“Marcos & his brother did an amazing job looking after my dog. Always made sure to give me photos and always responded fast. I can tell my mochi had the time of his life there . 100% recommended to anyone who’s looking to board their fur babies”

About: I've taken care of my own pets and all of my friends and family pets. I've had almost everything from chinchillas, to guinea pigs, to leopard geckos, to a bearded dragon and of course cats and dogs! I dedicate my time to my pet care and dog training so outside of running errands and my dog training appointments, my time is pretty open! I have experience with animal handling from my various jobs involving animals such as being a dog groomer, dog daycare attendant, and also a dog trainer.

“Tashaun was an excellent sitter for our two fur babies. He took pictures frequently to keep us updated which we really appreciated. Our two dogs were among a group of others and were able to socialize when it was time to play with no issues. The dogs had a great fur-cation and I1 would definitely book with him again.”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been my passion. I have hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, pigs, reptiles, birds, and even marine mammals such as dolphins and sea lions. I worked as a veterinary nurse for six years, so I have the knowledge and experience to recognize your pet’s individual needs and provide attentive, compassionate care. Whether your pet is young, senior, energetic, shy, or has special medical needs, you can trust that they will be treated like family while they’re in my care. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment where your pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I currently work remotely and have a flexible schedule to work with you and your pets needs. I can pop in when needed or can be available for pet sitting. Whatever your pet may need I can cater to. Whether it be walks, jogs, feeding, playing, medication administration or even pet sitting, I'm your gal.
“This was our puppy’s first visit to Gretchen, and I can’t adequately express how wonderful she was with him. She made him feel comfortable, and she sent us regular images of him as he relaxed on the couch. Thank you so much, Gretchen, for loving our little guy for the weekend!!”

“Destiny was such a life saver, she was willing to watch our dog (Jade) on short notice. She was very sweet and good with Jade. Also, very professional and sent us pictures & updates regularly. So glad I found her and will be using her again :)”

“Julissa is an amazing dog sitter! She took care of my two dogs and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and healthy. She provided frequent updates with pictures and videos, which was so reassuring while I was away. Julissa bonded with my dogs and provided them with great care. She fed them on time, provided lots of playtime, and walked them frequently. I would highly recommend Julissa to anyone looking for a caring and responsible dog sitter. Thank you, Julissa, for taking such great care of my furry friends! 🐾🐾”

About: I’ve always grown up in a home with at least two animals, so caring for pets has been a natural part of my life. My experience goes beyond just dogs and cats—I’ve also cared for birds and bearded dragons, and I truly love animals of all kinds! I’m happy to meet you and your pet wherever you need the most support. I’m comfortable maintaining established training routines, keeping pet areas clean and organized, and providing extra care for senior or special-needs animals. This includes assisting with medications, helping navigate stairs, providing diaper changes when needed, and giving them the patience, attention, and comfort they deserve. Whether your pet needs a long walk, some playtime and cuddles, help sticking to their routine, or a little extra care and attention, I’m happy to help! I’m a college student with classes primarily in the mornings and typically finish in the mid-afternoon, giving me plenty of flexibility for pet care throughout the week. I’m available full-time on weekends and if needed during the week, I can often stop by in the early mornings, during lunch breaks, or in the afternoons to make sure your pets are happy and on schedule. I understand that every pet has a different routine, so I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits their needs. I’m also committed to communicating my class schedule and availability clearly and promptly, while making sure we’re on the same page about your pet’s care, routines, and expectations. Your pet’s well-being comes first, and I’ll make sure you feel confident knowing they’re in reliable and caring hands! I treat every pet and home with the same care, respect, and attention I would want for my own. Before each booking, I make sure I understand the pet’s routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, training expectations, and any special instructions. I would love to stop by and meet you and your pet prior to the booking if possible, putting faces to names. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything is kept clean and secure. I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. Depending on the service will dictate how much time in your space I will spend. I’m also comfortable caring for senior pets or animals who need extra assistance, including help with stairs, diapers, or medications. I’ll communicate with the owner throughout the booking and am happy to provide updates and photos so they know their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I’ve cared for neighbors’ and coworkers’ dogs on and off for about 7 years. I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for dogs of different ages, including seniors. I currently have a 16 year old Dachshund, so I understand the extra patience and care older dogs may need. I treat every pet like family and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I work 7-4 at Langley Air Force base so depending on how far it is from base I could stop by during lunch but if not I can stop by during the week before 7 and after 3:30 pm. During the weekends and holidays, I should be free whenever to care for your pet! I live in a comfortable apartment with an enclosed patio where pets can get some fresh air and relax. I’m also happy to take them on regular walks and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout their stay. I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home!
“Kim was absolutely amazing with my little dog Fergie! My original sitter became ill and I was scrambling at the last minute to find a sitter. Basically we went to Kim's on Friday night for Fergie and her to meet. Then we had to take Fergie over Saturday night to stay for a week. Kim was extremely flexible and patient with everything having to be accomplished in two days. Kim sent pictures to us while we were on vacation and Fergie looked so relaxed and happy! Kim and her family gave Fergie options for relaxing; including her husband's favorite recliner!”

