Part Time • $12 – 25/hr • Starts 01/23 • Richmond, VA
Hes a hyper 9 month (almost 10 mo) old, 70 lbs Collie named Pippin. He loves meeting new people and pups but as I mentioned, very hyper at first and tends to jump and get over excited. Both my partner and I work tight schedules during the day and don't have the ability to walk him midday which would be beneficial with how much energy he has. Hes friendly and has zero aggression and does overall very well on the leash.

Sitter Needed For 1 Dog In Henrico

One Time
My dog Jasper is 6 yo. He is a Chinese Crested breed and has some hair and some bald areas also. There's nothing wrong with him. That is his breed. Jasper does not like other dogs and he is very delicate. His little knees hurt some times so I carry him up stairs or help him go down them. We live in a house and there are some stairs. There's also a busy road right in front of the house. I rather Jasper be walked in the back yard and food and water be left out for him. He is only 11 pounds. He is very vocal so when you leave he will howl. I call it singing but you will hear it out on the street it's so loud. Jasper needs to walked twice a day. I am looking for someone to walk him twice on Tuesday and Wednesday. Also maybe hang with him a bit so he's not alone. Throw his little toys for fetch. Reliable, Mature, Responsible and Careful
