“This is my second time taking my pup to Robin and brought along a friends dog for a puppy play date weekend. I felt completely comfortable with Robin and I know my dogs felt the same way. Robin feels like an old friend at this point and will be the only place I bring Ollie now.”

“We are very picky about with whom we leave our lab Jack. Meeting Danielle in person was very reassuring because she is a combination of energy and friendliness. I suspect Jack had as much fun playing with Danielle's dogs as we did on our mini-getaway. We intend to use Danielle in the future as the need arises and we give her our highest recommendation. I don't always leave online reviews but my wife and I really like Danielle.”
“Ellie had another awesome stay last week. I am so glad to be able to leave my little houndy girl with Katina, who treats her like part of her own family. Thanks! Highly recommended without reservations of any kind. Brian”

“Jasmine was awesome with my doggie babies!! My Wally was very anxious and she done very well with him! I would recommend her to anyone! She sent me updates and pics every day!!! Loved her! My babies looked happy!”

“I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Nadia! 😊 Nadia took care of my sweet pup for several days while I was away, and I couldn’t have asked for a more loving, caring, and thoughtful person to look after her! I absolutely loved receiving pictures and updates every day. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my girl was happy, safe, and in such wonderful hands. Nadia went above and beyond to make sure she was well-fed, spoiled with yummy treats, and had plenty of playtime to keep her mentally and physically stimulated. Her home was absolutely perfect, with plenty of space for my pup to relax, stretch her legs, get comfortable, and, of course, keep a watchful eye on all the squirrels outside! Haha. 🐿️ What meant the most to me was knowing that my pup wasn’t just being watched, she was genuinely being cared for and loved. It’s such a wonderful feeling to be able to enjoy time away without worrying about your furry best friend. If I could give Nadia 100 stars, I would in a heartbeat! Unfortunately, I’m limited to just 5/5! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you SO much, Nadia, for opening your home and heart to my girl and treating her like one of your own. Your kindness, compassion, and genuine love for animals truly shine through. I’m beyond grateful, and I couldn’t recommend you more highly! You’re the absolute best! ❤️🐾”

“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!”


About: I have my associates degree in animal sciences and have been tending to animals of all kinds since I was very young. I have experience with farms along with typical house pets.

I have 1 dog at home, which can be kept separate from other pets. I have an indoor/ outdoor cat. I have an extra large crate for those in need.

“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!”

“Wonderful experience ! Heather and her family were very welcoming and accommodating. They were flexible and extended the stay for our dogs when we needed to stay an extra day. The dogs were very happy and enjoyed playing with her little girls. I will definitely request Heather when we board our pups.”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of pets, from horses to kittens. I have recently completed a Red Cross course in dog and cat first aid. Providing quality care to meet your pets’ specific needs is my goal. My flexible routine allows me to provide pet care through out the week.

“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!”

“Hillary and her family are amazing! We live about 40 minutes away, but as soon as we got there, we immediately felt like their land was a perfect place for dogs to play. So, it was worth the drive! Hillary was so kind and her kids were very friendly. Daisy felt comfortable in their home right away. She had another puppy staying there over the weekend and her own dog Joshua. I was a little worried about how my puppy would do with other dogs and children, but seeing her play with them before I left was so comforting. Hillary has a background in puppy training and I could tell just by how she interacted with Daisy and the other pup. Hillary was great with communication and sent pictures every day! Daisy always looked happy and having a wonderful time! Most of the time, when I send Daisy somewhere, I feel sad knowing she’ll spend the majority of the time in a crate, but this was the complete opposite! Daisy basically got a vacation while we were gone. Haha. Thank you, Hillary! We really appreciate you!”

“Laura was so accommodating. My other sitter canceled the morning of and Laura was able to watch my pup the same day. She even came home from work during lunch to meet at my scheduled pickup time. She sent lots of pics during Rocky’s stay and even gave him a mini report card so I could see how he did. Definitely recommend!!!”

