“Our pup had a wonderful stay with Hillary! We receive daily updates with photos. Our girl was given walks and lots of love and had a fun time while we were away! Thank you!”


“Jani and Paul took amazing care of Kona! We hate to leave her, however I could tell she was being totally spoiled with love from the daily photos and updates. Kona is quite active, so they took her on daily walks and played ball with her in their yard. Kona enjoyed watching the squirrels in their backyard and was made to feel totally at home. I would not hesitate to recommend Jani and we already have another visit booked for Kona.”


“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.”


“Gouda loved his time with Kendyl! She was responsive and great with sending us updates while he was there. Will absolutely be using Kendyl in the future for dog boarding!”


“STOP scrolling and BOOK NOW, you and your pups will be so happy u did!! Not gonna lie, I wasn't sure if my furbabies would want to come home when it was time for us to pick them up 😂 Prior to their stay, I chatted with the host, Joe, via Rover - he was super responsive and answered all my questions. Any hesitation I had about leaving our furbabies with a "stranger" were quickly washed away, I could just feel his great vibes through our chat! And when we met in person for drop off, I was sure of my decision! During their stay Joe sent us update photos, it was so great to not just see my furbabies, but to see that they were happy! Joe is simply amazing and Ms. Lilabet is the cutest dog co-host! It is soooo super evident that our furbabies were well-loved and taken care of, and that means everything to us 💜🐾💜🐾”


“Great dog sitter! They were incredibly kind and instantly put our minds at ease. Regular updates and photos kept us connected to our furry friends throughout our trip. Our dogs returned happy and well-cared for.”


“Beth did a great job taking care of Remy while I was on vacation. She devotes her time (it seems) exclusively to the dog she's sitting for. I felt confident leaving Remy with her while gone.”


“Amanda was able to accommodate me on short notice and took great care of my dog. She kept me updated the whole time and was even flexible when my pickup time had to change. She'll be my first go-to the next time I need a sitter in Charlottesville.”


“I felt like I could trust her to watch my dog, while we went out of town and I didn't have to worry about how he was going to be. She sent picture updates throughout the weekend, She's a quick communicator, and was patient when we had some delays for picking him up!”


“Danielle was amazing with our cat, Kinako! This was her first time being away from home, but it was very obvious from the pictures and updates that she was in great hands. It was also her first time being around so many other pets, but they were very sweet with her and she seemed surprisingly at ease :) We're excited to book with Danielle again whenever we're out of town!”


About: I've owned and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, from raising litters of puppies to nursing sick kittens back to health. I’ve trained working ranch dogs, cared for senior pets, and managed special diets. I work from home, so your pet gets my full attention. Whether it’s playtime, walks, meals, or cuddles, their needs come first, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I provide loving, attentive pet care in my home or yours, following routines, ensuring proper nutrition, exercise, and comfort. Whether it's walks, playtime, or special needs, I treat them like family.

“Everything went super smoothly. I had a couple of schedule changes, and Brandy was SUPER flexible and understanding about the changes. I got updates and some beautiful pictures as well. Would definitely recommend.”


About: I have previously worked as a vet assistant in a veterinarian's office and as the rescue/foster/adoption coordinator at an animal shelter. I have over 25 years of personal experience and 5 years of professional experience taking care of pets of all ages, sizes and temperaments. I can administer medications orally, topically, give injections, and IV fluids with confidence. I'll take care of your pet as as if they were one of my own! For drop-in visits in your home, I am flexible throughout the week and have availability on weekdays and weekends. I am happy to come by anytime between 7 am and 10 pm. For doggy day care or boarding in my home, my office is 5 mins away from home. My partner works from home during the week and is glad to tag in to help with pet care as needed. I have my own vehicle and can easily travel to care for your pet in the Harrisonburg or Rockingham County area. I am happy to care for your pet in your home according to any instructions or requests that you share. I am also happy to water plants or bring in mail if you wish. After a successful meet and greet, I would be happy to host your pet in my home. There's a fully fenced yard and ample grass to romp in and take care of business. I live in a quiet neighborhood and am game to take your dog on a walk with mine. Pets are welcome on the furniture and there's even space to snuggle up in the bed if they're used to bunking up together at night. Our 7 year old female Yorkie is very dog-friendly and enjoys having company. She's a good playmate if your dog is up for a little tug on a toy or chase in the yard. She's also good at reading signs from dogs when they're done playing or want to be left alone. We would love to welcome you to our home for a meet and greet prior to booking to make sure everyone gets along.

About: I bring a calm, reliable presence and a deep understanding of animal behavior across all ages and species. With hands-on experience caring for everything from playful puppies to gentle senior pets — as well as exotic companions like parrots — I adapt my care to each animal’s unique needs. I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day to keep pets on their regular routine and give them consistent attention. I’m comfortable with crate training, potty training, administering medication, and supporting senior dogs or animals with special needs. Every pet in my care is treated like family — safe, understood, and genuinely loved. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. Since I work from home, I’m able to build my schedule around the pets in my care — whether that means regular walks, feeding times, play sessions, or quiet companionship. My own pets have taught me the importance of consistency and attention, so I’m always mindful of keeping each pet’s routine as close to normal as possible. Caring for animals isn’t something I fit in — it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and right at home here. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I do have an underground fence system with extra collars for dogs who are trained to use it. Otherwise, all outside time is fully supervised, whether on a leash or in the yard. Inside, my home is pet-friendly, calm, and set up to give animals their own space if they need it. I keep things clean, low-stress, and consistent with whatever routine they’re used to. I’m always nearby since I work from home, so your pet gets lots of attention and care throughout the day.

“Francesca was awesome! She was super flexible with our schedule and treated our doggy so well. Laila had so much fun hanging out with her, and if we’re ever back in town, we will definitely use her again!”


“Fala had a blast with Madeline! She looked so happy in all of the pictures that were sent and when we got home she zonked out— meaning she had some good walks and play time! Fala also cried when we got in the car and missed Madeline. Will definitely rebook in the future.”
