House Sitting Gordondale

“Linda was a great find for us. We moved back to the area about a year ago and needed someone to stay with our “kids”. We’ve used Rover in the past so we turned to them again. After a lot of searching for someone that could take care of our elder pups needs we landed on Linda. It was short notice for her (I procrastinated) but she made it work. Linda stopped by the house for a visit with everyone and the kids approved. We were very pleased with Linda’s approach and style. She took care of our home and babies like they were her own. We highly recommend Linda. She’s a keeper. We will be booking her again.”

“We were visiting from out of town and Lauren was super flexible and communicative. She made it so easy for us and was very attentive to our dog. 100% recommend!”

“Kathy G was awesome with our pups while we were gone. She sent updates, pictures and more every day which really kept us from worrying about our fur babies! She also left us a clean house and kept up on the dog items that needed washing. We will definitely call Kathy G again!”

“Heather did a wonderful job in taking care of my Golden Retriever . Great communication while she was watching him. Photos, videos, notes, etc.”

“This was our first time utilizing ROVER sitters, and I am so glad we were led to Lindsey. From our initial meet and greet, our three-year-old playful and energetic Shepherd Theo loved her.She asked very thoughtful questions about his routine, and we could tell she genuinely loves animals. She quickly put our minds at ease as we had to go out of town for the day. I highly recommend Lindsay and we will definitely be reaching out to her again.🤗”

About: I have a love and understanding for all animals! I have trained my own and have learned so much through them. I have a lot of experience with dogs with behavioral issues. I am a college student with a lot of free time. My evenings are free and I have a lot of gaps during the day! I would love to get out on walks with dogs in my gaps. I have my own dog to keep yours company if that is something you would like. If not, he can stay with his other mama when your pup is over! Dogs will get full exercise and enrichment when staying with me. We will be in a fenced in yard running around and go on serval walks throughout the day.

“Day was truly a blessing! She took such great care of my senior dog Zeus and my home while I was away. I appreciated her communication and all of the photos she sent. So grateful I found her!”

“Kristina did a fabulous job in taking care of our special girl as well as looking after our home. We highly recommend her and will definitely work with her again!”

About: Hi, I'm restarting my animal care business. I want to ensure a stimulated experience with a swift pace and consistent disciplined walking style of what I like to refer to as "nose to toes," where the dogs stay no further than my toe, to my sides, or behind me. I also have experience with aggressive dog behavior, so if a single walk is necessary, I can do that. I have been in the animal care business for as long as I can remember, and I know Fairlington very well since I grew up here. I now live in Harper's Ferry in West Virginia. I will be able to track my walks with a phone app that will track your dog's walking pace, distance traveled, and the route we take. I usually do pack walks of 3-5 dogs depending on size, but I can do singles if needed. I'm also able to cat-sit/dog-sit and care for exotics and birds (no insects). I'm flexible because I have my own cleaning/organizing/declutter business. I wake up however early dog might need be let out or pet given meds, and give at least 3 long 30min-hour walks depending on the energy level and few let outs throught the day if needed for young pups or older if bladder is sensitive. Plenty of loves and can work on training or stimulated play time with toys and puzzles. I will be professional and not have any guests over ever, and always keep doors locked when not there and if plants need care I can help with watering. I have 4 animals myself so it's pretty automatic to just add another pet cuz I've cared for multiple animals at a time or drop in visits when needed throughout my day. Whatever the fmaily requests for schedule when to feed, medicate(if needed), amount of walks and play time needed to make sure they're healthy and stimulated. Whenever they're ready for bed, crate if needed requested by parents, and make sure they go outside(dogs) to ensure no accidents throughout the night. I give them just as much love and attention and play as my own. And feed round same schedule unless instructed otherwise. Giving exercise and play time when needed. And kept to routine of crating if owners instruct.

