Doggy Day Care in Pohick

“I am convinced that I have never met a more kind human on this blue rock called earth. She came through last minute for us big time. She was so kind to my cowardly little pit bull and gave her the time and care she needed. To say Veronica is the best choice for anyone to call is an understatement of epic proportions. Thank you so much ma'am! You are truly a gem!”

“Lizabeth is absolutely amazing and a true dog lover! She took such great care of our fur baby, Starbuck, and treated her like one of her own. From the moment we met, Lizabeth was warm, friendly, and super communicative, which made us feel completely at ease. We received regular updates and photos, and it was clear that Starbuck was having a blast and getting lots of love and attention. When we picked up Starbuck she was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust, and we’re definitely booking with Lizabeth again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and responsible pet sitter!”

About: ​What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my genuine love for all dogs and my extensive experience caring for them. I've had the pleasure of watching all types of dogs, from energetic puppies to calm seniors, and from tiny Chihuahuas to giant Saint Bernards. ​I treat every dog as if they were my own. This means providing plenty of cuddles, fun playtime, and long walks, as well as maintaining their regular routines to make them feel comfortable and secure. I'm also skilled in caring for puppies and seniors, who often require extra attention. Whether it's training a new puppy or providing gentle care for an older dog, I'm dedicated to meeting their unique needs. You can be sure your dog will be in caring and capable hands with me. We're often available throughout the week, as my wife is a homemaker and homeschools our children. I'm usually home from work around 1:30 PM, so we're able to accommodate a wide range of schedules. We're also happy to help on weekends! Your dog will have a fantastic time with us! Our home features a fully fenced yard where they can play safely. We also have a friendly older Border Collie who loves to make new friends and keep them company. ​We're happy to accommodate your dog's specific needs. If they're crate-trained, we can absolutely continue that routine. We can also help with basic training and reinforce good manners. ​When it comes to meals, we believe in feeding only the best. We use high-quality dog food free of fillers and provide healthy, wholesome treats. We're also happy to give your dog a nice bath and take them for walks alongside our own. Your pup will be treated like a member of our family from the moment they arrive!

“My fur baby had a great experience. It’s not easy leaving your dog with someone but Chelsea and her family had my pup entertained and I even got some great pictures of my fur baby. Would recommend 10 out of 10 to anyone looking for someone they can trust to care for their animal.”

“Milo had a great time with Marcela. Marcela is a very kind and gentle person and Milo look an immediate liking to her. She look after Milo with great care since he is a 3 month old puppy. When he came home he was cheerful. Marcela was very prompt in picking him up and dropping him - I am surely going to continue Marcela’s services based on her availability. Thanks Marcela! From Milo and Jay!!”

“We were visiting from out of state and so happy to have found Gabby! She took good care of our baby and it was super convenient to enable us to see the sights in DC! We even had her watch our dog an additional day. Highly recommend her!”

“Benja is an amazong dog sitter! She sent photos and videos throughout the day. Ollie was an extremely gracious buddy for Lollipop throughout the day and very kind to share toys and play with her. My dog came back happy and tired. I would highly recommend Benja for any dog and will happily be leaving my dog with her and her wonderful family again!”

About: I was a dog mom to my Pomeranian mix Bear for 12 years. I have experience taking care of senior dogs especially with health conditions. I know and understand the importance to give senior dogs their medications and taking them on walks but also giving them space. I have taken care of puppies for my family and friends and followed their crate training, tricks, and food intake. I’ve been doing Rover for 6 months and have gained experience of caring different dog breeds with different personalities and special care. As of April 2024, I will be going to the office every Wednesday and working from home Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Fridays. I do have a flexible schedule to go on longer walks with your dog and follow specific feeding times. There are no pets in my home but I have enough space for your dog to roam around comfortably. I have space for their crate if needed.

“Jen is kind and caring about the dogs she sits. Her older dog and Bella do well together. So does the other dog who is also older than Bella. And she has enough indoor space and outdoors on deck and grass for the dogs to have variety in their surroundings. She also walks them 2 or 3 times a day, another plus. And her doggie healthy biscuits that she bakes has Bella begging for more!!”

“Elizabeth has watched our dog, Frankie, twice now and both experiences have been great! Her and her husband are lovely, well-organized, flexible, and easy-going. I've never had to worry about him while he's in their care. Frankie always comes back happy, exercised, and well-cared-for. They make drop offs and pick ups very quick and easy too. Highly recommend!”

“Telma and as great! My pup took to her immediately and was excited to see her daily. She provide updates and kept him active thru the day! Can't thank her enough, for coming through when I was in a bind”

About: Hi there! My family, neighbors, and friends have owned dogs as small as a chihuahua to as large as a lab, cats, rabbits, etc. and I have always been the person they called on! I have plenty experience administering medication, sticking to schedules/following directions, and sending updates! I understand how much trust goes into these decisions and I’m honored that you’re considering me. I would take care of your pet as if they were my own. I work largely from home (except Wednesdays) so I’m home and available to care for your furry family. I have flexibility Wednesday morning and afternoon if provided enough notice. I care for pets under the guidance of their parent. I ask for details about feeding, potty breaks, medication, preferred play, etc to make sure your pup is comfortable.

About: If I could do life all over again, I would be a veterinarian and run a shelter. I’ve had pets of all kinds my entire life and sometimes like them better than some people, if we’re being honest. 😉 I have volunteered and fostered for a well known local animal rescue for the past several years, taking in fosters and getting them ready for their forever home. I love nurturing dogs from being unsure and scared from shelter life, to being happy, loved and confident. I currently have 2 dogs, a senior Yorkie and a young GSD mix. They are my children, and yours will be too! I have had pets cross the rainbow bridge and it taught me a lot about senior care and medications, so you can feel confident with that as well. I’ve used Rover as a client and I give to my fur-families what I expected from my walkers/sitters - PEACE OF MIND knowing your baby is safe, happy, loved and spoiled. I work from home and have good flexibility with my schedule. My backyard is townhouse small. It's great for potty breaks, but not running around. We take several walks a day for exercise and enrichment. Safety and comfort are my top priorities, so please note that I do not consider pets without a full profile, temperament description, full vaccinations, vet information, etc. Also, my home has all hardwood floors, so dogs with a fear of them, probably wouldn't be very happy here. 😢 Lastly, I am unable to board (for overnight or daycare) any dog, puppies included, that is not FULLY house trained. I have my own consulting business and work from home full time. On occasion I'll have lunch meetings or errands to run, but never for more than a couple hours. I have a small fenced yard for potty breaks. My dogs are dog and people friendly, but will give signals and respect for personal space.

About: I’ve taken care of my German shepherd since he was 8 weeks old as well as my wife’s dog and our cat. I also have dog-sat for friends many times! I’ve also ‘fostered’ my friends’ pets while they are on deployments (4+ months at a time) I am here to cater to whatever your pet’s needs are, with lots of love and patience! I’m currently a college student while my wife works so I will have plenty of free time to look after your pet! I’m able to do multiple walks/day and spend time playing with them as much as they need! I have a fenced yard, lots of toys, and a very walkable neighborhood. For those of you ok with having other pets in the house, mine are super friendly and will love having another around!
