“So grateful for Tiffany! She took wonderful care of our puppy for us and we had such a peace of mind knowing that she was loved on and cared for! We will be back!”
“Our mini golden retriever stayed an overnight with Kari and her sweet family. Cookie was embraced and became part of the family. She received great care and was very comfortable Cookie gave this dog airbnb a 5 star review. Thanks to Kari and her family. We hope to return again soon.”
“I really felt like Enzo was being taken care of the whole time I was gone. Emily was very kind and flexible with my schedule. I even got some really good professional grade pictures from her of Enzo! All around great experience.”
“John was wonderful with our elderly dog. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. John was above and beyond our expectations, he even gave us some new ideas to keep our dog more active. I don’t think our dog was ready to leave, thought he was on vacation too. I highly recommend John you won’t be disappointed.”
“I had surgery so I found Chantel to watch my two dogs for two weeks. Well, what turned into two weeks turned into four weeks total and Chantel was very gracious to keep my two dogs for another two weeks, which was quite unexpected. Chantel did a very good job in meeting their needs and keeping me informed of how they were doing. I would highly recommend Chantel in the future.”
“A super great experience in a friendly and loving environment. Brenda and Chief seem to love each other and have a great time together. Thanks again, Brenda. See you next time!”
“Our pup stayed with Marketa for a few nights while we were out of town. She was very communicative, sending lots of updates and pictures which we loved. Our pup seemed to be very comfortable at her house and came home happy!”
“Emily took wonderful care of our dog, Sunday. We weren’t sure what to expect at first, but her thoughtful updates quickly put us at ease. She was compassionate and attentive, especially given Sunday’s background as a shelter rescue, and made sure she felt safe and loved — complete with plenty of belly rubs. We would gladly book with Emily again and highly recommend her to other families.”
“Accommodated our last min plans, and took great care of our toy poodle. Wendy D sent pictures/videos of Hershey enjoying playing in her fenced in back yard, lounging on the couch and going on walks.”
“Jolene was absolutely amazing she treated our pepper just like family and kept us updated with messages and photos on how she was doing through out her stay. She had plenty of space to run, toys to enjoy, and friends to play with during her time there too. We will highly recommend jolene to anyone we know looking for someone to care for their pups. Thank you so much!”

About: Animals have always been a central part of my life. As a pet owner myself, I understand that our pets are family members, not just animals. My personal dogs receive the same love, attention, and care that I would want for any pet entrusted to me. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have more than 15 years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats, including owning and operating a nonprofit animal rescue for five years. Through my rescue work, I cared for hundreds of dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including puppies, seniors, special-needs pets, and dogs recovering from illness or surgery. I am experienced with administering medications, monitoring health concerns, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention or veterinary care. I know that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I will care for them as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Because I spend a significant amount of time at home, your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and potty breaks throughout the day. I understand the importance of maintaining routines and will work with you to ensure your pet’s schedule, feeding times, medications, and preferences are followed closely. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I can provide the level of care and attention they need. Safety is always my top priority. My experience running an animal rescue taught me how to properly introduce dogs, recognize signs of stress, manage different personalities, and provide a safe environment for pets with varying needs. I have a securely fenced yard and closely supervise outdoor time. I can also accommodate medications, special feeding instructions, crate training, and senior pet care.
“Love love love love!!!! Kaylyn was so flexible with us while I was relocating from the east coast to the west coast. There were many hiccups and she rolled with everything so kindly. We arrived around 8:30 pm at night which isn't an ideal hour to meet a stranger and their dog. Duma has separation anxiety and they loved on him, took him on 3 walks a day, and gave him treats… needless to say, Duma was in heaven and was no longer worried about where I went. I trust Kaylyn and her family. They are communicative, kind, reliable, and trustworthy. I would highly recommend Kaylyn to anyone looking for a safe person to care for their dog.”

Have worked with training puppies and kittens as well as spending time with seniors. Love all animals but particularly my big dogs! I am new to the area and wanting to get to know neighbors and Texas! Figured playing and walking pets would blend the best of both worlds to do that. I will ensure to keep pets safe and secure while being mindful of each pet family. At my home I ensure all doors and gates are shut and on walks harnesses and leashes are secure.

