It was a pleasure to have Cindy care for my cat Stella while I was away on an unexpected last-minute trip. Cindy sent frequent updates and photos, which provided a great comfort to me since I had only been home from a long trip 3 days before suddenly having to leave again. Stella seemed quite comfortable with Cindy's company! I returned home to a relaxed kitty and tidy apartment. Thank you, Cindy!
Elena
Apple Mountain Lake, Virginia
Quiet, reliable and responsible cat (and small dog) lady
This was our first time using a Trusted Sitter, and I'm so grateful Elena chose to stay with our precious pup. He's a senior dog that requires a little extra attention, and Elena was so kind and caring with him. From our very first zoom call to get to know one another, I knew Elena would be a great fit. She was very organized, told us what she needed to know, and was very flexible when our dates changed a bit. Elena sent several pictures of Beamer every day. My kids eagerly awaited to see what their brother was up to while we were away. He looked so happy in all of his pictures. She took him for walks and gave him plenty of cuddle time. Elena also took such great care of our home. We arrived back to a spotless house! Our experience with Elena was more than I could have hoped for using Trusted Sitter. It was like having an old friend stay over. I highly recommend Elena, and hope she will be available to stay the next time we go on vacation!

Hi! I am Olivia, and my partner's name is Belrie. We look forward to meeting you
I am so fortunate because I had to cancel this sit at the last moment and Olivia and Belrie were extremely understanding. All our communications leading up to the sit were phenomenal, and I can't wait to have them stay with Pearl soon.

I've lost track of the number of times Jasmine has house sit for us. As always she is reliable and responsive. I know my house and pets are in good hands with her. She is a great communicator. We came home to a clean house and happy kitties. I highly recommend her!
Sharon
Apple Mountain Lake, Virginia
Traveling professional with a love for new experiences!
Sharon was just a wonderful sitter. She has an engaging, positive personality and is full of energy. We were happy with the updates and photos of 2 content Goldens, whether on a trail or chilling by her feet. It is so wonderful to go away knowing your fur babies are loved and cared for in their own home. Will need to come up with a trip so we can invite this special lady back.
Jordan
Apple Mountain Lake, Virginia
Flexible, reliable, & adventurous married couple. Animal loving + Travel ready!
Jordan and Alexander were absolutely wonderful pet and house sitters during our 3.5 weeks away. Jordan kept in contact with us with pictures and updates about our dog, and it was clear both she and Alexander are real animal lovers. They took wonderful care of our home, plants and garden as well, and we came back to a clean and tidy house and a happy dog. If they had any questions, they would just ask, and they took care of everything that was needed while we were traveling. We highly recommend them for any house and pet sit opportunity, and hope they will come back to our home again next time we go away. Thank you, Jordan and Alexander!

Wanna-be dog mama wants to pamper your pup(s!)
This is Tammy’s second time here . The house is so neat and clean when we get home/ cleaner than when we left . Piper and Willow are hoping she comes back again !
Duha
Apple Mountain Lake, Virginia
I’m either fighting crime or with animals in my downtime <3
We loved having Duha sit for us. Communication was excellent and she needed little guidance after the initial walk-through. Both cats took to her immediately and really missed her when we returned. Duha even navigated some contract work outside the house when workers that we had been waiting on showed up unexpectedly. All in all, we had a great experience and would love to have Duha back any time.
Brandi
Apple Mountain Lake, Virginia
Solo sitter with the need to please loving animals while their owners are away.
This was the 2nd time Brandi housesat for us. She did an amazing job again and when I got home, I couldn't even tell that she has even stayed in our guest room because she is so neat! She kept me posted about all of our pets and sent photos. I would definitely trust Brandi to take care of our pets and home again!
Lisa
Apple Mountain Lake, Virginia
English/Theater Teacher (remote), Animal Spoiler, Humane Society Volunteer
What a great experience we had with Lisa. She was so good with Cella. She was very tolerant of Cella's early rising. She's a tiny little thing, but has a big personality and knows what she wants. Lisa was so good at reading her needs. We were able to have a zoom interview with Lisa before we confirmed the sit. She stayed in touch with us daily and kept us updated on how things were going. When we arrived home, Lisa had washed all of the bedding and towels. She vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned the kitchen and bathroom. We couldn't be more pleased with Lisa as our sitter for Cella. We hope we'll be able to have her again. She was awesome.

