“Laurie and Richard helped me last minute when I struggled to find a dog sitter on a holiday weekend. They were also very accommodating to my travel schedule which was a little flux. My dog can be rather anxious but she quickly warmed up to them. The fact that they have a house with a yard was also a benefit to my pup! They also are true animal lovers and very patient with each animals needs and making sure they are comfortable. I would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of a pet sitter!”

“Michael did a great job with my little rescue Yorkie, Gracie. He sent pictures and updates on how she was doing and was very communicative throughout the process. Gracie is a velcro dog who is very shy and anxious around new people and dogs. She seemed to acclimate to Michael and his daughter quickly which I could tell in the pictures. She had been very content and happy once since I picked her up. Will definitely be boarding Gracie with him again in the future.”

“Sabrina was an incredible sitter for my pup, Leia! She was so caring, kind, and attentive to Leia’s needs. Leia typically takes some time to warm up in a new place given her separation anxiety, but Sabrina was able to make her feel right at home almost instantly. When Leia got anxious from noises outside, Sabrina even played calming music to help her relax. Her communication was fantastic, she kept me in the loop constantly and sent tons of photos. With the extreme heat and poor air quality during Leia’s stay, Sabrina made sure Leia’s safety was her top priority. Even over a longer 5 day stay, I had complete peace of mind knowing Leia was being looked after like she was her own. I’m so grateful and would absolutely book Sabrina again in a heartbeat!”

About: Hi, I'm Jenn! Lifelong dog person in Washington DC (McLean Gardens area). I was a dog mom for 19 wonderful years to my puggle, Bailey Boo — she taught me everything I know about stubborn personalities, senior dog care, medication schedules, and the true meaning of a 2am potty break. I work from home, so your pup won't be sitting around alone. Expect plenty of walks, playtime, belly rubs, and a couch with their name on it. I'm comfortable with seniors, puppies, shy rescues, and pups with special needs or meds. Whether it's boarding, daycare, or drop-in visits, I'll treat your dog like they're my own — and yes, you'll get plenty of photo updates. I know exactly how it feels to miss them. I work from home full-time as a UX consultant, so I'm around all day — no 9-to-5 gap, no rushing home. My days naturally revolve around walks, playtime, and potty breaks built right into my routine: morning walk to start the day, midday break, afternoon adventure, and evening wind-down. My schedule is flexible, so drop-ins and boarding fit easily, including weekdays when other sitters are stuck at an office. Your pup basically gets a stay-at-home buddy who plans the day around them. In my home, your pup joins the household, not a kennel. I work from home so they're never left alone for long stretches — always supervised, and I follow your rules on crates, feeding, meds, and routines exactly as you set them. You'll get photo updates so you never have to wonder how they're doing. **In your home:** I treat it with the same respect — stick to your pet's routine, keep everything clean and secure, leave the place as I found it. Safety first always: secure doors, no off-leash unless you say so, and straight to your vet or an emergency vet if anything seems off.

“Kayla and Adam were wonderful hosts for our little Bonnie! This was Bonnie’s first time staying anywhere without us, but Kayla and Adam obviously love dogs and were simply great with her. Kayla sent reports with pictures several times a day, putting our minds at ease. And the fact that our dog, a very nervous and picky eater, was relaxed enough to eat on her first day told us very clearly that she was doing fine and felt at home with Kayla and her family. Thank you Kayla and Adam - we’ll be back!!”

Sunny took incredible care of our dog Huxley. She provided him with lots of love, tons of activity, and a safe environment. Sunny is very professional and clearly invested in providing good care, including medication and the demanding grooming requirements of a Doodle. We were able to book last minute, as well as organize pick-up and drop-off. We will definitely look to book Sunny again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their dog!!

Ewelina was amazing with Remy. She took the time to meet our pup a few days before drop off and was so patient with her timidness. Throughout the weekend Ewelina kept us updated on how Remy was doing and sent some super cute pictures. We definitely recommend her, trust her, and would use her again!

Mia and her dad,Hector were the best sitters for our (sometimes!) crazy puppy Malibu. It was our first time leaving on a week long trip without taking her, and Mia gave updates with pictures almost every day. I felt very relieved that we chose the right family to partner with. Everyone was very kind. We will definitely use them again in the future! Highly recommend! 🐾😊

My pup had a great time with Tori. I really appreciated how communicative Tori was, and she offered a meet and greet before booking which put my mind at ease, especially because my dog is reactive to other dogs. My only super minor constructive suggestion would be to send owners more photos of their pups. Tori sent a couple, but there’s no such thing as too many! I would recommend her services.
