Cat Sitting Varina

“This was our first time working with Taylor and we’ll definitely be working with her again in the future! She was respectful of our cats (who aren’t friendly), communicative, and timely. We were very pleased with our experience!!!”

“Jynette helped us out last minute this week by walking our dog, Kirby. It didn’t take long for him to warm up to her! She was timely and so friendly during our meet and great. Highly recommend.”

About: I offer personalized, one-on-one care tailored to your dog’s unique needs, personality, and routine. With a focus on reliability and attentiveness, I make your dog’s comfort and daily schedule a priority. I strive to be a calm, loving presence your dog can trust, helping them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. As a full-time teacher, my weekdays follow a consistent and predictable schedule. I am available for afternoon visits after school, evening care, as well as overnight stays when needed. On weekends, holidays, and school breaks, I have more flexibility and can provide extended care, additional visits, or longer stays. This structure allows me to offer reliable, attentive pet care while maintaining clear communication and consistency for your pet. I care for pets with a focus on comfort, routine, and individual needs, whether in my home or in my client’s home. I follow each pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication, and I take time to learn their preferences and personality. In a client’s home, I respect their space while providing attentive, one-on-one care and keeping pets in a familiar environment. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and calm interactions, and I communicate regularly with updates so owners can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I have personal experience taking care of (walking, bathing, feeding, enrichment, training) all animals and love to do it. Professionally, I’ve worked at doggy daycares, other dog-walking and pet-sitting apps, and volunteered to assist with puppy births. My experience is mostly with dogs; however, I have taken care of cats and more! I work a full-time job, but my hours are flexible which means I have days I am in-office or at home and I do not work weekends. It is very easy for me to leave work to provide pet care and return later that day or make-up hours later in the week. I am very gentle with animals and the safety of pets and those around them comes first - always. I plan to keep the pet comfortable and enriched. It is very easy to follow a schedule and routine for medications, bathroom breaks, bedtimes, and playtime. I pay close attention to details and take the time to learn pet behaviors to ensure they get the best care.

About: Hi! I’m Makenna, an experienced pet care professional with a background in both dog grooming and pet resort care. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities, providing walks, feeding, medication, enrichment, and plenty of love and attention. My grooming experience has also given me a strong understanding of canine behavior and handling. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away! I’m currently a college student, but I complete most of my coursework from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule. When school starts I will be sure to mark my availability. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. With professional experience in both pet care and dog grooming, I’m confident caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I also have experience administering medications and following specific care instructions to ensure every pet receives the attention they need. I’ll stick to your pet’s routine, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Tyeir took great care of my dog, she even remembered something I'd forgotten in my instructions. Very communicative and attentive to my dog's needs, highly recommend.”

About: I work full time during the day, so I’m available for visits on weekday evenings after 6 PM and have much more flexibility on weekends. Taking care of my own cat, Marcel, is already a big part of my daily life, so checking in on, feeding, playing with, and caring for other pets feels like an extension of what I already do. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to make sure pets get the attention, care, and companionship they need while their owners are away. I’ve always loved cats and understand that every cat is different. My own cat, Marcel, has anxiety, so I know how important it is to be patient and let cats get comfortable at their own pace. I pay attention to their routines, body language, and what makes them feel safe and happy. Whether a cat wants lots of playtime and attention or prefers their space, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. I make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and plenty of love and care while their family is away. My goal is to make sure your cat feels comfortable, cared for, and as stress free as possible until you get home.

About: I’ve always loved animals and grown up around so many dogs and cats. I enjoy providing pets with great care and treating them like my own. I have experience with animals of all ages and I’ll take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for! I’m currently in graduate school and have class until 11:50! I’m free before/after and free during the weekend as well. Overall, my schedule is very flexible. When caring for pets in their own home, I aim to keep them as comfortable as possible and maintaining their normal routine. I follow their feeding, walking, and playtime routines, while giving them plenty of affection.

“Kira has the best pet services in all of Richmond! She is so caring responsible, and the person that you want to care for your pet. She showed my cat so much care and my cat loved her. She has so much experience with all types of pets even exotic ones! She is a very hard-working girl and her passion for animals really shows. You’ll want to book with her ASAP to care for your pet!”

