“Ayme was excellent! She sent multiple pictures while dropping in to check on our pup while we we’re away and spent lots of time outside with her! Ayme even went over to let our dog out an extra time since we hit traffic on our way home. Her flexibility and thorough check ins made the weekend stress free! We will definitely be contacting her again! Thanks Ayme!”

About: I am a recent graduate from The University of Virginia who grew up in an animal-loving home. I am an attentive pet sitter and dog walker with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and in-home care, focusing on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining their normal routines. I’ve grown up caring for animals and currently have a friendly Bichon and two cats of my own, so I understand how important trust, consistency, and individualized care are. My experience includes daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, basic grooming, litter box care, and administering simple medications when needed. I’m especially patient with shy, senior, or anxious pets and always take a calm, respectful approach. I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available for daytime walks and visits, evenings, and weekends, and I can accommodate pets who need multiple check-ins or extra attention throughout the day. I take pride in being dependable, communicative, and attentive to detail. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure pet parents feel confident and at ease while they’re away. I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available for daytime visits, walks, and extended care, as well as evenings and weekends. Because my schedule is flexible, I’m able to accommodate pets who need consistent routines, multiple check-ins, or extra attention throughout the day. I live in a calm, pet-friendly home with one friendly Bichon and two cats who are well-socialized around other animals. I carefully supervise all interactions and can easily separate pets if needed. I follow each pet’s routine closely, prioritize cleanliness and safety, and communicate regularly with pet parents to ensure peace of mind while they’re away.

“Danyelle is amazing! 10/10 highly recommend. I felt extremely comfortable. She is extremely flexible, my fur baby loved her, and she goes above and beyond!”

About: Hi, I'm Emily! I've been drawn to animals of all kinds since I was a kid! I grew up taking care of both cats and dogs, and have had a dog of my own since 2021. I'm well-versed in animal care; in addition to the basics (walks, feeding, play), I'm familiar with many common needs, like medication administration, training/behavioral reinforcement, and gland expression. I have a flexible schedule and typically respond to requests within a few hours. I'm able to spend a lot of my time at home; usually when I'm out of the apartment, it's for no more than about four hours or so at a time. My standard schedule is to provide three walks a day (morning, midday, evening) plus a quick potty break before bedtime, but I can adjust that up or down depending on your dog's needs. Dogs staying with me can expect lots of pets, cuddles, and playtime. I do allow pets on my furniture and bed, but if that's a behavior you're trying to limit, I can take that into account while your pet is staying here. At all times, and especially when outside, the safety of your pet is paramount to me. During walks, I actively monitor for dangerous situations/behaviors, like encounters with unfamiliar dogs or trying to eat things they shouldn't. Please feel free to share anything about your pet that I should take into account while they're in my care.

“Abby was amazing during the holiday break. Consistent communication with each check-in that was arranged and very thoughtful care of my cat Io. Always filled out a rover card with updates and pictures.”

“If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Claire was super reliable and very attentive to detail. We were 100% confident we could put all of our trust in her with our cat Sylvester from the first moment on! She definitely went above and beyond and followed all instructions to the T and sent pictures everyday! We will definitely be hiring her again and recommend her 150%!!”

Sara D.

“Emily was easy to work with, took great care of the kitties, and was able to accommodate an extra day as our trip home was postponed by one day. Would definitely use again!”

“Booked Emmalee to take care of my senior cat over Thanksgiving. She was kind, communicative, and left a really sweet photo of him for me when I got home. Randy seemed to be in great hands with Emmalee while I was away. Would definitely book her again! THANK YOU!”

About: I work full time as a Registered Nurse, but I have a love for all animals and would love to hang with your fur babies on my days off. I have years of experience taking care of all animals, I grew up around dogs, cats, birds, horses, frogs, and snakes . We have an aussie named Blue that we love so much and I would love to help you out with your furry friends. I can provide references as needed but can assure you your babies will be in good hands. We can also work on training as needed, make trips to the dog park, or just walk around the block! My pup is really playful so we could also have play dates if you feel comfortable with that.

During the week, I am able to travel to your pet in the morning and evening (before and after work). On weekends and on school breaks I am very flexible.

I am very welcoming to all behaviors and I will follow all expectations perfectly, as well as take care of your animal with as much love as you would!

About: My partner and I bring over 10 years of dog care experience and 5+ years managing a stable multi-dog group. We carefully watch body language, work to prevent issues early, and keep feeding routines steady so each dog feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for. We’re comfortable working with multi-dog households, different energy levels, and group dynamics. Our focus is creating a safe, structured, and positive environment where dogs can socialize, play, and settle comfortably. My specialty is organization and structure, my partner specializes in socialization and behavioral management. Pet care is part of our daily life. Someone is home throughout the day. We organize our schedule around the dogs in our care so they receive consistent supervision, play, and individual attention. We have a fenced backyard and fenced front yard, giving dogs safe space to move, explore, and play. Inside we provide a dedicated dog room and crates for dogs of all sizes, creating a comfortable and secure place for them to rest when needed. Dogs are thoughtfully grouped by temperament, with attention to proper rest rotation and consistent feeding routines to support balance and comfort. Whether in our home or a client’s home, we focus on safety, supervision, and each dog’s individual needs. We follow established routines, maintain a steady and secure environment, and make sure every dog feels comfortable, cared for, and at ease.
