Dog Walking Yahley Mills Estates

About: I offer personalized, one-on-one care tailored to your dog’s unique needs, personality, and routine. With a focus on reliability and attentiveness, I make your dog’s comfort and daily schedule a priority. I strive to be a calm, loving presence your dog can trust, helping them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. As a full-time teacher, my weekdays follow a consistent and predictable schedule. I am available for afternoon visits after school, evening care, as well as overnight stays when needed. On weekends, holidays, and school breaks, I have more flexibility and can provide extended care, additional visits, or longer stays. This structure allows me to offer reliable, attentive pet care while maintaining clear communication and consistency for your pet. I care for pets with a focus on comfort, routine, and individual needs, whether in my home or in my client’s home. I follow each pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication, and I take time to learn their preferences and personality. In a client’s home, I respect their space while providing attentive, one-on-one care and keeping pets in a familiar environment. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and calm interactions, and I communicate regularly with updates so owners can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 14 years old. My neighbors have trusted me to watch their pets for extended periods of time. I love all animals! I work from home until the summer so my schedule is very flexible! I can walk your dog most of the day during the week. I provide loving, attentive, and responsible care for pets in my home and/or my client's home. I make sure each pet has fresh food and water, a clean and comfortable environment, regular exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, routines, and special needs. I also provide companionship, monitor their health and behavior, and keep owners updated with messages and photos so they have peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Great communication during the visit!”

About: I have had all sorts of animals throughout my life. I’ve never worked with dogs professionally but I’ve had multiple family dogs ranging from Chihuahuas to Pit bulls and I loved and cared for all of them. I currently have 2 Pit bulls that are loved and happy. I also often help pet sit in the neighborhood. During the school year I will be in class from 8 to 3 but after that I have plenty of time to walk and/or care for your pet. I have no other priorities so taking care of your fur baby will be my main focus. I am typically well liked by dogs and I am patient with dogs that are still in training so if needed I can go at your dogs pace making them more comfortable.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years—whether it’s my own pup, family, friends, or through Rover. Being a dog mom myself, I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your furry family member. I love giving dogs the attention they deserve, from belly rubs and playtime to nice walks and cozy snuggles. Every pup I watch is treated like my own, with plenty of love, care, and patience. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule! I have weekends off and get home from work early, which gives me plenty of time for walks, play, and snuggles. In my home, pets are treated like family! They’ll always have a comfy spot to relax, fresh water, regular meals, and lots of love. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with their favorite toys, and making sure they get plenty of snuggles and attention. I also have a friendly dog of my own who loves to play and keep other pups company, so your dog will always have a buddy by their side.

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown even more. Now that I have moved to Richmond, I'm missing my animals back home. I love making new pet buddies, and want to ensure they are as happy as can be. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family and friends' pets throughout high school. My dog back home has allergy issues that required medication everyday, so I have experienced in giving oral medication. I am currently an afternoon nanny for two girls and part time volleyball coach, so I will have plenty of time to be around for furry friends. I always give much love to the pets I care for. I understand that all pets are different and make sure to cater to their schedule.

About: Dogs have been a big part of my life for years, and I have 8 years of pet care experience. As a longtime dog owner, I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes and temperaments, and I know how important patience, consistency, and attention are to keeping them happy and safe. Whether your pup needs a walk, playtime, company while you’re away, or some extra TLC, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I’m excited to meet local pups and help give their people peace of mind! I have a flexible schedule and am looking forward to caring for pets in my local community. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting based on availability. I’m happy to communicate with you ahead of time to make sure your pet’s routine is maintained and their needs are met. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. I follow your care instructions closely, respect your home, and make sure pets have fresh water, a safe environment, and plenty of attention. I’ll keep you updated during visits and walks so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I always want you to feel comfortable trusting me with a member of your family.

About: Hi my name is Vinny. I’m currently a nursing student who also works in a pediatric hospital part time and I love it. I used to dog sit in high school and took care of couple of dogs and cats over the course of a year. During that time, I really learned to love learning new routines and understanding how to keep the pets I care for as healthy and happy as possible. What sets me apart is that I’m great with pets with anxiety and larger pets.I’m a bigger guy myself so I can handle pets of any size from pups all the way up to Mastiffs, Grey hounds and Bernese’s. This love of learning about each pets unique qualities is what gives me the tools I need to help mitigate anxiety in pets. I am very receptive to any teaching you might have about your pet. I have my own car that runs well and I am available for longer hours so scheduling around your needs is easy. I am willing to work with animals with all kinds of schedules. I already work 12 hour shifts caring for up to 28 patients at a time by myself and am ready to bring that same level of commitment to your home and pets. I always prioritize safety in my practice. I already work 12 hour shifts caring for up to 28 patients at a time by myself and am ready to bring that same level of commitment to your home and pets. I am ready to learn about how to care for your pets in your home to ensure their safety and mine.

About: I can’t recall a time in my life without pets. There was always at least one fluffy cat in the family, and I’ve spent at least a dozen years caring for dogs as well. I firmly believe that all animals have so much love to give and adventure to bring. I currently have a lot of weekday availability in my schedule. In the mornings, I go on walks anyways and can visit. The same goes for afternoons for the most part. In my client’s home, I will be cautious to keep doors and gates securely locked when letting an animal friend(s) outside and back in. I am sure to follow all given instructions to the T to ensure the safety and comfort of the animal friend(s).

About: I have taken care of pets from different backgrounds and families and am willing to adjust and accommodate to any environment that is needed for the pet I am able to work around pet parents schedules if given enough notice in advance, and I appreciate those willing to work with my own schedule as well. Ensuring safety, making sure all the pet’s needs are met, interacting with the right level of stimulation, not too much to overwhelm with a new face but just enough for the pet to feel safe to play

About: When I was younger I would naturally gravitate towards animals, if I was at someone’s house you’d find me hanging out with the dog or cat. Because of this I’ve always been trusted to care for them and have gained experience from a young age with many different pets with ranging needs and personalities. I personally have a three year old cat named Linus, he is extremely loving, playful, and screams at me every morning for breakfast. I often care for different pets and really enjoy giving them the attention they deserve. I’m currently doing online classes and have a very flexible schedule with my part-time job. I am open to working with anyone’s schedule and can do overnights any night. I will care for your pet as I would mine, with all precautions and care taken to ensure the safety of your pet or pets. I appreciate detailed instructions and if I’m unsure of anything I will ask.
