“Jannelle was so sweet with my 5-month-old puppy. My dog is a little nervous right now since she is so new, but Jannelle still got her out and about! Also, thank you so much for responding on such late notice.”

About: I’m a reliable and attentive pet caregiver who prioritizes safety, routine, and comfort. I’m experienced in reading dog body language, recognizing stress signals, and providing calm, structured care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and keep owners updated for peace of mind. Morning walk or potty break Uses your habit of showing up on time and following routines • Feed & refresh water Same focus you already use with schedules and procedures • Quick behavior check Noticing stress signs (ears back, whale eye, pacing) I also understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to build trust and make sure they feel comfortable with me. I provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re away.

“Kaylee was reliable, professional, and friendly crouching down to meet my bostie at her level upon greeting — scoring immediate points in our hearts! Binx met her with an enthusiastic wiggle butt each subsequent walk visit (used 3 days in a row while I’m on crutches), which told me everything I needed to know. Kaylee handled my dog’s reactivity to squirrels and other dogs with confidence, making me feel completely at ease as well. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend Kaylee for her sweet spirit and understanding of short-nosed small dog needs amidst DC summer heat.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my love for animals! I am a graduate student who doesn’t have any pets of her own and miss my pets at home. I would love the opportunity to house or pet sit for you. I will take care of your pet/house as if it is my own. I am free to house-sit for all needs! I am home almost all of the day and would be able to take the dogs out whenever. I live in a apartment which I keep very clean and tidy. I live with my boyfriend who works from home so he will also be there to help out. The apartment complex has several grassy areas to take the animals out. As well as nearby parks for walks.

“Jada and Naz walked our two poodle mixes at 10pm every night while my husband was out of town for 18 nights. One of our dogs is anxious and reactive, but they were able to work with her kindly and effectively. They had very good communication and were good-spirited even when it was raining.”
