Dog Boarding in Columbia Heights West, Arlington, VA

“Teddy was the happiest boy when I picked him up from Christine's home. I knew he was well taken care of and got plenty of attention. It was such a relief to find someone I knew I could trust with my furbaby and so much better than keeping him in a boarding facility. I will definitely use Christine again. Thank you so much!”

“Rafael was so attentive and caring for my Baxter! He sent pics and updates without me prompting. Baxter seemed to have really enjoyed his time with Rafael. I was a bit worried at first since this was the first time I used Rover for boarding but Rafael eased my concerns within the first day! We will be booking again with Rafael! Super grateful to have found him!”

“Thy is fantastic! My dog, Ruthie, can be a bit shy to begin with and Thy was very patient and gentle with her. Ruthie adores her! She sends great detailed updates and is extremely communicative.”

“Jennifer was amazing! Throughout the weekend she made sure my dog was getting enough exercise, water, and food! She sent tons of pictures and kept me updated the entire time! She took amazing care of my dog and I would highly recommend her!”

“Felicia and Michelle (and Kai) were the best, they treated Rico like their own and were very understanding when my travel plans were delayed. They were extremely professional and caring, and I would recommend them to everyone I know.”

“Ayana did a great job taking care of my cat. My cat seemed comfortable in her apartment. She kept me updated. I am glad I was able to not worry about him while we were gone on vacation.”

“Wow! Katherine was phenomenal with our 2 year old golden retriever. She was responsive for the booking, read my lengthy background information on Louie, and then was awesome as his caregiver! He loved staying here (his first time was just for the day) as indicated by him bolting up the entryway to see Katherine. She greeted him with treats and so much love. He was a pampered pet with loads of attention and fabulous walks. We appreciated the extra effort with unfortunate rainy weather, never fun with a hairy beast of a golden. She even washed and dried his doggy towels. When the weather became unexpectedly warm, she made sure to bring water on the walks. She gave a great detailed overview of each day, which I so appreciated and seemed to really enjoy her time with him. I feel so lucky and grateful to have found someone reliable that we can trust and that Louie loves so much!”

“This was my first time booking on the app and Sandy was amazing with my Kali! She was very responsive and communicative. I really appreciated her making her home a safe and comfortable place for my dog.”

“Raymond was fantastic with our older dog. Great communication and sent daily photos, which we loved. Our pooch came home happy, heathy and calm. Was obviously well cared for and loved as part of the family. Will book again. Thanks Raymond!”

“Guy took care of our pup so well! He was super easy to communicate with. We appreciated his timely responses and pics! We look forward to using him again up watch our dog.”

“Warda was amazing. Not only the fact that she took care of our Brady at last minute call, but the way she hosted our puppy. Brady had a good connection with Warda since first sight and showed to be enjoying the stay through the daily pictures and videos she shared. Brady felt like being home.”

“My doggy Max was super happy with Jocelin and her family. He looked very at home with them and he was sad when I picked him up. That's everything I want in a sitter. I dont want him to be anxious and sad. I am very happy with Jocelin and I highly recommend her.”

“So thankful for Alanis! Went above and beyond to take care of our pup”

About: I used to have a black lab retriever, that I had for over a decade, she's a relatively big dog, so I'm familiar with caring for and watching larger animals. For the past four years I have been paid to watch and care for other pets other than my own, so I am familiar with watching other people's pets. My black lab was untrained for years, so if your pet happens to not be trained then that is okay because I am completely comfortable with an untrained animal. Since I do have a dog, I would not be able to host cats, but I do not mind watching them at your home. A little bit more about myself, I graduated from Penn State in 2018, with a degree in Political Science, and a minor in History, I also have a masters in Legal Studies from American University. I'm originally from upstate NY and moved to the DMV a little over a year ago. I work remote ask I’m able to give my dog as well as yours, the love and attention they deserve. I make sure to take them out long enough to ensure they receive daily exercise. I’m very on top of watching your dog and keeping a safe environment for all animals. I keep all things that could potentially be harmful out of reach.

“Rakia was awesome! She communicated with us while we were away and sent plenty of photos of our pup. Highly recommend”

“Katelyn is such a kindhearted person to everyone around her - animals included. She had family dogs growing up and when she moved out on her own, she became a dog owner herself. She has had her husky for 8+ years and they are a truly bonded pair. They have moved from PA to CO, back to PA to then VA, and then one more time to PA and back to VA again - just the 2 of them. The thought of ever leaving him behind would never cross her mind. She always makes sure he gets what he needs and treats him like her child. She would do the same for anyone else’s dog that she would be fortunate enough to look after. I would trust her wholeheartedly to be responsible for my dog.”

“Brianna and Her husband have done a fantastic job watching our fur babies. They have sent multiple pictures daily, took them for walks, and played with them. Not to mention their own dog is super friendly and adorable ?. Highly recommend them!”

“Kerry was fabulous. She kept us updated and sent pictures on a regular basis. We could tell by the pictures that our dog was completely comfortable. Our dog, Dora, greeted us enthusiastically when we returned but we noticed that she did follow Kerry into the next room showing us that she bonded beautifully during her stay. That is just what we wanted to see!”

“Alyce was wonderful with my dog Soto. Left my dog with her for a couple days and received lots of photos and videos of Soto having a great time. This was my first time dog boarding with Alyce but will definitely ask for help in the future as I know Soto will be safe and enjoy his time there.”

“Ashley communicated throughout the boarding with photos and it gave me peace of mind to know my dog was in a clean, safe environment where he was being well taken care of. My dog seemed comfortable and happy during the boarding as he played with his toys, ate his food and slept with his feet in the air and belly exposed. Ashley also took him on many long walks along nearby trails and my dog enjoyed the opportunity to go explore new areas. I’d recommend booking with Ashley if you’re looking for a caring and reliable sitter.”
