Dog Sitting Andrews AFB

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life! I adopted my first dog, Beth, in 2015 when she was just 14 weeks old! Through her, I learned what it means to make sacrifices for others while also loving the process! She was very easy to train on my own, but sometimes her intelligence causes her to be mischievous! During the pandemic, I adopted my second dog, Buz at 8 months old. Unfortunately, he was a stray and came with severe resource guarding leading to numerous fights with Beth. Because of this, I put him in multiple rounds of training and learned for myself what it means to support dogs through and watch for triggers dealing with aggression. Because of them both, I am very watchful of dog behaviors and am not afraid of big barks! If I could, I’d have many more dogs! I am a teacher in SE DC, so during the school year, my availability is primarily evenings and weekends. During the summer, my availability is very open! I am very attentive and respectful of others homes, dogs, and instructions. Knowing that my own dogs take a minute to warm up to someone knew, I will be sure to follow specific routines or guidance given! Your home will remain as it was when I enter!

About: Pups 'N Us Pet Care Services has proudly served pets and their families throughout the DMV area since 2021. As a family-owned business, we are committed to providing safe, reliable, and personalized care for every pet entrusted to us. I am currently pursuing a career in veterinary medicine as a Veterinary Technician and am Fear Free Certified, allowing me to provide care that prioritizes your pet's emotional well-being and comfort. My experience includes caring for puppies, senior pets, anxious pets, and pets with special medical needs. I am comfortable administering oral, topical, eye, and ear medications and have experience with ear cleanings, nail trims, bandage care, wound monitoring, and post-surgical support. Our goal is simple: provide a safe, enriching, and loving environment where pets can thrive while giving their families complete peace of mind. Pups 'N Us was also honored as a Neighborhood Favorite on Nextdoor in 2024, and we are grateful for the trust our community continues to place in us. My schedule allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, playtime, enrichment activities, and individualized attention throughout the day. I work hard to maintain your pet's normal routine whenever possible, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, exercise, and rest periods. Whether your pet enjoys active play or prefers a quieter environment, care is tailored to their unique personality and needs. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my highest priorities. As a Veterinary Technician and Fear Free Certified pet care provider, I understand how important it is to create a calm, low-stress environment where pets feel safe and secure. I carefully monitor all pets in my care and take time to learn their routines, preferences, and individual needs. I have experience caring for senior pets, puppies, anxious pets, and pets requiring medication administration. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment and prioritize positive interactions, proper introductions, supervision, and plenty of opportunities for both enrichment and rest. I treat every pet as if it were my own and believe trust is earned through communication, reliability, and compassionate care. Pups 'N Us is a cage-free, open atmosphere. We allow all our paw pals to roam around the home as if it were their own. We treat all our guests as if they were our own pups. What sets us apart is not just our years of experience, but our commitment and love for community and family. We treat each pup as unique, catering to their specific needs and preferences while creating lifelong relationships with our pup parents. We are so happy that we get to meet so many new pups and their families. We are excited to welcome you all to the pack!

“Mikela was very personable and very communicative when we did our virtual meet and greet. Our kitty is very old and needed some extra care and she was very understanding and helpful about it. We were away with no service except for emergencies/ rare service spots so when we were able to check in she was very fast with responding and giving us updates. We super appreciated her and her attention to detail and how well our little old lady was cared for. We would absolutely book her again. Thank you Mikela!”

“Nyair is the absolute best pet sitter. She watched our cats over Thanksgiving break. We booked 4 days. She was patient, caring, considerate and professional. She is my permanent pet sitter!”

About: My name is Ashley and I believe that every dog deserves love and attention. I've ALWAYS had a love for dogs. Growing up I had a Shih-Tzu for 17 years. I would absolutely LOVE the opportunity to take care of dogs during my free time. I will play, walk, and feed as part of my responsibilities. I welcome dogs into my home with the most care. Also, I'm available for long term stays at my home. If you have any additional questions, feel free to send me a message!

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, I provide more than just walks — I provide safe, loving, and attentive care tailored to every pup’s unique personality and needs. My background includes fostering dogs, working in a professional dog boarding facility, volunteering in animal shelters, and gaining experience in an animal hospital setting, which has given me the skills to confidently care for dogs of all breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. As a dedicated fur mom myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I treat every dog like family and focus on creating a comfortable, stress-free, and fun experience while you’re away. Whether your pup needs extra patience, structured care, medication support, playtime, or simply lots of love and attention, I’m committed to making them feel safe, happy, and cared for every step of the way. I pride myself on reliability, communication, and building genuine bonds with both pets and owners. Your dog’s well-being will always be my top priority. My schedule is structured to make sure every dog in my care gets the time, attention, exercise, and consistency they deserve. I currently work full-time Monday through Thursday from 4 PM–12 AM, so on those days I’m available for morning and noon visits, walks, drop-ins, feedings, potty breaks, and quality playtime before heading to work. Friday through Sunday, I have open availability and can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and nighttime care as needed. I always try to be flexible and communicate clearly with pet parents so I can provide the best care possible for each dog’s routine and individual needs. With my years of hands-on experience working with dogs in boarding facilities, shelters, fostering, and animal hospitals, I understand how important reliability, patience, and personalized care are for both pets and owners. When caring for pets in their homes, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I understand that every dog is different, so I tailor my care to each pet’s specific needs, routine, and personality. Whether it’s walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medication, cuddles, or giving extra patience to anxious pets, I make sure your fur baby receives the same love and attention they’re used to at home. During walks and pet sitting visits, I focus on safety, communication, and making sure your pet is happy, exercised, and well cared for every step of the way.

