DB22306Thursday December 1, 2022
We always have a fantastic experience with Alexandria Pet Care. They are responsive, professional, and genuine animal lovers. Highly recommend
KP22314Tuesday November 15, 2022
I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place! Not many places come for rat visits! Our pet rats were so well taken care of. Mac was amazing with them and she seemed to genuinely love rats. We got messages and pictures every visit. It got a little pricey because they needed to come twice a day to give one of our rats antibiotics, but it was money well spent.
AM22303Thursday September 29, 2022
Alexandria Pet Care watched our pets for the first time this weekend. Their updates every time they came and the pictures they sent were fantastic! Gave us total peace of mind. Never had to worry. Highly recommend them.
HF22309Monday August 29, 2022
I used Alexandria Pet Care for 2 walks per day for our puppy and they were fantastic. They provide a description and pictures for every visit. The walkers were very friendly and enjoyed visiting with my puppy. I would recommend them to anyone looking for dog walkers in their service area.
WM22301Friday July 22, 2022
The dog walkers were excellent. They provided loving great care for my dog. I recommend their services highly. They have a zoom call with you where you get to meet the dog walkers in advance where they introduce themselves to you. This is a standard that I would recommend for all pet care services. They knew me and my dog in advance. They showed how much they care. I have had many dog walkers over the years with my 7 dogs. They were dependable, responsive, understanding, caring and professional.
DD22301Thursday July 7, 2022
We have been using Alexandria Pet Care for years (typically when we go on vacation) and we cannot speak more highly of the positive experience and reliability. There is a very noticeable degree of care given, both to our pet but also to make us feel comfortable that she is taken care of while we are away. The owners are truly wonderful and caring people. This service is a tremendous value to our family and we would highly highly recommend it.
PP22308Monday July 4, 2022
I love the pictures and check list after each visit. I never worry that our dogs are being neglected and I'm so happy to have a professional team looking after them in the comfort of our home rather than having to use a kennel situation. Very kind and obviously love animals.
RB22314Wednesday June 29, 2022
Alexandria Pet Care is great! Absolutely dependable, thoroughly professional, and great with animals. We never hesitate to leave our two cats in their care when we travel, and get lots of updates and pictures that reassure us that they are well cared for when we are away. They also pick up mail, papers and parcels, turn off and on porch lights, and generally make sure that our house looks "lived in." Great company.
PH22301Tuesday June 21, 2022
Alexandria Pet Care is the top-notch standard all pet care businesses should be measured against! I picked them based on reviews here on Yelp, and was absolutely blown away by their professionalism, attention to detail, knowledge, and business operation. Communication with the team is impeccable. I was impressed by the intake interview, it was clear each member was experienced with all types of pets, as well as the area. They asked all the right questions, and were clearly paying attention to instructions.
The pet portal website they use is great for making sure you can leave instructions and information, contact info, etc. It is easy to use, access, and understand. It was extremely easy to schedule a visit and pay the invoice afterwards.
I took a business trip and was highly impressed. The team showed up when promised, paid attention to feeding instructions, and took extra time to play with and comfort my cat while I was away. They provided a photo and visit feedback promptly. My apartment was always left secure and clean, and my cat was happy, healthy, and loved while I was gone.
I will certainly recommend Alexandria Pet Care to anyone in need of someone to watch over their furkids!
JG22314Sunday May 22, 2022
Alexandria pet care professionals are just that… Professionals. They’re loving and caring. Have been very happy with them over the past four years. Great staff.
MS22314Sunday April 3, 2022
We love Alexandria Pet Care. They have watched our senior lab many times, and we have always been happy. They are consistent and caring and always send messages and photos to reassure us that our little old man is ok. They are excellent with communication. Highly recommend!
MH22314Thursday March 10, 2022
I’ve used Alexandria Pet Care twice and highly recommend their services. They’ve provided excellent care to my two aging kitties while making sure the house stays clean and safe. Their app is wonderful - it allows you to provide key information on your pets, schedule visits, and make payments, while care providers send daily updates and photos. They provide great peace of mind and my cats love their visits!
LM22307Tuesday March 8, 2022
The entire APC team is fantastic! They've taken such great care of our cats over the years. Their daily updates (often with pics) are so cute and much appreciated.
