During July 4th, we planned on going out of town for the weekend. We were impressed with Julie's rover profile and decided to contact her. We were able to meet up with her twice, once so that she could see our dog, and the second time so that Mozzie could check out her place. This was the first time since adopting him over a year ago that were had ever boarded him somewhere, so we were understandably nervous about it, but Julie proved to be a great sitter. She sent us status updates and pictures while we were away, so that we could know what Mozzie was up to. When we came to pick him up, she also helped us with tips and ideas on how to help Mozzie socialize with other dogs. We could definitely tell that Mozzie was in good hands. Definitely recommended!

Cyndi is such a gem. Fred loves his time with Cyndi and it is clear she truly loves dogs. It is so nice to come home from a trip to a happy , relaxed dog that enjoyed his time away as much as we enjoyed ours.

Matt was absolutely wonderful our Dalmatian, Juniper! He was also so accommodating when our flight home was cancelled resulting in us picking her up a couple hours later than originally scheduled. I would highly recommend him if you ever need a sitter for your dog, and would not hesitate to book with him in the future.

I can never say enough about about her wonderful services. My dog is older and has some special abilities that need to be tended to. She has dogs herself that are gentle and playful that supplies my dog with a plenty of playmates. She also never kenneled my dog which was a big worry for me. Time and time again I would never choose anyone else to take care of my sweet boy.

Above and beyond care for Princess! This sitter didn’t just watch our fur baby; they truly cared for her. Every detail was handled with so much compassion, and it showed in how calm and content Princess was when we returned. Our sweet Princess was treated like family. We received thoughtful updates and photos and videos that reassured us every day. Exceptional care for our sweet Princess. Reliable, kind, and very attentive. Knowing she was safe and happy gave us total peace of mind. An absolutely wonderful experience overall! She was punctual, communicative, and incredibly kind with our pet. It’s such a relief knowing your furry family member is in safe and loving hands. We will definitely book again. A wonderful experience from start to finish. Highly Recommend!!

Julie and her husband were so amazing with my pup, Ziggy. We had just moved to the area and were nervous about having leaving him in a new place so soon, but Julie’s kind nature and love for dogs put our mind at ease! Ziggy loved having their pup Heidi to play with as well! We feel lucky to have found Julie here in RVA. Thank you for taking such amazing care of our baby! ?

Elana was wonderful and we are so lucky she was able to help us with a last minute holiday boarding for our older dog! She went above and beyond to make sure our dog was comfortable and happy and even shared her own dog's new toys with our dog on Christmas so that he would be happy and less anxious. She was extremely communicative and asked good questions beforehand that we appreciated since it was clear she had been around dogs a lot and knew how to keep them safe, happy, and well cared for. She sent us regular updates and pictures and even accommodated a last minute request to extend the stay a day longer. Would recommend.
