About: I have owned between 2-4 dogs my entire life, ranging from small-large in size. I currently have a medium and a large size dog, both are friendly and love to play! My yard is unfenced, but I have access to a dog park just behind my home. I can offer any potty times and feeding times needed! I'm currently working gig work and do not have a steady job. I am home most of the time and can give your furry friend all of the attention they desire! I have 2 dogs that are very friendly and love to play! I live very close to a dog park, as in I can see it from my home! My dogs play in the house constantly, as well as going on regular walks and trips to the dog park!
“Anna was great with our puppy! Her teenage grandsons loved having another dog around. A huge backyard and free reign of the deck and inside makes for a laid-back day with the dogs She is so friendly and so easy to work with! We will be rebooking for daycare and overnight boarding in the future!”
About: Allow me to put your mind at ease while on vacation, at work, or if you just need a night away! Your dog will enjoy swimming in our pond, playing fetch, and exploring life in the country as well as playtime with Parker (golden retriever) and Lenny (our new Brittany Spaniel puppy). I work remotely with a flexible schedule. I work fully remote as a therapist and can offer frequent potty breaks, playtime, and attention. Your dog will also enjoy the company of our other dogs, Parker (5 y/o Golden) and Lenny (Brittany Spaniel puppy-fully vaccinated). We have a large, one-story home with plenty of space to roam. We also have a heated attached garage where the dogs can also play during the day as well as ample private (but open) yard space.
About: If you are anything like me I find it stressful to leave my fur babies in someone else's care. I can provide a safe loving space for your fur kids to stay. Between a spacious home and a large privacy fenced shaded backyard for them to explore and play, we hope your pups will find our home a relaxing environment to stay. Our pups are our kids and are treated as so. We have owned dogs all of our adult lives and feel we understand dog behaviors. While you are away we will provide around the clock care in a safe loving environment. Whether your pup is a social baby and would like to lounge next to people or more comfortable in there own space I have the ability to meet those needs. Safety is a priority. With the large fenced in backyard, this gives the pups the ability to go outside and do their business, lounge, explore and play without the fear of run offs. Since I have always had dogs and cats it has been a priority to make sure my home is pet safe.
“I needed a sitter very short notice and Maria was able to help. I would definitely use her again and recommend her to others. She kept me updated and sent me pictures throughout the day. So glad my puppy could spend the day with her and that she had fun!”
“Took great care of our dog. Lots of friends for him to play with and he got lots of snuggles. Good communication on scheduling and sent us lots of pictures and updates to let us know how he was doing. Would recommend.”
About: We had a pup for 16 years and sadly he had to leave this world behind. We have a lot of love to give but don't have the time to commit to another pup full time. We'd love to help you with your pup dog - while on vacation or even some time to walk. We both work from home so your dog will receive extra attention all day! We are able to get walks in a few times a day and enjoy the time outside as well. We also have a teenage girl who loves pets, so when she's home, there another person around to love on your dog. Our house is welcoming, and we welcome any trained dogs to our house. We have three levels and animals are allowed throughout the house. We do not have a fenced in back yard but it is very open for them to run and play.
About: I am home FULL TIME, semi-retired remotely employed, your dogs will NEVER be left alone in my care. I have had 2-3 rescue dogs under my care for the last 20 years. I work remotely, am semi-retired, and in an emergency Fairfax has a local Vet Clinic 4 blocks away. I am always home and your pup will be safely cared for. I have a 5' chain link fenced area with privacy material, less stress on dogs, NEVER left outside. Your pup will go out my kitchen door through attached garage to the fenced area. I can also babygate dogs off separately (carpeted den) so that your pup feels safe. I don't use crates but can accommodate yours. My pups go outside every 2-3 years so pottying is no issue. There is a new Vet in Fairfax, 4 blocks away in an emergency situation. I DO NOT smoke, DO NOT drink, have an extremely well-cared for home and know it is difficult to travel or take day trips especially if you do NOT want to board your pet risking illness or injuries. Boarding facilities can cause kennel cough, terror and dogs feeling abandoned. I occasionally travel and bring my dogs with me on any road trips and know how hard it is to find someone you trust with your pup. I can text or video your pup's stay to ensure you have constant contact with him/her.

Mimi & Nicole A.
Star Sitter
“Mimi is by far our first choice when we need a dog sitter! At this point, I’ve lost count of how many times Mimi has taken care of our two golden retrievers over the years. I have never had to worry while we are gone because she treats our girls as if they were her own. The love and attention they received while in her care is unmatched by anyone else we’ve had watch our pups in the past. Mimi is friendly, reliable, and trustworthy - everything you could ask for in a pet sitter!”
