“Samantha watched my dog Howard for a day and she sent me pics and updates that he was doing well during his visit. He's nervous with new people, but warmed up to Samantha and her family well so I would definitely use her services again!”


“JoJo had a blast with Emiliy. She sent lots of pictures to this nervous dog mom. JoJo cried when she left so she defiently enjoyed herself! JoJo is still very needy as a puppy and you can tell she was well loved!”


“Our previous sitter told me they are moving, which prompted me to search for a new sitter. I decided to try Rebecca, and am I glad I did! I was happy with our first sitter, but LuLu spent her time there just sniffing their yard and snuggling up on the couch with the sitter. She barely ate and wouldn't play with their dog. It was such a delight to see how happy LuLu was at Rebecca's place. She ran around the yard like I haven't seen her do since she was a puppy. When Rebecca thought LuLu needed a rest and brought her inside, LuLu whined to go back out, so out she went for more running around! Finally, she took a nap on the couch, then got up and ate all of her dinner. Then she settled down chewing on her toy until we came back for her. She was happy to see us, but gave Rebecca a tail wag when they said goodbye. I'm so glad LuLu found a place where she can thrive when we're gone. Now I won't hesitate to book a vacation! Rebecca was very attentive to the history I gave her about LuLu and my instructions about her routine and fears. We did a Meet & Greet on short notice, and Rebecca showed LuLu and me her back yard and inside her house. She assured me that she would never give LuLu an opportunity to run away. The way Rebecca gave me updates all day long assured me that LuLu was being well cared for and was having a great time. Rebecca is definitely Lulu's new sitter. I couldn't be happier with her care.”

About: I have 2 dogs and 1 cat at our beautiful home in VA. They have all of my attention as a child would. I treat other people’s fur babies like they are my own. I believe I can do great in an environment surrounded by what I love most, which is why I chose to care for animals full time. I have an open schedule that will most likely meet your needs so I can give your fur baby my full and uninterrupted attention. I love soaking up the sun so we will get plenty of outside time instead of sitting inside all day. I have a big fenced in yard and 2 of my own doggos to help keep yours (if boarding in my home) happy and full of energy. If I am checking on your fur baby in your home, I’ll do what I can to make sure they’re happy when I visit and well taken care of while you are gone.

“This is how my story started......I was in Roanoke for the Nomad convention at the Sheraton. It is dog friendly & I have my baby w me... she has always traveled well.. but she is now older & she is having separation anxiety when I leave the room! She barks & wont stop! She is a tri color chihuahua ! I can't leave the room & I can't take her to the car show because of the heat! I have never left her .. a bit nervous about doing so.. but thought I would search for Dog Care in area! My story ends in a meet & greet that started a new friendship! Paula was so comforting and reassuring that I wanted to stay with her! I had never left Mia w anyone before! Paula sent me pictures & text about Mia, including one where Mia was a bed hog!
