“Bertie was amazing! I have a new rescue dog and he and the family were so gracious with Dolly. It let my husband and I relax and enjoy Charlotte while we were visiting! They sent a bunch of pictures to show she was in good hands (even tho she is a handful) Highly recommend!!!”
“This was our second time leaving the pups with Tiffanie, she is fantastic! She is great with sending photos and keeping us up to date on their activities and adventures.”
“Hillary provided updates including photos and videos of my pup Daisy at a cadence that kept me worry free but was not excessive. Daisy came home happy and looked well cared for. Will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Jocelyn did an excellent job of watching our dog. She was very flexible changing dates after our travel plans changed. She also sent regular updates with photos to help us feel better about our dog being taken care of.”
“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!!!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Jani and Paul took amazing care of Kona! We hate to leave her, however I could tell she was being totally spoiled with love from the daily photos and updates. Kona is quite active, so they took her on daily walks and played ball with her in their yard. Kona enjoyed watching the squirrels in their backyard and was made to feel totally at home. I would not hesitate to recommend Jani and we already have another visit booked for Kona.”
“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!”
“Svitlana was wonderful! She clearly knows and loves dogs. She was patient with settling our dog in and then went above and beyond with helping to get her energy expended. We loved seeing pictures of her happily playing. So thankful for the care!”
“Thank you so much Amy for providing such great care to our Hunter! The pictures and videos you provided throughout the day were priceless! We look forward to sending Hunter back to you! It’s hard to find such a level of comfort when leaving furbabies!”
“I cannot recommend her enough! She watched Otis for 2 nights and treated him like he was her own. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease. She was so kind, communicative, and thoughtful throughout the entire stay. She sent me lots of updates and photos, which meant so much and made being away from my boy so much easier. You could genuinely tell how much love and attention he was getting the whole time. He came home happy, comfortable, and clearly very well cared for. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and truly loving with animals, she is absolutely the person to book. I would 100% use her again!”
“Jenny sent me updates and pictures of my dog while I was gone. She took my dog with her throughout parts of the day around the stables. Drop off and pick up went smoothly. She was great!”
“My dog is a lovable but nervous dog. She is reactive to people, cars and dogs. Jackie was a perfect match for my active and rather nervous standard poodle. Medications were not a problem even though my dog is resistant to the pill process. Jackie is an experienced and caring sitter. I highly recommend her. Hats off to Jackie and Tom!”
“Thanks to Reyna, I knew my pup was well cared for and loved while I was away. She updated me frequently with photos and comments on their day. She even did "spa time" with my pup, brushing her and making sure she felt at ease. I will definitely call Reyna in the future. It's good to have someone reliable to call to care for my pup.”
“Ava took great care of my two dogs. She’s got a huge backyard that’s fully fenced in. My pup, Jagger, didn’t want to leave come pick up time! I’ll definitely use her services again.”
“Brooke communicated well, sent lots of pictures and was flexible and ready to help with any concerns we had. Clover enjoyed the yard and had a great time during her visit to Brooke’s house!”

“Pamela did a phenomenal job and took care of my baby Maxine. She gave thorough updates and ensured Maxi ate and used the bathroom. She even offered to check on her when she got a little sick. Would def use her services again.”
About: I’m a cat owner myself and have hands-on experience taking care of my own cat every day. I’m familiar with feeding routines, litter box cleaning, and understanding different cat personalities. I know some cats are very social while others prefer their space, so I always try to follow their pace and keep things calm and low stress. I’ll make sure your cat feels comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. I also send photo updates so you can feel at ease while you're away.
“Ellie was absolutely wonderful. She took such great care of my cats while I was away and it was clear from the start that she is not only reliable and responsible but also genuinely loves animals. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. I came home to happy, relaxed cats and everything just as I left it. I would absolutely recommend Ellie to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter. Thank you so much, Ellie.”
“Sammi did a great job watching my cat. She kept me updated daily and sent pictures. I definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs and will be asking her to watch my cat next time I'm out of town.”
“Vanessa was FANTASTIC!!! She took excellent care of my cat Scooter, and kept me well informed of her visits. He was in great spirits upon my return and I'll certainly use her again next time I'm away. I can confidently recommend Vanessa with the highest regards.”

