“Hillary was so good to me and my boys!! She eased my fears of leaving the boys and was in constant communication!! Will recommend her to anyone who asks!!!! The boys loved her!”


“Penny was absolutely amazing. She met us at a medical apt. and took Berkeley for a walk and short visit at her home before meeting us back following g the appointment. We could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you”


“We were so happy to leave our boy, Denver, with Jesse and Emily. Denver is almost 14 and so giving him the love and attention he’d get as the only dog in the home was really important to us, and not having to worry about him getting stressed out by younger dogs who constantly wanted to play for 6 days. We couldn’t have been happier. Denver was right at home, getting walks that he loves as well as plenty of chill time and attention from Jesse and Emily as well as their two girls. Jesse and Emily were great about sending us photo updates that let us know that Denver was comfy and happy. Denver is a finicky eater especially when not at home and they were great about paying attention and giving some treats here and there to get his appetite going. We would definitely leave Denver with them again!”


“Bree was great with Winter! She sent all the pictures and was really responsive. I had some travel changes and she was very accommodating for picking Winter up at a different time. Will definitely use Bree again if I need a sitter in Charlottesville!”

“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…”


“Maui’s stay with Hannah was awesome. From the moment I dropped my dog off, I could tell that Hannah was a total animal lover and that Maui was going to be in great hand My dog has anxiety issues and Hannah was great at administering his meds. Hannah sent many pictures to show me how happy Maui was during his stay. I will definitely check with Hannah again when going away and need an amazing dog sitter.”

We will be back whenever I am in town visiting friends. Thank you so much☺️”
