Doggy Day Care in Potomac Mills

“My dog and I just moved to a new area so I was anxious about finding someone to watch him while we get settled. Jennifer and Justin were so kind and sent me plenty of photos throughout the day. They even very kindly washed his bowl after he ate his food. My dog had an amazing time and I would trust them to watch him again”

About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a gentler pace. I’ve owned breeds with bold personalities, including my current Airedale Terrier, Elvis, who definitely keeps things lively. My Scottish Terrier, Scarlett, was one of the best dogs I’ve ever had—loyal, loving, and full of charm. While I don’t offer in-home boarding due to having young children, I specialize in reliable drop-in visits and dog walks. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, a walk to burn off some energy, or some companionship while you're away, I provide thoughtful, personalized care tailored to their needs. I’m calm, patient, and tuned in to what each dog needs to feel safe and happy. I treat every pet like family and always provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a pet owner myself, I’m already used to structured walks, feeding schedules, and giving dogs the attention and exercise they need throughout the day. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan visits and walks. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and their environment calm and comfortable. I understand that dogs feel most secure in familiar surroundings, so I follow your instructions closely to make sure things like feeding, walks, and playtime happen just the way your pet expects. I always check that doors and gates are secure, make sure your pet has fresh water, and keep a close eye on their behavior and energy during each visit. Whether it’s a slow-paced walk for a senior dog or a game of fetch in the yard, I take the time to meet your pet’s specific needs. Trust and communication are important to me. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you are away.

“Dana is always willing and able to take care of my pup! Their home is filled with tons of love and kindness and we’re going to keep coming back!!!”

“Nancy took such good care of Jasper! My sweet dog is a rescue, and can have pretty severe separation anxiety while I'm away. I was in town for a wedding, and wanted to know that Jasper was well cared for and had someone to hang out with all day. Nancy understood exactly what Jasper needed, and I returned to a happy and relaxed dog. I will definitely book with Nancy again next time we're in town.”

“My dog had a wonderful time with Erin and Guiness! He's apprehensive when meeting new dogs and new people, and Erin was wonderful about being patient with him and letting him warm up to her and to Guiness in his own time. Erin sent lots of photos so I could see how he was doing. I will definitely be choosing Erin for my future dog care needs!”

About: I have had a passion and love for taking care of pets since I was a little girl. In my adult life, I still carry on this passion greatly. In the last 20 years, I have a puppy who 2 years old. She is so well behaved and loves playing with other dogs! Because of this, I have a lot of understanding with dogs and their natural behaviors! I have also had some experience taking care of pets for my friends and family! It’s safe to say that you can call me the dog whisperer. I am currently a teacher working from home. Therefore, I am pretty much available everyday to take care of your precious doggies. I am very flexible! During the covid 19 pandemic, my family and I are being very cautious, following social distancing guidelines and taking all the necessary precautions to ensure health and safety! I have a large fenced backyard where your dog can play, two individual crates if the dog needs to be crated, and my wonderful 2 year old dog to keep your furry friend company! I take our pup for a walk at least twice a day. Therefore, if your doggy needs a walk we can surely take them. Taking care of pets is a natural thing for me. I can always find time to take care of them. I plans ahead of time to fit the next day to accommodate my chores, work and pets needs. I make sure to always watch the dogs that I watch and supervise play, as well as make sure they receive all the attention and care that they need. I will treat your furry friend like a family member!

“I need someone last minute to take care of my dog due to work schedule and Penjulee came through quick! She responded fast, accepted my care, and I paid right away. She kept me updated and sent me pics and videos of my dog. I appreciated her very much for taking good care of my big boy. Would definitely recommend!!”

Erika R.

“Mila was outstanding! My dog was recently brought home from a shelter and Mila was not only kind and understanding but my dog didn't even want to leave her when it was time to come home. She took plenty of pics so I knew the dog was okay and her timeliness is out of this world!!! She did pickups and drop offs on time and had great communication the whole time. We will definitely book her again!”

About: My fiancé and I have been taking care of our family pets and pet-sitting for neighbors since we were kids! I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets from fish to rodents to cats to corgis to german shepherds and more! Currently, we are in the process of training a service dog and raising our cat mandy. When I was in high school, I also worked at a doggy daycare/boarding facility and learned a lot about pet care there. We are excited to meet and take care of your fur babies! I currently work part time so we are able to take care of your pets whenever they need throughout the day! We have a dog of our own, so they can have a playmate and we have a big yard for them to run around in. At our home, we have a large fenced in yard for pups to play, as well as lots of toys and treats. At your home, we will be sure to follow any and all instructions you provide for taking care of your pet as well as your home!

“Maria is awesome! This was my second time leaving my pup with her. I texted her with an emergency at night requesting day care for the very next day with a 7am drop off. She answered very quickly and was super accommodating.”

She is a very loving and caring person, Renee took Max on daily walks (which he loves) and she sent me many messages and pictures (which I loved). I would definitely recommend Renee to others. I found a great sitter and Max made a new friend (Toby).”

About: Hi i’m Gairie! I’ve been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember, I’ve taken care of a variety of ages and sizes and breeds of dogs. and i’m looking forward to giving your furry friends the most fun and comfortable time while you’re away!!!

About: Hello, my name is Jackie, I am 39 years old, I recently moved to the Woodbridge area and I am currently studying pre-med at Nvcc. I am quite passionate about animal rights and animal welfare! I have spent time in the past volunteering at the Alexandria Animal Welfare League, and I have loved being around animals all my life. I have also worked as a long term foster for TRU Rescue in Maryland. My very first job was starting a dog walking business at just 9 years old. Since then I have owned quite a few of my own pets including many dogs. I have experience taking care of puppies and older dogs. I love spending time going on walks outside every day as a part of my meditation practice, and I’d love to include some more fuzzy friends along with me while I walk. I also really enjoy having the dogs with me inside for cool down/chill sessions afterward while I study and listen to healing tones as I work! I have 2 very small chihuahua dogs living with me at the moment, one is 6lbs and one is 7lbs. I am currently taking off work to focus on my studies. I have flexibility to make time for walks and playtime for any animals in my care. I am available for dog walking within the Woodbridge area. Please message me to work out details on possible distance I will travel. Dog boarding is possible after a meet and greet establishes that your dog gets along ok with my two little ones. They do well with dogs that are not too hyper or are not too young. Male dogs must be fixed.

About: I've been pet sitting and caring for animals of all types - dogs, cats, and horses - since I was 15 years old. I have had Louie, my German Shepherd, since he was a puppy and trained him myself to be a (mostly) obedient, friendly giant. I adopted my senior German Shepherd, Wolf, when he was 8 years old and have endless patience for pups that tend to have a mind of their own! Happy to work with pups and cats of any size! My schedule is currently very flexible. Chances are, if I'm not available, I can adjust my schedule to ensure your fur family is well taken care of. I have a fenced-in yard and two pups that would be the perfect playmates for your medium (35+ lb) and large pups. They have plenty of space to run around and are always happy to have new friends to play with!
