About: I was raised in a family of animal lovers and helped to care for at least one family pup at all times. From my grandma's cat filled house to my own dogs, I have always been surrounded by a variety of furry friends so I'm very comfortable and experienced with caring for them. I began pet-sitting for neighbors as soon as I got into high school, and I'm very excited to meet some new furry friends! As a second year student at the University of Virginia, I've got a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care! My classes are mostly in the mornings, so I'm available for dog-sitting in the afternoons and evenings. Weekends are completely free for me, which means I can provide consistent and attentive care for your furry friends, ensuring they get plenty of playtime, walks, and attention while you're away! Since I live in an apartment that doesn't allow animals, I don't offer in-home pet care services. Instead, I provide dedicated pet care at your convenience! I will make sure your pet feels comfortable and happy during our time together. I also maintain a flexible schedule to accommodate your needs, ensuring your furry friend receives the best care possible in a familiar environment. Your pet's well-being is my top priority!

“Candice is great! My dog is a jerk and has to be kept away from people other than me for awhile, but I am very sad to lose Candice. She’s reliable, responsible and great with my pooch. I’ll miss her.”


“Dakota connects well with our dog Patrick and is able to re-direct him when he wants to just turn around and come home. Our pup can be just one small ball of over excitement and exuberance and they handle that well. Dakota has been very reliable and always lets me know if he needs to adjust the time a bit.”


“Winnie loves her walks with Amanda! Amanda has been wonderful, great communication and always shares cute pictures. She’s been able to adjust schedule as needed. Highly recommend!”


“Hannah is trustworthy, responsible and caring, and I feel lucky to have found her on here! She was able to give my dog a same day last minute walk with no prior introduction and my dog loved her! She is great at communicating and she took care of my dog as if she was her own which I appreciate so much and is really hard to find! Highly recommend her as a dog walker or sitter!”


About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and can’t imagine a home without them! From raising my own family pets to caring for dogs of all ages, whether it’s energetic puppies just weeks old or gentle seniors needing extra love. I bring years of experience and genuine care to every dog I meet. Over the past 8 years, I’ve had the joy of watching dogs for friends, neighbors, and family, and I treat every pup like they’re my own. Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and it brings me so much happiness to care for them and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m currently in grad school at UVA with classes only two days a week, and even then, they’re never longer than a few hours at a time. This means I’m available every day and can easily build pet care into my daily routine. Whether it’s morning walks, midday drop-ins, or overnight stays, I have the flexibility to provide consistent and attentive care. I care for pets by giving them lots of attention, love, and activity. Whether I’m in my home or the client’s, I make sure pets get plenty of time to play, go on walks, or just hang out and relax depending on what they need. I try to stick to their normal routine as much as possible, like feeding times and bathroom breaks, and I always make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Staying active with them through walks, fetch, or just playing around, is one of the main ways I show care and build trust.

About: I have provided care for many pets from my former teachers, neighbors, family and word of mouth. Both my pets have lived to be seniors and watched senior pets as well. I worked at an animal hospital for about 2 years before moving to this area. I am familiar with giving medications and following instructions on feeding due to allergies and stomach concerns in dogs. I am experienced with reactive dogs and protective dogs when entering the home. I am mostly able to do daily check ins in morning-midday. My work schedule varies, so just ask I can try to work something out! I will meet or chat with you prior to meeting your pup or cat and learn there favorite snacks, toys and walk routes. I want then to be comfortable with me.

“Allison has been awesome for us. I sometimes have to travel for work and it is a huge help to our family to have someone trusted that can walk our dog. We have re-booked with her already and will look to see if she can help out with our cat when we are out for vacation.”


About: I’ve lived on a farm my entire life and taken care of pets and animals of all types from a young age! I have a flexible, work schedule and always love spending time with four-legged friends! I provide loving, attentive care to animals of all shaped and sizes and i'm committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away! I am reliable, detail-oriented, and respectful of your home and your pet’s space. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pets are happy and well looked after. I work full time but have a very flexible work schedule and can make caring for your pet a priority in my day to day schedule! I am very comfortable playing with your pets outdoors or taking them on long leashed walks to get some activity for the day! I mostly enjoy tailoring each experience to the pet and owners needs!

About: Experienced dog lover with years of caring for all breeds—dedicated to keeping pups happy, healthy, and loved. I am willing to take of all of your pets needs. From bathing to feeding and walking I can do it all. I am currently in my 4th year of medical school. I plan to apply to residency this year. Given that it is my fourth year I have plenty of free time and I would love to spend it with your pet. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment tailored to each pet's needs—whether in my home or the client’s. I follow their routine, offer plenty of playtime, walks, feeding, and cuddles, ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away!

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, from small breeds to large, so I’m comfortable caring for pups of all sizes and personalities. I currently have an 11-month-old black Lab that I adopted from the Charlottesville SPCA, and together we’ve completed puppy training and loose-leash walking. My experience with training, combined with my lifelong love for dogs, means I’m patient, attentive, and ready to meet your pet’s needs. I have a flexible schedule, so I can easily work around your routine to provide reliable, personalized care for your pup! I’m currently working part time, so I have lots of extra time in my schedule to give your pup the love and attention they need! Again, my work schedule is pretty flexible, so I can find times throughout the day/week/weekend that work the best for you! In my home I have an extremely friendly and energetic 11 month old black lab, who would love to be your dog’s play mate. I also have a size large crate available if that is something your dog requires. Normally, my dog and I go out for 3 or 4 30ish minute walks a day, accompanied by lots of fetch and tug, and on weekends love going on longer hikes!

