Pet care experience

Great fenced yard and friendly pup!

I’ve taken care of the family dog my entire life and I’ve been a dog owner for 15 years. I’ve trained and raised a St Bernard, a Great Pyrenees, a Westie, and our currently beloved lab-mix, Turnip! My husband, Adam, shares this account and helps us be more flexible with your care needs. We can both come by in the evenings for a visit/walk during the weekday and are available most weekends for walks, drop-ins, boardings, etc! We moved from Rosslyn and I know how hard it can be to find a sitter with a nice fenced yard and a friendly pup for your dog to play with while you’re gone, so we’re looking to supply that now that we’re in Fairfax City!

Millie had so much fun this weekend with turnip!! Shae and Adam provided updates at least 3x a day which was so nice. It seemed like Millie blended right in with all of them, I would definitely use Shae and Adam again!

Doggy Day Care • Aug 10, 2026

Shae and Adam were simply the best. Our dog Missy settled in right away. And picking her up at the end of the day, she was calm and well cared for! Thank you so much for keeping our girl company while we explored DC

Shaelyn & Adam were available last minute to take care of our dogs when we needed to leave town on short notice, and they did a great job. They sent me plenty of pictures, and our dogs had a fun time playing with their dog. Much appreciated and will book again!

Shaelyn is a wonderful dog mom and the most caring, thoughtful caregiver I’ve seen. I have known Shae for over three years and she has been amazing with my Westie and my great Pyrenees. She is extremely attentive to their needs and she always makes sure they are well cared for. Turnip, Shae‘s dog, is the most friendly dog and he gets along well with my two. They have so much fun playing, being walked in just hanging out together. I highly recommend Shae to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter.
