“Cera’s taken care of my dog for a while now but this was her first time taking care of my kitty, and my usually skeptical cat warmed right up to Cera 🫶🏻”

About: Hey, use my code for $20 off! https://www.rover.com/sit/mahdoa39338 About me? I'm a WFH freelancer, and can choose my own hours. This leaves me wide open to help you and your pets on a call/text! Why me? I have loved, house-trained, and cared for nearly 25 cats and dogs over 45lbs. Several of my pets in my household needed end of life care or special medical treatment, too, which means I had extra love to give and ease their comfort. I have petsit for friends, family, and my extended network for the past 10yrs, and supported many of them through their special and unique needs and care. So, here I am, making it an official hobby. Because I am a part-time WFH freelancer, I have the flexibility to be more available and attentive for you and your pets! I'm always available, and LOVE giving PAWgress reports - pupdates and daily* mews! Reports are always more than just "daily" - pet content is a vital necessity ❤️ In any care with any pet, I listen to their expressions and behaviors for both their and my security. In your home, I will follow your pet's natural safe spaces to make sure that both of us have time and space to know each other better, which doesn't disrupt their normal routine, and keeps us both comfortable and safe. It is important for me to always listen to your pet's and your needs and concerns, more than just for safety, but also fun! This means I will need information on your pet and your rules, expectations, and specific treatment and care.

“Asia, was absolutely the best. She was so helpful for our family taking care of our puppy while we were away checking on him multiple times a day, always communicating and lots pictures. Thanks Asia for taking care of our baby boy!”

“Sam is one for the best pet sitters you’ll ever find! She is responsible, reliable, incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and truly a cat whisperer. Even my shy cat took a liking to her right away! Excellent communication and her beautiful spontaneous pet photos are a big bonus! She also watered my plants and they thrived. I came home after nearly three weeks away to two healthy and happy cats. I commend her to you 100%!”

About: As a teen, I pet sat for oodles of neighborhood dogs, rescue doggie mamas with pups, neighbors' cats, horses, burros, and chickens. Now, as a petless family, we'd love to bring a little dog love into our life without the longterm commitment. We are an introverted family (Emily, Patrick and 10-year-old Gideon). We love quietly cuddling pups and taking family walks. We prefer to provide boarding to hypoallergenic dogs, but can love walks and in-home care for any type of pup. We can provide weekend care, either boarding or petsitting for local dog families. We are a full-time working/school family. On available weekends, we like to take walks, play board games, throw a ball or frisbee in the yard, and read. We've got lots of grass and can walk to Lake Accotink Park from our house. We've got lots of grass and can walk to Lake Accotink Park from our house. When we petsit, we are careful to use a leash every time we go outside. We are very mindful of the pet's house rules and try to be as consistent with the owner's wishes as possible. There will be lots of snuggles and a love from the 10 year old (Gideon), with plenty of oversight and care from the adults in the house.

“My cat is typically skittish around new people, but she immediately took to Lynda. Lynda went above and beyond to make my kitty feel safe and comfortable while we were away.”

“Anita took great care of our two big dogs, and accepted the booking at the last minute which we really appreciated! Would absolutely book her again!”

About: My family and I are huge animal lovers! We’ve been seeing so many adorable dogs and cats lately and are seriously considering adopting one ourselves. Before making that big commitment, I'd love to help care for other people’s pets to better understand the day-to-day responsibilities and see if we’re truly ready. I’d love to help out with short-term stays, day care, walks, or feeding. I know how important it is to keep them comfy and stick to their usual routine, so I’ll make sure to follow any instructions you share. Having a pet around really brightens up the home, and I’ll do my best to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and totally at ease. Can’t wait to meet them! Since I work from home, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I’m able to provide frequent attention, playtime, feeding, and monitoring throughout the day. This flexible schedule allows me to be fully present for your pet’s needs, ensuring they feel loved and cared for while you’re away. I‘ll make sure there’s always time for outdoor breaks, and keeping your pet comfortable and happy. When caring for pets at your home, I treat your space and routines with respect, keeping everything clean and following your instructions closely. I’ll keep you updated regularly so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for. At my home, I'll create a safe and cozy environment where your pet can feel relaxed and loved. I carefully handle feeding, playtime, and any special needs to ensure their safety and comfort. Whether your pet is at your home or mine, they’ll receive plenty of love, attention, and care from me and my family!

About: My husband and I have taken care of our friend’s teddy, Pomeranian, Rottweiler and Labrador retriever, Friends have relied on us to walk, feed, and board their pets when they are at school, at work, on vacation or when they had to deal with emergency situations. I’m currently working on a hybrid schedule where I work from home on Mondays and also I have Fridays off as well meaning I am able to pet sit from Friday to Monday night! We have a fenced back yard, and a very large grassed park area behind our townhome. My husband and I loveeee going for walks, would be thrilled to take your furry out to explore some new smells near our home. Happy to provide updates with photos through out the day.

About: I’ve been a proud cat mom for 4 years and recently welcomed a second cat into my home, so I understand the unique needs and personalities of felines. I’ve grown up in a family that has loves for pets and have always had one in our homes. Since 2023, I’ve also help care for two dogs, a Rottweiler and a Doberman, assisting with walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I treat every pet as if they were my own.. with love, patience, and attention to detail. 🥰 I’m available on Mondays, Tuesdays, and weekends. I’m happy to help if you need someone to check in on your pet while you run errands, go out, or take a weekend trip. I enjoy spending time with animals and love working pet care into my weekly routine! I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved, whether it’s in my home or yours. I’m gentle, patient, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine, give them playtime, walks, cuddles, or quiet time if they prefer. I’m also careful with feeding schedules, medications if needed, and keeping their space clean and cozy.

About: I have over 20 years of experience watching both my family pets and dog sitting. This includes feeding, medication dispersal, play time, and bathroom time. I am a full time remote worker with a flexible schedule that allows me to drop in on pets as needed for feedings, medication dispersal, play time, and bathroom time. I believe that the key to taking care of pets is moving at a speed that is comfortable to them. I will make sure all of their basic needs (feeding, medication, bathroom time) is met while also taking into account how comfortable your pet is with me.
