Dog Walking Reston

“Keila was so amazing and patient with Ollie ! She went above and beyond to make sure Ollie was comfortable with her and he’s always tired after their walks. Highly recommend!”

“Francisco is an outstanding dog walker! He consistently goes above and beyond to make sure our dog is well cared for. After every walk, he communicates with me and provides thoughtful updates about how everything went, including anything he noticed that I should be aware of. What really stood out to me was his attention to detail and genuine care. During our last walk, it started raining, and he reached out to ask where he could find a towel so he could dry our dog off before leaving. That level of thoughtfulness meant a lot to me and showed how much he truly cares about the pets he looks after. I highly recommend Francisco to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog walker. Your pet will be in great hands!”

“We are so blessed that we found Rachel. She has been extremely wonderful since the meet and greet. Her genuine care, patience and understanding towards Kyoshi are commendable. She took the time to get to know Kyoshi and she was very attentive as we discussed Kyoshi’s behavior and the commands to correct it or divert his attention. Further, she went above and beyond by teaching Kyoshi more commands such as paw in addition to reinforcing the commands Kyoshi and I are working on. She also has an exceptional communication skill from giving updates or giving advance notices when circumstances occurs. She is empathetic and would be more than happy to accommodate and assist. She will definitely positively touch the lives of people and pets that she will meet. Best of luck with her future endeavors! Kyoshi and I and sincerely grateful! 💕”

“Great service, very communicative. Gave prompt updates and pictures of my dog along the way. Would not hesitate to use again. Mr. Peanut and I are satisfied.”

“Todd was always on time for the walks and our dogs were always happy to see him. We would recommend him to anyone that needs a reliable dog walker!”

Randy T.

“Shauna is great! She walks our (very energetic) dog weekly. She is responsive, flexible and always on time. Our dog (Kyla) is skid-dish with new people but she warmed up to Shauna very quickly and is always excited to see her. Kyla comes back from her walks happy and tired - well worth it!”

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.

“Taking good care of my dog! Your communication was excellent, and my doggie seemed very happy!”

“Kiran is great! He was super flexible with our last minute request for 2 walks. My pups seemed to enjoy their time with him and I received beautiful pictures of them. We will definitely book more services with Kiran.”

About: I currently work at a dog rescue. I volunteered as a dog washer at the humane society for a year. I pet sat relatives dogs in their home. I know how to respect dogs boundaries. Right now my schedule is somewhat flexible. I am available weekdays and weekends. I am unavailable on Monday, Tuesday and Friday from 4pm to 730pm. I am respectful of everyone’s home and treat it how I’d want a pet sitter to treat my own. I know the signs to take it slow with dogs and cats.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with two dogs and a cat, and I’m now a proud cat mom myself, so I understand how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your pets. Throughout high school, I regularly pet sat for family and clients, including one repeat client with four small dogs and a cat who trusted me with their pets multiple times. On one occasion, I even cared for seven dogs at once, including larger breeds, so I’m comfortable handling both energetic pups and pets with different personalities and needs. I took a break from pet sitting while finishing college, but now that I’m a recent graduate, I’m so excited to get back to doing something I genuinely enjoy: spending time with adorable pets and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while their humans are away. Whether your pet is playful, shy, cuddly, super energetic, or just wants a calm companion around, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. As a recent college graduate working part time, I have a fairly flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to pet care throughout the week. My weekday shifts are typically in the mornings, which often leaves my afternoons and evenings open, and my schedule tends to be especially flexible Tuesday through Thursday. Weekend availability can vary depending on my work schedule, but I do my best to be accommodating and communicate clearly about availability. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I already care for my own cat and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine are always my top priorities. I know that many pets feel happiest in their own familiar environment, so I am especially happy to provide care in your home through drop in visits, walks, or house sitting where they can stay comfortable and stick to their normal routine. I take the time to follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions if needed, and any household rules you have in place. I also understand how important trust is when someone is caring for both your pets and your home, and I will always treat both with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

