Svitlana was SO sweet and very patient with our shy boy, Enzo. She was very accommodating and easy to work with. Enzo is usually extremely reserved with new people, but it was clear that he immediately trusted her and felt comfortable with her. She was great with sending pictures of Enzo and keeping us updated. We would love to use her again in the future!

Hillary is a great sitter. A dog lover, she was so engaged and involved with our 2 Goldens during the week they stayed with her and her family. She sent multiple pictures, videos, and texts every day. The dogs were in great shape when we picked them up and it was clear that that they had been very well cared for. It is so comforting to know that your beloved pets are in good hands and Hillary exudes that type of confidence in her care. We are empty nesters and could tell from the videos and pics that the dogs loved playing with her children. I highly recommend Hillary!

About: I am definitely the biggest animal lover you will get to know! For years i’ve cared for and trained a wide range of animals wild and domestic. I’ve also worked in shelters and rescue centers to helped troubled dogs and cats. I have experience handling about every personality type of animal and sizes + quantities. Every animal I meet, I treat with the same love and care as my own fur babies. I cant wait to take care of your beloved furry friends!! I have plenty of time to dedicate to all the lovely animals i work with! Im a full time student in college but only enrolled in online classes so I have a very flexible schedule. I have 3 dogs of my own who I spend most my days with but I have also been fostering many dogs up until now. I can work with crate dogs, big, small, basically anything I am ready to take on. Im by the book so you tell me how you want things done and it’ll be exactly that way.

But after doing a meet and greet with Amy, we all felt good about boarding him for a couple of nights while we traveled. Amy too great care of Oscar and he seemed to fit in well with her pups and her cat. We heartily recommend Amy. So does Oscar.

I did a lot of homework and reviewing of boarders for my 1.5-year-old, 70 lb. Aussie/golden before landing on Robin because of her amazing reviews and years of experience. We had just had a terrible board and train situation leaving him with some pressure sores and anxiety. I am so glad I chose Robin though. She allowed me to come out a month before booking to see her facilities, get to know me and my pup, and to explain how his days would be going. Ollie looked so incredibly comfortable around her then I started calling our vacation his summer camp. She sent pictures almost daily of Ollie running around and playing with other pups. He came back to me 5 lb. lighter than before because of it (he needed it!) and I can also tell that she kept up with his training that we have been working on which I greatly appreciated. He actually looked disappointed to go home! We will of course be back and will tell everyone we know who needs a boarder! Thank you, Robin!

Casey is attentive and I never have to worry about my dog’s care. She sends updates, pictures and will reach out if there is a question. We will never use anyone else!

About: Hi! I’m a huge dog lover and offer a safe, calm, and thoughtful home environment for boarding. I take a lot of care in how I work with dogs because I know how much trust it takes to leave them with someone new. My goal is to make your dog’s stay feel comfortable, low-stress, and genuinely enjoyable, while giving you complete peace of mind. I use a science-based, force-free approach, focusing on reinforcing good behaviors and helping dogs feel confident and secure in a new environment. I’m happy to support training goals during their stay, including loose-leash walking, recall, desensitization, grooming tolerance, ignoring distractions (like food or other dogs), public access skills, and puppy or new dog basics. Whether or not your dog has specific goals, I reinforce consistent everyday manners to keep the visit smooth and positive. I’m very interested in dog behavior and training, so if there’s something specific you’re working on that I haven’t listed, I’d be excited to learn and support you and your pup! Hi! I’m a huge dog lover and offer a safe, calm, and thoughtful home environment for boarding. I know how important it is to trust someone with your dog. My goal is to make your dog’s stay feel as comfortable, low-stress, and enjoyable as possible, while giving you complete peace of mind. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent supervision, structured care, and individualized attention. In a new environment, rest is just as important as activity, so I’m intentional about giving dogs high-quality downtime tailored to their needs so they stay relaxed and well-regulated. I take time to understand each dog’s personality and provide the right balance of structure, activity, and rest. All care is fully customizable to your preferences, including routines, activity levels, and multiple sleeping arrangements to ensure your dog feels at home. I also like to set up a meet and greet beforehand to make sure it’s a great fit.