“Julie and her family did a wonderful job looking after my dog Margarita while I was away for a week. They gave her a lot of attention and love and Margarita loved staying with them. I highly recommend Julie to other dog parents!”

About: Hi we are Don and Bobbi! We both have grown up around dogs our entire lives and have always been passionate about caring for animals. Between our families, we’ve had many dogs and cats over the years, giving us experience with pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities.

We’ve also pet sat for friends and family and have enjoyed getting to know and care for their pets as if they were our own.

“Dana did a great job of watching our little bichon, Oscar, who got a lot of personalized attention and was welcomed into their family life just like their own dog (who is also super cute and who Oscar got along with great). I would happily book with Dana again.”

“This was our first time leaving our newly adopted cat and Michelle took great care of her. She provided us with detailed feedback and took the extra step of cleaning up tracked litter and fur balls to keep our cat's space clean.”


About: I have taken care of cats since I was a child. I have adopted most of my cats from the streets and 2 of my cats I took in from the families they were with since they were rehoming them.

“We had a great experience with Marina! She is reliable, caring, and wonderful with our dog. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in good hands while we work such long hours. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”

“This is the first time I’ve had to board our 2 cats and our dog. We wanted them to be together but knew the sounds of a kennel would stress them, especially our kitties. Am so happy to find Rover.com but especially to find Ashley! From our initial texts to talking in person, she is so friendly. You can tell she loves animals after seeing her place and meeting her dog. She sent photos of our pets with updates to assure us they were happy. We feared they wanted to stay with her and not come home.”

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.

“Tina was so wonderful! I was a bit nervous going in as this was the first time I was leaving my 8 month old puppy with someone that I did not know. We set up a meet and greet during which my pup, Maizy displayed some anxiety, but Tina was not deterred. She knew Maizy needed to warm up at her pace and she got some treats right away to help build up some trust! She sent pictures and really helped me feel at ease that Maizy was well cared for! There was even a storm that rolled by which Maizy is terrified of thunder and Tina helped her feel safe! I would definitely book with her again should we need it!”

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, enjoy the peaceful sounds of nature and simply 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. 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.

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.

I have been caring for dogs as long as I can remember. My earliest memories include setting up agility courses for my german shepherd in my backyard. To say I have a passion for dogs is an understatement. I recently quit my job to pursue dog boarding full time and I could not be more excited to spend all day with your pup(s)! We spend lots of time on play, exercise and enrichment. Our yard is set up similar to a dog park meaning we have two separate fenced areas for dogs comfort. We have one small fenced area (4ft fence) to accommodate small, elderly, timid and handicapped pups as well as a large dog park sized fenced area to accommodate more playful mid sized pups (6ft fence). We also have a whole home generator for added peace of mind. When the weather is nice we like to spend a lot of time outdoors Health and safety is our top priority. We have a zero tolerance policy for aggression. If your dog shows signs of aggression during their stay they will be quarantined for the remainder of the stay and not accepted back.

Please provide proof of rabies vaccination (I need a copy of the in date certificate that is signed by your veterinarian). Please ensure your dog(s) are free from fleas ticks and intestinal parasites. Our storage space is limited so please only bring food (put food in ziplock bag and write pets name on the bag) , medications/supplements, and a leash. We will provide toys, treats, bowls (we have a variety of sizes both regular and slow feeder), crates if your dog needs one and plush bedding. Please ALWAYS pack extra food.

Please keep pickup/drop off timeframes to a 30 minute window. Please communicate if you will be more than 15 minutes early or late for your scheduled pickup or drop off time as we may have other obligations and may not be available if you show up early or late.

“At first I thought Remi was mad at us for leaving him. It soon was clear to see he had a full day of fun and was pooped. Hillary had full command of him and her dog Joshua and sent us pics through the day playing and resting. I had full confidence and could see that she and her family were loving animal people. She came through on short notice and on Christmas! We recommend her whole heartedly. We will happily be using her again in the future.”

“This is my second time taking my pup to Robin and brought along a friends dog for a puppy play date weekend. I felt completely comfortable with Robin and I know my dogs felt the same way. Robin feels like an old friend at this point and will be the only place I bring Ollie now.”

