Dog Sitting Reston

“Caroline was very communicative and kind when taking care of my cat last minute. She provided photos, was on time, and easily accommodated my schedule for key handoff. I will absolutely book with Caroline again :)”

“Jake was great. He met with me prior to the booking to meet my cat Rex, followed all my instructions and in general provided a terrific service. Future customers can feel free to book with confidence.”

“Manasa is so sweet and thorough in caring for my babies! She asked questions before, during, and after to ensure all their needs (and mine) were met. She promptly notified me when they were not on their best behavior. The picture updated really provided me with a peace of mind and I’ve already booked her for my next pet care. Thank you again so much for everything!”

“Kayley was great with my sweet boy Bowtie. We really appreciate her taking care of him on such short notice. Thank you!”

About: I’ve had my own dog, Leo, since I was in 7th grade, so caring for and training dogs has been a big part of my life for over 9 years. I also participated in Guiding Eyes for the Blind during college, where I gained additional experience caring for and working with dogs. I’ve also dog-sat for friends and others throughout college. I recently moved to the area and would love to continue doing something I genuinely enjoy by providing loving, reliable care for your pets. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual personality and routine, and I’ll treat your pup like my own! I currently work hybrid, so I have a flexible schedule and can give your pup plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks and drop-ins during the week and have additional flexibility on weekends. I’m also happy to provide boarding and daycare depending on the dates. I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, and rest while following their normal routine as closely as possible. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Having cared for and trained my own dog for over 9 years, I understand how important it is to follow each dog’s individual routine and needs. My experience with Guiding Eyes for the Blind also taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and responsibility when caring for dogs. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and anything else your pet needs, while keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay.

“Christine took the best care of my two girl!! My cat Izzy requires extra medical care and Christine ensured Izzy was happy and healthy!! Christine is also very prompt and communicative. Highly recommend.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience of over 15 years in caring for dogs, alongside my commitment to their physical activity and nutritional well-being. I engage dogs in a variety of activities, such as hiking, backyard playtime, ensuring they are not only physically active but mentally stimulated. During inclement weather, I have numerous dog toys at home to keep them entertained and active indoors. Moreover, I have skills in administering medications such as pills and ear solutions, a requirement that may arise in caring for senior dogs or those with medical conditions. Perhaps what distinguishes me the most is my passion for making healthy dog treats from scratch. I firmly believe in providing dogs with nutritious and healthier food options, and this homemade approach is a testament to that. Additionally, I offer a beautiful, spacious home environment, surrounded by woods and walking trails, providing dogs with an extensive area for exploration and play. My approach to pet care combines both love and professional skills, ensuring your dog would be in the best possible hands. I currently work hybrid and very flexible with timings either late night or early morningsI So I have plenty of time to play with your pup! I also have two gorgeous English cream retriever dogs named Misty (6yrs) and Maya (2yrs) that are super duper calm, playful and very well behaved! I never leave pets un-attended even if it's fenced to make sure they are ok. My home has a beautiful walking trail right behind my backyard! I always make sure their water bowl is full and pay attention to the toys/chewables they put in their mouth so I can act quick in case they choke. If they feel sick, I keep them next to me all the time and they go on my office bed when I'm at work and totally open to taking the pet to the recommended veterinarian if needed and will be in communication with the owner at all times, I wouldn't mind being away from my work for few hours! I’d prefer all communications to be through Rover only and not exchange personal numbers/emails.

“Anna took great care of our kitty for the second time! She continues to be reliable and communicative! Our kitty is very particular and she loves Anna!”

About: I am on a short career break and looking to fill my days with some furry friends! I am only available through October 7 2026 for bookings before I start my new job. I have always been a dog lover and have lots of experience with doodles specifically but love all dogs. I have one pup (Lulu, 2 yr old 35lb mini Bernedoodle) that loves everyone and everything. Currently between jobs and at home most of the day! I am up and at it early during the week either on runs or at the gym. I have a small fenced in yard and live a few steps from 3 of the Reston trail entrances! I am very active and love to go on walks with my dog.

“First time using Rover and Erika made us feel right at ease. Detail oriented and willing to go the extra mile. We highly recommend her and will be requesting her services in the future.”

“Colleen did a great job sitting for my two cats while one of them was sick. She gave me helpful updates, sent nice pictures and was also able to administer medicine. I felt really at ease after the first visit seeing how she was updating me, would definitely recommend her!”

Sasha D.

“Kendall is a superb, very reliable, pet-loving care-taker, who was excellent in looking after our three furry friends. She went beyond to take care of them and to make sure they were fed, clean, loved and cuddled. We absolutely recommend Kendall and would book her anytime again! Thank you so much for your great help!”

About: Hi I’m Todd a recently retired professional looking to fill my schedule with caring for both dogs and cats. I have a very open schedule so no rushing off to an office or leaving your pet alone for long hours. I provide reliable, calm, and attentive care for dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. I am highly responsible, communicative, and ready to follow your pet's specific routine as needed. There are many paths around my house, which are great for walking dogs. I am not working so I am very flexible in terms of my schedule. I am usually available during most times of the day or even on short notice if needed. I live in a three level townhouse in Reston with a deck and a small backyard that backs to woods. I do not have any pets of my own, but several of my neighbors have pets.

