“Danielle did an AMAZING job taking care of our kitties. One of them needs a lot of medication but that didn’t seem to phase her. They were well taken care of, got very comfortable with her in a short period of time, and we got a lot of adorable pictures. We will definitely be hiring her again.”

“Tessa stepped in at the last minute to take care of Kimi when another Rover had to cut the stay short by two days. We're very comfortable with Tessa and appreciate her willingness to help. This is the second time she has taken care of Kimi.”

“Genesis was amazing!! She kept me up to date with cute pictures and took such good care of my dog, giving her so much love and attention! I can’t recommend her enough!!”

“Our dogs fell in love with Nathan right from the start. He was great taking them out for walks, feeding them, playing ball with them, and cuddling with them. We will definitely use Nathan again!”

“Dakota, this review is written also as my gratitude. Thank you again for all your time and attention to my dogs for such a very long time (12 days!). They were content and happy when I got back. And the house was spotless! (You didn’t have to clean up!) I felt safe leaving them with you and deeply appreciated your daily updates and photos. I hope you and Spam would be willing to help us out again in the future 😊!!”


“Anne took great care of our two dogs and two guinea pigs during our two-week trip. We felt very comfortable having her house-sitting and she was great about keeping the dogs' routines going on as normal. She was very responsible and was friendly and engaging with our pets. We were very happy to have her here at our house for our pets.”

“Ireland was fantastic and we would highly recommend her! She was a great communicator throughout our trip, took excellent care of our pup, and was very respectful of our home. We came back to a happy, tired dog and a house that was just as clean as when we left. We truly appreciated her professionalism and care.”

“Bertie and Lissette's family were amazing! They took great care of my puppy and were very responsive and easy to communicate with. I will definitely contact them again the next time I am in Charlottesville.”

“Mackenzie is really responsible and trustworthy, detail oriented with following instructions and my puppy’s care and has a great attitude when things shift last minute— loved her stay and thankful for her exceptional help!”

“Rosey is amazing—totally responsible and professional. Our cat loves her. She got in touch Right away when our cat was not eating enough. We hope to hire her again in the future!”

“Tracy was an incredible house sitter! She took great care of our pup, left our home excellent condition, and was regularly in contact with us throughout our time away. I can't recommend her enough and we are certain to contact her again when we need someone to look after our dog.”

“My fiancée and I feel like we’ve hit the jackpot after adding Abi to our lives! She came to our home before our trip to meet us and our girls, ask plenty of questions, and see how the dogs responded to her presence. She is warm and patient, and even our super anxious/epileptic dog took to her quickly (a rare occurrence). She was meticulous in reviewing our care instructions for our needy crew (two dogs on several meds). She texted us pictures while we were away, asked follow up questions, and truly put our minds at ease seeing how much she cared for our girls. We can’t thank her enough for the ways she impressed us, and hope to have her return soon!”

“James is the best dog sitter / walker we have ever had! He manages our two goldens (one a young puppy) with ease. Can’t say enough positive things about our experience with him!”


About: I have a large family dog that I have been responsible for since I was about 10 years old. She has since gotten older so I have experience with a senior dog and giving any sorts of medication (and the peanut butter necessary to get her to take it). I am no stranger to having to clean up any accidents in the house so that is a non-issue for me. I am also open to taking care of other animals like rodents or turtles or other cage creatures. I am a true and passionate animal lover! My schedule is very flexible at the moment. I am happy to give as much or little time needed for the pets. I can figure out any scheduling and details necessary with clients. I am never loud coming into a home. I always let the pets come to me unless they are hiding on purpose. I take care instructions very seriously and will follow everything exactly and will reach out if I have questions about the best way I can care for your fur friend.

“Kris was wonderful - I came back to happy healthy pups and a clean well-cared for home I would highly recommend Kris and wouldnt hesitate to have her house sit with my dogs when I go away next time Very caring and considerate - took out my trash and brought in my mail too!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter! Kristen was absolutely amazing—so thoughtful and genuinely caring with both our dog and cat. She kept us updated with photos and sweet check-ins, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Not only did our pets clearly adore her, but she also left our home even cleaner than we left it. We are grateful to find someone so responsible, loving, and attentive. We recommend her without hesitation and would absolutely book with her again!”

I can't recommend Tracy enough! We haven't left our 11 year old dog with a sitter for at least 5 years, and were nervous he would be stressed out and have no fun while we were gone. Tracy was absolutely fabulous with him and gave him the VIP treatment that he doesn't normally get when he's home with his family! She took him on so many walks, gave him lots of treats, and truly got to know him and love him. Our home was spotless when we returned, as well, which was such a gift. I think he misses Tracy already and we will have to keep them connected!

Caring, thoughtful, dependable, and responsible. Charlotte did a wonderful job caring for Bessie and my home while I was away. Great daily communication. And she left the place nice and clean. I really appreciated her willingness to arrive very early in the morning and stay til late at night to accommodate my flight schedule. Definitely looking forward to having Charlotte take care of Bessie again soon, thank you!
