“Shelley was a great sitter. Last minute, a day before I needed a sitter, Shelley stepped up to help me. She has a house set up for the dogs she sits. Nice bed, toys and open space. Shelley also took my 5 month old Golden on 4 walks. That was awesome for active Golden Retriever.”


“Always happy to return. Jennifer does such a great job with our pups. They love going to play with her, and we love all the pictures she sends.”


About: As a small business owner, I have the flexibility to be home with your pet while you’re away. I live an active lifestyle, allowing for long walks and dog park trips if preferred! Home for the Summer with a flexible schedule! Located in the Town of Herndon, I walk everywhere and miss having a pup in tow to the farmers market and Jimmy’s. Apartment living with direct access to many trails and runs. I live a super active lifestyle allowing for long walks around town & dog parks if interested!

“Deeksha was great watching Lucy and collaborated with both me and my husband with drop-off and pick-up. Lucy got along great with her dog and she came home happy every day!”


About: Have a yorkie who is 18 (she is a family pet) and two pups of my own. My girls are rescues and inspired me to start rescuing elderly dogs. I have rescued 3 dogs and love all animals! Available all day, any day of the week. Feel free to contact me anytime. I am more than flexible and can make any schedule work. In addition to dogs, I’m also happy to help with cats, fish, hamsters, bunnies, birds, plants and anything else you may need! I will follow instructions on how to care for your pet. I will always abide by the golden rule. All pets are different and should be treated in their preferred manner.

“Maegan is great! Super responsive and flexible when I needed last-minute daycare. Piper loves being at Maegan's house. I highly recommend her!”


“Sajid was very nice and they took great care of Lulu. We left her there for a week while on vacation and he was always responsive and sent pics. Its always hard to leave our Lulu, but he made it easier! Thank you.”


“Harlie enjoyed her stay! This was our first time with Karen. We received many updates and pictures and Harlie went on walks and was kept busy during the day. Have already rebooked for a weekend stay!”


“Thankful for Renata for watching Zeus last minute and being able to accommodate my ever changing work schedule. She takes great care of my very senior dog, and I know he’s happy when he stays with her.”


“It was my first time dropping of my 14 week old Samoyed and I was so nervous! Tom is wonderful and very accommodating with the drop off/pick up times. More importantly, Enzo was a very happy camper and enjoyed his stay with Tom. Will definitely ask Tom to watch Enzo again!”



“Kiran and his dogs Mysti and Maya were great company for my 65 lb lab-pitt mix Dudley. Dudley would run to the door every morning waiting to go see them and return home in the evening satisfied and tired. Kiran is super friendly and considerate. I hurt my leg one evening, on my way home from work, and Kiran was kind enough to squeeze in one extra walk right before I retrieved Dudley to get him to poop so I wouldn’t have to with my bum leg. This is after he kept Dudley for a very long day. I highly recommend his services and am saving him to my « favorites » list. :) Thank you, Kiran!”

“Lisa is so attentive and a true animal lover through and through. My dog loves spending time with Lisa and her house/neighborhood is perfect for dogs. I can trust my pup is in good hands when she’s with Lisa!”


About: I’ve had a dog since I was 7 years old. Currently I own 2 Shiba Inu’s, a breed known for their stubbornness and independence. Despite this we still receive compliments on their behavior. I owe this success to my outlook on pet handling, allow them the space to be dogs, have fun and teach them alternative behaviors kindly when they misbehave. I work from home so I am able to take dogs multiple times a day on walks. Where I live has multiple wooded trails. Every day we do a 2 mile walk through the park near my house. I just got my youngest dog out of the teething stage so our home is mostly danger free, especially on things dogs could get in trouble chewing. We have wide open space inside during day.

“Melissa and Stella were perfect for my pup’s daycare needs. Lots of pictures and quick feedback when requested. Melissa was also great about asking for details during drop off. I’m looking forward to trusting her with my dog again!”


“Michele watched our dog Aspen for the day and was awesome! She and Aspen had a great time hanging out, going on walks, and riding in the car together. Michele was very communicative and sent us updates. We would highly recommend her!”


