About: Our family-owned company has been proudly providing professional pet care services for the past three years. With a lifelong passion for animals and personal experience caring for a variety of beloved pets, we treat every animal as part of our family. As my husband and I currently work from home, we have plenty of time to give your dog the attention they deserve. I’ll ensure regular potty breaks and incorporate playtime throughout the day to keep them happy and active! We have a fully fenced 1-acre yard, providing a spacious and safe area for supervised outdoor play. Indoors, pups are free to be part of our day-to-day home life, relaxing on the couch, napping nearby, and spending time with us, so they truly feel at home. If needed, we can use baby gates to create separate areas to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety. Pups enjoy plenty of outdoor playtime, both in group settings and one-on-one, creating a fun, enriching, and safe environment for all. Daily Routine: Most of the day will include supervised outdoor playtime in our large, fully fenced yard. We spend much of our time outdoors, creating the perfect environment for pups to have fun, explore, and enjoy our assortment of ropes, tug toys, and tennis balls. During warmer weather, with your permission, we also set up puppy/dog pools and a splash pad for them to cool off and have extra fun. We accommodate dogs with different energy levels by rotating playtimes. High-energy pups can run and play to their hearts’ content, while those who prefer a quieter experience can enjoy exploring the yard or sniffing around in a calmer setting. This approach ensures every dog has a safe and enjoyable experience without feeling overwhelmed. Sleeping Arrangements: Our goal is to keep your pup as comfortable and close to their home routine as possible while ensuring a safe environment. If your dog is uncrated at home you can choose family style, where they will sleep with our pack or we can separate them with baby gates as needed. For crate-trained pups, we set up a crate in the kitchen for a comfortable environment! Time Spent with Your Dog: We’ll be home most of the time, giving your pup plenty of attention and care. On rare occasions, we may step out for an hour or two, but the majority of our time is spent ensuring your dog feels safe, loved, and entertained.

“Kathryn took great care of our two cats last week, including one that needs to be medicated twice/day. She was very reliable and trustworthy, and stayed in constant communication with us throughout the week.”

“Hailey is a fantastic pet sitter! We have used her twice now, and even though our kitty is shy and doesn’t come out, Hailey makes sure she is well taken care of when we’re gone. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for quality pet care.”

About: I grew up with dogs. Taking care of them was part of my every day life and I loved our time together. Now, as a mom to one kid and a dog, I love spending time with the animals. We are an active family and enjoy spending time outdoors with our dog, Bruno. We have an outdoor yard and enjoy frequent walks in our neighborhood. We also love to visits the dog park. I believe all animals need fresh air, exercise, love and positivity. I don’t work over the summer and am opening up our home to other animals who are in need of a caring home for a day, weekend or week or two. Please reach out with any questions and I hope to meet your furry friend soon. I look forward to having your dog join our family, whether it is for a day, a week, or longer! I am a teacher and am home all summer. This is my summer job. I walk the dog three times a day. We play fetch and tug. I would do the same for your dog. I can board dogs who are crate trained, or well behaved. Bruno gets along well with other dogs. I have a large home where dogs have room to play. We also take trips to dog park for off leash time. I have Bruno, who is very friendly and playful.

About: 28-year old residing in Lovettsville, VA in the NOVA area. Easy-going and very patient. Previously a ferret owner; I miss him very dearly. I’m very athletic and can keep up with your most active pets. Dog walking and drop-in’s are my main gig but would be open to discussing other arrangements in certain circumstances. Currently a full-time Kindergarten TA. I will be able to visit your furry friend after my day job Mon-Thurs, which ends at 3:00pm any time after that I’m all yours! Very aware of surroundings at all times as well as the status of your pet. I stay alert and cautious with all furry friends as they are just as precious to me as they are to you!

“Matthew came last minute for me and did a phenomenal job. I have a Cane Corso and German Shepherd and he handled both without any issues. Def will be using him again and highly recommend him.”

“Disha is AMAZING! She was able to bond with my very grumpy older cat from the beginning. Even though he normally hides from strangers, Disha had him literally eating out of her hand & purring from the 2nd day! She sent me pics and videos of each of her visits, so I wouldn't worry. I highly recommend Disha to anyone who wants their pet to be loved & catered to while they are away. If we could give her 10 stars, we would!”

About: My pup is an older King Charles clavier mix and the sweetest thing ever. She just had her 12th birthday and I have had her since she was 2! I also have experience with big dogs! My boyfriend has a German shepherd and a Rottweiler who I spend lots of time around. One of my roommates at school also has a cat who lives with us! I have experience watching both dogs and cats and just have a deep love for the both!! I am currently working part-time doing an internship for my school, which has given me lots of free time. I love spending time with my pup either just relaxing, going for walks, or playing. My pup is very well trained which makes it very easy for me to take her out as she doesn’t require a leash. However, I have experience with dogs who have a tendency to run if they get the chance 😂 So I am familiar with adjusting to different dogs needs!

