“Yogi enjoyed his stay. I like that there are options. Dogs can stay in the house. But if they are more comfortable outside, she has a deck with access to a fenced in grass area. Good communication. No problems.”
“Kalley was amazing!! I needed a new sitter as my previous sitter stopped doing in-home boarding, and Kalley was phenomenal. She was very attentive and kept me updated daily on how Marley was doing via text and pictures. I knew he was extremely comfortable in her home which really put me at ease. Thank you Kalley to you and your family for taking such good care of Marley!”
“Walter G. and his loving family ? were very Wonderful! Our Beagle dog “Wrangler” felt comfortable immediately at their home. Walter and his family was very understanding and caring towards him. Our dog can be very shy sometimes and yet he seemed to really warm up to the family very quickly. Inclusive, one of his little girl’s got so adorably attached, that it was so heart warming to see her shed a couple of tears ☺️ We truly highly recommend Walter G. and his family. He will most certainly be on our top list for boarding and care and we will most certainly be honored to have them take care of our boy again.”
“Yzabella and her family took AMAZING care of Louie. She was so responsive and sent many photos and videos. I knew he was in great, caring hands. We will absolutely be using her services again very soon 😊”
“Thank you so much for taking great care of Ahsoka. She was immediately comfortable with you and at your home. We really appreciate the pics you send while we are gone. We will definitely book again.”
“Top notch care taker. Alexsys cares about what she is doing and is confident with handling all types of dogs. The communication, photos and videos she provider were greatly appreciated. I highly recommend her and will be definitely booking again!”
“Heather is absolutely amazing! We’ve never left one of our dogs with anyone outside of family and it was so nice to see they had a blast and made themselves feel right at home. She is flexible, quick response time and has plenty of room for our dogs to run and play, also meeting some new friends with their dogs. We will keep our dogs going to Heather anytime we leave town and she is available.”
“Linda was wonderful with our sweet pup, Henry! Daily updates were very helpful and she went above and beyond to show him love. I would definitely have Linda take care of Henry again and would recommend highly!”
“Gabby was very responsive, caring, and flexible. She was engaged with the dogs during their stay and patient with our shy girl. She's also willing to take on this extra responsibilty during a busy holiday season. She is the best!”

“I had to leave on a business and Lisette was able to look after my cat Ogden. Communication was quick and simple, and Lisette was very accommodating . I have no problem recommending this sitter.”
“I can't say enough wonderful things. Katherine very appropriately vetted my dog to make sure he would be a good match with other dogs prior to agreeingto have our guys stay for a week. She sent me lots of pictures and updates throughout the week putting my mind at ease that everything was going well. The space is wonderful with lots of room and he came back home exhausted from playing with new friends. Our dog did not come home with any issues picked up from a new environment or new dogs. This was an absolutely wonderful experience and I have full trust in leaving our dog with Katherine.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience and genuine passion for animals of all sizes and personalities. I have cared for many dogs of various breeds & sizes throughout my life and currently have three dogs and two cats at home. Besides cats & dogs, I have also cared for rabbits, guinea pigs, parakeets, hamsters, chickens, goats, and sheep! For the past two years, I have also volunteered at the SPCA in Winchester, gaining hands-on experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and care needs. I am confident working with playful puppies, senior pets, and everyone in between. I am patient, outgoing, and truly love providing animals with the care and attention they deserve. I am a student at Virginia Tech, so I have availability here and there throughout the day! I am also available most evenings/nights for longer periods of time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort above all else. At my home, pets enjoy a fully fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor play, a walkable neighborhood for daily walks and fresh air, and a spacious deck that’s perfect for lounging and sunbathing. Inside, animals are treated like family in a clean, pet-friendly space with constant attention and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their routines and space, ensuring their pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for in their own environment.
“We left our dog with Jessica for the weekend. She took great care of her & updated us with pics & videos . We will be booking with her again & highly recommend her !”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I have owned and cared for dogs my entire life, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, personalities, and care needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I fostered a dog for five months, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to help a dog feel safe and comfortable in a new environment. I have also spent years pet sitting for family and friends while they were away, providing reliable care, daily walks, playtime, feeding, medication when needed, and plenty of love and attention. I understand that every dog is unique, and I strive to make each pet feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a calmer routine, I will treat them like they are my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have cared for dogs my entire life and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I am able to provide walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet's regular routine and will do my best to keep them comfortable and happy while you're away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being at all times. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special needs. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I provide a clean, safe, and loving environment where pets can feel secure. I also believe in regular communication and am happy to provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they're away.
“Pamela was such an awesome host. She took very good care of our baby. Our dog was bathed, her items were washed and she smelled so good when we picked her up. During our trip Pamela even sent photos to update us and kept the lines open for communication. We love Pamela and will definitely see her again.”
About: I’ve had two dogs over the past 10 years that I have assisted in taking care of at my home. My families second dog passed away recently and the house is now empty of pets. As a dog-loving individual I would love to be able to watch over others’ pets and provide the proper care for them. I’m currently in the process of working part time with the city of Winchester’s summer camp for kids. I would be working during the week days and off all weekends. I have a large yard in a subdivided neighborhood that is great for taking walks. My home currently doesn’t have any pets living there. There are plenty of dog beds and furniture that is acceptable for pets to relax and sleep on. It is a three story home with 2 sets of stairs in it.