About: My heart is essentially a mosaic of all the dogs and cats I've cared for over the years. For over a decade, my life has been enriched and shaped by the boundless love of fur babies, each leaving an indelible paw print on my heart. My journey began with Oliver, my loyal companion, who has been by my side for ten incredible years. His unwavering presence has been a constant source of joy, teaching me the true essence of companionship and the unspoken language of love that exists between a pet and their caregiver. In this journey, I also had the privilege of loving Ali, a dog whose spirit and resilience taught me more about love, loss, and healing than I could have ever imagined. Though Ali has passed, his memory is a guiding light, reminding me of the depth of our bonds with our pets and the lasting impact they have on our lives. My experience extends far beyond Oliver and Ali. Over the years, I've opened my heart and home to countless dogs and cats, each with their own unique story and needs. From playful puppies to wise senior pets, I've had the honor of providing them with a safe, nurturing environment where they can thrive. My approach to pet care is rooted in understanding and empathy, recognizing that every animal deserves individualized attention and love. What sets me apart is not just my decade of experience, but the depth of my commitment to the well-being of every pet in my care. I specialize in catering to the special needs of both young and senior pets, whether it's training puppies with patience and positive reinforcement, or gently carrying older dogs outside when they need help to go potty. My home is a sanctuary where pets can feel secure, loved, and understood. I believe in creating a deep, lasting connection with each pet, ensuring they feel just as loved and cared for as they would in their own home. I am working remotely in IT which has afforded me a unique opportunity to blend my professional life with my vocation for pet care. This seamless integration means I can provide undivided attention and tailored care to each pet that comes into my home, ensuring they receive as much love and comfort as they do in their own homes. We have a fenced dog park and my dog Oliver can keep the your fur baby company during the day and we have very comfortable bean pet beds and bean bag they can rest well during the nights.

Harlie enjoyed her stay! This was our first time with Karen. We received many updates and pictures and Harlie went on walks and was kept busy during the day. Have already rebooked for a weekend stay!

Jennifer is caring and attentive and thoughtfully mediated my dog’s first interaction with cats. My dog was comfortable with her from the first minutes. She sent lots of pictures.

Carla and her entire family took really good care of Sake when she had to wear the cone to recover. She did a great job making sure Sake was safe, eating her breakfast/lunch, taking her pain meds on time and took her on short walks to protect the injured sutured back leg. Thank you for taking such great attention and care for Sake while she was recovering from her injury during doggie daycare. Sake will return soon when school starts.

Avery has been really helpful and very communicative and gave us periodic updates about our pet. We recommend her 100% whoever is looking for boarding

Melissa was amazing! She accepted my GSD puppy for doggy daycare last minute and gave her the best care possible. It was our first time meeting and using her services, and it couldn’t have gone better. She socialized her with other dogs and kids, took her on walks, and made sure she had everything she needed and more. My shy, slow-to-warm-up puppy felt safe and happy with her — and that means everything. Melissa is a kind, responsible, and truly loving caregiver. Highly recommend!

Kiran took excellent care of Rusty during my visit to Virginia. Rusty was always happy when I pick him up. Kiran used to update me with photos and videos during the day and I really appreciated that. I would definitely use Kiran again when I come to Virginia again

Sajid took good care of Rusty during my visit to Virginia. Rusty is always happy when I pick him up. Sajid was always updating me about Rusty during the day with photos. I really liked him and I will definitely use him again on my next visit to the area

Renata was just who we needed. We were in town for grandson's graduation. Renata was so helpful. She was great with Rocky and we really appreciated knowing he was safe and being well cared for. We will definitely be using her again when we come back to town to visit family.

We've left our dog with this family 3 times in a month. 2 times for boarding and 1 time for daycare. It was amazing!!!! Tilly had a blast playing with the other pups, especially Hudson, and whenever we drove up to the house Tilly went bonkers with excitement. They were very sweet and accommodating and they welcomed Tilly into their family. 5 stars and TOTALLY recommend. WE WILL BE BACK!! :)

It’s our first time sending Dusty to day care, Michelle really took good care of him. She sent updates on text which felt very relieved.

Melissa was so patient and sweet with our energetic 3 year old terrier mix pup, mischievous 60 pound husky and our long haired cat. She swooped in to save the day when another sitter cancelled last minute. She house sat overnight and left our home clean and well cared for and our fur babies were happy and clean when she left.

Desiree was absolutely amazing. She was so kind and gentle with both me and my baby Marley. She sent me updates with pictures that really helped me to be at ease. I would certainly recommend her and will be utilizing her services in the future.

Mikaela was great to work with! I was coming in from out of town to visit family and last minute had to find a sitter. I was really stressed and she quickly responded and kept my shepherd/malinois mix for a few hours in her home. He was cared for, fed and let out. She was very communicative too.

Wonderful with Lulu, flexible as needed (I had to change hours here and there), and patient with Lulu at the beginning when he was nervous. Highly recommended!

Cheryl and I met for a meet and greet last month prior to Sake's first dog sitting day with her this March. Our pups got along quite well at the dog park. However, when we did have the first doggie daycare scheduled last week, we had a misunderstanding on the start date. However, we both communicated and worked out the kinks to restart the clock this week. Overall, Sake enjoyed her playmate Una all day long. They went to the dog park, played well inside the home, napped together and got a pup cup. I got many photos, messages and alerts on what Sake was doing throughout the day. I was hoping to book Cheryl for the rest of March and part of April, but unfortunately, she canceled all my bookings due to unforeseen circumstances. I wish Cheryl well and hope that everything gets better throughout the springtime. Thank you for giving Sake the opportunity to make a new friend, Una. Maybe, we could have a playdate soon. She will miss you two. Please take care of yourself.