“We are very picky about with whom we leave our lab Jack. Meeting Danielle in person was very reassuring because she is a combination of energy and friendliness. I suspect Jack had as much fun playing with Danielle's dogs as we did on our mini-getaway. We intend to use Danielle in the future as the need arises and we give her our highest recommendation. I don't always leave online reviews but my wife and I really like Danielle.”
“Jasmine was awesome with my doggie babies!! My Wally was very anxious and she done very well with him! I would recommend her to anyone! She sent me updates and pics every day!!! Loved her! My babies looked happy!”


“This is the second time that Tina has cared for Sassy. All I can say is Sassy loves her and I call her second mommy now. Sassy gets excited when she gets out of the car. She treats my girl like one of her own and sends me pictures and updates. Tina is a real gem and I feel so fortunate that she has been available as I know Sassy is in the best hands while in her care.”

“I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Nadia! 😊 Nadia took care of my sweet pup for several days while I was away, and I couldn’t have asked for a more loving, caring, and thoughtful person to look after her! I absolutely loved receiving pictures and updates every day. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my girl was happy, safe, and in such wonderful hands. Nadia went above and beyond to make sure she was well-fed, spoiled with yummy treats, and had plenty of playtime to keep her mentally and physically stimulated. Her home was absolutely perfect, with plenty of space for my pup to relax, stretch her legs, get comfortable, and, of course, keep a watchful eye on all the squirrels outside! Haha. 🐿️ What meant the most to me was knowing that my pup wasn’t just being watched, she was genuinely being cared for and loved. It’s such a wonderful feeling to be able to enjoy time away without worrying about your furry best friend. If I could give Nadia 100 stars, I would in a heartbeat! Unfortunately, I’m limited to just 5/5! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you SO much, Nadia, for opening your home and heart to my girl and treating her like one of your own. Your kindness, compassion, and genuine love for animals truly shine through. I’m beyond grateful, and I couldn’t recommend you more highly! You’re the absolute best! ❤️🐾”

“Wonderful experience ! Heather and her family were very welcoming and accommodating. They were flexible and extended the stay for our dogs when we needed to stay an extra day. The dogs were very happy and enjoyed playing with her little girls. I will definitely request Heather when we board our pups.”

“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!”

“Hillary and her family are amazing! We live about 40 minutes away, but as soon as we got there, we immediately felt like their land was a perfect place for dogs to play. So, it was worth the drive! Hillary was so kind and her kids were very friendly. Daisy felt comfortable in their home right away. She had another puppy staying there over the weekend and her own dog Joshua. I was a little worried about how my puppy would do with other dogs and children, but seeing her play with them before I left was so comforting. Hillary has a background in puppy training and I could tell just by how she interacted with Daisy and the other pup. Hillary was great with communication and sent pictures every day! Daisy always looked happy and having a wonderful time! Most of the time, when I send Daisy somewhere, I feel sad knowing she’ll spend the majority of the time in a crate, but this was the complete opposite! Daisy basically got a vacation while we were gone. Haha. Thank you, Hillary! We really appreciate you!”

“Laura was so accommodating. My other sitter canceled the morning of and Laura was able to watch my pup the same day. She even came home from work during lunch to meet at my scheduled pickup time. She sent lots of pics during Rocky’s stay and even gave him a mini report card so I could see how he did. Definitely recommend!!!”

“Julie and her family did a wonderful job looking after my dog Margarita while I was away for a week. They gave her a lot of attention and love and Margarita loved staying with them. I highly recommend Julie to other dog parents!”

Between our families, we’ve had many dogs and cats over the years, giving us experience with pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities.

We have a massive yard for the dogs to run around and are constantly going on leashed walks near our house. Our house is their house and we are happy to play with your pup as much as they need!

“Annie was amazing, she was responsive and did an awesome job with my dog. She communicated shared photos and if I ever have the opportunity to have her watch my dog Austin I most certainly will. Thanks!”