Im so glad I found Bertie and Lisette! They were gracious enough to accommodate my last-minute request and they are clearly pros at this. They were cognizant of keeping paws off the sidewalk in this heat and asked all the important questions. I’m always worried my pup will be sad the whole time I’m gone but her pups and their attentive care kept him smiling. I was so grateful to receive photos and videos while away too. Overall a great experience and I will definitely be back.

About: I’ve owned both dogs and cats and have cared for several family members’ pets for over 20 years! I’m a huge animal lover and miss having one of my own. I’m a stay-at-home-mom of 3 kids so I have plenty of time to walk and play! My schedule is extremely flexible and I’m available on weekends. I have an unfenced yard and live 20 feet from the Crozet trail system, right next to Claudius Crozet Park. We don’t have any pets of our own but my three kids (ages 4, 5 & 6) are very active and will play all day with your pet. My sister is a vet at Dominion Animal Hospital so I have immediate access to professional help if needed!

I’ve been bringing my dog to Vanessa and her family since November. They’ve taken Luna in as one of their own, and she always has a fantastic time. Quite literally pulls me to the house when we pull up! So thankful to find such a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter for my dog! Thank you both so much!!

About: I am definitely the biggest animal lover you will get to know! For years i’ve cared for and trained a wide range of animals wild and domestic. I’ve also worked in shelters and rescue centers to helped troubled dogs and cats. I have experience handling about every personality type of animal and sizes + quantities. Every animal I meet, I treat with the same love and care as my own fur babies. I cant wait to take care of your beloved furry friends!! I have plenty of time to dedicate to all the lovely animals i work with! Im a full time student in college but only enrolled in online classes so I have a very flexible schedule. I have 3 dogs of my own who I spend most my days with but I have also been fostering many dogs up until now. I can work with crate dogs, big, small, basically anything I am ready to take on. Im by the book so you tell me how you want things done and it’ll be exactly that way.

Svitlana did great with Otto's nervous mom (me). She sent plenty of photos, updates, and reassurance. Otto felt comfortable at the house during his doggie daycare stay. He was relaxed enough to eat, sleep, and play. I rarely have anyone watch Otto, but we'll return if Svitlana is available when needed in the future.

About: Hi, I’m Nadia, and welcome to my Woodland Paws Retreat! Woodland Paws Retreat is my home-based dog boarding business, located on five beautiful wooded acres in a peaceful country setting in Schuyler, Virginia. I proudly serve families in Charlottesville, Crozet, Scottsville, and the surrounding areas. Our spacious, natural surroundings are wonderful for dogs who enjoy fresh air, exploring, walking, running, playing, and simply relaxing in a peaceful environment. Whether your dog is playful or calm, young or senior, confident or a little shy, every dog is welcomed here with love, patience, and personalized attention. I love welcoming dogs into our home and making them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while they are away from their families. My priority is not only their safety, but also making sure they feel at home and enjoy their stay. When your best friend is in my care, you can relax knowing they are being treated like part of our family. I am currently working from home, so my schedule is flexible, and I have enough time to enjoy taking care of your furry friends giving them love, attention, providing exercise, and tailor each dog unique needs. Our home is surrounded by five beautiful wooded acres, creating a peaceful and private retreat where dogs can enjoy fresh air, exercise, and time in nature. We have plenty of space for dogs to play and exercise, including a large fenced area and a spacious fenced backyard deck. One of the favorite spots at our retreat is our screened balcony overlooking the woods. Dogs love relaxing there, watching birds and wildlife, and enjoying the peaceful sounds of nature. Many simply love to curl up and observe everything happening around them. Inside our home, there is plenty of comfortable space to play, relax, and spend time with us. Some of our guests even enjoy watching Dog TV while keeping us company. Most importantly, every dog receives plenty of individual attention, love, and supervision. I make it a priority to keep communication open with pet parents and send photos and updates throughout the day, so you can see how your best friend is doing. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a beloved family member, and I truly appreciate the trust you place in me. My goal is for you to travel with complete peace of mind, knowing your dog is safe, loved, and well cared for.

