“Amy was amazing and I could not recommend her enough!! She took the best care ever of our 1 year old pup and he came home so happy and tired from all the love and play Amy provided. She has a perfect house and yard for the dogs, sends so many updates and pictures, and is very communicative and kind. She clearly loves dogs and is a trustworthy person you can rely on to take excellent care of your pups! We will certainly be using her again in the future!”

“Casey did a wonderful job with our 2 pups. She was thorough in her care for them and send us a couple photos and an update every evening which was so welcomed. It was our first time leaving our pups with someone we didn’t know, but Casey helped us be right at ease and we got to enjoy our vacation knowing they were in great care. Her kiddos left us some really sweet notes in their go-bag as well, which was delightful to read when we got home and unpacked.”

“Nadia was absolutely wonderful! We felt so lucky to have her watch our boy while we were out of town. Nadia kept us updated with photos and videos of what Tothy was doing while we were gone, giving us complete peace of mind. Nadia did a great job keeping Tothy entertained & exercised. It was clear upon picking him up that he had a wonderful time as well. We couldn't say better things about Nadia and will absolutely book her in the future. Tothy will certainly miss her until next time!”

“Kathryn was fabulous! She was attentive to our pup, sent lots of pics of a very happy pooch and was quick responding to my texts! We will definitely be booking with her again!🤗”

“My dogs LOVE Deb and Ralph. On the way in the driveway, they knew where they were (after only one 3-night stay a month and a half before) and were so excited they couldn’t wait. Deb sent pictures and videos of them rolling and playing on the floor with Ralph, and even stitched a hole in the beddie! These are DOG PEOPLE for sure!”


“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!”

“Hillary worked well with our schedule for Pippa. She responded to all my communications to her and she sent pics of Pippa on a regular basis. She took Pippa on walks and allowed Pippa to sleep where she wanted. Great first time experience!!”

“Svitlana was an absolute gem of a find! I left my fur baby with her for 17 days, and my girl was so well taken care of- it brought so much reassurance as we were apart for that lengthy period. Numerous walks, play dates with other dogs, tug of war - all captured on videos and pictures that she shared with me. I highly recommend her as I will be using her again in the future!”

“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.”

“Jani and Paul treated Leo like he was part of the family. He received so much attention and love, I’m not sure he wanted to leave! Thank you so much for giving Leo such wonderful care.”

“Paula is absolutely amazing! She is very responsive and provided a loving, comfortable home for my boy Archie. Her expertise and passion for dogs made me feel at ease knowing my fur baby was in a safe and caring environment. I highly recommend Paula to anyone looking for a top notch doggy sitter and will absolutely book her again.”

“Jesse and Emily were absolutely amazing. They took such great care of our sweet boy and sent lots of updates. Our dog unfortunately had a medical event (he has known epilepsy) during his stay and they handled it incredibly. They were so communicative and loving and went above and beyond to make sure he was okay. We could not be more grateful to have had them watching our dog while we were away.”

“Bertie and the family are absolutely AMAZING!! They were able to accommodate my last minute request. I was continuously sent pictures and updates which I really appreciated. They were very gentle and understanding as Fluff is shy and gets anxious. I would 100% recommend Bertie and I would leave Fluff again with them.”

“If I could give six stars, I would. My pup stayed with Hillary and family for 5 days and I have never had a less stressful boarding experience. Hillary let my pup have time to get used to the property and meet the family before I left. She made space for my dog and her dog to eat separately. The farm and home are beautiful and well maintained. She sent pictures daily showing my pup out and about and enjoying fun experiences. I think my pup thought she was at some farm resort for dogs. Will call Hillary first anytime I need a place for my pup to be safe and happy when I travel.”

“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!”

“Alexandra and Logan were wonderful with my (sometimes overly) curious terrier, Eddie! I am always concerned about Eddie escaping to chase an animal, and they took my concerns seriously and took steps to ensure that wouldn't happen. Their fence setup was great too - the fenced-in yard wraps all the way around the house, so even if a dog slipped out of the house, they would still be in the yard. On top of that, they sent lots of pictures and were so kind to Eddie. He didn't want to leave!”

“Mark and Daniel were very attentive to my needs. My dog seemed happy in the pics too. I wish the daily pics had more activity in them so I could gauge her mood but that’s nitpicking. They took excellent care of her and she returned happy and healthy. Thank you!!”

“Heather & her family were a great match for Mía. From the Meet & Greet, to drop off, asking how to best care for her, and pick up…they were responsive, informative, and caring. Thank you!”

