Pet Sitting Virginiatown

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life—from growing up with family pets to caring for my own as an adult—giving me years of hands-on experience and a deep understanding of their needs, behavior, and personalities. I’m a true dog-person and absolutely love being around them—they bring so much joy and companionship to everyday life. Sadly, I’ve had two of my own dogs pass away after living long, happy lives, but through that, I’ve gained valuable experience in providing the special care and attention older dogs often need. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely love. 💞 First time using Rover?

I love caring for humans and pets alike, and would love to walk and/or board your sweet fur-babe while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom with a lovable Shih Tzu of my own, caring for pets is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day and already spend lots of time walking, playing, and giving attention to my dog—so welcoming your furry friend into our routine comes naturally and with lots of love. I intentionally keep my bookings limited so each dog gets plenty of individual attention and feels like part of the family. At our home, every fur-babe is welcomed like a member of our family. Upon arrival, they’ll be given time to explore and settle in comfortably, at their own pace. I strive to create a warm, stress-free environment filled with cozy nooks, comfy beds, and plenty of playtime in our large back yard. The neighborhood also has a large park I can walk them to for some exercise and extra sunshine. I’ll ensure they have a familiar routine and are given lots of attention, from gentle belly rubs, to snuggles on the couch. I love sending photos and updates to keep you connected! You can rest assured knowing your pet is happy, safe, and surrounded by love while you’re away. Pets can sleep in an enclosed area with blankets and a bed or in a crate, if preferred.

About: Most recently have worked last couple years at dog boarding ranch - I love keeping dogs happy, active, and healthy. All sizes and needs welcome! I'm very flexible with scheduling! I currently enjoy lots of free time and love taking on new pets to make my days even more enjoyable. Completely at your service! Whether its dog walking, home sitting, or drop-ins, I treat every pup like it's my own. I genuinely ensure the wellbeing of every single pet in my care and will respect any individual needs or preferences of the owner.

About: I have been pet sitting for over 12 years in Washington D.C., Seattle, and Placer County CA. I had a roster of repeat clients and was so in demand that I had to stop advertising. All of my clients eventually booked me via word of mouth. I still keep in touch with all of my clients. I have taken care of all types (young, old, large, and small) of dogs and dogs with medical issues. I pride myself on being communicative and taking the best care of your pet, by tailoring the care to your expectations and pets needs. I have references upon request. Throughout the past 6+, I have experience house-sitting for family friends and neighbors and taking care of pets that couldn't go along with them on vacation. As part of a house-sitting service, I know that maintaining gardens and plants is tough, so I am always happy to help in that area as well as any other around-the-house duties. I pride myself on being very communicative and transparent. I always send the owners pictures of their and inform them about how things are going.

“Rebekka was amazing with my cat and dog. I could just tell by the photos she sent us how much they loved having her company. She went above and beyond with everything, especially communication. You can trust her with your fur babies!”

About: I've fostered puppies and kittens through local rescues for 2 years and I have cared for many special animals, including my own pets and pet-sitting for friends. I work from home so I'm able to be a pet companion for all-day and overnight stays. I work from home and can be a pet companion for all-day and overnight stays. I walk my own dogs every day and love taking dogs to the local park or for walks. I have a gated lounge/kitchen area to keep dogs safe in the house or away from other pets if needed. I have a large 3-acre outdoor space for dogs to walk and play leashed or unleashed, depending on what you're comfortable with. For cats I keep them indoors and can keep them in a separate room away from dogs and other cats if needed.

About: I have cared for and loved animals since I was a little girl. I was raised in a house with dogs of all types and have continued to have them in my life. I have two rescues, a 6-lb sweet female chihuahua and a 30-lb shy male terrier mix, that love to be around other dogs but who also are submissive to and respect other dogs’ needs for their own space. Having been a zookeeper and vet tech, I have worked on training various critters, as well as cared for elderly animals that need special attention or medications. I work from home with my husband full time and we are always ready for fur baby snuggles on our couch and bed. We also live near a canal and trails, so dog walks are very frequent in our home. Because we live farther away, we are also willing to come do pickups to keep you from having to drive to us, but we understand completely wanting to see where your pups are staying. I work from home nearly full time except Tuesdays, but my husband is home full time everyday. I am an early riser and can do early walks/pickup/potty breaks. As we are working on house projects due to this being a new and first home purchase, we are home a ton on the weekends too. If I am staying at your home, I can arrange to be there constantly because my husband is home to care for my pups. I don’t have a fenced yard, but live very close to a dog park that is fenced. I also have a canal trail right off my driveway and we walk our two dogs on it all the time. My two babies are extremely sweet and friendly with other dogs. I am an extremely tidy and organized person, so whether your pup stays with me or I come to your home, I can guarantee I will always leave things as good or better than I found them. Also, if you have any last-minute travel issues, I can almost always adapt to host longer to make sure you don’t have to stress about what will happen to your pup.

“We had Nicole watch our two cats (one a new playful kitty and the other an older cat who was quite sad after losing her companion weeks before) for 5 days as well as do some watering in our gardens. She and her partner did a fantastic job. We were worried leaving the cats but she was easy to communicate with, sent regular updates, and took care of everything that was asked of her. We would definitely use her again to care for our cats!”

I also provide each owner with plenty of pictures and updates throughout my stay, I believe communication is very important for me as a sitter and for you as the owner!

“Mikhalia is just amazing!! Firstly, I was impressed and comforted that she took the time to meet me in person even before I made a booking. She is personable, friendly and my cat Siri took to her immediately. She was super accommodating even though my schedule changed a few times and didn't hesitate to change the bookings. I received photos and updates of my cats during each visit and she followed all the instructions to the tee. I could tell my kitties had a lovely time with Mikhalia, and I'm so glad to have found a trusting cat sitter so close to where I live. I would definitely book her again and she has my full recommendation for any one looking for a great pet sitter!”

“As always, so thankful for McKenzie!! Without her to feed my elderly pup lunch/meds I would never be able to take a day trip. If you're stationed at Beale/without family in the area, she really is the best to care for your pets!”

“Isabella arrived right on time for Mazie’s drop-in walk and kept me updated throughout. She was attentive and communicative, and best of all, she sent photos from their time together—I loved seeing Mazie enjoying the outing. Isabella clearly cares about the dogs in her care. Mazie was happy when she got home. Couldn’t ask for better. Will definitely book again!”

About: Hi, I’m Viviana! I’m a 30 year old corporate professional and am home for the majority of the day due to my remote job. I live a pretty quiet, low key lifestyle as I’m engaged and have no kids. I love going on walks, reading, painting, writing and needlepointing. Pet sitting feels like a natural extension of how I already spend my time, and I’m happy to create a calm, consistent environment while you’re away. I’ve had my two dogs since college (both now seniors) and while they have very different temperaments I love them both so much. I’m experienced with anxious/ high energy / reactive dogs. My boy, Gilmore, was a shelter puppy and my first experience with this type of personality. My girl, Sophie is a lap dog personified and could sleep/ cuddle all day. They both have been with me for 10+ years. I’m home for the majority of the day due to my remote job. Walks, feeding schedules, medication, routines etc. can easily be followed as requested. I can send over updates/ photos throughout the day and can also take care of various small household tasks like mail, plants, and trash if needed.
