Dog Boarding Kelly Town-Rugby Heights

“We LOVE Bertie and family! They take the sweetest care of Piper and make her feel like family. We never have to worry when we leave Piper because we know she will be loved on by everyone- especially their sweet kids! Bertie and family are our go-to sitters and have watched our pup more times than we can count. We can’t speak highly enough! A must use if you want your pup to get the best care!”

“Jesse & Emily treated my Angel like she’s a family. Angel was greatly taken care of, even made friends with Hazel and Nola (kids). We received daily updates and pictures. We’re forever grateful for this family.”

“Paula is a wonderful, trustworthy sitter :) we left our puppy in her care for a week and have also dropped him off for daycare many times. She always provides detailed information about his day and even has offered suggestions/adjustments about behavior modification if needed.”

“Svitlana was wonderful! She clearly knows and loves dogs. She was patient with settling our dog in and then went above and beyond with helping to get her energy expended. We loved seeing pictures of her happily playing. So thankful for the care!”

“This was our first time leaving Pepe with a sitter and our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous, you never really know who you’re leaving your dog with. But Riley was exceptional from the very beginning. Even before I booked her, she helped me figure out how the app worked and made the whole process easy. During Pepe’s stay, she kept me 100% informed at all times with photos, videos, and messages. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and professional. I truly felt peace of mind knowing Pepe was in her hands. I have no doubt he was well cared for, and I would absolutely book her again. Thank you so much, Riley, for treating Pepe like your own dog, we truly appreciate it.”

About: Hi there! My name is Catherine. I have grown up with dogs in my house and have always had a passion for animals. I always want to make sure your furry family members feel comfortable and loved while you’re away! I am reliable and make sure to communicate clearly when a problem arises, or just to send pictures because I know you miss your pet. I love going for walks around my neighborhood and make sure to give plenty of cuddles! I am in online school full-time, so I can your pet my full attention during the day. I am very active during the day and am never in the same spot twice, so there will be lots of activity if your dog needs it. I live in a gated community and can accommodate crated dogs. I also do not mind your dog being on the furniture! I do not currently own a pets and I live in a smoke-free household.

“Aly was great and Rory had an amazing time! She sent us lots of pictures and kept us updated on her the whole time. She was also super flexible when our flight got delayed and we had to pick her up late. All around wonderful experience!”

“Our pups were very happy to be staying with Katina. It was nice not to worry about leaving them behind while we were on vacation. We will definitely entrust Katina with our pups again! 😊”

Karen B.

“This was our first time using Mark and Daniel for our furbabies Sadie and Saul. We received multiple updates and pictures during their stay. They seemed very attentive to our dogs needs. We would highly recommend them for anyone looking for a dog sitter. We will definitely use them again!!”

Shelly M.

“Jenny was brilliant - truly think we have found a gem of a place in her farm. Monty came home tuckered out and full of happiness. I think he had a great vacation! Highly recommend”

Katie W.

“Our 3 dogs stayed with Brooke for 2 nights and had a blast! Her massive fenced yard provided the perfect spot for play time, and Brooke is incredibly kind and professional with the dogs she takes care of. She provided photos every day, and even gave our 1 elderly dog her daily medicine. When we picked the dogs up, it was clear they’d had a wonderful time with Brooke. We highly recommend her!”

Celia B.

“Ava is the best!! I’ve boarded my dog with her twice now and both experiences have been great. She’s been so helpful and has communicated very well with us. I’m happy to have found our go to dog sitter!!”

Laura Beth F.

“I can’t recommend Jani and Paul enough! They were prompt with communication and flexible in scheduling drop off/pickup times. Birdie seemed to have a blast there and will definitely rebook their services the next time I need it.”

About: Hey y’all! I have taken care of pets, specifically dogs, for as long as I can remember. I grew up in Louisiana with 2 dachshunds in my family home. One of them had diabetes, so I am experienced with giving shots and oral medication. In addition to taking care of the weenie dogs, I had a pet hedgehog and chameleon in high school. I truly love animals of all kinds. I grew up walking and dog sitting for family friends and neighbors. In high school, I was an involved volunteer at my local humane society. When I was in college, I ended up rescuing a dog from that shelter. My parents took him in since I lived in a college dormitory. After I graduated college, I couldn’t wait to get my own dog! Here in Charlottesville, I have 1 dog now, Pretzel, who is a small lab mix. He is also a rescue, and is my world! I can’t wait to meet, walk, and watch your pets! I have a non-traditional work schedule that is unpredictable but also flexible. I go into work most week days, or sometimes work from home. My hours can vary, but I always make time to walk my dog Pretzel multiple times a day with trips to the dog park when I can. I am available on the weekends. In my home, Pretzel roams free. I do not kennel him, as he is potty trained. I want Pretzel to be able to roam around as he pleases. Pretzel sleeps with me every night.

“Ashley watched my Lexie, 5 and a half year old black lab, for 6 days. She provided me daily updates and photos of Lexi's activities to keep me informed that she was doing well. I highly recommend Ashley as a resource to care for your dog as well.”

“Cynthia made sure my fairly anxious dog, Obi, was well cared for! This is the first time I’ve left him with someone he doesn’t know, so I was worried at first. But Cynthia kept me updated the whole time I was gone and her pictures and quick updates made me feel so much better about being away from Obi!”

Kennedy H.

“Moxie had a great time staying over with Caroline. I loved getting photos and updates. Caroline is very experienced with dogs who have special needs and she is warm and friendly. So glad we found her!”

Sarah D.

“Julie and her family took wonderful care of Willa! She got to go on plenty of walks and enjoyed lots of snuggles. Julie sent pictures and was easy to communicate with. Willa came home happy and we will definitely book with her again!”

Lisa S.

“James was really great with Topanga, quick to respond to questions and messages. I know he took good care of her, and I would gladly leave her with him for a long stay again.”

David L.

“Wonderful experience ! Heather and her family were very welcoming and accommodating. They were flexible and extended the stay for our dogs when we needed to stay an extra day. The dogs were very happy and enjoyed playing with her little girls. I will definitely request Heather when we board our pups.”
