1. Bertie A.

“Bertie and his dogs were great with Teddy. Always responsive and polite. I would definitely leave Teddy with him again.”


2. Zach D.

“I cannot say enough positive things about Zach. He was gracious and flexible with a last-minute request and time changes. He has the right balance of structure and play, and is clearly passionate about understanding and training dogs. He sent some great pictures throughout the day, and don’t think I’ve ever seen my puppy smile any bigger. I also appreciate the act of the time show me his set up and allow time for communication since this was our first time using day care. Thank you so much, Zach!!”


3. Sheri J.

“Sheri was great! She kept in contact all day and sent pics of my little dude having a blast. If I’m ever back in Phoenix, I’ll absolutely call her again.”


4. Shareem K.

“Shareem was very communicative and gave us multiple updates on our dog Lilo throughout the day. My dog even whined a little when we left, and that to me is a good sign that she was treated with kindness and wouldn’t mind coming back some day soon. I highly recommend Shareem for pet sitting.”


5. Denton & Elizabeth W.


“Excellent care for our two sheperd mix brothers! They went above and beyond to ensure their safety and care! I will definitely use them again!!”


6. Dawn B.


“Sorry for the late review. I've been doing the grandma thing for the past 2 weeks. I am a widow and I live alone many miles from family. My dogs, Margot and Molly, have become my life. When I learned that they were not invited to the party, I almost declined the invitation. Through a trusted friend, I learned about Rover. I took a chance and booked a time with Dawn. WOW! It's like taking your child to kindergarten for the first day and they walk away from you without looking back. I like to think the girls are good judges of character. Well Dawn took their leashes and they walked away from me without looking back They were not the least stressed when I picked them up later. They had play time with other dogs, they had their dinner and they were ready for a good night's sleep when I picked them up. I got updates on where they were and what they were doing. I couldn't be happier than I was with Dawn's care. This experience was a golden buzzer for me.”


7. Ramiza & Michael R.

“She was amazing letting me know how my puppy was doing each day. I felt like she cared for my girl just like I would which made the experience even better. We will be using Ramiza for the next few weeks.”


8. Paula W.

“Paula is amazing! Our pups love spending time with her and her crew!”


9. Taryn A.

“Taryn and her husband were great with Chase. Taryn put my mind at ease with the care she provided for Chase. Will definitely book again. Thank you for all the pics and love shown towards my lil man. I truly appreciate you !”


10. Jenna C.


“I am new to the area and require a dependable and very good dog person for my ESA canine Katie. I found Jenna C. and was very impressed by the reviews. I took a chance and let Katie doggie day sit Katie.. Katie was warmly received and blended in with the other pups very well. Jenna kept me posted on her progress during the day. When I picked Katie up, she was happy as could be and in great condition and mood. I found just what I was looking for in Jenna C. It is very apparent Jenna knows pets and treats them very well while they are under her charge. I am thrilled Katie now has an excellent place for play or stay. Katie and I are very pleased with Jenna C. Thank you!”


11. Vanessa L.

“Vanessa was very sweet and took great care of my rocco!! Definitely recommend!!”


12. Alethea S.


“Alethea is an absolute delight. She is organized, flexible and responsive and perhaps most importantly, she really loves dogs. After a quick meet and greet, my dog sprinted into her arms a couple days later. Can't ask for more 😊”


13. Andreea M.

“Zadie enjoyed her day stay at Andreea's today. The shady back yard was a perfect exercise spot in this hot, muggy Richmond weather. Andreea let me know via message that Zadie wasn't so interested in her food, which she made up for when she returned home! Guess she was having too much fun interacting with Andreea's two pups to think about eating. Smooth booking, arrival and departure.”


14. Krista R.
“Krista is the most loving person I have ever met in my life. I’ve watched her take care or multiple puppies. From large dogs to small dogs. She has even taken my puppy out while I was away for business. She smiles all the time and is very friendly. She would be very helpful to any one in need of a dog sitter !”


15. Hayden E.

“Exceptional communication. Has sweet kids that play with the dog. Flexible. Sends lots of pictures. Open to feedback and gives feedback with kindness. Hayden’s place is our pup’s #1 choice. Thank you for being the incredible person you are, Hayden.”


16. Debra H.
About: I can't promise your pet(s) won't be spoiled! One level home with a playmate, our 17 yr old Dora, a 15 year old, sweet old aussie shepherd. I am retired and dogs are my passion. I am located in the George's Tavern area of Goochland. I am usually home daily. My schedule is flexible. We have a very large fenced yard. Your dog(s) will have room to explore inside and out. We can discuss any special needs. I have experience with all shapes, sizes and breeds, however, as much as I love them, I cannot handle bigger and stronger breeds; i.e., American bull dogs, pit bulls, great danes and German shepherds to name a few. Your dogs are my daily priority. I can schedule any time daily and I am open to a long-term boarding commitment when I am available. I have an additional smaller fenced area for smaller dogs and puppies. I have customers that found me through other avenues, and have outstanding reviews as I appear to have become Grandma to them. All will provide references. I give lots of time and attention to all dogs giving special loving attention to the aging beauties. They all need lots of love and often need special care.
17. Dae'Twan S.
“Daetwan has always had a passion for caring for animals every since he was a young kid. He takes really good care of his pets as if they are human family members. He is also the best uncle to my teenage boys, he teaches them something new and positive every time they hang out with him. Daetwan is one of the most outstanding, respectable men I know.”


18. Melissa & Mark M.
About: Our family loves to care for your pets as if they are our own! We will do whatever we can to make them happy and comfortable and will follow all specific requests. We have many years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I am working part time and my husband works from home (and next door), with plenty of flexibility to care for your pets during the day and night. Although we do not have a fenced in yard, we have a couple of acres that will provide your pet plenty of space. We will take them on walks and for potty breaks on a leash as needed. We have one sweet, calm mini golden doodle (Poppy!) that loves other pets!
