“I would like to personally recommend Xiao if you need an outstanding dog sitter. I boarded my baby Skip Marley with her for a week. She kept me informed on how he was doing sending me pictures and videos which helped put me at ease in knowing he was being well cared for. I believe Skip may have been afraid at the beginning and on guard, but by the time I went back to pick him up he was a happy and healthy guy. I am sure she spoiled him rotten. He did not want to leave. She has a big gated back yard where Skip could run around and explore. I will definitely use her again. Thank you so much Xiao for taking care of my baby!”
“Great stay for our dogs! Chris went above and beyond to care for our dogs. He was responsive and flexible. We are looking forward to many more bookings with him. Thank you, Christopher!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we first connected, Tatyana was kind, professional, and truly caring. They treated my pup like family—sending me regular updates, pictures, and even little notes about how the day was going. I felt so comfortable knowing my dog was not only safe, but genuinely happy and loved.”
“Max took wonderful care of our doggies and they will definitely stay with her again! She made them feel right at home and was really great helping each dog get comfortable in their own way. The dogs were happy and healthy when we picked them up. Wonderful place!”
“Our dog Bonnie stayed with Theresa for 10 days. She is amazing! I didn’t worry about Bonnie for a second. Theresa was communicative, sent photos, and took great care of our girl. Highly recommend!!”
“What peace of mind to know that Buster was in caring, experienced hands with Anne-Marie. Anne-Marie was great with communication, and clearly has a love for dogs. Her house is in a quiet community with plenty of space for longer walks. Buster was immediately comfortable in her house and with Anne-Marie!”
“Piero took great care of our two dogs during our two-week vacation! He provided photo and video updates and was flexible with pickup and drop-off times. Both dogs were happy and healthy at the end of their stay. We’d happily leave them with Piero again in the future!”
About: For over 20 years, I’ve devoted my life to caring for dogs with the same love and attention I give my own. As a professional groomer and lifelong animal lover, I’ve learned that every dog has its own personality, quirks, and needs—and that they all deserve a safe, happy place to call home while their families are away. At my home-based boarding, your pup isn’t just a guest—they’re family. With a cozy indoor space, a secure outdoor play yard, and plenty of cuddles in between, I make sure every tail wags with joy. Whether it’s playtime, rest time, or a little extra pampering, my goal is always to give them comfort, care, and peace of mind—so you can feel at ease knowing your best friend is in loving hands. Pet care is my life and my passion. As a home-based groomer with 20+ years of experience, I combine professional skills with the comfort of a family environment. Dogs aren’t just clients—they’re guests in a loving home where every wagging tail is noticed, every need is met, and every pup feels safe, happy, and cared for. My home-based setup allows me to give personalized attention, cozy care, and consistent love that bigger facilities often can’t match. My home doubles as a haven for pups! I have a cozy basement workshop where I work, a special indoor play yard where puppies can romp safely, and a fenced outdoor yard for fresh-air fun. And of course, after work, it’s family time—they’re free to snuggle, play, and enjoy life with me beyond the yard.
“Gail was an excellent sitter to my pup! They sent daily photos and videos, and was very quick to respond. They even put together the cutest birthday for my dog since we were out of town and unable to celebrate. They ordered a cake and everything! Since moving to the DMV area 3 years ago, Gail is the best sitter we have found. You are in wonderful hands with Gail and we are looking forward to using them in the future!”
“This is an absolutely fantastic choice for a dog-sitter, in my mind. Leslie was loving, caring and she treated Frances, my terrier-dachshund with the closest and kindest attention—plenty of walks, balanced diet, happy human company to sleep with when she desired, and various places to rest—so Leslie passed those all those important measures.She also sent me photographs with comments fairly often, which delighted me and made me know that Frances was safe and happy! But then, of Great value was the fact that she always could find positive human companionship—her cousin came, and let Frances and another dog, sleep on his knee, looking utterly content, her roommate really liked Frances and showed it, and Leslie did too. AND there was always her dog, and then occasionally a neighbor’s dog or another client’s dog visiting for a number of hours. That was Heaven for Frances, and just what I was hoping for. A place where Frances could be, as Leslie put it, a member of a pack. NOT a large, in any way overwhelming pack, but a small pack, consisting of one or two or conceivably three other dogs, which she could be with. THAT and the essential human warmth which was very much present—was all I could dream of—and Leslie provided it. Thank you so, so much. I will definitely use her services again! Leslie is cause for peace of mind, great happiness and satisfaction for Frances and me.”
