I have been using Pet Elf for my cat sitter needs for over 2 years. I was away in January for…read morealmost the whole month. Karen O, my sitter, went above and beyond as one of my cats stopped eating. We coordinated multiple home visits, a vet appointment, and post care for my cat. He is doing fine now. Without Karen's assistance and dedication my cat may have died. I also want to give a shout out to Karla, the owner. Due to the ice storm, my condo entrance was buried under 2 feet of ice. She went to visit my cats and found the blockade and let me know. I had to hire a team to dig me out. Karla was able to get access and check my cats. I came home the next day and was also able to get into my condo. Without Karla, I would have arrived with no way to get into my condo. Nightmare! Pet Elf will continue to be my go-to for all my cat sitting needs. Thank you!!

I am not ashamed to admit that I am obsessed with my dogs. They are my children, my hobby and pride…read moreand joy. Not surprisingly i am incredibly picky about who I trust and allow around my most treasured possessions. I interviewed THREE different dog walking companies before settling on Dog Walkers of NOVA. After meeting with Marc, the owner, i could see that he genuinely loves animals. My dogs LOVED him and they are usually very shy around other people... I truly believe animals have an instinct for people. More importantly he took the safety and care of my dogs very seriously. He is a former vet tech and even helped me with some health concerns I had with one of my pups. I have now used this company for a few months and have also met some of the other available dog walkers. They have all been top notch and you can tell they enjoy their jobs. It is imperative to me that I am hiring professionals who not just love dogs, but understand how to positively correct and reinforce good behavior. My favorite thing to do is watch how excited my dogs get for their walk on my home security cameras while I am at work. I am having a baby soon and plan to use their overnight services while I am in the hospital. I have a lot of respect for the punctuality, professionalism and experience I have witnessed in the handling of my dogs. I can confidently recommend them to others and will continue to use them as their prices are competitive to similar companies in the area and their reputation is spotless.

We live in Aldie, VA right next to South Riding where many of the NOVA dog walkers who claim to do…read morethe Chantilly area actually do not, or want to charge more. Marc and his sister were very nice and super friendly. They are very well priced and our dogs love having them visit (we have used them for the past 7 months now). They keep the house clean and wipe off the paws when it is muddy outside, so that is just a nice bonus. They are super flexible on schedules and communicate very well. The daily notes are a nice touch and we feel very safe letting them into our home and taking care of our two large dogs. Their boarding rates can't be beat and we love that our dogs are in a home and are not in a cage when we go on trips where we can't take them. So all-in-all their daily walks and boarding services are great!

YDS has always taken great care of our companion animals and each of our sitters have been wonderful. They always treat our fur kids like their very own and when we return from a trip our pets act like we were never gone. The sitters always take the time to give them one on one time, lots of snuggles and treats. I believe they actually look forward to the pet sits since it's kind of like a mini vacation for them with all of the special treatment! YDS is definitely the best pet sitting service in the area. I've been using them since late 2011 and they are the only petsitting small business that I trust with my furry babies.

Walks are 15-25 minutes each day with lots of interaction with the dog walker so these are happy pups! 2. I get tons of photos via text and email of their walks each day which are time stamped. 3. Dog walkers are extremely reliable and on time. 4. Easy online portal which allows you to make easy changes to the schedule and also provides a report card of how they handled their business and any pertinent information. 5. They always give the dogs water before and after their walk and a treat if you request they provide one of your treats. 6. Very responsive at all hours including weekends, especially when you have a last minute situation that comes up and need a dog walker. 7. Easy and accurate weekly billing. NEGATIVES: None. BONUS: Melissa also went the extra mile and corrected some of the bad behaviors that the dogs picked up from a previous, less competent dog walker.
