“Hank came home exhausted which means he had a blast. Cynthia did a great job in every Dept from communication to updates throughout the weekend. We were extremely pleased with her work.”

“This was our first time leaving Pepe with a sitter and our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous, you never really know who you’re leaving your dog with. But Riley was exceptional from the very beginning. Even before I booked her, she helped me figure out how the app worked and made the whole process easy. During Pepe’s stay, she kept me 100% informed at all times with photos, videos, and messages. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and professional. I truly felt peace of mind knowing Pepe was in her hands. I have no doubt he was well cared for, and I would absolutely book her again. Thank you so much, Riley, for treating Pepe like your own dog, we truly appreciate it.”

“Our doodle had a great visit with Christine and Charles. We received regular updates and pictures on how everything was going. Their location & setup provides everything a pet needs. Looking forward to using their services in the future.”

“Julie and her family took wonderful care of Willa! She got to go on plenty of walks and enjoyed lots of snuggles. Julie sent pictures and was easy to communicate with. Willa came home happy and we will definitely book with her again!”

“My two Beagles loved staying with Heather!!! She kept in close contact and sent lots of great pictures. They can be a handful at times but she definitely took it in stride and was willing to do whatever to make sure they were happy. They got a ton of walks and came home totally exhausted. Can’t say enough wonderful things about Heather and her family!”
“James was easy to work with, flexible, and quick to respond. We have used Rover in several cities and are so grateful to find a reliable sitter like James in this area. Joe is already looking forward to his next vacation!”
“Caroline took great care of our boy while we were on a long vacation! We got tons of updates and pictures and our dog seemed happy and tired when we got back.”

“Angel seemed very happy to stay with Indira for a week. Indira was flexible and accommodating with my work travel and her place was clean, organized, and a good calm space for my pup. She reached out when Angel was having a hard time and was able to resolve the issue quickly with some feedback. Would definitely use her again.”

“As always, Bucky was so well cared for with Jani & Paul. We are so happy to have found this home away from home for him! I would definitely recommend them to anyone.”


“Kailee was absolutely amazing with my Doberman puppy! She boarded her for 3 days and gave her the best care I could have asked for. Athena came home happy, tired (in the best way), and clearly so well loved. Kailee made sure she got all her energy out with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and treats. Her dogs also gave Athena great company and kept her entertained, which made me feel even more comfortable leaving her. Having two acres of land for the dogs to run and play on was such a huge bonus, it gave Athena so much space to explore and burn energy safely. It’s clear Kailee truly cares about the dogs she watches, and I will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter! :)”


“Once again Camp Hope & Loretta was such a wonderful respit for us and such an awesome time to socialize for Biscuit. I really believe the chance to hang out with her is so helpful. Thank you Hope!!!🐾🐾🐾🐾”

“Nana is great with Mo! Nana communicates well, and he was flexible with my trip schedule. This is my second time boarding Mo with Nana and will book for other needs in the future.”

About: I’ve always had animals growing up. My family bred Saint Bernards, so I have experience with animals of all sizes and ages. I loved helping take care of them, but have been unable since I moved for college. I am really excited to meet your pets. I’m currently working part-time with a very flexible job. I can do anytime as long as I have about a weeks notice prior. Thank you! I have a fenced in court-yard and currently have no pets, so your pet is my number 1 priority. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment with plenty of space for your animals!
“Yana is amazing! She took such great care of my dog and sent daily pictures and updates which gave me peace of mind that he was happy and healthy while I was away. Highly recommend her!”

About: I've been taking care of animals of all kinds since I was 12! I started volunteering early with a local humane society and have been active in rescues ever since. I have also fostered dogs from two months-10 years old, including medical fosters, so I'm comfortable giving pets medicine if need be. I currently work at UVA in their communications office, where I have a lot of flexibility, especially on Thursdays and Fridays when I work remotely. I'm available most weekends and many holidays! I live in a shared house with a unfenced backyard and a couple of roommates, both of whom love dogs! There's a trail near me that I enjoy walking dogs on if they are OK with other people/dogs. Otherwise, I take dogs on walks once or twice daily.
“Paige was great with our senior little dog. In addition to providing a safe and welcoming (temporary) home for our Ruthy. She provided regular updates w/pictures and even gave us a homemade holiday treat at pick up. We appreciate her prompt responses, welcoming atmosphere and safe environment. She helped take a lot of the stress out of holiday travel.”


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.
“I had to find a dog sitter while I was overseas because the person who was taking care of my dog couldn’t do it anymore. Brooke was very responsive and accommodating, and took good care of Rain. I would recommend her to others.”
