About: Had a dog growing up; cat for 6 years of my adult life Got into pet sitting for a family with 2 dogs, 3 cats — really enjoyed being active with their dogs and spending time with their pets when needed. I work full time from roughly 8:30-5:00pm I work remote at my home 2-3x a week My hobbies include being active running/walking; so what a perfect way to also spend time with animals as well. Love to travel so schedule can vary. Fenced yard with outdoor grass area. I live near the oceanfront, so I love to be active and walk around my neighborhood and or boardwalk.

“Annika is wonderful!! She is very reliable and takes great care of my two dogs. I definitely recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs!!”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid, of all types. My most recent breed was a Saint Bernard/Great Pyrenees. *He is not with me currently* I’ve had other large breeds, small breeds as well. I have training in ABA, and I know what it’s like to trust a stranger with your family. As an active duty sailor, I am on shore duty and have found myself with more free time than I could’ve ever imagined. Take those weekend trips you’ve been putting off, and know your doggo is in good hands with me Weekends (Friday-Sunday) are likely the best, but with advanced scheduling I can do during the week as well. If local to Virginia Beach or Norfolk, drop ins are not a problem at all. If you want your dog to stay home, house sitting is an option as well I live in a two bedroom apartment that’s pretty spacious and has vinyl flooring. I am only a few hundred feet from a dog park The community is very dog friendly, and your canine family will have no shortage of friends during their visit

“Laura is the best! She took great care of my cats while I was on a weekend getaway. Laura is the ultimate cat whisperer — if you would like someone who not only makes sure the cats are fed and kitty litter cleaned, but goes above and beyond to spend quality time with your kitties while you’re away, I 100% recommend Laura to take care of your fur babies.”

“Briana was very caring, accommodating, and loving to my two boys. I will definitely be using her again. Thank you Briana for taking care of Milo and Eddie. I truly appreciate your help while we were away.”

“Dorothy is VERY happy now that I’m home, she’s been yelling at me any time I’m not holding her. Thank you so much for taking care of my baby! Cordillia is very sweet, and gave a lot of love to Dottie. I’m sure she will give your fur babies just as much love!”

About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes. From playful puppies to senior dogs requiring special care, I’m well-versed in handling their unique needs. I’m also familiar with administering medication and have experience with training basic commands. One of the benefits of working from home is that I can offer flexible and attentive care for your pets throughout the day. My home-based work schedule allows me to provide: - Frequent Walks and Playtime: I can easily accommodate multiple walks and play sessions each day, ensuring your pet gets plenty of exercise and attention. - Consistent Supervision: Your pet will never feel lonely or neglected, as I’m around to keep them company and monitor their well-being. - Prompt Response: Whether it’s feeding time, administering medication, or attending to any special needs, I can promptly respond to your pet's needs. - Customized Care: I can adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s routine, making their stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I understand the importance of peace of mind while you’re away, and I’m committed to providing your pet with the care and attention they deserve. Beyond just care, I aim to build a bond with every pet I meet, making sure they feel at home and comfortable. I believe in treating every pet as if they were my own, providing them with the utmost love and attention.

“Monique is so flexible. I had her watch my dogs for a weekend and now they are in love with her! Highly recommend her when your fur baby needs some love!”

“Highly recommend! At the meet and greet she was so easy to talk to and our dog Luna loved her! While we were away I didnt worry if callie and luna were taken care of, she sent pictures of them getting all the love and attention. I think our house was cleaner than when we left too, 10/10 will be using every time we go out of town!”

About: Hi, I’m Hannah!👋 I’ve grown up caring for dogs of all kinds and have experience with puppies/kittens to seniors. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes and energy levels. I’ve also recently fostered cats over the last two years at JMU, so I’m happy to help care for a variety of animals. I truly love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for! I currently work part-time in the mornings during the summer. This leaves the early afternoon into the evenings to care for your pets. Some days I am available all day! I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, drop-in visits, or staying in your home to keep your pets comfortable and cared for. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends! I am able to provide excellent care for animals as well as tidying up around the home if needed. I will care for them as if they were my own and follow your directions to the letter. I am responsible and trustworthy and can provide references if needed.