About: I have been pet sitting for about 10 years, caring for pets for family, friends, and neighbors—and it’s truly one of my favorite things to do. I’m currently available for pet sitting Monday through Friday until 4:00 PM. During the summer, my schedule is more flexible, which allows me to accommodate additional visits and varying care needs. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, feeding, playtime, a walk, medication, companionship, or just a friendly drop-in visit, I’m happy to help. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care that fits your pet’s routine and gives you peace of mind while you’re away. I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment where pets can feel comfortable, secure, and cared for while you’re away. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and special care instructions.
“We were totally delighted with Jennifer's care of our two cats. She was communicative, responsible and available if I had a question or needed to reach her. We will definitely use her again when we need a pet sitter. She also watered my new outdoor plants which is so helpful during the spring season.”
“Katie was fantastic! She spent a lot of time with all 4 cats and even got our shy boy out of hiding - a first. I felt confident that they were getting as much love and care as possible while we were away. I highly recommend Katie.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Courtney! I accidentally booked the wrong weekend for our cat care, and as soon as I realized the mistake and contacted her, she immediately offered to head right over to take care of my kitty. That level of kindness, flexibility, and reliability meant so much to me, especially while traveling over a holiday weekend. She stayed for at least a full hour each visit, sent tons of photos and detailed updates every day, and clearly spent quality time making sure my cat was comfortable and cared for. The updates really helped me relax and enjoy my trip knowing my kitty was in such good hands. I truly appreciated her responsiveness, professionalism, and genuine care for animals. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and thoughtful sitter!”
“I highly recommend Darian to take care of your pets! I needed someone reliable, and on very short notice, to take care of my precious skittish cat for three weeks. Darian did a wonderful job tending to all my cat's needs, and she accomplished the amazing by quickly getting my suspicious, standoffish cat to allow her to pet her! Darian also went the extra mile of cleaning up the floor several times when my cat coughed up hairballs and had other tummy issues. Darian had not taken care of my pet before, but she stepped in like a pro and took care of her, and kept tabs on my house as well. As I said at first, I highly recommend Darian for your pet!”
“Sherry was amazing! We decided to go on a last minute trip and she met with us the night before we left. She was so nice and a joy to be around so we knew Charlie would love her! This was our first time leaving him but we were reassured by her personality. She did everything we wanted and more. We can't thank her enough and we highly recommend her! We will definitely use her services in the future!”
“Sonja was great! I felt very comfortable leaving Zoe with her and her pups. I can tell Zoe had a wonderful time playing with Sonja's dogs in her beautiful home and yard. I would have no hesitation leaving Zoe with her again!”
“Megan is the best! She always goes above and beyond to make sure our pets feel extra loved when we are out of town. We hope to continue to use Megan in the future.”
“Allyson is a gentle spirit and wonderful cat sitter. I call her the cat whisperer, as she gets our nervous Frida out from hiding under the bed and snuggling in her lap. We come home to happy kitties every time. We highly recommend Allyson.”

