“Lucia was amazing! Her communication is superb; she sent photos and video updates of my dog Carmen frequently. She is both sweet and caring and obviously loves dogs. 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.”


“Diamond is the most amazing dog sitter! She was able to watch my pup with such short notice and helped us out so much. I am so happy he was in such great hands while I was at work. Thank you!!”


“Xinyi took excellent care of my senior dog. She’s very friendly and attentive and my dog was very comfortable in her home. My pup is a little old lady and doesn’t do long walks anymore - but Xinyi got her to walk for a good 20 minutes, which is a big deal lol. Thank you, Xinyi!”


About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was 15. I live in a townhouse with a fenced-in backyard with my partner, Brandon, who also loves dogs. We’ve had our two lab mixes, Rocky and DJ, since they were puppies. I also have experience taking care of dogs with medical issues such as recovering from surgery. I work from home most days Monday-Friday, so the dogs get plenty of attention during the day. Dogs get individual leash walks around the neighborhood in the morning and in the evening, meals in the morning and evening, and are let out into the fenced backyard to play multiple times per day. This schedule can be adjusted to your dog’s needs, just let me know. I live in a townhouse in Herndon with a fenced backyard that the dogs can play in. I have two lab mixes, Rocky and DJ, who are very sweet and friendly to other dogs and people. They love company and having other dogs to play with. They are both about 65 pounds. They both get along great with dogs of all sizes. If I need to go out, I will normally leave DJ and Rocky in the bedroom where they sleep, and guest dogs in our guest bedroom. If you would prefer your dog to be crated, I do have a large crate. I only accept one client’s dogs at a time. I do this so that I can show guest dogs the individual love and attention that I show my own dogs.

“Mandana did an amazing job with our very energetic doberman pup! When we picked him up it was obvious he had a great time. Highly recommend Mandana; she’s very friendly and did a great job taking care of the pup (including walks/feeding). We will definitely be back!!”


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!

About: I've been caring and loving animals since I was a little girl. Have no fear your new 🐕 lover is here to make sure that they have the best care! My 14 year old daughter wanted a job and I just thought since she loves animals so much she could try out rover! She will be supervised but I just wanted to have something for her to do on her free time. Plus she could watch animals and earn money at the same time so its a win win! I am home most of the time during weekdays I will let you know if you contact me and I won't be available. I'm very flexible. If your dog need care I'll do my best to help you so you don't have to stress. I'm home full time. I have a fenced yard. Its dog parks close as well as trails for nice long walks and talks while I care for your pup.

About: I have been in veterinary medicine for 12 years and have been pet sitting for 20 years. I have cared for pets of all ages and energy levels. I am able to administer medication or monitor medical issues if needed. I work 75% from home, and I am away for a maximum of 4 hours. I can create my own schedule, so I adjust it as needed based on my pet's requirements. When caring for pets, I will assess their anxiety levels and schedule the day's activities accordingly. Each pet is treated as if they were my own. I will follow any care instructions provided. Exercise is essential for a pet's health, so I take them on a minimum of one hour of walking each day, in addition to regular potty breaks. If more exercise is needed, I am happy to accommodate that as well!

About: Hello! We’re Shannon and Jorge. We know how important it is to have a trustworthy dog-sitter, so we take the responsibility very seriously. Dogs love being at our house and enjoy all the cuddling and interaction they get here. We love dogs and try to make them comfortable and happy while they may be missing their owners. We’ve cared for so many different breeds, personalities, ages, a pregnant dog, and many puppies (including six that were born in our bathroom!) P.S. Chihuahuas are our favorite! Please note: Drop-offs before 7am will be an additional $15; Pick-ups after 3pm will be charged for an additional day. We are always caring for pets because we have two of our own. Every day of the week, our pets are part of our routine. We have a fenced yard and a comfortable living space for furry friends to roam. If they have a special diet, we can do custom meal plans as well.

“Mihika provided excellent day care services. I have a four-year-old deaf dog with separation anxiety. Previously, dog has always hated day care and would hide the entire time she was at a day care service. She would refuse to eat or use the restroom. My dog absolutely loved Mihika and looked forward to seeing her every morning. Mihika took my dog on walks, played with her every day, and sent plenty of photos. I highly recommend Mihika as your next dog sitter.”


“Carmen and Daniel were excellent dog sitters! I needed a sitter for my dog Queen while I was at work. They were so easy to work with and Queen loved her time with them! She was exhausted every night I picked her up because she got to play with their puppy all day. I will definitely bring Queen to them again and recommend them for anyone who needs their baby looked after!!”



“My pup had a great day hanging out all day and is totally pooped. Shows how much fun he had at Staci’s! Highly recommend and her pup Cooper is also such a sweetheart. Can’t wait to send my pup over again!”
