Kade did an amazing job with my dog Brenda and was very attentive to her needs. I felt good knowing she had such good care and Brenda was very happy and healthy upon my return. I would definitely use Kade again!

Kate was so great! She really went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable before leaving my baby to her. It shows how much she really cares about your dog. She had no problem handling my huge Great Dane and easing his worries while I was away. I would not hesitate to rebook her again!

About: I grew up feeding both my mastiff mix Lilly and cat Kitty and walking Lilly daily. In college, I took care of a husky-mix, walking and feeding him daily. I’m currently working part-time so my schedule is pretty flexible! I am available for walks and feedings and can come check on your pet any time. I have experience with crate-training and know and will always strive to respect your personal house rules. I understand each and every pet parent has their own special relationship with their pets and I want to honor that as best as I can.

I forgot to book my walks for the week and I work 12 hour shifts, so it is imperative that my tiny guy ( who refuses to go inside on puppy pads) be taken out. Bridgette saved the day, even with such short notice. My dog also loves her. I definitely recommend her to anyone.

About: I first began pet-sitting with dogs & cats around my neighborhood when I was 11, and since then I’ve met a wide array of pet personalities that I’ve learned to handle with the utmost care and respect. I’m a college student working part-time this summer, so I have plenty of time to spend taking care of furry friend(s)! My availability is open on the weekends, as well as Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Although I’m typically busy Tuesday and Thursday evenings, I can shift my schedule around to accommodate your pet’s needs. I have a sweet Calico named Mimi at home who I love to brush and feed daily, with special attention devoted to her diet and litter since she has a medical condition. For any pet, I’d be willing to devote as much care and energy as I would for my own because I try to provide all animals I encounter with the love and respect they deserve. I take my client’s boundaries around their homes and pets very seriously, and I do my best to follow the instructions provided to a tee.

About: I have had animals my entire life. I currently have 2 cats of my own; Binx and Luci. I have 10+ years of dog and cat sitting experience. I am an animal lover and want to take care of your pets so you won’t have to worry! My own cat has medical issues so I am comfortable giving oral medications to pets. I can also do house sitting things like watering plants, getting the mail, etc… I would love to care for your pets! **I am a teacher and have open availability in June and July but my schedule will change come August so I cannot do mid day drops in long term!** I am a teacher and have my summers and breaks off and would love to spend them taking care of your pets! I can also intermittently dog walk or pet sit during the school year. I am incredibly responsible and respectful. I am also a huge animal lover and know how to care for animals. I have a high standard for who takes care of my pets and I promise to deliver the same level of care I would expect for my own pets!

Chloe was a life saver! My fiancé and I came to Richmond to do engagement photos and we wanted our dog to be part of the fun. When I reached to Chloe to ask if she could help handle our pup, she was excited and eager to help. Right when we first met, Chloe offered to take Tor for a walk to get his wiggles out while my fiancé and I started our photo session.

Kenza did an outstanding job dog sitting our Labrador, Bowie. She was attentive, responsible, and clearly cared for him like he was her own. She took him on regular walks, kept him company while housesitting, and made sure he stayed happy and relaxed. We truly appreciated the photo updates and her thoughtful attention to his routine. Would absolutely trust Kenza again!