At this time I am not able to bring your pet into my home... however I am glad to assist you with your pets in your home
“This was our first time having someone drop by to check in on our fur babies. My cats can be a little scared of strangers, but Britt took it upon herself to ask if I wanted a meet and greet prior so they would feel more comfortable. The cats loved her then, and they were happy to gobble up their special wet food when she checked in on them while we were away on holiday. We appreciated the pictures to know they were happy and cared for. Britt's love and dedication for the pets she cares for is evident, and I will certainly be using her services again in the future!!!”
About: I’ve loved pets since i could remember, I have a german shepherd of my own. Animals are your sacred kids and need love as well! i’m currently working on part time, 3 days a week. 10hr shifts unfortunately but i’m usually pretty good at accommodating to YOUR schedule when it’s needed! I have my own german shepherd that can keep your fur baby company! I can kennel your dog if needed, and i have a safe yard to play in!
About: I’ve been around a lot of animals in my life and I have worked with dogs to a whole room of reptiles at a camp. I lived along side a parrot most my life and cats as well. I have been pet sitting for a lot of my life for friends, neighbors, and family! I pride myself on my love for animals and my ability to bond with them. I’m happy to do anything asked of me as well to make it easy for the pet owners and easier for the pets. I currently do not have a job because I left teaching to further pursue something I love which would be animals. Besides doing little trips here and there, I will be available most days, especially the mornings and evenings (so morning walks and evening walks for bed time). I can stay over night at houses as well. I am, of course, fine with weekends as well! I am working on making this my career as much as I can. I am trying not to have to go too far from home for dog walking but house sitting and pet sitting I’m fine to go farther especially when staying at the house there. It will cost more though. I am good with crating and good with most size animals. I work with all sizes. I love to interact and love on the animals instead of just going in, feeding and letting them out and that’s it. Unless for some reason your animal doesn’t want loving, I will do what they prefer. I also am always willing to brush your fluffy babies, I can help with that as well! I will only have myself and no other animal with me because I will not bring an animal to my home. I will like to meet and greet just to make sure I and the animal will get along okay.
“Katelyn did the best she could do with JT. She was very attentive and helped him come out of his shell, which was one of the goals I had in mind for JT. She is a great sitter and I would recommend for anyone’s pet!”

About: I have never gone without having pets. Growing up we had as many as 20 animals in total. I always strive to have a personal relationships with every animal I can. Have worked with training puppies and kittens as well as spending time with seniors. Love all animals but particularly my big dogs! I am new to the area and wanting to get to know neighbors and Texas! Figured playing and walking pets would blend the best of both worlds to do that. I will ensure to keep pets safe and secure while being mindful of each pet family. At my home I ensure all doors and gates are shut and on walks harnesses and leashes are secure.
About: I’ve been in a constant home of taking care of animals from a young age. I’ve trained over 6 dogs for basic training and have homed three cats. I’m versatile when it comes to new puppies as well as senior dogs. I’m a part time student so I’m mostly free in the evenings on weekdays and the weekends. For stop-bys and walks, I’m also free anytime before 9 am. In my own home I’ve got a lot of land for my own pets to roam within our land boundaries. Walking is a big part of giving pets time for exercise as well as calmer inside moments along with breakfast and dinner. Taking animals on rides to introduce them to different aspects of our world (exposure- therapy).
“Brittney was fantastic. She supervised our puppy while my fiancé and I did engagement photos. She brought her own homemade treats which he loved. Brittney made our lives immensely easier that day and clearly enjoys caring for dogs. If I lived in Charlottesville, I would trust my dog with her all the time.”

