“Aly was fantastic! My 11-year-old cockapoo Mittens was comfortable with her from the very beginning. She wagged her tail and made herself right at home. Aly kept up informed with adorable pictures, and we would be happy to board Mittens with her again. I'm sure Mittens would love it too!”
“Hank came home exhausted which means he had a blast. Cynthia did a great job in every Dept from communication to updates throughout the weekend. We were extremely pleased with her work.”
“Having to leave your dog is tough but when you leave them with a family like this one, your mind is instantly put at ease! They loved on our girl like she was family and sent us picture updates every day!!! We will 100% book with them again!”
“So helpful, my booking was last minute and i greatly appreciate Whitney being able to watch my pups for me. My dogs were so warm out from playing so much at her house. Will definitely keep her at the top of my list!”
“This was our first time leaving Pepe with a sitter and our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous, you never really know who you’re leaving your dog with. But Riley was exceptional from the very beginning. Even before I booked her, she helped me figure out how the app worked and made the whole process easy. During Pepe’s stay, she kept me 100% informed at all times with photos, videos, and messages. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and professional. I truly felt peace of mind knowing Pepe was in her hands. I have no doubt he was well cared for, and I would absolutely book her again. Thank you so much, Riley, for treating Pepe like your own dog, we truly appreciate it.”
“Amanda was able to accommodate me on short notice and took great care of my dog. She kept me updated the whole time and was even flexible when my pickup time had to change. She'll be my first go-to the next time I need a sitter in Charlottesville.”
“Jocelin and Christian did an exceptional job caring for our pups. Jocelin shared pictures daily and made extra effort to give them the exercise our high energy young ones need. I highly recommend Jocelin for boarding your dogs.”
“Nigel loves Sarah & Scott's so much! I loved seeing the updates on him. They even were amazing on caring for him during the scary thunderstorm! Thank you!”
“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!”
“Heidi and Lemon had a great experience! They came back tired but happy and healthy. I couldn't ask for a better sitter -- I'd definitely recommend and will be using them in the future if we need someone to watch the girls.”
“She was amazing! I received pictures and updates while our dog was in her care. It made me feel really at ease seeing my dog so relaxed and enjoying her home/property. She was even able to accommodate extending her stay due to our travel being delayed. I HIGHLY recommend her and will definitely be using her services again! Thanks again Heather!”
“Hope was the absolute best! She watched Ollie during our wedding weekend and although it was her first time, it seemed like she has been watching him for years. He was so comfortable with her and she was so responsive with us, sending tons of pictures. We don’t live in the area but if we did we would use her every time!!”
“Pam and MICHAEL are so caring and kind. Finley had a great time at their house playing in their backyard and with the other dog visitors. She was happy to see us but she also seems sad to leave. I would highly recommend Pam and MICHAEL.”
“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!!”
“Paige was great with our senior little dog. In addition to providing a safe and welcoming (temporary) home for our Ruthy. She provided regular updates w/pictures and even gave us a homemade holiday treat at pick up. We appreciate her prompt responses, welcoming atmosphere and safe environment. She helped take a lot of the stress out of holiday travel.”
“Jenny was terrific especially as she was challenged by my 70 lb lab grand-dog who got into everything, including some horse feed. She seemed to take it all in stride, the dogs seemed happy and all was well. I didn't realize how many dogs would be together that weekend; a good thing to ask if it matters to you. Our dog, Gracie, would love to return!”
“We ran into many different travel delays on our most recent trip and Heather was super understanding and flexible with our pickup and drop off times! It is so nice to be able to take summer trips knowing our pup is getting all the love & attention from Heather & her family.”

