“Our two dogs were so well cared for! The communication and coordination of schedules were stellar. We received regular pictures to see that they were okay while we were gone, so we didn’t have any worries during our vacation gatherings. Their dog Jax was so friendly to our two small dogs, and the cats left them their space. They were so attentive to notice that one of our dogs wasn’t eating, and gave multiple offerings to make sure he got what he needed. The walks and the fenced back yard and the kids around helped our dogs get what they needed while we were out. Such a great family!”

11. Courtney W.
About: Nice to meet you! My name is Courtney! I am 23 years old and currently live in Bristow, Virginia! I created my business because I too struggled to find a reliable dog sitter for my pets. I wanted to provide professional, trustworthy care to my fellow pet owners. People have described me as confident, responsible, and compassionate. I am very passionate about working with pets. I’ve worked with hundreds of dogs, ranging from all dog breeds and sizes. Take me to a dog park and I can tell you about every single dogs play style, body language and behavior. My dog sitting and boarding sets me apart from other sitters because I have studied the canine mind and know that dogs have additional needs such as enrichment and reinforcement; Which is essential for a healthy and happy dog. I am extremely knowledgeable in a wide variety of dog health issues, as I’ve worked with blind dogs, deaf dogs, and dogs with special needs. “Animals are such agreeable friends - they ask no questions; they pass no criticisms.” George Eliot My daycare hours are Monday-Friday, from 9AM-5:30PM. On Tuesdays, drop off is at 8:45AM. Weekends are on a case by case basis. If for some reason the drop off and pick up hours don’t work, we can change it on a case by case basis with a week in advance notice. My drop off times for boarding range from AM to PM. My am drop off times are between 8-10AM, and PM from 5-7PM. Drop off in the mornings will count as a full day of day care. Usually, owners will do a night drop off and a morning pickup. I appreciate owners being as close to a planned time as possible to allot time for myself and other clients. I am a full time dog trainer and am home every day, all the time! I love to hike, swim, and take the dogs out! I have an entire room dedicated to my dogs and dogs who stay with me. For my clients homes, I follow whatever their dogs usual routine is, to keep them most comfortable. I usually recommend senior dogs and dogs with health conditions to stay at their own home, so they have less anxiety. A lot of dogs have a bit of anxiety away from home, which is why I incorporate mind enrichment sessions and structured walks daily.
12. Ami W.
“10 Stars!!! ⭐️ My experience with Ami was absolutely incredible. Super easy drop off/pick up. She provided a clean and comfortable environment. Communication was prompt and I got lots of photo/video updates. My dog loved playing with the other dogs and running in their big backyard. Kiddie pool is a real treat! We could tell Luna had the best time during her stay, she came home happy and tired. Highly recommend Ami and will continue to use her services!”
13. Sheetal B.
“Sheetal is a loving, trustworthy pet lover. She is kind & gentle with the dogs. She is consistent with commands so the pets know what to expect & are responsive to her.

About: Now you can go away and relax during your stay, knowing that even though you'll miss them, you won't have to worry about your little furry loved ones, because they will be well cared for. I have 2 small dogs that I love a lot and I know the uneasy feeling you get when you have to consider the options of what to do with your pet/s when you go away. Well no worries, your small dog (dogs) can stay with us. They will feel right at home in a clean, comfortable house with lots of natural light, a large deck to relax on for fresh air as well as a cozy fenced in, nicely manicured back yard for plenty of safe outdoor play time with the two resident dogs of the house. I will also send you updates via text or email so you can see your baby is relaxed and having a good time. Your dog will also enjoy daily walks on a nice paved scenic walking path that passes directly behind my back yard. This path allows for leisurely strolls through the back of the community safely tucked away from high traffic streets and road noise. I may sit for 1-4 guest pups depending on the circumstances. Why I love dog sitting I grew up in a household that always had at least one dog but usually there would be two. With exception to a standard size poodle we once had, all our other dogs were small. Mostly we had Poodles but there was a time when we had two Miniature Pinschers. I'm now well into my 50's, and on my 50th birthday my husband decided it was a good idea to get me a puppy. (What was he thinking...lol...). Six months later I decided that my puppy needed a puppy. I cherish my two dogs. They make my heart smi Meet my pets Resident pets Frenchie ......a 3 year old 11 pound Maltipoo. Ozzie .......a 2 1/2 year old 6 pound Maltipoo. About my yard I have an aluminum fence around my back yard that is woven with deer netting to keep all the pups in that belong, while keeping other dogs and critters out. The yard is a nice size for several small size dogs to romp around in yet small enough that the dogs are never out of my line of sight. The yard is mostly grass with a small landscaped area filled with large pieces of bark, were dogs can dig and bury without getting dirty.There is a nice shade tree plus the overhang of my deck that provides constant shade as well as protection from the outside elements. There is also a small paved patio were the dogs can relax. You can access my backyard via my walkout basement door onto the patio.

17. Nicole K.
“Nicole is amazing! She has watched my 5 month old puppy Rosie a few times now for daycare and is so caring and responsive. Her two dogs play really well and get Rosie nice and tired by the end of the day. It's often hard to get my pup to leave because she's having so much fun! Overall, highly recommend and will definitely be bringing my dog back in the future!”
18. Tracii B.
“Adobo had the greatest time! Highly recommend Tracii. She kept me posted with messages, photos, and a video. We will definitely keep her number one on our Rover list. Happy Fur Babies —- priceless!”
19. Razelle I.
“Razelle was the best! Warm, welcoming and I left my fur baby with no hesitation. Naomi isn’t a well socialized dog so any TLC and any companionship is very appreciated. Razelle has a kind manner, and gentle demeanor that my pup loved. Thank you Razelle for a welcomed play date. We will see you again soon!”
20. Morgan S.
About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Dogs, cats, hamsters, farm animals, you name it; I’ve probably taken care of it. My entire world is my pets, I have a beautiful Bengal cat named Georgia and a sweet baby girl dog named Mabel. My love for animals will forever be a part of me and It would bring me tremendous pleasure in taking care of your fur babies ❤️🥰 I’m a current student focusing on my Bachelors of Science in Healthcare Administration. I am a mom of a six year old boy. I am home all day everyday doing school work, and hanging with my pets. It would be an absolute joy to bring some friends in for my pets to play with here and there. Caring for pets and animals in general is big in my book. I talk to them as if they can fully understand me, only because they deserve respect and safety. My cat is a indoor and outdoor cat who stops in every hour or so to say hi and head right back outside and my dog is my shadow. Caring for them is easy and so is loving them. Every pet owner likes to know they’re dropping their fur babies off with a safe and responsible person, and I promise to be just that and more. My heart is forever open to host and take care of anyones animals (even if it is a snake!) That’s just how much I devote my time to taking care of your animals ❤️