“Riley is simply the best dog sitter you can search for. She is conscientious, organized, responsive, and she loves dogs. Her way with dogs is special; she paid attention to our dog for the week we booked, and the entire time we were away, we were at ease knowing our dog was cared for like family. It is without reservation that we give the highest rating for Riley - again, simply the best!”

“Casey did a wonderful job of caring for our three kitties while we were away for a week. Casey is very dependable and trustworthy. She did a great job of communicating with us while we were away. I highly recommend her services!”

“Samantha takes excellent care of our animals. She took the time to stop by before the visit, learn all of the idiosyncrasies of our furry companions, and she is very personable. We feel very comfortable trusting our animals with her and already plan to use her again.”

“Tiffanie was amazing with our dog, Loki. She took him for walks and gave him so much love, he probably didn’t even realize we were gone. Would definitely recommend her and will be using her again in the future.”

“Megan stayed with my two kitties for a few days over Christmas. I will 100% be asking her to watch my girls again. She was went above and beyond, sending me pics and updates frequently. She ensured that Lemon and Pepper were cared for. Pepper likes to hide sometimes during mealtimes, but Megan made sure that Pepper didn’t miss a meal, which I so appreciate! I couldn’t recommend her enough! Thank you so much again, Megan!”

“Eman is wonderful! It was obvious from the beginning how much love and care she has for our fur baby! And our Cookie loved her immediately! I highly recommend Eman and will definitely be using her services again!”

“Crystal was quick to respond and get booking details confirmed, though I made it on short notice. Very communicative during when I was gone. An absolute delight to work with. Plan on booking with her again.”

“Amy was a great pet sitter, she was attentive and really listened to my thoughts and where we are with our puppy. Sue had toys available for him and my pup enjoyed playing with her lab. Looking forward to our next daycare day.”

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: 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!
“They were super helpful and caring. They understand dog thinking and went out of their way to accommodate the walk we had to do because we were pulling a camper. Definitely recommend!”

“Jani and Paul are amazing sitters for my dog, Lucky! 🐾 I always pick him up from their home and he’s happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. They’re so reliable and thorough and always fill out his report card right away, so I know exactly how his stay went. I really appreciate the care and attention they give him. Highly recommend!”

“Kathryn was awesome with our 2 labradors. It was their first visit with her and they bounded into her beautiful home with lots of energy and she was a wonderfully calming influence on then. They loved her fenced back yard and the filtered water! We recommend her absolutely!”

“I was desperate to get a dog sitter when we were in town visiting with our daughter and Casey came through for us! The doggies loved her and she wore them out. :) highly recommend!”

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.
“This is our first time using an on line sitting service and Cory made it so easy, helping us feel very comfortable leaving our 6mo. old Berniedoodle for the first time. Cory obviously loves animals and we look forward to scheduling with him again.”

“Paula took excellent care of our dog Loki. We were visiting from out of town and need a place for Loki while we visited older relatives. Paula was good with communication and Loki came back all happy. Definitely recommend!”
“Awesome dog sitter! I was in Charlottesville for an interview, and needed a sitter pretty last minute. Caroline was super responsive, sent me so many cute updates, pictures and videos during the day. Raina had so much fun playing with the other dogs, and I would 100% rebook if I’m in the area in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Margaret was the perfect sitter for our little dog, Hattie. From the moment that we arrived to drop off Hattie, Margaret met us with a warm smile and put us right at ease that Hattie will be well taken care of. Margaret updated us with pictures over the afternoon, and when we came to pick up, Hattie was was in a great, happy mood. We have no complaints with the experience, and would gladly leave Hattie with Margaret again.”


“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!”
“Crystal did a great job caring for our two dogs Max and Cody. She and her family obviously loved dogs and our two took to her immediately. Her place was great and the dogs were able to spend time outdoors. She gave us a worry free day. Highly recommended.”

“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: 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 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!
“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.”

“Amy was amazing and I could not recommend her enough!! She took the best care ever of our 1 year old pup and he came home so happy and tired from all the love and play Amy provided. She has a perfect house and yard for the dogs, sends so many updates and pictures, and is very communicative and kind. She clearly loves dogs and is a trustworthy person you can rely on to take excellent care of your pups! We will certainly be using her again in the future!”

“Casey did a wonderful job with our 2 pups. She was thorough in her care for them and send us a couple photos and an update every evening which was so welcomed. It was our first time leaving our pups with someone we didn’t know, but Casey helped us be right at ease and we got to enjoy our vacation knowing they were in great care. Her kiddos left us some really sweet notes in their go-bag as well, which was delightful to read when we got home and unpacked.”

