“Hazzar boarded our cavapoo for 1 week and went above and beyond our expectations. When we came to pick our dog, we could tell she was happy and well-cared for. Communication with Hazzar was easy and quick. She promptly replied to our messages and sent pictures of our dog throughout the week. I would recommend Hazzar to anyone looking for a caring a loving pet sitter.”
“Our German Shepherd loved his stay. He was much more relaxed than in a kennnell with all the walks and one on one special treatment in a calm, quiet and spacious house with a fenced in back yard. I loved how caring they were and what terrific questions they asked ahead of time.”
“Kara and her family were amazing with my husky! They had him for 5 days while we were out of town and I have nothing but great things to say about them. My boy was well taken care of, he was happy and communication was consistent (something I highly appreciated) They took him on walks, played with him and gave him lots of love. We totally recommend her!”
“Highly recommend Brandy and her family they are Great! It’s an awesome feeling to know that my fur babies are being taken care of and loved while I am away. Brandy sends pictures and chats to let me know that my fur babies are having fun too. Thanks Brandy for everything!”
“Miss Valley had an amazing time with Diane and her family. She enjoyed nice walks with her kids and seemed as though she really enjoyed her time with Diane. Diane communicated daily on how she was doing and sent photos as well. I will definitely be rebooking with Diane again!”
“Jenesis has watched my dog several times now and he loves staying with her! Bentley and her dog get along really well and they play all day long and tire each other out. My dog has some special food needs and she accommodates those and keeps me updated with how he’s doing. I know Bentley is in great hands when he’s with her”
“Here's a review you can use: --- I recently had Joe dog sit for the second time, and once again, I am beyond pleased! I can’t express how grateful I am to have found him. Joe maintains excellent communication throughout the entire process, keeping me updated on how Elsa is doing. He is incredibly conscientious about ensuring she stays mentally stimulated, which I truly appreciate. It’s clear that Elsa has a wonderful time with Joe and his dog, Lilbet. In fact, I honestly believe she didn’t want to leave them when I picked her up! I highly recommend Joe to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
“Kathryn was a WONDERFUL pet sitter for our little English bulldog, Daisy. She kept in touch with us and sent updates. We could tell Daisy really enjoyed her stay! Thank you, Kathryn!!!”
“Rebecca was the best! She was so flexible in meeting me to drop off/pick up my dog, and I could tell that my dog loved spending time with her. She was smiling and wagging her tail when I picked her up and I know she had the best time. She sent photos throughout her stay and kept me in the loop. If I ever need someone to watch Willow again I know who to contact. Thank you!”
“This is Jake's second stay. Jocelyn has been more than accommodating and I think Jake has decided he likes it at her house. She has worked with me on all aspects of getting Jake to and from her house. Thank you so much! Jake and I appreciate you and are glad to have found you 💜.”
“Midnight was well cared for by Beth, and I would definitely use her again to care for my little family member. She was very reassuring by text and pictures to my nervous inquiries. If Midnight could speak, I'm sure he would tell me he was well fed, well exercised and most importantly, well loved by Beth.”
“Deb and Ralph do an excellent job. This is our boys second stay with them. He’s a high energy lab. They make him feel right at home and gives us peace of mind being away from him. They communicate with us as needed and are quick to reply to texts. I’d recommend them for your dog watching needs.”
“We have been using Rover for about a decade in three different states. Sophia is the best we have ever dealt with. Ten stars on communication, attentiveness, and just obvious plain love for dogs. Her son is adorable and so sweet. We were actually afraid our boy would not want to come home with us. The environment she provides is also top shelf. We never had ANY concern about our loved one's care. Top notch sitter. Bravo Sophia !! Sincerely, Chris & Peggy Bella”
“This family kept our black lab for almost 2 weeks and it was a great experience. I felt comfortable leaving him with them, and he came back happy and healthy. Will definitely have our dog stay with them again in the future!”
“Rosie always has fun at Kendyl’s house! Thanks again for your kind and gentle way with Rosie. It’s always a relief to know that Rosie is in good hands when we need a sitter!!”

“Chris is great! She took wonderful care of our cat, Ginger, with daily drop-in visits. Thank you so much. Hopefully, she will be available in the future. She provided great 'peace of mind' for us!”

