Top rated Arlington house sitters
“Emily was amazing! She was so active and engaged with our dogs the entire time. You could tell she genuinely cared and made sure they were not only safe but also happy and comfortable while we were away. It’s such a relief to find someone who makes us feel at ease about leaving and makes our dogs feel right at home. We’ll absolutely be using her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone needing help with dog sitting or even fostering support. She’s a gem”
“Miss Holly was amazing with our animals, they were very well taken care of. Everything was exactly as we left it upon our return. I would definitely recommend her and would use her again if the need arises.”
“Tonya did a great job taking care of all my fur and feather babies! I really appreciate how she kept my house clean as well. I would definitely recommend her and ask her to come again!”
“Our dogs just love Kim! She always caters to their every whim, allowing me the peace of mind to travel when I need to. They remembered her from the last stay we had booked with her making the transition when we left that much smoother! I never have to worry with Kim on the job!”
“Deanna was very responsive and easy to book with. She took great care of my dogs and my home. It was nice receiving updates and photos during our trip of our pets. I would definitely book with Deanna again and would recommend her for home and pet sitting.”
“Toni swooped in at the last minute when another Sitter backed out on me! During the meet and greet, she got right down on the floor with Pucca to meet her and play with her. Pucca absolutely loves her! I could tell by the way Pucca got majorly excited and happy when Toni came back for a visit today to pick up a couple of things that were accidentally left behind. Pucca was so happy to see her that I'm convinced she was treated well and with love and affection. I was away for 8 days. Toni arrived on time and I was able to get an early visit start so that I could make it to the airport on time. When my friend's truck broke down and I thought I may be later than expected arriving home, she had no problem with it. (I was on time though). She even said she didn't mind taking Pucca to my Vet to get her Citopoint shot and glands done. (I was going to get an appointment when I got home, now I don't have to). With my permission, she took Pucca along with her to her place when she went home to do laundry. When I asked for a Video Chat here and there, I was accommodated. It is my opinion that Pucca was well loved, cared for and looked after while I was away. ***NOTE*** Upon my return, I found a typwritten "Toni's Care Notes for Pucca" stating her eating habits, walk schedule & health. Nice touch.”
“This is the second time Camille helped us out and she was great again. I love how well she communicates with us while we’re gone and I trust that my animals are receiving the best care.”
“We are so happy to have found Amanda. She dog sat at our house for a long weekend and I can’t say enough good things about her. Our two large collies were so comfortable with her that they acted like we’d only been gone a few hours when we came home.”
“We had Lindsay house sit and watch our pets while we were gone for a holiday and everything went smoothly. She kept us updated and sent pictures and we came home to happy pets and a clean house.”
“Tish was incredible with our kitties! Very attentive, sent lots of updates and photos, and they absolutely loved her! It gave us such peace of mind to have her around and taking care of them while we were away. Will definitely reach out to her again the next time we are traveling!!”
“We were so grateful that Ayah and her husband were able to care for our dog and house during Thanksgiving break so that we visit with our extended family. This was our first time with a house/dog sitter, so we were a little nervous. They met us and our pup a couple of weeks prior to us leaving, which boosted our confidence. They were very respectful of our house and left it in great condition. (They even asked for permission in advance to invite a family member over for a few hours for Thanksgiving Day.) Ayah was responsive to our communication throughout the trip, and we were so glad to see our happy pup upon our return. We were appreciative that he could stay on his own couch all week and have a stress-free week with new friends. :)”
“Alexis and Dakota we’re both so amenable to my very specific asks for Gus. Alexis updated me several times a day while checking in on him and toon him on several longer walks that I wish I personally would make more time for! Despite his stress and lack of eating, they both attempted to care for and feed him (even hand feeding) when they could. I appreciate all their help and dedication to Gus’ well-being.”
“Baylee was above and beyond what I could have ever asked for! I only hope she's available next time we need her! I felt so safe and stress free with our babies in her care. Can't sing her praises enough!!”
“Ali arrived on time and our dog Monty immediately took to her. She sent several pictures and followed our instructions flawlessly. Professional and courteous and we look forward to asking her again.”
“We had to go out of state for a funeral, our Dog had never been left longer than 6hrs, we just got home after 5days & our dog was like a brand new pup who would mind, go play & be a sweet thing!!! We are so impressed w/Michael we for sure be using him again!!! Thanks again Michael!!”

I will easily make sure your pup is walked multiple times a day and given two meals.

About: Dogs aren’t just pets — they’re family. I have an adventurous dog myself, and we spend hours exploring forests, rivers, and fields. I know how to keep energetic pups happy, healthy, and well-exercised. Whether your dog needs a calm companion or an active hiking buddy, I’m ready with a leash and a smile! Pet care is part of my everyday life. I walk my own dog daily, rain or shine, and love including other pets in my weekly routine. I plan my schedule around their needs to make sure they get the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. I have a small open backyard that is not fenced, so I always use a leash and closely supervise any pet outside. I make sure they get enough exercise, love, and attention. I also have a medium-sized dog of my own who is friendly and can be a great companion for your pet.
“If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Gina did an amazing job with my pups. My dogs warmed up to her pretty fast. She did an amazing job with updates and overall my husband an I couldn’t be any happier with her service. I highly recommend her to anyone who is trying to find a reliable, trustworthy, caring, and loving sitter for your pets! <3”
