Dog Walking Windsor Farms

About: Hi! I’m Eliza, I recently finished grad school at VCU and am doing some freelance creative work currently, so I have a very flexible and available schedule to help with your pets! I've loved animals my whole life and have grown up with dogs. When I was younger, I helped raise and train one of our dogs from puppyhood, where I learned how to care for a dog's daily needs. Four years ago, I adopted my first cat, and caring for her has given me plenty of experience with feline care as well. Whether it's walking dogs, dropping in for feedings, playing with energetic pets, scooping litter and refreshing water, or just keeping pets company, I'll care for your animals as if they were my own. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I'm happy to adapt to whatever helps them feel comfortable and cared for. I am post grad school and currently doing freelance work from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible! I am very free in the afternoons typically. I will take extreme care in caution when in people’s homes. As someone who has used this as well for my own cat, I understand the fear with letting people in your home. I can assure you I will treat your home with the same respect I would want my own.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have always loved being around them. In February, I got my first puppy of my own, a large, high-energy breed, and have been raising and training him myself. That experience has taught me a lot about puppy care, leash walking, basic training, and handling energetic dogs. I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they get the care, attention, and exercise they need! I have just graduated college and will be starting my masters next month. This summer I am very flexible with time and spend most days with my puppy, or taking care of others! I have a very friendly dog that is 8 months old. He loves to play and go on many adventures. We are familiar with several nearby parks and trails for long walks!

About: Coming from a family with all sorts of animals and exotic pets, I feel comfortable caring for not just dogs and cats but your other loved ones too! I am patient and accommodating towards animals with special needs or for those requiring additional care outside of regular walks and feedings. I currently operate on a flexible schedule and am willing to accept last minute emergency visits or sittings if needed. I bartend some evenings but always do check ins before and after shifts! I currently live with a beagle who is crate-trained and we let her out in our backyard to use the bathroom. We monitor her closely as she is quick to eat anything in her sight. I am highly observant and able to make sure your pet does not get into trouble.

About: I moved to Richmond about a year ago, which meant leaving my two pups back home with their dad. As rural, born-and-bred dogs, city life just wasn’t the right fit for them. So now, I’m filling that gap by spending time with other people’s furry friends! I’ve become the go-to dog walker for my neighbors, and I genuinely love it—it gives me my weekly dose of wagging tails and happy walks. I’d love the chance to walk your dog and give them the care, attention, and exercise they deserve. Pet care is something I’ve naturally built into my weekly routine. Since moving to Richmond about a year ago and leaving my two dogs back home, I’ve really missed that daily connection with animals. Walking dogs has been the perfect way to stay active while still getting that time with furry companions. I regularly walk dogs for my neighbors, so I’m already used to planning my schedule around consistent walks and giving each dog dedicated attention. It’s something I genuinely look forward to each week—it doesn’t feel like a task, but more like a highlight of my day. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to fit walks into my routine in a way that works best for both you and your pup. I will provide attentive, personalized care based on each pets routine and personality, whether I’m in my client’s home or caring for them on a walk. I make sure every pet gets plenty of exercise, affection, and supervision, while sticking closely to any instructions the owner provides regarding feeding, leash use, or behavior preferences.

About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats since I was about 16 years old and have always had a pet of my own! I am very flexible with scheduling and am always looking to help out when I can. I do work full time, however my role is very flexible and fully remote! Therefore, I am able to fit work around pet care on most days! I do have a vehicle as well. I have a cat (a scardy cat), so am unable to board other cats or dogs at my apartment. However, happy to come to you for drop-ins or overnight stays.

“Mary came through in a pinch when I needed a last minute dog walker! I appreciate her quick response to my request and even timed the walk perfectly around the rain so that my guy would go outside! Thank you!”
