“Elissa was wonderful with my dogs. She was accommodating, asked great questions, and followed my instructions for feeding and walking perfectly. I got pictures and video of my dogs every day, which made me feel like they were in great hands while I was away. Elissa is very caring and truly likes and enjoys dogs. I highly recommend Elissa to care for your dogs when you are away. Thank you Elissa!”
“Corey is amazing. We used him for boarding services. He took very great care of Duchess and treated her has his own. He provided a status and pictures of her multiple times per day. I will definitely use his services again! Thank you so much Corey!”

“Matthew treated our pups like they were his own. They were super happy and very well taken care of. Fantastic communication. Easy going and easy to work with. My pups already want to go back. Thanks for the fantastic experience!”
“Carlton took great care of Zelda! I’d recommend his services to anyone with a dog. Zelda didn’t have many special requests, but the few she did have, he met them with no issue and went out his way to purchase treats for her!”

“This is my 4th booking with Alder and Kathy and unless they are unavailable, I will continue to book with them. They are incredibly kind and soooo good with my little guy who can be shy. They send updates and I literally NEVER worry when he’s staying with them.”

“Briana was amazing! Daily pictures and updates let us know how well Bentley was being loved and taken care of!! Definitely felt at peace leaving our fur baby with Briana!”

“Lia’s communication is always on point! Charlie and I recently moved to DC and looking for a new sitter. Lia was honestly the best sitter for Charlie! She went above and beyond for Charlie even accommodated to his spoiled picky eating behavior 😂. Honestly I want to gate keep Lia but I think everyone deserves to have a sitter like her.”

“April is a great dog sitter! This was a mutual first experience for both of us and she made my dog feel more than comfortable in her home! April spends a lot of time with the dog and made sure that she got multiple walks a day. She also kept me updated with how things were going and sent multiple pics throughout the day so I could see how my baby was doing. Every single picture my dog had her mouth wide open with a big smile! She eased all of my anxiety about leaving my dog with a stranger and I caught myself not worrying about my pup for the couple days I was out of town. This was a great relief and I’m thankful April was able to do a great job with her! My dog is very particular when it comes to trusting people but it looks like my baby has made a new friend and I can’t wait to book with April again!!”

“Abigail did a great job caring for my dog over the 4th of July weekend. I was able to relax knowing my dog was in good hands. As a bonus my pup had a great time playing with sweet Stella. Abigail was easy to coordinate with, gave regular updates and also was very knowledgeable about dog play styles/dog behavior. Highly recommend!”

About: My love of dogs began when my mom got a puppy when I was in sixth grade. Now I am a dog mom. I've been the proud mom of a Boston Terrier/Frenchie mix for the past 4 years. I've raised her since she was 3 months old, through potty training, puppy training and intermediate training. I'd love to care for your fur baby too. I'm at home during the day and available to drop in/ walk your fur baby. I am available in the mornings and in the afternoon. I have an unfenced end unit townhouse. There is grass on the side of my house and plenty of unfenced grass in my townhome community. I work from home almost every day of the week so I will have time to take care of your baby during the weekday. I'm able to get out and walk dogs on the weekends. I have an unfenced yard and a fenced play area in front of my house. I have a friendly fur baby who likes to play and thinks she's the leader of the pack.
“Valeria is a wonderful sitter. She took good care of Zara and made her felt at home in her place. She is reliable and very kind. I was going for a long trip and was rushing so I forgot Zara’s food. She offered to buy it so I will not drive back. I just reimbursed her. I appreciate her maturity and sense of responsibility. Zara had enjoyed her stay with Valeria. We will avail of her pet sitting service next time.”

“Donald and Jeffrey were great. They kept me updated with how Jack was doing and were flexible with a schedule change due to possible bad weather. Thanks for taking good care of Jack!”

“Estela did a great job looking after Jack while I was away. She frequently sent pics and closely watched and attended to him that enabled his small tail wound to heal without wearing a cone all day. She treated Jack as one of her own.”

“Vania was a great cat sitter. She was very flexile and made sure I was comfortable with everything. As a result, I felt very comfortable leaving my cat with her and I had peace of mind knowing she was taking care of her. My cat seemed very happy and I will definitely book with Vania again.”

