“We had such a wonderful experience with our Bertie! They took care of our dog for two days and treated him like their own. From the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely at ease. They consistently kept us updated with videos and photos, which meant so much to us. Seeing Coco happy, comfortable, and well cared for made it easy to relax while we were away. Communication was excellent the entire time — quick responses, thoughtful updates, and genuine care. We’re so grateful for the love and attention they gave our pet and would absolutely book with them again. Highly recommend! 🐾”
“If I could give 10 stars I would! Such a great experience! Communication was incredible. We received several photos and updates every day. In every photo Jud looked relaxed and content. I highly recommend Mark and Daniel for boarding!”
“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!”
“Danielle watched our mini-dachshund for a week at her home and we could not have asked for a better experience. Our pup can be a bit high maintenance, but she took it all in stride and gave her excellent care the entire time. Her communication was fantastic too, with regular updates that put us at ease while we were away. We came home to a happy, well cared for dog. Highly recommend and would absolutely book her again”
“Jesse and Emily were fantastic with Kimber. Great communication with me and all the love and spoiling for Kimber. I love how they made her part of their family for the long weekend!”
“My dog Bruce had the best time with Katina! She was super responsive, reliable and we felt very comfortable with her during our meet and greet. She sent photos, videos and updates that put us at ease that Bruce was in good hands. 10/10 would use again!!”
“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!”
“Paula was awesome! We felt very confident with our decision and our pup was very comfortable with her and returned happy. She was also very flexible with our changing schedules. Highly recommend!”
“Our family was going through a really tough time and Nadia came to our rescue! She treated our puppy like her baby and provided updates and pictures multiple times a day which made us feel so safe and secure. She even made scarves and necklaces for our sweet pup and made her feel like a princess. We had an issue come up where we needed to schedule extra days and she was so kind and accommodating. Our puppy was so sad to leave her. I’d recommend Nadia to anybody and everybody and I can’t wait to be able to book with her again in the future. She’s now my puppy’s godmother😅 and she’ll always be my go-to.”
“Paula was so great for Apollo! He was able to run around and get cuddle time. She was super accommodating and understanding (we were running quite behind) Many thanks for taking care of our boy!”
“Once again and amazing person and sitter! My dog, Honey, absolutely loved her time with Jasmine and loved hanging out with the other dogs! Definitely recommend and will rebook!”
“Laura is amazing & took excellent care of our doggo (border collie) while we were away. 100% recommend to anyone looking for a loving environment while they are away from home!”
“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!”
“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.”
About: Hey y’all! I have taken care of pets, specifically dogs, for as long as I can remember. I grew up in Louisiana with 2 dachshunds in my family home. One of them had diabetes, so I am experienced with giving shots and oral medication. In addition to taking care of the weenie dogs, I had a pet hedgehog and chameleon in high school. I truly love animals of all kinds. I grew up walking and dog sitting for family friends and neighbors. In high school, I was an involved volunteer at my local humane society. When I was in college, I ended up rescuing a dog from that shelter. My parents took him in since I lived in a college dormitory. After I graduated college, I couldn’t wait to get my own dog! Here in Charlottesville, I have 1 dog now, Pretzel, who is a small lab mix. He is also a rescue, and is my world! I can’t wait to meet, walk, and watch your pets! I have a non-traditional work schedule that is unpredictable but also flexible. I go into work most week days, or sometimes work from home. My hours can vary, but I always make time to walk my dog Pretzel multiple times a day with trips to the dog park when I can. I am available on the weekends. In my home, Pretzel roams free. I do not kennel him, as he is potty trained. I want Pretzel to be able to roam around as he pleases. Pretzel sleeps with me every night.
“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!”

“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: Personalized Boarding & Doggy Daycare! 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: Hi! I'm Heather — a lifelong animal lover who has rarely spent a single day without a dog by my side. I've been caring for dogs my entire life and currently share my home with four dogs of my own — a 9lb Chihuahua, a 9lb Yorkie-Chi mix, a 50lb Lab mix, and a 75lb Red Retriever — plus a cat and some fish. Safe to say animals are my life! After losing a beloved dog who was poorly cared for at a kennel, I became passionate about providing the kind of attentive, loving care that every pet deserves. I know how much trust it takes to hand your fur baby to someone else — and I take that seriously. I'm available for drop in visits, dog walks, and house sitting. I'm comfortable with all sizes and breeds and happy to accommodate cats too. I'll always follow your specific instructions and send plenty of photos so you never have to wonder how your baby is doing. Your pet isn't just a booking to me — they're family. 💙 Pet care isn't something I fit into my routine — it IS my routine. I'm home all day with four dogs of my own, so visiting or caring for your pet fits naturally into my day. I'm available mornings, afternoons and evenings and can be flexible around your schedule. Your pet will never feel like an afterthought — they'll get my full attention during every visit. When I visit your home I treat it with the same respect and care I would want someone to show mine. I follow your instructions exactly — feeding schedules, medications, special routines, off-limit areas — nothing is too detailed. I grew up understanding that pets are family members, not just animals, and that the trust you place in someone entering your home is significant. I take that seriously every single time. You'll always receive photos and updates during every visit so you know your baby is happy and well cared for.