About: I've been pet sitting since I was a little kid and grew up with dogs and cats, and since I work from home full-time, I have a flexible schedule. I love getting outside for walks and tend to walk 10k steps daily, so if you have an active dog, I’m your girl! I don’t currently have pets of my own, so I love getting to spend quality time with yours! My ultimate goal is for you to feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home from 9am - 5pm, so I’ll be very available during the week. I have set evening plans on Wednesdays and Thursdays, but I have no standing commitments all other days of the week. I will follow whatever protocol you have for your pets. Whether that’s a specific routine, individual needs, and/or keeping you up to date with pics / messages. I want you to feel like your furry friends are in good hands!

About: I’ve been a cat mama since our family cat chose me as his favorite nap spot the day I came home from the hospital! I raised my next bestie from the day she was born until she crossed the rainbow bridge, and I’ve loved my Fiona for nearly 14 years. I have plenty of experience with cats of all ages, including administering medication, accommodating quirky needs, and navigating sassy attitudes! I also grew up with a family dog and helped care for him while living at home and during college breaks. That included feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I bring patience and attention to each pet’s personality and routine, and I’m happy to learn all the little details that help yours feel comfortable and loved. I currently work freelance and have a very flexible schedule so my days are built around what bookings I have in a given week. Let me know what your needs are and we can work something out 🙂 Each visit comes will include a food, water and liter refresh plus treats, playtime and plenty of cuddles. I have plenty of experience with cats of all temperaments and will adjust care according to your instruction.

“Bianca was thoughtful, dependable, and flexible. I felt very confident leaving my cat in her hands, and would definitely rebook in the future!”

About: I have taken care of dogs ranging from 10 pounds to 160 pounds my entire life. I have owned chihuahua dachshund mix, akitas, huskies, and German shepherds; so I understand big breeds as well as smaller ones. I have helped family members and neighbors with their dogs growing up with house sitting and dog walking. I know how important furbabies are to families, and treat each and every one as I would my own. I currently work full time with every other Monday off. I go to work about 7 am and get home about 430 pm. I do have volleyball leagues on Monday Wednesday and Friday nights that I am gone for 2 hours between 6-11pm as it varies based on game time. I love to hike and be outside so taking the dogs for walks a non issue. I treat all furbabies as if they were my own. I adjust my schedule accordingly to accommodate the animals as best as I can. I have given insulin shots and medication to animals and am comfortable with it.

About: I provide my services exclusively to cat owners. While I find dogs delightful, I have not had any of my own and therefore I'm not comfortable pet-sitting dogs. I have plenty of flexibility at the moment! That being said, I'm not available during the following times for most of September and October: - Mon & Wed: 6pm - 9:30pm - Sat: 9am - 2pm I'm respectful of my client's home and pets. I always double check that all doors and windows are locked before leaving, a habit I picked up from having my own pets. I'm also keen on learning pets' personalities and play styles to ensure their comfort. For example, a skittish cat would hide from me, but may still enjoy my presence from a distance. These are just a few details that I would ask the owner before engaging in pet-sitting.

About: I love animals, and have been taking care of dogs/cats since I was 12. I’m was a long term foster mom and have a ton of experience with volunteering for animals. I love walks/runs and giving animals enrichment time. I’d love to take great care of your fur babies. I’m a full time college student but only have 3 in person classes Monday-Thursday, from 9-12pm. Other than that I’m very free and available. My homework is easily completed anywhere and I like to leave free time in my days for exercise. I’m very neat and respectful of others home, making sure to keep yards/litter boxes clean and make sure that a space looks cleaner than I found it. I also don’t mind doing additional chores to be sure you and your fur baby are happy and comfortable.

“Ellie is a sweetheart! She took incredible care of our two cats while we were out of town, and she sent in depth updates throughout our trip. Highly recommend!”

“Lauren was really great, especially given our cat is very skiddish/scared and runs under the sofa at the slightest noise. Thank you for being caring and compassionate. When we go out of town again, Lauren will definitely be our selection. We highly recommend her.”

Brandon N.

“Janini took excellent care of my cat and was very communicative and responsive. I would highly recommend her!”
