal lover. I work in the agriculture sector with a flexible schedule and my husband works from home full time. My schedule allows me to be home with your pets as often as they need. I have been house sitting for over 15 years and absolutely love being able to love other people’s pets like my own! My house also has a fenced in yard, and is great if your pets want to come stay with me as well. I have experience with dogs, cats, most exotic pets, horses, and any barnyard animal you could think of. We are also very experienced in senior care, and often foster for our local shelter so are used to a lot of different behaviors and dog personalities. I am available for pet sitting and farm sitting. I am looking forward to hearing from you! I have a flexible work schedule and my office is less than a mile from my home, so I can stop in often. My husband is also very experienced in animal care and works from home full time. Our dogs spend most of their day snoozing with my husband while he works. They go on 3-4 walks per day and have a fenced yard to run around. Guest dogs are treated like our own! Drop in clients can expect their dogs to be loved on and cared for as desired for 30-60 minutes per drop in.
“Once again and amazing person and sitter! My dog, Honey, absolutely loved her time with Jasmine and loved hanging out with the other dogs! Definitely recommend and will rebook!”
About: I've had dogs since I can remember. My fiancé watched dogs in the past with rover and I would always help. Take the dogs to the park on my days off, play outside, and train them when needed. I am currently on veterans disability so I can focus my whole day to your furry friend. No worry about being stuck in all day. I have 5 acres of yard for them to play on. I have lots of space if needed, room for crates, room outside. Plenty of space so your furry friend won't feel trapped. My animals mind their own.
About: Lifelong dog and cat owner based out of Farmville. I currently have two six year old labs and two cats. All of my pets are highly socialized with other dogs. I have experience in sitting dogs ranging in size from miniature schnauzers to Great Pyrenees. My two labs are both male and littermates, so I also have lots of experience in keeping the peace! I have a large fenced in backyard with plenty of room to run and play. If you’d like any further information, please don’t hesitate to reach out! Dogs are out for an hour in the morning, an hour at lunch, and until dark after work (I will usually sit with them while they play or throw rope/ball). The cats make sure our household stays on a strict 7AM-7PM feeding schedule with little room for error before complaints are issued. As mentioned above, I have a large fenced in backyard where your dog will have plenty of space to move around. I have 2 6’x6’ kennels back there as well in case anyone needs a time out. I have crates of every size for guest dogs when I am not home and they stay in a separate area from my pets to further mitigate any issues that could come up. We have about 15 toys/ropes around the house/yard to choose from and never have any disputes. I am not responsible if your dog comes home to you fatter or more spoiled.
“I was in a bind. My friend couldn’t watch my dog for a planned trip very last minute. Gina and Christopher saved my vacation. It was so difficult to leave my doggie behind but Gina kept in touch consistently. My furbaby did great and was in awesome, loving hands!”
