“Remy looked like he was very comfortable and happy with Andrew and his family! It was great to get some fun photo updates and hear how well Remy did settling in and being well taken care of.”
“Omar and his family took such great care of my Bella while I was away. From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in a warm, welcoming environment. She had a blast playing with the other dogs and soaking up all the attention they gave her. What really stood out was the communication. Omar kept me updated with messages, and pictures which made it so much easier being away from her. I could see she was happy, relaxed, and truly being cared for like one of their own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. Bella came home happy, and that says everything.”
“Karen was amazing with my dog. From the minute we had a meet and great I knew my dog would be safe and happy with her. Taco stayed for 5 days and during that time we received lots of videos and texts. I will definitely use Karen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for doggie day care”
“Highly Recommended! I couldn't be happier with the care Barfie received! Nalleli did an incredible job socializing him and kept me updated with daily photos and videos, which I truly appreciated. It was so clear he was happy, well-exercised, and loved—I'll definitely be booking again!”
“Leanna was absolutely amazing! She took such good care of my pup and sent consistent photos and updates. Houston had the best time with her and I know I’ll be working with her again.”
“Alyse was super friendly, easy to communicate with, sent photos and updates about my pups stay. Her house was clean and orderly. She was very responsive when I reached out and was able to take our 2 dogs last minute when our other sitter cancelled last minute. Highly recommend!!”
“Derek and Cheryl took great care of our aging beagle, Michelle, while we were out of town. It was short notice but they were flexible with their time friendly throughout the process of booking her stay. They provided daily photos and updates on how she was doing and were quick to respond to any questions we had. Michelle was more than happy with Derek and Cheryl’s care and so were we! Would highly recommend!”
“Sujan was amazing boarding Aspen for 3 nights. He came back to us relaxed and happy and he definitely had a great time. He was well cared and we received a lot of pictures. We will definitely be using Sujan again! Thank you so much!!”
“We had a truly wonderful experience entrusting our 4-year-old cat, Mufasa, to Tatiana’s care. She provided thoughtful, attentive care and kept us updated with daily messages, which was incredibly reassuring. Knowing that Mufasa stayed comfortably at home, happily spending time with her beautiful cat Enzo, gave us great peace of mind. We highly recommend Tatiana to anyone looking for a caring and reliable cat sitter!”
“My dog warmed up to Renata right away when we first visited. Renata was great at sending pictures twice a day and communicating promptly every time I sent her a message. My dog seemed to have plenty of walks and playtime. She was happy and relaxed when I picked her up. I would definitely use Renata again.”
“Our dog has the best time going to Jennifer's house when we go out of town for the weekend. As soon as we pull up to her driveway he immediately knows where he is and gets so excited to go inside and play with her dog. You can tell her and her family are so warm with their pets. We feel good leaving our dog there knowing he is in great hands having the best time. Jennifer always is great about providing daily communication and pictures. We would recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pup”
“Michelle took care of our miniature schnauzer while we were on vacation for Spring Break. She took excellent care of him and provided us with daily pictures and updates. We are extremely grateful for the excellent care that she provided and would not hesitate to book her again. Thank you Michelle!”
“My elderly dog had a lovely time! She came home relaxed and not so completely exhausted as she is from an experience at the kennel. I will no longer be using the kennel for my old girl! Thank you Alexis!!!”
“Just like last time, Toffee loved his time with Ninfa. She is very attentive and sweet and Toffee was super excited when we approached her home which just confirms how well he was taken care of.”
“Julia took great care of my pampered pooch. She was great about sending pictures about twice per day while I was away. I would recommend her as a pet sitter as long as your pet is ok with other dogs and cats.”
“John and Joanna continue to be amazing substitute parents for our two little Havanese. One of our dogs was having a problem going to the bathroom (which she has a vet appointment for) and they were so attentive to her. They made both of our dogs feel welcome and loved. We can’t wait to have them watch our dogs again soon!”
“Narawat and Michael were amazing pet sitters They gave Lacey excellent attention and lots of walks We are so appreciative of their attention to detail and the loving treatment they gave to Lacey We will certainly use them again and we tipped them well for their amazing service”

Kaylyn and Naman are great pet sitters! I highly recommend them. They took great care of our dog Alli, she was very happy and relaxed with them! They were attentive to her every need and always made sure she had walks and outside time. Alli had an eye problem and they took really excellent care of her. I would definitely trust your pets with them, they’re great!
