Dog Boarding in Stafford Albemarle Glebe, Arlington, VA

“Sonja took great care of my dogs over the Thanksgiving holiday!!! She follows detailed feeding and walking instructions, asks questions for clarification and - most importantly - sends lots of pics 😍😍😍 This was my second time using Sonja for dog sitting and it definitely won’t be my last!!”

“Zella had an amazing time with Caitlin. Incredibly communicative, she clearly knows how to handle high energy dogs. Based on her body language, very obvious Zella felt the love and attention.”

“Christine has a fun, safe, and loving space for the dogs in her care. She limits the dogs she’s boarding, sends pictures, and gives feedback on how your pup is doing. Would definitely recommend Christine’s boarding services.”

“Shirin, thank-you for taking such great care of Rigby!! It warmed my heart to know he was with such a sweet and loving family!! In fact, we are wondering if you could watch Rigby again — this coming weekend!! Are you - and your loving children- available to watch Rigby from Friday, Oct 13 through Sunday, October 15?!?** We would feel so good if Rigby could stay w you again!! Pls lmk if you are indeed available to watch Rigby again - this weekend- Friday through Sunday… We look forward to hearing from you!! Nancy & Rigby ??”

“Ghibli had a wonderful time with Sush and her family! She sent photos regularly and took such great care of him. What a relief of worry for when I travel, to know he can be somewhere where he is so happy.”

“Andy did an amazing job with my dog Rudy! He sent me pictures and videos of Rudy frequently and was great to work with. He took the time to meet with me the day before and make sure that Rudy would be comfortable while he stayed with Andy. My dog was very comfortable with him, ate all his meals, and adjusted wonderfully with Andy. Since coming home, my dog has been his regular self and seems like he had a blast with Andy. I’d highly recommend him. If you’re looking for a dog sitter, Andy is great!”

“Charlie was excellent. He was communicative, thorough, and thoughtful. He sent us updates through out the weekend and pictures of our dog Layla during her stay. I felt safe and comfortable leaving Layla in Charlie’s care and would highly recommend him to others. We will be booking Charlie again in the future for sure.”

“Grace is the caretaker of your dog's dreams. She is the dog lover's dog lover. I saw her care for her two beloved dachshunds for years until they crossed the rainbow bridge at 13 and 14. No two human children were ever treated better by their parents than those dogs were treated by Grace. Additionally, I have seen Grace love on lots of other dogs, including my own. The only risk you run in having Grace look after your dog is that the dog may not want to leave!”

“This is akela’s second stay with Leonard and Kathryn and when she saw their house she went happily a straight in, we were very happy to see she felt safe and excited to be there once more.”

“Sky was a life saver! She hosted my Uschi and gave her meds and gave her companionship with her 2 tiny cuties! My pup was returned to me calm and happy--she even got a bath!”

“This is our second time using Sam’s services and just like the first time, everything was amazing! Our dog Penny loves to visit Sam and Happy and I know she is in good hands. Sam took wonderful care of Penny and even administered medicine to her. Sam is gracious, accommodating and a wonderful dog sitter!”

“Leo thoroughly enjoyed his stay and he was so well taken care of. Nair and her husband were a complete pleasure to work with. Thank you again!!”

“Michael was phenomenal as he took care of Sammy, my beagle. He was friendly and communicative and Sammy enjoyed staying with him. I highly recommend Michael.”

“Jie was fantastic. I felt so good and comfortable living Vivi with her and glad I found her for my future needs. She sent updates and pictures every day.”

“Our experience with Erin was wonderful. She really knows how to care for your dog like her own and I could tell my dog Luna had a great time staying with her. She was very communicative and gave updates/pictures through Luna’s stay. Def would go with Erin again!”

About: Hi there! My name is Julia, and I just moved to Lyon Village by way of DC and NYC. I work remotely in People Development for a PR firm, where practicing clear communication and fostering mutual trust are things I do on a daily basis. I've volunteered at several animal shelters in my spare time, and I’ll do everything I can to keep your pets happy, healthy and safe when you’re called to the other commitments in your life. I’ve been the sole owner of pets for 4 years but have cared for animals almost my entire life. I grew up with Maine Coon cats and fostered kittens and dogsat while living in NYC. I’d love to hear your pet care needs! I manage my own working schedule, so I can drop in almost any time during the day or evening. I live in a house with one other person and 2 cats, and we have a (small) front and back yard, so there’s enough room to play! My cats Bean and Finny are both very curious and have been around other cats and dogs in the past. Bean tends to want to hang out with new visitors, while Finny does his typical cat thing and steers clear. They’re also both insured. I treat my cats like they're my kids, and I'll truly do the same for your pets. I will always err on the side of caution and will communicate (in whatever way you prefer) if I think something’s up. DOGGIE DAYCARE "Doggie Daycare" is 7-11 hours a day, dropping off from 7 to 9 am and picking up from 4 to 6 pm. Extending beyond or before those timeframes automatically incurs an "extended hours" fee set by Rover. Need a sitter for fewer than 7 hours a day? Reach out! I’m happy to customize for your needs. If possible, I much prefer watching your loved ones in your space for daycare reservations. I find it’s easier for all animals, since they’re in their natural space. Happy to discuss all options with you, however. HOUSE-SITTING: Let’s discuss expectations for each reservation. House-sitting generally means I’ll spend the majority of the day at your place, with up to a few hours where I’ll head to my place to feed my own cats or run errands or other drop-ins. I can either spend the night at your place or arrive at your place each morning and leave each evening. Whatever our arrangement, I respect your privacy and home. I will bring in mail and packages, water plants or a garden, and clean up after myself before I leave.

“Nina was absolutely terrific with my pup! She was super responsive, consistently sent pics, was kind and accommodating. I would 100% book again :)”

“Lina and her daughters were fantastic! They took great care of our two dogs over a long holiday weekend, providing numerous photos throughout each day. We would highly recommend them and have already scheduled additional stays!”

“Completely positive experience for both me and our dog, Oliver. Alyce and her husband, Rob, are exceptionally responsible and caring people who clearly take seriously their role and duties of caring for your pet. They hosted me and my pet at their home for a meet and greet (of them, their dog and us) that covered all relationships and questions regarding stay and care of our dog prior to either of us locking in the booking. During our pet’s stay with.Alyce, he received the very best personal care, was very well accommodated and Alyce went above and beyond to keep me posted with my pet’s integration into their family and how he was adapting to their home. All this gave me great confidence that he was being cared for and was totally comfortable with his time with them. Upon picking up my pet, Alyce took time to cover her impression of my pet and how he fared and about his daily adjustments. My pet was very happy upon my arrival and clearly had been cared for properly and with great attention and concern by Alyce. I could not be more pleased with this experience and would recommend Alyce without any hesitation as a very responsible and reliable Pet Sitter. You can put your full trust and confidence in Alyce to care for your pet while you are away. She is the best.”

“Sreya was so great! I received several pictures throughout each day to make me feel that Kona was in good hands and was a happy girl. Sreya and her boyfriend took such good care of Kona while I was away and I would highly recommend her to care for your pet! They took her on a hike and got in lots of play time, sunbathing and walks :)”
