“Amanda was able to accommodate me on short notice and took great care of my dog. She kept me updated the whole time and was even flexible when my pickup time had to change. She'll be my first go-to the next time I need a sitter in Charlottesville.”
“Alyssa and Sean were so incredible at taking care of our dog! They walked him often, gave him lots of attention, sent us lots of updates and pictures, made him home cooked healthy treats (!), and overall went above and beyond to take care of our pup. He is probably disappointed to be home after having such a good time with them! We would recommend them to anyone and will definitely ask them to care for our dog again in the future!”
“Liana and her family were lovely! I was in town and needed a place last minute for my 6 month old puppy to stay for the night. She welcomed him with open arms and he had a blast. They are very knowledgeable about dogs and I felt very comfortable leaving him there. They asked all the right questions and even gave me some great advice on how to help train him. We will be back whenever I am in town visiting friends. Thank you so much☺️”
“Jenesis was great! Lucky had a good time with her, and she made sure he got food he would eat when he was a little picky, and was flexible when I had to pick him up later than I'd planned to.”
“Bertie and the family are absolutely AMAZING!! They were able to accommodate my last minute request. I was continuously sent pictures and updates which I really appreciated. They were very gentle and understanding as Fluff is shy and gets anxious. I would 100% recommend Bertie and I would leave Fluff again with them.”
“We love Beth. Pepper, our Shih Tzu mix, doesn’t get along with everyone, but warmed right up to her. She gives Pepper exercise and good care. We will call Beth again when we need a sitter!”
“Mairany was kind, thoughtful, attentive, and so very loving to our fur babies! She sent regular updates and photos. We are so grateful for Mairany-she truly is an animal lover and made sure not only our fur babies were comfortable and cared for, but we were reassured as well. Highly recommend Mairany! She is absolutely amazing 🤩”
“Penny was incredible! She treated our dog like one of the family. Penny was also very communicative, letting us know how our pup was doing throughout the weekend. Could not recommend more highly!”
“Danielle and her crew were great! She was very responsive to my messages and was able to watch my doggo on very short notice. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in her care. If you're ever in Harrisonburg, choose her!”
“Wrigley had a great experience with Kendyl and her family. As a dog that is best to not be around other dogs, Wrigley thrived at Kendyl's while I was gone for a week. Would definitely use her again!”
“Jo is a wonderful dog sitter! She cared for our shy rescue Cavalier Maggie who has some PTSD tendencies due to being raised in a puppymill overbreeding environment. Within minutes of arriving, Maggie was going to Jo and getting petted. Jo is attentive and caring. Nice home and fenced yard area. Maggie was well cared for by Jo and Kayla. Received daily pics and updates too. Definitely will hire Jo again and highly recommend her!”
“Hank came home exhausted which means he had a blast. Cynthia did a great job in every Dept from communication to updates throughout the weekend. We were extremely pleased with her work.”
“I have used Svitlana to watch Chloe many times in the past. She is a warm, friendly and caring person who is knowledgeable about dog care. She has always been very communicative when watching Chloe- sending texts and photos. The last time I needed Svitlana, it was on short notice and not only was she able to accommodate my dates, she was able to watch both of my dogs. I trust her implicitly and I highly recommend her.”
“Aly did a great job of looking after my dog Margarita. She was quick with responses to communication and sent photo updates every day as requested. She was also flexible and communicative with drop-off and pick-up times when plans had to be adjusted. Thanks again Aly for looking after Margarita so well!”
“Excellent!! Very nice couple that took excellent care of my dog. They treated my dog like a family member. Plus kept in constant contact with pictures and videos. I felt at ease leaving my dog with them. Definitely will be coming back again. The service they offer is priceless to us! My dog was definitely happy there.”
“Everything went super smoothly. I had a couple of schedule changes, and Brandy was SUPER flexible and understanding about the changes. I got updates and some beautiful pictures as well. Would definitely recommend.”