“My dog Tako was extremely well taken care of and I got frequent updates. Shanilka was very easy to communicate with and she was very flexible as my travel plans changed due to the weather. I will absolutely be using her again if I ever need!”
“My pups were so welcomed and comfortable immediately. It was everything I wanted for them and had no worries while I was gone. What a loving family and beautiful home.”
“John was fantastic, and I definitely plan to use him next time I go away! He was super-professional (yet very friendly), sent me lots of pictures, and I could tell my dog Venus was happy as a clam while she was staying with John. I can't say enough about how great John was.”
“I wish I could give 10 stars to Karen and her family! Our dog, Casey, is a rescue who is a bit anxious when he is away from us, but we didn’t need to worry. Karen kept us updated and we could sense how happy Casey was during his stay. I highly recommend Karen; I know she will be our first choice for a “home away from home” for our dog!!!”
“Mindy has been very accommodating and reliable with our 2 golden retrievers. Previous planned dog sitter cancelled 12 hours before, Mindy onboarded them in no time and they felt home right away. I do recommend her wo. Any doubts”
“Andrea and Michael couldn’t have been sweeter to our little pup. They kept us up to date with pictures and gave our little guy his daily medications. We could tell that he enjoyed his time there immensely. We have used other sitters but have never been happier than we were with Andrea and Michael. We would not hesitate to use them again. Highly recommend.”
“Thank you so much to Jayendri and her family for taking such excellent care of Mona! I feel truly at ease knowing our dog is in the hands of such wonderful people. Thank you!”

Wenyan was incredible!! Our dog absolutely adores her and loved playing with all of his new boarding friends during his stay. Wenyan is extremely reliable, responsive, and communicative and made sure to send me daily updates of his walks, feeding, play time, health, etc (with tons of pictures and videos). It’s very evident how much love she pours into her job as a caretaker, and I was never worried about our dogs’ care while we were away. She was even able to administer his monthly medication with no issues! Thank you again and looking forward to our next booking!
James, Nicolette, and their children took excellent care of our nine month old Portuguese Water Dog puppy. Lizzy was treated as part of their loving family and had plenty of exercise and attention. My wife and I received constant updates and photos. I highly recommend them and would use them again without hesitation in the future.
We boarded our dog, Jackson, with Ivan for two weeks while we were on vacation. He came back happy and healthy. We particularly appreciated daily pictures of Jackson from Ivan. Our 2-year old English Springer Spaniel needs lots of exercise and we were particularly happy to see that in addition to being let out in the back yard, Ivan walked Jackson daily in a wooded park.
We had a great experience leaving our senior dog with Huan for two weeks while we were away. She sent daily photos and videos and kept us updated, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. She took him on walks, made sure he got plenty of rest, and clearly cared about his well-being. When we picked him up, he was calm, happy, and healthy. It was also nice that Huan has a small dog. They got along well and kept each other company. We would definitely trust Huan with our dog again and highly recommend her!
I was a little nervous with leaving Miss Millie with a new sitter. However once meeting Dawn, all my fears vanished. Dawn is very personable and exudes professionalism, confidence, and a great understanding of dogs. Miss Millie took to her and her little yorkie Rascal immediately and had a blast in the large yard. Pictures and updates were sent regularly which was much appreciated. I highly recommend Dawn and Rascal as the perfect hosts.
We reached out to Brenda for a last minute trip but she was able to quickly arrange a meet and greet with us so we could proceed with the booking. The stay was almost a month long for Emma but looked like my girl got tons of hugs and love while under her care. Tons of photos and she was also responsive during Emma's stay.
Carolina and Ana were fantastic sitters and treated our dog as if she was their own. You can definitely tell they treated our dog with love, care and attention. We loved the constant updates and pictures, and felt comfortable knowing our fur baby was in good hands. We will definitely use Carolina again in the future.
Kathleen did an exceptional job watching Tyson. Communication was great. In every picture he looked at peace and happy. Kathleen exceeded my expectations. Tyson was so perfectly cared for. I will definitely be using her services again. I cannot recommend Kathleen enough.
Sabina takes excellent care of our dog! She follows our instruction exactly and updates us daily with pictures. She also gives lots of attention and does lots of activities with Saska. He’s definitely very happy at her place! We would not hesitate to choose her again in the future!
Sure! Here’s a polished review you can use: --- We couldn’t be happier with Katrina as our dogsitter! She is incredibly communicative and keeps us updated every step of the way. It’s clear she has a lot of experience. Our dogs warmed up to her right away and are always relaxed and happy when we return. Being able to go on vacation with peace of mind, knowing our dogs are getting the absolute best care and attention, is priceless. Highly recommended!
