Why Choose Pet Sitting 4 Comfort® (PS4C)?

Family-Owned. Certified. Trusted Since 2016.
Serving Ballston, Clarendon & Rosslyn – Arlington, VA

 

We’re not a gig app. We’re not a franchise. We’re a small, family-run pet care team built on trust, consistency, and years of hands-on experience.

 

Since 2016, families across Arlington have chosen Pet Sitting 4 Comfort® (PS4C) for our personalized approach, certified care, and strong client relationships. Every visit is performed or supervised by our co-founders, Steve and Hong, or a thoroughly trained team member—never a stranger.

What Sets PS4C Apart?

Family-Run Since Day One – You always know who’s coming to your home
Fear Free Certified® – We prioritize comfort, patience, and gentle handling
Medical Experience – Specialized support for seniors, post-op pets, and shy rescues
No Apps, No Surprises – Just reliable, relationship-based care
Consistent Communication – Transparent updates in your Time To Pet portal

 

We’re your neighbors, not a company with rotating contractors or call center support.