About: Hello! I’m Catalina. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I love creating a mix of adventure and comfort for them, whether it’s a hike, a long walk, or a relaxing movie night afterwards. My building has a great dog park with lots of toys, so pups get plenty of space and stimulation. I’m available on weekends and always make sure every dog in my care feels safe, happy, and loved. Your baby will get lots of attention, playtime, and cuddles with me! IG: happ_ypawspetsitting I have availability in the afternoons and weekends. During the weekend I can spend the whole day with them and also at night or dog care. I don’t have dogs or cats in my home , so it will be easy if someone needs me to stay at my place with their dog/cat.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats intermittently since I was a child for the neighbors I babysit for. I love all animals and enjoy taking dogs on walks, spending time with them, and playing with them. I've watched puppies, adult dogs, guinea pigs, mice, and birds. As a full-time college student, I need the time away from school to reset. Pet care is the time I use to refresh from academia. Since my course load is relatively light this semester, I have plenty of time for pet care. For dogs, I take frequent time to play or just sit with them as they adjust to being away from their caretakers. For more energetic dogs, that may mean playing outside for long periods. For less energetic dogs, I often end up cuddling with them. For cats, I let them have their space and approach me as needed while I do my work. I am used to pets having specific and intricate care directions.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13, so I’ve had years of experience caring for animals and learning how to handle different personalities and needs. I’ve dog sat before and really enjoyed it—it made me realize how much I love being around animals. I love both dogs and cats, and I feel really comfortable caring for either. I’m a trustworthy, responsible person who takes pet care seriously, whether that means sticking to routines, going on walks, or just making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, not just “watching” them. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet care fits pretty easily into my routine. I’m flexible with my schedule, so I can plan around walks, feeding times, and whatever each pet needs day to day. I’m already someone who likes staying active and being out and about, so I don’t mind making time for drop-ins, walks, or longer stays. I’m good with sticking to routines and making sure pets get consistent care and attention while their owners are away. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and sticking closely to their normal routine, feeding, walks, meds if needed, and any specific instructions. I’m very mindful about safety, like making sure doors are locked, leashes are secure, and always keeping a close eye on pets. I treat every animal like my own, so I’m really attentive to their behavior and needs. I also respect the home I’m in and keep things clean and organized. Overall, I try to create a calm, safe environment where pets feel cared for while their owners are away.

About: I've grown up around animals my whole life. There were always at least two big dogs in our house, and I've been caring for friends' and neighbors' cats since high school. These days I share my home with a rescue cat of my own. I have years of experience with high-energy dogs who need a lot of exercise and with senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra care, and I'm just as comfortable with big, strong dogs as small ones. I treat every pet like my own and bring reliability and attention to detail to every stay. You'll get a clear routine, honest communication, and regular photo and video updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I follow your instructions on food, meds, and quirks, and I notice small changes in appetite or behavior worth flagging. I'm also very active, so energetic pups get the exercise they need. Long walks, runs, and real playtime are part of my day, and your dog will come home happy and tired. Puppies and kittens get patience and gentle, reward-based redirection, and older pets get a calm stay at their own pace. I'm happy to do a meet and greet before your trip. Your pet's safety and comfort come first. My schedule is very flexible, so I can easily work around pet visits and give your pet consistent, unhurried care. I'm available for morning, midday, and evening visits, which means I can stick to your pet's usual feeding, walk, and potty times instead of squeezing them in around a full workday. I'm also flexible on short notice and for last-minute changes to your plans. Pets are a natural part of my day. I'm active and outdoors a lot, so walks, runs, and playtime fit right into my routine, and there's no rushing out the door. If you're traveling or working long hours, you can count on me to show up on time, take the visit seriously, and send you an update so you know how it went. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to keep their day as close to normal as possible. Before the stay, I'll ask about feeding times, portions, medications, walk routines, favorite toys, and any quirks or fears, then stick to that routine so your pet feels settled. I'm happy to do a meet-and-greet first so we can all get comfortable. Dogs get plenty of exercise and attention, with walks, runs, and playtime built into every day, plus potty breaks on their usual schedule. Cats get a quiet, low-stress space, daily litter scooping, fresh water, and playtime and cuddles on their terms. I keep a close eye on appetite, energy, and bathroom habits, and I'll let you know right away if anything seems off. You'll get regular photo and video updates, so you can see your pet is happy and doing well.

“Awesome experience!!! My dogs loved her and she was very responsive and extremely attentive!!!!”

About: I have owned and cared for dogs all my life and love pets of all kinds. I currently have a 10-year old dog, so I am experienced with senior needs. I love going for long walks with furry friends and always make sure they get lots of play time. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to play with your dogs or cats. Need early morning, lunch break, or evening walks or drop-ins I'm there! I will work with the schedule you outline and ensure your pet is getting the attention and care they need. Busy walks, treats, feedings if needed, I can take care of it all.

About: Hiya! My name is Tyana, I’ve been working with animals since 2018 and haven’t stopped since. If your fur baby needs to be groomed while they’re enjoying their staycation you’re in luck! I’ve been grooming dogs of all shapes and sizes for over six years and have noticed a lot of pups do better on with a one-on-one environment and the conform of their own home. This would be something part time for me and a great way to help spread my awareness that there’s a local groomer in town I would love to build a relationship with my clients and their babies By giving them my undivided love, care and attention to support dogs with or without anxiety a ease of mind that everything is ok as grooming if necessary
