Cat Sitting in Fort Hunt

“I just got stuck in the whole dallas air traffic radar fiasco and Lori was great about taking on my cats last minute and late Friday night. Really appreciate how reliable she is and what great care she takes of my cats! She gives great updates and takes great pictures, even of my shyest cat.”

“Carly has been so wonderful and reliable for our dog, Phoebe! She has provided weekly drop ins for a couple of months and one long overnight stay so far, which she extended a night on short notice for us. She provides us with consistent updates and communication and Phoebe is always a happy girl after each of her visits. We highly recommend Carly, she’s been one of our best Petsitters to date.”

“Ian was wonderful with my two cats! They both can be more than a little skittish, but by the end of the visits, they seemed a lot more chill!”

Fred S.

“Our cat Ella loved Elyse right away which doesn't always happen with new people. Elyse was very communicative , flexible, and so great to work with. She provided great updates while we were away which was really appreciated. Wouldn't hesitate to book Elyse again!”

About: I’ve had and loved pets my entire life! (I was convinced I was going to be a vet until I realized I would very likely sob every time a pet got sick.) From my black lab, Raven, to my cats Lily and Langston, to now, my long-haired chihuahua, Midge, animals are just a part of the day-to-day! Since age 12, I’ve been petsitting for friends, family, and neighbors (including overnight stays) and cared for dogs who are super energetic, playful, and independent to dogs who experience some anxiety and might need a bit more attention❤️! I also have experience caring for a bit older doggos. My black lab, Raven, lived to 16 and as her mobility and needs changed, I changed with her and it really taught me to be very attentive, gentle, and adaptive to a pets needs. I’m comfortable and experienced with walking, feeding, brushing, playtime, litter boxes, and loving and attention when pets want or need it❤️! So whether your pet is super energetic and playful or just wants a calm, reassuring companion, I’m happy to match their vibe and energy and make them feel loved and at home☺️🐾! I’m a rising junior at Virginia Tech and home for the summer, working part-time as a server in the Fort Hunt/Hybla Valley area. I have a super flexible schedule and lots of free time to spend with your pets, so I’m available for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, or whatever else your pet might need😊! Mainly, I care for pets in the comfort of their own home with walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays! I make sure to stick to their routine, make sure they get plenty of playtime, attention, and exercise (or just hang out if that’s more their style!) I don’t usually host pets in my home, but I’m super flexible and want to make sure your pet feels happy and loved, and I’ll always make sure to send updates and pics📸🫶!

“We really enjoyed our meet and greet with Matt. He was great with both my dogs and his background and understanding of dog behavior and dog training is very reassuring with my very anxious puppers!”

About: I've had dogs all my life and currently have a 10 month old bernadoodle, 2 cats, and 2 little humans. I'm thoughtful and will treat your best friend with love. Let me help you fetch the best in pet care - reliable, trustworthy, and always tail-wagging approved! I'm available for drop-ins through the week and on the weekends. I'm also available to provide long or shorts walks through the week and on the weekend. I will make sure that pets have access to food and water at all times. I will also ensure that they receive attention and some play time.

“Andrea was available on short notice and didn’t have a minimum visit number, she came at the time she promised and did all of the things I asked. I would definitely use her again!”

Amanda

“Rachel was wonderful. I have two cats, one who is older and requires medication. It was nice to have the peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands while we were away. Highly recommend!”

Kristen E.

“We have a nine year old dog with anxiety. It takes several visits so she will remember someone one and warm up to them. Zoe has been amazing. She is always on time. She is patient and gentle. She was able to build trust with our dog so that I can now leave for a long afternoon and not worry.”

Carol Z.

“Lenny is absolutely amazing! We just moved from overseas and I was worried my dogchild (he’s a senior) was going to have a problem bonding with a new sitter because he adored his last sitter. It’s safe to say he adores Lenny already and that’s such a relief. Lenny is such a great communicator and I love all the pictures taken daily. I couldn’t have picked a better person.”

Edna R.

“Honestly the 2 nicest people you could ever ask to watch your cats. They were great with giving my cats their meds. I came home knowing they had everything taken care of at my house. They even picked up my mail.”

Jennifer C.

“Lined is amazing, she takes sub great care of my baby while I’m gone!! She has great communication and noticed when my dog had a slight limp in his back leg! She’s always on time and incredibly kind:)”

April B.

“Jennifer was great with my cat, Ted! I appreciate her updates and that she came by before the service to grab the keys. Would book her again, and highly recommend her!!”

About: I have owned pets with my family since I was a baby, and I have been volunteering with animal rescues since the age of 14! (to care for and clean up after cats/dogs.) I also own 14 fish tanks, and 2 beautiful kitties. All very well loved animals. I am currently working part time job during school. I am a college student but only have classes about 3 days a week. I am able to work best after school/ work hours, or on off days! Contact me and we can work something out:) I am an experienced pet owner, and I am happy to provide all the basics like, cleaning cages/litter boxes, food/water bowls, refreshing water and feeding, taking on walks, and playing with the your pet, and of COURSE providing lots of love and attention😸!

“Perfect. Nothing could have gone better. Professional and caring.”

About: Hi, I'm Rachel! I grew up in Alexandria, Virginia but recently moved back after living in the UK for 5 years! While moving back, I did bring my 4 year old Basset Hound/Labrador mix - Bruce - with me! I grew up around dogs, and have never been without one. Personally, I wouldn't know a life without a dog or a cat. Life is too quiet. This is why I began to dally in pet care, because I know just how important a pet is, and they deserve company, care, love and play at all times. I currently work part-time at a small store, but am also using my free time to write my first book! I just moved back to the Alexandria area with my own dog, and love learning about new walking routes. In my home, pets are allowed on the furniture and spoiled rotten. I have a basket of toys that is always open, and have a variety of different treats or different dietary needs.

“Claire was great for Maggie. Dependable, was available on short notice and worked well with Maggie making her comfortable up front. So easy to work with and accommodating.”

“Between me, my boyfriend, and some family, we have only needed to hire a dog sitter once or twice for my two year old 80lb pitbull pup. He’s a sweet boy but can be a bit rambunctious (and extra, he hates the rain). We were nervous leaving him for much longer than normal during the daytime last Saturday & Sunday, and with rain in the forecast. Marcia was great: super flexible, competent, professional, and sweet with Wally. She was also good-natured when I didn’t properly leave out cleaning supplies and my dog threw up. We knew he was taken care of and will definitely book again.”

About: I have several years of experiencing caring for dogs and cats. I worked at an animal hospital for 10 years. I am able to administer meds and injections if needed. I feel comfortable with puppies and elderly pets. I take pride in providing great care to pets while their owners are away. I enjoy what I do and I always keep the owners in the loop when looking after their fur babies. I am very flexible and I understanding and I usually find a good accommodation to the pets needs. I treat each pet like if they were my own. I have a very clean home. I do not use kennels unless one is provided to me for a particular reasons. I have a dog of my own and I take great care of him so I’ll take great care of yours! My schedule works around his schedule I have a pet camera to check in on them when I’m not home. I ensure there are no open lids to trash cans or anything that they could get into. All toys I have are safe for dogs
