“Hillary was fantastic! Whaley stayed with her for 10 days and we received continuous communication and pictures. He was even hesitant to leave her house when we went to pick him up because he was so happy there.”


“This is our second time booking with Cynthia. Good communication and updates with pictures and photos, but more importantly you can tell she really cares. Harley has come out happy each time and we will definitely keep using Cynthia in the future.”


“Kendyl was amazing. She updated me regularly. Took my dog on a trail. She introduced my puppy to a world he has never seen. Like chickens, children. Thank you so much kendel.”


“Anatoliy has a lovely property for boarding. She asked thoughtful questions and got a great sense for him so we knew he would be happy. He seemed right at home and probably thought it was a big playdate!”


“This was my first time leaving my 8 month old puppy since I got him. He is a pretty anxious dog, which made me an anxious mother. Clayton and Brittany were great; they were unfazed by his quirks, and allowed him space to adjust. Apparently he adjusted just fine; climbing into laps. They have a large fenced yard and two lively dogs; such a fun, busy weekend for my pup! I highly recommend them…”


“Mairany was excellent in every way! Great communication, and she made us feel very comfortable that Zoey was in good hands! If we are ever in the area again, we would certainly want to book with Mairany again!”


“Beth was fantastic. We had never left our girl for so long but she made it super easy…sending pics and updates on a regular basis. We will definitely be using Beth again!!”


“Scott and Sarah are the best dog sitters! Cassie loves visiting them. They are super attentive, great with communication, and truly it is a home away from home for Cassie. This was our third visit with them and we will keep using them as needed. Do not hesitate to book with them.”


“My dear pet stayed the weekend with Joanna and Travis. They took excellent care of her, sent photos and updates. They provide a safe and happy place for dog boarding. I highly recommend them. They are great people.”


“Amanda was great! She was communicative and sent us adorable photos of our boy throughout his stay. Our boy was treated like family and became best friends with her dog. I truly appreciate how much love he received while we were away!”


“Brandy is amazing! Valley always enjoys herself when she’s over there. Brandy updates constantly and sends photos to you with the updates. She was also very helpful with letting me pick my dog up later than I expected to be in town!”


“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!”


“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!”


“Thank you for providing such kindness and attentiveness to my Ellie girl! I can tell she felt very comfortable being with your family, and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing she was in such good hands. Would definitely board with you again the future!”


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: As an amid animal lover, I pride myself in ensuring I provide the best care for every type of animal. With 4+ years of experience caring for my own pets, as well as housesitting and pet sitting for family/friends, I am confident your furry friend will not only have the best time, but will be in great hands. I work PRN at the hospital with almost every weekend off. With days off during the week as well, my schedule is super flexible to accommodate most needs! I provide all animals under my care with exclusive 1 on 1 attention and care. I only accept a certain amount of pets per day to ensure every animal gets the care they deserve!
