House Sitting in West View Shores

“Jenni did an incredible job taking care of my Max. She sent me pictures and videos. She kept me informed about his days and how was doing. Very excited to have found her, will definitely call her in the future!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 15 years old. Whether it’s a quick check in, potty break, walk, cuddle buddy, etc. I’m looking forward to meeting your furry friends! I do work full time, as well as a full time college student. During the week, I work 9:30am-6pm and if I’m working on the weekends it is 8am-4:30pm. As long as it works with my schedule, I’m available! I have 3 dogs and 7 cats. I treat my pets like family. I make sure they’re on a consistent feeding and walking schedule, and I always keep their environment clean, safe, and enriching. I pay close attention to their behavior and health so I can catch any changes early. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or just being present, I make sure they feel loved, secure, and well cared for every single day.

“Rackeeem was amazing! He took care of our house and our furry babies (a cat and a dog). He is great with animals. My cat is a very shy one. He always hides when I am away. But somehow, after eleven years I have him, he said hi to Rackeen, and also played with him! I highly recommend him.”

“Taylor was great with Maxwell! On time, open communication, and most importantly, took excellent care of Maxwell. Look forward to working with her for future visits!”

“Reid was wonderful! Great communication. He gave me updates on my pups every day I was gone, he took my pups on wonderful walks. I will definitely be in contact again when I have to go on a trip! Thanks again for the great service and treating my pups like they are your own! ?”

“Kathleen did a wonderful job taking care of our animals (3 dogs) and did some extra cleanup for us. She sent us pics and took some extra time to not only watch after the guinea pigs, hamster and mouse, but even cleaned out their stinky cages. It was obvious that the dogs were comfortable with her. Thanks Kathleen. We appreciate all you did for us.”

Stephen W.

“Courtney was an amazing help with sitting Maxwell today. She was punctual, early in fact ;), followed all requests and most of all, made sure Maxwell was in good company. Communication was great and I felt confident that my little man would be in great care with her! We will be looking to have Courtney back in the future for sure. Thanks!”

About: I’ve been around animals all my life, & I can’t wait until I’m in a situation when I can finally have my own dog again. I’m knowledgeable about pet care & animal behavior, have great attention to detail, & enjoy learning more. I love every critter I meet (although I am partial towards chihuahuas & pits) & I have yet to meet a dog that didn’t like me. My family always had dogs growing up, & I have experience caring for a variety of dogs of different ages. I’ve only had two pet dogs that went through their entire life cycle with me, & my most recent doggo was a shitzu who came to me when she was 11. I spent her last few years trying to make her as comfortable & happy as possible. That’s the goal for every animal I care for. While this is obviously a job, & I do need the money, I genuinely enjoy getting to be helpful, to make someone’s life easier, & to, of course, spend time with dogs. I figure if I have to have a side hustle, it should at least be rewarding!! Thanks for reading!! I am a waitress- I usually work full-time, but it’s the slow season & we have a server surplus at the moment. I’m currently only scheduled for 3 night shifts a week, so my schedule is pretty open. Even on the days I do work, I would be able to check-in & care for the dogs before I go in, & can check on them afterwards as well if needed. Basically, I currently have plenty of time to fit in pet care. I am comfortable staying at someone else’s place; it would be nice to have a change of scenery every once in a while. Of course, I will treat your house with respect & be sure to leave it as it was when I arrived! If they wanna chill & sleep, that’s fine with me, but if they’re really active & need to play, I will play fetch & tug-o-war for hours on end. I have a car & supplies to take care of a dog if it is needed (snacks, poop bags, leash, blankets, first aid kit). I’m familiar with dog breeds & behavior & am aware of different training techniques so I’m not worried about being able to manage any dog- like getting them in their crate at the end of the night, or establishing a relationship with them, etc. I will care for your pet the way you want, but above all I will always care for an animal with the utmost respect & love, 💕

“Erin was super flexible with meeting our pets ahead of time, was responsive, dependable and neat. Sent pics and txts. Very appreciative of the last minute fill in on a holiday weekend!”

