Pet Sitting in Reston

About: Greeting, My name is Helen. I’ve recently completed my contract in the military. During my time in the service I spent time caring for my colleagues dogs (I do love cats, but I’m allergic) and found myself actually branching out to others when they needed someone to watch their babies. I grew up always having a dog in our family, and know how important they are as family members. Their unconditional love is something I’ve always cherished, and it would be my joy and honor to care for your fur babies whenever. My schedule is flexible, and I am available often. It’s really not a hardship spending time with loving pups. I do have experience with pets that have special needs. I look forward to hearing from you and your fur members.

“Nikki stayed with Lucy for several hours and took her on a nice walk. She also provided me with updates and pictures. Lucy can be high energy but Nikki handled her well”

About: (TWO PEOPLE USING ACCOUNT ME AND MY BF) We both been taking care of our own animals and family members since the age of 9, I love animals with a passion and I will spoil them with affection care and maybe a few treats <3 My pet care has seamlessly become an integral part of my daily routine since childhood. As a pet enthusiast, I dedicate ample time and attention to nurture and care for our furry companions. Each morning, I wake up eager to tend to their needs, starting with feeding and providing fresh water. Throughout the day, I incorporate playtime and interactive sessions to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. During midday lulls, I set aside moments to engage in bonding activities, ensuring they feel loved and cherished. Evenings are dedicated to additional play, grooming, and relaxation, allowing our pets to unwind. By creating a structured routine, I maintain consistency in their care, which in turn fosters a strong and trusting relationship with our beloved pets. Without the confines of a job, I cherish the privilege to spend quality time with our furry friends, providing them with all the care and attention they deserve.

“Samantha was a quick study, efficient, kind, and was able to touch my skittish cat at first meeting! I was so worried but she took my worries away and was so happy to get her reassuring words and pic while I was away. I was also happy to learn Sam is a local which provided even more assurance and even though I live a ways out she was willing to travel to me where others I contacted all said I was out of their area. I really liked her and my kitty Jack did as well, straightforward and got the job done. Thanks Sam, you were a life saver!”

About: I’ve been taking care of friends and families dogs since I was 16 years old. I have had my own dogs my whole life. My current dog is a 9 year old German Shepherd named Nala. I have had her since she was 6 weeks. My fiancé and I have had many family friends leave their puppies with us for a week or so and we potty train them! I am a full time grad student at USC (virtually) and I currently work from home part time. I am very active, I work out 5-6 days a week, therefore, long walks excite me for some cardio! I will follow ALL directions that are provided. If a dog needs to be crated, left in a specific room, bowls filled, medications provided, toys in reach, anything that is asked of me I will make sure to do it as the comfort and safety of the dog is my first and only priority. I will stop on walks to provide breaks, water, treats, etc. I will follow all direction re interaction with other animals, walking route, picture updates, etc.

About: I have been an animal lover since I was born! I grew up on a farm that included all farm animals; mainly horses, dogs, and cats. I’ve had many years of experience with training, and proper pet care! I currently work from home and I have plenty of time throughout the day for pet sitting! I’m available 24/7 I enjoy walks, and nature so I spend a lot of time outside. I have a large fenced yard, fit for animals. We have a loving friendly 7 year old hound dog named Copper. We live in a safe quiet neighborhood close to trails and parks.

“Sadie is very caring for our fur-baby and is great at asking questions and getting to know everything about our pup. We look forward to having her watch our girl more in the future.”

“Hannah is always a delight. Our pups absolutely adore her and our kitty also likes her very much (our kitty doesn’t like most people). We love Hannah and she is always wonderful to our babes.❤️”

“Larraine kindly stepped in to help us at very short notice. Our cats were very happy to see us on our return, but we knew they’d been cared for while we were away with a lot of love and attention!”

About: I absolutely love dogs ! They truly are man’s best friend till the end. I have two dogs of my own , whom I love very much ! I have experience in dog sitting as well as dog walking and I am passionate about providing good care and excited to meet new pups! I fit pet care into my day/week routine because I have two dogs of my own. One is a pit bull and another is a boarder collie so to say they need care is an understatement. They have the upmost energy. I will play with them and wear them out so they get a good nights sleep. With that being said we walk, hike, run, go to the beach, play fetch , etc. as much as we can. I treat my puppies very kindly , if not they’re quite spoiled. 😉 I care very deeply about animals and I aim to help when I can !
