    We used Fairy Tails DC Dog Walking and Pet Sitting to tend to our three large grumpy furballs over the holidays. This was our first time sitting with them. They delivered stellar service that was professional and reliable from the get-go. Megan smoothly took care of the initial paperwork and scheduling a meet and greet with Will. Will is truly a sitter extraordinaire. He was mindful of small details and took care of the babies with genuine warmth and love. We came back from the trip to find the cats had not missed us at all!! That, to us, is the best performance indicator of a sitter. Their visits and texts were always on time. We had to stay an extra day, and when we contacted Fairy Tails they quickly accommodated our requests. We hope we get to use their extraordinary service in the future. We have been a three cat household for over a decade. We have had several sitters, some good, some OK and two terrible ones. Fairy Tails/Will was most definitely one of the best sitting experiences we have had. We give them 6 stars! 2 for each cat :-)

    Extra credit: Their dog walk update photos are gold.

    This is the team you want taking care of your loved furry one! I have been a client for only two weeks and blown away by how wonderful they've been at helping my frightened rescue adapt to being a happy, loved doggo. Megan, Cecily, and Rit really communicate well with animals and have a Mary Poppins-esque quality. I use them for daily walks, and in-home sleepovers. "Uncle Rit" is amazing with overnight stay - the multiple updates and photos are so entertaining. Every time I come home, my doggo is happy and sometimes has a new trick to showoff that his Uncle Rit trained him to do! Beyond just excellent care for furry family, I feel comfortable leaving my home open to them, which is a big deal. I know I can trust them to always lock up correctly, and a few times they've cleaned up doggo messes, which is a huge help.

    Megan and Fairy Tails are awesome. They have been our dog walking company since our condo days, and continue to help us in our new house. She is very responsive and leaves the most hilarious status reports when she walks/feeds our dog. And she had even helped us with very last minute needs when the pup was sick. Highly recommend A+++

    Getting a Fairy Tails walk photo is always a highlight of my day!

    My dog Rocket is delighted beyond measure that we found Fairy Tails -- and so am I! Megan, Gwynne, and Toni are all wonderful: they have huge hearts, love animals, and are incredibly accommodating with scheduling needs. And their status reports from the walks are delightful -- they put a tremendous amount of care into the walk write-ups, and I love getting daily photos of Rocket and his buddies having a good time. I couldn't be happier with the service and recommend them unreservedly.

    Do NOT use their pet transportation. I just saw one of their drivers dropping a dog off at a…read morelocation and leave another inside the van with it completely OFF and it's 91 degrees outside. The dog was clearly in distress heavily panting and pawing at the window/door. The driver was gone for several minutes. I tried to call the business but was continuously re-directed through endless menus that ultimately led nowhere. I've contacted them online instead. PLEASE BEWARE Update: Per Rebeca's response, the driver did not step away "briefly". She was gone for almost 10 minutes and it was 90+ degrees outside. On top of that, when I finally got a response from them via email the following day, they indicated the "dog compartment had the AC was on 4" - well, the dog was not in the dog compartment. In fact, it was sitting in the passenger seat of the van with no protection, car seat, or restraint of any kind. Another red flag. Furthermore, as I waited for the driver to come back in case the dog went into greater distress and someone needed to take action to save his life, I was repeatedly calling their phone number and went through EVERY menu option just trying to find someone to talk to. In their email response, they also indicated that the dog was panting because it's "naturally anxious" - I don't know about you, but I would also be incredibly anxious if I were left alone in a steaming hot vehicle without knowing what's going on. I also have an anxious dog and there's a distinction between anxiety and overheating/borderline heat stroke panting. If the dog's owner being dropped off couldn't meet them at that moment, perhaps they should've gone to drop the second dog off first and then come back. Disappointing one customer is a lot better than putting a dog in a life-threatening situation. I would also recommend re-evaluating drop off communication procedures and scheduling. I can't speak for their other services, but please, please, think twice about using their pet transportation. All it takes is a few minutes for tragedy to strike, and at the end of the day, it's your fur baby, not theirs.

    What a strange journey it's been with Charlotte, one that has unfortunately ended with her calling…read moreme tonight after 8p to say that she couldn't be our cat sitter over my (repeated) request to her to not turn off light switches to external lights while she was watching our cats. (See pictures of text exchange). Charlotte keeps what I would consider very non-standard hours (AM visits to our home range from 10a on the early side to after Noon at times). PM visits were nearly always after 10p (often times near or after midnight), and per the video our security cameras would capture, mostly consisted of her turning on our TV and sitting on our couch after feeding our cats. Twice in two years I had to text her to come on our first day of being gone as she wrote the wrong dates down in her schedule. But, overall, the cats survived (they're cats, after all), so we put up with all of these oddities instead of finding someone new. Apparently my request to her to not turn off external light switches (which was clarified and confirmed over the phone with her to obviously only mean external lights) after her doing so led to an entire freezer of food spoiling in our garage was just too much(?). To top it all off, she ended the conversation with a catty (see what I did there?) comment of "good luck finding a cat sitter for Christmas," as if she wasn't aware that this is a booming business line in DC with many qualified professionals. Like I said, what a strange journey, indeed.

I looked through Yelp reviews and sent requests for quotes. Sit-A-Pet not only had the availability and got back to my request on time, but also sounded very professional and reliable on our consultation phone call. It took them only several hours to match my needs and address with a wonderful petsitter. I was very happy with the service and receiving daily updates. They were also very accommodating with my request to tip once I got back. One suggestion that I have would be to set up an online system for bookings, communication, and payments. I will use their services again.

They have always been responsive to my requests and helped me with the ever changing dietary needs of my Gizmo. Not only did they follow the feeding instructions, but they (Mika) gave me great feedback about how they were doing while I was gone. My home and litter boxes were always clean when I returned. After my older cat passed away, I could tell that Mika spent good quality time with Gizmo. He was happy to see me when I returned home, but he wasn't anxious from loneliness. I HIGHLY recommend Sit-a-pet!!!!
