Animals always follow me around

Hi. My name is Renata. All my clients have given me five stars for walking, petsitting, or boarding their pets in my home. I have taken care of dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. My experience not only includes being a full-time, dedicated petsitter, but I have also worked at a doggy daycare center and the Washington Humane Society. Also, I am a volunteer for the Fairfax County Animal Shelter. I will be responsible and care for your pet, and I will give him/her extra attention since I am home all day.

Renata is lovely for overnight stays for our sweet dog. She is very calm, gentle and sensitive to his needs, making her the perfect fit for our puppo. He comes home feeling good! Her communication is super fast, and she was so kind and flexible when he had pick up our dog a little early. She truly cares. This was our dog's second overnight stay with her, and we will continue to book with her!

My dog, Cher, has as much of a vacation as I do when I’m gone. Renata has a quiet household with many walks and snuggles, which is perfect for my old lady. We are so grateful for her!

Our little guy had a wonderful week with Renata! She was amazing with him! She was very attentive to his preferences, and she sent updates and great pics each day. He looked relaxed in the pics, and it helped us to see him enjoying himself! Renata was super kind to us about accommodating scheduling changes. She put me at ease! Most important, in the past with a different boarder, our little puppo returned home seeming a little frazzled. But after a week with Renata, he came home relaxed and happy!! We will return!! :)

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced outside area next to a common grassy area behind my house. I can easily crate your dog if needed and take him/her for a walk through the woods or in the neighborhood. My household is quiet; if that is what your pet prefers, they will be in a calm environment.

A typical day

I enjoy playing fetch with dogs and blowing bubbles. I have balls, bones, and rope toys for the dogs to play with during the day. We also walk along the trail in the woods by my house to smell all the new smells and to visit the creek. For cats, I can stimulate them with feather toys, string, laser toys, or help them relax with a good brushing. Of course, I always love to cuddle with any pet.

Let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs, preferences, and behaviors, and if you have a dog, how he/she is with other dogs. I prefer not to give medicine to pets, but I am okay with giving pill pockets.
