Our Staff

What kind of person does it take to be a pet sitter? A dedicated one! Our pet sitters have a real sense of commitment to be there weekends, holidays, or at any given moment in an emergency. That takes a special type of person. Ask them why they do it and they will say, "Because we love it!" They get a great deal of satisfaction from caring for your animals. And their commitment is rewarded by pets that are happy to see their pet sitters time and time again. Sit-A-Pet sitters average 8 years on the job. Our sitters are dedicated not only to the job but to the company itself.

CPPS Certified

Certified Professional Pet Sitter with Pet Sitters International

Treat Your Pet!

Sit-A-Pet is the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area's oldest and most trusted pet sitting service.

When you have to leave town, enjoy peace of mind for the care of your pet and home.

Why impose on friend or neighbor? No matter what the occasion or weather, your professional pet sitter will be there when you're away. Sit-A-Pet is available mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays, 365 days a year to care for your beloved pets while you are away.

No kennel can match the comfort of your own home. Sit-A-Pet is the smart alternative. Most animals are more comfortable in their own surroundings and suffer less separation anxiety when they can remain in their own home. Knowing you will come home to a relaxed and contented pet will also make your trip more stress-free and enjoyable.

True pet lovers take to Sit-A-Pet's motto: Because there's no place like home!

Sit-A-Pet serves the following areas: Arlington, McLean, Vienna, Oakton, Falls Church, Washington, D.C., Bethesda, Chevy Chase, Takoma Park, Rockville and Silver Spring, in MD and VA.
