“Spencer and Julia kept me posted throughout the weekend, provided several pictures, and spent a lot of quality time with my cat. Really appreciate their help and communication, and would recommend them to others.”

“Taylor came by for a meet & greet with myself and my pup to see if it would be a good fit for a long-term dog sitter while I work long days. My shy and highly anxious pup ran up to Taylor immediately and did not even bark (a rarity for him!). Taylor was so thorough in the questions she had prepared and getting to know my dog’s schedule. I will definitely be using Taylor as a primary sitter for my dog going forward.”

“Aly was so great with our girls! They warmed right with her. She followed all their care instructions and sent adorable photos daily. Can’t wait to book her for our next trip.”

“We needed someone on short notice and Alexandria responded immediately. She was friendly, easy to communicate with, and made the process stress-free. She was great with our 8-month-old rescue, Poppy, who’s still adjusting and can be reactive on leash. Alexandria was patient and understanding, handling Poppy thoughtfully. We loved the photos and report card after each visit and would definitely book Alexandria again—Poppy would be happy to see her too!”

“Tara was so sweet and took excellent care of my girl! Penny is a little nervous with new people coming in so it was so wonderful that Tara took the time to warm her up to the idea, first time customer but not last!”
“Lisa took excellent care of our 4 cats and followed our instructions perfectly. It’s clear from the photos that she got them each to warm up to her quickly and spent quality time with them. Definitely recommend!”

About: I have taken classes in dog behaviors and how they act when they might need a particular action done. I have a NAPPS certification, which is National Association of Professional Pet Sitters that is earned for all small animals, both including dogs and cats. I have had my own very young puppy, so I know how to handle and train them in a gentle manner that they will respond to. I have tons of experience in senior dogs and cats, so I am patient to more slow animals or paying attention to them more and making sure they have what they need. I have an extremely open schedule and can stay over for longer periods of time than most people. I am free almost every single day for hours on end, so finding when I can come over is no trouble. I’m easy to schedule if I need to house sit, and am extremely responsible and willing to stay overnight when needed. I love taking care of animals in their own homes, knowing they’ll feel the most comfortable surrounded by their familiar surroundings. The only thing I care about is that your furry companions are safe and cared for in a way that they don’t feel out of place or missing the love they got before you left them in my care.
“Thank you for everything! You’ve been so great with Rosie and I appreciate your pictures, videos, and detailed summary of the visit. I would definitely have you back.”

“As always, Jen took great care of our Dash! She does a wonderful job and is incredibly thoughtful. She also took great pet photos and left detailed notes each day. Highly recommend Jen!”

“Dominique helped me a lot by caring for my dog while I was away. He was punctual and always provided updates. Will definitely be my go to dog sitter!”

“Henry was great! One of our cats is super friendly and took to Henry immediately, enjoying lots of playtime with him. Our other kitty is much more shy, but Henry was patient with him, and he eventually warmed up to him as well. Both of our cats were well cared for, and we felt confident they were in good hands. We would definitely hire Henry again!”

“Daniel was responsive, professional, and great with our dog who can be somewhat shy. He braved the triple digit temperatures to ensure she was getting out for bathroom breaks. Highly recommend!”

“Extremely well thought out care provided to my pets! Went out of her way to meet me and the cats before the visit and took extra care of each aspect of my pets’ needs. Very kind sitter and will be checking back in :)”

“Juliana took on the strange task of caring for my bird. She made sure Mango had fresh food and water every day and sent lots of photos. I’d definitely use her again.”

“I chose Aimee based on her reviews: I was nervous about leaving my three senior cats (one is special needs) for a few days and told Aimee. She helped relieve my anxiety by sending me her detailed notes and photos from each visit. I am so pleased with Aimee’s excellent care of my cats.”

“Paul was responsive and incredibly communicative. I needed to take a last-minute international trip. Within a few hours, we were able to schedule a time for Paul to take care of Clementine. I am definitely using his services again the next time I have to travel.”

About: I have a Chihuahua Yorkie mix and a Schnauzer mix so I am very familiar with high energy dogs and I will give your dog the attention they need! I really enjoy training with dogs and can reinforce or begin any training that you would like me to! I have experience training dog agility, nose work, fun attention games, and many different positive reinforcement techniques for different dogs. One of our dogs is anxious and reactive, so I am very familiar with avoiding triggers, counter conditioning, and have taken classes on managing reactivity! Our other dog is a tripod, and became so through multiple surgeries while we had him, so I have experience working with dogs with different mobility needs and during surgery as well. I love to spend my nights and weekends cuddled on the couch with dogs or walking around new places, and I'll happily incorporate your dog into whichever they prefer, or both! I have a flexible part time job, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to walking, playing with, or cuddling your dogs just like I would mine! I prefer to take care of your dog in their known environment so that they can stay comfortable. I will do my best to stick as closely to your routines as possible so that they know what to expect. However, we will add some fun, so that they have a great vacation too!
“Amie remains a favorite in our house. Daisy is always so happy when Amie has visited and therefore we are all happy knowing our pup is well cared for. She is a great communicator and incredibly flexible, always putting our pup first.”

“Greta is a very sweet person and Dingo had a great time with her. She has keen attention to details and would really try her best to be flexible and work around with your schedule even it’s last minute. Thank you Greta!”

Guiselle was amazing and made everything seamless! Our kittens are 6 months old, and we booked her to drop in and feed/play/clean litter box throughout the week on our vacation, and it was perfect for us! My physical therapist recommended her, and I am so glad we booked her!

Nani was absolutely wonderful with my precious Mila!! I had to travel for work for two weeks and it was my first time leaving her in someone else’s care for more than a few hours. Needless to say, I was a concerned dog mom. Meeting Nani immediately put my mind at ease! She was friendly, warm, caring and professional. She made me feel so comfortable leaving my pet in her hands. She came to my home to check on and walk my pet everyday. And gave daily updates as well that kept my mind at ease in knowing how Mila was doing while I was gone. When I returned home, Mila was the same happy, sweet and playful girl she was when I left so I know Nani took great care of her. My neighbors even bragged on how great of a job they saw Nani doing with my Mila! I highly recommend her!

Claudia is an excellent, thorough, and patient cat-carer. My cat is a senior who needs several medical modifications to her food, and I felt completely secure while Claudia was dropping in to care for her. Claudia was also extremely sweet and lovingly patient while my shy cat warmed up to her. Claudia also capably handled all my care instructions, and was very responsive and helpful whenever I had questions or just wanted to check in for an extra update on my kitty.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing experience! This was our first time leaving our dogs with someone else, and everything went perfectly. He followed all our instructions, kept us updated, and took excellent care of our dogs. We felt completely comfortable knowing they were in great hands. We will definitely be booking with him again in the future. Highly recommend!

Ashton was the most responsible, timely, flexible, and caring sitter I’ve had in the Northern Virginia / Arlington area. She went above and beyond all of my expectations and I am definitely hiring her again! My pets gave her 5 paws up and they are unbelievably critical. So do the right thing and hire Ashton!