About: I’ve fostered five dogs over the years and currently have two dogs of my own, so I’m used to different personalities, routines, and energy levels. Fostering taught me how important it is to pay attention to the little things, especially when a pet is getting comfortable with someone new. I’m also pet first aid certified, which gives me an extra layer of confidence when it comes to safety and knowing what to watch for during walks and visits. I’m very routine-focused and will follow your instructions closely, whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, crate routines, or medication. You’ll probably get more photos than you asked for, plus a quick update on how everything went. I primarily care for small dogs and also offer cat drop-ins. I especially enjoy helping during busy travel periods, including Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s, when having someone dependable nearby can make being away from home a lot less stressful. My goal is simple: keep your pet’s day feeling familiar, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home full time and I’m an early riser, so I have good flexibility for local walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I’m typically available: - Early mornings - Lunchtime - After work - Weekends I keep my service area intentionally small so I can stay reliable, arrive on time, and give each visit my full attention. I also plan to open additional availability around Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s for families who are traveling. I’m pretty detail-oriented when it comes to pet care, especially with the little things that keep a visit safe and stress-free. For first-time dog clients, I usually like to do a quick meet-and-greet so I can learn your pet’s routine, walking setup, feeding instructions, and anything I should know before the first visit. During walks and drop-ins, I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, harnesses, and anything your pet might be tempted to get into. I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep their routine as familiar as possible. I’m also pet first aid certified, and if I notice anything unusual with your pet or in your home, I’ll let you know right away.

“On time and treated my baby great!”

About: I provide thoughtful, home-based care for dogs who thrive in a calm and structured environment. As a work-from-home sitter, I’m able to give consistent attention, supervision, and a steady routine throughout the day. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs with different energy levels and temperaments, and I pay close attention to their behavior, comfort, and safety. What sets me apart is that I keep things intentionally small and controlled. I take the time to understand each dog’s needs, and prioritize a low-stress experience with plenty of outdoor time, gentle structure, and a secure fenced yard. I also require a meet-and-greet to ensure the right fit, so every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and well looked after.I keep my care intentionally small so each dog gets consistent attention and a calm environment. Doggy care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and am able to provide consistent supervision and companionship throughout the day.Dogs in my care are part of a calm, structured routine that includes regular outdoor time in my fenced yard, walks on nearby trails ( My fenced backyard opens directly to walking trails for easy access to outdoor time and walks) along with plenty of time to rest and relax indoors. I build my schedule around the dogs I’m caring for, making sure they get a good balance of activity, attention, and downtime. On a weekly basis, I keep things predictable and low-stress, which helps dogs settle in comfortably. I’m mindful about not overbooking, so each dog receives the time and attention they need without feeling overwhelmed. Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, their care and routine remain consistent so they feel safe and at ease... When pets stay in my home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow each dog’s feeding schedule, potty routine, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. Dogs have regular access to my fenced yard for bathroom breaks and outdoor time, along with walks on nearby trails depending on their energy level. Inside the home, dogs are given a calm space to relax and are never left unsupervised for long periods since I work from home. I introduce dogs thoughtfully and only take on a small number at a time to maintain a safe and low-stress environment. I also pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and overall comfort, and I communicate with owners if anything seems off. My goal is to make their stay feel predictable, safe, and as close to their home routine as possible.

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.

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! 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.

“Michelle once again came through in a crunch. I was held up at work and she was willing to take care of my pup at the last minute. As always, she did a phenomenal job!”

About: Pets have been a big part of my life, and I know the difference between a pet who is just being watched and one who is truly cared for. I currently share my home with a cat, so daily care is second nature to me: feeding on schedule, fresh water, clean litter boxes, and the small routines cats count on.Especially Anxious (i know when your gargoyle wants to lurk-and when the rubs are needed. I’ve had two dogs, and both taught me a lot. My first, Ed, was an 80-pound American Foxhound rescued as a suspected abandoned hunting dog who had never lived indoors. Together we worked through house training, leash manners (no more yanking), a fear of stairs (which involved carrying him up three flights until he stopped being scared), and a distaste for rain. His name was not what he was rescued with, but he was clearly always an Ed. With my second dog, Kovu, I spent a lot of time on socialization with other dogs and on keeping him calm and quiet when left alone. Because of that, I’m patient with nervous, rigid, big dogs, and dogs still learning the rules. I know that consistency and a calm presence go a long way. All Creatures Welcome! Friends have long turned to me for help with their pets, whether furry, scaly, feathered, or creepy-crawly. I’m happy to talk through any pet’s needs, so ask me about yours. I’d love to meet you and your pet before booking. Send me a message and tell me about them! I am a remote worker with a need for reliable wifi more than happy to drop-in, sleepover, or sit for a while with my laptop on your couch. Clear updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away Strict adherence to your pet’s feeding, medication, and walking routines A calm, patient approach tailored to your pet’s personality

“Vinnie takes great care of my pups. He always sends pictures while walking my dogs, and is attentive and knowledgeable about the care of my dogs. I trust him 100% with Gemma and Forest.”