About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 13! I have had multiple dogs (all rescue) in my home that I have fed, bathed, walked, and administered medication. I have been working in dog shelters since 2021, so I am comfortable with all dogs from all backgrounds! I have a pitbull terrier mix, a semi-feral outdoor cat, fish, and two crested geckos! Pet care is something I do every single day, including: feeding, bathing, walking, medication administration, and habitat cleaning! I always meet an animal where they are. I don't want to impose on their personal space or do something to make them scared. I don't expect every animal to be super warm and cuddly, everyone has different needs! I can cater as fancy or as downplayed a routine as you need to make your fur-babies (or non-furry) feel safe!

“Angie was very reliable. Tater is almost 16 and recovering from an illness. Angie was very good with him and took extra care when taking him out. Would definitely book again!”

About: My whole life we had cats and dogs. I have house sat for neighbors and friends with pets since I was ten years old. I currently own a rabbit. I have also cared for all kinds of rodents, fish, and reptiles. I have trained puppies and kittens and a bunny. I also cared for my older dachshund and gave him shots and necessary medications. I work part time teaching yoga throughout the week and have lots of availability. I only have custody of my kids every other week making my week without them a great time for extra hours and house sitting. I keep pets from being hungry, thirsty, or bored. I keep pets nicely groomed and their areas and things nicely cleaned. I offer direct focus and affection. I can walk or run with dogs. I love doing yoga on the floor and watching cats or my rabbit climb all over me and get affection.

About: Ever since I was around ten years old I was the neighborhood’s go-to guy for any kind of pet care they needed while away. I’ve had multiple pets in my lifetime and have developed the skills I need to create a bond with any animal I meet. I’m currently available anytime you might need pet care. I’m happy to check up on your pets early in the morning as well as very late depending on your needs. I make sure to be very respectful of peoples homes and try to keep everything neat and as I found it. I like to play with pets where they are comfortable in their own space.

“Danielle has done a fantastic job of dropping in and checking on our needy rescue pups during the day. From the visit pictures she provides we can always tell that our dogs are well taken care of and happy to see her. Great!”

“We had such a wonderful experience with Lauren! She was prompt, communicative, and even stopped by before our trip to meet us and the cats, which gave us so much peace of mind. She followed all of our feeding instructions perfectly and sent us daily updates with plenty of photos of the cats (and their food!), which we really appreciated while we were away. She also made sure to spend quality time playing with them. It’s clear how much she truly loves animals. We came home to two very happy cats! We will absolutely use her again and would highly recommend her to any family and friends. Thank you, Lauren!”

About: Our little family (Nathan, Kelly, and our kids) are raising Huck, a 1 year old Yellow Lab. We’ve trained him and are found walking around town with him often. As dog owners, we know how much it means to us when someone we trust is able to watch our dog. Now we want to give the same option to other pet owners. While most of our experience is with dogs, my wife can also cat sit and we also have had a fish in recent years. We are laid back, but also have some active hobbies, such as hiking, kayaking and traveling. We would love to hang out, walk, play, and feed your pup in the comfort of his or her home, or welcome him or her to ours. In addition to Huck, Kelly and I rescued a reactive dog with separation anxiety and had him for several years. I grew up with a mini-Pom and also helped raise a golden retriever from a puppy. We also have many friends with dogs and sit for them frequently. We are very comfortable administering oral medication but since we will be bringing the dog around our family, the dog should not be aggressive or reactive. We are at home most days and we homeschool and work from home for several days throughout the week. We are happy to work with your schedule to support your pet. We love to play with dogs. Our kids have been around dogs since they were very young and love cats as well, although we don’t have one.

“Highly recommend! Rebecca was fantastic with Zoey. She took the time to send me a quick photo or two, gave her plenty of attention, and followed all our instructions perfectly. Zoey was happy and relaxed when we got back and we could tell she had a great time! We felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands!”

About: I’ve been dog sitting for friends for years. When I purchased my own home one of the dogs I was taking a care of ended up being my dog full time due to circumstances the previous owner wasn’t anticipating. Shortly after after we adopted a pit bull from the shelter and they became best friends. A year later we tried fostering and he fit in the pack so well that we failed and adopted him 3 weeks later. I took a hiatus from Rover to acclimate the newest addition to “being a dog” he had a sad backstory and was learning to be a dog with his brothers. Now that he’s settled in and confidently part of the pack he’s always very excited to spend time with new dogs and often mimicks their behaviors trying to be like them! We’re still working on smaller dogs if in honest. But bigger dogs he seems to love to idolize. I have a lot of love to give. Both a fenced in yard and non fenced in yard and live close to a state park for walks. I do work M-F but welcome dogs all week long. Currently only accepting spayed and neutered dogs for boarding. Asking for 3 days notice but life happens and if I’m available can do same day! I’m currently working full time M-F but as long as your dog is spayed or neutered I have plenty of room for them! I have a finished basement that if they require their own space will be very easy to separate from my dogs if needed. I’m around most weekends and holidays. I have a fenced in yard, a non fenced in yard, 3 dogs to keep your dog company and a closed off finished basement if they need space.
