Pet Sitting Services in Clifton, VA

After having been operating in Northern Virginia for over 10 years, it’s no surprise that Paw Pals has found itself a central member of the pet sitting community.

Paw Pals is happy to provide a variety of services to pet owners, from taking care of your pet in your home, letting them outside and on walks around the neighborhood, and even taking care of the house while you’re away or unable to. Below is a full list of our offered services:

Paw Pals is overjoyed to be able to assist pet owners in many ways, from dog walking, taking care of your pet and home while you are away, or even driving your pet to grooming or vet appointments. Check out our full list of services:

Mid-Day Pet Visits

Many pet owners find their pets home alone during the day because of school or work schedules. Paw Pals can come by for daily walking during these times.

Mid-Day Pet Visits Pricing

Weekend and After-Hours Pet Visits

At Paw Pals, we realize that no one works on the exact same schedule. If your needs fall at off hours, don’t worry. We can be flexible with our scheduling.

Weekend and After-Hours Pet Visits Pricing

Vacation Visits (Non-Overnight)

Some pets are more comfortable kept at home while owners are away. Paw Pals pet sitters can come by to provide some T.L.C. while also taking care of the house.

Vacation Visits (Non-Overnight) Pricing

Keep your pets happy in their regular routine. Professional, guaranteed care for when you travel, eliminating stress for both you and your pets. We will take care of your pets and take care of minor household tasks while you are away, such as bringing in papers and mail, alternating lights, opening/closing blinds, watering plants. (Excessive plant watering may incur an additional charge, see House Sitting/Garden Watering Services)

Please note, for the well-being of your pets, dogs require at least 3 visits per day, and cats require at least 1 visit every 24 hours. Visit durations may be mixed. Homes with both dogs and cats will usually be charged only the dog visit rate. Homes with only small critters and birds (rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, and fish) will usually be charged the kitty visit rate. Otherwise these pets can usually be cared for at no additional charge at the dog or kitty rate.

Dogs are treated as part of the family when they stay with our sitters, and you’ll return home to find them with a smile on their face! To be eligible for bed & biscuit, dogs must be social, friendly, house trained, and be current on their shots and flea & tick medication.

This service costs $50 per night for one dog.  Additional dogs are $25 per night.
Regular daytime vacation feeding/walk rates also apply. (see Vacation Visits above)

  • You will be going away for a while and instead of having someone take care of your pet at your home, you’d like someone to watch them at theirs.

I wasn't sure about hiring a new doggie walker service... after all they are our kiddos... my babies were in great hands and I felt relaxed having them in their care. Thank you for everything!

When we adopted our new dog in January, Paw Pals agreed to walk her and give her some outside time so she wasn't in the crate all day. She loved her dog walker and you could see her excitement every time the walker showed up. We moved out of the area but would recommend Paw Pals to anyone needing someone to care for their pets.

We have used Paw pals pet sitting on multiple occasions for our bunnies while we are away. Many pet sitters are not interested in small pets however; Mary and her team, are amazing and we trust her implicitly! We are very happy with the outstanding service we have received from her team including texts and photos of our pets when we are out of town. They always go the extra mile and we highly recommend them!

We have been using Paw Pals for several years, and through a variety of pets that we have loved. Mary and her team have always been *exceptional* in every way. They are professional, courteous, and truly love our fur family! Mary herself is an organized and stellar administrator of her pet care business, keeping detailed records of our pet’s needs, scheduled pet visits, payments, and balance due easy to keep track of as the pet owner. The pet caretaking team is reliable and trustworthy. When our dogs see any of their Paw Pal friends, they get SO excited to see them! Follow up comments are left via text to keep the pet owner informed of the visit and how the pets are faring. Paw Pals has allowed our family the peace of mind to leave our pets at home, for work, weekend getaways and longer times away when necessary, where they are the most comfortable and familiar. We are grateful to Mary and her team for giving us the ability to enjoy pet ownership without feeling tied down. The responsibility of having pets comes with the need to keep them safe and comfortable at all times, and Mary and her team affords us this when our family has to be away.