“First time using Dakota while we vacationed for a week. She took care of our inside cat, a fish tank, outside chickens & collected our mail. She is friendly, prompt, responsive, trustworthy and competent. We had an issue with our cat & she was good at problem solving and communicating effectively. I’d use her again!”
“Katie watched our cat and did some house sitting for several days, and she did an amazing job! She sent picture updates that gave me so much peace of mind, and he was clearly happy, playful, and well cared for. She followed all his routines, kept everything tidy, and was great at communicating. I’d definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!! 10/10!”
“Basil was awesome with our two kitties! Felt very good that our cats were well cared for. Gave medicine to one of our cats. Responsive and helpful and even stopped by to meet them for the first time. Highly recommend Basil.”
About: Cats have always held a special place in my heart. I believe in treating every feline friend with the love and respect they deserve. Whether it’s providing a cozy environment, engaging them in playful activities, or simply being there for a cuddle, I ensure that each cat feels safe and cherished while their owners are away
“Jocelyn was reliable and communicative. I will definitely seek her services again. This was my first time using Rover and she eased my reservations. I will never rely on a neighbor to take care of my cats again. One of my cats is slow to warm up to people, but by the second day there was photo proof that she was out from under the bed and happily engaged with Jocelyn. My heart was so happy, and it helped me enjoy my vacation worry free.”

About: I started my journey with dogs 4 years ago and have not looked back enjoying every moment since. I am a certified trainer who loves improving the relationship between human and dog. We have a dog yard plus 5 acres. All dogs stay in our extra bedroom, which is now considered the dog room. I personally have two dogs, a cattle dog and a husky mix. They are both very social with all other dogs. We like to have a good time here but I keep a very safe environment for the dogs, no fighting or picking on one another. NO DOG IS TURNED AWAY. If you think your dog is aggressive, I can and will evaluate them so that if possible, we will get them socializing with their own kind and having a great time. Thanks, have a good day! I train dogs for a living so I stay at my house 7 days a week besides when I work with clients and those lessons tend to run about an hour but no more than 2 hours! I have 9 years experience running my own kennel and have two dogs with a large fence so there will be no boredom here! I do prefer to kennel dogs for the night but as we get comfortable with each other they will start to earn more freedom! Pet care is my full time job and i wouldn’t have it any other way, it has been a blessing. I hope I can help make your schedule less stressful! While you’re away, let your dogs play! I have a five foot fenced in dog yard specifically for dogs. We also have another 5 acres that we will walk all client dogs on during their stay with us.-
“Caroline was a great sitter! She took great care of our dog while we were at our wedding. She gave us peace of mind about our pup when we had a million other things going on! We would certainly use her services again.”
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was younger, cleaning the litter box once a day every day. I deep clean it with a hose, and dawn dish soap once a month and refill it with new litter.

About: Animals definitely perceive my positive attitude, and people do too. I genuinely love making cats and dogs happy. I often talk to any animal quite a bit because I believe a calm tone of voice is good for them psychologically. Additionally, I have taken care of multiple dogs and cats throughout the years, working in kennel facilities and through ownership, and I understand what is required to keep them happy and healthy. I have a flexible schedule, with much time to ensure your pets get the exercise he or she needs, and the attention they deserve. They won't be lonely while you're away! Additionally, I can administer any medications necessary and follow any special dietary restrictions. Your cats and dogs are in good hands with me! I center taking care of my own animals around my daily schedule. I do my best to keep their regular feeding times ,and for my dogs walking times at expected hours. It can be difficult, but it wouldn't be fair for them to not know what to expect. So ultimately, I adjust my required needs around their schedule in terms of errands, and etcetera. I care for pets in a way they are accustomed to; meaning regular schedules for feeding, walks and/or medication. If they are staying in my home, I would try to provide the most comfortable accommodations as possible while awaiting their people. But in a client's home, I would just coddle the pet, give them comfort, and again - keep them on the schedule they are accustomed to.

It helps build trust, keep things safe, and it is most successful for long term behavior. I like to include trick training during my visits.

Most importantly, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own, and I’ll keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you always know how they’re doing.

“Paula is very responsible and attentive to your concerns about your pets wellbeing. Having had two really bad experiences here with my pet, I wish all sitters were like Paula. A responsible adult with good common sense looking after your pets wellbeing. On top of that she lives in a nice neighborhood with her own backyard.”