Highly Recommended! I couldn't be happier with the care Barfie received! Nalleli did an incredible job socializing him and kept me updated with daily photos and videos, which I truly appreciated. It was so clear he was happy, well-exercised, and loved—I'll definitely be booking again!
We had our dog stay two nights with Sierra and she was absolutely amazing! She sent updates and photos, she always kept us informed. Our dog is super anxious and has separation anxiety and Sierra was so patient with him and made him feel comfortable right away. We can’t thank her enough.
April and Maple were such gracious hosts for our two labs, Nike and Blue. Updates were provided regularly and Maple and our pups were always smiling in the photos. Their yard is spacious and isolated where Nike and Blue could run and play freely. They came back exhausted and are eagerly awaiting their next visit!
Clay was fantastic for Nikki’s stay! This was her first stay with someone and Clay was so patient with her while she got comfortable. She also had some pretty extensive restrictions due to recent surgery and he was great with following the instructions and sent plenty of pictures.
Renata is lovely for overnight stays for our sweet dog. She is very calm, gentle and sensitive to his needs, making her the perfect fit for our puppo. He comes home feeling good! Her communication is super fast, and she was so kind and flexible when he had pick up our dog a little early. She truly cares. This was our dog's second overnight stay with her, and we will continue to book with her!
This is an absolutely fantastic choice for a dog-sitter, in my mind. Leslie was loving, caring and she treated Frances, my terrier-dachshund with the closest and kindest attention—plenty of walks, balanced diet, happy human company to sleep with when she desired, and various places to rest—so Leslie passed those all those important measures.She also sent me photographs with comments fairly often, which delighted me and made me know that Frances was safe and happy! But then, of Great value was the fact that she always could find positive human companionship—her cousin came, and let Frances and another dog, sleep on his knee, looking utterly content, her roommate really liked Frances and showed it, and Leslie did too. AND there was always her dog, and then occasionally a neighbor’s dog or another client’s dog visiting for a number of hours. That was Heaven for Frances, and just what I was hoping for. A place where Frances could be, as Leslie put it, a member of a pack. NOT a large, in any way overwhelming pack, but a small pack, consisting of one or two or conceivably three other dogs, which she could be with. THAT and the essential human warmth which was very much present—was all I could dream of—and Leslie provided it. Thank you so, so much. I will definitely use her services again! Leslie is cause for peace of mind, great happiness and satisfaction for Frances and me.
Leslie is simply the best. She provides top quality care for our sweet pup. She stays in communication with us and sends updates during our dog’s stay as needed. Her knowledge of small dogs and their unique needs is an added bonus. We couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter.
Parker’s second visit to Andrew’s place, and she’ so relaxed and happy. Andrew is very professional and takes time to understand the dog’s specific needs and concerns. And he sends the best pictures! We really appreciate his willingness to accommodate a random midweek overnight stay.
The kindest, sweetest, and one of the most humble person we have ever met. Omar took such great care of our pet and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. You can tell that he genuinely loves what he does. We truly appreciate the care and would absolutely trust Omar again in the future. Highly recommended!
Shannon and her family were so kind again. They took Benny for a longer period of time and communication was great again. Benny was really relaxed after his stay at Shannon's house which for me it's the best sign that he got the attention he needed. Many thanks again for making it possible that we could have our vacation with peace of mind.
Lisa is incredible! This was our first time using Rover and leaving Miles with someone other than family. Lisa was very understanding and helped us throughout the process. Lisa kept us updated multiple times a day, took him on multiple walks and treated him like her own. We are so grateful for Lisa and all she did for Miles while we were on vacation! We would definitely take him back to her if we were to travel again! Thank you Lisa for loving our sweet pup!
Akshata was wonderful. Penny had a great time and was clearly well taken care of. We got updates throughout her stay and Penny was clearly comfortable. I’d definitely book again with Akshata. Another big plus for us is she was right next to Dulles which made drop off and pick up a breeze.
