I have a complicated bunch of furbabies but Stacy is diligent, and patient, and thorough. She remembered their names and their meds. She made me feel comfortable and confident they were safe and in good in hands while I was away. Her check on reports are also comprehensive!

Loved having Luz taking care of my kitties! They felt comfortable enough to come out a lot more quickly than with other sitters. She's reliable and follows instructions for the kitties. Would definitely recommend😊

About: With 25 years of experience in pet care, I bring a deep understanding of animals’ needs and an unwavering love for their well-being. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of sharing my life with three amazing cats, each of whom taught me the profound bond we can share with our pets. While their short lifespans have led me to focus more on pet-sitting now, my commitment to providing a safe, loving environment for all pets remains strong. I understand how much these companions mean to you, and I treat each one with the same care and affection I would my own. We have a family of three boys, the two older ones are in love with being able to have new dogs to pet! I am currently working full time, and my husband is home with our baby. My middle son has reached that age of being a ‘big helper’ with the pets we have been sitting. He loves helping me feed them and walk them. But especially, he loves to pet them! I am very dependable, I live in a very walkable pet friendly area. Close to Tacketts Mill pond for the dogs to walk around. We have a fenced in yard as well.

About: I have been pet and house sitting since 2022. So far I have been pet sitting for friends and their friends, but I wanted to extend my services to the lovely people in my area. I grew up with a big dog as our family pet. Though he is no longer with us he was the perfect sassy addition to our family. Since I have started pet sitting I have had 4-legged clients of ALL sizes, we are talking teacup pup to 100+ lbs. I also have experience with all ages ranging from ~6months to senior and I understand their different needs and energy levels. I love to run and walk especially when a doggy friend tags along. I am by no means a professional trainer but I understand dog’s need for clear commands and exercise I am an engineering student at GMU and my schedule can be a little funky compared to a typical 9-5. Please reach out to check my specific daily and long term availability! I take very great care for the safety of the animals that I watch over. I take special care when unleashing dogs to make sure that we are in a secure location (ex. Closed garage/door or fence). While on walks, even with friendly dogs, I try to stay away from others to prevent any potential incidents from happening. I also have experience with giving animals oral medication. I take close care to keep the medications on schedule and triple check that the medication was taken and not spit out (they can be sneaky sometimes).

About: Welcome to my page, where I am striving to create more empowered pet owners! I am a professional dog trainer who has experience training in many different styles. I continue to pursue my degree, multiple different K9 nutrition certifications, and go to seminars to continue to build my knowledge base on different types of training. In boarding, I focus on mental enrichment and thrive to create more educated and confident pet owners. I’m always open to questions and would love to talk more about any of my services! Pet care; from training to walking to boarding is my entire routine. Aside from my gym time, this is what I will spend my entire day doing. Dogs are my passion so it’s never a chore to give all I have to these furry friends. Pet care is my whole business. I am building a business that is well rounded and based on customer trust. Dogs in my care are put in a safe clean environment. They are never unsupervised while out and well cared for. I focus on mental enrichment as well as physical activity to keep dogs well rounded and fulfilled while in my care! I believe that communication is key and frequently send updates to make sure you’re up to date!

About: I’ve worked with a variety of animals such as dogs, cats and exotic animals through working at two different animal hospitals that included kennel work. One hospital I started working at the age of 16 , where I did kennel work for a year and then was promoted to working as a Veterinarian Assistant. I am currently working at an Exotic animal hospital that sees cats and dogs as well as domestic exotic animals . I have been working there for about a year . The hospital also allows overnight boarding for exotic animals so I have experience taking care of a plethora of different types of animals. Along with, I used to walk my neighbor’s dog after school when I was younger. I am currently just graduated with my bachelor's degree in Pre-Veterinary Science and will be attending Veterinary School in the fall. As an incoming vet school student with a passion for animal care, I am fully devoting my time to deeply care for your fur babies. I intend to keep your pet safe during any time I have with them. I plan to make sure your fur baby stays healthy and safe during our walks to and from your home.

This was my first time using Rover, I also needed a dog sitter really last minute so I was pretty nervous but Brenda put me at absolute ease with clear communication from the start. My dog is kind of a handful because she’s only 9 months old & this was the first time she had been taken care of by a stranger but I don’t think there could have been someone better than Brenda. She understood all the details, asked the right questions during our virtual meet & greet, & provided me with all the useful information I needed to have as a first time user. She took such good care of my pup, we will definitely book her again. Thank you so much Brenda for being so accommodating & kind, we had a wonderful experience.

About: I’ve volunteered at shelters since I was 15 (Prince William County and Lost Dog & Cat Rescue). I’ve had dogs in my family since I was 8. I have a friendly Irish Setter named Lacy at home, who loves new friends. I am currently unemployed and in grad school (virtual) so my schedule is open at the moment. My normal pet care routine is centered around my dog which is very low maintenance but will make adjustments according to needs of each dog. I have a fenced in backyard. The back yard is not massive but there is a lake at the end of my neighborhood that I take my dog too every day. I have one very friendly Irish Setter. She is 3 years old and spayed.

I can't recommend Gabriella highly enough. While I was on vacation, she noticed my furry friend's water fountain wasn't working and took it upon herself to order him a new one. She goes above and beyond when providing care for your pet. She is awesome.
