“Bryana was so sweet with our pup and very communicative. She accommodated our last minute request, and we will definitely be reaching out again in the future. Thank you Bryana!”

“Lauren took excellent care of my cats, especially an elderly one of mine who also needed injections. She was also available at very short notice even though I was a new client. She did a wonderful job and I would definitely recommend her to anyone that needs someone to care for their animals.”

About: Animals have been a passion in my life as far back as I can remember. I am a pitbull mama who fell in love with the breed in my early 20s. I learned about their breed by raising a pitbull mama and daddy and their three babies. That pack shaped me into who I am today. I have worked at a pet boarding facility many years ago, and have worked at both the Charlottesville Albemarle SPCA and the Fluvanna SPCA. My husband and I currently own 8 pit bulls and 6 cats. Let’s not forget the ducks and chickens! I can promise you that I will take the best care of your best friend, and treat them like my own providing them with lots of love and enrichment. I am available certain Saturdays and sometimes on Sundays. We can look at schedules on a case by case basis and customize based on individual needs. All of our dogs have GPS tracking collars on as well as invisible fence security. Our cats have Apple tags on them for safety. All of our cats and dogs are indoor animals. Safety is the most important thing to me and I assure you I will make sure I am the safest I can be with your pet.

“Lisa took such amazing care of my little Rotisserie. She always shows up on time, takes fantastic pictures, and Rotisserie really appreciated her cuddles and play time! Highly recommend Lisa as a sitter. Thank you again!”


“Brayleigh is absolutely the best and so caring! She is extremely responsible--right from the initial meet and greet and continuing the entire 12 days she cared for my cat. Everyday, Brayleigh provided a little commentary about what Shadow did that day that made me smile! I am calling her again to care for my furry kids and to see when she can also watch/walk/care for my little 4 lb toy poodle. I am so incredibly lucky to have found her on Rover.”

I will make sure your furry friend has everything they need, all the exercise and love they could ask for. I exercise my own dog for a minimum of two hours a day. We go to parks, play frisbee, go to the dog park, and go for long hikes! I also have a nice backyard to play in.

I have a pretty open schedule currently. Please let me know how I can help! Happy to. I am more than happy to come stay at your home or I can bring them to mine! Either way we’re going for walks! Haha

About: I have spent decades caring for dogs—many of them rescues with complex or traumatic histories. I understand that every animal experiences the world differently, and I take the time to learn their individual cues, comfort levels, and needs. I offer in-home pet sitting and structure my schedule around your pet’s established routine. Feeding times, walks, medication, exercise, and downtime are kept consistent to minimize stress while you’re away. I am available for overnight and extended stays. I prioritize clear communication and provide regular updates so you feel confident your home and animals are in good hands.

“My dog had such a great time with Bertie while I was on vacation, she probably didn’t even notice I was gone. Seeing the pictures of their day together made me happy and I will rebook in the future!”

“Tamara was amazing in a really stressful situation with our pup when he ran outside and hid from her. She was communicative, found a solution, and ensured they were safe and home quickly. We are so thankful knowing she cares for our dogs like they were her own!”


“Kyle and Meagan were fantastic! They took Luna to the park and wore her out for a drop by visit! They sent plenty of photos which I loved! It was nice to know Luna was taken care of while I was at work and before my boyfriend got home. Thank you so much!”

About: I have so much love for all animals, and my passion is to give them the same love they give us every day! Unconditional. Their happiness is my happiness, and therefore yours! I work part time as a nanny/personal assistant and I have all my weekends free! I will mostly be available on weekends and afternoons during the week. I can crate your dog if needed, or take your dog on a walk, feed them, play with them, let them out to potty, or simply give them lots of affection, and snuggles! I will let your cat in or out depending of what you need, and clean their litter box etc...snuggles included!
About: I have spent my life taking care of dogs, cats, and small farm animals. I love all animals and go into any new interaction with them lovingly and responsibly. We are the go-to for dog info for family and friends, we love helping keep puppers in their furever homes. My wife is in the business of pet adoption, and my sister-in-law is the CEO of an adoption agency. My life is dogs, cats, and small farm animals. I will treat you pet as I treat my own. We have 7 dogs that need to be fed, walked, and loved on every day. They get their teeth brushed every morning, baths once a week, and exercise time in the pool, weather permitting. Our animals are our life and we are always on the lookout for pets in need so they can get a furever home too. I will greet your pets responsibly, and make sure they get enough time to do their business. Of course, there will be pets and treats, as all dogs are good dogs, some are just misunderstood.
“Haley was great! We had her check in on our dog who recently had puppies. We couldn’t ask for better care and communication throughout the process. I highly recommend Haley as a dogsitter!”


About: I have a large family dog that I have been responsible for since I was about 10 years old. She has since gotten older so I have experience with a senior dog and giving any sorts of medication (and the peanut butter necessary to get her to take it). I am no stranger to having to clean up any accidents in the house so that is a non-issue for me. I am also open to taking care of other animals like rodents or turtles or other cage creatures. I am a true and passionate animal lover! My schedule is very flexible at the moment. I am happy to give as much or little time needed for the pets. I can figure out any scheduling and details necessary with clients. I am never loud coming into a home. I always let the pets come to me unless they are hiding on purpose. I take care instructions very seriously and will follow everything exactly and will reach out if I have questions about the best way I can care for your fur friend.
“Danielle was absolutely perfect!! She took great care of our sweet kitty Bijou, and even came to meet us beforehand!! We will definitely be using her services again, and highly recommend!!”

About: I have 2 dogs, and have had lots of different pets growing up. I have cat and dog sat for family and neighbors.

I am available some full days of the week, every morning, mid day, or overnight. I am currently not able to bring client pets to my home. I am able to go to client houses during the day or overnight as needed.
