“I am new to the Blue Ridge area and had been spoiled rotten by my regular dog sitter back in Arizona. But I have to say Judy has become my new sitter with whom my dogs get spoiled rotten. She is very attentive. Received daily updates and pictures regularly (2-3 times a day). Anytime she had a question just asked. Watered my plants, and even did the sheets and towels before we got home. The dogs were very happy with her both through activities outside and her attentiveness while staying in our home. One of our pups had a bit of a limp and she helped us try to care for her until we were home. Found out once home she now has arthritis. But Judy was there taking full care of our dogs. I will definitely be a repeat customer.”


“JaNiya is a phenomenal housesitter, especially if you have shy animals (but *any* animal would love her!). We have two skittish greyhounds and a very shy adopted cat. Within one day, our cat was sitting in JaNiya’s lap, and our dogs were relaxed and happy. I couldn’t believe it! She has such a calm, tender presence, and you can tell she adores animals. She’s even studying to be a veterinarian! Do not pass her up! She’s the only housesitter we’ll use from now on!”


“This was the second time we hired Ben to watch our pups. Once again, we were very pleased with how our pups were cared for. Ben was communicative while we were away, and our home was clean and tidy when we returned.”


“Becca was great! Our dogs were well cared for, and she was very respectful of our home and wishes. Our home was spotless when we returned! Walter is a quirky Boston and Paisley is a "mouthy" dachshund - Becca gave them time to warm up to her and things couldn't have gone smoother. This was our first time leaving them with an in-home dog sitter. I was apprehensive about it, but Becca was great to give updates and ask any questions about their care. I have already booked her for August - you should too!”


“Laura was great with our animals. We have 2 dogs and a cat. Old and young-big and little, Laura took care of them all and sent lots of pictures and videos each day. Laura also took care of our house while we were gone. When we came home the house was clean and neat. The bed had been stripped and the sheets washed. Thanks again Laura for allowing us to have a carefree trip.”


About: I’m a born and raised city girl that wanted to be raised on a farm. Instead of cows and horses, I have 3 cats, and a 7 year old Golden Retriever. I worked as an EMT and I now work as a home based travel agent. We have lots of love to give. Animals are my passion. Boarding your dog at my house is way better than a kennel. Dogs that stay with me get full use of the house. Give me a call! You won’t regret it! *Dogs must be up to date on rabies vaccine and flea prevention. Meet and greet before stay is recommended. Additional surcharge applies for special needs dogs (puppies, elderly dogs that need extra attention or medication administration). *I do not accept any aggressive dogs or full grown dogs that are not house trained or who mark in the house. Owners are responsible for damages due to destructive dogs. I currently work from home and hang out with my dog and cats. I have a fenced in yard and can let dogs out frequently. We love playing in the yard and cuddles on the couch! My Golden Retriever is also a friendly pup that will keep your fur baby company when I go out for errands.

“Katrina did an excellent job babysitting my five-year-old Shih Tzu, Benny. I could tell that Benny really liked Katrina at the meet and greet. She communicated with me and sent pictures during my time away, and Benny seemed very happy upon my return. I am looking forward to using Katrina again in the future.”