About: I have lots of experience working with a variety of different animals including dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and exotics. I have been assisting a friend for a few years walking dogs and figured it's time to offer my individual services! I will be home majority of the day to take care of any critters under my roof. I currently have no pets of my own to tend to other than some axolotls, so I am completely open to whatever needs an animal has. Inside my own home, I have a very minimalist approach to decor so there isn't much for animals to get injured on or involved with. I can take dogs out to the backyard for potty breaks and playtime and I also live a short walk from a park. Inside your home, I can care for a dog or cat however you instruct.
About: I’ve been around a lot of animals in my life and I have worked with dogs to a whole room of reptiles at a camp. I lived along side a parrot most my life and cats as well. I have been pet sitting for a lot of my life for friends, neighbors, and family! I pride myself on my love for animals and my ability to bond with them. I’m happy to do anything asked of me as well to make it easy for the pet owners and easier for the pets. I currently do not have a job because I left teaching to further pursue something I love which would be animals. Besides doing little trips here and there, I will be available most days, especially the mornings and evenings (so morning walks and evening walks for bed time). I can stay over night at houses as well. I am, of course, fine with weekends as well! I am working on making this my career as much as I can. I am trying not to have to go too far from home for dog walking but house sitting and pet sitting I’m fine to go farther especially when staying at the house there. It will cost more though. I am good with crating and good with most size animals. I work with all sizes. I love to interact and love on the animals instead of just going in, feeding and letting them out and that’s it. Unless for some reason your animal doesn’t want loving, I will do what they prefer. I also am always willing to brush your fluffy babies, I can help with that as well! I will only have myself and no other animal with me because I will not bring an animal to my home. I will like to meet and greet just to make sure I and the animal will get along okay.

“Our pup stayed with Marketa for a few nights while we were out of town. She was very communicative, sending lots of updates and pictures which we loved. Our pup seemed to be very comfortable at her house and came home happy!”
“Emily took wonderful care of our dog, Sunday. We weren’t sure what to expect at first, but her thoughtful updates quickly put us at ease. She was compassionate and attentive, especially given Sunday’s background as a shelter rescue, and made sure she felt safe and loved — complete with plenty of belly rubs. We would gladly book with Emily again and highly recommend her to other families.”

Thank you so much!”

About: Animals have always been a central part of my life. As a pet owner myself, I understand that our pets are family members, not just animals. My personal dogs receive the same love, attention, and care that I would want for any pet entrusted to me. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have more than 15 years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats, including owning and operating a nonprofit animal rescue for five years. Through my rescue work, I cared for hundreds of dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including puppies, seniors, special-needs pets, and dogs recovering from illness or surgery. I am experienced with administering medications, monitoring health concerns, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention or veterinary care. I know that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I will care for them as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Because I spend a significant amount of time at home, your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and potty breaks throughout the day. I understand the importance of maintaining routines and will work with you to ensure your pet’s schedule, feeding times, medications, and preferences are followed closely. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I can provide the level of care and attention they need. Safety is always my top priority. My experience running an animal rescue taught me how to properly introduce dogs, recognize signs of stress, manage different personalities, and provide a safe environment for pets with varying needs. I have a securely fenced yard and closely supervise outdoor time. I can also accommodate medications, special feeding instructions, crate training, and senior pet care.
“Cody was absolutely fantastic with Bella and Gracie. From the moment I dropped them off, I felt confident they were in great hands. He was incredibly kind and attentive—not only taking excellent care of them, but also spending quality time playing with them and making sure they felt comfortable and loved. He even went above and beyond by sending me videos and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Bella and Gracie really seemed at ease with him, and I could tell they had a great time. I would absolutely trust Cody to watch them again—no hesitation. Highly recommend!”
About: I have always had a great love for animals. Since I was a child with my first rabbit, I have helped care for family, friends and neighbors pets. Through the years I have had several dogs and cats. I currently own a farm with donkeys, cows, pigs and chickens. Here at the daycare, I have my own dogs, guiena pigs, hedgehogs, chinchilla and a turtle. I left the world of people. After caring for animals as a passion, I decided that I wanted to make a career out of it. I left the world of customer service so that I could focus on spending all of my time doing daycare and Boarding. My facility is open Monday thru Friday from 7am to 6pm. During those hours we operate daycare, intake and release for boarding and grooming. After hours we are here for feeding, walking, playing. I own and operate a boarding and daycare center for pets. I can care for and board any size animal from a goldfish to a horse. I live on site so your pets are looked after 24 hours a day. We have common areas where pets can interact if you wish, as well as private kennels. All pets are walked atleast 5 times per day in our fenced in back yard on or off leash. They have plenty of outdoor playtime when the weather permits. All areas of the building, including kennels are climate controlled. We also provide grooming services if you are intrested in having your et groomed during their stay. We provide food but you may also bring your own as well. We will feed on your schedule.
