“Lilla was fantastic!! Often going above and beyond to make sure our puppy had an amazing experience with her. She was very communicative and took plenty of pictures and/or video to let us know our puppy was doing well. Highly recommend and will definitely book her again whenever we need someone to walk Molly!”

Im currently working from home and never travel because I have a toddler son and 2 dogs, so im often available on weekends for pet care and during the week for walks I have two friendly dogs to keep your dog company and a large house for plenty of play space. I’m also experienced with picky eating dogs.

About: My experience comes from caring for my own pets and giving them consistent, loving care. I’ve had a cat since I was around 12–13 and have been responsible for feeding, cleaning, playing with, and making sure they are safe and comfortable. I’ve also had a dog and have lived in homes with dogs, so I’m comfortable around both cats and dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I have pets of my own as of now, but I am always free to show animals the love and care needed. I'm available for pet care and happy to help!! I provide a safe, calm, and clean environment for pets. I follow each pet's routine , keep them supervised, and make sure they have food, water, attention, and a comfortable space.
About: Animals have a way of knowing right away if someone is truly present with them. I believe in developing that trust and making a new furry friend. Whether it’s an energetic dog ready to explore or a cautious, reserved cat who needs space before asking for chin scratches, I have an affinity for connecting with pets and treating them with respect. I have experience managing schedules for both dogs and cats keeping feed times, maintaining routines, and making sure your home stays clean and secure while you’re away. I currently work part-time, but I can adapt to your needs at a moments notice. I’m available for boarding on weekends and even weekdays if needed. My approach is based on consistent, clear communication and keeping your pet feeling completely secure, regardless of the environment. I honor your established routines, from feeding schedules and medication timing to timed habits and walk routes, predictably is key. If an unexpected situation or question ever arises, I will contact you immediately rather than guessing. Above all, I treat your home with total respect and care for your pet with the same attentiveness, patience, and safety standards I would expect for my own

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for more than 20 years and have hands-on experience with both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and following detailed care instructions. I also have house-sitting experience caring for pets in their own homes, which has taught me how important it is to keep their normal routine consistent while their family is away. I’m dependable, attentive, and I love keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can feel comfortable knowing their pets are being well cared for. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make pet care a priority throughout the week. I’m available for house sitting, walks, drop-in visits, and weekend care.

About: Hi! I'm Coralie, you can call me Coral! I'm a high-energy, fun-loving women's health advocate, yoga teacher, and most importantly, a pet sitter to furry friends across the DC metro area and beyond. As a cat mom of two purrfect girls, lifelong cat owner and rover pet sitter for 3+ years - I understand pets are our family, which is why I love to connect with pet parents prior to offering support to learn more about your pet's needs. When booking with me I can guarantee lots of photos, updates and personalized attention to your pets as desired, whether cuddles, play, or both! ** Additional notes: I am experienced with dogs and cats of all temperaments, breeds, ages, and medical conditions. I can administer oral medication. I particularly enjoy working with households that have multiple cats. For dogs, I am happy to care for small to large sizes. I am not able to accept giant breeds at this time. At this time, I am happy to offer flexible scheduling options for new and returning pet parents for all of my services: house sitting, dog walks, and drop-in visits. I have availability 6–7 days a week, from early morning to late evening! **Meet and Greets: For safety, security, and your pet's comfort, a meet and greet is required for all bookings.

For dog walking and house sitting, I strongly encourage an in-person meet and greet to ensure I am the best support option for your pet! **Cancellations and Modifications: If a service has already been confirmed and is 3 days or less away, I do not accept cancellations or modifications outside of emergencies. This means you will be charged for the full service you initially booked, regardless of changing circumstances. Delight is in the details! As your pet/house sitter, I chat with every pet parent to get the scoop on what's needed from me. While I am self-sufficient and can work with minimal details, I encourage families to share as much as they can about the intricacies of their pets' behaviors, personalities, and even house rules or quirks to be aware of. This way, everyone's comfortable and satisfied, and all responsibilities get done so we can all have a delightful time. **Additional notes: I do have a personal vehicle to transport pets in the case of any emergency.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Chanelle is fantastic! She’s incredibly friendly, prompt, and professional, with the added patience to handle our rather barky chihuahua-pug mix. Our dog doesn’t usually warm up to people quickly, but she immediately took to Chanelle, which says a lot. Her calm, reassuring approach made her feel comfortable, and it’s clear she genuinely loves working with animals. Chanelle is reliable and trustworthy, and we feel so lucky to have her as our dog walker. Highly recommend!”

Micaela was amazing and she is the sweetest! I messaged her very early in the morning to walk my dog Kato and she was at my apartment within 2 hours! Her responsiveness and communication throughout the entire booking was exceptional! My baby absolutely loved her, not to mention he was exhausted after their walks! Thank you Micaela, I will be booking again!
Very conscientious, polite, punctual and persevering with our frisky 100# black Briard who is very strongly bonded to us. Collaborates well with us amidst pickup/return antics of our other 100# tawny Briard. Good feedback, map of walk & pix show brisk pace and variety over good distance. Intend to continue for weeks while my broken ankle heals.
