Pet Sitting in Charlottesville

“Amanda is amazing with my dog Camp. He is very well taken care of by her. She spends time walking and playing fetch with him. She is always on time also. I highly recommend her!”

“Katie is awesome!!! So responsive to questions and always sent great updates! I would definitely recommend!”

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

“I am lucky to have had Tabia look after my two kitties while I was out of town. She followed all my instructions and tips and sent me the very many daily photos I requested. Her love for cats and sweet nature was immediately evident during our meet and greet and even more so through her daily rover cards detailing her visits with the cats. I highly recommend her for any cat sitting needs and will hopefully be hiring her again if I need a cat sitter!”

“This was my first experience using Rover for my cat and I was very impressed by Carolyn. From our first interaction to final drop-in, she was extremely pleasant, prompt, and overall professional. Her drop-ins were at appropriate times (we agreed on a range of times that she should drop-in) and productive in that she took care of the food, water, litter box, and spent abundant time playing with our cat. She is also a fantastic photographer and sent exceptionally cute and high-quality pictures of our cat in action. And this was all at a competitive price! I recommend her services and hope she is free next time we are out of town!”

“Rebecca took great care of our cats and left our home cleaner than we left it! So nice, so professional, really helped us out in a pinch. Couldn't recommend her more highly!”

“Valerie was wonderful and was able to watch Willow during the day last minute for me. She sent photos and updates which I greatly appreciated and we’ll definitely use her again!”

“Repeat client of Rhiana! Great communication and pictures ❤️ we feel comfortable with her in our home and taking care of our furry family members”

“I had to call in a drop in visit super last minute and Victoria was so awesome about it! I could tell by the pictures that she sent that my pups just loved her and had a good time!”

“Morgan was awesome! I needed to hire someone last minute so I could go out of town for a funeral, and she was available, sent pictures, and went above and beyond to play with my dogs for awhile.”

“Samantha was amazing! She checked on our pup twice in a day and made sure to keep our pup happy & safe. She also sent lots of pictures which was so sweet to see. We ended up rebooking with Samantha because she is so reliable and our pup loved her. We would love to have Samantha watch our dog again in the future!”

“Very responsive and reliable. Definitely recommend!”

“Christian is the greatest! She is so intuitive and in tune with the needs of animals of all shapes and sizes. She takes such excellent care of my canine best friend, Otis, when I am away! I really trust her to keep an eye on my crazy puppy - and it's such a huge bonus that her dog, Leo, is such a wonderful companion for Otis (and I'm sure all other dogs in her care!). She has a great and safe fenced in yard with plenty of shade and lots of space to run, and she takes great long dog walks on the Rivanna River Trail. She's dropped in on Otis a few times in our home, and is super respectful and trustworthy of our space and is always great about sending photos of Otis having fun and letting me know when everything is all safe and locked up again. I would recommend her in a heartbeat - she's THE BEST.”

About: I have been trusted to care for dogs and all types of pets since childhood. I’m currently dog sitting an elderly dog that requires insulin injections with every meal, so I am comfortable administering any type of medication your pet requires. I worked on an horse farm for many years so caring for animals small to large from sunup to sundown is something I’m familiar with and truly enjoy. At the barn I averaged 12,000 steps a day so getting your dogs walked and exercised will be no problem. My schedule is free and wide open so whatever your pups needs I will be able to help. I love being outside and as I said I’m comfortable walking many miles a day. I have a well trained 5 year old Airedale terrier who I feed twice daily. We have a large fenced in back yard but I still walk him at leased 2 miles a day. Our neighborhood has direct access to the Rivanna trail so that is where we walk most days.

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience as a dog walker and pet care specialist, I understand the unique needs of each dog and the importance of their overall well-being. I have taken care of a large range of breeds and sizes so I am well versed in all varieties! Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks or prefers a leisurely stroll, I tailor my services to cater to their individual needs. I work M-F in varying amounts of from home working and in the office. I do have two dogs of my own that I take care of that obviously keep me nearby! As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have peace of mind when entrusting someone with the care of your beloved pet. You can count on me to be punctual, responsible, and attentive to your dog's needs. Seeing the wagging tails, bright eyes, and pure joy on the faces of the dogs I care for brings me immense happiness. I treat every dog as if they were my own, showering them with love, attention, and the care they deserve. Every dog is different and I will be happy to chat with you on what exactly your pet needs and prefers.

“I am so thankful for Hollister! I was so anxious to leave my puppy after his neuter, but he was in great hands. She took amazing care of him!”

“Lexi has watched my dog before and was a wonderful dog sitter. She is super caring and very reliable! I highly recommend Lexi as a dog sitter!”

“Julia was great. So sweet and kind to my kitty. She sent wonderful updates with lots of pics. I’m so glad I found her. Thank you Julia for taking such good care of Freyja while I was vacationing. I will definitely be a repeat customer”