MK22304Thursday February 3, 2022
I love this business! I feel very confident that my pet is taken care of each time they visit. I always receive a detailed message and photo to confirm that all is well. My pet has a personal team of walkers so he is never surprised by someone new. The staff is kind and always professional. I highly recommend Alexandria Pet Care.
TJ22304Tuesday January 25, 2022
Alexandria Pet Care does a terrific job caring for our pets. Easy to book visits. We appreciate the friendly, professional and reliable team at APC.
SC22307Saturday January 8, 2022
The Alexandria Pet Care team are amazing! I've been working with them for several years now, as they are the best to care for my two kitties when I'm not there. They are so supportive and responsive, always being flexible to meet my needs and helping out in a pinch when needed. I love the on-line portal, which allows me to communicate with the team, they can update me easily on any issues, and best of all, they post pictures of the cats which makes me smile when I'm missing them. I also appreciate that they take care to bring in mail, water plants, and just look after the house - especially appreciated during long visits. So grateful for their support!!
JY22314Tuesday November 2, 2021
We truly appreciate Alexandria Pet Care. They are dependable and super easy to schedule. They care lovingly for our older gentleman dog and always send photos and updates on all services rendered. We especially love that they come to our home so our old man doesn't have to go to a kennel anymore.
MH22314Tuesday October 26, 2021
SUCH a relief knowing I've found a good pet sitter in the area
SS22303Thursday October 21, 2021
Wonderful people, daily updates, creative problem solving!
EL22314Wednesday October 20, 2021
I love them so much. They spend quality time with my kitties and make sure they have everything they need. I never worry leaving my two cats under their care. They are, simply put, the best.
MJ22314Saturday October 16, 2021
Excellent! They are very reliable, professional & experienced!
SP22303Wednesday October 13, 2021
The team at Alexandria Pet Care takes great care of our two greyhounds! We have them stop by once or twice a week (based on COVID telework/office schedules) to give the dogs a backyard break. The pictures that the sitters post say it all: Our pups get lots of attention and love the visits! I also appreciate APC's flexibility when I call to make last-minute schedule changes. They always come through, which is a relief when COVID makes things so unpredictable. Yes, you may pay more, but you're paying for a team that can respond to changes and peace of mind that your pets are cared for.
EC22304Saturday October 2, 2021
We are SO appreciative of your care and continued service thru the pandemic, and before that as well. As we have shared before, we really are lucky to have your team on our team and we can't make our lives 'GO' when there isn't reliable and caring pet care--which you provide.
KK22307Wednesday August 25, 2021
I love the regular updates and our cat loves Elle. We also get wonderful photographs. The online portal makes communication easy.
DS22301Friday June 25, 2021
We've used Alexandria Pet Care several times and have had nothing but positive experiences. The staff are professional, responsive, and reliable and we always have the peace of mind knowing our pets are in good hands!
MR22301Friday June 11, 2021
We are thrilled to be traveling again and also to be able to send business your way. Everyone we've worked with from Alexandria Pet Care has been fantastic!
KS22314Monday May 17, 2021
I can’t recommend Alexandria Pet Care highly enough! They offer lots of different pet-care services depending on your needs, and everyone I’ve interacted with has been amazingly caring and responsive.
CB22314Wednesday March 3, 2021
We strongly recommend Alexandria Pet Care! We have relied on their professional and personalized service for years. Their friendly staff takes great care of a wide variety of pets.
TW22308Thursday February 11, 2021
Great service, especially during the pandemic. Communicative, thorough, fairly priced. I had two happy kitties waiting for me when I returned from my short trip. Definitely recommend.
SC22314Sunday January 10, 2021
You did a wonderful job over thanksgiving break with our kitties, and you all went above and beyond with bringing in the packages and even putting away the food that was ordered!! So we were very impressed with your services and will certainly be reaching out to you guys for all out pet care needs in the future.
NL22314Wednesday December 9, 2020
The personalized service I've received is just over the top. We have a large rescue dog who has insecurity issues. APC has worked through a step by step plan with us and our walking team to help him adjust to new people. Their knowledge of dog issues and insecurities and their persistence in finding workable solutions for a sweet but scared big ole mush of a dog has made us a customer for life. We feel like family and I trust them with my treasures. Thank you APC!
