About: I'm the proud owner of a chocolate lab and go-to sitter of three precious cats! I'm very active and able to take your pets on long walks. I'm currently a college student on summer break, so I am free to watch, play with, and walk your pets every day of the week! Your pets will be my #1 priority! I have a well loved chocolate lab at home, so I know how to take care of dogs! For my clients, I value communication. You will know all about how your pet is doing, and I will follow their pre-existing routine as closely as possible! Let me know any rules, diet restrictions, and preferences so I can do my best. I prefer to dogsit in your home to reduce the amount of stress your pet feels while you're away!
About: I have grown up around animals and have extensive experience with pet care and the adoption process, which has strengthened my passion for providing loving, attentive care. Over the years, I have become a trusted choice for many families because of my dedication, reliability, and commitment to treating every pet as if they were my own. I take pride in ensuring that animals feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am a college student working part-time mostly at night allowing me lots of time during the day to walk and play your pups! I am able to travel to your house and am able to take the pup on a walk or just stay and play for a bit!
“Mya was amazing! She took wonderful care of my cat, and she sent detailed updates with plenty of pictures :) Would recommend her to anyone and will definitely book her again!”
About: Hi there! I grew up loving dogs, in fact, my older sibling was our family German Shepard! She made sure I was safe, and I made sure she was well loved! I understand how important four-legged family members are. I will provide your fur baby with the same level of care I would want for my own. I LOVE dogs and they love me! I have owned and cared for a full range of dogs. You can feel relaxed with your pet in my care, whether a baby or mature pet, I’ve handled them all! Also, as an experienced foster mom, I am fully comfortable and capable of handling newly adopted or foster dogs, and shy/timid dogs. I have no breed or size restrictions. All furry friends are welcome! Whatever you and your pet need, I am here to help. Currently, I am focused only on dog sitting. Although I tend to schedule tasks when I am not caring for a dog, if I need to run an errand, pups are never left alone for more than one to two hours. My home is very pet friendly and safe. Your fur baby is more than welcome to hang out with me on the couch or on the bed! Let my love of pets help you feel secure in your fur baby's safety and well-being.
“This is the third time we have booked Amber for drop-in visits. She is an excellent pet sitter. Our dog is nervous around strangers. Amber has made him feel at ease and he looks forward to seeing her. She communicates frequently and always sends photos. We very much appreciate Amber and will definitely book her again.”
About: Hey friends! :) I’m super excited you (and your dog) are reading this! I’ve had experience living with and taking care of all types of dogs. Big, small, young, old, calm and crazy. Just take a look at my photos to see how many sweet fur babies I’ve been blessed enough to love on! I’m currently a work from home employee and have several opportunities a day to get out and walk pups, or just drop in, let them potty, and give them some love 🥰 I am currently only offering drop-in and walking services. When picking up or checking on your pup, I will be courteous, mindful and respectful of the home they’re in.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life and have experience caring for everything from small dogs to large dogs, including a couple of Belgian Malinois. I frequently take care of friends’ dogs when they are out of town, providing walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of attention to help them stay comfortable and maintain their normal routine while their owners are away. Caring for pets is already a regular part of my week. I have a pretty flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to fit in walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I’m very clean and organized, - I can clean up after pets including messes or accidents to ensure home is tidy. - - - -
“Aimee - was very easy to communicate with, responsive and professional. I felt my kitties were well taken care of while I was gone. Really appreciated Aimee’s flexibility on when to come over. All in all great experience!”
About: I have fifteen years of pet sitting and care experience, to include drop-ins, walks, feedings, litter box cleaning and overnight stays. When I was little, I wanted to be a veterinarian, and then a zoologist. Neither career panned out, but my love for animals remained. Now I get my fill of furry friends by providing excellent, worry-free care for your pets! As a proud mom of three urban hens, I know how nerve-wracking it is to be away from a beloved pet. That’s why I provide frequent updates and pictures to my clients so that they can go about their workdays or trips without anxiety. I specialize in cats, dogs and birds. I can’t wait to meet your pet! I am currently freelancing part-time, which provides me with an extremely flexible schedule to care for your pets! From walks to drop-ins to overnight stays, I can provide a variety of services to DMV pet owners When in your home whether for a drop-by or overnight stay, I am committed to making your pet feel as comfortable and happy as possible in the absence of their person/people. I follow my clients’ instructions and specifics of their pets’ routines, and follow them closely. I also provide lots of love and cuddles (or love from afar for pets that don’t like to be touched!)
“Jessica did a wonderful job with my very shy cat. She was patient and persistent until my cat gradually opened up to her. Jessica was very reliable in feeding my cat on schedule and sending me pictures on a daily basis, even if the pic was only one of my cat hiding under the bed!”
