About: I have cared for dogs all my life. I successfully raised two dogs on my own. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to help with their dog care needs. I have just graduated from pharmacy school and am studying for my board exam. I am available weekdays and weekends all throughout the day, whatever your dog needs. I will maintain daily routines with feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, and play time. I will uphold safety protocols and will respect your household’s boundaries.
“Kendall is very attentive to my dogs. She arrives during the scheduled time and actively plays with my dogs - tossing a ball, giving love and belly rubs. She also reads their body language and notices when they are ready to go back in the house and she will hang out with them in the house till the scheduled end time.”
About: Born and raised with a love of all the furry friends! This is my full time thing and I care for horses too! I gained experience working with my mother who was a vet tech, breeder, trainer, and showed multiple breeds. Raised on a horse farm. My sister and cousin are also both vet techs that are close easy contacts if ever I have a need or question. I am detailed, organized and a patient Pet Sitter. My history, outgoing demeanor, time management skills, along with my love of animals, make me uniquely qualified to care for pets of all kinds. I currently have a dalmatian (my personal doggy assistant making all pups feel comfy) and a pug mix are unbelievably friendly to all animals and humans alike. I care for pets in all age ranges and breeds from Great Danes to Pomeranians. I'm experienced with even the high energy or "difficult" pups and provide them with a safe environment to learn good manners, develop social skills, and have the opportunity to get out all their energy. Your pups don't just get care but I work with all the pups whether its leash training, fence reactivity, potty training, and/or basic commands. Depending on the pup I can provide baths and/or nail trimming but top notch grooming care I highly recommend Bark and Beyond! Christine is the best! I am home full time. I am very flexible with drop in/off times, meet and greets, and readily available to whatever your specific pet needs may be. I provide it all so no sweating over the details. Toys, crates, dog beds, bowls of all kinds, a splash pad, seperate spaces if needed, puppy only zone, and lots of love is all included. I have an ENORMOUS fenced in yard and a doggy door so the pups get to come and go from the house to the yard as the please. Plus with 2 fur babies of my own to keep your pup company. Both get along fantastically with new animal and human friends! I am open to potty training, and crating if needed.
About: Working at a Veterinary Hospital before going to college absolutely solidified my love for animals and caring for them! I love learning their unique traits and I can’t wait to bond with your pets! I’m currently a full time student at JMU but I’m looking to add pet sitting into my routine! With warm weather coming up, I know how important it is to find a reliable sitter for vacations! I can’t wait to meet your pets! Caring for your pets in the safety of your home is important to me! Allowing them to show me around and playing with their favorite toys is so exciting!
About: Surrounded by dogs my whole life, I’ve always connected deeply with anything furry. If I could play with dogs all day for the rest of my life, I will find a way. I’m a student who likes animals more than people. My schedule is pretty flexible. I would love pop in visits or walks with your pup of any breed. I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for about 5 years and if I win the lottery I’m adopting 200 dogs from every shelter within a 50 mile radius. Skills would include the ability to connect with dogs, play for hours, snuggle and give medicine when needed. Im also great with cats, plants, chickens, and ducks! Im available during holidays. Nature is a big part of my life so taking your doggie outdoors would benefit the both of us! Currently, I am working online so my schedule is flexible and I should be available to accommodate your needs! Located primarily in the southern end, the closer you are to me, the more flexible I can be. With a calm approach, I always take the animals safety and well-being first. Ensuring their comfort with me above all, I can meet any particular need your pet may have.
“Bryan was great with my dogs during their walks. He was reliable, on time, and easy to communicate with. My dogs came back happy and well exercised, and it was clear they were comfortable with him. This guy doesn’t miss. I’d definitely use Bryan again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.”
About: I have grown up with having dogs as pets my whole life. I grew up on a farm so I have experience in caring for livestock as well. I have a very flexible schedule this summer including weekdays and weekends as I am home from college for summer break. Please feel free to reach out! I have been around many types of dogs so I have experience with all types. Based on what the owner wants to be done/ the dogs needs I’m happy to help.
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have cared for pets of my own/family owned pets since I was a teenager, including turtles, cats, dogs, hamsters, and even rats. I attempted fostering dogs but fell in love with my first foster and ended up adopting him 🤣❤️🐶 I’ve had experience caring for animals of all ages, from young to old, tiny to large. Love them all! Taking shelter dogs for a “dogs day out” has been one of my favorite activities recently. This activity allows me to take a dog from BARCS out for the day hiking, socializing, and getting them seen by possible adopters! Recently gained experience caring for dogs with medical conditions, including diet restrictions, medication administration, and managing feeding tubes. I’m currently working as a RN 3days a week. I only schedule services on days that I am not working in order to devote all my time and attention to your pets I have experience caring for older and younger pets, medication administration, separation anxiety, high to low energy pets. My basic philosophy is to treat every pet the way I would want my own treated!
