Pet Sitting Lorton

“Veronica was great with our dog Ares. She responded quickly to all messages and sent me pictures with each visit. She was very accommodating with my last minute changes I had to make to the drop-in schedule and is very personable.”

“Pick Kay if you want happy dogs and a reliable sitter. Kay went way beyond what I expected and made sure my dogs had the best play time, relaxing time, and exercise ever!”

“We couldn't be happier with Dawson's care for our two hounds — Cleo and Clover might love him more than us now! He kept us updated with regular photos, communicated clearly, and treated our girls with so much love and compassion. We’d gladly hire him again anytime!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since middle school, and over the past 6 years neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and play with their pets. I’m patient with shy or anxious dogs, high-energy pups, and senior dogs/dogs on medication. I send photo and video updates and follow each dog’s routine closely, so you can relax knowing they’re treated like family. As a commuter student at GMU, my schedule is structured and predictable, and I have flexible blocks between classes and on day at home and weekends. I plan my day around the dogs in my care, so they get regular walks, meals, and attention, and I can respond to messages quickly and accommodate last-minute requests. Your dog’s safety comes first. I will follow your instructions on feeding, medication, and routine, keep dogs leashed on walks, and never leave them unsupervised in unsafe areas. I’m happy to do a meet-and-greet beforehand and send updates throughout my time with your pooch ;)

“After meeting Dilya, I knew my little ones were in excellent hands - and it was clear that they loved her. She was communicative and - most importantly - reliable. I would book her again!”

About: I started out petsitting and doing walks at a doggy daycare center in Falls Church. Within a few months I was promoted to the center manager. We offered not only petsitting, walks and daycare, but boarding, grooming and pickup/drop off services. I worked there for three years in my young adult years. It was a very rewarding and fun part of my life, and every furry friend was a unique character I will never forget! I also have a ton of natural energy, and love to get some exercise on walks. I am currently flexible all day during the week. I have recently left the corporate world and I am in the process of building my professional organizing business to step away from the corporate rat race. I’m full of gratitude that I get the chance to care for furry children with my extra time! I have experience in the client’s home of crating pets, I am detail oriented and thorough, and ensure my care is loving and considerate of your home and furry family member.

“I feel so lucky to have found Katie! She got back to me right away about her availability and also addressed my concerns with helping to care for my senior dog. You can just sense Katie loves pups and her caring nature makes me feel confident that my dog will be well taken care of!”

“Melissa and her husband were amazing! They made sure my boy was fed well and walked/ran to let go of some energy! Haha. She kept me updated and sent pictures/video. I recommend them and I will definitely be using them again!”

About: My lifelong love for animals began growing up visiting farms, which taught me to be patient, gentle, and attentive to animal’s needs. I worked at an animal hospital for over a year, assisting veterinarians with administering medications to dogs and cats. I also handled the boarding and daily care of dogs, cats, birds, turtles, and geckos. I was trained to properly feed, monitor, bathe, and exercise over 100 pets per day. This hands-on medical and boarding experience allows me to provide a higher level of care, safety. I adore senior doggies and cats and the puppies and kittens are the funniest! I maintain a consistent weekly schedule that allows me to provide reliable and attentive pet care. I am available in the evenings on Mondays and Wednesdays after 7 PM, have midday and evening availability on Tuesdays, and can provide care in the mornings and evenings on Thursdays and Fridays. I am fully available on weekends, which allows for extended care, drop-ins, and flexible scheduling. When I care for pets in a client’s home, my main focus is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My experience working in an animal hospital taught me how to carefully follow routines, notice small changes in behavior, and handle pets gently in their own space. I treat every home with respect and stick to each pet’s usual schedule and owners requests, whether that’s feeding, medications, litter care, or walks. I’m trained to give medications and I always take my time to make sure everything is done correctly and calmly. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet behind, so I make sure to send updates, photos, and notes after visits. My goal is to keep pets relaxed and happy while giving pet parents peace of mind, knowing their furry family member is in caring hands.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for them. I’ve regularly dog and cat sat for friends and neighbors, and I have two dogs of my own. I’ve also previously had a bunny, so I’m comfortable caring for different types of pets and making sure each one feels safe, loved, and comfortable! I currently have a flexible schedule while I look for my next job, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets! I already walk my own dogs twice a day, so your pup would get the same routine, exercise, and attention. I’m happy to keep their usual feeding and walking schedule, send regular updates and photos, and make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m a very responsible, patient, and attentive person, and I take pet safety seriously. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they’re in a clean, comfortable, and secure environment. I’m careful to follow each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions, and I always pay close attention to their behavior and needs. I want every pet to feel safe, happy, and loved while they’re in my care.

“Dana was super friendly and bonded well with our two cats. She communicated well with us as well, which made us feel at easy while we were away. =)”

About: I always had dogs and cats growing up since I was 6. I've taken care of dogs (walking, feeding, bathing, and boarding) for my friends, neighbors and family for at least 6 years mostly for medium and small dogs when they are away/out of town. My husband and I work full time from home so my schedule is flexible to provide any services such as drop-in, walks, day care and boarding either on daily basis or on your special occasions. We have a dog (medium size) at home and we would like to ensure that we give lots of affection and playtime to your fur babies. We live in a townhouse surrounding by many traits and dog parks. My husband and I will give your fur babies lots of affection and playtime, we’ll do our best to make them feel at home! Our guest pups usually sleep alongside with our own dog in their individual beds, either in the basement or living room areas. Also, when providing drop-in visits, or dog walking services, I will not only be taking care of your dogs, but I will also take care of your home by taking a little extra time before I leave to ensure everything’s secure, and the dog has what they need before you come back.

“Denisa was AMAZING with my pup! She is so sweet and sent sooo many pictures and videos to make sure I knew what was going on and didn’t miss anything. My dog always looked happy and content. She was very responsive to my messages and any questions or anything I said. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!!”

About: I have had dogs and cats ever since I was 5 years old. Growing up with animals has conditioned me to love and care for every animal like it’s my own! I have had large dogs and small dogs. I have special needs animal experiences as one of my dogs had diabetes which required medication and special diets. I have a part time job so I am free most days. Although the part time job is mostly in 4-6 hour shifts which gives me flexibility to care for animals as well I have a fenced in yard and great trails near my house for walking! I live in a quiet neighborhood so loud noises won’t be an issue. I do have two younger brothers 5/6 who live in the house but are used to animals.

“Angela has been an absolutely wonderful cat sitter. She is reliable, always punctual, and clearly genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. During every visit, she kept us updated with thoughtful messages and great pictures, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was so reassuring to see our cat happy, comfortable, and well cared for in her hands. We truly appreciated her professionalism, communication, and attention to detail. We would highly recommend Angela to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

“Brigette is awesome. She’s helped us out with our near senior, somewhat particular spaniel and way too energetic kitten a couple of times now. We come back and they’re tired (in a good way) and happy. We trust her in our home and with our critters. Will definitely use Brigette going forward.”
