Doggy Day Care in Downtown, Charlottesville, VA

“Bertie was amazing! It was my first time using Rover as a pet owner, and I needed a sitter for the day while on vacation. My puppy is still fairly young and is very attached to me, but she appeared to settle in pretty quickly and have a great time with some other pups. Bertie stayed in touch while I was out, sending pics and updates, and even recommended some great local spots to check out. Super happy with this experience!”

“Athena had another amazing time with Svitlana at her home! They played in the backyard and met a new dog friend, which got Athena into the nap mode. Look forward to our next meeting!”

“My pup is getting plenty of socialization at Carolyn’s. I’m a first puppy owner, so I get nervous with stuff, but I have trust in Carolyn that she knows what she’s doing. She takes great pictures, is laid back, and is knowledgeable about dogs. I really trust her and like her!!”

“Paula took excellent care of our dog Loki. We were visiting from out of town and need a place for Loki while we visited older relatives. Paula was good with communication and Loki came back all happy. Definitely recommend!”

“Jessica is amazing!!! Our dog Lou had a blast staying at her house for the day! She loved playing in the yard with Jessica’s dog and another dog she was caring for. I couldn’t be happier to know Lou is in her care knowing she’s getting lots of cuddles and playtime. Thank you Jessica!!”

“This was my first time using the Rover app and booking with Hannah was super easy. I'm so grateful that she was able to accodmodate a very late request, literally a day before to care for my puppy while I had to work and my hubby out of town. He seemed to have had a wonderful time with Hannah and her pets. I appreciated the updates about my pup during his stay. We love Hannah and look forward to booking with her again if needed. Thank you Hannah!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life and truly love working with them. Since the age of 10, I’ve looked after dozens of dogs, volunteered at multiple shelters, and trained two puppies. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes from tiny 8 pound pups to large 100 pound dogs. I would be honored to watch your dog and can promise they’ll receive plenty of attention, care, and love while in my hands. I already have a dog to walk on a daily basis and I am home for most of every day. I will have the free time to take care of your dog to the best of my ability. I have a dog crate, homemade dog house, and an organized 3 story house the dog can stay in and roam around. There is a small front yard and a large area outback for space to walk.

“Awesome dog sitter! I was in Charlottesville for an interview, and needed a sitter pretty last minute. Caroline was super responsive, sent me so many cute updates, pictures and videos during the day. Raina had so much fun playing with the other dogs, and I would 100% rebook if I’m in the area in the future. Highly recommend!”

About: I am a social person. I’ll work hard and take good care of your dog. I have a dog back home. I love dogs a lot. I’m free all day Friday-Sunday. I’m a former football player so I know that I’ll be dedicated to giving your dog the best care. I truly love dogs. We have a playground for the dog here at my apartment. They have treats everywhere for pets and I believe this is a great space for a dog to be.

About: I’m currently raising a puppy, so I understand the patience, structure, and energy that young dogs need. At the same time, I also care for my 7-year-old dog, which has given me years of experience with the routines, training, and attention that come with adult dogs. I’m a student at the University of Virginia with a flexible schedule, so I have days without classes where I’d love to help care for your pets! As a pet owner, I know how important safety and trust are when it comes to caring for your pets. With my own puppy and 7-year-old dog, I’m experienced in handling different needs responsibly and making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own.

“Alexandra took such good care of our dog Willow. She sent us plenty of photos and videos, and Willow looked like she was having a blast. She was flexible when my husband was running a bit late from work to pick her up which was super helpful. We will definitely have her watch our pup again!”

“Jenny is a wonderful dog sitter. Couldn’t recommend her more highly. She helped care for my golden after her cancer diagnosis and made sure she had lots of fun, attention, and happy times. Also wonderful handling the less glamorous parts of medicine and appetite changes. Tons of photos and updates, and incredibly flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. Very grateful to have had Jenny as a sitter, thank you!”

“Isaiah was an a amazing sitter! We needed him last minute as we found out late about meeting a friend that was from Germany. He was very transparent when it came to how my Cali was that day and what his plans were to keep them busy. He asks all the questions and was VERY, VERY patient with us.”

“Rachel is great!! She was thorough with communications. I was on a tight schedule and we decided to meet up for the drop off and pick up. She was on time and ready to go! Ziggy is still very much a puppy and has a ton of energy. He spent the day with Rachel and I could tell he had so much fun because he was happy and healthy, but completely worn out. Thanks so much to Rachel for taking great care of my pup. Highly recommend!!!”

“Mary and her family did such an amazing job taking care of Buttercup. I definitely felt very comfortable each day and prior to booking. Mary worked with my early morning drop offs and long work hours which is much appreciated. The frequent pictures and updates were an added bonus. I definitely look forward to booking in the future! Thank you so much again”

“Gwynee is a very professional, responsive, and caring, she gives Zoe the love and attention she needs while I'm at work. I highly recommend her as your furbaby care taker and will continue using her to watch Zoe.”

“Allison was such an amazing and flexible puppy sitter! She was available last minute and even offered to drop her off at my apartment at the end of the day! We felt very comfortable leaving our dog there - she sent lots of photos of her playing and snuggling on the couch and came back totally exhausted. We would highly recommend Allison and will be using her again in the future!”