About: Hi! My name is Julia, and I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I have owned both dogs and cats since I was a child, so caring for pets has always been a natural and important part of my life. I have several years of experience with dog sitting and house sitting, and I understand how important it is to know your pets and home are in caring, trustworthy hands. I love all pets and enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm companion nearby, I will make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you are away. I am dependable, attentive, and respectful of each family’s home and pet care preferences. I would be happy to care for your furry family member and give them the same love and attention I would give my own pets! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I’m used to planning my day around feeding times, walks, playtime, litter box care, check-ins, and making sure pets feel comfortable and safe. I enjoy having pets as part of my routine, whether that means starting the day with a walk, stopping by for a midday visit, or spending quiet time with a cat who just wants company nearby. I’m dependable and flexible, and I understand that pets do best when their normal schedule is followed as closely as possible. I’m happy to adjust my routine to match each pet’s needs, whether they need extra attention, medication reminders, playtime, or just someone calm and caring to keep them company while their family is away. I care for pets with patience, respect, and attention to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, medications or special needs, favorite toys, and any house rules. I know pets feel safest when things stay familiar, so I do my best to keep their routine calm and consistent while their family is away. I also treat every home with care and respect. I make sure doors are locked, food and water are refreshed, litter boxes or pet areas are kept clean, and pets are safe before I leave. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, comfort level, and personality, whether they are playful, shy, energetic, independent, or need a little extra reassurance. My goal is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and for owners to feel confident knowing their pets and home are in trustworthy hands.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs for most of my life, and have done some dogsitting and dog walking before. I’ll admit it’s been a bit since I had to focus on school work for my psych degree, but now that I have to wait till fall for grad school, I figured now is the time to help out some furry friends! I’m an animal lover at heart and am not only interested in, but willing to help with any accommodations! Our pets deserve the best after all! :) I only have class on Monday afternoons, but sadly the rest of my schedule is pretty up in the air right now. I tend to be more of a night owl so I can help cats when they’re more active at night. I tend to work best with detailed instructions. I don’t want to disturb any routine and want the animal to feel as comfortable as possible.
About: I’ve always owned lots of pets. Currently own 4 dogs. I love animals of all kinds. I work full time and am only available afternoon/evenings and weekends. Looking for evening and weekend dog walking or dog sitting. I work full time during the day depending on location I could possibly do drop ins during the day.

About: Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and also was a trainer for the seeing eye before! We are a very active family so lots of playing and walks will be had! I have a puppy of my own that I am training so your baby will always have a friend! Look forward to meeting you and your fur baby I’m a stay at home mom so I will be home full-time minus errand running here or there so you can expect your fur baby to be fully enriched with constant company! We will play outside, go on trips and of course walks including hikes if you are comfortable with that! I also have a puppy so they will have a built in bestie!
About: I love all animals. I think they are truly such gifts to the world. My experience ranges from puppies and kittens to more senior dogs. One of my regular clients has a dog that requires a little more TLC as he has thyroid and eye issues that require specific medication. I like to ensure all animals are well-loved, cared for, and have all of their needs met. I'm currently a freelancer that can work from anywhere, so I have tons of free time to ensure all pets are well-loved and cared for! I like to thoroughly discuss with my clients what their normal routine with their pets are. Are they allowed on the couch? How often do you go on walks? Dietary restrictions? How often are they fed and how much? Any medications I need to account for? Vet information for emergencies? Etc. Once I've taken all of that information into account, I'll apply all of it during my time with the pets and also supply them with all of the love and attention they could possibly need.
“Tracie is amazing. She has saved the day for me a few times already with last minute walks. She is wonderful with my dogs and always takes lots of pictures and gives them lots of love and attention!”
“Mya is fantastic! Was very flexible with our last minute needs. Great with my two rambunctious dogs and always timely. Definitely going to book again and would recommend to anyone reading!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for years. I have a dog and 2 cats . I love them a lot and they are my family. I am their voice and I believe in taking care of them. I have taken care of animals since 15 years old. I work full time but I have time between 10 am and 1pm. I don’t work weekends and i love taking dogs to the park and walking them.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
