“We would highly recommend Gabriela’s dog boarding services. She’s very friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable about dogs and their needs. Gabriela also sent updates with photos and funny videos throughout our dog’s stay. It’a always great to return to a happy dog in good spirits. Thank you Gabriela! J & S Ross”
“This was the first time we have had our dog Keetna stay with Sarah. He seemed so happy while he was there and was having such fun! There is no doubt that he was well taken care of. Thank you, Sarah!”
“This is now my go to Sitter! I received happy and joyful pictures every day. I could tell my pup was loved and spoiled, and had a great time playing with the sitter’s pup. I’m so grateful for the great care, and it totally relieved me of all the anxiety that I normally have when leaving my pup with a sitter for a whole week. Jackie (-;”
“Rebeca & Roman are the best! They watch our two dogs, Sasha and Linx. Sasha and Linx used to get anxious when they would see us packing for a trip. Now they get excited knowing they get to visit their friends, Rebeca & Roman!”
“Carlos went above and beyond in the care and love he provided my dogs. They were regularly walked throughout the day and enjoyed their time with his dog, Sasha. He sent me many, many photos and videos showing them eating heartily, walking the sidewalks, and sleeping soundly. I highly recommend Carlod to others. You will have peace of mind.”
“Once again, Ms. Vronnie took excellent care of our fur baby! She’s definitely our go to sitter in Lorton! Professional, kind, and accommodating.”
“David was very responsive during the booking process, and kept us very well-informed about our pup's stay with him with lots of pictures and messages. I would definitely book with him again.”
“Moneya did an amazing job! I am sometimes skeptical of sitters with no reviews (for obvious reasons), but Moneya certainly gave me a new outlook and perspective. Everyone has to start somewhere! 100 reviews doesn’t automatically guarantee a great stay (I know from experience) and 1 review doesn’t mean that the sitter is inexperienced or a scammer. My other sitter cancelled on me around midnight and while I’m usually asleep, I happened to be awake to see the cancellation and had little to no time to find a sitter. I usually do meet and greets to make sure that my pups are responding well to the potential sitter and also to ensure safety on both parts. I messaged Moneya and she immediately responded. She was kind, professional, willing and extremely responsive. I would not hesitate to lodge Miloh again and will certainly be reaching out whenever I need services again. She sent pictures and Miloh honestly looked like he was having more fun there, than with us. Likely because there are no children and he loves kids! I told Moneya that Miloh may have had a bit of separation anxiety because I normally sit him with his brother, Kiwi and because of the last minute cancellation. (From someone who sat both), I don’t want it to be too much on a first time sitter, so I split them up. Moneya invited me to bring Kiwi along next time and let me know that she would definitely keep them, which lessens BOTH Miloh and my own anxiety, a ton. I highly recommend Moneya as a sitter and am most grateful that she took such great care of my pup!”
“Maria was on time when I brought the dogs to her home. Both dogs felt comfortable with Maria and her son. While both dogs were there, I received notifications that kept me updated on how the dogs were doing and the activities Maria took them to. When I picked up the dogs, they looked very happy and relaxed. Kudos to Maria for her excellent service! I will have her board my dogs when I get another opportunity.”
“Ariel did a great job looking after our Greyhound. She kept was well informed how she was doing and sent over various pictures in her updates. Ariel integrated our pet with her two dogs and children.”
“Sabine is amazing!! She was so good with our pup and treated her like her own! She gave multiple daily updates with pictures. Would 110% recommend her!!”
“Candice took very great care of Lucky, he was treated like one of her own. We will be coming back whenever we need her assistance agian. Great Communication and Professionalism. Thank you so much.”
“Celina and her family took wonderful care of our large dog during a long boarding session. I never had any concerns that our dog was well taken care of during this stay.”
“Thank you for taking such good care of Chase! I felt confident you were treating him like a member of your family and we could enjoy ourselves without worry.”
“Ada was wonderful, she took loving care of my dog, Holly. When I came to pick up Holly, she was happy and passed out as soon as we got home :-). She was tired from playing and spending time with Ada's dog Holly's size. Happy to have found Ada who could take care of my Holy when I need to travel for work. Thank you, Ada!!”
“Marcela was very flexible with timing, thorough in following instructions, and took extra care to make sure my dog was comfortable and safe post-op. It was nice to be able to relax on my trip knowing he was well taken care of.”
“Katherine took excellent care of our dog Goose. We were able to go on vacation knowing he was in good hands. He is a very energetic dog (springer spaniel) but got all the exercise he needed, especially with her dog to play with. He will definitely be staying with her again soon!”
