Pet Sitting Venable

“Tracy was so great with meeting my pup! She spent so much time and careful questioning to make sure she had all of the necessary information to take care of him. I feel very, very confident in recommending her to others.”

“Ed did a great job with my big dog! He treated Bozwell as family. He even followed my recipes for Boz's meals specifically. I highly recommend Ed.”

“Karlee is a great sitter! She’s super friendly and responsive to visits. She’s done a great job at doing house visits for my puppy to tire him out and keep him engaged when I’m busy. Would definitely recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds for over 8 years and have experience with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, and overnight care. Friends, neighbors, and family have relied on me to care for their pets and make sure they feel comfortable and safe while away. I also have personal experience with wound care and closely monitoring my own dog during recovery, so I understand the importance of patience, attentiveness, and following care instructions carefully. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like my own. I’m currently working part time at the University of Virginia, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to spend caring for your pets throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and making sure your pets get lots of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in both my home and my client’s home. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any special care requests. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and needs and make sure they get plenty of affection, exercise, and supervision. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

“Josephine is excellent, very reliable and caring. She sent me detailed reports and photos every day, so I could relax knowing my dog and cat were in good hands while I was away.”

“Danielle was excellent with our pups. She followed our instructions well, and her kind and calm demeanor went a long way with our older, somewhat neurotic dogs. Will definitely be using her again and would recommend to others as well!”

“Julia was an absolute lifesaver! She accepted an incredibly last-minute booking without hesitation. My dog Frankie gets a bit or of separation anxiety and sadness when we leave town, but Julia handled it with total patience, compassion and professionalism. Very clear to communicate everything going on with the pup. Without ever meeting the pup before she was extremely reliable when I left her with some instructions. She went above and beyond! I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such flexible and capable hands. Highly recommend!”

Brett Z.

“Rhiana was great with our 3 cats and very quick to respond to our request and questions when I had to make a last minute change. I would recommend her to all cat lovers!”

Samantha H.

“Thanks for the extra help, very detailed.”

“My dog had such a great time with Bertie while I was on vacation, she probably didn’t even notice I was gone. Seeing the pictures of their day together made me happy and I will rebook in the future!”

Abby S.

“Very communicative, sent us lots of photos of our fur babies, & very accommodating. Loved that she also was willing to do a meet & greet first. We would totally use Amy for her services again!”

About: I have taken care of dogs for a friend for a few years now. I also have experience with taking care of a local family’s 2 sweet dogs. I have been their go to for a few years now. I also have experience as a pet owner, I grew up with dogs my entire life, at one time we had a pack of 8. My goal is to ease your pet’s anxiety when their favorite person is not there. I will work to make sure your pet has the structure they need, the enrichment they crave, and the love they deserve. I do work full time Monday -Friday 8am-5pm so I am free on weekends and happy to stay with the animals when I’m not working. I can also check in on my lunch hour to ensure they have the restroom breaks they need and the enrichment time. I am very attentive when I am caring for you furry family members. I make sure that they have fresh water and get fed at the correct times. I always send photo updates each time the pets go outside or eat. I am very flexible with what is required if you’re able to be flexible and understanding of my work schedule.

“Amelie was amazing! She was clear, organized, and took the best care of my pup all while providing the cutest updates. I would recommend her to anyone and definitely will be using her again!!!”

Madison P.

“Alice had a couple difficult situations that she dealt with brilliantly and Louis seemed to love her! Would definitely rebook with her!”

Ryan S.

“Erin did a great job with my cat! She was very responsive, made sure he got some good attention and playtime, and cleaned up at least one mess! Also, the photos she sent me were amazing - I annoyed everyone in my family by making them gather around to see the batch of photos from Erin every day 😂 I have a feeling this will not be the last time my cat gets to hang out with Erin.”

About: I’ve owned many dogs over my lifetime. From a Min Pin to Collies, Retrievers and Pointers. I have taken care of friends and relatives animals while they were out of town. I have done long time sits (several weeks) to daily drop ins. I’m retired so I have lots of time to care for your pets. I love taking walks and getting to know each animal whether it’s to come hang out and play, feed etc or take for long or short walks. I don’t have any dogs or cats living with me now due to my landlord not allowing pet ownership. They don’t mind if I bring a dog here for short periods.

“Thanks for taking good care of my pups this weekend! I appreciate the attention to instructions and detail, and the photos. Your communication was prompt.”

Jason T.

“Kirtly was awesome, showing up for every appointment right on time. My pup not only liked him, but when I returned, he had gotten so many brushes that his fur was smooth as silk. Will definitely book again with Kirtly in the future!”

“Dakota met us and our GS before we left town. We were very pleased and comfortable leaving our pet under his care. He didn't just drop in to feed and walk him, he also played with him. We will never use boarding. We will differently use Dakota again when needed.”

Lisa G.

“Doris did a wonderful job of checking on our dog on short notice while we were gone for the day! We appreciate the extra attention and cuddles she gave our girl, Mila!”