Natalie and Christian were dream pet sitters while we were out of the country for 2.5 weeks. From start to finish, they were reliable and professional, with excellent communication. They had took great care of our dog and chickens and left the house and car in great shape. Plus, they’re just a really sweet young couple. We’d highly recommend them as house sitters.
Robert & Rebecca
Angela did a great job caring for Willie for 10 days while we were out of town. She was easy to communicate with and kept us informed about Willie, along with sending photos of him out on walks and at the beach. Angela was very accomodating when we needed to come home a day early - Thank you! The house was left in good shape and it's clear that Angela is organized and reliable and clearly loves her pet charges. I'd recommend Angela and will definitely include her as one of our top sitter choices in the future! Thanks again, Angela!
Brooke
Sharon was a fantastic sitter for our week away! She left the house as tidy and clean as we left it, including changing the sheets for our arrival. I truly cannot even tell she was here and that made coming home after a long travel day so much easier. She was communicative every step of the way and provided daily updates on our cat with photos. We knew our home and pet were in good hands! I would gladly welcome Sharon back any time should we be so lucky : )
Barrett
Caitlyn, KJ, and their pup Sully were excellent house guests and pet sitters, and we would highly recommend them! I was able to meet Caitlyn and KJ prior to them house sitting for us, and we are always super appreciative when sitters are able to make that work and are willing to take time out of their schedule to come over and get the lay of the land. Their dog Sully was full of good boy energy and was a great playmate for our two Golden Retrievers. During the stay, Caitlyn & KJ sent us photos every day and followed all of our instructions for pet care to a T. They were super self-sufficient and gracious guests that left our place looking just like it did when we left, and we were very at peace knowing that our dogs were in great hands, getting lots of exercise, and romping around with new friend Sully. Don't hesitate to book this family of three, your house and your pets will be well-looked after!
Kristina and Doug
Hanna did an excellent job sitting Molly, Eddie, Jasper, and Miley. She communicated well, took notes on our initial meet and greet. She went out of her way to help us get the dogs to a kennel when we experienced a family emergency and could not extend her sit due to work commitments. The dogs loved her and the shy kitties came out of greet her mid stay. She left our home immaculate and well cared for. She is truly a winning pet sitter in our eyes! We hope she can come again sometime.
Samantha and Dan
Kelly and Chris are lovely people and we loved having them at the house! They were very engaged from the start, asking questions and wanting to know all the details on our pets. We were completely comfortable going away and didn’t worry during our trip knowing our kiddos were in such great hands. K & C gave us pics & updates as requested, and we loved seeing our pets have such a good time with them! They left the house in as good or better shake as it was found, laundering and folding linens and tidying up so well we could hardly tell they stayed here! They were communicative before the sit, during, and after. Kelly and Chris were the ideal sitters in every way. We’d welcome them back anytime and highly recommend them to others. Thanks you two!

Duncan was an excellent pet sitter and looked after our old girl Cookie really well.

Ramona and Brandon were the perfect sitters! They rescued me and were very accommodating with my needs. Ramona's communication with me was A1. We spoke multiple times before she arrived and throughout the sit. She was good at keeping me updated and I was very grateful for that, being so far away. The pets gravitated toward them from the moment they arrived and you could see that all she and Brandon wanted to do was spoil the pets with lots of cuddles. My female pup was in heat and they handled that very well and were able to keep her and my male dog separated. I could only imagine how exhausting that may have been but they didn't complain one bit. Ramona and Brandon had to hand over the sit to another sitter and were kind enough to write out the details and everything they observed to make the transition a seamless one. I must say, it helped tremendously. I'd have them back in a heartbeat to sit for me as they showed that I could trust them, not only to take care of my pets but to respect my home they way they would their own. Thanks again for making my trip away worth it!

Jeremy and Brooke were fantastic! We have a senior dog and a over hyper pittie. They gave Daisy her meds and had lengthy walks with Fin to burn off some of his energy. Brooke sent me regular texts to show me precious pictures of the pups by the Christmas tree, which warmed my ❤️. The house looked great when we returned. They are awesome detailed sitters and will make your pets feel loved and secure!!

Kuldip exceeded all the expectations we had from a Zeewoi. She took over from another sitter when we got stuck out of country due to a family emergency. A highly energetic person yet extremely organized, she easily matched the energy level of my 2-year-old Border Collie Pavo. She not only exercised him multiple times every day, but even him bought him new doggy toys and treats (much appreciated!). She got along very well with our neighbor and with their combined help Pavo got a much needed doggy bath! With her by my dogs side we were worry-free and able to focus on our family needs. Lastly, she left a pleasant surprise when we came back home. Our home looked squeaky clean and beautifully organized. Kuldip is a gem of a pet sitter and we would love to have her back for our fur baby without any hesitation. I highly recommend her!