SZ22309Tuesday December 8, 2020
What I love most about Alexandria Pet Care is their dedication to caring for my cats—and that I never worry about my cats when I’m away. Alexandria Pet Care has cared for my cats for more than 11 years. I can’t think of enough superlatives to describe their professionalism and trustworthiness. I’ve sometimes suspected that my cats got more interesting playtime with them than from me.
PJ22303Monday December 7, 2020
A great job taking care of my two dogs last week. They did a nice job adapting to new procedures due to COVID to ensure everyone’s safety when first meeting me and my dogs who are a bit nervous when first meeting people. After our meetings I felt comfortable leaving my dogs in their care while I was out of town. They followed all directions I left for the team and my dogs. I really enjoyed the updates during my trip including the pictures. Elizabeth and her team did a great job of helping me not worry about my dogs while I was away. I highly recommend Alexandria Pet Care!
AS22301Monday November 30, 2020
We couldn't be happier with Alexandria Pet Care. The comments each time they visit, often with pictures of our happy dogs, really put our minds at ease. Our dogs were relaxed and healthy when we arrived home. Nice people, great communication.
RB22314Friday November 20, 2020
APC has always provided us with quality services! I have peace of mind when traveling because I trust their staff, routine and updates while I’m away. I would recommend their services to anyone needing care for their fur babies!
LR22314Sunday November 15, 2020
We have been using Alexandria Pet Care for the past year and they have been great. Andy took care of our cat this past week and he did a great job. The front office is very responsive and their website is very easy to use with scheduling visits and paying invoices.
ED22314Wednesday October 14, 2020
Fantastic pet sitters, quick to respond, great with pets. Having to leave my cats is always stressful but knowing that someone is going to come and play with them (and send me photos!) helps. I’ve been through a slew of foster cats as well and they’ve always been great with the ever-changing roster at my apartment.
JR22305Tuesday September 15, 2020
Everyone is absolutely wonderful. I felt like they treated my house as if it was their own. My cat knocked a planter over, breaking it, and Andy found a spare planter outside and repotted the poor cactus. He went above and beyond, and I doubt I’ll use anyone else for pet sitting ever again!
JA22301Thursday August 27, 2020
Such a wonderful company! Our pet was happy (which I knew because of the daily updates and photos) and our caretaker even kept and eye on the house, gathered mail, and really helped me relax and enjoy my time away. Thank you!
LJ22302Thursday August 13, 2020
I'm delighted! I’m truly grateful for the daily updates and photos of Auden. She was in a great mood when I returned.
DS22314Tuesday August 11, 2020
We're so happy that you guys have been able to hang on through this 2020 craziness; you're the best pet sitters I've ever had!
CB22314Wednesday July 8, 2020
We've been using Alexandria Pet Care for the past year and a half. They are extremely organized and reliable. We don't need walking everyday, but periodically based on our work schedules/short trips. They do an excellent job of communicating during/after walks and they are much more professional than other dog walking companies we've used. I like that they always have a new employee tag along with a familiar walker for your pet, so your dog is never seeing someone for the first time on their own. The service is a little more expensive than we've laid previously but we feel its worth the quality of service.
ES22314Tuesday January 14, 2020
For the last 6 years, APC has taken excellent care of our cat during our travels. Their team is very skilled and communicative, and I loved receiving regular photos and updates. No detail was too much to ask; from collecting our mail to running out for meds. Most of all, they gave us peace of mind and we always felt our cat was safe and in good hands. We highly recommend them for all of your pet-care needs.
KM22314Monday January 6, 2020
We had a wonderful experience with Alexandria Pet Care and are very pleased with their services! We left our cats in their care for five days during a holiday weekend, during which we got updates for each visit and were able to see the times they visited, all of which were within timeframes requested. They also sent cute pictures and went above and beyond in every way. They provided excellent care and we came home to a lovely journal documenting their visits and funny ways our cats behaved. We loved their professional team approach, and we will definitely use them again. Thank you, Alexandria Pet Care!!
RE22303Thursday January 2, 2020
Everything was perfect! Alfie was well taken care of and a happy bunny when we returned home.
SS22302Monday December 30, 2019
We're so grateful for all of your help over the years taking care of Boris and Stevens during our travels. From day 1, we were so impressed with APC's team and the level of service and care you provided for our cat friends!
KJ22314Tuesday December 3, 2019
This is a great company! They always give us and our pets personalized service while we are out of town. The app has visit reports and sometimes photos so we can rest easy while we are gone.
