“We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience with Heather. After a few disappointing encounters with other sitters who didn’t even show up to meet our dog, Heather was a breath of fresh air. Not only did she show up as promised, but she immediately connected with our dog, treating him with genuine warmth and affection. While we were away, Heather cared for our pup as if he were her own—providing regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind. It was clear he was in loving and capable hands. We wholeheartedly recommend Heather to anyone in need of a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter. She exceeded all of our expectations.”


“We are very pleased with Lindsey. She took real good care of our Rocky. She communicated with us the entire time she was caring for our pup. We highly recommend her and we definitely use her again in the future.”


“Mary Jane is an amazing sitter. First time having her sit for our two dogs. Two days before we left one of our dogs had to be put on crate rest. I was worried we would have to cancel our trip. Mary Jane came over and was confident there would be no issues. She followed the med schedule and did logs like I asked. AMAZING communication. Our one timid dog loved having her and even sat in her lap. Will be hiring again!”


“This was the first time we left our puppy Fiona. We left her with Evangeline and couldn’t be more pleased. Fiona loves her. Our puppy and home were very well taken care of. We would definitely use Evangeline again!”


About: Hello!! My name is Briana, but I go by Bri :). I’ve been caring for animals most of my life. I”ve had guinea pigs, hamsters, cats, dogs, and fish. I have my own cat for over 5 years and have regularly helped friends and family with their pets while they are on vacation. Whether that’s walking them, feeding them, playtime or cuddles. I’m all about giving your fur babies a comfortable and loving space as well as giving you a peace of mind! :) I currently work a full time job Monday-Friday. I get off around 4:30-5 each day (depends) and I’m pretty much free on most weekends :) I prefer not to care in my home since I still live with my parents. However, in your home, I would make sure your pet gets the love and care they need and deserve! I will make sure they stay hydrated, fed, loved for, play with them, even take them on walks or cuddle and watch a movie! :)

“Aly was truly amazing. The moment she said my old lady aloof cat had cuddled with her, The stress of leaving my fur kids with someone new melted away. The whole craw absolutely love her and she sent pictures. She just completely put my mind at ease and we’ll be booking with her again.”


“Rebecca treated my little girl Hazel with love and so much care, she did everything that I asked of her. She sent me pictures while I was away. I highly recommend her to take care of your pet.”


“Tiffany, was great! She listened carefully when I gave her directions and then modified them when things changed with my dog Tcup. She alerted me when my dog got anxious and she kindly helped to calm him down. All in all she got to really enjoy him which made me glad that he had good company!”


About: I have cared for friends and family dogs. I think they can tell when you like them. I’ve always been able to connect with dogs. I’m retired. I was an LPN for 30yrs. I have lots of free time to care for your dog. I definitely can give them meds.😊 If you have fenced yard. I’d play with them clean up and check on them often and bring them in and make sure gates are secure.

About: I have had the honor of having dogs my entire life. Recently, helped my daughter potty training her last to rescue puppies. They have become protectors of my grandchildren. I'm currently enjoying my summer break and would love to offer my services for walks during the early mornings and evenings. On cooler days, I’m also available for midday walks. Additionally, if you need overnight care, I can provide that service in your home upon request. Currently, I do not have pets in my home, as I do not have a fenced yard that would allow them to safely play and enjoy outdoor activities.

“Grace took care of my dog Lexi for four nights and days. She was so communicative, and sent me pictures and videos the whole time. She left my place spotless and was very respectful of my home. Lexi looked happy to be with her from the videos I got. I would recommend Grace highly!”


About: I’ve been caring for dogs (family, friends, my own) for 15 years. Dogs are pure love when they get to know you and I treat them like part of my family. Walks, proper nutrition and socialization are critical for an overall well-balanced life. I want to help you give a happy life to your pup in whatever stage of life he/she is in. I do work remotely (from home) at a full time job so my pet care hours would be limited before/after work and possibly during lunch breaks. It’s so important that your dog feel comfortable with me in their home. So I make a point to have at least one (or more) meet-and-greets at your home with you there to get your dog used to the idea of seeing me in that space. If you are scheduling a drop in visit, this will include potty breaks, replenishing water (or food if instructed) and play time. Walks will be one dog at a time but will also include replenishing water bowls.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and developed a deep love and respect for animals from an early age. I grew up with two cats, one of whom was truly my best friend. She was by my side 24/7 throughout my childhood, and her passing was incredibly difficult, a reminder of just how deep the bond with an animal can be. I also regularly cared for a neighbor’s dog while he was in hospice. I’ve looked after friends’ pets while they were on vacation, always making sure they felt safe, loved, and well cared for. Animals have always held a special place in my heart, they often make the most loyal and understanding companion I am currently working Monday-Friday 8am-5pm. I am willing to check in on animals during week days before I go into work and after. I am ok with staying overnight as well. I am available on weekends whatever times are needed. In client’s home I follow the directions of care that they have requested for their pet. I also start by greeting the pets and making sure they get as much love as they need as it is difficult for them when their owner is not there.

About: As a work-from-home father, my flexible schedule accommodates needy pups or cats requiring frequent visits or overnight care. I currently have 2 small dogs and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. If you live in this area, I'm here for you! I also run (slowly) so if you have a dog that wants to run off energy for a few miles, I'm in! I work from home with minimal meetings (about 5 hours/week.) so I can make frequent visits during the day or even take my computer over to your place if you have good wi-fi! I have a fenced-in backyard of about 3/4 an acre. My two small dogs are friendly and we are glad to introduce them if this interests you and your dog. Our dogs have free run of the house and sleep on the bed.

“We were in town for a wedding and Hope was able to watch our pup in the hotel very last minute! She communicated with us the entire time and sent us pictures of our fur baby. He loved her and it meant so much to us! We highly recommend her!”

“Michael was great... he kept me updated with photos and was in and out as if he was never there! Followed my requests for my dog to a T! Highly, highly recommended! Very responsive. Thank you, Michael!”

About: I can help! I have just over four years raising my dogs. I also have some experience rescuing dogs when I was growing up. And a variety of pets from snakes to cats. I currently work at home full time and looking for more activity! I can take care of pets any time. Check out our pics, our family is dedicated to making your pets feel at home while your away. 🙂 We let pet roam free in our home and have pet friendly furniture. There is a fenced dog park for small and large dogs on site! We also have cages and an extra large balcony for extra outdoor space to roam!

“Kayda arrived promptly for our Meet & Greet and seemed to connect well with the pets right away. Then she stayed at our house overnight to take care of the animals while we were at an event in northern VA. She kept me well informed, sending a text and photos to let me know that everything was going well. She left the house and the animals in great shape. We will definitely book her again.”
