House Sitting Shenandoah Junction

“Teri was a wonderful sitter for my dog Maddie while I was away for the weekend. She stayed with Maddie overnight, which was especially important because Maddie really needs someone with her at night. Teri kept me updated every day with photos and messages. Gave Maddie her medicine when she was supposed too. I would definitely use Teri again to care for Maddie, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter.”

“Liz was absolutely fabulous with our (very large!) golden, Cutiepie! While I was initially nervous with our very first petsitter/housesitter, I ended up ecstatic that we had such a lovely person to play with and care for Cutie and look after our home while we were out of town. We received regular photo and text updates, and I was quickly notified about any questions she might have about Cutie's needs. Liz herself has such a wonderful, friendly, and easy going manner about her as well; I felt immediately comfortable with her in my home and with my dog (who has now adopted Liz as her BFF and already misses her!). House was tidy when we returned and Cutie was happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I'll definitely be booking Liz again next time we need to leave Cutie at home alone! Thank you Liz for being the perfect companion to Cutie while we were away! Couldn't have asked for a better petsitter! <3”

About: Hi, I'm restarting my animal care business. I want to ensure a stimulated experience with a swift pace and consistent disciplined walking style of what I like to refer to as "nose to toes," where the dogs stay no further than my toe, to my sides, or behind me. I also have experience with aggressive dog behavior, so if a single walk is necessary, I can do that. I have been in the animal care business for as long as I can remember, and I know Fairlington very well since I grew up here. I now live in Harper's Ferry in West Virginia. I will be able to track my walks with a phone app that will track your dog's walking pace, distance traveled, and the route we take. I usually do pack walks of 3-5 dogs depending on size, but I can do singles if needed. I'm also able to cat-sit/dog-sit and care for exotics and birds (no insects). I'm flexible because I have my own cleaning/organizing/declutter business. I wake up however early dog might need be let out or pet given meds, and give at least 3 long 30min-hour walks depending on the energy level and few let outs throught the day if needed for young pups or older if bladder is sensitive. Plenty of loves and can work on training or stimulated play time with toys and puzzles. I will be professional and not have any guests over ever, and always keep doors locked when not there and if plants need care I can help with watering. I have 4 animals myself so it's pretty automatic to just add another pet cuz I've cared for multiple animals at a time or drop in visits when needed throughout my day. Whatever the fmaily requests for schedule when to feed, medicate(if needed), amount of walks and play time needed to make sure they're healthy and stimulated. Whenever they're ready for bed, crate if needed requested by parents, and make sure they go outside(dogs) to ensure no accidents throughout the night. I give them just as much love and attention and play as my own. And feed round same schedule unless instructed otherwise. Giving exercise and play time when needed. And kept to routine of crating if owners instruct.

“Day was very attentive and thorough. She was able to fit me in last minute, and my dogs loved her. She updated me everyday. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”

About: I don't think I've ever not had a dog! I have taken care of dogs of all ages and backgrounds growing up not only did I dog sit for friends and family, but my family fostered rescue dogs for the mid-atlantic german shorthair pointer rescue. I have some rudimentary puppy training knowledge, and I’m very comfortable around puppies! I am well versed in senior dog care including administering medications. I also have experience in dogs that have some mild to medium temperament issues from working with rescue dogs and my past dog sitting experience. I am an early bird so it would be easy for me to cater a short commute to school or fit in some morning exercise for your pup. I am a college student who has class every day during the week, from mid-morning the earliest being nine thirty and ending early in the afternoon two o'clock at the latest. I am very active and I often go for runs/walks in the evening and I would love to have a dog along come with me! At home I have two very active dogs and I have had very high energy dogs my entire life at home. I’m always throwing a dog toy either into the pool or a ball in the yard. I treat all of my clients dogs like my own! Even if it's just for a quick visit or a walk!

About: I have a deep passion for working with animals and caring for them. With several years of experience handling dogs of all shapes and sizes, as well as cats and farm animals, I am well-equipped to manage various temperaments and administer medications as needed. I am certified in fear-free training and handling for both cats and dogs, and I am currently pursuing a degree in animal behavior. With over four years of experience in pet sitting, I am reliable and incredibly caring, ensuring your animals receive the best possible care. I also love to hike and be outdoors, and I am very flexible when it comes to walks, making every outing enjoyable for your pets. I recently moved to Kailua after spending two years on the Big Island working at animal sanctuaries. Being around animals is truly where I’m happiest, and I’m excited to offer reliable, loving care to pets in the Kailua area. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. At your home, I prioritize safety by adhering to all guidelines provided by my clients and meeting all pet care requirements. I am certified in fear-free techniques and have three years of training and handling experience with cats, seniors, puppies, and special needs dogs. You can trust that your pets will receive compassionate and attentive care tailored to their individual needs.

“Adriene sent me pictures and videos throughout the stay. Communication was frequent and clear and my Sophie was doing great when I went back home. She took good care of the house as well. Overall great experience!”

“We appreciated that she spent time with our dogs and kept them company while we were away. It was clear they were being given attention, which meant a lot to us. However, there were a couple of concerns that are important to mention. We have cameras in our home, which she was made aware of in advance. While most were turned off, we left the front door and one camera in the dogs’ area on. At one point, one of our dogs had an accident in that room. The footage showed that it was seen multiple times but not addressed. I only became aware of the situation after receiving several notifications and had to reach out to ask that it be cleaned. This made me feel that it may have been left unattended otherwise. Additionally, we had left our house key in a lockbox on the door. While the key was placed back inside, the combination was not reset. Since we were out of town, this felt like a safety concern, as it left our home more accessible than we were comfortable with. That said, I’m still giving her 4 stars. I know she’s just starting out, and these are all things that can easily be improved with a bit more experience. Overall, we’re grateful for the care she showed our dogs and appreciate her help.”