“Erin and the family were great. I needed a sitter for Lyla on short notice and fortunately they were available. The day I picked Lyla up, she slept most of the rest of the day. I took that as a sign that she had a fun time. I would book them again if I have another occasion.”

“She quickly accommodated me and responded quickly as well. My pup seems to have enjoyed his stay, even though he was a bit shy at first. Definitely will rebook.”

About: I’ve grown up around pets my entire life, especially pit bulls, and I’m very comfortable caring for strong, energetic, and affectionate dogs. I understand the importance of structure, patience, and positive reinforcement, and I treat every dog with the same love and respect I give my own. In addition to dogs, I’ve also cared for two beautiful tuxedo cats, so I’m familiar with meeting cats where they are—whether they’re playful, independent, or just want a quiet companion. Having pets of my own has taught me how important trust, routine, and attention are, and I always make sure animals feel safe, loved, and at home while in my care. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be fully present for the pets in my care. Because I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I can easily adjust my day to match your pet’s routine, whether that includes early morning walks, mid-day check-ins, medication reminders, or extra cuddle time. My flexible work-from-home schedule also allows me to respond quickly to any needs that come up and gives me the freedom to focus on keeping pets comfortable, happy, and well cared for at all times. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with plenty of dogs and a designated dog park, which provides a safe and social environment for pets to get exercise and enrichment. I always supervise playtime at the dog park and only allow interactions that are positive and appropriate for each pet’s temperament and comfort level. In my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-safe environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, and any special instructions provided by owners. Pets are never left unattended outside, and I ensure doors, leashes, and gates are always secure. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and stick to their pet’s established routine to minimize stress. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners feel confident and at ease while they’re away. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet with patience, attentiveness, and the same level of care I would want for my own animals.
“Lilly is truly a caring and compassionate pet sitter who treats animals like members of her own family. Every time Wheeler stays with her, I know he’s in loving hands. Her kids also spend time with the pets, adding to the warm, family-like environment. She frequently sends beautiful photos and keeps me updated on Wheeler’s activities and playtime, which gives me so much peace of mind. Her spacious backyard is perfect for dogs to run and play, and if the weather allows, she even takes them on walks or to the nearby park. She’s incredibly receptive to each pet’s individual needs and always goes the extra mile to help them feel at home. Wheeler absolutely loves staying with Lilly—he gets excited as soon as we pull up to her house, and sometimes doesn’t want to leave because he’s having such a great time! I now try to book monthly stays with her, simply because Wheeler enjoys it so much. I couldn’t ask for a better person to care for him. A true Gryffindor, Lilly responds to every challenge with courage and resolve. She would simply never abandon a quest or choose some other life without caring for pets!”


About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 14, caring for pets both in my own home and in their homes while their families are away. Over the years, I’ve gained plenty of experience making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family members! I work from 8:00 AM–5:30 PM on weekdays, but I have a lengthy break during the day that gives me flexibility for walks, drop-ins, potty breaks, and plenty of attention. My evenings and weekends are also more flexible, allowing me to spend extra time making sure your pet gets the care, companionship, and exercise they need! Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have two friendly dogs of my own who are used to sharing their space and making new friends. I also have an extra set of hands with my fiancé, Tyler, who is just as much of an animal lover as I am! When caring for pets in their own home, I’m happy to follow their usual routines as closely as possible so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment.
“Ryan & Stephanie were great! They responded quickly to my original request and were extremely good at communication. Most importantly, Hazel felt right at home with this awesome family while we’re out of town. 110% recommend!”

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Many sitters in VA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
