House Sitting in Chevy Chase, Washington, D. C.

“Shumarie was such a delight. This was our first experience with Rover and Shumarie went above and beyond. We appreciated the time he took to meet us and the dogs before the weekend stay. He was incredibly communicative and sent beautiful photos of our two pitties. They were both completely relaxed when we came home. It was great knowing they were getting loved and pampered while we were gone. Thank you!!!”

“Timothy was very thoughtful and kind with our boy. He provided frequent check ins and and photos and really spoiled our fur baby! He was even flexible to stay a bit longer since we were getting home late. We would definitely trust him again with our Briscoe? highly recommend!”

“Absolutely wonderful! Cared for our home and dogs like her own. She let our 3 sleep with her each night and was probably woken by their antics — it was so appreciated that she ensured that for us! We would LOVE to have Danielle back again.”

“Gabriela was great!! Very communicative during her stay and left my home exactly how it was before. Very easy to work with! Would definitely book her again.”

“Prabha took great care of our Andy— she was attentive to his needs, played with him, and asked all the right questions to ensure he would be safe while also having fun. Prabha also walked Andy well, and we appreciate her follow ups while away. We with Andy look forward to having her care for him again soon. ?”

“William was genuinely so kind and caring to my baby girl Mika. He is patient with her and makes sure on hot days to bring water and find shade. He also plays her favorite games with her favorite toys. I am so grateful I found William!”

“Great job!! Jennifer was prompt to our meeting, flexible and did a wonderful job getting to know my pups! She’s very caring and I would definitely ask her to watch them.”

“Kelly was awesome! She doggy-sat in our home for almost a week and took great care of our highly energetic Airedale. Kelly left our house spotless and Maggie was well exercised. We have already re-booked Kelly for another gig and we are recommending her to our neighbors and friends.”

“Arepa ? had an amazing time at Luisa’s. Highly recommend. I was at ease leaving him with her and will book again!”

“Sonja was absolutely amazing at caring for our 18-month-old puppy while we were on a 10-day vacation. She was great at communicating with us and sending us updates and pictures of our sweet and energetic girl having a great time! We felt so comfortable with our dog in Sonja’s care that we were really able to enjoy our trip. She even took care of our herb garden! Thank you, Sonja!”

“Tais did so well with my dachshund Goose and maltepoo Tofu! She sent a lot of pictures and updates without me having to ask. She also”

“Abi was incredible during her stay with our two German Shepherd’s. She was able to take them on hikes and spend a lot of time outside getting their energy out. Abi was extremely responsive and sent many pictures throughout her stay. I cannot speak highly enough of how pleased we were with her! 5 Stars!”

“Evelyn did a great job taking care of our pup! She was good about communicating, checked on a minor house issue for us, and updated us about our dog’s day with pictures. We returned home to a happy dog and would definitely hire Evelyn as a sitter again!”

“Kim was absolutely perfect! She communicated very consistently while I was away & made a creative effort to get my anxious dog to eat when he wouldn’t. She also left a really cute card for me when I returned home. I felt like Tino was in very safe & capable hands. We can’t wait to book with Kim again!”

“If there was a sixth star, I'd click it-Emily was amazing with our dog Brownie. She watched her at our home over a holiday weekend, and was great with Brownie. Emily sent us pictures every day and kept us up to date on her well-being. It was a very hot weekend, so Emily took extra care to let us know how Brownie did on her walks, and with eating. By the end of the weekend, Brownie was rolling over for belly rubs! I'd highly recommend Emily to take care of you pet and home!”

“We appreciate Carrie’s clear communication and quick replies. More importantly, we are grateful for the weekly care she provided for our beagle, Odie. Thank you, Carrie”

About: Hello there! Need a dog walker during the day? I am a young professional, and usually WFH during the week. I am very active and have an airedale terrier named Wes who loves hiking and going to the beach. I also have many years of experience with our family pets and pet sitting during college. I've been around many different breeds big or small, and I am comfortable with training as I have worked with Wes since I brought him home. I'm available for drop-in visits/walks during the week and on the weekends. I can pet sit, and board. Cats are also welcome! I can’t wait to take care of your furry friends. :) I work from home and have flexibility during the week/weekends. I am used to my own high energy dog and can provide ample opportunities for sufficient exercise. I have my own dog who is very friendly and loves to play, he is great company. I have a crate as needed, and my home is always secure.

About: I’ve loved dogs, cats, snakes and dragons of my own my entire life through the different stages of their lives. I’ve also cared for the furry family members of friends and neighbors since my teen years. I’ve cared for senior pets that need several medications throughout the day, pets currently taking antibiotics or following GI friendly diets, pets that adore attention and those who prefer their space. I take pet care seriously and would only ever care for a pet as well as I care for my own. I do work full time, so I would be a best fit for pets that are used to having working parents. The longest shift I work during my availability is 8 hours and I make my way directly home after each shift. I have the support of a partner to care for my own pets, which gives me free time to care for yours. I’m used to going for multiple walks with my own boys and lots of time spent playing tog-of-war. If your pet is up to date on vaccines and flea/tick/heart worm preventatives I’d love to take them on a long hike or a casual meander through Rock Creek or for a day at the dog park.

“Victoria was amazing and super communicative! She really cares about your pets and I would absolutely have her come watch my dog again in a heartbeat!”

“Elle was a fabulous house sitter for my dogs. Took them for walks, gave them lots of affection and love. When I came home after 5 days of vacation, they were calm and happy and greeted me like,” Oh you’re home. That’s nice. We had a wonderful time with Elle!” She left the house in perfect order. I’ll definitely be using her many times.”
