House Sitting Fairfax

“I can't say enough great things about Avery! I left my dog Denver in their care and felt completely at ease the entire time. Avery sent frequent updates and photos throughout the stay, which meant so much. It was clear Denver was happy, comfortable, and well looked after. Their communication was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Any question I had was answered quickly, and they were proactive about checking in, which I really appreciated. Most importantly, Avery treated Denver like their very own dog. You could tell the love and attention they gave was genuine. If you're looking for someone you can truly trust with your fur baby, look no further. Avery is the real deal. Highly recommend!”

“Angela was great! She was very patient & gentle with my anxious dog during the meet & greet, so I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her! They seemed to get along great during the stay. Angela was good about sending pics & communicating. Would hire again!!”

About: Hi, My most recent experience has been long term care for friends and families dogs. I offer to walk dogs multiple times a day, as well as check in multiple times a day. I also offer personalized behavioral training a recommendations. I have particular experience with behavioral issues like separation anxiety and difficulties walking on a leash and getting overwhelmed with various stimuli. Previously, I fostered large dogs with behavioral issues for the SPCA for 5 years. I have experience with dogs that are reactive, anxiety ridden and once with medical issues. I fostered the dogs until the issues are either managed or resolved and they are ready for adoption. I have experience primarily with large dogs. I am used to long walks and hikes with dogs. I primarily keeps dogs on leash but in the right circumstances I will let them off leash. However, I am very picky. I am open to walking l, check-ins and boarding. I’m in class a few times a month and working 1-2 days a week so I have times of availability to care for your pup. Thank you for considering me, Celine I’m a graduate student with minimal in class time so I have plenty of time to play and cuddle your pup. I love long walks and play time. I enjoy finding engaging activities that keep them mentally stimulated. I would like to get a sense of your pup and aspects of their care that are most important to you. This could be frequency of walking, caring for behavioral issues or simply giving them lots of cuddles. I can be in your hole where your pup is most comfortable or bring them to mine.

“He’s a great young man who is very sensitive to our dog’s needs. We did not stress once. Thanks Joe!!!!!!! We will reach out again very soon.”

“Alexis was amazing and the best pet sitter I’ve ever had! She went above and beyond to make sure my kitties were well taken care of, and they loved her! Can’t recommend Alexis enough!”

“We booked with Octavia again and she was so helpful with caring for our 2 dogs. She also made sure that one of dogs got a medication that he had just started. Octavia is very reliable and a great communicator!”

“Kristen did a fantastic job with our two dogs while we were out of town for 5 days! She was very responsive to communication the entire time. We didn’t return to any accidents or messes we had to clean up which for us is a blessing as one of our dogs tends to have some potty issues when we are gone for an extended period. Usually our dogs are super excited to see us when we return- this time I think they were disappointed to see us and not to see Kristen!! Would definitely rebook ☺️”

About: I am a huge animal lover; I’ve had pets my whole life and know how much a routine matters to them, especially during a stressful time apart from their family. I’ve cared for a diabetic dog, giving insulin shots three times a day for years, and also babysat a diabetic cat — so I’m comfortable with medication schedules and special-needs care. I’m an active person who treats every fur baby like they are my best friend because that’s what they deserve! I have a flexible schedule and work from home Mondays and Fridays, so those days are perfect for midday walks or potty breaks — I can easily fit your pup into my schedule without rushing. On weekends, I’m open to house sitting or home visits, giving your pet consistent, attentive care while you’re away. I don’t board pets at my own home, so all care happens at your house, keeping your pet in their familiar, comfortable environment. During home visits or house sits, I follow your routines closely for feeding, walks, and medication, and I’m experienced with special and elder pet needs. I treat your home and pet with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.

“Sydney was great! We had to book her short notice due to our usual sitter falling through, and she was very quick to communicate and was great with the dogs.”

About: I’ve had cats, dogs, and other pets my whole life, trained my own dog myself, and provide flexible, attentive, loving care for animals of all kinds. I currently work part-time as a lifeguard at a local pool, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to walk, feed, play with, and care for pets throughout the day. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by following their normal routines, giving them attention, exercise, clean spaces, and constant supervision when needed.

“Ishmell was great! We had such peace of mind knowing he was at our house with our pup and appreciated all the text and photo updates we got. I would 100% book with him again!”

Lauren M.

“Mont’e was absolutely amazing! He provided excellent care for my cat and dog while house sitting. I was pretty nervous to leave town and Mont’e was super kind and professional. He updated me regularly, took my dog on walks, and even took her to his family’s Christmas Eve celebration (after asking of course) because I was worried about her having separation anxiety! Mont’e treated my pets as if they were his own and when I came back they were both super calm and relaxed because of the great care provided. Mont’e was also super respectful of my home and left it very neat and tidy! Highly recommend Mont’e for all pet sitting needs, I’ll definitely be asking him to come back!”

“Christina was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond. She house sat for us and took care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats. Unfortunately, one of our dogs needed emergency care while we were away. We are so grateful for her for taking our pup to the emergency vet and staying with her until 4:00am! She administered meds and was able to care for her until we came home. Even with all of that excitement, all of our animals were content when we got home!”

Karen C.

“Madi is amazing!! She was on time and followed my instructions carefully, and sent cute pictures while I was away. I would trust her to watch my pets any time!!”

Courtney C.

“Joe did a great job. Got various updates on our baby. Chonk seemed to really like him. Also he left our home super clean. I recommend him and will be rebooking.”

Kortney C.

“Riya was amazing! She stayed with Chewie and Chase even though it was short-notice, after another sitter couldn't get dates off from work! Chewie loved playing with her dog Archie, and I greatly appreciated that Riya gave updates and pictures throughout my four nights away. She went above and beyond checking Chewie for ticks after a couple were spotted on her dog. I couldn't be happier with her care for my fur babies while I was away.”

Kelley C.

“Ebony was so kind and helpful throughout my dog baby's visit. She sent me tons of photos and updates while she had my baby. Baby(my dog) was well taken care of threwout her stay with Ebony. I'm so grateful for her, as she took my booking last minute since I had an unexpected family emergency come up. I will definitely use Ebony again in the future seeing as how amazingly she took care of what I consider a family member to me.”

“Did a wonderful job!”

“Elizabeth is nothing short of an angel. Was patient, loving and kind to my very cranky dog. By the end of her stay she was petting him- unheard of!!! Liz is wonderful!”