Not currently working outside of my home. Looking forward to helping others with their pets and making them feel comfortable being away from them Prefer to car for pets in your home. I have 2 dogs and the are pretty much just used to each other. Need to know what your dogs temperament is likes and dislikes
About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, small animals (like rabbits, guinea pigs, and hamsters), and even large animals. Whether it’s daily care, feeding routines, exercise, or just companionship, I’m comfortable and confident in providing attentive and loving care tailored to each animal’s needs. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets of all ages and temperaments—puppies and kittens, energetic adult pets, and seniors who need a little extra patience and support. I’ve also worked with animals that have special needs, such as those requiring medication, specific diets, or behavioral understanding. From walking dogs to mucking stalls, from playtime with curious cats to maintaining proper enclosures for small animals—I treat every animal with the same level of compassion, respect, and responsibility as if they were my own. As a part-time pet sitter, I’m available mornings and evenings during the week, and have open availability on weekends. This schedule allows me to provide dependable care around your pet’s routine—whether that’s early morning walks, breakfast and dinner feedings, or evening check-ins for some companionship and play. On weekends, I’m fully available for more extended visits, drop-ins, walks, or boarding if needed. I make it a priority to follow your pet’s regular routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for in your absence. Even with a part-time schedule, your pet will receive focused attention, affection, and reliable care every time I visit. At my home, your dog will have plenty of room to run! We live on 45+/- acres and my dog will be happy to run with yours and give them a tour of the farm! Whether your pet is in care at my home or yours, I will send regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing. I’ll reach out with any questions or concerns.
About: I currently have 4 cats whose ages range from 1 to 10 years old, so I have experience caring for cats in many different stages of life. Each of my cats has a completely different personality and different needs, which has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to make every cat feel comfortable in their own way. Some are playful and energetic, while others are more shy and relaxed, so I understand the importance of respecting boundaries, routines, and comfort levels. Growing up around animals and caring for multiple cats has made me very confident in feeding, playtime, litter box care, giving attention, and creating a calm, safe environment for pets.
“Lexi made 3 drop-in visits to check on our cats Ashes and Whiskers. She visited once before we left to see to all the arrangements and then reported on her visits during the drop-ins. Great communicator and pet care provider! Two thumbs up.”

About: I love dogs! I’ve taken care of neighbor’s and friend’s dogs and currently have one of my own. I have experience with puppies, older dogs, walking and training dogs on and off lead. I currently work only part-time, so I have a lot of free time on my hands. There are a few weekends or nights that I’ll be away, but we can book in advance. I have a private house with tons of green space and corn fields. We have no visible neighbors, so your dog will enjoy a bit of the peaceful country lifestyle. My dog goes outside off-leash, but I can keep yours on to keep them safe.
“Shaghayegh made Tucker feel right at home. He went into her house happy and excited. I received photos of their walk. I’m happy and I highly recommend Shaghayegh.”

About: I've always had a love for animals and love working with them! I've grown up with dogs and love to be around them. My mom used to breed labs and I would help her socialize and take care of the puppies to prepare them for their new homes! My family always had at least six dogs at a time that I would help take care of as well! I also used to work for a kennel for almost two years, I have worked for a doggie daycare as well for about 2 years! I am currently enrolled in an online vet tech course and plan to finish that in the next year or so. I currently work a full time job 8-430 but am available weekends and would love to watch your pets!
“Lisette is WONDERFUL and her family is also so nice. She was very friendly and lovable, super communicative, helpful, and also flexible. She took great care of my dog and sent photos throughout the day, and he was really happy and relaxed (and in no hurry to leave) when I came to pick him up so I know he loved being there! I definitely recommend her and will send my dog there again anytime she's available!”
“Emily treated Hank like a little prince. She provided pictures throughout Hank’s stay showing him being pampered. It was great to know Hank was having a fun stay. Thank you Emily”
“Gabby was exceptional taking care my dog, Luna! It was my first time leaving her with a sitter and using Rover and she made the experience so much easier. She loved on my pup and sent me updates with pictures and videos throughout her overnight stay. Gabby is professional, friendly, and caring towards the pup and their human. I needed some handholding and she was super kind. I’d recommend Gabby any time!”
“Jordan was amazing! I plan to book her again if available! I can tell my pup was excited & happy with his doggy daycare visits. Not only did she accept my last minute booking, but she was open and very negotiable with pick uo & drop off times. She frequently sent pics, walked my pup multiple time a day & had no doubts leaving my dog in her care. Would highly encourage anyone to consider booking her for pet services!”
“Haejin & Herscel were wondering caretakers! They were open to taking my dog for daycare a few days before and treated her so well. I liked that they only take a few dogs a day to reduce exposure and ensure they are all being watched. I loved the occasional photo and video updates, which her other daycare doesn't do it all. She came home very tired from playing all day, which was exactly what we wanted. I look forward to using them again!”
About: Dog care certified in Argentina, as an animal lover I want to pursue career caring for them. Since young, I used to spend a lot of time in dog walks and parks with them.

