I cannot say enough about Metropawlitan and their staff! This is the first puppy I have needed a walking service for and reviewing several options. I took a leap of faith with this team. They have exceeded my expectations with professionalism, reliability and care for my puppy. Whenever I have a question, I am responded to quickly. My puppy was sick, they rushed her to my vet for me to meet them. I needed Someone to come and sit with her when she couldn't go out, not a problem! Isabelle has been our caretaker (walker is not a proper description, she does so much) My puppy is so excited to see her, will wait by the door for her if I am teleworking, and loves up on Isabelle upon her arrival. I know she is loved and in good hands. I only rate 5 stars because there is not a 6th, 7th or 8th! More...

My family PCSd to Hawaii this week and my spouse took our dog to be shipped out of Dulles the night before we were supposed to leave. Things did not go to plan and, even though we did everything we were supposed to, our pup missed his flight and had to be rebooked the next evening. I started frantically googling because our flights were at 7 AM. Someone I found through Google connected me with Metropawlitan Petsitters. Jude reached out and assured me that she could pick up our dog from our empty house and have him at Dulles with plenty of time to get on his rebooked flight. Not only did Jude deliver our pup with plenty of time, she also communicated with Alaska Air to make sure they knew to expect her. She stayed in constant communication (the pictures were so helpful to my distressed five year old) so we knew that our boy was checked in and on his way to board his plane. I cannot thank Jude and Metropawlitan Petsitters enough for coming through for us at the last minute. Moving is already stressful enough and the thought of our pup not making it was a lot. As my kiddo said, thanks for mailing our best friend! More...

It’s been great working with the team at Metropawlitan Petsitters. They have done a great job caring for Bella over the years. I really appreciate them stepping in last min to help me when I am stuck at work or have a last business trip. More...

Absolutely fantastic. The best part of my day is getting a message and a photo of my dog enjoying her walk. I'd give more stars if I could.

I highly recommend Metropawlitan Petsitters? I've used them for dog-walking and overnight stays, and have always had positive experiences. I trust them completely ti take great care of my "kids". More...

Ewa is the best dog walker I have EVER had. So much so that when I moved a few years back, I factored her walking territory into my move. My dog can be a bit anxious and she's amazing with him. Plus her post dog walking updates always give me a chuckle(ie: "Apollo met a girl today" with a picture attached).Couldn't recommend Ewa and the Metropawlitan crew enough for your fur babies mid-day needs.

We've only had good experiences with Metropawlitan.  Our dog has been well-taken care of -- particularly, when we're traveling but can't take her along with us.  Metropawlitan's service has given us great peace-of-mind.  We appreciate the owner's personal touch and interest in the well-being of our dog.  We can always reach her easily.  It's great to see the updates available from anywhere.

Our caring walkers in Arlington, Alexandria, Annandale and Falls Church will give your new puppy the extra special, individualized care needed at this critical stage of development and socialization. In addition to covering the basics of feeding and walking, we will adhere to particular protocols to reinforce training.

We offer overnights for dogs and cats. Although most of our pets feel comfortable knowing they are checked on regularly throughout the period you are out-of-town, half-hour pet sitting visits, and even multiple per day, might not be adequate for your pet care needs. Some pets might not be accustomed to being left alone overnight while other pets become destructive and howl or meow if they are alone during nighttime hours. Puppies also need extra attention and opportunities to relieve themselves throughout the night as they become potty trained.
