“I would definitely recommend Sheri for your pets. Both my dog and cat were at ease with her right away during our meet-and-greet and she took wonderful care of the cat while we were out of town. Sheri has that calm, confident demeanor that makes pets feel comfortable. I had complete confidence that everything would be fine while we were away. I will definitely call on Sheri in the future!”

About: As a passionate animal advocate, I've had the privilege of serving as the Foster Care Coordinator at the Gloucester-Mathews Humane Society for 1 year, while also volunteering with shelters throughout my adult life. Additionally, I'm a Certified Veterinarian Assistant, and my life's journey has been enriched by sharing it with diverse animals, from beloved domestic pets like dogs and cats, to hospice and senior animals. I'm committed to providing your cherished pets with the same love, care, and compassion that I've devoted to my own. I am thrilled to be available Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm. If you have a special request for different hours, I invite you to share your needs and I will eagerly discuss and arrange a solution that works for you. I will nurture your fur babies with the same love and devotion I would shower upon my own precious little ones. With my extensive shelter experience, I have been blessed to work with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, temperaments and life stages. I have had the joy of caring for rambunctious puppies and the privilege of providing comfort to senior dogs and cats.

About: Trustworthy and Caring Dog Sitter with Over a Decade of Personal Dog Ownership Experience. Thank you for considering me as your dog sitter. I look forward to providing a safe and trustworthy environment for your dog, filled with love, care, and endless belly rubs. I currently work outside the home full-time M-F with a lunch break at 1200 where I come home and walk my 12 year old dog. I have a fenced yard, a 12 year old Yorkie, and plenty of places for your pup to explore on walks. Your pup will be cared for as a member of the family.

“Avery was very attentive to my needs. I explained to her how much anxiety I had since previous pet sitters were not ideal. She reassured me through pictures and text messages on how my 2 cats were doing everytime she came to visit. Great communication, kind, and treated my cats like they were her own. Definitely will be rebooking! Thanks for everything!”


About: I’ve always loved animals, I have a 3 year old Australian Shepherd and he is my whole world. I will treat your fur baby with the love, care, and attention that I show my own fur baby. When I’m watching your pet, they will be safe, happy, and have the best time! I currently work full time, but I am available late evenings on week days and all day on most weekends. I am always happy to be flexible with my schedule. I live in an apartment so my dog gets plenty of walks, outdoor time, mental, and physical stimulation throughout the day. I provide a calming, safe environment in my home for my pup, and I bring that same calm and caring energy to every animal I meet.

About: As a military spouse, I understand how hard it is to find great care at an affordable rate and possibly the last minute. My goal is to provide love for your babies so that you may focus on whatever calls you away without any worries. I work remotely so any needs or schedules for your babies will be met promptly and to your liking. Please prepare a written list that I may follow. Things to expect when dropping off your babies: Your babies will be provided their own space within my sight at all times (until bedtime) and that space can be adjusted to fit their needs (bigger or smaller). They will be provided food, clean water, cuddles, and as much playtime as they need. If they have any special needs I will ask for written instructions and provide those needs as necessary. I can provide as much or as little communication as you prefer and make sure your babies are doing great while away.

About: i've taken care of dogs since I was 11 and I've had a cat for almost ten years now. I love spending time with all breeds! I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with, take care of, and love on your fur babies. I'll take care of your animals whichever way you see fit. I have a fenced in back yard and will crate them if you see fit.

About: I've loved animals since I was a kid and have cared for many throughout my life! I was tasked with raising my family dog since she was a puppy when I was in high school, and I helped my college roommate with her puppy! I have walked/boarded many dogs and cats since moving to Virginia! Being in the military, my coworkers travel a lot so I have become the workplace's go-to "pet auntie." I genuinely love to spoil pets and providing them with a safe and homey environment while their loved ones are out! I have a fairly flexible work schedule so I can come back to my home or to your home to take care of your pet! Early morning, lunch, and evenings are especially free, so I can work around that depending on your needs. I do not own pets, so they will be here as a single child in the case they are boarded! Crates, food, litter boxes, etc will need to be provided as I don't own those things. I have access to many parks around my neighborhood, so walkability is not an issue!

Elizabeth B.
“When you think “dog owner”, you should think Elizabeth. No one shows more dedication, all-encompassing love, concern, empathy, and zeal in not only her own beautiful Aussie puppy, but all dogs alike, than her. She cares deeply, loves fiercely, and is one of the most direct and respectful communicators I know. She will never let you down or leave you hanging. Thank you for everything Elizabeth!!!!”


Kacie R.
“Kacie is incredibly patient and caring with animals. She follows a structured schedule, which ensures pets are always cared for on time. Her attention to detail is unmatched she plans everything thoroughly, making sure each pet’s individual needs are met. I completely trust her with any pet, knowing she gives them love and consistency”


Trenton L.
“Trent is my son. He is a great dog dad to his dog Buster. He has also been a great “Bubba” (as all of our pets have called him lol) to our dogs Mylo (black lab-passed away in 2019), Sissy (mixed breed who came from the shelter-passed away in 2022) & Scruff (toy poodle who was a stray in our neighborhood-passed away in 2023) & our cat Lily (also a stray). Trent shows compassion for all animals but he always seemed to have a special place in his heart for Scruff, who was blind when we took him in. Trent was very patient with him, especially in Scruff’s later years when he needed to be carried a lot. My grandparents were animal lovers who worked for the SPCA in their day and their legacy of loving animals has definitely traveled down the family tree to their great grandson Trent. Trent has also recently walked 3 dogs for my friend while she was recuperating from an injury and I’m sure she would highly recommend him for this job. Trent is reliable and you won’t go wrong if you hire him.”


Yuna L.
“Yuna took care of my dog, Harley. She was great with him, was easily able to accommodate his feeding schedule and medical needs without any issue. She took him on walks with success and Harley still gets very excited to see her! I would trust her to watch Harley or either of any two cats anytime.”


Travis B.

“I needed drop-in visits for my cat and Travis did a great job! I recommend Travis. He is friendly, reliable, and obviously loves animals!”