With some dog training experience and a lot of love for dogs, I look forward to taking care of your family member like one of our own.

If your furry family member just needs companionship and loving attention, I am happy to provide that kind of care, too. Photos of your dog will be shared with you throughout their visit. I love to send lots of pictures of my guests. My house is generally a cage-free environment, but will use your crates if that is what your pup is used to at home. I have a couple of gates to use as necessary to separate dogs during meals and to give them a large, safe play area in our home.
“Taking on a totally unknown dog from a cross-country road trip, IS a risk. We knew our senior dog Ginger would likely be stressed: 1st from the trip, and 2nd to be left with a stranger, in an unfamiliar environment. Linda really seems to love the dogs, she had 1-2 fosters there when we arrived (not sure, as I think I only saw 1). While I'm sure it was hard on both of them, we do sincerely appreciate her taking on our dog for a few hours, so that we could attend the wedding of an old family friend. If you read this Linda, I am interested in that food you had there for your fosters. Please shoot me a message, I may look at ordering it to try next time. Thanks again!”

About: I worked at a reputable kennel for a year in cat and dog walking, grooming, basic training, and health. I've also worked with many other pets throughout my life. I currently work mornings and I may have some small events certain days, but I am willing to work around it. Bookings at least three days in advance will be the only ones I accept unless stated otherwise. I cannot bring dogs or cats back to my home due to allergies of family members, but I can do anything outside my home or in yours. Whatever I can do to keep your pets happy is my pleasure.
About: Hi! I have 5 years of animal care experience, two years in the shelter setting and on my 3rd year in a veterinary care. I also volunteer with a canine rescue. I am currently working full time but am available before / after my work shifts and available for overnight care in your home or mine. Due to my full time work schedule I am best equipped to do over night care. I have a home with plenty of space inside and outside. I am available to stop by in the mornings / evening to feed and walk or let out and administer medications as needed. If your pet is on a set schedule for a specific medication please let me know ahead of time and I will be happy to check my work schedule to ensure if I would be a good fit! In my home I have a 50+ lbs spayed female pit bull and a 5lb female chihuahua. In a clients home I would like to be provided with any information regarding food aggression, possessiveness, schedule the dogs follow and any special accommodations needed to best suit the pet(s). I am very flexible and have worked with all kinds of dogs with different temperaments and needs. I do work full time so a typical day for me is waking up early, I take my dogs out, feed them, meditate if needed, one more potty break before leaving. They do go out mid day by a dog walker that comes in. And then after work they go outside, eat dinner, outside again and then hangout and play until bedtime where we do night treat and one more bathroom break. I have pets at home that are super dog friendly. They absolutely love any company. I volunteer with a rescue so they are very used to other dogs coming in and out. I have the ability to separate dogs if needed, crate dogs if needed (one of my girls get crated and one does not)
“Thanks Alyssa. Ever since my Wife, his Mommy, passed away in April, his eating and pooping has been off sometimes. We both miss her. When it's hot he will plop down in front of the fan because I turn it on low for him...lol Thanks for taking care of my boy.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have 4 cats and a 4-month-old puppy, so I understand the patience, attention, and love pets need every single day. Growing up surrounded by animals taught me how to care for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. From playful puppies to independent cats, I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, walks, playtime, cleanup, and giving pets lots of affection and attention. I treat every pet like family and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I currently work a flexible part-time job, which gives me plenty of time throughout the week to care for pets and give them the attention they deserve. Since I also have 4 cats and a 4-month-old puppy of my own, pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and I enjoy spending my free time with them. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic, shy, young, or older. In a client’s home, I always follow instructions carefully to keep pets on their normal routine and help them feel as stress-free and comfortable as possible while their owner is away.

