Pet Sitting in Fort Belvoir

“Marcela was wonderful. We have a very nervous dog and usually takes a few visits before Sadie will warm up to someone, but she warmed right up to Marcela on first visit. She was was on time, sent us pictures with each visit, and was very easy to reach all the time. Loved her! We will definitely be using her again.”

“Michelle was great! Posted notes and pics with every visit. Genuinely loves dogs. Friendly and positive interactions with her for key transfer and going over needs. Has husband as backup so all visits covered on time. Would definitely recommend.”

“Sarah has been a lifesaver for me! She is helping me out with my new kitten while I'm away on travel. Her visits are very thorough and she lets me know my kitten's mood, how much she's eating, drinking, and info about her litter box situation too. She includes pictures of my pet that put my mind at ease knowing she is well-cared for and happy! I also plan to use Sarah for walking my dog when I need the help as well. She is respectful, friendly, and easy-going. Thank you for your help, Sarah!”

About: I’ve taken care of many types of dogs, breed, age, and attitude wise. I’ve been considered very reliable and efficient with the way I work with dogs. I have 3 of my own and I treat any other dog as if they were my own. This profile is for my 15 year old daughter, monitored by her parents. I recently moved from Fort Knox, Kentucky, relocated Fort Belvoir. This are a dual military family. My daughter is a high school student. During the summer she has full availability for pet sitting, walks, and drop ins throughout the day. During the school year she is available after school hours (after 3:30). She can also provide morning pr evening care depending on the booking. When caring for pets in a clients home, I follow the routine instructions given by the owner. I make sure pets have all they need and all the affection they need. I keep the home clean, respect the space, and send regular updates to the owners so the know everything is going good.

“Reagan was an excellent and caring sitter who paid great attention to Dutchess and made sure she was comfortable with a stranger in the house. Will absolutely look to book her again!”

About: ***I am independently insured through PetCare for greater peace of mind while you’re away*** I've recently gone through a career switch from caring for humans (I was a registered nurse) to caring for animals last year. However, I have loved and cared for several personal and friend’s pets, to include cats, dogs, guinea pigs, birds, and reptiles, throughout my entire life. I hold a strong passion for advocating and caring for all beings with empathy, patience, and understanding. Since my career switch, I have experienced pets who need extra attention due to daily medications, reactivity, older age, anxiety, and helping to instill training (I am not a certified trainer) the clients are already teaching their pet(s) during my walks and/or pet sits. Dog walking and pet sitting is my full time job now. Whether you need a midday walk or need someone to care for your pets while you escape on vacation, I’m available for either service throughout the week, weekend, and some holidays. While I do not provide care in my home, I do travel to your pets while you’re away. My approach to caring for animals is with a lot of patience and respect. I’m happy to take it slow for each animal that may be a bit timid at first. I have a lot of experience personally and professionally working with animals who are timid, reactive, etc. For new clients, I like to have a meet/greet to go over care instructions before the pet sitting/walking dates. This gives us the opportunity to ask questions and discuss further what you can expect while you’re away. My goal is to provide care the way your pet is used to. I send daily updates/pictures/video to give you the reassurance that your pet is being loved on just the way you would if you were there.

“Wa so stressed about leaving my fur boy with someone until we met Rachel. She was so nice and JT took to her right away. She is an absolute blessing and I am so grateful that we were able to find her. Will be using her on a regular basis for sure. Thank you so much Rachel!!! You are the best!!”

“If you asked me to describe the perfect Rover experience it would be working with Ana. She was friendly and prompt with communication, provided great updates, followed instructions, and reached out when she had a question. Fantastic sitter.”

“Stephanie was phenomenal with my 2 cats, who can both be a little sassy in their own ways. She found all their favourites and had them waiting at the door for her visits within a couple of days. Would 100% recommend Stephanie to take care of your furry friends!”

Rachel M.

“Olivia is wonderful! She took such excellent care of my sweet kitties while we were away. She sent me regular updates with photos of both them and their cleaned litter boxes. I will absolutely be reaching out to Olivia again in the future!”

About: I had my first dog when I was 8 and ever since then I have always loved dogs and have never been without a dog until this year. All dogs make me extremely happy and I love to play with them. I’m very energetic and love to go for runs or do different activities with dogs. I also don’t have a problem with any other animals but I am just used to dealing with dogs. I have had a miniature schnauzer, pit bull, and a lab. My hours are pretty flexible but I do prefer the morning because I am a early bird. The only times I won’t be available are after 8 Expect for Wednesdays unless I’m house sitting depending on how long that will be. If you would like any more information please message me

“Lisa has been nothing but amazing! She has made being a first time puppy owner a thousand times easier. She provides a detailed update each day/visit that allows you to understand your dog’s needs more and to know how your dog is through out the day. Lisa is the best and recommend her to everyone!”

“Miranda was able to accommodate me last minute before a short out of town trip for a few days and was available for a virtual meeting and she followed instructions I sent her through a Google Docs very well. She was so attentive, loving and patient with both my fur babies Suki and Lilith and I could tell from the Rover card pictures that my kitties felt so comfortable with her! She went above and beyond to give them treats and playtime and she was overall amazing. She was very communicative and flexible. I would book with her again and I highly recommend her for anyone looking for someone to drop in on their cats while they’re away! Thank you tons, Miranda 🥰🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛”

“Veronica was great with our dog Ares. She responded quickly to all messages and sent me pictures with each visit. She was very accommodating with my last minute changes I had to make to the drop-in schedule and is very personable.”

“Emily was amazing with my cat. My cat was comfortable with her from day one - which made me feel much more secure knowing that he was in good hands while I was away on my trip.”

About: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for over 13 years. I have experience caring for my own dogs as well as dogs belonging to friends, family, and others who have trusted me with their pets. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, energy level, and needs, and I approach each one with patience, consistency, and kindness. My experience includes daily walks, exercise, mental stimulation, reinforcing positive behaviors, and providing calm, reliable care, especially for dogs who need extra reassurance or structure. I have firsthand experience working with shelter dogs and understand how important trust and routine are in helping dogs feel safe and confident. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to make each walk or visit a positive, stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet sitting and dog walking fit perfectly into my current schedule. We recently moved to the area, and at this time I am not pursuing full-time employment so I can settle in, explore the community, and maintain a flexible daily routine. All of my children are in school, and my own dogs are on a consistent schedule with early morning walks and daily exercise starting around 5:00 AM. This routine allows me to be fully present for my pets first thing in the morning while freeing up a large portion of my day for additional walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. Because of this structure, I am reliable, flexible, and able to accommodate daytime and early afternoon care with consistency and attention. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, and my schedule allows me to provide unhurried, attentive care to every animal I work with. I am a very meticulous person and strongly believe that a clean environment is a safe environment. Whether I am caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, I prioritize cleanliness, organization, and consistency to ensure pets feel secure and well cared for. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, exercise, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I keep living spaces tidy, food and water areas clean, and ensure toys, leashes, and resting areas are safe and well-maintained. I also pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and comfort level, adjusting care as needed to reduce stress and promote well-being. My goal is to provide calm, dependable care in a clean, structured environment so pets feel safe, relaxed, and at home, no matter where they are.

“Hieu and Anna were amazing! They took great care of my 2 energetic Australian Shepherds while I was out of town. They were wonderful at communicating and gave me updates. My one dog is scared of the elevator and they were able to get him to go on. My doggies are always excited to see them and I will definitely request their help in the future!”

“Katelyn is so wonderful and reliable. She provides excellent, gentle care to our 17 year old cat, and we enjoy receiving pics and updates from her visits.”
