Pet Sitting Dover Crystal

“Megan is our go-to sitter for dropping in on our cat Ivy. She is very attentive with Ivy and often stays longer than she is booked for. Ivy does not like many people and she loves Megan. We travel a lot and it gives us peace of mind when Megan is dropping in—she shares lots of pictures and detailed descriptions every day. Thank you Megan!”

“Sarah was wonderful with the cats. They got along with her really well and she was very thorough in giving us updates and photos. I will definitely be asking her to cat sit again in the future!”

About: I believe in the Golden Rule of Pet Care: I will treat your pets as I would treat my own. I’ve been around animals my entire life, growing up in a home with dogs and now caring for three cats of my own for over 12 years. That experience has given me a strong understanding of how different every pet can be, from energetic and social, to shy and anxious. I understand that “pets” are truly members of the family. What I offer is thoughtful, individualized care. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level so they feel safe and at ease while you’re away. During visits, I’m attentive and engaged. Whether that means walks, playtime, or simply keeping your furry baby company so they don’t feel alone. My time with your dog or cat is special, so I won't be scrolling on my phone during our visits (except to send you photos and updates!). I’m also detail-oriented when it comes to feeding routines, home care, and maintaining a clean, stress-free environment. You can expect consistent communication and updates, so you always know how your dog or cat is doing. My goal is to provide reliable, high-quality care that gives both you and your pets complete peace of mind. Ideal for weekday walks and midday check-ins while you’re at work! Fits naturally into your routine. Monday through Friday for morning and midday visits (before 5 PM) Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. Since I provide care in your home, I want to make sure to follow your house rules and your pet’s usual schedule as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding times, walk routines, or favorite play activities. Let’s discuss specifics.

“Brittney was absolutely great!! She was super communicative and won Magnus’ heart!! Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for someone to do drop in visits!!”

Martina F.

“Spencer and Julia were fantastic! They were super flexible for a meet and greet before completing a drop in visit for me. During the visit, they messaged me when they arrived, made sure to leave a note about how my dog did, and reassured me that they had locked the doors back when they left — all without me asking first. They sent multiple pictures and went above and beyond what I had asked them to do to care for my pup! Can’t recommend them highly enough!”

Caroline E.

“Amanda was amazing with Kimi, we came back to a very happy camper kitty!”

Shannon B.

“Katherine took great care of my senior cat! Betty takes medicine twice a day and Katherine handled that no problem along with other instructions for Betty’s care. Would recommend and use Katherine again!!”

Carrie B.

“Aly is great! She dropped in to care for my cat for several days during the holidays. She took great care of her during that time, following all the instructions we discussed, and providing thoughtful details and wonderful pictures of the visits. Definitely recommended.”

“Emma dropped in to care for our cat while we were on vacation. I loved receiving photos and notes from her visits. We returned to a happy, healthy kitty!”

Elizabeth T.

“Summer was such a pleasure to work with! She was very communicative and easy to talk to. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and she made sure her to tell me if she was coming earlier or later on her scheduled days. I’d be more than happy to work with her again in the future!”

Morgan S.

“Carrie did a fantastic job checking in on our cat, Pasha. She was very communicative, diligent, and caring. He looked happy in all the photos. We’d definitely book her again.”

About: I’ve had and watched a variety of pets, from small and large dogs to rabbits and turtles. I currently cannot have pets, so I will love yours as my own! As someone in a remote position, I have lots of flexibility needed to take care of your sweet pets. I am able to accommodate many timelines and needs! I care for pets by learning about their specific personality needs ahead of time and ensuring my care adapts to that. I do not currently take care of pets in my own home.

About: I have pet-sat for people in my neighborhood for around 10 years. I have watched dogs of all ages and sizes and am flexible with the amount of times you want me to come/what type of care you need for your pets! I can do overnight or drop-in walks! References are available upon request!! I work from home most weekdays and am available on weekends, which gives me a flexible schedule to care for your pets! I’m available for drop-in visits and dog walks on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays, and throughout the weekend. I also offer overnight and extended pet sitting, whether that means staying in your home or stopping by multiple times a day. I truly love spending time with animals and have over 10 years of pet-sitting experience. My goal is to make sure your pets feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away, giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in great hands!! I have pet sat for dogs of all ages and will adjust my care for your dog based on their needs. I offer walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care for when you are out of town and they need someone to be around!! I have been walking dogs and petsitting for over 10 years in the northern VA area and have many references available!

About: I grew up with a dog and cat and pet sat for people since 2013. I took a pre-vet class throughout high school where I learned about feeding, cutting nails, grooming, restraint, etc. I also worked as a vet assistant for a few years where I expanded on those skills and learned what to look out for and how to care for any type of pet. I work from home a decent bit and/or work half days so I am pretty flexible during the week days. My work is also flexible so I can prioritize the times you need me to be there. Since I have 2 cats in a one bedroom apartment, I won't be bringing pets to my place. When I go to your home, I will try to make the pets feel comfortable and be a happy smiling face to them. Of course, I will give them some love, pets, food, water, or whatever you and the pet need from me!

“Jiesen did a great job caring for my cat with lots of pictures, videos, and regular updates. He went above and beyond to ensure my pet had plenty of food and water for a short gap before I returned home.”

Robert W.

“Lisa took excellent care of our 4 cats and followed our instructions perfectly. It’s clear from the photos that she got them each to warm up to her quickly and spent quality time with them. Definitely recommend!”

About: I'm a reliable and frequent house/plant/cat sitter based in Glover Park with my own car to get from place to place. Can do anything from quick check-ins/feedings to litter box cleanings and cuddles for pets that need extra attention. I have an 11 AM-7 PM full-time job in Shaw, so I typically stop by houses before work, though I can come by after as well. In others' homes, I definitely make a point to be unobtrusive and let pets go about their usual business + get used to me being there before I approach them (unless they're friendly from the jump). I want to be respectful of your home and your pets' space!

About: Hi, I’m Haley, and I’ve been a dog lover my whole life! I’ve been lucky to grow up with dogs since I was five, and they’ve always been a huge part of my family. Right now, I help care for my sweet senior girl, who’s taught me just how special every stage of a dog’s life can be. I started walking and caring for dogs in high school, and it quickly became one of my favorite things to do. Whether it’s an energetic pup who’s ready to explore or a senior dog who just needs some extra love and a slow stroll, I’m here to make sure your dog gets the care and attention they deserve. I know how much your dog means to you, and I’ll treat them like my own—because that’s how I’ve always believed dogs should be treated. I’d love to meet your furry friend and make their day a little brighter! I work from home on Tuesdays and Fridays, which gives me the flexibility to be around and available for dog care. I also have the weekends completely free, so I can dedicate extra time to walks, playtime, and giving your dog the attention they deserve. I take great care in ensuring the safety of every dog I look after. I always keep dogs on a leash during walks, and your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I treat every dog as if they were my own—ensuring they are safe, comfortable, and well-cared for at all times. You can trust that I will always act in the best interest of your pet and provide clear communication throughout the care process.

About: I've been dog-sitting for a few years for friends and family and love having extra furry friends around the house! I've been around cats and dogs my whole life, have raised a few puppies, and currently live with a very sweet dog named Olive and an adorable cat named Mancha. I currently work from home so I can spend all day with your pups! Available for boarding for most weekdays and weekends except when traveling. I live near a trail for easy walks, and Olive loves to hang our with her doggy friends! I have multiple bedrooms if your pup prefers their space and a spare crate and tons of extra toys ❤️
