“Solid 5 stars for Ms. Rita and her care for Calie and Bow! Her visits were timely. We know that she was exceptional because they almost seemed disappointed when they realized it was is coming through the door and not Ms. Rita! Will definitely book again when the need arises.”
“Ashley was a wonderful sitter for our 3 cats. She quickly learned what each one liked and appealed to each one's sensibilities. Ashley also shared many great photos, and generally went an extra step in every regard to make sure our pets were taking care of and our home remained tidy. Highly recommend!”
About: Since childhood, I've been trusted to look after other people's pets. I grew up with dogs of my own, as well as animals of all kinds, so I have a lot of experience with pets of all personalities and temperaments. I also worked with a vet for three years, have a biology degree with an emphasis on animal science, and have a special needs pet myself, so I'm confident giving medications, maintaining any recovery care, or whatever else your dog may need. I'd love to be friends with your pup! I am self-employed and currently work from home most of the week, so I have some flexibility when it comes to scheduling! I am available for drop-in visits or walks Monday-Friday. As all of my services will take place in the client's home, I will follow any instructions that the client gives me in regards to pet care. It is my goal that your pet's routine is as uninterrupted as possible.
About: Since I was young, I've been very drawn to caring for pets of all nature and have a very deep connection with dogs. From my experiences with having 2 dogs of my own to being the best aunt to my sisters’ poodles, I know that a dog really is a human's best friend. I'd love the opportunity to help others care for their best friends too! Currently, I have reduced my hours at my hospital job to an average of around 20 hours a week, thus have a lot more flexibility in my schedule and can change my work availability as needed. For the remainder of the summer, I am preparing myself to start graduate school in the fall, when I will be enrolled at GWU and living in Alexandria. As such, I am available to take on any and all services necessary to offer help in any way that I can! Though I would not be looking to house any pets in my home, I do prefer fenced yards for client's homes so that outside play can ensure safety for the pet as while as myself. If this is not feasible, I will gladly resort to playing inside (with permission from the owners), as well as traditional dog sitting indoors and frequent neighborhood walks.
“Wenda is the best sitter we’ve used with Rover. She is my go-to for checking in on my cat when we’re out of town, and for walking our German Shepherd when we’re working late. She sends photos and detailed updates and goes above and beyond with taking care of our pets. 10/10 recommend!”
“Thanks Phoenix. Reliable, got the job done well and a caring person to trust with my cat visits. I appreciate you watching my kitty kid and will be in contact again for your great services ASAP.”

Your pet will have 2 friends to get along with while they are in my care dog park walks and adventures await!!

About: I've taken care of pets my entire life, I currently have 4 cats and I also work at a daycare and boarding facility so I'm more than capable of handling all types of dogs and cats. My responsibilities at work include cleaning, playing, monitoring play groups, feeding, and giving medication to all different sizes and breeds of dogs as well as caring for cats in my own home. I believe every pet deserve love and patience and I enjoy providing them with that. I currently work full-time at a daycare and boarding facility, I'm available after 7pm and before 6am every day to care for your pets. :) I can walk, play with, feed, let out to potty, clean up after, and give meds to your wonderful pets depending on your needs. :)
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my energy as a young college student who truly enjoys spending time with them. I have a soft spot for both playful puppies and sweet senior pets, and I’m patient, attentive, and gentle with every animal I care for. Whether it’s helping a puppy learn good habits or making sure an older dog is comfortable on slow walks, I treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet care fits easily into my routine! I work in the evenings from 4–7 PM, so I have plenty of free time during the mornings and early afternoons to give pets the attention, exercise, and playtime they need. Whether it’s a walk, cuddle session, or feeding time, I’m flexible and happy to adjust to your pet’s schedule. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routines as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walk times, play, and any special instructions. I keep the environment clean, safe, and calm, and I always give pets plenty of love and attention so they feel comfortable while their owners are away. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a cozy, pet-friendly space with room to play, rest, and feel at ease. I treat every pet like family and make sure their physical and emotional needs are met every day.
“Jessica was very responsible and extremely caring and hands-on with our senior cat (and hamster too). She did several check-ins a day and spent many overnights which requires a high level of trust and Jessica went above and beyond. She communicated constantly with updates, pictures and videos (seriously, top-notch communication) and she left our home in perfect condition. Our animals took right to her and I am grateful to have found someone so kind and committed.”
About: I have grown up caring for pets my whole life. I had several cats as well as dogs as a child and I learned from a young age to both respect and engage these animals as part of our family in a gentle and loving manner. I believe that taking the time to allow an animal get to know you and accept your energy and presence is most important for quality care. Taking the time to do this allows me to get to know each animal and get a sense of their personality and needs. I have quick reflexes and I am a very active person, so not only will I keep your pet safe, but I will also ensure that they are well-exercised and happy during their outing.
About: As a passionate pet owner, I understand the joy and responsibility of keeping your dog happy, healthy, and active. With a love for all breeds and a commitment to personalized care, I offer dog walking services that go beyond just a quick stroll. Whether it’s a lively adventure or a calm, scenic walk, I treat your furry friend like my own—ensuring they get the exercise, attention, and affection they deserve. Let me help give your dog the best walk of their day! I work from home and have a car. I’m open to early morning walks and evenings. I can also provide support during most weekends and holidays. One pet has a special diet and since I have 3 in total, they all eat the same. That way I know whether any issues are truly with one pet or there is another issue with the environment or food.
About: Here’s a little background of my experience! : So this is the time around where i’m almost done with school and getting ready for college. So my parents bought a dog with no experience. They know I’ve always loved animals or any kind of pet so they offered to pay me if I trained him over the summer while they work/travel. I didn’t need the money because I knew I would do anything for Luca (the dog). So that whole summer I stayed home studying what he likes or doesn’t like, I did research and taught him basic training, and I loved and cared for Luca with all my heart! I would love the opportunity to love and take care of your dog the same way anytime !! I can do mornings (9am if earlier lmk) on Monday, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. Then anytime 12-7 on Wednesdays and Fridays. For weekends text for availability! I can also do last minute request just communicate! I wake up every morning at 9am because that’s when my dog Luca starts to wake up. Then i immediately go outside with him to let him do his business and while he’s outside i’ll prepare his food (I can watch him playing in front out the window). Every times he come back from outside he likes to eat a piece of ice lol. after he eats i let him rest before we go play. The rest of the day is cuddles, naps together, playing outside, and 10 mins of training everyday. I would do this every for the whole summer and have had the greatest opportunity to watch Luca grow up.
About: I’ve watched almost all of my family members pets growing up and they relied on me to take care of their pets while they weren’t present. I will care for the animals and treat them as my own. I’m free whenever work is needed, I will adjust what i do for the animal as i do not have much on my plate these days. In my own home we have 2 dogs and one of them is mine that i take very good care of and i will treat clients pet as if they are my own.
About: I’ve cared for dogs (all sizes and breeds), cats and hamsters of all ages. I show patience to puppies and seniors while engaging in activity for all ages levels. I’ve recently retired from the federal govt. Looking to fill my day with 4 legged animals who need care while their family is away at work or vacation. I care for animals like family. Walk on leash, play and pet with the utmost care. I will provide companionship while you are away or at work to help lessen their loneliness and keep them occupied.
