In-Home Pet Care for Falls Church Families Since 1993
Capital Petsitters has cared for Falls Church pets from our home base right here in the City since 1993. We aren’t a national app or an out-of-state call center — we’re your neighbors, and Falls Church is where more of our clients live than anywhere else we serve.
Every visit happens in your home, on your pet’s schedule, with a sitter you’ve met before service ever begins. No kennels, no pack walks, no rotating strangers.
Our Falls Church Services
Mid-Day Dog Walking. Built for the working professional. We come to your home while you’re at the office for a 20, 30, or 45-minute walk and play session — whether that’s every weekday or occasionally when a long day runs longer.
Vacation & Daily Visits. Cats, dogs, birds, fish, rabbits, and most small pets. We follow your routine exactly: same feeding times, same litter or yard cleanup, same spot on the couch. You get photo updates and visit notes after every single visit.
Overnight Care. For pets who do better with someone in the house. A sitter stays overnight in your home, keeping the evening and morning routine intact while you travel.
Medication Visits. Many of our Falls Church clients have senior or special-needs pets. Our sitters administer oral medication, injections, and subcutaneous fluids — including insulin and seizure medication — with the same care a vet tech would bring.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Falls Church
We cover the City of Falls Church and the surrounding neighborhoods, including Broadmont, Virginia Forest, Winter Hill, Cherry Hill, Greenway Downs, West Falls Church, East Falls Church, Seven Corners, Sleepy Hollow, Idylwood, and Pimmit Hills.

What Our Clients Say
We have had a wonderful experience with using Capital Petsitters to take care of our two cats. The website is very easy to use and allows for you to choose a time window for each visit. We have had trouble with other services that had “AM” and “PM” visits and the times when our cats were fed was extremely variable. With Capital Petsitters, we have chosen the window of time and our cat sitter is there within that window each time.
Kate H. — 5 stars on Google
Absolutely love Capital Petsitters! The walker I have for my dog is incredible and kind and my dog adores her. It’s so comforting having such a kind and reliable person to walk your pet. Everyone I’ve interacted with has been so kind and helpful. 10/10 would recommend using them.