About: Hi, I’m Wendy. I’ve been a lifelong dog owner and dog lover, currently sharing my home with Dennis, a senior Pom Chi rescue with a big personality and a gentle heart. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs with very different temperaments — from a spirited Australian Cattle Dog to an independent Shiba Inu — and I’ve learned how to adapt to each dog’s unique personality and pace. I believe in meeting dogs where they are — some need space and quiet, others thrive on play and routine. I’m patient, calm, and intuitive, and I take pride in making dogs feel comfortable, safe, and genuinely cared for. Whether that means slow walks for seniors, time to explore, or simply good company, I make sure every dog feels secure and happy. Our home is a calm, pet-focused environment, and between my husband and me, dogs enjoy consistent companionship and attentive care throughout the day. Friends describe me as reliable, detail-oriented, and steady under pressure — the person they trust when they need someone responsible to look after their pets. If you’re looking for someone experienced, kind, and committed to your dog’s well-being, I’d love to help. Dennis would agree — dogs make life better. I currently have a flexible schedule as does my husband so your pet will have consistent companionship. I take pride in being dependable and responsive, and I love spending my time doing something that brings me joy — caring for dogs. I live at the Virginia Beach oceanfront, with the feeder road just outside my door — a quiet, safe stretch that’s perfect for long, relaxing walks. Dogs in my care enjoy a calm, comfortable home environment, plenty of outdoor time, and lots of attention. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos, because I know how much peace of mind it brings to see your dog happy and well cared for

About: I provide compassionate and trustworthy pet care and treat every pet as if they were my own. Your fur baby’s happiness and comfort are always my top priority I know how important it is to feel at peace when leaving your pet, and I’m here to help with that. I currently have free full time availability as I am taking online college classes, I am available anyday anytime Monday-Sunday to help love and care for your pets. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. I follow all feeding instructions carefully, make sure they always have fresh water, give medications if needed, and keep their space clean. (I used to work in a veterinary office.) I spend quality time with them through walks, playtime, and gentle attention so they don’t feel lonely or stressed. I also watch closely for any changes in behavior or health and communicate updates to the owner so they feel at ease.

About: I live in the Chic’s Beach area in a duplex with my boyfriend. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I focus on giving them patience, attention, and plenty of playtime. I treat every pet like they are my own and always want them to feel comfortable and cared for. I always make sure to keep owners updated with photos and messages. I have been around dogs ever since I was an infant and grew up caring for them so being around animals is very natural to me. I am available for structured walks and exercise, regular feedings, reinforcing basic commands, basic puppy training, oral medication delivery, brushing/basic hygiene and loads of fun! Four years ago I rescued my cat, Sage, from the SPCA which changed my life for the better. She made me realize how much I love caring for and connecting with animals. Because of that, I always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I work full-time from home from 7:00 AM–3:30 PM, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I have a 30-minute lunch break and a two 15-minute breaks during the day that I can take at any time, making it easy for me to stop by for visits, feedings, or check-ins if you are within the nearby area. After 3:30 PM, I have plenty of time to dedicate to playing with, caring for, and giving your pets lots of attention. My main priority is keeping your animal safe and comfortable. I live in a very clean smoke-free duplex that has a yard and is in an amazing dog-walking area. I love to go outside so taking them out for walks multiple times a day will never be a problem.

About: Great with dogs and cats. Have had owned 2 senior dogs with special needs and many cats. Happy to also check on house and bring in packages while you are away. I work a full-time corporate job, but I have some flexibility to visit up to 2 times a day, every day except Tuesday and Wednesday. I will provide attentive, reliable care for your pets in the comfort of your home, ensuring their safety, routine, and well-being are maintained at all times. I respect your space and privacy, follow all instructions carefully, and prioritize trust through consistent communication and responsible, compassionate care.

About: I am a dog lover and I’m comfortable with all breeds. I had multiple pets including a dog and cat that I took care of growing up. I currently have no pets but have recently taken care of friends’ dogs. This has included overnight and daytime boarding at my house while taking care of all walking, playing, and feeding needs. I’m currently working PRN (part time) as a physical therapist and I have a lot of flexibility and freedom in my schedule. I’m looking to fill some of this free time with something that I’ve always enjoyed, taking care of pets. I am trustworthy, clean, and respectful of others homes when entering to care for their pets. I am happy to walk your dog wherever they normally like to go around your home.

About: Hi! I’m Morgan — a trusted pet caregiver with 4+ years of experience and a 5-star rating on Wag. I live right off the Virginia Beach Boardwalk, so I’m always active and love long walks, beach air, and giving pups plenty of exercise and attention. I’m originally from California and bring a calm, friendly energy that helps dogs feel safe quickly. I’m experienced with shy, high-energy, and reactive dogs, and I treat every pet like family. I have full availability devoted to pet care! I am currently working fully as a dog walker and pet sitter. I prefer to care for 1+ y/o dogs who can hold it for 4-6 hours 🐶💗. I am available everyday Monday through Sunday, all times open for sitting :) I have a two bedroom apartment with just my friendly 3 year old mini Goldendoodle and I. I keep the visiting fur babies safe by keeping all doors locked, nothing burning on the stove, all inedible-edible things off the floor and from doggos reach, and controlling the environment completely to ensure the fur baby is safe from eating anything unwanted or running out.

“Panda enjoys her visits with Janie. Janie sends pictures of the visits and Panda looks happy and relaxed during her visits. I will definitely recommend Janie to anyone that is in need of help with their dog child.”
