We will definitely book again with Lisa in the future - and highly recommend others to do so! Thank you, Lisa”

About: I love dogs and my girl Stella loves to make friends. Due to her play style Stella does best with small to medium dogs who also like to play. If your pup isn't into playing, we can always crate and rotate so everyone has a good experience. In addition to Stella, I have fostered more than 30 dogs over the past 8 years. I am extremely responsible and understand that our pets are family and I would treat them as such. I work from home full time so I'll be able to spend a lot of time with you pet and make sure they get plenty of exercise. I live near several walking paths so despite living in an apartment you pet will be able to get out for lots of enrichment walks. I have a private patio where they will be able sun bathe if they like that too!
“Ira did a great job communicating with me and checking in on my kitties! She even went and checked in on the cat that likes to hide by bringing the treats to her. I highly recommend Ira for cat sitting!!!”
About: I'm just like everyone else, but I have a unique love for animals. I’m Deaf and communicate with my dog using sign language—I can teach your dog some signs too if you'd like! I share my life with one dog and several stray cats. I enjoy caring for dogs on weekends through Rover, and I can also watch your dogs during the week. Please note that I stay at work all day, but I’ll make sure they’re well cared for. My home is peaceful and quiet, with comfy dog beds for your pup. I keep dogs off the bed since I'm a sensitive sleeper, but they’ll have plenty of space to relax. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! I’m more available on Fri/Sat/Sun as I stay home those days. During the week, I work in person, so I’m less available if your fur kid needs constant attention. I have an old, dog-friendly car that doesn’t mind mess from the dogs—mud and water are no problem! I love taking dogs for walks through the woods at places like Colmar Manor Recreation Center, U.S. National Arboretum, Kenilworth Aquatic Park, Anacostia Park, and around the U.S. National Mall. If we stay home, I have a fenced yard and plenty of furniture for dogs to jump on. If you'd prefer your dogs not to get on the furniture, that’s easily arranged! My dog prefers sleeping under the table. There are several dog neighbors and stray cats, but they quickly flee when dogs are around, so it should be fine! I always communicate via text and take pictures of your fur kids so you can see they’re having fun with me and my pup. I like to ask questions to make sure I get everything right for your fur kids
“I’m a return client and thankful every time Megan is available. I have no complaints. She’s consistent, provides great notes and photos and my cats are always fine when we get home.”
“Catherine was once again the absolute best with my little monster of a cat! I feel so lucky to have found her, and I will absolutely use her again!! On top of that, she sends the best photos!”

Jennifer F.
“J.J. F. is simply the best when it comes to caring for dogs, and my pup, Mela, absolutely adores her! From the moment they met, it was clear that J.J. has a natural gift for connecting with animals. Mela lights up whenever she sees J.J., and it’s not uncommon for her to cry when it’s time to come home—she loves her that much! J.J. goes above and beyond as a pet sitter and dog walker. She’s incredibly attentive and has even offered me thoughtful advice about Mela’s care, like suggesting a better leash style and noticing when Mela seemed thirstier than usual, which helped me stay on top of her health. J.J. always ensures Mela gets plenty of exercise, whether it's a long walk or a fun trip to the park. Not only does J.J. take amazing care of Mela when I need a sitter, but sometimes she takes her out just to hang out and give her extra love. Knowing J.J. cares for Mela gives me peace of mind because I know she’s safe, happy, and loved. I couldn’t recommend J.J. more highly to anyone looking for a kind, caring, and reliable pet sitter or dog walker. She truly treats every dog like her own!”
