“Hillary was very communicative, flexible, and friendly. She was very attentive to our feeding/medicine instructions and communicated with me about what would be best. She did so much to help our dog, Marty, settle in. Marty came home happy and exhausted.”


“Bree was great with Winter! She sent all the pictures and was really responsive. I had some travel changes and she was very accommodating for picking Winter up at a different time. Will definitely use Bree again if I need a sitter in Charlottesville!”


“Penny is a wonderful dog sitter!! I brought my dog to her home for a couple of overnight stays. She was so kind and went above and beyond to help my dog feel comfortable.”


“Jesse was very friendly and asked great questions to make sure our dog would be well taken care of. He sent us pictures of our pup enjoying his stay which we really appreciated.”


“Svitlana really knows dogs. She walked my dog and sent pics and got to know her quirks quickly. Svitlana also continued with the same house rules we use at home. I will definitely have Pi stay with her again!”


“Jani and Paul are unbelievably the best home away from home. My dog loves going to their house and visiting with the other dogs. She has such a good time she can't wait to jump out of the car for her vacation with them. They treat her like one of their own, and it shows. We have used them several times, and they are great to work with. We won't leave our dog with anyone else. Knowing our dog is safe and loved is priceless.”


“Paula was awesome! We felt very confident with our decision and our pup was very comfortable with her and returned happy. She was also very flexible with our changing schedules. Highly recommend!”


“Nothing short of AMAZING!! Very accommodating and always takes great care of our sweet girl and provides updates throughout the day. We couldn’t be happier with services we received.”


“Hannah did an absolute stellar job. Of course she is almost overly qualified, and I had no reservations of leaving my cat in her care. She was very responsive and flexible, which made it so much easier! Can’t recommend enough.”


“Our family was going through a really tough time and Nadia came to our rescue! She treated our puppy like her baby and provided updates and pictures multiple times a day which made us feel so safe and secure. She even made scarves and necklaces for our sweet pup and made her feel like a princess. We had an issue come up where we needed to schedule extra days and she was so kind and accommodating. Our puppy was so sad to leave her. I’d recommend Nadia to anybody and everybody and I can’t wait to be able to book with her again in the future. She’s now my puppy’s godmother😅 and she’ll always be my go-to.”


“This was a first for us and our boy Cam. Deb and Ralph were the perfect people to have as our first pet sitter. After the settle in period between Cam and Deb and Ralph it seems like all went smooth. Deb sent us a few pics and kept us updated on how our boy was doing. They were a very nice couple with plenty of room for our active boy. We highly recommend using Deb and Ralph. We will be using them again. Thanks Rover.com for having a great site that we can use when we need a couple days of R&R and a quick get away. Thanks Deb and Ralph and Cam is looking forward to his next stay with y’all.”


“Our pups enjoyed their stay with Anne! It was easy to communicate with her and she sent lots of photos and updates. She took great care of them and we would use her again in the future. Thanks Anne!”

“I left my dog with Amy for a weekend, and even though Lana can be a little anxious at first, she fit right in with Amy and Sylvie. Amy provided frequent updates and pictures to reassure me Lana was doing well. It’s evident Amy truly cares for the dogs she watches. She also has a great space for the doggies to play.”


“Jackie was amazing when watching our dog for 2.5 weeks while we were out of the country. She had great communication and sent us pics throughout the time. Great location as well for dogs to stay! Our dog has 3 legs and Jackie had no issues watching our dog and was very accommodating with any special needs. Highly recommend Jackie!”


About: Ive grown up with animals and took an interest in training and sitting when I was around 10 years old. I have experience training and watching family dogs, reactive dogs, service dogs and puppies! I also have multiple animals of my own and am well versed in the different care that different species may need. When I am home, my attention is 100% on my animals. I do have a full time job in a neighboring city and am gone for normal work hours, but devote time and attention when I am home. In my own home, everybody has their own space. With dogs, cats and bunnies, each animal has the ability to socialize or spend time on their own in their space. Each animal has been trained to appropriately interact with each other.

“I cannot say enough GREAT things about Heather! She took better care of my dogs than I do! Every day she sent me photos of them going on hiking adventures, playing in creeks or playing with her kids. They had the best time ever! I’m sure they are bored now that I’m home again. Thank you So Much, Heather! ❤️❤️❤️”
