Pet care experience

Caring, safe, and happy home for 🐕

One Dog at a Time – Personalized Care in a Clean, Pet-Loving Home in Ashburn! Hi! I board only one dog or one household at a time, so your pup gets my full attention in a safe, loving environment. I have a fenced yard, a spacious deck, and a clean home where your dog can relax, play, and feel right at home. I work from home and grew up around all kinds of animals, so caring for dogs comes naturally. My kids adore dogs, and our own pup, Pippin, is friendly and always happy to have a buddy around! I ask that dogs be fully potty trained and not destructive, especially since we have young kids and lots of toys around. I’m happy to care for dogs with mild anxiety and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Let me know if you’d like to chat more—I’d love to meet your pup!

Smitha was very accommodating to our timing and she shared great pictures of jingles all along. She always responded to my query and I saw jingles really adored her and his stay with her family. This was my second trip with her and I feel safe to leave jingles in her care in the future too and definitely recommend her to others as well.

Smitha was great and kept us posted. Our Simba had a great day at her house today. Thank you Smitha.

Our pups seemed to really enjoy their time with Smitha. Lots of pictures, walks, and updates. I would highly recommend and we would use Smitha again.

Doggy Day Care • März 30, 2026

Smitha was very friendly from the start and jingles had no issue feeling safe the minute we dropped him. We were given frequent updates via photos and comments during the stay. Jingles seemed really happy and enjoyed the playtime in their yard. We will be connect with Smitha in the near future for Jingles boarding.

Smitha was friendly and nice. Max seems to have enjoyed his stay with Smitha - she was flexible in accommodating a late pickup when my flight was delayed by an hour.

Schedule

I work from home and have a dog of my own, so pet care easily fits into my daily routine. Since I only take one household at a time, your pup gets plenty of attention and care in a calm, loving environment.

Safety, trust & environment

At my home, dogs enjoy a safe, cozy space with room to play, relax, and eat. The fenced yard and deck offer plenty of secure outdoor time. I follow all care instructions whether it’s feeding, meds, or exercise so your pup’s routine stays on track. Since I host just one household at a time, they get my full attention and care.

To ensure the best care for your pet, please provide some important details ahead of time when you send request: How does your pet behave during walks? A picky eater? Food-motivated? Fully Potty-trained? Does your dog tend to mark inside the house or use pee-pads? What are your dog’s barking tendencies? Does your dog chew on things? Friendly with other dogs and kids? Up to date on vaccinations? Any allergies or medical conditions I should be aware of? This helps me tailor my care approach to meet your pet’s unique needs and ensure a comfortable environment.
