Dog Boarding The Meadows

“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.”

“Danielle took my last minute request to board Luna at her house. She was an AMAZING sitter. When we met her (since this was our first time meeting) she had a pen and paper ready to write down what Luna needed. Throughout her stay, Danielle sent lots of adorable pictures of play time and it made me feel at peace knowing Luna was in good hands. Her messages provided lots of updates with how Luna was doing and any pet who has her as a sitter is blessed to have found her!”

“Laura is awesome. She is flexible and is very accommodating to your schedule for pick up/drop off times. She sent lots of pictures of our pups playing throughout the day. I’m rebooking every time with 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.

“We cannot express enough how thankful we are to Tyler for watching our fur baby the weekend of our wedding in Charlottesville! He was super attentive and stayed in communication with us throughout the weekend, constantly providing us with updates and pictures. During a weekend with a lot of moving parts, we knew our dog was safe, and loving life with Tyler. Cannot recommend enough and will definitely rebook the next time we’re in Charlottesville ☺️❤️”

“Tamara was AWESOME! Gizmo had a great stay with her and was extremely relaxed when I picked him up. She was able to watch him at short notice as well and even washed his food and water bowls for me!”

“Tiffanie was beyond amazing! Her kindness and love of animals was evident during our first "meet and greet." Leaving my anxious GSD was a concern, but Tiffanie's confident and compassionate manner easily quelled any fears. Tiffanie updated me daily with pics and provided daily walks in the park with my fur baby! Most noteworthy, however, was my pooch had reemerging symptoms appear of a recent medical condition and Tiffanie handled it compassionately and without complaint! She was a true blessing to both me and my pooch! I HIGHLY recommend her.”

“Brandy always takes good care of our doggie and sends lots of pictures while we're away. He's always happy when we get to her house so she's doing something right! 😁 She is quick to respond to questions and very flexible with drop off and pick up. Great sitter!”

“Dorothy was very welcoming to my dog Buddy! He has separation anxiety, but seemed very much at home as soon as we arrived! I know that they took care of Buddy like their own, and he was in very good spirits when I picked him up! Thanks again, and it’s good to know that I can have someone I can rely on!”
