“Gail, I can't thank you enough for the great and loving care you gave our Nala. This was a long stay and she isn't used to being with anyone besides the family. Getting the photos and videos every day and seeing that she was happy and felt like home with you, made us feel at ease and relaxed. It made our overseas vacation more enjoyable, knowing that she was in such good hands. Nala would definitely want to stay with Gail again.”

About: Hi! I’m Nicole, a lifelong animal lover and professional belly-rub provider. I’ve grown up with cats and dogs and have also cared for bunnies, fish, and birds, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I've volunteered at animal shelters and pet sat for family friends, giving me experience with everything from energetic zoomie enthusiasts to professional couch potatoes. I offer walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and boarding. I live in a pet-friendly community with plenty of dog-friendly walking areas nearby, giving pets lots of opportunities for exercise and outdoor time. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Before caring for your pet, I'd love to learn about their routine, personality, favorite activities, and any special instructions. The more I know, the better I can make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I offer free local pick up within 3 miles! Located in Arlington ,reach out for more details. :) Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Since most of my classes are online, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide frequent check-ins, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention throughout the day.

“McKinley was the best sitter we could’ve had! She was able to accommodate to a last minute request. She sent frequent updates and my pup felt so comfortable in her house with her other pets. 10/10 best sitter in the area!”

“Melanie was amazing! She gave us detailed updates with a photo and said if we wanted more updates she’d gladly send. Our dog loved her family - especially the kids! We hope to bring her back soon!”


“Aisha did a great job with my new rescue dog. I had only had Maggie for a week before I unfortunately had to leave her for the weekend, but Aisha took excellent care of her. We did a meet and greet in advance that was really helpful and made Maggie familiar with Aisha and her home. Aisha sent me a number of pictures and frequent updates. She was also very patient with Maggie even when she had a couple accidents. When I came to pick Maggie up it was clear that she really liked Aisha. I would not hesitate to use her again. I really appreciated her help!”

“Carolyn was a fantastic host for my dog Jenny. Jenny fit right in with her two pups. There were some minor hiccups that she informed me about at pick up, but overall they treated her as one of their own. Carolyn made sure that Jenny was well exercised, taking her on the trails nearby almost every day. She also made sure Jenny took her medication everyday. I would gladly rebook with Carolyn the next time I need someone to watch Jenny!”

“Amazing dog sitter! Nirvana always kept me posted on how my boy Kai was doing, it looked like they had a blast together, and she was very flexible and accommodating on my flight delay back home. Highly recommend.”

“Laurie & Rich were great hosts for my dachshund mix Lily! The sent me regular check ins and pictures of my pup which I greatly appreciate. They communicated fantastically throughout the entire process, and accommodated all of my requests. I could not have asked for a better host! 10/10 would recommend.”

“Our second time booking with Jorge & Alejandra, they are wonderful! Took such great care of our pup, she got more playtime with them than she ever gets at home! Will definitely book with them again.”

“Ollie has the best time with Donna and always comes back so happily tired! And we love all the adorable updates she sends. Ollie is excited to head back to Donna’s next week for more fun!!”

“Danyelle is simply the best! I always know my dog will have the best time, be well taken care of, and receive updates on how everything is going.”

“Camille was really great with my pup (Cersei)! She sent photos and videos throughout the stay and I could really tell that Cersei was absolutely having the best time! Would definitely recommend Camille if you’re looking for quality care and a happy pup when you’re away!”

“Sarah was super professional, extremely responsive, and I know my dog had a great stay in her care. I would 100% go to her again for overnight stays!”

“This was Molly’s second time with Christy and once again, it was great! Christy is communicative and sends pictures and videos. Molly gets weird about food when left at a sitter and Christy was patient with her and kept me updated on her eating progress. Thanks, Christy!!”

“Sam and Tracy are great hosts to Luna - and Luna strongly agrees! Luna is very comfortable with Sam and Tracy in their home, and she enjoys the outdoor activities too. Thanks very much.”

“Catherine & Nikhit took excellent care of Buckley, and I felt completely at ease during my two-week vacation. I received tons of photo and video updates, and it was clear that Buckley was having the best time ever. He looked happy, comfortable, and totally spoiled with attention. I loved every update and could tell he was being treated like part of the family. I would absolutely book with Catherine & Nikhit again in the future!”

“Marta is a true animal lover. She was so sweet with my cat and looked after him like he was her own. She clearly has had experience owning pets herself in the past, and also communicated updates proactively with me throughout my time away. Thanks Marta!”

Cristina was awesome! She came through and was able to take my pup in on very short notice. He got lots of play time and I got regular updates and photos. She even was kind enough to improvise on his diet when he came down with some stomach/digestive issues. She was very responsive and thoughtful throughout. Would definitely recommend and will definitely book again with her if/when the situation arises!

So caring and a good fit for my dog Teddy. The environment was perfect for my senior little dog. The day before boarding, my little guy broke a toe and was put in a soft cast. Inwas prepared to cancel my trip, but Jennifer stepped up and took the injured guy and I knew and was right he was in good hands. Shared photos daily and comments to keep me at ease while I was out of town. Recommend highly!

As rookie dog owners with a newly adopted pup, Nyla and Corey put us at ease during our week+ trip knowing our pup was going to be in good, experienced hands. We received daily updates of our pup who seemed to have a blast playing with new pup-mates. Next time we need support with our dog, we'll be calling Nyla and Corey. They were also quick to respond before and during our booking.
Alyssa was incredible. This was the first time we were leaving our dog Nelli with someone other than family or a very close family friend so we were very nervous. But Alyssa certainly made our nerves disappear. She was extremely good at sending us pictures and updating us every single day. She went above and beyond for our girl and we are extremely grateful. Would 100% book with her again!

Javier is conscientious and is considerate of our dogs' needs. Poppy and Olivia responded positively to Javier immediately. They were relaxed and made themselves at home. Javier is sincerely a dog lover. We are so pleased with the way our dogs were taken care of and will use Javier in the future. We recommend Javier as a dog sitter without reservation. Linda and Mike

Briana was great! She provided regular updates about Ollie’s stay and was so nice adapting to Ollie’s very clingy personality. Briana was also so understanding about Ollie’s anxieties and the situations that make him uncomfortable. Thank you for taking such good care of him!

Dana was great with Murphy! She was super flexible and accommodating, especially since our trip came together last minute. Murphy had a great time, got lots of socialization and love, and came home happy and tired. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in a home environment instead of a kennel. We will definitely book with Dana again!

Tina was wonderful to work with! She was incredibly responsive, flexible, and kept us updated throughout Biscuit’s stay with great communication. We especially appreciated all of the adorable photos she sent—they gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. Tina was a pleasure to work with, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!

Yiting was absolutely amazing. She sent us tons of updates through out Stogie’s stay. She is very knowledgeable about dogs. Our pup is very high energy and is very attached to us, but he had such a great time. He came home tired and well exercised, which is so appreciated after a trip. He had a blast!