About: I grew up in a home that was constantly fostering dogs, puppies, senior dogs, kittens, and everything in between. Over the years, I’ve helped care for shy rescues, energetic puppies, senior hospice dogs, big breeds, little breeds, and pets needing extra patience and structure. Through fostering and daily care, I gained experience reinforcing training routines, reading canine body language, and handling dogs respectfully based on their individual needs and comfort levels. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I’m experienced with: • Dog walking • Cat sitting • Overnight pet care • High energy dogs • Senior pets • Rescue animals & anxious pets • Reinforcing basic training routines • Reactive or dog selective dogs • Multi pet households I’m active, reliable, calm under pressure, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I understand that not every dog wants to greet people or other dogs on walks, and I’m always mindful of giving pets the space, structure, and calm environment they need to feel comfortable and safe. Whether your dog needs a long walk, playtime, cuddles, consistency, or just someone dependable while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’ll be available in Arlington, VA, this summer and in San Diego this fall, and I have reliable transportation. My goal is simple: make your pets feel safe, loved, exercised, and happy, and make you feel completely comfortable while you’re away. Can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I am in Arlington, VA, for the summer and in San Diego for college during the fall! I work part-time over the summer for the St.James ice hockey program. Starting June 15th, I will only be free after 4 pm on weekdays and at any time on weekends. I will be available to stay overnight on weekends. I have experience in caring for animals with a variety of personalities. I have adopted many animals over the years, and my most recent dog is a Belgian Malinois! He is full of energy and likes going on runs, walks, playing fetch, and anything that involves hours of constant activity. I have had dogs ranging from 3-week-old puppies to a 160-pound mastiff. I have had cats all my life and have bottle-fed multiple litters. I enjoy working with local animal shelters and would love to let your animal steal my heart 😊
“Lily took excellent care of my 14 year old cat recently during my overnight trip, providing dinner then breakfast/play-time and litter box patrol. She sent updates and photos via email and text and I could see my fur-baby was comfortable and engaged. When I arrived home, she was relaxed and her friendly, affectionate self. I'll absolutely work with Lily in the future for kit care while I am traveling! I had a wonderful time on my trip and was completely relaxed knowing my fur-baby was in such good hands!”
“Maria was wonderful to work with! Super communicative and had no problem with administering pills for our Junie. It’s so nice to feel 100% confident that your cat will be well cared for while you’re away. Hire Maria!”
About: I have taken classes in dog behaviors and how they act when they might need a particular action done. I have a NAPPS certification, which is National Association of Professional Pet Sitters that is earned for all small animals, both including dogs and cats. I have had my own very young puppy, so I know how to handle and train them in a gentle manner that they will respond to. I have tons of experience in senior dogs and cats, so I am patient to more slow animals or paying attention to them more and making sure they have what they need. I have an extremely open schedule and can stay over for longer periods of time than most people. I am free almost every single day for hours on end, so finding when I can come over is no trouble. I’m easy to schedule if I need to house sit, and am extremely responsible and willing to stay overnight when needed. I love taking care of animals in their own homes, knowing they’ll feel the most comfortable surrounded by their familiar surroundings. The only thing I care about is that your furry companions are safe and cared for in a way that they don’t feel out of place or missing the love they got before you left them in my care.
“Becca was fantastic! Super communicative, and always sent great photos and notes about her check-ins with my cats. They loved her! Couldn’t recommend her more.”
“Michael is a star sitter. Amazing communication, attention to detail, and always great at sending pictures. I always know I’m leaving my pets in great hands”
“I contacted Ella at the last moment last week and although we did not have the chance to meet, Ella came through 5 stars in helping out with our demanding hounds. I left several texts and Ella took that input and made a good experience for the girls. So we repeated the exercise a week later, and again Ella helped us out with minimal input. Ella is thoughtful and mature, and apparently is VERY comfortable around dogs, and I'll certainly ask her for help in the future.”
“Andre takes great care of my cat and goes above and beyond every visit. He’s communicative and even helped me handle an emergency home issue that came up while I was out of town. Highly recommend him (and so does my cat!)”

Tasneem was the perfect sitter! Since we hadn’t met before, we did a meet and greet before the stay, which was an extra step I really appreciated. She was very communicative setting up the meeting, and when I sent care instructions shortly before my stay. Each time she checked on my cat Klaus, Tasneem wrote a nice report and took tons of pictures. I could tell from all the updates that Klaus warmed up to her quickly, and that she was taking great care of him. I was able to relax on my week-long trip knowing she’d be there consistently! I would absolutely book with Tasneem again, and I’d strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, dependable sitter!
Justin stayed in our home for five days and cared for our two dogs and two cats while we were away. We have a fairly complicated pet situation, including an older dog who can be wary of strangers and requires medication, as well as two cats living on different levels of the house, one of whom also needs medication. We had never left all of our pets for this length of time before, so it was important to find someone we could trust. Justin communicated well throughout our trip, kept us updated, and handled our pets’ routines and medication schedules responsibly. He managed a lot of moving parts and took good care of the animals and our home while we were away. We appreciated his reliability and the peace of mind he provided during our first extended time away from our pets.
Sunny had another wonderful week with Evan. Her energy level can swing from energetic to lazy within a few seconds and Evan can quickly tailor the afternoon walk depending on her mood. And he always makes sure that Sunny feels well rested and cared before finishing his check-in. I can see it so well from the pictures he takes of her 😂
We’ve been having Mya help us with our cats for a couple of years now and she’s hands down the best pet sitter! She goes above and beyond, giving them so much attention while we are gone. We love her reports…they are full of information and photos. It’s the next best thing to being home with our kitties!
I had a great experience meeting with Fernanda during our meet and greet. She's friendly, professional, and took the time to get to know both me and my cat (even though she was hiding!). I appreciated how thoughtful she was in asking questions about my cat's routine, preferences, and care needs. It was clear she genuinely cares about animals and wants to provide the best possible care. The meet and greet left me feeling confident and comfortable about leaving my cat in her care. I would absolutely recommend Fernanda to other pet parents looking for a reliable and attentive sitter!
