18. Mariah C.
About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember! I grew up with a mom who worked in the Richmond Animal Shelter & a house full of adopted animals. From my sisters spoiled Pibble baby to my neighbors sweet little Yorkie, I’ve been their go to sitter/walker to watch their babies because they know I’ll love on them like my own fur babies 💕 I love to do Meet & Greets prior to your baby’s walk/drop-in if feasible. Coko & I are available Saturdays & Sundays for Meet & Greets! I am a mom of 3 & we have a Shih-poo named Coko. My babies have all grown up around family dogs and understand to be gentle with fur babies. Our neighborhood is very dog friendly so I’m sure we’ll meet a friend or two on ours walks.


19. Erin T.
“Erin was an amazing sitter for my dog Bexley, easily one of the best (if not the best) sitters I’ve seen. 10/10 would recommend without hesitation for anyone looking for a dog sitter.”


20. Piper G.

“Piper is the best!! Piper stepped in at the last minute when we had an issue with our previous sitter. She gave the pups plenty of love and exercise, and FaceTimed so I could go through their routine and virtually walk her through the house virtually. We truly cannot thank her enough!! To boot, she left the house in immaculate shape. Thank you, Piper ❤️”
