Loving families available for dog sitting
Lulu
Arlington, VABreed: Australian Cattle Dog
Weight: 25 lbs
Age: 5 years old
Gender: Female
Hi, we are the family of three (6th grader) in Arlington looking for occasional boarding&swap when we go on vacation and occasional playdate with other dogs. We love outdoor activities with our dog, Lulu, and with weather permitting, we hit the trails and dog friendly places near and far. Our dog Lulu is a 4 year old petite (~25lb) Australian Cattle Dog (Blue heeler) who is moderate energy dog. Lulu is shy at first but will soon warm up to any human&dog. Lulu loves to go hiking & sniffery, and loves to play fetch & flirt pole. Lulu is a food driven (loves her treat), not aggressive, and good with the kids of all ages. Lulu usually starts out cordial with first time dogs. If she did not hit it right off, she will learn to coexist first and when familiarized herself enough, starts playing with other dogs. Love to meet a other pawrents in the neighboring areas!!

Hey All. I am Brooke. I am a nurse and babysitter who is a new dog mom. I enjoy running, hiking, and trying out new things in the area. I am excited to be a new dog mom, but a little nervous too with all of the things I am going to have to learn. I hope to meet some “pawrents” and your pups! From the dog: Helllllook. My name is Kimber. I love to run, be active, and chase after a ball or frisbee. I enjoy the company of other dogs. Although, I am a little shy at first but will not leave you alone once I get to know you. I am new to the area and looking for friends and my mom is looking for pawrents to hang out with. I hope we can help each other out!

Miley & Bo
Arlington, VABreed: Mutt
Weight: 45 lbs
Age: 1 year old
Gender: Female
Breed: Mixed Breed
Weight: 40 lbs
Age: 1 year old
Gender: Male
Hi! Miley and Bo are brother and sister who are a very sweet pair. They both like to cuddle and play games. Miley is very smart and food motivated. She can be a little shy and introverted at first but warms up. Bo can be a bit more derpy but will do anything for a belly rub. They have been working on building their confidence in this big scary world. They get along with everyone they meet but can be skeptical of new people at first. They love to play chase. They are both heavy chewers but only of their dog toys and boxes that we give them.

Kaylee
Arlington, VABreed: Alaskan Husky
Weight: 45 lbs
Age: 13 years old
Gender: Female
Kaylee is a fun Husky-German Shepherd mix, though she's getting up there in age. She's very sweet, even though she's still likely to steal food at her level. Currently, I'm at home full time, so any pets will have lots of attention and plenty of opportunities to go out. We do have a cat at home, so keep that in mind!
Winnie
Arlington, VABreed: Golden Retriever
Weight: 60 lbs
Age: 3 years old
Gender: Female
Winnie is my 3 year old Golden retriever and usually fits the bill for the breed - cute and cuddly and loving pets! She usually gets a walk before and after work and is let out mid day (I work from home). I travel frequently for work and would be interested in potentially a semi regular dog sitting trade. Winnie can be a bit nervous around new people and dogs, and doesn’t have much experience having dogs staying at “her” house, so I would love to set up a few play dates before any sitting and am also interested in finding “dog friends” regardless of dog sitting needs.