About: From caring for 10 senior dogs at a rescue, to bathing dogs that got sprayed by skunks, to training and taking dogs on their own outings to parks and nature hikes, you name it I’ve done it! Even flying with dogs! ✈️ I have experience with all breeds, ages, and like to keep pet parents informed with notes & pics. Growing up in farm country taught me to love and care for all animals, but dogs and cats are by far my favorite. I also have experience in administering medications to our furry friends. I left my career of being a nanny in CA to move to this area- to marry my awesome husband. Currently I’m working on a book for future nannies and thus can choose when I write. So the dogs get my full attention and are always number 1 when I’m with them. We live in an 3 story townhouse with a small unfenced yard in front of our home, to a large grassy area on the side of our home, to a giant green grass patch directly behind us just out our back door. The neighborhood is VERY dog-friendly with lots of sidewalks and comes complete with a dog park in walking distance. Our home is dog-friendly meaning dogs are allowed on all furniture and we even have doggie steps for little pooches to get up on our bed if they wish. We also have a 2mile + walking path near us. So we have plenty of activity options. We even have Pluto cartoons for your pet to watch! Pets get 100 percent of my attention when they stay with us. Their comfort and safety is my priority as I do pet care full-time. I also write various articles about childcare/nannying so this can be done whenever and not take away from my attention to your furry friend. Our home has no place that’s off limits to your pets. If they want to snuggle on our bed or relax on our couch or even be in our guest room - they are more than welcome wherever they are most comfortable. We even have a massive bean bag most animals love thinking it’s a giant dog bed 😂.

“Sabrina did a great job taking care of our 4-month-old puppy, Wednesday, and our kitty, Xander. She played with our puppy and let her out a bunch while she’s still potty training. She gave our cat some love, giving him company while our pets are still separating during their time still getting to know each other. It definitely helps us put our minds at ease when we leave for another trip knowing that they’ll be in great hands! :)”

“Heidi was great with Kona! We asked her to stay at our house for 3 nights with our lab who has some anxiety issues when left alone. She sent us lots of pictures, was great at communicating throughout the visit, was extremely friendly and left our house just like we left it! Kona seemed super happy and relaxed when we got back which is always a great sign. ☺️ We would definitely recommend Heidi to any family and friends!”

“Tre has a calm demeanor & is very professional. He came over prior to house sitting to meet our dog, who took to him immediately. He followed our schedule, took him for long walks and when we came home our dog was well adjusted and comforted. Thank you, Tre for a job well done!”

About: I have had animals all my life, so I have plenty of experience. I currently have 7 cats, 3 dogs, 2 ferrets, & a horse making me well versed in the animal world! I currently work part time which will leave me plenty of time to be your pets new personal butler and snack dealer! I can’t wait to meet them! At my house my animals are the number one priority. Their needs before mine always! My cats never miss a meal, same as my other animals! My dogs go outside multiple times and I always make sure to include some play time in there as well!

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities since I was 10 years old. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I’m patient with shy pups, energetic with playful ones, and attentive to senior dogs who need extra care. I’m currently only working part time so I have a lot of flexibility to fit in pet care! I am available anytime Monday through friday! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to maintain their routine. I provide lots of attention, playtime, and ensure a clean, safe environment. I'm respectful of your space and your pet’s comfort is my top priority.

“Christine was exceptional and took such great care of our home and our pup. She provided frequent updates with photos and videos. We scheduled last minute so finding such great care was a huge relief for us. Would recommend her and use her again in the future.”

“I highly recommend Zach to anyone in the Chincoteague VA area or Greenbackville VA area we came to Chincoteague on vacation and needed a sitter. He was on time and promt with conversations. Our dog loved him”

About: I've been taking care of various types of animals for over 7 years. I've been the primary caretaker for a Labrador as well. I'm great at walking, feeding, bathing and just being in tune to the pet's needs. I currently work remotely so I am able to watch pets during the day and take them on 1-2 walks during the day and as many as necessary after 5pm. I will make sure to follow the client's instructions exactly and will make sure to provide loads of care, attention and love towards your pet :)

About: I have been an animal lover since a very young age, when I was around 8 I started volunteering at a barn simply because I loved to be around animals. I was constantly walking my neighbors dogs and my own. I now work at a boarding facility where I take care of dogs and cats. I love it and enjoy nothing more than making sure your pets are happy and cared for when you are not able to be there all the time. My family currently has 3 rescue dogs, a cat and 3 horses. I look forward to the opportunity of caring for your fur babies!! I am going into my freshman year of college and have volleyball practice everyday of the week and want to be able to do something that I love in my free time I currently have 3 dogs that get along really well with each other and other dogs. I have lots of room for puppies to play and they can easily be crated if needed.

About: I have always loved animals and cared for them since I was 17. I love to show them affection and do active things with them. I currently working full time however I do work from home. I will be able to fully take care of your pet while being home. I do live in an apartment however we do have a dog park, I also like to take walks all the time so I will have your pet enjoying the outside.