About: Your dog will be treated like part of the family while you're away. I intentionally keep my numbers low so every guest receives plenty of individualized attention and supervision. I'm a homeschool mom, homemaker, and lifelong dog lover. My husband, two daughters, and three dogs make our home a fun, safe, and loving environment where someone is home most of the day. 🐾 Meet & Greets Required I require a free meet-and-greet before accepting new clients to ensure we're a great fit for each other. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! As a homemaker, I'm present for the majority of the day, which allows me to provide consistent attention, potty breaks, and playtime throughout your dog's stay. Every dog adjusts differently, and I have the ability to tailor my routine accordingly. Your dog's comfort and safety are central to how I care for every guest. I closely supervise interactions between guest and resident dogs, and I take time to understand each dog's temperament and needs before allowing unsupervised play. Meals are served separately to maintain a calm environment and avoid food-related tension. I'm happy to follow your dog's established feeding schedule, medication routine, or any additional care instructions you provide. At bedtime, I do my best to replicate your dog's normal setup, whether that's a crate, a dog bed, or another familiar arrangement, so they feel settled and secure throughout their stay.

About: I’ve had a dog my entire life except for a few very lonely months in 2020 after I lost the love of my life, Romey, the naughtiest lab with the best sense of humor. I grew up with labs (mostly ) but now have Gizmo, a labrodoodle , who will soon become BDE (best dog ever) if he can finally learn how to not jump like a kangaroo when he sees his dog friends. I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was young. I’d walk, feed and love on my neighbors and friends pets. I hope I will be the one you call and who you can trust with your furry BFF. Whether you have a long day at work or a weekend vacation, I’ll be there for you! I work part time on the weekends up on the mountain and have lots of time during the week to help out with your dog! I have a fenced in play area in my back yard and crates, dog beds and a designated “dog room” where your pet can relax in solitude or with Gizmo!

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats for over 20 years, pets are my passion! I am also a former Petshotel and Doggie Day Camp Manager for a national chain and have extensive experience handling dogs, cats, and small pets of all sizes and breeds. I am currently accepting small and medium sized dogs for in house day care and overnight stays. I specialize in small and delicate breed types, not usually suited for kenneling or vet boarding. All fur babies will be treated as family members while here! They can sit on the couch, sleep on the bed, and watch TV with us just like at home. Some larger "gentle giants" can be considered on a case by case basis, just reach out. I believe pets are family! All pets in my care are treated with loving and gentle guidance using only positive reinforcement. All dogs will remain on leash the entirety of their walk. We have a fenced in area off the back patio for bathroom breaks with wood chips as ground coverage. No grass of any kind for the safety of those pets with grass and skin allergies.

Dakota connects well with our dog Patrick and is able to re-direct him when he wants to just turn around and come home. Our pup can be just one small ball of over excitement and exuberance and they handle that well. Dakota has been very reliable and always lets me know if he needs to adjust the time a bit.

About: I've always had dogs in my home growing up and love nothing more than our furry best friends. While my current life doesn't allow me to have a pet of my own, I would love to help connect with and take care of yours! I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds from the smallest puppy to the sweetest senior. Plus, as a photographer, I'll be happy to send lots of pics of your pet while I'm caring for them! My schedule fluctuates depending on the time of year, but I will keep my availability updated on my profile. I am best suited to assisting with midday walks or short petsitting stays. My apartment has plenty of space for your pet to roam as well as a 16,000 square foot fenced in dog park right outside my front door. If I'm house-sitting for you, my goal is to keep your pets happy in their own environment and space.

About: I am comfortable with all kinds of dogs and needs. I personally care for a GSD and a Heeler mix, and am comfortable with rambunctious and large dogs. Both of my dogs practice loose leash walking, and I love using our walks as time to tire their brains as well as their bodies. I can give medications, including subq and other injections. And I’m working on becoming a certified trainer, but for now I do not offer training services. I work a few part time gigs that change with the seasons. I have lots of flexibility to meet the needs of your pets. I generally do not go out of town during major holidays. I have lived on estates as a property manager, and ran my own home repair business for several years. I’m good at handling emergencies, and enjoy fixing things when I have the opportunity

About: Hi! I’m a huge dog lover and offer a safe, calm, and thoughtful home environment for boarding. I take a lot of care in how I work with dogs because I know how much trust it takes to leave them with someone new. My goal is to make your dog’s stay feel comfortable, low-stress, and genuinely enjoyable, while giving you complete peace of mind. I use a science-based, force-free approach, focusing on reinforcing good behaviors and helping dogs feel confident and secure in a new environment. I’m happy to support training goals during their stay, including loose-leash walking, recall, desensitization, grooming tolerance, ignoring distractions (like food or other dogs), public access skills, and puppy or new dog basics. Whether or not your dog has specific goals, I reinforce consistent everyday manners to keep the visit smooth and positive. I’m very interested in dog behavior and training, so if there’s something specific you’re working on that I haven’t listed, I’d be excited to learn and support you and your pup! Hi! I’m a huge dog lover and offer a safe, calm, and thoughtful home environment for boarding. I know how important it is to trust someone with your dog. My goal is to make your dog’s stay feel as comfortable, low-stress, and enjoyable as possible, while giving you complete peace of mind. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent supervision, structured care, and individualized attention.