“This was the first time having someone to care for our pet. We were very nervous about leaving our 15 year old dog with someone we had just met but, Nicholas is amazing. He was very accommodating in caring for Darby our West Highland “terroir”. He stayed at our home while we were away and went the extra mile taking care of our dog and our home. We would recommend him to any family seeking someone to care for their pet. We were happy with the service and care provided by Rover and Nicholas. We will be using both again soon.”

“I can’t recommend her enough! She was absolutely wonderful with my dogs—they liked her right away, which immediately put me at ease. She gave me daily updates while I was away, so I never had to wonder how they were doing. I came home to happy, well-cared-for dogs and a clean house, which was such a nice bonus. She’s reliable, thoughtful, and clearly great with animals. I will definitely be hiring her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter!”

About: I have over six years of experience in animal care and am eager to continue my career. My goal is to work at a veterinary clinic or hospital, or establish my own mobile grooming business after completing grooming school. In my previous role at Sobo Dog Daycare, I gained experience maintaining a safe environment for dogs and recognizing canine body language and behaviors.

I can provide care to both, long stays at clients residence or I can provide boarding services in my home!! Whatever is the best for the client and also for the pet parent as well! If im boarding I suggest bringing anything that is favorable, toy or bed, blanket ect its easier for them to get adjusted to the new environment if they have something familiar from home with them.

“Amber was incredible with my cat, Gus! She stayed with him while I was gone for a few days and sent me pictures every day! I would 100% have her stay with him again, in fact, I even referred her to my family. So that should tell you something!!”

About: Life is Good with pets! I have been providing professional pet care services for dogs for over 5 years. I have always had different dogs in my life from childhood to adulthood. I’ve seen how happy my own pet is from taking him on regular walks and I am excited to provide this same experience for other pets. I have a large, fenced yard in a semi-rural neighborhood, and I enjoy taking dogs on nice long walks. Pets are allowed on furniture to snuggle and I am also happy to crate train pets, if preferred. I am currently working from home, so I have most of my time to give attention and love to your pet. I am happy to provide these services at all times. I have plenty space and a fenced yard for your pet to play or simple go on potty breaks, if needed. The services requested will be depending on the customers offer :)

About: Hi, I’m Tess! I live in Charles Town, WV with my two-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Louie, and two cats, Tatiana and Rudy — so your pet is walking into a home that already loves animals. I take a slow, easy approach to dog care. I let dogs sniff, wander, and just be themselves, whether we’re doing a neighborhood walk, a quick potty break, or a longer trail outing. Every walk is just two dogs at most, so your pup gets real time and attention. I always send photo updates along the way so you can see how they’re doing. I welcome dogs of all sizes who are friendly with other dogs, cats, and people. For boarding, I have a large fenced backyard and keep things small and relaxed — more like a home than a kennel. I also offer occasional house sitting for dogs who are happiest in their own space. I’d love to meet your pup! Feel free to reach out to check availability or set up a meet-and-greet. Fridays are my day off, so walks are unhurried and get my full attention. For boarding, I'm home all weekend, so any dog staying with me has someone around rather than sitting alone in an empty house. Dogs staying with me have access to a large fenced backyard and are never left alone outside. Inside, I keep a calm, low-stimulation environment. My Cavalier Louie lives here full time, so any boarding dog will be introduced to him gradually and supervised until I'm confident they're comfortable together. I do a meet and greet with Louie before confirming any boarding stay. For house sitting, I follow the owner's routine as closely as possible so the dog's environment feels as normal as it can while they're away. Photo updates are sent throughout any service.

“Cared for our fur babies like her own and gave me such a peace of mind with this being my first time using a pet sitter. Received regular updates on my babies as well. 10/10 will book again!”

About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover, and spending time with pets is something I genuinely enjoy. Whether it’s going for a walk, playing, or simply keeping your pet company, I love making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I have over six years of experience caring for dogs and homes for friends and family. I also have some experience working with dogs who have anxiety or separation anxiety, and I’m happy to provide patient, compassionate care to help them feel comfortable. While I’m not experienced with aggressive dogs, I’m committed to creating a positive experience for pets that are a good fit for my skill set. I currently offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I have two Boxers of my own, so I’m comfortable caring for large dogs and understand the exercise and attention they need. In addition to dogs, I love cats! I previously worked for about 2½ years at a cat café partnered with a local rescue organization, where I cared for cats every day, including administering basic medical care, monitoring their health, and meeting their daily needs. This experience has made me confident caring for cats of all personalities. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members! If you have any questions or would like to know more, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I look forward to caring for your pets as if they were my own! 🐾 My schedule is currently very flexible, so I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening services. Please let me know what dates and times work best for you! I prioritize your pet’s safety by following routines, providing attentive care, respecting your home, securing doors, and keeping you updated with photos and messages. With that if there is anything you need me to add in I will gladly do so to keep you feel at ease!

“Was gone for about 3 days. Jessica was able to provide me with a morning and afternoon report on how my pets were doing and sent me plenty of pictures. I was so grateful and was able to enjoy my trip knowing that they were in good hands. My 2 cats and pup were so comfortable with her. Definitely recommend and will rebook again!”
