Dog Boarding in Ivy

Bertie and family took wonderful care of our 13-year-old pup. They were very accommodating of her special dietary needs and super communicative, sending photos of her throughout the week to stay in touch. Highly recommend this amazing family!

Jesse and Emily are amazing! They took such great care of our dog and he clearly felt relaxed and right at home. Communication with them was a breeze and they sent wonderful updates. I would highly recommend them!

Paula is great! Knows dogs very well and can accommodate for special needs of our pups. We can’t recommend her highly enough. We have had our 2 dogs stay with her on several occasions and it has worked very well every time!

She did a great job taking care of Jetty and was with her all day. I really appreciated all the pictures she would send and it was a huge plus that she had a fenced in backyard. I can tell she truly cares for the animals she watches. Jetty mag have been a little too high energy, but it did not impact the high level of care she received. Thank you again!

I never left SmokeStack before and needed the ‘right-fit’ for his Rover adventure. Jani and her family provided a safe, secure and calm atmosphere for my sweet Smokestack. He assimilated into Jani’s house, and went to say goodbye to her before we departed.

Ava is very friendly and accommodating to your pets needs! I booked last minute and she was quick to respond to take in Frankie for the weekend. Huge fenced in yard for pets to roam. Would definitely have my pup stay again!

Riley was excellent! Drop off and pick up was a breeze. She communicated well and provided lots of good updates and pictures of Hank's stay. Highly recommend!

Brooke took good care of our pup who was happy & healthy & worn out with all his good times romping in her yard. Brooke kept me posted with regular photos & reassuring notes.

Aly is very warm and welcoming, and she helps our energetic and excited dog settle in and feel safe and comfortable for day care and for staying overnight. Our dog knows when we pull into Aly's neighborhood and can't wait to get out of the car and through Aly's front door -- that makes me feel safe and comfortable leaving her.

Alexandra and Logan were great! They communicated well, sent updates with photos and made out dog’s boarding experience very easy.

Jenny's place is a dog paradise! My puppy had the best time playing with her dogs and running around at the farm. I am SO glad we hooked up with Jenny and that she is willing to deal with my shy puppy's skittishness!

Such a caring animal lover. Jocelyn went above and beyond caring for our old girl and has the most positive attitude that helped us enjoy our trip to visit family.

Kathryn is great! She has a nice yard, and her house is very clean. She also uses filtered water for Momo, which we really appreciate. She was very responsive, even when we had to pick him up very early. Momo was clean and well taken care of when we picked him up.

If I could I’d give more than 5 stars. Cory is excellent with dogs and takes such good care of them. My Mollie has separation anxiety but she was super relaxed with Cory and just trotted off with him. He’s a great communicator and went out of his way to help us (as we’re on a roadtrip around the county in our camper). I highly recommend Cory and would book him again in a second if we’re ever back in the Charlottesville area.

Amazing!! Mark & Daniel were the PERFECT dog sitters for us! :) We received daily update photos of our dogs that showed they were as loved and taken care of as they are at home. Large fenced backyard = plenty of fun running around! Would recommend!!

Katina was absolutely amazing with Jetty! She provided daily updates with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She is incredibly kind, compassionate, and clearly loves and cares for the dogs she watches. I wasn’t clear on how much food to leave, so Jetty ran out—but she went above and beyond, offering to stop by my house to grab more, and I trusted her completely to do so. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely be booking with her again!

Brianne is so kind, communicative and clearly loved by my dog! I knew he was in good hands the whole time. We’ll definitely reach out to Brianne again next time we travel!

Very happy with Cynthia how she cared for our dog. We can trust her and she is obviously very knowledgeable about animals. All around great experience!

I highly recommend Caroline!! My dog stayed with her overnight while I moved into my new place in Cville. He’s a little anxious generally but he quickly bonded with Caroline and I immediately trusted her when we met. Caroline is super communicative and responsive and sends great photos and updates throughout the stay. I’ll definitely book her again and am super grateful to have found a pet sitter that is so great with my dog!
