“Jani & Paul were able to graciously accommodate my puppy for daycare on very short notice. He thoroughly enjoyed his stay and will most definitely be booking again. The best!!!”


“Love Carolyn. She is super easy to get ahold of; always available, professional, and responsible with all the dogs! She has other awesome doggies that play with Izzy and I can tell she has a blast. Carolyn sends the cutest photos; it’s good to see that she’s enjoying herself! I will be having Izzy stay at Carolyn’s more in the future!!”


“what is a very awesome Rover mommy I’m very funny where I leave my puppy and she took care of her better than if she was her own puppy she even trimmed her nails for me. I definitely will be returning to Paula again many times she is more than a five star sitter thank you so much, Paul”


“Rebecca kept Max two separate days recently for doggy daycare. He’s an incredibly anxious dog so we were a bit nervous to drop him off someplace he’s never been with someone he doesn’t know. I was blown away with the care he received from Rebecca! He was literally smiling in the pictures she sent me! Her dogs are very sweet and playful, so Max had some built in friends as a bonus! He slept the entire way home and the rest of the afternoon/evening. We will most definitely utilize Rebecca in the future! Thank you again!”



“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”


“Lady is a funny little Cavalier who doesn't have much interest in playing with balls or toys, or even other dogs, although she is friendly to them. She mainly just likes human companionship and sitting in people's laps! This was Lady's second visit to Svitlana for Day Care, and we are very thankful for the safe and cozy, quiet environment Svitlana provides in her home and securely fenced yard.”


“Bree was so great! She was super flexible with my long work hours and Oakley had the absolute best time with her! We will definitely be using her again!”


About: I offer consistent and compassionate full time pet care. My priorities with your pet are to learn about their specific needs and routines and then meet those needs by following their routines as closely as I can. I've found it helps them feel secure if I can limit the new things they have to adjust to as much as possible. The more information you share with me, the more consistent I can be with your pets' care. I can care for many kinds of pets when I do your drop in visits, feel free to ask me about your reptiles, fish, and small mammals. Growing up, my family consistently had multiple pets. I learned pet care at a young age and that evolved into nursing sick foster pets as a teenager. That experience served me well pet sitting and also as an adult rescuing my own pets. I have extensive experience with both youthful and elderly cats, dogs, bunnies, other small mammals, and one adorable white tree frog. I have shared custody of my two beautiful middle schoolers, so I suddenly have a lot more free time than I'm accustomed to! I have been diving back into my hobbies and really enjoying getting to know more pets on a daily basis. Our trilevel home sits on 1/3 an acre with a fully fenced back yard. If your pet struggles with stairs, please let me know, they can use our backdoor as a much more accessible entryway. I have multiple sized crates and several rooms for keeping pets separated as needed. Most pets roam freely with the option to use their crate for security. We have three cats and two dogs that would keep your pet company if they visited us, as well as a separated giant bunny and white tree frog. When visiting your pet, I strive to keep their routine as consistent as possible with their normal to preserve their comfort and peace of mind.

“We were impressed with Jessica’s care for our border collie mix Boots for a very long day care day. Boots enjoyed the fenced-in yard and romping with another visiting dog. With a lovely, flexible, positive personality, Jess made us feel assured that Boots was being well taken care of. We would highly recommend her to others and will definitely seek her services again, when we return to town and need temporary dog care.”


“Ava was available last minute and took great care of our furbaby. Thx Ava!🐾💞”


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.

“Kirtly was very responsive, and gave a ton of feedbacks on the daycare session with our two dogs, one of which a 2 month old puppy. Will definitely book with Kirtly again.”


“Brooke is a fabulous person. Three couples descended on her with three dogs and she never batted an eye. There were updates and pictures during their stay. You are the best Brooke. Thank you.”


“Victoria took amazing care of Kendrick! He was able to play with her dog Maverick and was very happy the entire time!”



“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!!!”

About: Having had dogs and cats my entire life, I am well prepared to take care of your furry friend. Having had a dog with severe allergies, I am also prepared to take care of any pets with chronic health conditions that require more attention As a medical student in a hybrid learning environment, I have a flexible schedule that provides me the time to tend to your pets as needed. Caring for my own dog, your pet can fit seamlessly into our schedule for walks, bathroom breaks, and play time. I take all pets on several walks a day, providing them ample time to exercise and play outside. In caring for my clients home, I will make sure their pet abides by all house rules and maintain a clean living space for their home.

“Bear consistently has a great time with Kendall & Harrison. He comes home happily exhausted!”

About: I've been a frequent fosterer throughout college, having had 2 dogs short-term and 1 long term, with many field trips in between through SPCA of Charlottesville. I love animals and have a household they can safely explore and relax in! Currently job-searching, so I have a lot of free time during the week to take care of some furry friends! I work odd jobs here and there, but nothing too committed. I have a larger house and a decent sized yard, but I typically like to take dogs on long walks around different parks in Charlottesville. I can easily crate if needed and have plenty of room for that.

“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.”
