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

“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!”

“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!!”

“Tea did such a wonderful job of taking care of my two cats. They can be a little shy around strangers, but they ended up being social and excited whenever Tea came to take care of them. I received great pictures and had easy communication. I would feel great about having Tea take care of my cats again. :)”

“I don’t know where to start. Monique should have more stars available. Finding a trusting, caring person to watch your pets is hard to find. Not anymore, Monique made sure our pets were cared for, fed, loved on, played with, and given their medicine on time. She updated each visit with pictures and what our fur babies were up to that day. Not only did she go above and beyond caring for our pets, she took out the trash and did the litter boxes so that we came home to a clean smelling house! 10 stars should be available for this review. We will definitely be using Monique in the future, and I know our cats are just as excited to see her, as we are to have her watch them! Thank you!!!!!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs, ranging from puppies to seniors, for more than 15+ years and have a sweet 3-year-old Labrador that’s helped me gain additional experience ☺️ I’m currently taking a break from my career and figuring out what’s next — I have a lot of flexibility and time to walk and care for pets. I prefer to care for pets their own homes because I have a smaller space. I’m open to caring for dogs in my home but want to be transparent that I don’t have a backyard (only a nearby dog park).

About: Growing up, I have had the privilege of caring for and loving many different pets, including various rescue dogs, kittens cats, fish, birds, turtles, and bearded dragons. All shapes and sizes. My love for animals has continued into adulthood with my puppy Disco, who reminds me every day of the special connection we share with our pets. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where they feel happy and cared for. Pet care will be a part-time commitment that I build into my weekly routine. I will set aside dedicated time for feeding, playtime, cleaning, and providing companionship while making sure each pet receives reliable and loving care. I enjoy creating a consistent routine for animals so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I care for pets by creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment where they feel secure. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, playtime, and any specific instructions from the owner. I prioritize trust, patience, and attention to detail so every pet feels cared for like they are my own.

“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.”

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.

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.

“Our boys loved Taylor! Not only did she care for our pets, but took care of our home and garden while we were out of town. She is very communicative and reliable.”

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

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.
