“She was great! I left my pup with her for two weeks and she sent me updates of him daily. She even bathed him 3 times and I was happy that he also had other dogs to play with and kept him busy. I definitely recommend her and will be coming back for my future trips 😁”

“Mich was awesome! Our dog felt welcomed and comfortable during her stay. Mich’s dog, Milo, was a good companion/ host. Great back yard. Mich sent pictures and regular updates. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”

“Call Pamela and their dog Marlowe were great hosts for our spaniel, Jewelie. They have a lovely fence backyard and the dogs played a lot everyday they took very personalized care of her and we would love to bring her back sometime!”

“I am thrilled to give Sheri a 5-star review for taking care of my pet, Happy, during boarding! Sheri went above and beyond to ensure Happy's comfort and happiness. I was particularly impressed with the regular updates she sent, complete with photos, to keep me informed and at ease. Her dedication, attention to detail, and love for animals truly shine through. I am so grateful to have found such a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Sheri, for taking such wonderful care of Happy! I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking top-notch pet care.”

“Dawn was so sweet taking care of my puppy! It was my first time leaving him for an extended period of time and Dawn made the whole experience completely stress free! I got pictures and updates 3 times a day and it was evident that Willie was having a great time :) I can’t recommend Dawn highly enough!”

“Laura was fantastic! She sent updates and pictures everyday. Nellie had the most fun with Laura and her family. I loved how they really adopted Nellie into the family for the week!”

About: I have two amazing dogs, Milo and Winter, that play constantly! They are best of friends and always welcome new friends. Milo is an 8 month old puppy still learning house training and making amazing progress. I found him at a rescue in Philly when I was visiting March 2026- love at first site! He clicked so well with my German Shepherd mix Winter, that I rescued in June 2025. Prior to falling in love with these two rescues, I helped foster several dogs through a local rescue- while healing from the loss of my dog of 13 years, Bella. She was a one dog household kind of girl, but Winter was just the opposite. I could tell she needed a friend, and Milo came into our lives at just the right time. I so look forward to helping care for your fur babies and will give them all the walks, plays, and cuddles they might need. I’ll ensure all your care is personalized to your dog’s specific needs. Also, would love to send you pic updates while you’re at work or adventuring! If your dog is in my care for doggy daycare, I will be home with them, unless otherwise discussed with you. If I’m hired to come walk your dog, I’ll give you a detailed update of our walk! I am home and available 7 days a week, unless I’m traveling. My dogs get lots of attention and walks. We love the James River Park system 🫶 I will ask for lots of detail about your pets specific needs so I can curate their care so they feel right at home! A home away from home.

“This is the first time I used Rover and left Hercules to be taken care by someone who was not part of the family. He is a senior and very into his ways so I was apprehensive about how he would take it. From the photos Cyndi provides daily I could tell in the first day he was relaxed and really into Cyndi. She took a great care of him and it was great to have daily updates and a place where he does need to share with other dogs. I would highly recommend Cyndi and I will definitely book more stays with her.”

“Can’t say it enough, Matt is great! I had to make a last minute change to Sawyer’s stay. Matt worked it out and made the process seamless and stress-free. Highly recommended!”

