2. Julie P.
About: I have cared for pets my whole life from my own, to neighbors, family members, friends and strangers! I love pets of all kinds. I have owned pets from chinchillas to cats and have always had a dog in my household. I am hoping to provide love and care to pets of all ages! I am working between the hours of 7:30-3pm Mon-Fri so I have some availability in the early mornings and a lot of availability in the evenings! My weekends are mostly free to care Friday evening through Sunday evening! My cat has her own side of the house she stays in but I can crate my pet or your pet if needed. I live on 13 acres of land away from main roads so there is plenty of space for your pets to run/go for walks with me and no danger of traffic!

About: I’ve taken care of animals pretty much my whole life. I started out walking dogs around the neighborhood and moved my way up to training bullmastiffs with my family. We have had bullmastiffs for a few years now and I absolutely adore big dog breeds! I would love to take care of your animals for you!! I’m currently a student at Virginia tech so I will have free time in between classes and a majority of the day! My schedule is pretty flexible however you may need! I can feed, play with, brush, bathe, walk, run, whatever your pets may need, I can do for them and for you to make your life easier!

8. Crystal G.
“Crystal kept my 2 dogs for 3 weeks while my husband and I were out of town for medical purposes. I had never left my babies for longer than a long weekend, otherwise they went on vacation too. Crystal made this experience worry free. She was great with the dogs, kept us updated with pics and phone calls, and managed tasks at the house. I highly recommend her for your fur children - you can see immediately that she is a pet lover and knowledgeable about their care.”
