Dog Walkers in Vesuvius, VA

About: I’ve had pets all my life and have experience caring for sick animals, so I can administer any medications, be it pills or injectables. Besides dogs I have cared for cats, rabbits, chickens, rats, snakes, and fish. I can take your dogs for walks or even take them on a trip to the dog park. I might not look that strong but I can hold on to a leash. I have walked extra large dogs with no problem. To see more pictures of my pet care experience, follow me on instagram. My handle is all_my_pet_friends I am often either booked by my repeat guests or out of town, so please check my calendar and give me some advance notice. If I know you need me ahead of time, I can be sure to be around then. Thanks! _______________________________________________________________ Roughly 64% of animals that enter shelters are put down. Each year, an estimated 9.6 million animals are euthanized in shelters for lack of a home. Please help control the pet population by having your pets spayed or neutered. Adopt, don't shop! I work from home so I can be highly flexible to meet your schedule and I am also able to pick up and drop off. If your dogs come to stay at my home I have a fenced in yard. If I come to your home I will be respectful of your space.

“Anmoljot has been walking Lilac for almost 2 weeks now and is wonderful! She gives updates everyday and fun pictures! We are so fortunate to be using her for our lunchtime breaks because we know Lilac is safe and loved on!”

“Such a lovely experience. Jaime was quick to respond and shared photos of Dolly on their walk. We’re booking her for a weekly Sunday visit!”

“April has been my dog walker for years. She even stays overnight when I go away. She truly LOVES dogs and very attentive to their needs. I have 3 Italian greyhounds and 2 of them are special needs with special diets. April follows very intricate instructions which makes me feel at ease leaving them. A major plus is the dogs LOVE April. She is very sweet and has a soft and gentle disposition. We all love April.”

“Alex has taken care of Siby (Husky mix) for long periods at a time while I was in Veterinary school. He's very knowledgeable of canine behavior and takes time with each pet. He's also good with heeler breeds and working breeds. He's also very flexible with schedule and different pets needs. Definitely recommend!”

“Alexander is a super responsible and friendly person. He’s one of my best friends and I have seen him care for his new puppy, Rocky, during 2020. I saw how he was very diligent on feeding, training, and playing with Rocky during his early puppy years. Alexander has always loved dogs and I think he would be a great person to take care of anyone’s dog!”

“Awesome caretaker! My doggie had a great time ☺️”

“Angel is GREAT! She is very kind and is great with my pup!”

About: Hi, I'm Katie. I am new to Rover, but not to pet sitting. I grew up with pets and have had them the majority of my adult life. I currently live on a hobby farm just outside of Staunton. I have a flexible schedule and will love and care for your pet(s) as if they are my own. I am attentive to detail and will follow any and all guidelines and preferences you provide. I have a flexible schedule and I am available with short notice. I can be available most times through out the day. I am responsible and will love and care for your pets. I currently have pets of my own and prefer to care for pets in their own home. I am happy to make multiple checks daily and walk and clean up after pets.

“Isabel was wonderful with our Aussiedoodle, Buster. He's still very much a puppy and she redirected his energy from jumping to more constructive activities. They were instant friends and I trust her to take him on walks any time!”

About: Used to have a giant Great Dane named Harper! Neighbors and friends use me to let out, feed and walk their dogs since I work from home most days! Would love to see if I can help out. Currently work from home, but can generally make my own schedule to fit any personal needs that may arise. Wouldn’t mind helping out when I can! I have a fenced in yard and currently no pets! So plenty of space to run around and play in the yard. Also have a quiet neighborhood to walk in!

“Elisabeth is a responsible and trustworthy caretaker. I’ve known her for several years, and she has proven herself highly capable in many areas. I highly recommend her! Victoria G.”

“Shannon is a loving and responsible pet owner. With 2 kitties and 2 pups of her own, she knows the ins and outs of pet care. Shannon would make a fantastic pet and house sitter- you can relax knowing that she’s looking after your babies.”

“Aurora is amazing and will definitely be our #1 go to person for additional pet care. Our pup absolutely loved Aurora. She was very communicative with us throughout the day while we were away, which was awesome since this was our first experience using a service like this.”

“Jessica has taken care of our animals and this of others for years. She’s kind, loving and thoughtful. She treats them like they are her own animals. She always goes above and beyond.”

“Kendall was on time and courteous. She walked Casey and spent time with him. Thank you.”

About: I’ve always loved taking care of dogs. I am comfortable caring for any age including puppies and senior dogs. I love to spoil fur babies! I currently work full time during the week, but I am off on Fridays, so I can be available for care Thursday evenings through Sunday. We have a very large fenced in backyard for outside play time. Our 2 year old son loves to play with dogs, so we can only host dogs that are good with kids.

About: Caring for animals is not just what I do. It is who I am. I am a dog and cat lover, as well as a licensed veterinary technician. My schedule availability varies from week to week. Just message me and let me know what your (and your pets) needs are. I will respond quickly. In the chance I am not available, I will do my best to connect you with a colleague who is available. My pet care services include feeding, walking, litter boxes, medication administration (including injections). I offer drop in visits up to 4x daily locally. I have references available.

“When I think of someone that loves nothing more than animals, I think of Natalie. Any type of animal, she loves it unconditionally as if it were her own. She always wants to make sure every animal has the best care. I could not think of a better sitter/provider for someones pet than her because she treats every animal as if it's her own. From updates, to pictures, she goes the extra mile to deliver the service she wants when she leaves her fur babies, every time. If she could keep or help every animal, she would. If you're looking for someone to treat your pet like it's hers and be a trusted go to sitter for any needs you have, this is your girl.”

About: Not only do I have experience with my own babies for a lifetime, I’ve also worked w/ Rottweilers, helped mothers with birthing, feeding puppies & handling adult Rotties. I enjoy animals of all kinds and love being around them. I have plenty of time open to care for your babies. I’m available 7 days a week. I’d like to become a full time pet sitter for you or as needed. Ill treat your babies like I treat my own. I don’t reach after the animal to pet them. I wait until they come to me. Building trust with your pet is important to me. I’ll offer treats as a reward if the owner is ok with treats.