“Julie really put me at ease and payed attention to details. I appreciated the way she introduced Nacho to her house and her cats, it showed she cared. I also really liked that she kept in contact via pics and messages. Nacho will definitely be staying with Julie again! ”
About: Call me Libby :) Dogs are my absolute passion in life! I was raised in a home with dogs and I’ve been a personal pet owner for over 10 years. I have experience raising and fostering puppies, seniors, and everything in between! I’ve had dogs in hospice care, with special needs, medical issues, etc. I have basic training skills and there are no stairs in my home in case your dog can’t use them. I have a large fenced in yard for play time or sunbathing in a safe and quiet neighborhood. They will be treated as if they are my own and loved on for every minute they are in my care! I run my own business so my work hours are flexible. I never leave the home for more than 4-5 hours at the absolute maximum. My 2 dogs and I go on evening walks everyday (after it’s cooled off in the summer time) and lots of outdoor time in between. My life revolves around my dogs needs so yours will fit in perfectly! I have a large fenced in yard and crates of different sizes if you need or want them to be crated. I have two friendly dogs so your baby will never be alone. My youngest dog will be a loving companion to your pet and make sure they feel like they’re at home. Whether that’s playing or napping, he will fall in love with them instantly!
“Dewi and I have had a wonderful first experience boarding with Alex! I was out of the country for two weeks, but always could tell form the updates, photos and videos that my gentle old man was in the best of care. Especially loved seeing him get special attention on his 15th birthday! Alex has much experience with all types of dogs, and it shows. Very professional. Thank you so much!”
“Amy is so attentive to PJ! She bakes him little treats, makes him get out of bed, and really gets him moving! I always notice he's a little more wiped out after I pick him up, which is a good thing! We love Amy!”


“Luna frequents Laura’s quite a bit but this was her longest stay and it was such a peace of mind to us being across the country knowing she was at her home away from home. The pictures Laura sent throughout the week showed she was having the happiest vacation herself 😎🐾”

“Cassandre and her family always treat our dogs so well. She provides updates and photos during their stay and they always come home happy. We highly recommend Cassandre!”

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Ashley was great with Snickerdoodle. She is very thoughtful and attentive to details. We could instantly see that she loves animals :). As a bonus, she sent us super cute pictures/updates while we were away. I highly recommend Ashley!”


“Jeffery, as advertised, is chill and he is WONDERFUL. Definitely a dog lover and really cared for our pup. Perfect with communication and sending pics and updates.”

“Michaela was AMAZING! So sweet and attentive to Violet, and sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. She administered Violet’s medications and special food three times a day with no issues and made everything feel effortless. Michaela was also very easy to schedule with and super responsive with communication. We’re so grateful to have found her and will definitely be booking with her again!”


“Hillary always does an amazing job when watching stout. She sends pictures and always updates us on his status. We never have to worry when he is with her. We trust her and will always Use Hillary when she is available!”

Elizabeth was amazing! She sent daily photos, videos, and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was extremely communicative and clearly cared about Nacho like he was her own. Nacho especially loved spending time with Peanut—they wrestled and played nonstop day and night! Knowing he was safe, happy, and having so much fun made all the difference for us. We would absolutely book with Elizabeth again. Thank you for taking such great care of our boy!

Linsen & Gr. are my hands down favorite doggie sitters. They are communicative, send amazing pics (better than anything I can take), have a fabulous yard and treat my dogs like an auntie and uncle. They book quick…so you got to plan ahead. They deserve every dollar and every tip! Will always pick first.

Excellent caregiver—highly recommended. I’m very happy I chose Doris because, from the day she met Princess, she showed her so much love and attention. Princess is an older dog who loves being around people, and that’s exactly what she experienced with Doris—she truly felt at home. Doris was excellent and always stayed in touch, sending beautiful photos and videos of Princess. I will definitely hire her again. Doris, I wish you much success, and thank you again for taking such loving care of Princess—that’s exactly what we look for when we need someone to care for our pets. Blessings.

I’ll leave as many glowing reviews for Lauren and Colin as I can! They just watched our dog, Haley, for 10 days and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Lauren is extremely communicative, shares several photos throughout the day, and asks questions if needed. I’m a worrywart but when Haley is with Lauren I’m totally relaxed. I’m lowkey worried Haley won’t want to leave all of her buddies and come home. Can’t recommend Lauren enough!

Elana was wonderful and we are so lucky she was able to help us with a last minute holiday boarding for our older dog! She went above and beyond to make sure our dog was comfortable and happy and even shared her own dog's new toys with our dog on Christmas so that he would be happy and less anxious. She was extremely communicative and asked good questions beforehand that we appreciated since it was clear she had been around dogs a lot and knew how to keep them safe, happy, and well cared for. She sent us regular updates and pictures and even accommodated a last minute request to extend the stay a day longer. Would recommend.
