“Hillary was fantastic! Whaley stayed with her for 10 days and we received continuous communication and pictures. He was even hesitant to leave her house when we went to pick him up because he was so happy there.”
“Hannah did an absolute stellar job. Of course she is almost overly qualified, and I had no reservations of leaving my cat in her care. She was very responsive and flexible, which made it so much easier! Can’t recommend enough.”
“Because our dog, Hank, has mobility issues, I was worried about leaving him and traveling abroad for our holiday vacation. Deb was an absolute gem. She and her husband took such good care of Hank, using a sling for his potty breaks and giving him his medicine. She sent photos and updates regularly. I'm eternally grateful. I'll bet Hank is already looking forward to another stay with Deb.”
About: Ive grown up with animals and took an interest in training and sitting when I was around 10 years old. I have experience training and watching family dogs, reactive dogs, service dogs and puppies! I also have multiple animals of my own and am well versed in the different care that different species may need. When I am home, my attention is 100% on my animals. I do have a full time job in a neighboring city and am gone for normal work hours, but devote time and attention when I am home. In my own home, everybody has their own space. With dogs, cats and bunnies, each animal has the ability to socialize or spend time on their own in their space. Each animal has been trained to appropriately interact with each other.
“We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter than Joe! He took fantastic care of our dog, Tilly, while we were away on vacation for a week. Joe was incredibly kind and attentive, ensuring Tilly received all the love and care she needed. We came home to a happy and healthy pup, and we are so grateful for Joe's excellent service. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Jackie was amazing when watching our dog for 2.5 weeks while we were out of the country. She had great communication and sent us pics throughout the time. Great location as well for dogs to stay! Our dog has 3 legs and Jackie had no issues watching our dog and was very accommodating with any special needs. Highly recommend Jackie!”
“We were nervous leaving our 6-month-old puppy for the first time, but Cory made it a wonderful experience for us and our pup. Cory was easy to communicate with; he provided lots of photos and updates when we were gone and Riley seemed very happy and content when we went to pick her up. We would definitely like to have Cory watch Riley again.”
“Excellent care. It was a sudden drop off, my dog was very happy. He was very excited with whole family. I got pictures almost every 1-2 hours. I felt so comfortable. Thank you”
“We couldn't be happier with the care Sierra provided for our Bernedoodle! From the moment I dropped him off, I felt confident he was in great hands. Sierra kept my family updated with regular photos that showed just how much fun he was having. It was such a relief and gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Sierra’s exceptional support during our unexpected travel delay really set her apart. After we missed a connecting flight due to delays, we had no choice but to stay overnight in a hotel. Sierra graciously extended our dog's stay on very short notice without any hesitation. It was a lifesaver, and we’re incredibly grateful for her flexibility and kindness. When I picked him up, it was clear he had a great time. He was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Thank you, Sierra, for being so incredible. We would absolutely trust you again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable, and genuinely caring sitter!”
“Highly recommend these two, they were so nice and welcoming. My dog looked right at home with them and I had no worries. They send updates and pictures! Would book again!!”
“I have used Svitlana to watch Chloe many times in the past. She is a warm, friendly and caring person who is knowledgeable about dog care. She has always been very communicative when watching Chloe- sending texts and photos. The last time I needed Svitlana, it was on short notice and not only was she able to accommodate my dates, she was able to watch both of my dogs. I trust her implicitly and I highly recommend her.”
“Amy did a fantastic job with our dog Stina, even though she was a pain and went on a bit of a hunger strike. She communicated regularly and in great detail, and always answered questions quickly. She went above and beyond in her care for Stina. I would 100% recommend her.”
“Penny was absolutely amazing. She met us at a medical apt. and took Berkeley for a walk and short visit at her home before meeting us back following g the appointment. We could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you”
“Nadia was absolutely fantastic. We received daily updates on how our dog was doing and knew that she was very well taken care of. Nadia ensures that the dogs under her care get plenty of exercise/outside time and receive oodles of affection. I would highly recommend her!”
“Our experience with Ashley was awesome! She was very responsive and on top of our booking. Ashley sent us a photo & note to keep us updated. We came back to a very happy pup, who was clearly delighted with her boarding experience. We would not hesitate to book with Ashley again.”
