Dog Sitters in Reston, VA

Ashley

Ashley is truly amazing! We decided last minute to go away for a three-day weekend during New Year, and Ashley, who lives nearby, immediately agreed to take care of our cats and house, leaving us with no worries. Throughout, Ashley responded promptly to my messages, followed our instructions, and kept us updated on our cat's well-being. When we returned home, our house was neat and clean. We would absolutely welcome Ashley back! Highly recommended!

Zackary

This is Zack’s 2nd time sitting for us and both times he has been great. He was able to get an issue under control with our oldest dog and handled it like a champ. I Forgot to let him know contractors were coming to install solar panels but he was very understanding. He took good care of our 3 dogs and our home. He is welcome to sit for us anytime.

Ryan & Jessica

Jess & Ryan were amazing with our two ‘challenging’dogs. When we returned both were healthy & happy. With our agreement the old dogs sleeping routine was changed & was so successful we have stuck with it. The cat is self sufficient but needs fed & watered. Not sure the tortoise knew we were away but still required to be /bathed/fed& put out on sunny days. All the plants (& I havelots) thriving. House very tidy on our return so thank you both so so much as felt we could really relax with no ‘home’worries whilst on holiday. Would definately recommend to anyone looking for pet/house sitter

Joshua

Joshua is one of the people that make zeewoi successful. He left the house cleaner than we left it for him, and he's a great communicator. He's really reliable and we feel completely comfortable leaving our kitties in his care. One of our cats, Bella, seems to like Joshua better than us!

Sarah

Sarah was EXCELLENT pet and house sitter! I will definitely be calling Sarah to come back again the next time I travel. I was especially impressed with her clear communication with me; the way my normally shy Maltese took to her immediately; her attention to detail; her flexibility; her reliability; her dependability; her kindness...I recommend Sarah very highly! She has restored my faith in using this sight. Thank you, Sarah!

Deborah & Jorge

Deb & Jorge were the best! They are caring and responsive + will leave your home spotless. 10/10 would recommend Deb & Jorge to anyone seeking care for their pets!!

Margarita

Rita took excellent care of our two senior cats while we were away. She told me that she tried to keep them from being bored, which probably explains why they were so happy and relaxed when we got home!!! She also took good care of our garden and home and was easy to communicate with. Thanks Rita!

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!

Ivan

Ivan and Gloria were wonderful sitters. They were communicative, organized, and clean. They took really good care of our kitties. We would love to have them again.

Amy

Amy did a great job with our boys and they were very content when we got home. She made sure our big boy had a walk even with rainy weather. She was great! Book her!

Sara

Sara was a phenomenal communicator, which we consider the most important aspect of a sitter. She sent photos and kept us updated on our rabbit without being prompted. She was very self sufficient and was able to follow all of our directions. We would appreciate having her as a sitter again.

Annette

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Annette and her daughter Claire were great! They clearly enjoyed the cats, were tidy and careful, and they rolled with the punches when I showed up home earlier than they'd expected (my fault, I usually text to let people know my ETA but I was in an area with bad connection and didn't notice the message had failed to send) they just dealt with it cheerfully. I'd be very happy to have them back any time they're in the area!

Christian

If I had the option to give Andras & Eszter 100 starts for all the options I would. 

They are two of the nicest people we have met, they both treated our home and dogs with great respect and kindness. 

Thank you and we hope you will sit for us again some time soon.

Lorin

Eleanor and Jose are lovely people and we really enjoyed having them housesit for us! They took excellent care of our pets and Eleanor provided us with regular updates. Our dog loved them and you could tell it was mutual. I would happily have them back again any time.

Ashley

Mia was wonderful - she took excellent care of my shy great Dane, patiently befriending her and sending gorgeous photos of their hikes together. My dog, Lilah, fell in love with her! The house was spotless and Mia added thoughtful touches, vases of fresh flowers. I was lucky that we crossed paths for a night; it was so fun to go to dinner - she is delightful!; responsible, kind, adventurous, and a great communicator. I’d love to have her back any time and highly recommend her!