“Heather has been so helpful coming in to check on the dogs while my husband and I work a busy schedule! She is so thoughtful and caring with the dogs! We are so grateful for her help!!”

“Best dog walker I have had through Roer and overall. Doggie and momma loves him!!”

“Awesome sitter!! My pup seemed extremely relaxed when I returned and even more responsive. Definitely will be using Roderick again.”

Jermar B.

“She really went above and beyond taking care of my cat. I got thoughtful updates, photos, and could tell my cat was genuinely comfortable and cared for the whole time. It made being away so much less stressful. I came home to a happy cat and everything in great shape. I’d absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

About: I provide attentive, personalized care shaped by eight years as a dog owner. I’m experienced with oral medications and IVs, and comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, and pets needing extra love, care and support. I typically work from home, so I’m available to give your baby plenty attention, love and walks throughout the day and night. I’m available for boarding mostly on the weekends and some week days. Please reach out to coordinate! Your pet will be the only animal in my home at a time, ensuring they get my full attention. To keep them happy, stimulated, and safe, we’ll go on leashed neighborhood walks and visit fenced dog parks where they can socialize and run freely.

“Uduak was wonderful! She was communicative with my husband and I, and very patient with my pup who is not comfortable with new people. Uduak followed instructions to a tee, and also used her discernment in caring for Mozzy (even cleaning up an accident he had without us requesting she do so). 10 out of 10 would recommend. We will definitely be using her services again in the future.”

Loren H.

“Mya is a Godsend!! After going through a couple subpar dog sitters, Mya is such a breath of fresh air. She responds quickly and is always on time. She takes the time to map out the routes that she walked with our pup and sent pictures every visit, as well as a summary of the day. Our pup truly loves her and she was a huge asset in helping to care for our him amidst our crazy schedules.”

Jenny B.

“Sereniti was great. Ginger loved her. Sereniti was patient and really worked with Ginger to become her friend. Always on time and reliable. Great personality.”

About: I’ve always loved working with animals and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and providing calm care for shy or anxious pets. I’m very attentive to behavior and body language and always aim to make pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule. I’m available for walks and drop-ins. Mornings and early afternoons work best Monday-Sunday. I prioritize giving each pet the most amount of exercise and attention while keeping their routines and schedules consistent and stress-free. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority so I create a calm, clean environment. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, exercise, and routines. In addition to that, I closely monitor your pets during walks and playtime. Recently I began including regular updates with photos and texts so you feel confident while you’re away.

About: Hi! My name is Anjelica. I am a dog person and a cat person but if I am to be honest I have gotten a huge soft spot for cats since having 2 of my own. I have pet sit for people many times over the past couple of years, cats and dogs. Whether it involved me going to their house, walking them, or having them come to my house for a couple of hours. I have a car so I am able to drive to wherever I’m needed and am available most days! Like I said you can trust me with your fur baby. I am particular with how I feed my own cats so I understand certain routines that may be requested when it comes to watching other people’s pets!😄 I am available to provide pet care throughout the week (M-F) 10am-7:30pm. If you would like me to provide pet care more than once throughout the day or week I just ask that you provide enough detail and clear communication I want to provide the best care for the pets. I ask the owner(s) about anything I should specifically do or not do, how often should I walk them, when their feeding times are, etc. I just make sure I have all the necessary info so the pet can be taken care of properly and safely and then it’s time for belly rubs!

“Raven is amazing! She took such good care of our pets, showed up exactly when we expected her to, and her communication was above and beyond. I felt so relaxed during our vacation knowing that they were all being taken care of. Highly recommend!”

Christen C.

“Steven did an incredible job taking care of our Siamese cat, Monroe. He was patient with her the first few days as she warmed up to him and then loved on her once she came around. The daily pictures and updates were appreciated and helped ease our mind during our two week trip. We will definitely book with him next time and will include our deaf and blind Great Dane. His love and care for animals is obvious. Thank you Steven!”

Hillary G.

“Caryn was phenomenal. She was so attentive to my fur baby girls and went above and beyond. We appreciate all the care she showed and would be honored to hire her again.”
