Dog Sitters in Clifton, VA

Ira

Ira did a phenomenal job taking care of the cats and chickens. He went above and beyond with caring for the chickens. He arrived early so we could meet and I could show him the chicken care. He was very responsive while I was away and I look forward to inviting Ira back for another housesit if he has any future plans to return to the Smoky Mountains.

Susan

Susan was five stars plus! We could tell from the first time we met her that she would be a great fit for our Maisie! Not only did she give us frequent updates with photos, she also gave Maisie daily multiple walks and lots of cuddles and snuggles. She was very neat and clean and left our home as neat as when we left. She is a kind and caring animal lover, very responsible, and trustworthy. We could not have asked for a better Pet Sitter for our sweet Maisie! Highly recommend!

Sharon

Sharon was just a wonderful sitter. She has an engaging, positive personality and is full of energy. We were happy with the updates and photos of 2 content Goldens, whether on a trail or chilling by her feet. It is so wonderful to go away knowing your fur babies are loved and cared for in their own home. Will need to come up with a trip so we can invite this special lady back.

Marian

Marian and Steve were AWESOME! They took such good care of Ziba and our home & graciously switched bedding out for next sitter even with a VERY early flight! Thank you Steve & Marian! If you’re ever back in SF hopefully our trips will align as we’d be relieved to have you both with Ziba!

Amber

Could not have asked for a better sitter than Amber! She was super organized, communicative, and clearly an animal lover. She watched our 3 year-old cockapoo, Gryffin, over a long weekend. Unfortunately, just before her arrival he was in an accident and had to take some medication. This was no trouble for Amber and she kept on top of his medication schedule and gave us updates on his behaviour and sent us photos regularly. Thanks so much for everything, Amber!

Katherine

Katherine and her sweet family are amazing! They left their home REALLY early to be able to meet me so I could get to the airport. She was responsive and calmed my nerves about leaving my elderly dog. Her daughter was the sweetest as well!! Her husband worked at our house and helped out with Buster too. They were neat and tidy and all went perfeclty. I would without a doubt use them again - great experience!!

Linda

Linda was absolutely amazing at caring for Kea and I would have her do so again in a heartbeat. Kea went into her first heat before Linda arrived and Kea was in heat the entire time Linda was here. That meant that Linda needed to take out Kea more than usual, change the mini pads and diapers that we used on Kea to keep things, and Kea, clean, and ensure that Kea did not encounter any male dogs on walks, etc. Linda also was very attentive to Kea in addition to this - snuggling with her and keeping her comfortable. Linda came a day early to help everyone settle in (and it helped us too so we could pack!) and stayed a day later since our unexpected flight change got us in in the evening vs afternoon. The house was neat and tidy and well maintained. If you have an opportunity for Linda to sit for you - do it!

Mariaah

I cannot recommend Mariaah enough. She took fantastic care of both my dogs and my home. I got daily updates from her and then came home to two very happy dogs and a spotless home. I would love for her to come again.

Monica

Monica was great and very responsive! She was patient with my kitten and made sure to keep me updated. I came home to a very clean house and a happy kitty!

Liesel & Josef

Liesel and Josef were wonderful! We met them on Zoom before they came to sit. They were reliable and took great care of our little guy while we were gone. The house was immaculate when we arrived back home, and they seemed as though they thoroughly enjoyed their weekend! Their daughter Katie came along with them for the weekend, as they had mentioned, and she let Remmy sleep with her at night! :) We know Remmy had a great weekend! We will definitely invite them back again soon!

Walter

Walter was very self sufficient in our home and left it very clean

Katie

Katie took great care of Cooper while I was gone, was very communicative, and left my apartment clean and tidy!

Bernhard

I cannot say enough good things about Alma. From the moment we had our first video chat, to the moment I walked through the door after my trip and found my apartment cleaner and more tidy than it had ever been, Alma was an absolute dream. She was 100% reliable in every aspect, and I felt completely relaxed on my trip. I received bi-daily updates from her with pictures of my cats, who appeared very happy and relaxed - which is also how I found them after returning. To top it off, Alma didn't just clean and scrub my apartment, but even reorganized some of my messy and slightly haphazardly stacked shelves. We did another video chat to bookend the experience, and she told me about her time with my cats (she really loves cats) and that she enjoyed the apartment and the neighborhood. I only hope Alma will be available again next time I leave town.

KRISTINA

Natasha took the time to do a meet and greet beforehand, which was much appreciated. She did a good job of taking care of my two bengal kitties (who are not the easiest) for 3.5 weeks. She was very patient with them. She sent me photos every few days. And she brought in my mail. When it made the most sense for me to return the night before, she was very accommodating. She left my place tidy, though not quite as clean as how I'd left it. Overall, a pleasant experience. Would work with her again! :)

Inger

Kathy was delightful, warm, and very attentive with our pets. We had to leave suddenly for a funeral, and not only was she prompt with communication, she was so generous with her care and attention to our home and pets.
