Local know-how pays off in Norfolk
Norfolk has a humid subtropical climate, so June through September brings hot, sticky afternoons and frequent thunderstorms, and the coast sits inside the Atlantic hurricane season with tidal flooding on king-tide days. Sitters walk early or after sunset in high summer, keep leashes short during storm surge and street flooding, and carry towels for wet coats.
When demand peaks
Demand spikes around Navy deployments and shipyard rotations tied to Naval Station Norfolk, plus the Old Dominion University and Norfolk State University calendars and the summer beach and cruise-terminal travel season. Boarding and house sitting lead when sailors deploy or families travel, while dog walking and drop-in visits stay steady for downtown commuters and campus staff.
Know your Norfolk areas
Most cat bookings cluster Ghent to Ocean View. Owners book the sitter who can reach them quickly for a daily visit, so the areas you list matter more than the distance you are willing to travel.

Virginia does not require a state pet-sitter or dog-walker license. Operating in Norfolk calls for a city business license, and Norfolk's ordinance prohibits dogs from running at large off their owner's property, so walkers keep dogs leashed on the Elizabeth River Trail and in city parks; there is no set cap on the number of dogs walked at once. Report self-employment income on Schedule C against the platform's 1099.
