“Kat is the only rover we use! After bad experiences with others, we can’t imagine using anyone else. I trust her wholeheartedly with Jetty and know my pup had the best time. She looks forward to going to “Zoe’s house!””


“Zach was GREAT! He communicated regularly with a message and pictures. Peanut wasn't sure if he wanted to come home since he had such a fun time! We can highly recommend Zach!!”


“Penny is a wonderful dog sitter!! I brought my dog to her home for a couple of overnight stays. She was so kind and went above and beyond to help my dog feel comfortable.”



“My pups always have an amazing time! They get daily play, correction and guidance with time to relax! Many just let dogs play for hours. Charissa really knows how to manage the kids to be great fur babies! Ashton & sis Macy have spent last 7 days. Ash goes to day care at least once a week. Highly recommend, if you want the best behaved pup, to complete some specialized training with her! From overnight training to a few classes! The “mom” in me wants to just snuggle but Charissa’s tips and time spent has paid off for us! We are regulars of 3 years now and appreciate Poindexter Park so much! Thanks also to Alex for your great stories and support!”


“Kaitlyn is friendly and super accommodating to make sure your dog has a wonderful experience and time while you’re away! She made sure my dog was at home and part of her family. I would highly recommend her to anyone! Definitely will want to utilize her again.”


“We were so happy to leave our boy, Denver, with Jesse and Emily. Denver is almost 14 and so giving him the love and attention he’d get as the only dog in the home was really important to us, and not having to worry about him getting stressed out by younger dogs who constantly wanted to play for 6 days. We couldn’t have been happier. Denver was right at home, getting walks that he loves as well as plenty of chill time and attention from Jesse and Emily as well as their two girls. Jesse and Emily were great about sending us photo updates that let us know that Denver was comfy and happy. Denver is a finicky eater especially when not at home and they were great about paying attention and giving some treats here and there to get his appetite going. We would definitely leave Denver with them again!”


“Heather is super responsive and takes your pet’s needs seriously. My pup is sweet but has some anxiety issues—Heather thoughtfully supported all of his needs while providing lots of pictures and updates to ease my mind while he was under her care. Highly recommended… will definitely be booking again!”


“Bertie, Liss and family are absolutely wonderful! It was the first time leaving my puppy overnight and they were kind, responsive and helpful. They took great care of my pup, treated her like their own, and sent lots of updates. I can’t recommend them enough and will absolutely book with them again!”



“Debbie and Pete were incredible people that made me feel so comfortable leaving my dog behind for a week. Their accommodations are top notch and I believe my dog had a better time away from us and was in more like a camp situation than being boarded.”


“Paula was a lifesaver! We were anxious about leaving our 7mo puppy for our 9 day vacation. Paula was so responsive (tolerating my anxiety), sending photos and videos. Our boy was clearly well cared for and somehow came back a better listener! He was in constant company and I think he had a great time.”


“Bree was great with Winter! She sent all the pictures and was really responsive. I had some travel changes and she was very accommodating for picking Winter up at a different time. Will definitely use Bree again if I need a sitter in Charlottesville!”


“Cynthia is definitely the best dog sitter I have met! Her and her family are incredibly sweet. My previous sitter canceled last minute and she responded and agreed to care for my Bailey at the last minute. I’m so grateful! Not only is she prompt with response, but she sent frequent updates and pictures. She has a big back yard and took Bailey on a fun excursion! Definitely worth the drive outside of Charlottesville! Will highly recommend!”


“Svitlana really knows dogs. She walked my dog and sent pics and got to know her quirks quickly. Svitlana also continued with the same house rules we use at home. I will definitely have Pi stay with her again!”


About: Dogs have been part of my family for as long as I can remember — they’re truly woven into the fabric of my life. After 15 years as a large animal and livestock farmer, I’ve handled every kind of surprise animals can throw at me — so I’m up for unusual circumstances. Your pup will have 10 fully fenced acres to explore, sniff, and zoom to their heart’s content. And they won’t be alone! I have four animal-loving kids who can’t wait to run, play, and snuggle with new furry friends. I work from home, and my kids are homeschooled so we are home most of the time, so we are available for potty breaks and snuggles throughout the day. During the school year we attend a homeschool co-op for much of the day Tuesday and Thursday. We have 10 fully fenced acres for safe, joyful exploring, plus two friendly dogs and four dog-savvy cats to keep your pup company. Crating is available if needed (especially for new potty trainers), but we love welcoming guest dogs right into our daily routine. Your dog can enjoy farm walks, endless ball throwing, and plenty of cozy couch time with us. They’ll feel like part of the family from day one!

“Tamara and her family were wonderful with my boys. I was nervous leaving them with someone new for the first time. Copper is sometimes unsure of strangers but she assured me he would do just fine. They took great care of them & I felt comfortable leaving them in their hands.”


“Alexandra was flexible and reliable. Her family was sweet. My dog loved the all the attention and playing with the other pups. After a long weekend away, my dog was tired and happy.”


“Yet again, Susann and her family took great care of Bella, so much so that Bella did not want to come home! It is a perfect place for Bella and I am so fortunate to have found a wonderful caring family, thank you!”


About: Your fur baby will have a blast with our pack! Winnie, Tater and Goose are the ultimate pals. We will be sure to keep your pup entertained and a great way to get exercise and affection while you’re away! If you have an older dog, I can offer one on one snuggle time and a calm relaxing environment separate from the other pups. We have 2 acres and enjoy outside playtime. We frequent the dog park in Louisa and hiking trails from Richmond to Charlottesville. Common treats are homemade chicken jerky and sardines. Please let me know if your pup is not on a tick preventative. We treat our yard with a dog safe spray but enjoy recreational activities away from home and would like to be extra cautious for your fur baby. I have full weekday and have full weekend availability! We enjoy going on walks in our neighborhood or the park close by early in the morning and late at night before it gets too hot. Depending on your pup’s age, younger ones will have tater and goose to play with. Older/calmer pups will stay with Winnie and I in a separated part of the house. I will care for your pup however you feel they will do the best (:

“We are so happy to have found Lindy. She took excellent care of our dog Rex while we were away! We got pictures of of him playing, walking, and lounging every day, AND he ate all his food which he usually doesn’t do when boarded. We highly recommend Lindy and will definitely use her again when we are away.”
