About: What sets me apart is real, hands-on experience. I’ve raised animals my entire life and have cared for dogs across a wide range of ages, temperaments, and health needs. I’m comfortable with energetic puppies who need patience and structure, as well as senior or sick dogs who require extra attention, gentle handling, and consistency. I pay close attention to instructions, routines, and small details, especially when a dog needs special care. I stay calm, reliable, and observant, which helps dogs feel safe and owners feel confident while they’re away. My goal is simple: show up on time, follow directions closely, and make sure each dog is cared for as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m currently working on my business, which means I’m home most of the day with my own dog and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets consistent attention, timely walks, and dependable drop-in care throughout the day. Because I’m not tied to a strict 9–5 schedule, I can accommodate regular visits, mid-day walks, and last-minute needs when they come up. Caring for animals is already part of my daily life, so adding additional pets into my routine is seamless and never rushed. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on consistency, comfort, and following the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Pets always have access to fresh water, are fed according to instructions, and are given plenty of attention throughout each visit. My home environment is quiet, calm, and cozy, with large open areas where dogs can move around and play comfortably, including indoor space during bad weather. I make sure pets get appropriate exercise, playtime, and rest based on their age, energy level, and health needs. In a client’s home, I respect their space and carefully follow any care instructions provided, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and specific routines. My priority is always making sure pets feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away.

“Kaitlin took great care of our dogs! We were able to enjoy a dog-free afternoon on Whiskey Row knowing our girls were in good hands. Would definitely book again if we’re in the area!”

“Aspen was really fantastic with my 2 dogs during their week long daycare stays. She even sat patiently with my old dog to ensure all of the lunch was eaten. I also enjoyed the daily pictures she sent!”

“Catherine was great! She took our dog Clio for daycare super last minute and sent us pictures throughout the day. Clio came home tired and happy!”

“Breanna is great! We left our pup for daycare, she played, relaxed, and went on a walk. Breanna was very responsive and provided great updates. We would absolutely leave our pup with her again.”

About: Hi! I cannot wait to get to know your pet! Learning their routines, behaviors, and boundaries helps me ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. Making sure you return to exercised, well behaved, and happy pets is the always the priority. During inclement weather, I provide safe outdoor potty breaks, with indoor play like puzzles and scavenger hunts. Ensuring they're still getting to work out their energy and your money is well spent. I'm happy to help figure out which service is best for you and your pet. Please reach out with any questions. And I'm happy to set up a meet and greet so that I'm available to help out at a moments notice. I make my living providing pet care and housekeeping. Remember sleep away camp when you were a kid? Or that one really cool babysitter? That's what your pet's time with me will be like. Your vacation is also their vacation. Whether at your home or my own, walks, or drop-in visits, I provide regular updates and so many cute photos to help assure that they're in good hands. My home has a large, fenced in backyard for all the desired romps and squirrel chasing. I live in a beautiful, easily walkable neighborhood; which is great for multiple daily adventures, stopping to smell all the smells and learn safe social skills. Whether at my home or your own, I'd like to know what your pet's current routines are, and any anxieties you or they might have. I appreciate the trust and responsibility I've been given while taking care of your loved ones and home.

“Christina was incredibly accommodating, and took excellent care of Lillian, who was a little stressed over being someplace new for the first time. Wish I lived in the area so I could book her again; Christina was excellent and communicates well (and sent photos during the stay, which was a bonus!)”

“Leslie was so wonderful with my wilson! She sent lots of pictures, even took him to a park when it was nice out. She followed the directions for feeding and gave him lots of snuggles ❤️”

About: We love dogs of all types and we understand that it is tough letting them out of your sight for even 1 night, so be assured that they will be well taken care of with walks and of course play time!! We are a professional couple who have very flexible schedules and a 5 year old Pug who just loves to meet new friends! We have both been dog owners our entire lives. My wife's family bred champion Weimaraner's when she was growing up and our first dog had medical issues (seizures) so we are adept with dogs that have to take medications. We live right next to Huntley Meadows park, the largest park operated by the Fairfax County Park Authority, and we enjoy walking our dog there all four seasons! The last picture in our profile is from one such walk.

“Max is awesome. Kept me informed daily of Etta’s day. He clearly loves dogs!! He is gentle and kind to my baby. She liked him right away. He even wrote a poem about her!! Just loved everything about this experience 💕”

“Myrna is amazing! Derby was relaxed and accepting of her from the moment they met. She sent pics and assured us that he was doing great! (Derby has some serious separation issues)”

“Caroline was great and easy to communicate with. Our dog enjoyed his time and even went back to tell her bye before getting in the car.”

“Absolutely some of the best caretaking Charlie has had! Lori was great with Charlie. We met beforehand with her sweet pup to make sure the dogs would get along, and I really appreciated her thoroughness and quick communication. During his stay, Charlie got to run around and play with other dogs at her home and her family’s farm, but also had time to rest and relax. He was such a happy boy when we picked him up and slept the whole way home! 10/10 would recommend Lori!!”

About: I’ve always been the one friends and family when they need someone to love and care for their pets—and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Spending time with animals is something that genuinely makes me happy. I currently don’t have a dog of my own, which means I have plenty of extra love, attention, and energy to give to yours. Lots of Free Time, with a Flexible Schedule I work part-time, which gives me the best of both worlds—structure and plenty of free time. My flexible schedule allows me to be available for your pup throughout the day, during evenings, and even at those odd or last-minute hours. Whether you need regular walks, drop-ins, or overnight care, I have the time and commitment to make sure your dog feels cared for and never rushed. My Care Style Your dog’s comfort and happiness always come first. When they’re with me, they’re treated like part of the family—lots of cuddles, playtime, and attention included. I’m happy to follow your routines and preferences so your pup feels right at home, no matter where they are. Special Requests Every dog has their own quirks, routines, and favorite things. Please share any special requests or details about your dog ahead of time—I love learning what makes each pet unique and will do my best to keep their days feeling familiar and full of love. I’m currently working part time with a very flexible schedule so I will have plenty of time to care for your pup even at the odd hours. With my flexible schedule you can rely on me to be there even in the tight times. Your fur baby will get plenty of love in my home between me and my friendly cat, Ambrose. I will usually let them roam free around the apartment and on my furniture unless otherwise noted. Basically, you tell me what it is you need from me at my home or yours and I will make it happen.

About: I’ve taken care of animals my entire life! I have 2 cats of my own—both rescues! I love them with everything in me! I worked in animal hospitals as a vet tech for over 4 years as well as volunteering at Second Chances Wildlife Center. I’m very skilled at injections, administering medication, nail trims, giving fluids, whatever you need. I have exotic experience as well. I’ve worked with Avians, reptiles, rodents, all the above 💖 I currently work from home as a content creator designing clothes and editing videos for social media so I can work anywhere. I stay home with my pets all day everyday unless I’m at my part time gardening job :) Animals are always 100% my top priority. I strive to make sure they are always happy and healthy! I don’t want to disrupt their routine in any way. I want the pets I watch to be comfortable and stress free!
