“Our dogs were so happy and TIRED when they came home! I think they really lived spending time with Verlee and her family! They had lots of space to run and play and met so many new friends!! We will gladly drive the extra miles to have them stay again!”

“We had such a great experience with this couple watching Kuna! From the start, they made us feel completely comfortable and at ease. They sent lots of pictures and updates, which really helped reassure us that Kuna was happy, safe, and well cared for. It was clear he was loved and treated like part of their family. We truly appreciated the communication and attention they gave him. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy sitters!”

“Adam was an EXCELLECT sitter! You can tell he has the patience and passion to engage positively with your dog!!! Great customer service and communication! Would rebook again!”

“Sabrina and her family are fabulous. Both of my dogs enjoyed their stay. When I went to pick them up, both of my dogs were excited to see me, and the one went right back up to their porch! I'd say he loved it!”

“These lovely sitters have a special place in our hearts. They truly seem to be a second family to our precious Mae. Highly recommend above all if the other boarders we’ve used through Rover and other means of securing a pet sitter.”

“Our three dogs had a wonderful time at Radka's and Jim's home. They stayed 3 days and 2 nights. I could tell they were happy and well-loved from the many photos Radka sent us during their stay. We are thrilled with this experience and plan to book with them again next time we have to be out of town.”

“Julie was great! She was able to board our dog last minute and had a bunch of items on hand so we didn't have to bring a ton. She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures. She also gave some good advice afterwards to help with boarding next time”

“Elaine and Steven are very kind! Winnie enjoyed her time with them. Elaine sent us pictures and a video. It was so nice to know she was so well taken care of.”

“Marvin was an amazing sitter for Kuna! He kept me consistently updated with messages and photos, which really gave me peace of mind while I was away. Kuna was well cared for and happy, and it was clear he was comfortable the entire time. I truly appreciated the communication and attention Marvin provided. I would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Gulmira was so great with our shy girl Sophie! She sent plenty of updates and was very communicative, helping us feel very comfortable leaving Sophie there for the first time! It’s clear Sophie was loved so much while she was there too and she was also exercised very well, got plenty of walks and time to explore, and made some doggy friends along the way. We are so pleased with the stay and could not recommend Gulmira more! She’s definitely a great choice if you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and is kind and patient with animals.”

“Kayce kept my 2 dogs for about 5 days! They have a great fenced in yard and dog kennels which is nice. As I did not need to bring a kennel for my smaller dog. It was a cold, muddy weekend and my pups came back clean, tired and happy. Her dog Bebop is such a cutie!”


About: Hi! My husband and I own a farm in Amelia, VA with horses, sheep, chickens, and our cats and dogs. I have two rescue dogs of my own and am a complete animal lover. I work in the agriculture sector with a flexible schedule and my husband works from home full time. My schedule allows me to be home with your pets as often as they need. I have been house sitting for over 15 years and absolutely love being able to love other people’s pets like my own! My house also has a fenced in yard, and is great if your pets want to come stay with me as well. I have experience with dogs, cats, most exotic pets, horses, and any barnyard animal you could think of. We are also very experienced in senior care, and often foster for our local shelter so are used to a lot of different behaviors and dog personalities. I am available for pet sitting and farm sitting. I am looking forward to hearing from you! I have a flexible work schedule and my office is less than a mile from my home, so I can stop in often. My husband is also very experienced in animal care and works from home full time. Our dogs spend most of their day snoozing with my husband while he works. They go on 3-4 walks per day and have a fenced yard to run around. Guest dogs are treated like our own! Drop in clients can expect their dogs to be loved on and cared for as desired for 30-60 minutes per drop in.

“Colleen! I can’t say enough about how wonderful she’s been to our sweet playful boys. Her patience was displayed when I dropped my puppy off to her a few months ago. I told my husband, her warm calm energy made me feel so comfortable with leaving my puppy with her. She always sent pics and kept us abreast of their day. She also learned their personality and behaviors quickly. If you are looking for someone who’s going to take your dogs on walks and spend time with them, then you’ll be extremely pleased with her service. Our dogs are apart of the family, so I look for dog sitters who are attentive, loving and patient. We appreciate you! 🐶”

“I recently used the Valerie to watch our pup and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Valerie was incredibly attentive to my dog's needs and provided a loving and safe environment. Communication was top-notch with regular updates and adorable pictures to ease my worries. My pup was well taken care of and I felt completely at ease during her first time away. I highly recommend Valerie caring for your dog for her professionalism and genuine care for pets."”

“Our dog Megumi had a phenomenal time at Cailey's! Cailey was easy to communicate with, both for planning our dog's stay and for keeping us up-to-date during the stay. She took excellent care of Megumi, and our Velcro dog was so cozy and at ease when it came time for pick-up that I think she wouldn't have minded even more time hanging out there lol. 10/10; recommend without reservations and would now consider her our go-to anytime the grandparents can't dogsit their granddog.”
