Dog Walkers in Wheatlands, VA

“Elizabeth took great care of my dog Rory. She communicates well and arrives on time to walk him. My puppy had diarrhea and Elizabeth helped clean it up, put the dirty towels in the laundry, and allowed me to not have to worry while I was at work. Thank you so much!”

About: I have such a passion for animals - I grew up with dogs and lived with my roommate’s cat in college. I am comfortable caring for both! I am new to the area and am hoping to make some furry friends. I’m currently transitioning as I’ve just moved to the Richmond area! I am available for early and mid-day walks/visits. I am available 7 nights a week, with some short notice. I am comfortable with a large variety of pet personalities. If your fur baby prefers space I can me a quiet companion to meet their needs, or I’m there to play fetch with the more energetic ones! I am comfortable feeding, bathing, walking, cuddling, and administering medication if need be.

“Shannon was huge help walking our dog Nora after my foot surgery. She was responsible, communicative, and took some cute pictures of Nora during their walks! We will definitely book again.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, growing up in a home with multiple pups of all sizes. From feeding and bathing to long walks and playtime, I’ve always been hands-on in making sure they’re happy and well cared for. In addition to dogs, I’ve also raised birds, turtles, and fish, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of animals. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I always aim to make them feel safe, loved, and at home. I currently work from home so I’m able to provide physical comfort and stimulation via petting and playing with toys. We also have a dog park where I can take your pet for off leash running around and fetching. I have experience providing oral medicine for dogs. I allow dogs on furniture and free roaming in the house, but if you have a crate and wish to bring it just let me know. Please provide any instructions on feeding schedule or items.

“Love Elizabeth! She is reliable and my dogs love her. I have already booked next sitting.”

“Kelly was great with our new shelter dog Mindy. Kelly was prompt to respond to messages and very easy to schedule with. It was clear from our meet and greet that she is a true dog lover! Poor Mindy was terrified on her first day and wouldn't come out of her crate, but on the second day, Kelly was able to coax her out and take her for a walk. Have already re-booked!”

About: Hi I’m Corinne! I’ve loved animals since I was very young and took care of my dog since we adopted her in middle school. I began pet sitting in middle school and have taken care of a large range of pets including dogs, cats, hamsters, bunnies, and even a duck! Whether your pet needs long walks, quiet company, or extra pets, I’m down for the job! Additionally, I have spent over 100 hours volunteering at my local animal shelter during the summer and I’m continuing my animal knowledge as a Wildlife Conservation major at Virginia Tech. I am currently a student at Virginia Tech, but have lots of flexibility with my schedule especially in the evenings and weekends for pet care! I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I’m reliable, communicative, and can always send photo updates so you know your pet is happy and safe while you’re away. I am comfortable cleaning up after your pet in a capacity including accidents and litter boxes.

“Mark took great care of our puppy. He was very quick to respond to my request (it was somewhat short notice) and was a lifesaver. He kept us updated and paid attention to our dogs needs. I highly recommend Mark and will be using him in the future.”

About: Hello! 🐶 I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, including dogs, cats, fish, and even a pet shrimp! I’m not shy around medications, multiple animals, or high energy pets. I have extensive experience loving senior pets and those with special needs. I’m a daytime and overnight dog and cat sitter with almost 20 years experience caring for animals! 🐱 I am a graduate student, dog and cat mom, and enjoy lots of hobbies like gardening, reading, sourdough baking, and biking. I would love to spend my extra time hanging out with your pets! I treat my clients’ pets and homes as I do my own. I understand how intimidating it is to trust a stranger with their schedules, medications, anxieties, and even your own home while you’re away. I’m comfortable asking for clarification when needed and communicating to make sure your pets have what they need.

“Carolyn is a reliable drop-in/walker for our 5yo boxer keeping us informed with pics of our happy pup.”

About: Hey there! I'm Alyn and I absolutely LOVE spending my free time with pets!! I adore both cats and dogs and have over 10 years of experience caring for many pet personalities. With my own pets, I've cared for senior pets, dogs with special medical needs, reactive dogs (my current baby), anxious cats, and playful puppies. I've also worked at an animal shelter, where | provided care, walks, and enrichment to the dogs there. I learned so much about dog/cat body language, care, health, training, and even went on to teach this to children at their educational summer camps! I'd love to be your dog's best friend and make sure they have a safe and amazing time with me while you're away! I currently have ample availability to take on new clients and provide consistent services! I'd love to help with dog walks, drop-ins, and any other care that you need! Typically the earliest I start is 9am and the latest around 8-9pm. Need a bit earlier/later? Reach out! I'd love to work with you! The safety of your pets is of outmost importance to me and I pride myself in providing a safe and appropriate environment at all times. When in a client's home, I'm always sure to be mindful and adhere to the instructions agreed on prior. Rest assured your pets will be treated just as they are when you're there...well, perhaps a bit more spoiled: P

About: I am an animal lover! I have grown up with dogs and taking care of other people's animals. I have a beagle and a Siberian husky that I adore and spend all of my free time with. My beagle's name is Ben and he is 7 years old. My husky's name is Bear and he is 4 years old. I have spent a lot of time over summers dog sitting where I spent the night in the homes and cared for the dogs throughout the day. I know how to get animals to listen and how to be patient when they are struggling to do this. I can be very flexible with bookings and am ready to provide the type of care that your pets may need.

About: I've been around animals since before I could walk, and have always had a way with them. My family and I lived in a trailer park when I was little. My mother always said from the moment I was born the animals flocked to me and there was no animal I couldn't get my hands on. My sister and I used to play with the stray cats outside of Grandpa's house. Pop would always mention how the cat we were holding would never let anyone close enough. Mom would often find "miss kitty in my crib with me. As I got older miss kitty passed away, but had left behind some kittens in her stead. Mom had decided to keep one and named him pudgy. He was a long hair black cat with the tiniest bit of white on his underbelly. I can remember running up and down the hallway and tap my shoulder as if trying to play tag with my sister and I. Pudgy and I had been the best of friends for about 18 years, till his passing. During the years he and I were together, he would often come running anytime he heard me sniffle or begin to cry. There were many other animals that we had over the years as well. Dogs, chickens, goats, rabbits, rodents, amphibians, horses they've been a vital part of my life. But no matter what I always come back to many best friend and the furry felines. If you're looking for a caring, detail oriented, and experienced fur sitter/walker, look no further. From feathered birds no bigger than your hand, to strong horses, I've handled just about anything. While I am new to this app, I am no stranger to animals. Wether they are young babies or older seniors, I would be more than happy to care for your pets. Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile, and I hope to hear from you soon. I am currently working on getting my EVOC certification for Royal Medical. I will not have my updated schedule until after March 29. When I watch pets I do generally have my 5 yo with me. Availability -pending I have a dog pen out back and a cable that we use with our dogs fairly frequently when the weather is nice. I also have a play pen that the pups play in.