Only good things to say about Rhiannon! Her rates are affordable and her level of service and care is top notch. My cat took to her immediately and loved snuggling with her in my absence! I got daily updates and photos, giving me peace of mind and assurance that my cat was well cared for and loved. I wouldn't hesitate to use her services again. 10/10 recommend!
Finding Rhiannon has been a true blessing for us and our fur family! Her kindness, professionalism, and thorough communication bring us so much peace of mind while we are away. Each of our 4 cats has some kind of bizarre special need, requirement or preference. All of our requests (and some were embarrassing to ask, lol) were met with a carefree "No problem!" response from Rhiannon. Needing the most care is our 18-year-old senior, Iommi, who has inflammatory bowel disease. When we are away, it is extremely stressful on her sensitive system. Rhiannon understands this completely and showers her with loving energy during every visit, and is able to pill her with ease. How comforting it is to receive photos and updates that all is well with Iommi and her partners in crime! In addition to fulfilling all of the quirky requests and needs of our motley crew, Rhiannon goes above and beyond the normal call of duty to make sure everything is in order when we return. When we walk in the door, everyone is so content that it seems like we never left! We trust Rhiannon like family, and really couldn't ask for more in a pet sitter. If you are looking for truly exceptional, loving care for your furry companions, we highly recommend Misty Mountain Pet Sitting!
We were referred to Rhiannon by a friend and couldn't be happier we crossed paths with her and Misty Mountain Pet Sitting! We have two CRAZY huskies but Rhiannon was so great with them. She set aside all my worries with her knowledge, kindness and professionalism. She checked in with us every day and truly cared for our pups. Look no further for a sitter. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone!
I can’t say enough good things about Rhiannon and the quality service she provides to our pets when we’re away. We’ve been using Misty Mountain for years now (multiple time a year and for varying amounts of time) and there’s no one I trust more to care for our three kitties. She’s reliable, caring, communicative and - better yet - our crew loves her. We’re always able to enjoy our time away knowing our furry family members are in good hands!
Rhiannon is a very caring dog sitter and trainer! She comes to your house to meet your pet and has lots of knowledge from years of experience.
Rhiannon is patient, kind, and goes above and beyond with customer service. Highly recommend Misty Mountain Pet Sitting !

Jeff and John are good fellas👍 We trust them with our entire pack when we go away vacations. We filled this entire quadrant with our livestock guardian dogs. They have 4 sections this size. And they aren't afraid to handle dogs that others might call dangerous either... That's an extra bonus! 👌 We'll never have a reason to go elsewhere. If you're looking for "pet spa" type of place you might want to look closer to the city. If you need a reliable and dependable place to house your real dog... You've found your place! 👍😉👍
We have used Willow Run Kennels a few times now and they dona fantastic job watching our doggo. The accomodations are very basic, but they are very nice and friendly there. They are our go to place when we need boarding.
My parents introduced me to Willow Run Kennel and I'm grateful they did. They used to bring their Shepherd here and I've begun bringing my own dogs. Picked up Pups today, they smelled fine, were well taken care of and John was able to give me a nice report of how they behaved at the kennel. I gave Jeff a list of my pup's medicine at drop off and they were able to keep up her steroid treatment. 👍🏻
I have been boarding my pets here for years. Very trustful and kind owners. My pet is always in great hands when left here. Zero behavioral issues when I pick them up. I will continue to use them for their services for years to come. I would 100% recommend them for kennel services to anyone. Thanks for your services!
Agree with CB on the prior review. Jeff and John are salt of the earth kind of people. They provide a clean, safe environment for your pet(s). We've been going there for years and trust them like family. Now if you're the kind of folks who like your pets to have access to TV and fine art on the wall during their stay along with pedicures and manicures, this place is not for you. But if your pets like fresh air and a safe, peaceful environment you will be pleased.
Great great people! Great with my dogs! Their kennels r always clean, you couldn't ask for a better safe place for your pets! I love this place and my dogs do too!!
WARNING!!! DO NOT BOARD YOUR DOGS HERE!!! If I could give Willow Run Kennels zero stars, I would - for negligence and mistreatment. We entrusted our two dogs to Jeff and John at Willow Run Kennel. When we dropped them off they both had a clean bill of health and were in great condition. We left multiple contact numbers with Jeff/John for them to let us know should the dogs need anything or should Willow Run need to contact us for any reason. Further, during our trip, we called to check up on the dogs and were told by John that they both were great and that everything was fine. However, when we picked them up - “great” and “fine” were the furthest from the truth. Both dogs were unrecognizable - they had lesions all over their bodies, and faces. We scheduled an emergency visit to the vet where the vet declared they were severely dehydrated, had bacterial infections, and mange. When we spoke to Jeff to ask how this could have happened, he brushed it off with excuses and blamed the situation on “misjudgment”. We trusted Willow Run Kennels with our precious dogs - two lives - and the neglect and abuse that our dogs experienced at the Kennel is incomprehensible and unforgivable. We truly have no words and are heartbroken by the way our dogs were mistreated. In addition to other actions we are taking we private regarding this matter, we want to tell others what happened so that you do not make the same mistake that we did. We would STRONGLY advise everyone to please STAY AWAY - for the sake of your animals. Do NOT board your pets here. Do NOT trust this place or these people.
Great place. Our lab mix has spend ~45 days there over the past few years. You can't beat the value. Now, if you're snoody, and expecting "fancy" then maybe you'd prefer the places that cost 4x a day. For us and our dog, this place is a God send! Jeff and family are great people, and the dogs are all fine and happy there.
Place is filthy and dogs don’t have food or water. Very tiny place for any exercise and dogs not happy. Possible animal abuse. Will never return. Father and son put on a good face, but dogs mistreated.
I trust Willow Run with our fur babies every time we leave town and I have for the last five years. Our pups actually get excited every time we hit the gravel road to the kennel!! They are reliable, consistent, and give the best care to animals.