“Hillary did a fantastic job watching our dog for the day. She is great at communicating and flexible. With our drop off and pickup times. We would definitely use her again. We really appreciate her letting us know details about his day.”
“Jani & Paul were able to graciously accommodate my puppy for daycare on very short notice. He thoroughly enjoyed his stay and will most definitely be booking again. The best!!!”
“Cory did a wonderful job watching our dog for the day! He updated with a picture and let us know everyone was getting along. Our dog is often scared of strangers but Cory did a great job helping him feel safe and comfortable.”
“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.”

“Reyna is incredibly kind and is so considerate with my anxious pup! She does her best to help him adjust and offer him comfort, and he clearly feels so safe in her home! It’s a huge relief knowing he’s with her while I’m at work and he’s getting the attention he needs.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs for years. I have a small dog myself. Her name is Willow and she is 18. She is sincerely my very best friend. If given the option, I would be with dogs over people. They bring me so much joy and laughter. I only work a few hours a day and have a very flexible schedule so I will be able to meet your pets routine needs. I am very flexible on taking care of your pets. If they are not good with my dog, I have options not to have her with me.
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!
About: Lifelong dog owner with decades of experience caring for dogs both big and small. I work from home and am able to provide constant care, companionship and plenty of exercise. I am happy to host dogs from different families if they are friendly, but I am also happy to host your dog(s) alone. Boarders or daycare get at least two to three 30+ min 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 :) I grew up with border collies and labs, then rescued my own dogs in adulthood. One of my rescues was a very sick 3-month old puppy that I raised, so I am well-versed with puppy care. I do not currently have pets living in the home, so your dogs will have the run of the place! 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. I am happy to brush the dogs after these walks, if safe and allowed. When a visit starts, I like to take the dogs on a “Welcome Walk” to get acquainted in neutral outdoor space. My six year old son is often present for a booking. He is a responsible child who has been taught to be respectful of dogs by giving them space and patience. We have firm rules that he will never climb, poke, tease or infringe on a dog’s personal space. If your booking request ends up being a time that he will be staying with me, then he enjoys participating in meet in greets to ensure everyone is a great fit :) we have yet to meet a dog we didn’t like! I provide 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 me to crate your dog. I prioritize safety and clear communication (with owners and dogs!) to create a comfortable experience for all. I have used the clicker training method in the past, and do not believe in any form of domineering or physical correction. Your dog will have a stable experience here. I look forward to taking care of your wonderful pets! I work from home, so I am flexible for drop-ins, last-minute needs, or regular walks, and can give your dog consistent companionship…and some fun of course! 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. I prioritize safety and clear communication (with owners and dogs!) to create a comfortable experience for all. I have used the clicker training method in the past, and do not believe in any form of domineering or physical correction. Your dog will have a stable experience here!

Something else I love about Kayci is she almost never fails to mention that she saw the other pets in our home too- she’s not even there to check on the cats but it is so sweet and gives me a little extra peace of mind to know she had eyes on and gave a few pets to my other fur babies.”

You could genuinely tell how much love and attention he was getting the whole time. He came home happy, comfortable, and clearly very well cared for. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and truly loving with animals, she is absolutely the person to book. I would 100% use her again!”

A few days after my dog’s stay, Sunshine saw Aly and was so excited to see her, confirming that Aly provided a welcoming environment for my dog during her stay. I will definitely use Aly again to care for my fur baby.”

“My husband and I travel most places with our fur babies and finding local Rovers when they can't check-in with us. While we have had good success finding trusting and loving sitters, we really were blessed to meet Mark and Daniel. Their attention to detail prior to our pets arrival, their ability to be flexible when my scheduling mistake was uncovered, but most importantly, the level of care my pups received was top-notch. The home is clean, fenced in large yard and they really love what they do. I don't know if we will be back in that area, but if we are I will re-book with Mark and Daniel.”

My dog was absolutely the most comfortable she has been with any sitter. We are grateful for the personal care our dog received with Haley!”
