“Kimberly was great with Chase as always! She's great at communicating with us, both when things are going great and when things come up and some flexibility is needed. Her concern for Chase is the first priority and we really appreciate that. Highly recommend!”

About: I have taken care of other peoples pets since I was a teenager. I have done drop ins and over night care for dogs and cats! I know fur babies are family and I take very good care of them. I have two dogs and four cats of my own! I would love the chance to let your pet get out and potty/stretch during the day or evening while you’re away. I am currently a stay at home mom. I have a lot of free time during the week as well as weekends. I can be available during the times of 8:30am-7:30pm or additional times if needed! I can let your dogs out to play and potty in your yard, if you don’t have a fenced in area I can put them on a leash and walk them. I can accommodate most things, just let me know your needs!

About: I have taken care of pets since age 10. Best part of my day is talking a walk or snuggling with a fur baby,one or yours! I just retired and am ready to do what I love most, devote my time and care to animals, whether that is walking, sitting, playing. I am attentive to the needs of the pet. If they need exercise, to be on leash, or elder and need in stroller. Safety is important

“Leah was a wonderful backup dog walker for me. She and my dog, Yen, got along great. It's so cute to see Yen greet and tell her goodbye. Leah was prompt, friendly and professional. I am happy with my choice.”

About: I have taken care of and owned domestic and exotic animals most of my life. Friends and family always go to me when it comes to watching their pets. I am making pet care my full time career. I will be available anytime time for feedings, walks, bathroom breaks, or even boarding animals. Anything your pet needs, I can make happen. I have a fenced in yard and doggy doors so pups can go in and out as they please. I have two of my own dogs too. (A golden and a corgi) They are extremely friendly and get along with any animal they have ever met. I have two cats and a ferret as well. They all play together and get along. They are also all fixed. If it is preferred that your pet stays away from certain pets I have, my home is big enough to accommodate any separation needs.

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have been pet sitting for over 2 years! As a child, I helped feed, bathe, clean up after and play with puppies my entire childhood. My love for dogs and animals grew with me and I began volunteering at animal shelters at 14 and working at dog care facilities at 16. I have been working in the pet care industry for 6 years and have been trained on dog behavior, handling and nutrition. I worked for a year as a veterinary assistant before moving to VA, and am looking forward to attending veterinary school this fall. I am experienced with dogs of all ages and understand the importance of training regimes for younger pups. I am also very familiar with senior care, including physical assistance and medication administration. I have also done personal pet sitting for as many as 6 dogs in one household and have references if needed! I value honesty, communication and transparency with pet parents. Please reach out if you would like to learn more! Currently, my day-to-day schedule is constantly changing between pet sitting and classes on certain weekdays. I have been extremely successful in working around others’ schedules with my own, message me to check if I’m able to work with your timeframe! I am experienced and knowledgeable on dog handling and focus on dog safety and comfort. All dogs being walked outside of their home must have a harness or gentle leader, I will not walk dogs with just a collar unless they are unable to wear a harness or gentle leader due to age or health and understand that this is a possibility for many dogs. I make sure a dog feels comfortable and safe with me both in their home and before going out for a walk to guarantee the best safety for both of us. I will not take a dog off-leash outside of their home unless we are in a fully fenced in area the dog cannot escape from. All dogs being walked by me must be familiar with being leash-walked and cannot be leash aggressive. Currently open every day, I just require a 2-3 day heads up! Hours of service include 7am-8pm weekly. House sitting visits include 24 hour care. I do not let dogs off-leash in non-fenced in areas or in spaces with dogs unfamiliar to yours. I require all dogs and cats to be updated on their rabies vaccines. I will not take an unaltered dog outside of his or her home, this is for the safety and wellbeing of your dog. If your dog struggles with behavioral issues and has a history of aggression, please include this in your message so I can help you decide the best options for your pet when it comes to meeting a new pet sitter. If your dog struggles with severe anxiety (this is very common!) please include some of the best anxiety-reducing practices for your dog (ex. favorite blanket, hiding spots, calming treats / jackets) in their care instructions so that they can have the best time possible without their favorite human.

