“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!”
“This was Charlie’s second stay with Alyssa & Sean. They were fantastic again, and you can tell Charlie was well taken care of while we were away. They sent daily updates with pictures and some videos. Charlie enjoys his time with them, and they are definitely 5-star sitters!”
“Gouda loved his time with Kendyl! She was responsive and great with sending us updates while he was there. Will absolutely be using Kendyl in the future for dog boarding!”
“Danielle and her crew were great! She was very responsive to my messages and was able to watch my doggo on very short notice. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in her care. If you're ever in Harrisonburg, choose her!”
“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!”
“Our very odd border collie, had a good weekend. Jo was able to read her mind, a requirement, and tell our Suzy that "Yes she needed to go out." Suzy worries about rabbits or cats lurking in the shadows." The first night Suzy slept in the bathroom, a safe place, but the second night she slept in the bedroom with everyone else. The additional good news, Suzy does not have stress diarrhea because of her visit.”
“Jenesis did a wonderful job caring for our dog, Millie. Jenesis was very prompt in responding to my texts and answered all my questions. I had no hesitations about leaving Millie in her care. Jenesis sent me really nice pictures of Millie several times during her stay, and honestly they are better pictures than the ones I take, lol. I would highly recommend Jenesis for any pet sitting that you need! She is thoughtful, caring and professional.”
“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.”
“Mimi had a great time staying with Hazzar and her friendly pups and family. Hazzar kept me updated with pictures and tips for treats or types of food that Mimi liked while on her "pup vacation" and I felt confident Mimi was in good hands! Highly recommend Hazzar as a caring, reliable pet sitter guaranteed to take care of your pup and any stress you may feel leaving your pup.”
“We felt so comfortable leaving our dog with Beth. it was obvious that she loved dogs. She took such great care of our dog. We will certainly be using Beth as a sitter again when we have need.”
“Thank you so much, Svitlana, for taking such great care of my dog! You were incredibly helpful and excellent at communicating, both during the initial meet and greet and throughout the stay. I especially appreciated the photos and videos you shared – it really put my mind at ease. I’m so grateful for all your help!”
“Aly dog sat our Charlie boy for a few night and was awesome! Super responsive; sent updates and daily photos of Charlie. Much better experience for our guy vs. boarding at a kennel/boarder. Will absolutely rebook with Aly in the future!”
“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!!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”

“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 !!”

“Brandy did a great job watching our dog Summer for the day! She provided us updates and pics all through the day, providing us extra reassurance that Summer was having a good time and settling in nicely. We will definitely reach out to Brandy again the next time we bring Summer down to Massanutten!”

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! We both work from home, and have opposite schedules when leaving the house, so one of us is normally home! 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.

We love hiking and neighborhood walks, which I can schedule for your pet, per your preferences. I have 2 dogs, who can be separated from yours, as needed. I have .5 acres, surrounded by an invisible fence. Leashes are used on all walks and a doggie seat belt will be used in the event that we need to travel by car.

As a sitter I promise to love and care for your babies as much as you would while you are away and provide the uppermost comfortable environment that you and your dog will feel comfortable with. Me and my family are looking to provide the best care we possibly can. I will trust and care for your dog with my family the best we possibly can.

“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!!!”
“We were visiting the area and needed a sitter in a pinch. Cory responded within minutes and was ready to take Juno in that same day. 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!”
About: All my life I've loved and cared for animals. Cats, dogs, goats, chickens, cows, fish, you name it. I've got 20+ years of experience. The past 11 years I've discovered my love for bulldogs. I have a happy family of rescue frenchies, a Great Dane, a kunekune pig, goats and even an African Zebu steer. I have previous experience working in veterinary clinics. In my previous life I was a bloodhound search and rescue handler as well. I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, large and small dogs, cats and a variety of other critters as well. I think animals are wonderful souls and I treat them all with respect and love. My life, my little farm, my routine and personal schedule revolve around my dogs and other critters. I work from home so my availability is usually quite flexible. I have a nicely fenced yard where dogs can run and play. If a dog is boarding with me, or in daycare, they will have plenty of playtime throughout the day. When the dogs are done playing and it's time to rest, I have dedicated rooms with comfy crates and playpens. I am very comfortable taking care of senior dogs or those that need a little extra tlc.
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.
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.
“Magda and Chris took amazing care of our dog Jett! She got to run around in their yard and relax inside. Magda and Chris were extremely kind and graceful, we were able to hike Old Rag while our dog got to frolick - all around ideal ❤️ thank you again”
About: * If you live in Poland I will give you a 10% discount on house sitting Hi, I’m Makaylah! I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and have experience with a wide range of pets—including dogs, cats, rabbits, rats, hamsters, mice, and chickens. I work from home full-time, which means I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I practice positive reinforcement only. 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. I've helped dogs learn sit, down, shake, speak, spin, and touch (nose to hand). It’s a great way to keep them mentally engaged and build confidence, especially for anxious pups. I also have experience in administering oral medications and caring for senior animals. 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. Im wfh and have pets of my own so I'm always home! My schedule is overall very flexible, and I can shift things around to make things work especially for repeats. Go on vacation or give yourself a weekend away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will follow your care instructions closely and keep routines consistent to help your pet feel secure. At my home, I have a fully fenced yard where they can play and explore safely. No matter the place, I will focus on maintaining a calm, secure environment.