About: I spent a lot of time with pets( mostly dogs) from taking care of close friends pets. With dogs I found better ways to behave them when they were with me, and considering I would take care of them a lot I managed to teach them tricks. I love spending time with animals of any kind. I had a cat when I was 13 and it was tricky because I got Lenny as an adult I would say. I learned how to manage litter boxes and the right food for both cat and dog. I do a lot of research when it comes to food so I know they have the right nutritions and I’m also skeptical when if comes or bagged food, so I do make my Own at times. I own 2 dogs now, one is a puppy and the other about a year and a half old. I’m also trying to save to go into MTC to study as a veterinarian to spend more time with animals. Taking care of pets fits in just perfectly. I currently have a part time job, but doing pet care on the side definitely helps balance my routine out and get some fresh air from working. In both client/my home, since I’m an early bird, I take them on walks to get them moving and give them time to potty, as I do with my dogs as well. I give them water and food, of course this varies on any directions given by the owner. They do get a lot of playtime and treats for good behavior. I make sure to let them potty at least every 2-3 hours out of habit from my pets.
“Elizabeth was great to have watch out cats. She played with them and gave them attention during her house sitting, and gave them a comfortable atmosphere to help both cats with their need for different levels of companionship. She follows directions left really well and when trouble arises for the automatic feeder, Elizabeth was able to fix it and give us all relief.”
About: I have owned animals my whole life and absolutely love working with them. I used to work at a boarding kennel/ training place and even a veterinary hospital so I learned a lot. And know how to handle all kinds of different breeds. I have two dogs of my own, so they are set on a schedule. Just as your pet would be too. I currently am a stay at home mom so my schedule is wide open. I would love to fill my time by walking or doing drop in visits with your pets! I have a huge backyard for them. I also have two dogs of my own who get along great with other dogs , so they can run and play with them.
About: We have had a large cat named Snoop for many years. We adopted him from Cats Cradle in Harrisonburg as a Christmas surprise for our daughter. His original name was Kris Krinkle due to a cropped ear. Nothing better than falling asleep to the purring next to you.

“We truly appreciate Brandy! We booked very last minute with brandy. Being on vacation we brought our epileptic pup and he wasn’t coping well in a new place being alone. So we downloaded this app for the first time and booked with her while we went out. She responded when I checked on him, and sent me pictures of him while he was with her. We are even booked an extra day with her while we were here because he did so well in her care! Thank you Brandy !!”
About: Just the 2 of us. Our sweet boy crossed over the rainbow bridge, and while we’re not quite ready to get another dog, we love making new paw friends!

It’s a perfect set up for your pups ‘home away from home.’ We take at least 2 walks a day, plus dog parks and car rides! Dogs are free to roam around the house and fenced in yard.
“Jenesis was amazing! She made sure to take extra care of my pup and make her feel at ease while I was away. She was flexible with my late evening pick up time and even watched my dog longer than I had originally asked/needed her to. Please book with her if you need a sitter!!”
About: I kind of fell into the dog sitting fun. My mom used to “sit” with every kind of being from baby to dog before it became a popular hustle. Growing up I’ve always helped and learned from her how to care for other’s family members as one’s own. In my spare time, I love to hike and I walk everyday. I'd love to have your companion as a sidekick on these adventures. Or even just enjoy a leisurely walk. Coming into one’s home is an act of trust and a privilege. This is not lost on me. I have every intention of respecting the needs and privacy of my clients.

I work only in the Harrisonburg area so I am all around town. I am a local to Harrisonburg and know all the dog-friendly spots! Pet care fits into my daily schedule as I have always had pets until college, I am use to fixing my schedule around them, as pets are like children. I work short shifts where I drive to different clients all day, giving me many breaks throughout the day to spend time with the pets! I am a very neat and righty person. As I work with elderly patients, I am not afraid of bacteria or most things! I believe I am trustworthy for pet sitting as I have extensive experience in caring for humans.

Boarders or daycare get 2-3 walks/day, dozens of photos, and lots of love of course! I provide toys, bowls, a dog bed, treats, poop bags and a backup leash. A tired dog is a good dog :) feel free to bring your pet’s crate if you’d like! I grew up with border collies and labs, then rescued my own dogs in adulthood.