“Im so glad I found Bertie and Lisette! They were gracious enough to accommodate my last-minute request and they are clearly pros at this. They were cognizant of keeping paws off the sidewalk in this heat and asked all the important questions. I’m always worried my pup will be sad the whole time I’m gone but her pups and their attentive care kept him smiling. I was so grateful to receive photos and videos while away too. Overall a great experience and I will definitely be back.”
“Scott was fantastic for Cali. He provided her with all of her favorite things: fetch and water! They are located right at the base of old rag trail head and was perfect for my day hike up the mountain where dogs are not allowed! Would book with Scott again.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 7 years, and it’s something I genuinely love. I have experience with dogs of all sizes from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra care and attention. I treat every pet like family and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Pet care is a regular and rewarding part of my weekly routine. I’m calm, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s needs making sure they get the right balance of exercise, playtime, and rest throughout the day. Pets stay in a clean, cozy, and pet-friendly space with plenty of room to relax or play, including a fully fenced yard where they can safely explore and enjoy the outdoors. There’s always someone home even if I need to step out briefly, my mom grandma or my boyfriend, who are both equally experienced and caring with pets, are always around to help. I usually introduce them during meet and greets so everyone feels comfortable and at ease
“Rebekah is a wonderful and caring sitter. I was nervous about leaving my dog but she helped ease that stress for me and Jacques. And OMG he had a wonderful time! She sent plenty of photos and updates, even took a video. He did great with her two dogs who are supercute and chill. I highly recommend her, and so does Jacques.”
“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 am definitely the biggest animal lover you will get to know! For years i’ve cared for and trained a wide range of animals wild and domestic.

Whether it's midday walks, medication schedules, or just extra snuggles, I’m consistently present and available to keep your pets happy and stress-free. My routine is built around their needs—because their comfort and well-being come first. 🐾 In my home, pets enjoy a safe, secure environment with a fully fenced yard and plenty of supervised playtime. My own friendly dogs are always happy to welcome new furry friends, but if your pet prefers one-on-one attention, I can provide a quiet, relaxed space just for them.

“I had a last minute emergency need for a dog walker for a pup that can be afraid of walking near cars, and had never met Caroline before. Unfortunately, I could not arrange for a meetup beforehand. Caroline was accommodating and understanding when Poppy did not want to walk on the second day, so instead she played with her in our yard. Thank you Caroline for filling this massive need for us and removing a big anxiety for us!”

I live in an apartment and I'm currently only available to do boarding with one dogs but will consider two if they are bonded pair. before any boarding or housesitting services confirmed, I require we meet in person to ensure all the details are understood and that your dogs are OK with my dog. I have a 30 pound beagle mix named Daisy who is three years old and she will be with me at all times. I am always available for drop in visits and dog walking. prices fluctuate due to various factors but the main ones these days are gas prices and distance of travel.

I am available at any time if you need me. i'm currently available for the following services: housesitting, pet boarding, drop in visit, dog walking for 30 minutes or 60 minutes, and one on one dog training. if your dog is with me, I live in a neighborhood that is very dog friendly. We have two dog parks and I am often at these dog parks at least once a day. However if you have a dog that is not comfortable with that I would not take them there.

In my home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of affection, daily walks, and playtime tailored to your pet’s needs. I keep the space clean, secure, and low-stress, with my own well-behaved dog Daisy as a companion if your pet is comfortable. When staying in your home, I’m respectful of your space and your pet’s routine. I follow all instructions closely, maintain regular updates, and work to ensure your pet feels safe and cared for in their familiar environment. I aim to build trust with both pets and their people every step of the way.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all ages and provided medications when needed including pills, eye drops, and shots! I also am flexible to what your pet’s routine already is! I’m home for summers from college (Go Dukes) and I’ve always loved animals, so pet-sitting is my only job over this time! I’m available all days throughout the week! When you’re vacationing in the summer I will look after your pets and give you peace of mind with pictures I take of them and I always leave your house looking like I was never even there!
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 7 years, and it’s something I genuinely love. I have experience with dogs of all sizes from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra care and attention. I treat every pet like family and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Pet care is a regular and rewarding part of my weekly routine. I’m calm, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s needs making sure they get the right balance of exercise, playtime, and rest throughout the day. Pets stay in a clean, cozy, and pet-friendly space with plenty of room to relax or play, including a fully fenced yard where they can safely explore and enjoy the outdoors. There’s always someone home even if I need to step out briefly, my mom grandma or my boyfriend, who are both equally experienced and caring with pets, are always around to help. I usually introduce them during meet and greets so everyone feels comfortable and at ease