About: Hi my name is Jose Alfredo and I can be very laid back and socially outgoing with a fun and friendly personality! I love being around friendly pets and I was a previous cat owner for 4 years. I also used to share my place with my close friend and his dog of 3 years who I helped care for many times. I have other family members and friends who have pets as well and I have been around them long enough to love and know me. I have spent a lot of time around other people's dogs most of my life and have great experience with both dogs and cats. Being around other people's pets over time has given me the opportunity to know and understand different dog and cat personalities and each ones individually unique needs and traits. Book me and I will walk your dog, feed it, play with it and make sure it has gone to the bathroom. I will tend to your cats' need as well and make sure it's fed, hydrated and help maintain it's litterbox's cleaniliness and given lots of attention! I am also willing to help with small house chores like taking out the trash, bringing the bin to the front, watering your plants or any other simple house duties for no extra charge! At the moment I will go to you to take care of your pet in your home so you don't have to worry about putting your pet in a new environment it's not used to. I will make sure everything in your home is as tidy as before I even arrived. As long as you can provide me with the proper details and instructions about your pets' needs, where things are and how to get in and out of the house, then I promise you everything will be done as requested. As a way of building trust, we will arrange to do a proper meet and greet at your home or a public place like the park. This is so me and your pet can get familiar with each other, earn trust between owner and sitter, and have comfortability and assurance that your pet and home will be in good hands. Thank you for choosing me to care for your pets! I am currently flexible with availability for most days of the week as I do not have any other full time job at the moment. However, I currently am a student studying full-time and sometimes get involved in campus events, extracurriculars, and other student organizations. So Tuesdays and Thursdays I'm typically more busy with classes. But as long as the requested time works around my schedule and classes then we can make it work and I can be available whenever I am not spending time on campus. I do prefer to be notified at least 3 days in advance for requests but I am also willing to take up to same day bookings as long as I am completely free for that day, but it is not guaranteed. But please do try to reach out and book with me in advance at first if possible. I also prefer to schedule a meet and greet prior to accepting booking requests for new first time clients. But I will be more than happy to work with you so I can make a new furry friend if we are a great fit for each other! I used to play with my roommate's dog every day and feed him or take him outside to potty when the roommate was not around or unable to. I play ball with his dog, tug of war and give him belly rubs. His dog is also very attached to me as I am to him. I also was a cat owner for 4 years who I took care of every day from feeding him to ckesning his litterbox and playing with him. I hope to form this same kind of relationship with your pet!

“Alexsys was wonderful with Bailey! When I had a recent family emergency with my daughter going into labor three weeks early, I had town quickly. Alexsys jumped right in and took great care of Bailey, sending pictures and updates that really helped me feel comfortable leaving my furbaby. I would definitely book her again!”

About: Overnight stays, daily visits, & animal boarding. Dogs, cats, bearded dragons, turkeys, farm animals. I’ve taken care of them all. I’m an adventurous and helpful pet sitter, willing to love your animal while you’re away. I work remotely with a very flexible schedule to give your pets the attention they deserve.

“Megan did outstanding her first time with Crosby and Luna! We were in contact daily and she made sure that everything went smoothly which is always a concern for me since Luna is a rescue still figuring things out. Communication leading up to the stay was above and beyond and my house was perfectly the way I left it and she even went the extra mile to wash and dry the towels and sheets. A girl after my own heart!!!! I would. highly recommend!!!!!”

“We appreciated that she spent time with our dogs and kept them company while we were away. It was clear they were being given attention, which meant a lot to us. However, there were a couple of concerns that are important to mention. We have cameras in our home, which she was made aware of in advance. While most were turned off, we left the front door and one camera in the dogs’ area on. At one point, one of our dogs had an accident in that room. The footage showed that it was seen multiple times but not addressed. I only became aware of the situation after receiving several notifications and had to reach out to ask that it be cleaned. This made me feel that it may have been left unattended otherwise. Additionally, we had left our house key in a lockbox on the door. While the key was placed back inside, the combination was not reset. Since we were out of town, this felt like a safety concern, as it left our home more accessible than we were comfortable with. That said, I’m still giving her 4 stars. I know she’s just starting out, and these are all things that can easily be improved with a bit more experience. Overall, we’re grateful for the care she showed our dogs and appreciate her help.”
