Dog Walking Westover Hills

“Sidney is so wonderful with our sweet pug! We trust her deeply and she is a great communicator and very flexible with our somewhat unpredictable schedules.”

“Nina is an incredibly kind and reliable sitter! She has walked my dog Winnie for the past year and it has been lovely to work with her. Winnie always enjoys her walks with Nina!”

“Deiandre was great. He was very communicative and gave detailed reports after every walk. It was such a relief knowing my sweet girl was in good hands while I was on a work trip.”

About: I've never not had animals in my life! I spent my early years on a working farm and have always had a way with animals. Dogs love me (cats, too!) and I them ❤️ I have many years of experience in the veterinary field and know what to do in emergencies. I am currently working part time and my schedule is flexible. I do work away from home for 5-8 hours a day, split shift. I have dogs amd cats but can keep them separate, if necessary. My dogs are dog friendly, although my beagle mix is very bossy (typical!) Dogs will be in the house with my dogs, but they can be separated, if needed. I can crate, if the parents supply the crate. Dogs will be leash walked in the wide front yard but we can also go across the street to the dog park, too!

“Nicole does such a great job with my baby. On days when it’s too hot she still makes sure he goes out and gets playtime and love. I absolutely love that she takes multiple pics to show what they’ve been up to. Pork Chop enjoys her visits so much”

“Kate is reliable and went above and beyond to care for my pup. Very grateful for her help”

About: I specialize in thoughtful, low-stress care for cats of all personalities—from social and playful to shy and selective. I take the time to understand each cat’s routine, preferences, and boundaries so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I have experience with multi-cat households, administering basic medications, and caring for senior cats who need a little extra patience and attention. I’m highly reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented, and I treat your home and your cat with the same level of care I would expect for my own. You can expect regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your cat is in calm, capable hands. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around visits, ensuring I’m always on time and able to provide consistent, attentive care. I’m intentional about not overbooking so each cat receives the time, attention, and calm presence they deserve. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or a longer visit, I prioritize being fully present and dependable. I focus on maintaining each cat’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. During visits, I handle feeding, fresh water, litter box care, and playtime or companionship based on your cat’s personality. I take the time to understand preferences — whether that’s interactive play, quiet company, or simply respecting their space. I’m attentive to small changes in behavior or appetite and will always communicate anything noteworthy. I also treat your home with care and respect, keeping things clean and consistent. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you always know how your cat is doing.

“Marlowe is awesome! She loves (and can handle!) my very excitable pit and is great with her. Lisa is always tired after a visit with Marlowe. It gives me so much peace of mind to know that Lisa can get some quality play and snuggle time during the day with Marlowe. I would recommend her to anyone.”

About: I’ve always been an animal person and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and reptiles, including my own ball python. I grew up with an Australian Shepherd who can be very anxious, so I’m used to being patient with nervous pets and helping them feel safe and comfortable. I’ve pet sat for animals of all different temperaments, including a cat with a more aggressive personality, so I understand the importance of respecting each animal’s boundaries and adapting to their individual needs. I love spending time outdoors and taking walks, and I know the Richmond area well. With two years of professional housekeeping experience, I’m comfortable caring for both pets and homes with the same level of respect and attention to detail I’d want for my own. My goal is to provide dependable care for both your pet and your home, while making sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! I work about 20 hours a week as an esthetician and make my own schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. Because I set my own hours, I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I would love to fit pet care into my routine. I believe every pet is different, so I do my best to follow their normal routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while keeping up with their feeding schedule and any specific instructions you provide. For cats staying in my home, I’ll provide a calm, safe environment where they can settle in at their own pace. Having lived with multiple cats of various personalities, I understand that some cats are social while others prefer their space, and I’m happy to accommodate both! I will stay in regular communication, providing updates and photos so you always know how they’re doing!

“Grant was so amazing to my little Loretta! Can’t recommend him enough!”

Maxwell S.

“Conrad stepped in at our late notice and took fantastic care of our two dogs! They were staying with a sitter who could not walk them, and Conrad came to the rescue with walking them for a full hour every day, reliably and on-time! He communicates really well, is really responsible, and clearly has experience with dogs. One of my dogs is also dog-reactive, and Conrad knew just how to manage any reactive signs on walks and keeps distance from other animals. He listens well to instructions and is just a great dude. I’m happily looking to making him our regular go-to pet sitter and walker whenever we need support!”

Neethi J.

“Kacey was great! Professional, responsible, and highly communicative. Most importantly, the dogs immediately loved her! Would definitely hire again.”

About: I’ve had dogs growing up and had to take care of them a lot as well as having experience as a kennel tech over some summers! I’m currently off over the summer while school is out so my availability is very open. I can take care of your pets when ever you need me. I have an apartment that I am more than happy having pets stay in however there is no yard. I am happy to stay with them and house sit.

“Maggie is extremely dependable and professional! We appreciate her clear and prompt communication and summaries of her time with our fur baby.”

Rebecca F.

“Jeffrey provided me with the confident he would take care of Hailie well. Shared a brief description of his time with her and a picture as well. Communicated well and is very polite.”

Jesus C.

“Ashley is great! She is extremely reliable and my dog loves her.”

About: Ive taken care of many breeds of dogs from various sizes and ages since I can remember. I currently own a puppy and am loving every part of it. I currently work part-time from 5am-9am so I have plenty of time during the rest of the day to take care of your pets whenever! I love taking my dogs on trails and around the neighborhood to make sure they get plenty of exercise and enrichment. This is important to ensure they stay happy!

About: I’m a responsible and passionate professional hoping for a chance to spend quality time caring for your pets! I have cared for dogs my entire life, from an adorable shi tzu mix to a lovable deaf pit. I am available for dog walking and drop-in visits for dogs and cats. I’m also happy to assist you with collecting mail, watering plants, and running pet-related errands while you’re away. Need help with more than one furry friend? No problem! I am comfortable caring for up to three dogs at once. I also have extensive experience caring for cats with all types of personalities. I have my own transportation and can travel within Richmond city limits. Your pet deserves all of the care and special attention in the world - and you can trust me to provide just that! I’m a VCU instructor on summer break until August, so every day of the week is open for booking. I am happy to conduct two or three drop-ins or walks per day. As the proud parent of a neurotic dachshund mix, I understand that every pet has their unique needs! I will follow any instructions you provide and will send photos, videos, and any other updates you request.