About: I have extensive experience with separation anxiety and elderly dogs who have medical needs. I take care of pets the way I would want my pets cared for. I own a cleaning company and have a very flexible schedule. I have a large yard and lots of space for the fur babies to romp and play! I treat them as if they’re members of my family🥰 lots of love, play, attention, and treats! Rest easy knowing your pets are safe and happy in my home!

About: I believe that all fur babies deserve to be spoiled just as I spoil my own! I love to give treats and usually have dog treats with me anywhere I go. I do have a full time job but I have a very flexible schedule and work from home. I begin my visits as early as 630 am and can do visits until 10pm in the evening. I work from home so I can adjust my schedule to accommodate your needs. I have open availability on the weekends. I know the stress being away from my furbaby in the past I couldn't relax because I worried about her safety the whole time I was gone. Which is why I keep you in the loop about your pet when they are in my care, you won't have to hunt me down to make sure they are having fun. We make sure that we practice safe departures so that your dog is safe and

“Shemoy did amazing with the pups, and really saved me after a last minute cancellation. Always on time and took lots of pictures. My dogs, who can sometimes be judgey, took to liking Shemoy right away. Definitely recommended as a sitter/walker!”

About: Hello! My name is Alyssa and I am a 20 year old college student remotely studying Psychology and Criminal Justice. I’ve had dogs and a cat since I was young and was always held accountable to take care of them! I took a Veterinary Science class in High School and dealt with animals on a daily during this course (Bunnies and Puppies.) I have recently owned hamsters and fish as well that were 100% my responsibility. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and have 4 years of paid experience with pet sitting for neighbors. Animals deserve the world and I love to make a difference in their lives even if they don’t understand it :) I am also willing to negotiate pricing based off your animals energy/need for attention/etc. Please reach out to me with any additional questions and I’d be happy to answer! I am currently a college student who is taking online courses to work on getting my degree. Other than daily assignments, I have no other daily commitments and will be available 90% of the time, other than my planned unavailability on my calendar! I have a large front and back yard with plenty of room to play. I do have an indoor/outdoor cat but she keeps to herself and is never a bother. I could easily keep her separated from your pet. If in your home, I will be sure to take all the steps you request and go above and beyond to ensure you and your animals are comfortable.

About: I am a Canine Handler of 4 years where I have provided training, boarding, grooming, and medical services such as CPR to canines and there owners. I have entered into Prisons, Jails, Schools, Busch Gardens, Marathons, NFL Games, concerts, etc to conduct Narcotic and Explosive detection for the communities! I would love to open our home and knowledge to you and your fur family! We live in Callao, Virginia and love to travel! I have taken my canines to Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, D.C., Pennsylvania, Nee Jersey, New York and Texas for work purposes! Pet Care has a special slot of all the time, 24/7 routine, it is the most valuable part of the animal industry we are in. Pets are family members that don’t have the voice to communicate but the brain that will remember everything from trauma to the love. Pets are protected more than one way around me.

About: I've always had an affinity with every animal I encounter. I love all animals and personally can't have pets due to allergies of family members. So I share my love with your loved ones while you are on vacation. And yes I will sit and have a conversation with the fish so they don't get lonely as well. I've cared for a few neighbors dogs the past year and have fallen in love with them all and want to continue helping out those who need a trusted person to watch your furry or non furry loved ones. I'm currently unemployed and am needing to fill in gaps in my schedule between doctor appointments and kids activities. I'm available morning, afternoon and evening. I wish I could watch pets in my home but I will need to be the sitter in your home as we don't have a fenced yard or pet friendly home at the moment. I love to take dogs for walks, or just let them outside and play with them, then come inside for treats and snuggles before I leave.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12. Neighbors and family have relied one me to keep their loved one safe. Animals were always my passion. I currently work full time at a bank but I get long lunch breaks and I will see your pet in the morning and evening. I always make sure they have everything they need! I will always make sure your pet is in a safe environment. I will get to know their likes and dislikes and never put them in an unsafe situation.
