Update: I've been using AuPurr for nearly a decade now, and they are a godsend. Sondi is still able…read moreto fit my cats in when we have a last minute trip (even over the holidays), and her rates are very reasonable. I know that when I'm away from home, my cats are well taken care of. I've had a number of cat sitters over the years, and all have been excellent (minus one I had early on, who I wasn't sure actually came to the home and never sent pictures when I asked). I suspect that some of the bad reviews are for pet sitters, like the one mentioned above, that are now long gone. Still, you can meet with the sitter ahead of time, and I'd assume you could ask for a new sitter if you don't fully and completely trust the one assigned to you. If you need a pet sitter you can fully and completely trust, I'm particularly happy with my current sitter Sam(antha) -- who I've been using 5-10 times a year for the past four or so years. Samantha loves cats, and treats my cats like her own while I'm gone. When I check in on the cat camera, I'll find her playing with my young cat while simultaneously petting my older cat in just the way she likes. Additionally, Samantha reliably makes sure my older cat takes all her medicine. And she cleans up the older cat's messes (sigh) without complaint so that I don't come home to a home covered in cat poop. Plus, she always sends me pictures and updates, so that I don't have to worry when I'm gone. To boot, she's just an incredibly kind person. She's even checked in on me and the cats when there is bad weather, or something else going on in my neck of the woods. Whenever I have friends looking for a cat sitter, I always recommend AuPurr. They know, and love cats, and for that reason, I know that I can trust them with the lights of my life.

How could anyone cat sit for me, if they can't find my keys? Now I guess I'll have to pay to get new locks on my doors since I have no idea what happened to my keys. They also have my security system fob and that's missing as well. Thankfully all I need to do with it is change the code which I've done, but the fob is expensive and will have to be replaced. I strongly advise anyone considering this service to look elsewhere. If they can't find your keys, your cats are doomed.

We contacted her through email and got a quick response and she did a very thorough and complete consult to ensure our needs were met by her and her team. We met a few days before our departure which was day after Christmas. Within two days of our consult, one of our dogs became ill and had to be hospitalized during Christmas Eve due to reaction to a pain medication and was discharged Christmas Day. We contemplated canceling our vacation but didn't and relied on Gabriela and her team to take care of our dog while she recovered (slowly). She needed medications, extra attention, as well as taking care of another dog while we were away for 5 days. We almost canceled our trip but glad we didn't as Burke Center Pet Sitting took care of our fukids and helped our sick one recover during our absence. They communicated every day, checked in our dogs multiple times a day, dispensed medications, and cleaned up after a sick dog. Within the first day we were confident we made the right decision. I can go on about how great Burke Centre Pet Sitting is but the simplest way to put it is we put in their hands a dog that was hospitalized Christmas Eve and they were able to take care of her and make us comfortable to enjoy our vacation. I can't give any testimony better than that. If you are looking for a local (Fairfax/Burke area), professional, and caring Pet Sitting service Gabriela and Burke Centre Pet Sitting is the way to go. I'm so glad I found this company because we'll be a loyal customer for life.

Golie is the best!…read more My husband and I recently moved to the area. Having no trusted friends or relatives nearby, we were a little apprehensive about leaving our senior cat, Raven, with a pet sitter. However, once I met Golie, I knew that Raven was in great hands and my worry was gone. Golie far surpassed our expectations - and that is saying a lot! My husband and I are difficult to impress when it comes to our cat because we worry about her so much. Golie came prepared to our consultation meeting with all the right questions to ask and took notes the entire time. I had prepared a list of things to tell her, but didn't even need the list because she knew exactly what to ask! I knew that Raven would be in great hands. Thank you, Golie!

I met Golie while she was walking a dog in my former neighborhood. Based on the 10 minutes I spent…read morewith her I knew that she would be my dog sitter. I only had to sell my condo, find a house with a yard & adopt two dogs from the Humane Society. In the meantime, I ran into the owner of the dog she was walking & he gave her glowing reviews & her contact info. After I moved, I adopted my dogs & was ready to go on my pre--arranged vacation. I contacted Golie who did a home visit to meet my two pooches. Her professionalism & motivation was evident from the start. When I explained that Chico had to take several meds for his heart, she didn't flinch. I told her that Jesse had peed all over the doctors office when he was supposed to be providing moral support for Chico. She laughed & said "there are different forms of moral support." She is able to turn every instance into a positive even when I make fun of my dogs. They immediately loved her & I felt so confident to leave them in her very capable hands. I went overseas & Golie sent daily updates with pictures of their progress. They were hooked on the attention, love & care that she provided. When I returned she stopped by my house to pick up something & they sat at her feet while I stood on the opposite side of the kitchen. When I remarked on how attached they were next to her, she responded that she was there temporarily. She has taken care of very special needs pets without hesitation. When she tells me what she has to do with some I am astonished. She says "it's my job." Without hesitation I would recommend Golie to anyone who needs a dog sitter. Woof--woof

We started with puppy socialization classes with Colleen and were very excited to see how she interacted with the pups and their pawrents. She answered lots of questions others had about crate training, positive reinforcement and behavioral issues. We decided to put Storm into puppy obedience school so she'd learn how to interact and learn a few basic commands. She loved it! It took us a few classes to get her to be more comfortable but she's adjusted into a great dog and we know part of that is from the great training she received when she was only four months old. We also enrolled Storm into the intermediate course, because emergency recall was a concern of ours. Storm made lots of friends and enjoyed running around the classroom and drinking ALL the water! We also tried some one on one training with our older dog, a six year old Maltese with anxiety and leash aggression; but weren't able to really get to the root of the problem as every time we had Colleen over Jessie (our dog) acted like an angel! Colleen did give us some great tips on working with Jessie on leash aggression. If you're looking for some tips on training and obedience school for your furry legged children then we'd recommend giving Colleen and her team a call; we weren't disappointed and don't think you will be either. We've never used their dog walking service. So we can't speak to that.

Dog Tranquility and it's owner Colleen Dermott have truly been life savers for our family. Over…read moremany years and multiple dog training experiences, I can honestly say that our experience with Dog Tranquility and Colleen is the best we have ever had. She is very passionate about what she does and cares very much about customers and their pets alike. We have adopted dogs for years but two of our current pups were getting along so badly that they were having fights that drew blood. Since we adopt for life, giving one or both up was not an option. Colleen worked closely with our dogs and educated us as owners to address the issues. It was not easy but within only a couple of sessions Colleen had our dogs starting to peacefully interact and over time they have now become good friends. On the rare occasion when we have an issue, we now know how best to address both in the heat of the moment and afterwards to bring the two back together. I am hoping to continue working with Colleen to focus on additional basic obedience and training and to continue to address some lingering behavioral issues. I don't write a ton of reviews, preferring to only write when I have extraordinary experiences and this is one such case. I highly recommend Dog Tranquility; Colleen's experience and training far exceeds usual obedience & training options and the outcomes have been far more meaningful & longer lasting than other options we have tried.
