“Miguelina and family came in strong for us last minute when our other sitter cancelled. I did a quick meet and greet with her to go everything and then Remy stayed with her for a week. He was well taken care of and she would provide daily updates and pictures. She also was super flexible when our plane was so late we had to pick him up the next day. Will definitely be using her again for future trips. He came home a happy pup.”
“Vincent took care of my dog like family! It was comforting knowing my dog was in good hands. I loved the videos and photos he sent throughout stay. Highly recommend Vincent! 5+-stars all the way.”
“Marcela was caring and welcoming to our pup. She was able to tire him out which is a huge feat! She updated us daily on what was happening and even sent photos. Our pup was well loved and cared for in their home. Highly recommend them!”
“We rebooked with Katherine and Marc after a good fist stay a couple months ago. Less than a week before her scheduled stay this time, our dog tore her ACL. They cared for her so well and provided me lots of updates.”
“Thank you, Helena & Nathan, for taking such great care of Charlotte for the week! From all the pictures you sent, I could tell that she had a great time and that you made her feel right at home. It made my trip more enjoyable knowing my girl was well cared for!!”
“Elizabeth and her family were great with my husky. They were flexible with my situation and ensured my dog was in a comfortable place. They took him to the dog park and treated him as part of their own family. Will definitely be using them again.”
“10/10 experience! I genuinely feel like Cocoa found her second family. They were absolutely amazing with her from start to finish and treated her like she was one of their own. I received regular updates throughout the weekend, which made me feel so comfortable and reassured knowing she was happy, safe, and being completely spoiled with love and attention. You can tell they truly care about the dogs they watch and do so much more than just “pet sit.” They made Cocoa feel at home, and that means everything to me. I never once felt worried or uneasy while she was with them while away on my trip because they were so attentive and communicative. I honestly could not have asked for a better family to care for my girl. They did a phenomenal job, and I am beyond grateful to have found people I can genuinely trust with her. I will absolutely be using them again in the future and would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for loving, dependable, and trustworthy pet care. Cocoa was clearly in the best hands, and I know she will be so excited to go back! 🐾❤️”
“Jordyn was great with our Bernedoodle! I think our pup might actually be depressed now that he’s back home! 🤭. We can tell he was well-cared for during our 11 days away. Thanks again, Jordyn!”
“Annie was super sweet, very communicative, took lots of pictures, and was so easy to work with! We will definitely be booking with her again. It’s such a great feeling to find someone who you know you can trust with your dogs when you move to a new area. She was awesome!”
“I'm so happy to have left my dog in Bethany's care! You can tell she's an animal lover and treats pets with so much care and attention. I appreciated the photo she sent me while Korben was enjoying the dog park. I'm so happy to have found Bethany and I most certainly leave Korben with her again. Highly recommend!”
“David was great with our dog and we would not hesitate to book with him again! We got lots of pictures and videos which made us feel more comfortable while we were away.”
“We were away for 6 days, and Rebeca did an incredible job taking care of our puppy, Kobe! From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and truly caring. She gave us updates and made sure Kobe was well-loved and comfortable while we were gone. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. We came home to a happy, healthy pup, and we’re so grateful for her care. Highly recommend Rebeca—she’s amazing!”
“Jodee and AJ are great. They were so patient as I worked through multiple schedule changes with my job leading up to the booking. My two beagirls were right at home with them and I enjoyed getting a few pictures/update each day. Both came home happy and healthy. We'll re-book with them for any future out of town trips.”
“Cora is always excited to stay with Shanti and gets along so well with the whole family. My return flight was delayed way past my expectations and she was really sweet about allowing cora to stay even though it meant arriving til late in the evening. She's been my first pick sitter since we moved to the area.”

“If you love your dog, you want this family to pet board/sit while you’re away. Phenomenal to work with. They love animals and it shows with the care they take. I am very particular about what sort of people are allowed to watch my dog (commutative, social, can follow the walking scheduling etc) and they passed with flying colors.”

Ja was very communicative and sent me some great pictures while on an extended trip for work and vacation. My girls also seemed to enjoy Leo’s company. Ja also followed all of the instructions for the girls care and was very flexible with drop off and pick up. Would definitely recommend.
Rachel is the best! She was very patient and kind with my shy dog Fern and made a loving home for her while I was away. I got lots of pictures and updates as well! I could tell my dog was relaxed and really enjoyed her stay. She got to cuddle up on every piece of furniture as part of the family!
Carlos is an amazing sitter—diligent, caring, and communicative. It was so nice to receive photos of Mochi several times a day while on vacation. On top of his clear love for dogs and understanding of Mochi, he was super understanding when we had a travel snafu on the way home. We will happily leave Mochi with Carlos again and recommend his services. Thank you so much.
Diana was fantastic with our dog Gabby! She has a beautiful backyard and truly treated our dog like family. We have been looking for years for someone who would treat our golden like family and she certainly did! She texted often with pictures and asked questions to clarify our instructions. Great communication and Gabby looked so happy! If I could give Diana 100 stars I would! Thank you and you have earned a customer for life!
Noël was INCREDIBLE, we cannot say enough good things about her! We loved her frequent updates and photos, and could tell that our Mitchy was so content and comfortable. She goes above and beyond in making sure your dog gets tons of enrichment time and love. Thank you Noël!!!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their West Springfield home-away-from-home, packing:

Many sitters in VA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