About: I am a true Capitol Hill dog lover and I have always had a strong passion for animals, mostly for dogs. I have been caring for dogs since I was child, taking care of my mother’s beloved shitzu. Taking care of her helped me acquire basic canine behavior and taught me the responsibility of taking care of a pet. Most recently I raised my own best friend, Gelato an English Bulldog. I gained my breeder experience with Gelato and cared for her and her 6 puppies, until they were rehomed at 8 months. I enjoy taking long walks, which I consider the ultimate stress reliever and best way to exercise. I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I have 20 years of experience in the customer service field and enjoy striving to provide the best experience to my clients. In my personal time I am spending time with my 2 little girls teaching them how to play sports, and of course how to be loving pet owners. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! I’m currently working part time and will be available to walk most pets during early mornings hours during the week and mid day and evenings during the weekend. I definitely would like to know your pets temperament, and what might scare them. I know they will feel most comfortable at home but if they are with me, I’d like to keep a calm, pet friendly setting for them to be comfortable in.
“Another fantastic boarding experience with Malvi and Andrej, this time for 2 weeks while we were out of the country. The frequent updates and photos allowed us to really enjoy our vacation as we knew our pup was so well cared for and getting lots of outdoor playtime and snuggles. We feel lucky to have found a family who really understands (and embraces!) our pup’s personality quirks and individual needs. Benny always comes back to us happy, healthy and exhausted from all the fun. Highly, highly recommend!”


“Jeff was FANTASTIC throughout the 1.5 weeks that he looked after our recently adopted schnauzer. We were slightly nervous, having never boarded a dog before, but were immediately put at ease when we saw Jeff interact with our pup. Jeff was communicative and provided helpful updates with sweet pics of our very 😊 doggo. We're so grateful that Jeff was able to board our dog and will definitely look to him again during our next trip away from home. Highly recommend! :)”

“Stephanie was such a great host to my dog Bruno, she maintained communication/updates throughout the visit and was very attentive to my instructions for Bruno given he has a hard time adjusting to new places. Would definitely book with them again! -Lindsay”

“Kim cared for my pup as her own. She was very attentive to him and cared about his feelings. This was my pup’s first time with Kim so he was a little nervous. She cared for his every need and made sure he felt loved and comfortable in her care. Kim made sure that my pup had plenty of fresh air and had lots of attention, attention to the point where she slept near him so he would not feel lonesome. My pup was nice and calm when I picked him up which let me know Kim loved on him as I do. I will book again with Kim. Thank you Kim.”

I cannot recommend Aisha enough, they truly are animal lovers and will go above and beyond. I had a loving chihuahua mix, sure that is easy. but I also had an older special needs girl who was clearly given extra love and attention and I cannot thank them enough. I will book again!

Linda was perfect! Extremely timely, communicative and my senior doggy loved her. She sent photos and video updates Drop off and pick up very smooth My dog did not want to leave her when I picked her up. Perfection!! Thanks so much, will absolutely call Linda again.

Thank you again, Lilian, for taking such thoughtful care of Ruby and Ivy while I was away in Washington state. It gave me a great sense of peace knowing they were in a calm, attentive, and caring environment while I traveled. I appreciated the updates, communication, and overall kindness shown throughout their stay. It was clear they were well looked after and treated with patience and care. I would absolutely recommend your services to others looking for a trustworthy caretaker for their pets.

Dionne Is great 😊 My Pups & I love her service that she provided us. She was very caring, loving, and went above and beyond to make sure they felt comfortable. She walked them sent pics and videos and also fed them properly! I WILL MOST DEFINITELY BE REBOOKING WITH HER ❤️ MY ADVICE TO YOU ALL BOOK HER SHES AMAZING COMMUTATION IS AS WELL ‼️‼️‼️

Myesha is such an angel! This is the second time I’ve booked with her almost 6 months apart. When I went for drop off, my Prada instantly became a big puppy. You could tell she remembered her, enjoyed her, and was really happy to be back. That means a lot to me! Even on pick up, Prada was prancing around so happily as if she would see her again. That energy was so genuine and I truly appreciate Myesha. I’m not even sure Prada would let me book with someone else! ♥️.

Davida did such a great job, pickup and drop off were seamless and she sent pictures regularly which gave us peace of mind she was taken care of and helped us feel connected to our pup. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a good person to watch their pet!

Bethany was a lifesaver! We needed last-minute care, and she responded right away and met with us quickly to make it happen. Rezzi instantly got along with her sweet pup, Momo, and I received daily photo updates that kept me at ease. Bethany works from home, has a small backyard for playtime, and made sure Rezzi got her daily walks. Rezzi came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would definitely book with Bethany again!