I own my own home on a quiet circle street. My yard is an expansive quarter acre of grass with access to miles of mowed walking paths off my backyard. When a visit starts, I like to take the dogs on a “Welcome Walk” to get acquainted in neutral outdoor space. I prioritize safety and clear communication (with owners and dogs!) to create a comfortable experience for all. I look forward to taking care of your wonderful pets!

Rain or shine, I am happy to take them out. I provide a treats (if allowed), a dog bed, bowls, toys and backup leash (but I prefer you bring the leash your dog is familiar with!). Please feel free to bring a crate if you’d like to crate your dog! When a visit starts, I like to take the dogs on “Welcome Walk” where we get acquainted in the great outdoors. This allows me to build our bond in neutral space with plenty of positive stimulation for the dogs.

His house sits in a wonderful wooded area and is perfect for dog walking. He took Juno in, introduced her to his dog and cats, sent pictures, took her for a walk. It was clear he has experience and he and his family genuinely love to take care of dogs! Juno was happy and calm when we picked her up. We were very lucky that we found Cory and definitely highly recommend him!”

My dog has some special food needs and she accommodates those and keeps me updated with how he’s doing. I know Bentley is in great hands when he’s with her”
“Here's a review you can use: --- I recently had Joe dog sit for the second time, and once again, I am beyond pleased! I can’t express how grateful I am to have found him. Joe maintains excellent communication throughout the entire process, keeping me updated on how Elsa is doing. He is incredibly conscientious about ensuring she stays mentally stimulated, which I truly appreciate. It’s clear that Elsa has a wonderful time with Joe and his dog, Lilbet. In fact, I honestly believe she didn’t want to leave them when I picked her up! I highly recommend Joe to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
“Rebecca was the best! She was so flexible in meeting me to drop off/pick up my dog, and I could tell that my dog loved spending time with her. She was smiling and wagging her tail when I picked her up and I know she had the best time. She sent photos throughout her stay and kept me in the loop. If I ever need someone to watch Willow again I know who to contact. Thank you!”
“This is Jake's second stay. Jocelyn has been more than accommodating and I think Jake has decided he likes it at her house. She has worked with me on all aspects of getting Jake to and from her house. Thank you so much! Jake and I appreciate you and are glad to have found you 💜.”
“Midnight was well cared for by Beth, and I would definitely use her again to care for my little family member. She was very reassuring by text and pictures to my nervous inquiries. If Midnight could speak, I'm sure he would tell me he was well fed, well exercised and most importantly, well loved by Beth.”
“Deb and Ralph do an excellent job. This is our boys second stay with them. He’s a high energy lab. They make him feel right at home and gives us peace of mind being away from him. They communicate with us as needed and are quick to reply to texts. I’d recommend them for your dog watching needs.”
“We have been using Rover for about a decade in three different states. Sophia is the best we have ever dealt with. Ten stars on communication, attentiveness, and just obvious plain love for dogs. Her son is adorable and so sweet. We were actually afraid our boy would not want to come home with us. The environment she provides is also top shelf. We never had ANY concern about our loved one's care. Top notch sitter. Bravo Sophia !! Sincerely, Chris & Peggy Bella”
“This family kept our black lab for almost 2 weeks and it was a great experience. I felt comfortable leaving him with them, and he came back happy and healthy. Will definitely have our dog stay with them again in the future!”
“Rosie always has fun at Kendyl’s house! Thanks again for your kind and gentle way with Rosie. It’s always a relief to know that Rosie is in good hands when we need a sitter!!”
About: I have taken care of pets for many years now for relatives, neighbors, and friends. It is something I enjoy to do when my schedule is open enough to do so! I am providing stop in, walking, day to day, and overnight care for pets. This includes regular activities like walking, playing, potty, feeding, car rides, cuddles, all included in the set price. I can also bathe the pets for an additional fee. I currently work full time my work day is typically split in half. Giving me the perfect timestamps throughout the day to check in on the pets. I work only in the Harrisonburg area so I am all around town. I am a local to Harrisonburg and know all the dog-friendly spots! Pet care fits into my daily schedule as I have always had pets until college, I am use to fixing my schedule around them, as pets are like children. I work short shifts where I drive to different clients all day, giving me many breaks throughout the day to spend time with the pets! I am a very neat and righty person. As I work with elderly patients, I am not afraid of bacteria or most things! I believe I am trustworthy for pet sitting as I have extensive experience in caring for humans.