MM22301Friday November 29, 2019
We are very grateful for the amazing care you give our Sophia and Lola!
DT22311Friday November 1, 2019
Thank you so much for the amazing care you gave my fur babies, it is MUCH appreciated!
MG22301Wednesday June 12, 2019
You all are amazing and I appreciate how much I can count on you!
MM22314Friday June 7, 2019
We were delighted with your service for our dog Cody last week when we had to go to a funeral. All went very smoothly because of your attention to detail and it gave us peace of mind. We are grateful for your very professional services.
DF22309Friday May 31, 2019
Alexandria Pet Care does a terrific job caring for our pets. I have used other services in the past, but APC is much more professional and reliable. The friendly and caring team delivers every time.
TB22308Wednesday May 22, 2019
I cannot say enough good things about Alexandria Pet Care! They are a team of professionals that have made my life, and my 3 dogs lives, so much better. Their highly trained, top-level professionals have not only given my dogs expert care but have shown empathy and uncommon grace to our entire family. I don't use the word often, but these people (backed by the fantastic office staff and Elizabeth, APC's owner) have been nothing short of a blessing to us all. I heartily and sincerely recommend their services!
MR22314Thursday May 2, 2019
I have used Alexandria Pet Care for midday dog walking for over 5 years - initially with a very senior dog and more recently, for my young high energy terrier. Alex Pet Care has been just great - professional & responsible; always there as scheduled, will let me know if something is amiss and just wonderful in handling my pup. He’s happy to see Laura and she helps me by reinforcing his basic training. Alexandria Pet Care is the best in Alexandria.
ME22301Monday April 15, 2019
Thank you so much for taking such good care of Anna! When I got back she was still asleep on the couch. She is much less anxious after your visits when we get back home.
JC22305Friday April 12, 2019
This is the first time I've used a pet service, and you all are great! Thank you!
LP22304Friday April 5, 2019
Thanks much to Elle and Cole for their support during our travel. Appreciate you guys so much!
VD22314Monday April 1, 2019
Andy did a great job caring for the cats! Love your service.
SN22304Monday March 25, 2019
We have just returned and greeted Cody. Reading your terrific notes. Thank you for your attention and loving care!
DF22308Tuesday March 19, 2019
Our eternal thanks for your help with Sasha's dog training. She's made some huge strides forward in the past couple of weeks. I think a lot of it has to do with, as you suggested, confining her and teaching her to appreciate her crate. We've now gotten her to stay in her crate for up to 4 hours without us home. When we're home, she frequently just hangs out in the crate, chews on her toys, or just takes a nap. I'd say she still needs to make a lot more progress with people entering the house, as well as some herding/nipping tendencies, but we also recognize this is an ongoing process and it'll just take time.
DH22301Tuesday March 5, 2019
I was very happy with the service you provided!! Thankyou for taking care of my most important little creature to me.
VD22314Friday March 1, 2019
You are the best! Bama sure loves his afternoon walks with you!
MK22307Thursday February 28, 2019
Thanks so much for the excellent care our kitties received! We've returned and everything is perfect. Such a wonderful service!!
DP22304Thursday January 3, 2019
Many thanks to Andy for the great care he gives Fred!
TM22304Tuesday January 1, 2019
Thank you again SO much for taking such great care of our pups. We really appreciate all of the TLC you show them, the pics of the dogs and all of the extras that you help out with (mail, packages..bringing in torn up presents from the yard..)
CL22308Friday December 28, 2018
Thanks again for taking care of my Sebastienne muffin! I am really grateful he had such loving care and really enjoyed reading his updates and seeing he was in good hands.
LC22314Monday December 3, 2018
I just want to thank you for being a great company and giving all pet owners peace of mind while away. I have never had to worry about my cat while away and I truly appreciate that.
TJ22314Saturday November 24, 2018
You guys have been an invaluable service for us. And your customer service is great. We couldn’t be happier.
EK22306Thursday November 8, 2018
I trust the people here. That's all I can say. My husband and I have been using them over the years and they have never let us down. We don't need a pet sitter that often, but when we do they are always spot on. Our last dog was elderly and sick and there were times when we needed special care for her, or even had to cancel at the last minute because she was too sick for us to travel. I know I am a pain in the neck sometimes, but the one thing I know is that they are a trustworthy group and worth every penny.
