“Another great doggie day care day for our pup. It's been so helpful to give her a day out with other pups socializing and running out some energy. Charissa makes scheduling so easy.”

“Paula took excellent care of our dog Loki. We were visiting from out of town and need a place for Loki while we visited older relatives. Paula was good with communication and Loki came back all happy. Definitely recommend!”

“Zach was a great host. Fun to work with, lover of animals and awesome personality. I needed a daycare time that was earlier than the usual window of notice. Zach was able to accommodate with no problem. Excellent customer service!”

“Izzy was tired as all get out. She loves it at Carolyn’s. Carolyn got some of the best photos that I will have forever. Another great weekend as always.”

“Rebecca was amazing! She met with me before watching my dogs and she was very loving and attentive to both of them. She kept me informed about how they did while I was gone and kept the report card up-to-date. She left my house very clean and she was very respectful. I would definitely use her again!”

“Mary and her family did such an amazing job taking care of Buttercup. I definitely felt very comfortable each day and prior to booking. Mary worked with my early morning drop offs and long work hours which is much appreciated. The frequent pictures and updates were an added bonus. I definitely look forward to booking in the future! Thank you so much again”

“She’s one of the best sitters that I’ve ever had. She has everything therefore your dog she’s a great sitter.”

“Rachel is great!! She was thorough with communications. I was on a tight schedule and we decided to meet up for the drop off and pick up. She was on time and ready to go! Ziggy is still very much a puppy and has a ton of energy. He spent the day with Rachel and I could tell he had so much fun because he was happy and healthy, but completely worn out. Thanks so much to Rachel for taking great care of my pup. Highly recommend!!!”

“Jessica is amazing!!! Our dog Lou had a blast staying at her house for the day! She loved playing in the yard with Jessica’s dog and another dog she was caring for. I couldn’t be happier to know Lou is in her care knowing she’s getting lots of cuddles and playtime. Thank you Jessica!!”

“Such a sweet hearted lady!!”

“Kirtly was very responsive, and gave a ton of feedbacks on the daycare session with our two dogs, one of which a 2 month old puppy. Will definitely book with Kirtly again.”

“Kyle and Meagan were absolutely AWESOME! They even got my grumpy guy to have fun. That never happens, never. We are on vacation and it was a great burden lifted to know that there are such great people to leave our dogs with! Thank you guys so much!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats for over 20 years, pets are my passion! I am also a former Petshotel and Doggie Day Camp Manager for a national chain and have extensive experience handling dogs, cats, and small pets of all sizes and breeds. I am currently accepting small and medium sized dogs for in house day care and overnight stays. I specialize in small and delicate breed types, not usually suited for kenneling or vet boarding. All fur babies will be treated as family members while here! They can sit on the couch, sleep on the bed, and watch TV with us just like at home. Some larger "gentle giants" can be considered on a case by case basis, just reach out. I believe pets are family! All pets in my care are treated with loving and gentle guidance using only positive reinforcement. All dogs will remain on leash the entirety of their walk. We have a fenced in area off the back patio for bathroom breaks with wood chips as ground coverage. No grass of any kind for the safety of those pets with grass and skin allergies.

“Amazing experience with Madison and Ryan! We needed last minute daycare for our two dogs and they were able to help us on the spot within the day. They provided great care for our pups which were relaxed and happy at pickup! Absolutely recommend choosing them to care for your fur babies!!”

“I have known Tamara and her family for approximately a year now and she is the only person in Lake Monticello I would trust to walk or provided drop in services for our two large breed dogs! Tamara is the ideal person you can have to care for your furry family members! She has a background working at the Charlottesville SPCA and is well versed in all pet care needs. Tamara is honest, dependable, kind, and follows directions well! She will care for your pet when you need her to and how you need need her to. Do yourself a favor and stop scrolling and book with Tamara!”

“Been was reassuring, relaxed and very positive on Roy Kent's first visit there for day care. I felt comfortable leaving him and RK had an outstanding day. We will be back to Ben and Sequioa's for sure!”

“Laura took great care of Lulu, sent updates throughout the day, and provided us with the cutest dog report card at the end of her stay. We would 100% choose Laura to watch Lulu any day.”

“Tina was so wonderful! I was a bit nervous going in as this was the first time I was leaving my 8 month old puppy with someone that I did not know. We set up a meet and greet during which my pup, Maizy displayed some anxiety, but Tina was not deterred. She knew Maizy needed to warm up at her pace and she got some treats right away to help build up some trust! She sent pictures and really helped me feel at ease that Maizy was well cared for! There was even a storm that rolled by which Maizy is terrified of thunder and Tina helped her feel safe! I would definitely book with her again should we need it!”

“Happy pup and wonderful people! Thank you so much. Do not hesitate to book with Nora and Aaron. They will take exceptional care of your fur baby :)”

About: I can't promise your pet(s) won't be spoiled! One level home with a playmate, our 17 yr old Dora, a 15 year old, sweet old aussie shepherd. I am retired and dogs are my passion. I am located in the George's Tavern area of Goochland. I am usually home daily. My schedule is flexible. We have a very large fenced yard. Your dog(s) will have room to explore inside and out. We can discuss any special needs. I have experience with all shapes, sizes and breeds, however, as much as I love them, I cannot handle bigger and stronger breeds; i.e., American bull dogs, pit bulls, great danes and German shepherds to name a few. Your dogs are my daily priority. I can schedule any time daily and I am open to a long-term boarding commitment when I am available. I have an additional smaller fenced area for smaller dogs and puppies. I have customers that found me through other avenues, and have outstanding reviews as I appear to have become Grandma to them. All will provide references. I give lots of time and attention to all dogs giving special loving attention to the aging beauties. They all need lots of love and often need special care.
