About: Hi! My name is Sarah. I grew up taking care of our family dog, rabbit, guinea pigs and fish. I feel comfortable and confident walking/caring for all different sizes and ages of dogs due to previously working for a dog walking/pet sitting company in the NOVA area during 2016-2017. During that year, I was also was responsible for overnight stays, and day time cat visits. My primary experience with pet care since that time has been taking care of my own dog (his name is Rudy, he is a toy poodle who has been the best friend we could dream of for almost 10 years and counting). I am in the medical field and am currently in between jobs, which allows my schedule to be flexible. I am available every weekday (and most weekends). For house sitting, I will keep to your desired schedule as my Rover schedule allows (as I will likely need to leave a few times during the day for other pet visits). I am comfortable staying overnight in your home. For dog walking, your dog’s safety is my top priority. I will avoid other dogs and if walking 2 dogs at the same time, I use a waist leash. I prefer to use a harness and non-retractable leashes (when available). Before or after their walk, we can also play fetch/play with toys inside or outside (if you have a fenced in yard). For cat visits, I am happy to clean their litter boxes, feed them, and play with them inside your home (only if they are interested, of course!) For either dogs or cats, I am able to administer oral or injectable medication if needed.

About: What sets me apart is my experience as a veterinary assistant, which gives me a deep understanding of animal behavior, health, and emergency care. I’m confident caring for pets of all ages—from energetic puppies who need training and structure to senior pets requiring gentle handling, medication, or special attention. I prioritize safety, consistency, and love, treating every pet like family. Whether it’s playing with them or just providing a calm, reassuring presence, I’m here to give your pet the best care possible! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I genuinely love spending time with animals, and I’ve built my schedule to make them a priority. As a veterinary assistant, caring for pets is already a big part of my life, and I extend that same dedication to my pet sitting clients. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings, I plan my day around each pet’s needs to ensure they get consistent, loving attention. I’m usually available weekdays in the afternoon and Friday’s and weekends I’m free pretty much all day to care for your fur babies! When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special needs. I make sure they feel safe and comfortable by giving them plenty of attention, affection, and patience. I will also keep your home tidy, respect your space, and provide regular updates with photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away! My goal is to make your pet feel like you’re never gone! :)

About: I have taken care of and fully trained high drive dogs since I was 12. I have experience with German pointers and Dobermans. No dog or cat is too reactive or aggressive. I am able to provide whatever it may be to give your pet comfortability. I am home 24/7 do I will have plenty of time to care for your pet! I am also extremely active so trust your pet will be worn out and receive plenty of enrichment. I have a huge fully fenced yard, and a personal kennel big enough for a Great Dane. I am also able to drive and fit your pet in my car. I am also able to play with your pet within your home and do more as needed.

“We had the pleasure of having Natalie take care of our dog while we were on vacation, and we couldn't be more pleased with her service. She was absolutely wonderful with administering our dog's medications, ensuring they were given exactly as prescribed. Natalie also followed our dog's walking and feeding schedule to a tee, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We returned home to a very happy and well-cared-for pup. We highly recommend Natalie to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

“Leah has been an absolutely amazing dog walker for our pup!! I was so impressed with her professionalism from the start and she has been so consistent and thorough in providing the best care for our dog. She is a great communicator and you can tell she really cares about taking care of animals. She has put my mind at ease on a daily basis knowing my pup is receiving the best treatment and attention. I could not recommend Leah enough!”

About: I have taken care of and trained both senior dogs and puppies, additionally i have 2 dogs of my own, along with 2 cats, a boy and a girl, who have bladder stones and separation anxiety respectively. I can administer pills to all pets along with oral shots and antibiotics. I am available all day everyday, willing to stay over night, can work weekends and holidays, and i am always available.

I can play with your pets, feed them, take them for walks and outside whenever necessary, spend lots of time with them so they’re not lonely, and make sure they are happy even when i’m not there. I am good at following clients schedules and specific routines, as some pets won’t eat unless everything goes according to the routine!

“Lenny did a great job taking our 2 Great Danes on daily walks. The girls really like her and were very excited when she arrived every day. It is apparent how much Lenny likes animals and her enthusiasm and care for them really shows.”

About: Currently offering services to the Fort Belvoir area. I don’t own a pet currently, but I was a pet owner for more than 7 years before my dog passed away a few years ago. I enjoy daily walks, runs and playing with different types of breeds, big and small. I provide basic grooming services like tooth brushing, bathing, and cleaning after your pet (to include washing their bed when necessary). Trusting your pet enjoys walks alongside a stroller and time with toddlers, they can enjoy their time playing ball or walking around the neighborhood with us.If needed, I can also administer medications for your pet. Looking forward to hanging out with your beloved pet. I’m a stay at home parent. Due to my schedule I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet, whether it be walking, playing, and/or grooming. My property has a fenced yard that can allow your pet to feel free to run or chill for sunbathing, but I can crate your dog if needed to help your pet feel at ease.

“My fur baby loved his walks with Wyneta. She was always on time and professional. We definitely enjoyed her services and can't wait to book again.”

About: I’ve been taking care of numerous dogs since I was 11 years old. I am very experienced and love dogs. Friends and family always know that their dog is in great care with me. I am a full time student, who plays basketball. I am very good with managing my time wisely. After school I am free to take care of pets. I have a small yard in the back that is fully fenced. I also have two loving dogs who can keep your dog company. If your dog is crate trained I can put them in there or they can roam free, whatever is comfortable for you.

About: I have watched other people’s dogs and cats, and have cared for my own 2 dogs and 2 cats that I raised from being kittens and puppies. Im a Us army veteran and do not have a job. Using this as a side job before starting school. Lots of free time to watch your fur babies. I feed, let out, play, walk, wash, brush my dogs. as well as pay attention to their needs and signs, and spend time with them. I feed and play with my cats as well as give them love when they want it and attend to their needs like replacing water and cleaning litter boxes.

About: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for over 13 years. I have experience caring for my own dogs as well as dogs belonging to friends, family, and others who have trusted me with their pets. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, energy level, and needs, and I approach each one with patience, consistency, and kindness. My experience includes daily walks, exercise, mental stimulation, reinforcing positive behaviors, and providing calm, reliable care, especially for dogs who need extra reassurance or structure. I have firsthand experience working with shelter dogs and understand how important trust and routine are in helping dogs feel safe and confident. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to make each walk or visit a positive, stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet sitting and dog walking fit perfectly into my current schedule. We recently moved to the area, and at this time I am not pursuing full-time employment so I can settle in, explore the community, and maintain a flexible daily routine. All of my children are in school, and my own dogs are on a consistent schedule with early morning walks and daily exercise starting around 5:00 AM. This routine allows me to be fully present for my pets first thing in the morning while freeing up a large portion of my day for additional walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. Because of this structure, I am reliable, flexible, and able to accommodate daytime and early afternoon care with consistency and attention. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, and my schedule allows me to provide unhurried, attentive care to every animal I work with. I am a very meticulous person and strongly believe that a clean environment is a safe environment. Whether I am caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, I prioritize cleanliness, organization, and consistency to ensure pets feel secure and well cared for. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, exercise, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I keep living spaces tidy, food and water areas clean, and ensure toys, leashes, and resting areas are safe and well-maintained. I also pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and comfort level, adjusting care as needed to reduce stress and promote well-being. My goal is to provide calm, dependable care in a clean, structured environment so pets feel safe, relaxed, and at home, no matter where they are.
