Pet Sitting in Charlottesville

“Amanda's terrific! I'm a repeat booker, and try to book Amanda each time I go out of town. I have an elderly dog with digestive issues who needs meds and lots of love, and Amanda's great with her. Highly recommend!”

“Carolyn checked on our two kitties over the holidays and was great! She was thorough, communicative, and friendly. Felt like my cats were given great care and attention, definitely recommend!”

“Such an awesome sitter for Toffee today. We were nervous leaving him for the whole day for a trip but Stevie was amazing. Updated us, kept him to his schedule and even sent pictures at every check-in. Very sweet. Definitely our new favorite person for Toffee while we are away. Was willing to do a meet and greet prior to be the perfect fit for Toffee. Thanks for making our trip easier.”

“Nathan was great with sunshine! He was communicative and timely! Definitely recommend :)”

“My animals were instantly comfortable with Morgan, including my geriatric dog who tends to take time to warm up to new people. I’m so grateful for her wonderful service!”

“Kassie is always amazing with my shy, difficult puppy!”

“I highly recommend Sara as a pet caregiver. She took excellent care of my cat, Harley, while I was away on vacation. Sara's responsible and loving nature truly showed in the way she tended to Harley's needs. I couldn't have asked for a better caretaker, and I would rate her job a solid 5 stars. If you're looking for someone who genuinely loves animals and will treat your pet like family, Sara is the perfect choice!,”

“Katie was the perfect sitter for my cats. I’m new in town, and i could tell i could trust her the minute she walked in to my house. My boys loved her, and I knew they were in great hands. And she was very patient with their needy mother 🤪 thank you, Katie!”

“Second time that Carolyn comes to catsit Kenny, and we can't be any happier. Everything is perfect with Carolyn. That's why kenny loves her and why we can chill out knowing he is in such good hands. 100% recommendable! Thanks for being our trip saviour, Carolyn!”

About: I have raised multiple dogs from birth to adulthood and am experienced with reward-based training methods (rather than punishment-based). I have cared for dogs with special needs and during injury/illness recovery. I'm an active person and happy to help your dog be active as well! I work from home and have a semi-flexible schedule. Because of this I can usually accomodate for any time needed with enough notice (at least one day). I am happy to work with any special routines or accomodations you may require. I have experience with special needs dogs, medication management, dietary restrictions, and mobility issues. With my background in biomedical sciences, you can trust that your pet is safe and in good hands.

“Amaris has watched my dog, Moose, many times over there last several years. She cares for Moose like she is her own and is incredibly responsive and responsible. Moose is more excited to see Amaris than anyone else I know, including myself! Moose has both stayed with Amaris and Amaris has watched Moose at our home. Every time has been a great experience and we feel peace of mind knowing Amaris is watching her when we're out of town.”
