“Nathan was wonderful when coming to our home to care for our cat and dog while we were away. He was communicative and kind, and even vacuumed our place before we got back 😭 would recommend!”


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!

“Bayley was a great sitter. We were out of town and needed someone last minute to check on our 4 cats. I put in the request around midnight and she responded presumably as soon as she saw the request in the morning. She did everything that was requested and was very thorough in her communication which is everything to a pet owner. We definitely intend on using her in the future and would highly recommend her services.”


“dayton took such great care of our two kittens! she was very accommodating with booking changes, initiated a meet and greet, was communicative and left thoughtful updates with pictures. we would definitely book her again in the future :)”


About: I have 3 dogs of my own that I’ve raised all from puppies! I’ve had a lot of experience with pet sitting from small to larger breeds! I currently work at a dog boarding place so I have lots of experience. Im currently working a part time job and my hours differ week to week. Some days it’s 7 am- 12:00 pm and other days it’ll be from 9 am - 4:30 pm! I have 3 fur babies at home so I’m mostly looking for pet sitting at clients homes! Just more of a safety thing for all the pups!

About: I have had dogs and cats since I was young. I enjoy the time I get to spend with them. I love these guys truly. I currently work Monday through Friday. I schedule my day around being able to care for my own pups. And can fit ur pets routines into my day. I have 3 wonderful dogs and can incorporate your pup into my home with no problem. I foster a lot my dogs are very tolerant of newcomers.

“Amanda and her partner, Jonathan, were great. They are reliable. They were flexible when we had a few changes and even agreed to an additional visit which we didn’t end up needed. They responded immediately to texts. I would hire them again in a heartbeat.”


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 (:

About: I’ve always had dogs in my home. I took vet medicine in high school and went through dog and cat CPR training in that class. I’ve had golden retrievers, many German Shepherds, Dobermans, and my current baby is a senior Beagle. I’ve cared for my dogs from puppies to seniors. I work full time usually from 8-4 during the weekday. However, with a flexible schedule, I can come home mid day if needed. My weekends fill up fast, but my plans are always revolving around the dogs. I have a very large yard, with no fence. My beagle is trained on an invisible fence, but I have a frequent visitor that stays on a leash. My yard offers great walks and water access to dogs that love to swim. I also have a lead by the door for when they want to sun bathe. My beagle, and my frequent visitor, both LOVE other dogs and prefer to have the company of another dog in the home. My beagle ignores his friends when they try to play. He prefers to enjoy the company of his friends instead of playing. My frequent visitor dog is also very low key, but LOVES to play.
