Highlights
Pet care experience
Pet-less family to love your pet
We are a family in Arlington without any pets of our own, but lots of love and willingness to care for your pet in our home so you can enjoy your time away. Our neighborhood is safe for walks days and nights, and we have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room to run. We follow your routine, so please let us know of any preferences or restrictions, both dietary and behavioral. We offer lots of outside time, hugs and kisses! Your pet can sleep wherever they prefer, on the couch, in our bed, or in their crate (per your request only). We don't walk pets off lease unless we are at a dog park, and we stay with them in the yard, in particular at night, so they are never left unattended. We have two boys, age 13 years old, who are very active and love to run and play with dogs and are gentle with them. The adults in the family work mostly from home, so someone will be with your pet at all times.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Katerina and Roland were wonderful with our Rosie! They gave her lots of exercise and attention, and managed her initial separation anxiety well (as I could see her settling in quickly in the many pictures and videos they shared!). We would definitely use them again if schedules allow.
Gave lots of updates and pictures. They took great care of Remy!
Ozzy had a lovely happy sleepover
Always happy to have Lola stay with Roland, Katerina, Julian and Felix. They send lots of pics and videos and she looks very happy to be with them. Makes it so much easier to go away knowing that she is in such good hands!
Katerina & Roland were great taking care of our beagle Ruthie while we were away for a long weekend. They and their boys made Ruthie feel welcome and right at home in their house and yard. Their frequent texts, photos, and videos of Ruthie in action and at rest made us comfortable and able to relax and enjoy our mini vacation. We will definitely re-book with them when we go away in the future.
Roland was incredibly responsive and thoughtful. We loved getting pictures and videos throughout the day. Highly recommend.

Schedule
We prefer to do a meet and greet so we can see how your dog will fit into our home as well as get to know its habits and preferences. We make sure we have the time right after drop off to go for a walk with your dog so they get faster acclimated attention during the day.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We are loving with the dogs we are sitting and make sure they get lots of outside and play time as needed during the day. We also don't give food from the table and are careful with treats, using only ones we have already checked with you. Since we don’t have any dogs or pets of our own, we have the time and attention to focus on your pet.
A typical day
We have a great pond and gentle hills and woods near our house where dogs can go to explore as well as an off-lease area in our backyard that is completely fenced in. There are two dog parks within a 10 minutes drive of our house where we can bring the dogs for off lease exercise and socialization.
