About: I have taken care of dogs for a friend for a few years now. I also have experience with taking care of a local family’s 2 sweet dogs. I have been their go to for a few years now. I also have experience as a pet owner, I grew up with dogs my entire life, at one time we had a pack of 8. My goal is to ease your pet’s anxiety when their favorite person is not there. I will work to make sure your pet has the structure they need, the enrichment they crave, and the love they deserve. I do work full time Monday -Friday 8am-5pm so I am free on weekends and happy to stay with the animals when I’m not working. I can also check in on my lunch hour to ensure they have the restroom breaks they need and the enrichment time. I am very attentive when I am caring for you furry family members. I make sure that they have fresh water and get fed at the correct times. I always send photo updates each time the pets go outside or eat. I am very flexible with what is required if you’re able to be flexible and understanding of my work schedule.

About: I've had dogs since my 20s (already 40)they are the best companions. They are friends, therapists and best buddies. I want to take care of your doggie like it's mine. You will feel relax with Bertie and family care. I will make sure that are comfortable and enjoy a nice time. It fits perfectly, since I already have dogs and I work from home (flexible schedule). There is no problem in doing daily doggie routine for me. I enjoy walks with the dogs on the area. I have 4 dogs to make them company and have fun times. Also my kids love dogs.

“My fiancée and I feel like we’ve hit the jackpot after adding Abi to our lives! She came to our home before our trip to meet us and our girls, ask plenty of questions, and see how the dogs responded to her presence. She is warm and patient, and even our super anxious/epileptic dog took to her quickly (a rare occurrence). She was meticulous in reviewing our care instructions for our needy crew (two dogs on several meds). She texted us pictures while we were away, asked follow up questions, and truly put our minds at ease seeing how much she cared for our girls. We can’t thank her enough for the ways she impressed us, and hope to have her return soon!”

“Dakota, this review is written also as my gratitude. Thank you again for all your time and attention to my dogs for such a very long time (12 days!). They were content and happy when I got back. And the house was spotless! (You didn’t have to clean up!) I felt safe leaving them with you and deeply appreciated your daily updates and photos. I hope you and Spam would be willing to help us out again in the future 😊!!”

“We could not be happier with our experience having Samantha as a house sitter - she went above and beyond! She shared multiple updates with pictures each day, left the house spotless, and even took our young pup for trail walks which she loves. We wouldn't hesitate to book her again or recommend her to other pet parents looking for a house sitter!”

Paige kept us updated throughout the week and sent pictures. We’ll definitely reach out to Paige anytime we need a sitter in the future so don’t hesitate to book her for your pup!”

“You want Mackenzie taking care of your fur babies. She's stayed with our pup before, and when our pup saw her again she was thrilled! This trip we even had a weird weather that closed schools and Mackenzie was great. She helped to calm our concerns when we were so far away. We will certainly use Mackenzie again.”

About: I’ve always had animals in my younger life from cats to dogs, and even though I only have a cat I continue to love dogs. My current housing situation allows me to share dog sitting and caring of his clients dogs (ages 9 months to 14 years) for the last ten years. Since then I have asked my neighbors for tending to the needs of their dogs be it from a 5 mile walk on and off leash to a 100 yard potty break in addition to giving medications. I’m currently working part time three days a week and an occasional Saturday, so I have the time to care and interact for your furry friend. I live in a neighborhood with easy access to the Rivanna trails and a road trip access to a farm with woods in Earlysville for running in fields. I also have a very tolerant cat who actually enjoys dogs staying with me because she’s learned that visiting dogs often get a treat she’s earned one too. My house has hardwood floors on the first floor throughout access to the carpeted lower level is through a door. The dog would have free range of the house while we were at home and unless he/she is accustomed to be crated.