I take time to understand each dog’s personality and provide the right balance of structure, activity, and rest. All care is fully customizable to your preferences, including routines, activity levels, and multiple sleeping arrangements to ensure your dog feels at home. I also like to set up a meet and greet beforehand to make sure it’s a great fit.

She sent multiple pictures, videos, and texts every day. The dogs were in great shape when we picked them up and it was clear that that they had been very well cared for. It is so comforting to know that your beloved pets are in good hands and Hillary exudes that type of confidence in her care. We are empty nesters and could tell from the videos and pics that the dogs loved playing with her children. I highly recommend Hillary!

Amy took care of our pup, Oscar, for The first time this week. We seldom board him. But after doing a meet and greet with Amy, we all felt good about boarding him for a couple of nights while we traveled. Amy too great care of Oscar and he seemed to fit in well with her pups and her cat. We heartily recommend Amy. So does Oscar.

This was our first time using Mark and Daniel for our furbabies Sadie and Saul. We received multiple updates and pictures during their stay. They seemed very attentive to our dogs needs. We would highly recommend them for anyone looking for a dog sitter. We will definitely use them again!!

Aly was great and Rory had an amazing time! She sent us lots of pictures and kept us updated on her the whole time. She was also super flexible when our flight got delayed and we had to pick her up late. All around wonderful experience!

I did a lot of homework and reviewing of boarders for my 1.5-year-old, 70 lb. Aussie/golden before landing on Robin because of her amazing reviews and years of experience. We had just had a terrible board and train situation leaving him with some pressure sores and anxiety. I am so glad I chose Robin though. She allowed me to come out a month before booking to see her facilities, get to know me and my pup, and to explain how his days would be going. Ollie looked so incredibly comfortable around her then I started calling our vacation his summer camp. She sent pictures almost daily of Ollie running around and playing with other pups. He came back to me 5 lb. lighter than before because of it (he needed it!) and I can also tell that she kept up with his training that we have been working on which I greatly appreciated. He actually looked disappointed to go home! We will of course be back and will tell everyone we know who needs a boarder! Thank you, Robin!

Jenny was kind and competent with Otto. She sent many pictures and we could see that he was totally comfortable and enjoying the company of the other dogs (and horses!).

Casey does a fantastic job! She watches Milo every year when we go on vacation. Milo loves going there and has so much fun and attention I think he doesn’t care how long he stays. Casey is attentive and I never have to worry about my dog’s care. She sends updates, pictures and will reach out if there is a question. We will never use anyone else!

Cory did such an amazing job with our dog Juno! Despite it being her first time staying with him, she warmed up quickly to him and his family and had a great time. Cory sent a pic with a comment each day, which helps so much when you miss your pup! We would not hesitate to board Juno again with Cory- I highly recommend him!

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.

Laura kept our 9-month old, 70lb 'puppy' for a week and we had a great experience. Laura was prompt, easy to deal with and kept in regular touch with us while we were away. Our dog had a learning curve to contend with - it was her first Rover experience and her first time living around other dogs. Laura handled it all without complaint . She provides lots of room to run, play and be free at her space.

Sofia kept me posted on what and how my dog was doing, Althea, a 4 year old Labradoodle (who looks like a chocolate lab) Althea was in great shape and happy when I picked her up. I would definitely use Sophie again, and highly recommend her!

Gretchen was incredibly responsive, supportive, & communicative — especially for a last-minute request. If I’m in the area again and need a dog sitter, I will definitely reach out; the care from her community of neighbors was incredible! I particularly appreciated their transparency & consideration for Bugs’ needs.

We’ve used Ashley before and completely trust her with our furry boy. She has done an incredible job at bonding with him and making sure to send updates everyday while we were away. We would recommend her 1000% and super happy to have a sitter we trust, Thanks Ashley!