“Aly was fantastic! My 11-year-old cockapoo Mittens was comfortable with her from the very beginning. She wagged her tail and made herself right at home. Aly kept up informed with adorable pictures, and we would be happy to board Mittens with her again. I'm sure Mittens would love it too!”
“Hank came home exhausted which means he had a blast. Cynthia did a great job in every Dept from communication to updates throughout the weekend. We were extremely pleased with her work.”
“So helpful, my booking was last minute and i greatly appreciate Whitney being able to watch my pups for me. My dogs were so warm out from playing so much at her house. Will definitely keep her at the top of my list!”
“This was our first time leaving Pepe with a sitter and our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous, you never really know who you’re leaving your dog with. But Riley was exceptional from the very beginning. Even before I booked her, she helped me figure out how the app worked and made the whole process easy. During Pepe’s stay, she kept me 100% informed at all times with photos, videos, and messages. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and professional. I truly felt peace of mind knowing Pepe was in her hands. I have no doubt he was well cared for, and I would absolutely book her again. Thank you so much, Riley, for treating Pepe like your own dog, we truly appreciate it.”
“Amanda was able to accommodate me on short notice and took great care of my dog. She kept me updated the whole time and was even flexible when my pickup time had to change. She'll be my first go-to the next time I need a sitter in Charlottesville.”
“Jocelin and Christian did an exceptional job caring for our pups. Jocelin shared pictures daily and made extra effort to give them the exercise our high energy young ones need. I highly recommend Jocelin for boarding your dogs.”
“Nigel loves Sarah & Scott's so much! I loved seeing the updates on him. They even were amazing on caring for him during the scary thunderstorm! Thank you!”
“Heidi and Lemon had a great experience! They came back tired but happy and healthy. I couldn't ask for a better sitter -- I'd definitely recommend and will be using them in the future if we need someone to watch the girls.”
“She was amazing! I received pictures and updates while our dog was in her care. It made me feel really at ease seeing my dog so relaxed and enjoying her home/property. She was even able to accommodate extending her stay due to our travel being delayed. I HIGHLY recommend her and will definitely be using her services again! Thanks again Heather!”
“Pam and MICHAEL are so caring and kind. Finley had a great time at their house playing in their backyard and with the other dog visitors. She was happy to see us but she also seems sad to leave. I would highly recommend Pam and MICHAEL.”
“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!!”
“Paige was great with our senior little dog. In addition to providing a safe and welcoming (temporary) home for our Ruthy. She provided regular updates w/pictures and even gave us a homemade holiday treat at pick up. We appreciate her prompt responses, welcoming atmosphere and safe environment. She helped take a lot of the stress out of holiday travel.”
“Jenny was terrific especially as she was challenged by my 70 lb lab grand-dog who got into everything, including some horse feed. She seemed to take it all in stride, the dogs seemed happy and all was well. I didn't realize how many dogs would be together that weekend; a good thing to ask if it matters to you. Our dog, Gracie, would love to return!”
“We ran into many different travel delays on our most recent trip and Heather was super understanding and flexible with our pickup and drop off times! It is so nice to be able to take summer trips knowing our pup is getting all the love & attention from Heather & her family.”
“Our dog Lincoln loved staying at Christine’s place! She took such good care of him, and he came home very happy! We enjoyed our vacation without having to worry about our dogs comfort of safety. Thank you Christine!”
“Soooo happy with Charissa! We drove quite a distance to bring Daisy to her for boarding because Daisy needed a little...no a lot...of professional training reinforcement. In our time at the Meet and Greet, we learned a lot about the care and training style Daisy would receive. We felt it to be truly balanced and something we could continue, in spite of our difficulties with giving corrections. In addition to seeing improvement, Charissa was very communicative, including many photos. (Excellent photos, too.) We will continue to make the drive and board with her in the future.”
“Cori is absolutely a perfect match! She is loving, attentive and generous with her tending to Louie. Her family is equally engaging and offer a comfortable environment for humans and pets equally. I feel very confident that Louie experienced canine Nirvana during his stay. I am happy to have booked more stays with Citi and highly recommend her.”
“Highly recommend these two, they were so nice and welcoming. My dog looked right at home with them and I had no worries. They send updates and pictures! Would book again!!”
“Fantastic experience, Jennifer’s frequent updates and pictures allowed us to be able to relax and enjoy our vacation. Her dog Charlotte and our puppy played well together. Our puppy keeps asking to go back. Totally will use Jennifer again, and highly recommend her.”
