Dog Walking in Douglas Park, Arlington, VA

“Carrie continues to help me out greatly with my dog. She is quick to respond and always leaves photos and a rover card for me to see. Will continue to ask Carrie to care for my dog and highly recommend her.”

“Cherie has been walking our dog three times a week for months now! She is the absolute best! Our dog gets so excited to see her. Cherie is also sure to give him water breaks and even puts a cooling bandana on him during the hot summer days. He even gets his good boy treats post-walk from her. We feel so lucky to be a recurring client of hers!”

“Shannon was the best - super friendly and my pup Atlas immediately trusted and liked her. He was exhausted after the walk! A++”

“I know Emilio to be a great pet lover. He's outdoorsy and has two well-trained and behaved dogs and he takes them with him on his hikes or morning runs.”

“Matt is a terrific guy and a natural with dogs! My large Labrador mix fell in love right away and came back from every walk with Matt happy and well-exercised. If I could give more than five stars, I would! Thanks, Matt, for the great care. We're lucky to find you!”

“Dadiana has a great way of taking care of animals, it's obvious that she loves to play with them and cares deeply about them. It's not just a job for her. You can tell she looks forward to spending time with them. She helped me out with my wife's small dogs that are very energetic, a Chihuahua, short hair mix and a long hair papillon, and she was always very patient with them. Makes you feel easy to know that a fellow pet lover is taking care of the fur babies while you're away.”

“Melissa has been absolutely wonderful, Enzo is so excited to see her every time she either helps out with a walk or boards him overnight for the last year constantly. She is super nice and very flexible. She really makes sure he gets lots of good exercise, pets, play time, and love. Bottom line - I completely trust her and Enzo does too and I recommend her to everyone needing some help.”

“I would recommend Kala to any and all dog lovers. Kala is very thoughtful and is one of the few people I trust to watch my dog. She sends very helpful updates during and after our dog walks, plus Brodie is always excited to see her.”

“Patrick has walked my dog many times and has always done a great job. My dog loves Patrick and always has fun on her walks with him. Patrick is friendly, responsible, dependable, and punctual. Patrick grew up with dogs and is very good with animals. Patrick is a great person and your dog will be in great hands with him!”

“Robert has walked my Greyhound several times and always does a wonderful job. He is very professional and provides regular updates. He seems to truly care for my pet. I will deffinetly continue using him in the future.”

“Thank you for the tpy for Lucy. She loves it!”

“Lucas has petsitted for our cat Gabby several times. What I like about Lucas is his friendly and gentle spirit. I can tell he loves to see Gabby and spend time with her. He’ll even send photos or a quick video if I ask! I highly recommend Lucas also because when he has stayed over night he is a clean person and is respectful of our home. Will definitely be reaching out to him when we need a sitter again!”

“Stephanie had done a wonderful job walking my dog, Mikey! She was very communicative and left great notes and pictures during his walks. He can be energetic, but she really handled his wild side without any problem. I could tell that she has a real love for dogs and felt like she was taking care of Mikey the way she would her own pup.”

“Great communicator and flexible”

About: I have been immersed in the world of pet care since the age of 11, taking care of my childhood dogs and cat. I feel a deep connection to animals and love to spend my time with my current dog, a very sweet Beagle named Butter. I have lots of experience taking care of senior dogs as well - I previously provided special care for my senior Beagle mix, Blue, who lived to the age of 13 and had health challenges that gave me invaluable experience in senior dog care. Raising Butter from a puppy and assisting friends and neighbors with their puppies has honed my expertise in puppy care. My knowledge extends to dog behavioral language, and I am a staunch advocate for positive reinforcement techniques. My profound love for animals underpins my commitment to their well-being. I also have a lot of experience with cats and bunnies! I freelance, so I have an incredibly flexible schedule. I am available during weekdays after 11am for drop-in visits! And occasionally available on the weekends on an ad-hoc basis. The safety and wellbeing of animals is the most important aspect of pet care for me. I work with clients to ensure that I understand the dynamics of their individual spaces for drop-in visits, as it can vary tremendously from dog-to-dog depending on age and behavior.

“Natalie is amazing! She treats my pup like her own and does a great job with him and communicating with me! I trust Natalie and she Theo loves his new BFF!”

About: I’ve been caring for family pets, pets of my own and other animals for most of my life! My boyfriend and I currently have a 2 year old pup and a 10 year old cat. Our dog Clementine is a super high energy rescue, and we’ve had the privilege of training, loving and caring for her for 2 years thus far. She requires a lot of exercise, mental stimulation and attention, so I am very experienced with and comfortable caring for puppies and high energy dogs. I also frequently care for our neighbor’s dog who requires medications at certain times, so I’m comfortable administering medicine and caring for senior dogs or pets with specific needs. Overall, I am a loving, caring and experienced pet caregiver, and I will work with you to meet the specific needs of your pet! i have a hybrid work schedule, so I am in the office 3 days a week and at home 2. When I’m home I have plenty of time during the day for walks and playtime. We also have a large fenced in backyard where pups can run around and play (always supervised!). We have a large fenced in backyard for your pup to run around in! Backyard time is always supervised, and we love to be involved in running around and toy time outside. Our dog Clementine is friendly and playful with small/medium sized dogs, and our cat Mia mostly keeps to herself. I totally understand behavioral quirks, specific needs and preferences of pets, and I’m happy to cater to those of your pet.

“My Pup and I LOVE Lilly, she’s professional, trustworthy kind and truly treats my pup like her own! I work long hours in the city and can always count on Lily whether it’s a scheduled walk or a spontaneous drop in or even a last minute “hey I need to work late can you help me out” ! Thank Lilly for being so great to both Paddy and I!!”

“Felicia and Michelle are the best dog moms. They go above and beyond for Kai to make sure she feels like family. They love animals and treat every dog as their own. I have a small elderly Maltese and they make sure he is always comfortable and well taken care of when he is in their care. They are very respectful, kind and loving. You would not regret having them watch your pup.”

“Janine has been my dog’s primary dog sitter for 2 years. She has come to play with her and walk her for lunch daily for a long time. She also regularly dog sits for me when I’m on vacation. She is so reliable, communicative and cares a lot for my baby. I feel totally comfortable leaving her with Janine for any period. Would HIGHLY recommend her.”