I keep the living area clean, regularly cleaning litter boxes, picking up waste, and maintaining tidiness. For client homes, I check for safety hazards, secure gates, and ensure all pet access points are safe. Enrichment & Socialization I provide a variety of toys, scratching posts, and chew items to encourage natural behaviors. I spend quality time with pets through play, cuddling, and talking to build trust and reduce stress. I may reinforce basic training or good behavior during care. Communication & Consistency I follow the owner’s schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime to maintain routine and reduce anxiety. For client pets, I give regular updates via text, photos, or video to keep owners informed and reassured. I honor any specific instructions the owner has for care, feeding, or behavior. Special Considerations If I specialize in senior pet care, I provide gentle handling, extra attention, and a calm environment to support their comfort. For boarding or day care, I maintain a clean, safe, and welcoming space with plenty of social interaction. By combining consistent routines, attentive care, and a safe, pet-friendly environment, I ensure pets are happy, healthy, and well-cared for, whether they are in my home or a client’s.

I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by following their normal routines as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I respect their space, keep the environment clean, and make sure pets have fresh water, meals on schedule, exercise, attention, and plenty of affection. I pay close attention during walks and outdoor time to keep pets safe and secure at all times. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and in good hands while they’re away.
About: Hi! I am a lover of all animals and am excited to meet your fur babies! I recently had to put down my golden retriever mix so I currently just have a 14 year old shorthair cat. I grew up in a household full of dogs (mainly black labs) and a few cats and have been around them my whole life. I am also a former SPCA volunteer of 2 years. Can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I am a full time stay at home mom to a toddler who also loves animals just as much as I do. He is very shy but loves meeting new pets. I have a cat but she doesn’t enjoy other animals very much so I currently am not able to bring your animals into my home. However, I will make sure your pets are well taken care of and comfortable if their home.

“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!”
“This was Charlie’s second stay with Alyssa & Sean. They were fantastic again, and you can tell Charlie was well taken care of while we were away. They sent daily updates with pictures and some videos. Charlie enjoys his time with them, and they are definitely 5-star sitters!”
“Gouda loved his time with Kendyl! She was responsive and great with sending us updates while he was there. Will absolutely be using Kendyl in the future for dog boarding!”
“Danielle and her crew were great! She was very responsive to my messages and was able to watch my doggo on very short notice. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in her care. If you're ever in Harrisonburg, choose her!”
“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!”
“Jenesis did a wonderful job caring for our dog, Millie. Jenesis was very prompt in responding to my texts and answered all my questions. I had no hesitations about leaving Millie in her care. Jenesis sent me really nice pictures of Millie several times during her stay, and honestly they are better pictures than the ones I take, lol. I would highly recommend Jenesis for any pet sitting that you need! She is thoughtful, caring and professional.”
“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.”
“We felt so comfortable leaving our dog with Beth. it was obvious that she loved dogs. She took such great care of our dog. We will certainly be using Beth as a sitter again when we have need.”
“Pam and Michael are terrific. They really care about your dog like they are their own. We always felt confident that Finley was in good hands when we were away. Pam and Michael are off the beaten path but conveniently located on the way to Dulles from Charlottesville and they are consistently available for long trips. We highly recommend them.”
“Aly dog sat our Charlie boy for a few night and was awesome! Super responsive; sent updates and daily photos of Charlie. Much better experience for our guy vs. boarding at a kennel/boarder. Will absolutely rebook with Aly in the future!”
“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!!”
“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!”
“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.”
“My highly anxious dog had a wonderful vacation! Gloria made him so comfortable he didn’t cry when I left, and he was a happy boy when I got back. Loved the pictures Gloria sent me! It was comforting knowing my baby was in good hands. He’s a rescue that I have had for less than 2 months, so I am beyond grateful for finding such a great last minute board for him.”
“Magda and Chris were amazing. So kind and caring with Mogi. Magda sent me regular check ins that showed how comfortable Mogi was with them. It was great knowing that Mogi was safe and happy during my weekend away.”
“Jon and his family were very gracious hosts for our furry family member. He was very thorough in asking about our beagle’s needs and provided all necessities for a successful stay: crate, bed, fenced yard, and lots of play and spoiling! It was comforting knowing that it was more of a retreat for our dog than boarding, and Jon went above and beyond to make things easy and successful. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog in his hands and will be return customers! Thanks!”
“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!”
About: I have grown up with big dogs such as pit bulls and huskies and love them dearly I really love how playful and caring they are. I trained both my family pitties since they were puppies I’m currently only working 30hrs a week can board for you starting Sunday nights till early Wednesday morning have space for animals to play and run I live in a house on a 1 acre property no fences so as long as your dog is properly trained and no risk of them running away I don’t mind letting them roam free if not I can just walk them around on a leash. As for cats same difference I have a back patio to allow them to be in the sun and have fresh air and all the space they deserve
