About: Hi!! My name is Kate and I love all types of pets. I’ve had pets all throughout my life. I have been pet sitting for over 5 years and I can’t wait to meet new furry friends! I have experience dog walking, pet sitting while owners are away, giving medication, and more! I am available anytime for pet care, whether that be dog walking to pet sitting while you are gone! I make sure the pups get lots of activity outside and more attention when we get back in! I always make sure that the pet is safe in their environment. I check to make sure they have enough food/water and look around for any accidents.
“We are reoccurring clients of Maddy’s, and are very pleased with her services. She is reliable, responsive, responsible, caring, compassionate, and respectful. We highly recommend her to other pet parents out there that are looking for someone that they can feel good about entrusting the care of their fur-baby(babies) with.”

“Samantha did an amazing job walking our pup Prince. She was very professional and her communication was top tier. She treated him like her own and you can tell she loves what she does. I look forward to having her walk him again. I highly recommend Samantha!”

“Ciara did a great job walking and feeding our dog Skippy. He is finicky eater and she got him to eat all his chow. She definitely has a way with animals. I highly recommend her services.”

About: I grew up around dogs most of my life, big and small, and treat my own dog like he’s my son. My husband Alex also grew up around dogs and is an experienced dog sitter. He grew up watching his mom care for dogs, who not only was a sitter but also trained dogs for leading the blind. Together we own a young Samoyed that we spoil to pieces and loves to play with other dogs. To our friends and family we are very reliable when they are in need of a sitter, and we understand the importance of needing to leave your loved ones with someone you can trust. We never leave the dogs outside by themselves, we take them on walks whenever we can, and we don’t let them sleep alone. We will let your dogs be part of the family and be their home away from away from home. I work part time and don’t have to commute very far for work, so I’m home more than half the time to care for your pet! My husband is in the military and has most nights and weekends off. We have a fenced backyard with plenty of grass. There is also plenty of space inside the house for your dog’s crate/bed and other belongings. Our dog loves to play and keep other dogs company.

“Alexandra is friendly and knowledgeable about dog walking/care and was flexible in taking care of Winston on short notice. Alexandra was timely in her visits, provided full details on her visit including photos. We would recommend Alexandra to others and will use Alexandra in the future. Thanks Alexandra.”

“Caila is amazing! She having me a report on echo everyday and sent me pictures of my baby echo having a blast in her care. I’m so happy I gave rover another chance because Caila is the best!”

“Really nice and professional and he was available even though I booked him at the very last minute. He treated both of my pups so well and I would definitely book Jim again!”


“William was great! He was reliable, flexible, understanding, patient and very nice. He did great with my two dogs. One of them requires special attention during walks. Will did exceptional. Definitely will be telling my family and friends about him so they can use him too, I know I will be! Thanks again William!”

“Lola is great! She is very trustworthy & reliable, and took great care of my best buddy while I was going into the office for work! We greatly appreciated the help and will certainly reach back out in the future.”

“Ms Brianna has helped me since day one! I was worried about moving and finding someone to take care of my puppers but she came through and started communicating with me before my move to reassure me he would be taken care of. I’m so thankful for her and so is Mr. Puppers.”

“Jay displayed professionalism and patience when my dogs were being difficult. She had great communication and made us feel comfortable leaving them in her care. Would 100% recommend!”

Alyssa was a total lifesaver! We wound up needing to bring our dog on a trip to Northern VA at the last minute and needed someone to walk her. Alyssa was prompt in her communication and asked great questions to make sure our dog was comfortable. She kept us posted on her arrival, let us know how the walk went, and sent photos. We will definitely contact her again when we are in town visiting. Thanks, Alyssa!
Stephen H did an exceptional job walking our 2 dogs. He came on shorter notice than I would normally provide due to a family emergency. He was always punctual and brought sunshine to the dogs and their owners. He trained our 3 y/o greyhound mix to walk on a leash in 3 days. He took care of the dogs so well that I will always go to him first for future dog walking jobs. Thank you, Stephen H.
Elizabeth has such a calm and reassuring demeanor, and my dog absolutely lights up when she comes over for a walk. She communicates quickly and clearly, which makes scheduling around my work week incredibly easy. I always know my dog is in good hands with her. Highly recommend!