About: Animal care is my career, not my hobby or source of extra income. I have experience house-sitting and providing in-home care for pets as well as experience working in shelters, kennels, and boarding facilities. I am experienced with medication administration including injectable medications. I am comfortable working with reactive cats and dogs. Please contact me about a free meet and greet in your home -- I would love to meet your pet! Pet care comes first always! My own pup goes out 3x per day so I generally like to be able to leave a dog alone for up to 2 hours so I can go home and let my pup out but my fiancee can usually help out and we might be able to make something work if you need me to be with your dog all the time. It would require a higher fee because I wouldn't be able to accept other bookings during that time. At this point in time I do not offer to care for pets in my home. All drop-in visits will take place at the client's home.

About: Hello! I love all dogs and cats. I grew up with a ton of pets and love to help neighbors to take care of theirs. I work a remote job Monday through Thursday so I am flexible to do home visits or have pets stay with me! I do have a cat so boarding may be dependent on your pet! I like received specific instructions on how to best care for your pet so they stay in the same routine and have little stress without you.

About: I’ve loved animals since before I could walk and I’ve spent a lifetime caring for them. Having worked for the CASPCA I gained a tremendous amount of knowledge about what it means for our pets to truly thrive and what they need to lead happy healthy lives. Our family treats your pet like they’re our own and make him/her feel right at home. They will spend their days with tons of enrichment activities; daily walks, tons of play time and endless snuggles if they’ll let me and so much more. This is my passion, loving animals and helping people. What more could you ask for? I would absolutely love a chance to chat with you and answer any questions you have. I’m a stay at home mom and have plenty of time to care for your pets during the day/at night just as you would if you were home! I can adjust our schedule to fit your pets needs so they feel right at home and stay on routine. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for your furry friend to play and two active pups who love a play date with friends. All interactions with your pets and ours will be closely monitored to ensure everyone’s safety. I will get information from you about your preferences and schedule for your pet so I can mirror that while they are staying in our home. I will do everything possible to make your pet happy and comfortable while you are away!

About: I've had dogs my whole life, 6 in total! I currently have a Great Dane/lab mix who is a rescue. We can walk or run your neighborhood or go to a park! We can play fetch in the yard on the nice days or play inside the house on days it's too hot or raining. I can give medicines that are routine or special occurances. I can clean up any accidents left behind so you come home to a clean house after your day at work or away. I can help with training to solidify any tricks or behaviors you're trying to accomplish with your dog! I'll be sure to show your fur baby the same level of love and attention as if they were my own! I work night shift, so I am used to weird hours if needed! I am a runner so I can take your dog with me if they need a little extra exercise! I will treat your dog like they are my own! I will gladly give treats, meals, extra potty breaks, walks, runs, whatever is needed for your pet!

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 14, living with them longer. I also currently live on a farm and have good hands when it comes to working with animals! I’m a college student, home for holidays, and sometimes weekends! I have an open schedule most holidays and can come home over a weekend if needed! A safe, leash-controlled environment ensures pets enjoy outdoor activities responsibly, with supervised play, regular walks, and plenty of attention, prioritizing their comfort, health, and safety.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life and all other farm animals. I worked at hunt kennels with 60-70 hounds everyday, vet tech, brought along young puppy’s, I’ve done it all, I’m a very active person and enjoy just getting out with dogs. Please feel free to message me if you would want to know more! I work in the evenings, so would love to fill my mornings up more but have a very flexible schedule to meet house sitting needs Whatever is asked of me and how they like to do things is exactly how I’m going too. I want the animal to still feel comfortable in its own home while parents are away.

Emily S.
“Emily has done an amazing job taking care of our dog and cats. She has been extremely attentive to everything they need, and she has gone above and beyond in every respect. Outside of Rover, Emily has worked in vets, shelters, and kennels, and the experience shows! She is comfortable administering medication to our pets and dealing with any other tasks we need on top of standard walks, feeding, etc. Most importantly, our pets are completely at ease with Emily. She has a great disposition with them, and our dog and cats absolutely love her. I cannot recommend her services strongly enough, whether you need her for an occasional dog walk, pet sitting, or any other pet care. You will feel comfortable knowing your pets are in the hands of a truly professional caretaker.”


Haley H.
“Haley loves all animals and is an excellent caretaker. She will show the animals under her care an abundance of love and they will be well taken care of.”


Tamara T.
“I worked with Tam at the SPCA. She had so many great qualities. Showed up to work on time, always volunteered for extra events, and took the best care of the animals. Her goal was to make their lives better and she did everything in her power to make it happen. At the SPCA we qualify dogs in multiple levels from low to high risk. Almost no one in the building would assist high risk animals but Tamara did. Somehow she managed to find the good in them. One moment we had dogs who couldn't leave their cage because of their threat, next she was walking them and I've never seen a happier dog. It was baffling but very impressive. She is one of those "dog whisperers" you hear about. She knows what to do, how to do it and when to do it.”

She doesn’t just feed them and walk for potty breaks, she truly engages with the dogs by petting and playing with them. I can count on Tori to make sure my furbabies are well cared for when I’m away from home.”