About: Friendly sitter with experience with senior pups, cats and chickens. I currently have two wonderful dogs and a handful of chickens. One of our dogs is what we believe is a Foxhound and the other is a Shepherd mix. Both are rescues so we are not sure. I also have experience with cats, parrots (green crowned conure) and various farm animals. Update: I no longer work from home. I am now in Richmond M-F, 8-5. I am happy to stop by during my lunch break to check on your babies in the city. Any other surrounding areas would have to be weekends and not during work hours. Apologies for any inconvenience! I am happy to stop by your home and care for your pets. One of my pups is reactive and we do not want to make her (or your baby) uncomfortable by bringing other pets into our space.

If your dog needs a hike and does well in the car; I’m your gal!!, If they just need cuddles while we binge a tv show I can do that too! I have experience with bunnies, chickens and birds too!!

About: Growing up at a dairy farm, I was always surrounded by all kinds of animals. Horses, cows, dogs, etc. I had a love for them all. But it wasn’t until I had my first dog on my own inside the house that I totally understand just how much I really love dogs. I work every Friday, Saturday and Sunday. All nights. So Monday through Friday I have lots of spare time. From 7 AM Monday until 7 AM on Friday. I do not have a fenced in backyard. So keeping them on the leash is my number one priority. From getting out of the house and into the car. Because I do a lot of hiking with Bella. I also have a good size first aid kit.
“Erica has been amazing with our dog and cat! We can trust her and she’s very reliable. She sends a full report and includes photos of our animals. We are definitely using her in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of many animals throughout my life since I was young. Friends, family, significant others, and my own which entailed bathing, walking, training, feeding, and just going outside and playing fetch with them. My whole life I have been a major animal lover of all shapes and sizes, and I have years of experience to make you comfortable with me taking care of your pet. I make it my priority to spend as much time with my dog Sadie as possible, I bathe when necessary because she loves to be outside and makes a mess of herself I walk her, feed her, and take her to the dog park with me some days. I will do whatever you all would like to do when it comes to your fur babies if that entails crating when necessary I can, or giving your dog medication, I would love if you’d like me to take your dog on walks it’s always good for them to get as much exercise as possible, just know that when it comes to your pets I understand how important it is to be getting the proper care and I will make sure that will happen. I’m currently unemployed and I’m very much available right now, I would like to work more full time like Monday-Friday 8am-5pm I can also do boarding. I would ensure your dog is safe and well taken care of, monitoring the dog at all times is key and being aware of surroundings for the fur baby.

I am able to up and move at any given time and flexible when it comes to walking or caring for pets. I live in a pet friendly neighborhood and have a area to walk the dog(s) close by.

I can do boarding, petcare, or drop in visits. UPDATE : I no longer live an apartment - it won’t let me upload on the app. I now live in Powhatan, VA with a backyard!

About: I currently have a 12 year old chihuahua that I’ve had since 9th grade. Growing up my mother would take in rescues and find them homes if they did not get along with my chihuahua. My mother also cleaned houses for a living and I would go along and help her, while also helping her pet sit for those same clients. I am a gentle, loving, passionate care giver for any pet in my care. I am active and always available to give a pet the care they need when their loved one is away! I am in school full-time so my schedule varies. Having an older dog, she cannot go for the long walks I would like to take her on, so let me help both of us and take your pup out to explore the world! Animals of all shapes, handicaps, personalities, and more are always welcome!! This is an opportunity for extra fun. Thank you for inquiring for my help. Always appreciated. I have my own pet so I understand the necessary accommodations they need on a daily basis. I like to set aside enough time daily to provide the same care I provide my dog Abbey to my client’s pets. I enjoy thorough instruction for your pet’s needs so that I can provide the best care for your pet! I will treat your home as if it were my in-laws home, so very nicely haha 😆

“If I could give 10 stars I would! Such a great experience! Communication was incredible. We received several photos and updates every day. In every photo Jud looked relaxed and content. I highly recommend Mark and Daniel for boarding!”
“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!”
“Jesse and Emily were fantastic with Kimber. Great communication with me and all the love and spoiling for Kimber. I love how they made her part of their family for the long weekend!”
“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!”
“Our family was going through a really tough time and Nadia came to our rescue! She treated our puppy like her baby and provided updates and pictures multiple times a day which made us feel so safe and secure. She even made scarves and necklaces for our sweet pup and made her feel like a princess. We had an issue come up where we needed to schedule extra days and she was so kind and accommodating. Our puppy was so sad to leave her. I’d recommend Nadia to anybody and everybody and I can’t wait to be able to book with her again in the future. She’s now my puppy’s godmother😅 and she’ll always be my go-to.”
“Paula was so great for Apollo! He was able to run around and get cuddle time. She was super accommodating and understanding (we were running quite behind) Many thanks for taking care of our boy!”

“Laura is amazing & took excellent care of our doggo (border collie) while we were away. 100% recommend to anyone looking for a loving environment while they are away from home!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Julie and her family took wonderful care of, spoiled really, our dog Waffles. We are so thankful to have found Julie. We give Julie our highest recommendation for caring for other dogs.”

“Sarah was absolutely wonderful with my 7-month-old large-breed puppy, Buck! She watched him for four days and took such great care of him. She followed all of my instructions carefully, sent frequent photo updates that gave me so much peace of mind, and was thoughtful and communicative throughout his stay. Buck came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious Sarah genuinely loves dogs and takes the time to make sure they’re comfortable and cared for as if they were her own.