“Nadia was absolutely wonderful! We felt so lucky to have her watch our boy while we were out of town. Nadia kept us updated with photos and videos of what Tothy was doing while we were gone, giving us complete peace of mind. Nadia did a great job keeping Tothy entertained & exercised. It was clear upon picking him up that he had a wonderful time as well. We couldn't say better things about Nadia and will absolutely book her in the future. Tothy will certainly miss her until next time!”

“My dogs LOVE Deb and Ralph. On the way in the driveway, they knew where they were (after only one 3-night stay a month and a half before) and were so excited they couldn’t wait. Deb sent pictures and videos of them rolling and playing on the floor with Ralph, and even stitched a hole in the beddie! These are DOG PEOPLE for sure!”


“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!”

“Hillary worked well with our schedule for Pippa. She responded to all my communications to her and she sent pics of Pippa on a regular basis. She took Pippa on walks and allowed Pippa to sleep where she wanted. Great first time experience!!”

“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.”

“Jenny was the best dog sitter! She sent multiple photos of Maverick and updates about how he was doing. He was able to get his energy out and run around. I could tell he was happy there just from the photos she sent me! I would definitely book with Jenny again.”

“Jesse and Emily were absolutely amazing. They took such great care of our sweet boy and sent lots of updates. Our dog unfortunately had a medical event (he has known epilepsy) during his stay and they handled it incredibly. They were so communicative and loving and went above and beyond to make sure he was okay. We could not be more grateful to have had them watching our dog while we were away.”

“Michelle was so amazing with our babies. They had a blast. She sent us videos and pictures each day as well as fun fandom daily updates as well which we greatly appreciated. We would recommend her to anyone in need of exceptional pet care. We know we will rebook in the future.”

“10/10 would absolutely book with her again! she was so prompt and responsive leading up to ollie’s stay, and she was incredibly accommodating. as soon as i arrived, she immediately made me feel like ollie was in good hands, which gave me so much peace of mind. he had such a fun time staying with her and even got to see goats, which was definitely a highlight! i really appreciated how caring and attentive she was with him.🩷”

“If I could give six stars, I would. My pup stayed with Hillary and family for 5 days and I have never had a less stressful boarding experience. Hillary let my pup have time to get used to the property and meet the family before I left. She made space for my dog and her dog to eat separately. The farm and home are beautiful and well maintained. She sent pictures daily showing my pup out and about and enjoying fun experiences. I think my pup thought she was at some farm resort for dogs. Will call Hillary first anytime I need a place for my pup to be safe and happy when I travel.”

“Linkin had a wonderful time with Julie and her family! I could not have asked for a better communicator, and “fill in” dog mom while I was away! Linkin was well taken care of and sooo happy! Thank you for your help!”

“Moxie had a great time staying over with Caroline. I loved getting photos and updates. Caroline is very experienced with dogs who have special needs and she is warm and friendly. So glad we found her!”

“Alexandra and Logan were wonderful with my (sometimes overly) curious terrier, Eddie! I am always concerned about Eddie escaping to chase an animal, and they took my concerns seriously and took steps to ensure that wouldn't happen. Their fence setup was great too - the fenced-in yard wraps all the way around the house, so even if a dog slipped out of the house, they would still be in the yard. On top of that, they sent lots of pictures and were so kind to Eddie. He didn't want to leave!”

“Mark and Daniel were very attentive to my needs. My dog seemed happy in the pics too. I wish the daily pics had more activity in them so I could gauge her mood but that’s nitpicking. They took excellent care of her and she returned happy and healthy. Thank you!!”

“We were nervous leaving our 6-month-old puppy for the first time, but Cory made it a wonderful experience for us and our pup. Cory was easy to communicate with; he provided lots of photos and updates when we were gone and Riley seemed very happy and content when we went to pick her up. We would definitely like to have Cory watch Riley again.”

“Heather & her family were a great match for Mía. From the Meet & Greet, to drop off, asking how to best care for her, and pick up…they were responsive, informative, and caring. Thank you!”

“Riley is simply the best dog sitter you can search for. She is conscientious, organized, responsive, and she loves dogs. Her way with dogs is special; she paid attention to our dog for the week we booked, and the entire time we were away, we were at ease knowing our dog was cared for like family. It is without reservation that we give the highest rating for Riley - again, simply the best!”