About: My wife & I grew up with pets all kinds and recently we adopted a dog from a rescue and that spark has been reignited of what we've been missing. We have thought long and hard and prayed about doing this. We have a 11 year old son that loves to walk the animals and give them exercise and plenty of opportunities to do their business. My Wife home schools and I currently work part-time so someone will always be home to monitor your pet/pets. We have been told that recent pets we've sitted are in heaven when their in our home. We have one small pup she is 3.5 years old and seems to do well with other pets. We will love and care for your pets just as if they were our own.
About: Over the years I have worked with many different kinds of animals from house pets to farm animals to exotics. I have always had a passion for animals and grew up taking care of them. I have been working in the animal field since age 16 and currently work as an ER exotic veterinary technician student. I am employed full time, however my job allows me to bring pets into work with me should they need monitoring, time sensitive medications, etc. I am trained to handle both fearful and friendly pets as well as administering medications and monitoring overall health and behavior. If there are any special requirements or requests please let me know in advance so I can provide the best possible care for your pet.

We will keep our dogs going to Heather anytime we leave town and she is available.”

“I had to leave on a business and Lisette was able to look after my cat Ogden. Communication was quick and simple, and Lisette was very accommodating . I have no problem recommending this sitter.”
“I can't say enough wonderful things. Katherine very appropriately vetted my dog to make sure he would be a good match with other dogs prior to agreeingto have our guys stay for a week. She sent me lots of pictures and updates throughout the week putting my mind at ease that everything was going well. The space is wonderful with lots of room and he came back home exhausted from playing with new friends. Our dog did not come home with any issues picked up from a new environment or new dogs. This was an absolutely wonderful experience and I have full trust in leaving our dog with Katherine.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience and genuine passion for animals of all sizes and personalities. I have cared for many dogs of various breeds & sizes throughout my life and currently have three dogs and two cats at home. Besides cats & dogs, I have also cared for rabbits, guinea pigs, parakeets, hamsters, chickens, goats, and sheep! For the past two years, I have also volunteered at the SPCA in Winchester, gaining hands-on experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and care needs. I am confident working with playful puppies, senior pets, and everyone in between. I am patient, outgoing, and truly love providing animals with the care and attention they deserve. I am a student at Virginia Tech, so I have availability here and there throughout the day! I am also available most evenings/nights for longer periods of time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort above all else. At my home, pets enjoy a fully fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor play, a walkable neighborhood for daily walks and fresh air, and a spacious deck that’s perfect for lounging and sunbathing. Inside, animals are treated like family in a clean, pet-friendly space with constant attention and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their routines and space, ensuring their pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for in their own environment.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I have owned and cared for dogs my entire life, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, personalities, and care needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I fostered a dog for five months, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to help a dog feel safe and comfortable in a new environment. I have also spent years pet sitting for family and friends while they were away, providing reliable care, daily walks, playtime, feeding, medication when needed, and plenty of love and attention. I understand that every dog is unique, and I strive to make each pet feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a calmer routine, I will treat them like they are my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have cared for dogs my entire life and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I am able to provide walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet's regular routine and will do my best to keep them comfortable and happy while you're away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being at all times. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special needs. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I provide a clean, safe, and loving environment where pets can feel secure.

“Pamela was such an awesome host. She took very good care of our baby. Our dog was bathed, her items were washed and she smelled so good when we picked her up. During our trip Pamela even sent photos to update us and kept the lines open for communication. We love Pamela and will definitely see her again.”
About: I’ve had two dogs over the past 10 years that I have assisted in taking care of at my home. My families second dog passed away recently and the house is now empty of pets. As a dog-loving individual I would love to be able to watch over others’ pets and provide the proper care for them. I’m currently in the process of working part time with the city of Winchester’s summer camp for kids. I would be working during the week days and off all weekends. I have a large yard in a subdivided neighborhood that is great for taking walks. My home currently doesn’t have any pets living there. There are plenty of dog beds and furniture that is acceptable for pets to relax and sleep on. It is a three story home with 2 sets of stairs in it.
“Desirae was absolutely wonderful and treated our pup like family. Her and her family are super sweet and she would send us pictures and keep us updated on how our girl was doing. It was our first time leaving her with a sitter since we adopted her. It was hard leaving her for the weekend, but it helped knowing that she was on good hands. Thank you so much Desirae!”
“Lauren provided excellent care for Bryce. She regularly sent photos and videos of him throughout his stay with her. Her yard is large and fenced in so plenty of space for your pup to zoom around. High recommend her for your dog sitting needs!”
