House Sitting Wynkoop Spring

“We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience with Heather. After a few disappointing encounters with other sitters who didn’t even show up to meet our dog, Heather was a breath of fresh air. Not only did she show up as promised, but she immediately connected with our dog, treating him with genuine warmth and affection. While we were away, Heather cared for our pup as if he were her own—providing regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind. It was clear he was in loving and capable hands. We wholeheartedly recommend Heather to anyone in need of a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter. She exceeded all of our expectations.”

“Lana was absolutely amazing! ❤️ We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. Our pets absolutely loved her, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and capable hands while we were away. She was wonderful with our pets, kept us updated, and treated them like they were her own. 🐾 We came home to happy pets, and that says everything! We will definitely be using Lana again and again! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable to take care of their fur babies. ❤️🐶🐱”

About: I have been an owner of many animals! I have taken care of dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, and farm animals. I am an animal lover and enjoy spending time with them. I was hosted in a wildlife refugee home when I was young, so I have a lot of experiences with animals with special needs. I have retired early and looking to help out with animal care. I have an open and flexible schedule and can work with pet owners about their needs and schedules. I can accommodate and adapt to your family’s routine and will build on the household’s established needs to create a structured, consistent environment for your pet.

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!

“This was the first time we left our puppy Fiona. We left her with Evangeline and couldn’t be more pleased. Fiona loves her. Our puppy and home were very well taken care of. We would definitely use Evangeline again!”

About: I have over 20 years of experience and caring for pets. We have also had the opportunity to breed German shepherds for many years. I have experience with senior animals, as well as with animals that require medication. Please feel free to reach out at any time. My schedule is fairly open! I am available during the week as well as on weekends. Please reach out with any additional scheduling questions you may have. I am dedicated to providing quality care for your animals and a safe environment. I understand the importance of providing quality care for your animals while you are away as your animals are an extension of your family.

“We've never been gone from our pets for two weeks before. When our usual pet sitter told us she was unavailable, we were hesitant in finding new ones for such a long trip. Alexia and Jay were incredible. They had the best attention to detail, care, and love for our animals as if they were their own. Day 1, one of our dogs hurt his back legs somehow and they took him to the ER for us just to be sure. Never a complaint once. It was all smooth sailing after that. We got so many pictures and videos multiple times a day. Very responsive and available for any and all questions. They even went above and beyond to reset the house a bit before we came home. They take this very seriously which made our trip much less stressful. Thank you so much! Can't wait to book you again.”

About: I have had family dogs since I can remember and have been caring for them since around 9 years old. I'm currently studying to become a veterinary technician with a degree in animal science! I also am a former dog bather and groomer in training as well as a former kennel employee. A dogs love is unconditional and I feel that means they deserve everything and more! I am available 24 hours a day and would love to fill all 7 days of the week with fuzzy, slobbery friends! I do have occasional doctors appointments or visits with family and whatnot, but those should be reflected in my calendar! I will be accompanied by lots of love and lots of patience. I will feed and give medication as needed. If any housekeeping is needed I am happy to help, and I will walk, brush and let them outside as you ask, maybe even a nail trim if needed!

I learned so much about dogs from my experience with her,specifically about pit breeds. So all your pit breeds out there don’t hesitate to call me:) I love all breeds bully, Rottweilers, Pitts, mastiff and boxers! My schedule is super flexible so it’s easy to fit yours. Rover appealed to me because,I’m not able to have a dog of my own right now. But it allows me to still Be able spend time with dogs. I’ll be sure to show your pup TONS of love and affection while we are on walks and be sure to take it at their pace.

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.

“Faith took such good care of our dogs! Would highly recommend her to anyone!”

About: I have had dogs my entire life. Cats since I was 11. I have ridden and worked with horses since I was 5. I do all my animals vetting minus their rabies vaccinations. I have a senior Husky, a three year old German Shepherd and an eleven month old Pitbull/German shepherd mix. I have a ball python as well as two eight year old tuxedo cats. I love them all! All my babies are spoiled rotten and I share in the spoils! I currently stay at home and I'm a football mom so I have an open schedule around practices and games to take care of needs of others! I currently do not offer boarding as I do not have a fence. My dogs and I love to lounge around, play and adventure the yard for all the new smells. My babies have my full house to roam and are only put up when I leave as they are mischievous and get themselves into trouble. We go out every few hours to potty and roam the yard to smell all the smells, because you never know who has been in the yard in the last two hours! We must patrol! Lots of walks and toys! In your home, it is whatever you and your pet need! Walks, playtime, medication, pop-ins.

About: I've been a passionate animal lover since I was born. I started out with my own neighborhood business, in which I offered dog walking, pet sitting, and house sitting services to a consistent client list of 11 homes over the course of 6 years. Then I branched out a little more professionally and spent 2 years at a boarding school in Missouri in which I studied puppy socialization and training, adult canine socialization, obedience, and behavior modification. I also received additional training for Therapy/Assistance Dogs, Vet Technician, and canine anatomy, philosophy, and psychology, specializing in no resistance training. After 2 years, I received my certificate as a CALO-Certified Dog Handler and American Kennel Club Canine Good Citizen Certified. I am well versed in dogs and cats of all temperaments, and provide the best care I can for each dog and cat that are placed into my care. I am currently working part time, so my pet care availability depends on my weekly schedule. If contacted far enough ahead, I can rearrange my schedule to better accommodate needs. I am fully available on Sundays for any services. I am a very active person, so walks are always my go to. I would love to play ball or frisbee in the backyard, or even take your dog to the dog park! Unfortunately, I am unable to bring dogs back to my home, but will use any resources given to me by you or the public!
