Doggy Day Care Fairlington-Shirlington

“Adriana has been an amazing sitter for Rosie! Rosie is always excited to see her, which gives me peace of mind whenever I leave her in Adriana’s care. She is responsible, reliable, and incredibly accommodating, and I always know Rosie will be well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”

About: I had two dogs growing up (Snowball and Mocha) and in recent years, have dog sat for friends, friends, and for Rover clients. It's rewarding and super fun for me! I enjoy the long walks in my neighborhood (I live in an awesome neighborhood for that) and lots of cuddles/belly rubs with the dogs I am sitting! I work from home most of the week and have plenty of time during the day for neighborhood strolls/walks with my rover pups. I love going for walks to take a break so would take the dog out at least 3 or 4 times a day with me. My husband and I live in a 2 bedroom/2 floor condo with a balcony. The dog would have access to the first floor. We have hard wood floors, a ton of really great light and are on the 3rd floor. There are no elevators in this building. We have a ton of neighbors who have dogs, an elementary school near by with a nice track/green space, and lots of side walk space for walks.

“Donna was wonderful, as always! She's warm, caring, and great with our dog. We also appreciated her clear communication and the regular updates she sent about how our dog was doing!”

“Mochi had the best time at camp with her auntie and uncle and friend Ricky 🐾. Great communication and nice hosts. Thank you! Mochi can’t wait for her next camp day!”

“Madina was great! She was able to watch my dog last minute/same day. She was prompt with her communications and took wonderful care of Nova for the day. We would definitely book her again.”

“Cynthia took fantastic care of Woody during his daycare visit. She took the time to learn his likes/dislikes and quirks so that he felt comfortable in a new place. And she managed to tire him out with fun and adventures with her and the other dogs.”

Meredith W.

“Leila was absolutely lovely! She took so many pictures and videos of my little Hadley and gave him lots of love, attention and walks. I would book her again.”

Danielle B.

“Corina was great! Really responsive and great to work with. She took great care of our dog Nina. Sent us updates and pictures throughout the day. She took Nina out on several walks during the day and even worked on training her new tricks. My dog just loved her and I can tell she was well taken care of.”

Abiel O.

“I always get nervous leaving my 1 year old pup with someone new, but Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful and exceeded all my expectations. I could tell immediately that she’s a dog person, and she sent me tons of updates throughout the day. I’m so grateful for her and will be booking again next time I need daycare!”

Ella C.

“I feel like my dog is in very good hands with Yulia. She really cares about the dogs in her care and also the owners. I loved getting pictures to see how my dog, Trooper, was getting along with the other dogs and having fun.”

Diana C.

“Jennifer was absolutely amazing! She’s incredibly knowledgeable about dogs and it’s so clear how much she cares for them. She made my own dog feel right at home! I really appreciated all her communication and her flexibility on my pick up time. Will 100% book again. Thank you Jennifer!”

About: What sets me apart is my extensive experience, flexibility, and genuine love for dogs, which even inspired two friends to become dog lovers and get pets of their own! I work from home, allowing me to provide consistent attention and customized care. With a fenced dog park at my place and easy access to Shirlington Dog Park, I ensure every dog has a safe and engaging environment for play and exercise. Over the years, I’ve been a reliable and loving dog sitter for many friends, caring for their pets from a few hours to week-long stays. I’ve had the pleasure of caring for a variety of dogs, including my black and tan coonhound, an elderly greyhound, an energetic golden retriever, Pitbull Boxer and a big, bold Shar Pei-Rottweiler mix. My approach is shaped by my experience rehabilitating a once out-of-control rescue dog, who, with patience and love, became a wonderful companion and backpacking partner. Whether it’s managing high-energy dogs or providing a gentle hand to senior pets, I create a nurturing and fun environment where every dog feels truly at home. As an entrepreneur who works from home, I have the flexibility to build my schedule around pet care, ensuring your dog’s needs are a top priority. I’m highly responsible and reliable, with the ability to give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. My home includes a fenced dog park, providing a secure area for playtime, and I also live near Shirlington Dog Park, perfect for extended outings and socialization with other dogs. I enjoy hiking and being active for dogs that might need more exercise. I’m dedicated to creating a safe, enjoyable environment, so you can feel confident that your dog is in great hands while you’re away. In my home, I ensure that each pet feels comfortable, safe, and engaged. I provide plenty of playtime and exercise, including visits to the fenced dog park at my place and longer outings at nearby Shirlington Dog Park. I follow each pet’s specific routine as closely as possible, from feeding schedules to any special care instructions. When caring for pets in clients’ homes, I prioritize maintaining the pet’s usual environment and routine, helping them feel secure while their owners are away. I’m attentive to every detail, keeping the space clean, following any house rules, and providing consistent updates so owners can feel reassured. My goal in both settings is to offer a reliable, caring experience that pets enjoy and owners trust.

“We met Linda, Leo and Fred and instantly felt at ease! She was so warm, kind and genuine. Leo and Fred were both welcoming and friendly towards Pinot. They played so well and Pinot was well taken care of. Thank you!!!”

“Jennifer was so nice and great at communicating. I knew Gryffin was in great hands when she brought her dog out to meet us and he was all smiles and tail wags.”

Annette S.

“Awesome first day with Jhonny. He was very responsive and accommodating.”

Valerie G.

“Ester and her husband were incredibly kind and reassuring when I left my little Rocco with them. They asked many important questions about his routine, toys, and personality which I greatly appreciated. When I came to pick up Rocco he seems content and relaxed and even continued his usual 17 hour slumber at home. I will definitely reach out in the near future!”

About: My first two rescues were Rottweilers my third and only child is the child that my mom blessed me with. She is a needy, loving girl but high energy so I’ve dealt with everything from couch potato to high Strong lovely I work from home and my height energy baby is used to go out multiple times a day and she is great with any dog she needs. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I am very active walking them in the neighborhood and we will always make time to go out. We are sidekick and we go walking together, dog parks together, but also she has not ever met a dog that she doesn’t love. Even those in the neighborhood that don’t get along with others love her. I do not have kids, but my nieces who are 5 to 9 or around her often so she is great with them, but I also understand those that don’t want their dog around kids so I will not bring them around them if they are uncomfortable.

“Kimberly sent us so many pictures of Molly playing with her pup Holly all day long. She was flexible in her pick up times and Molly came back home exhausted.”

“Sputnik had a great time with Shane. When we left him at Shane’s place he was exited to arrive and when we picked him up he was happy and tired. Really good experience !”
