“Jill was great! From the pictures it looked like Remy was having a great time and her home is set up very well for dog sitting! She’s very down to earth but you can also tell how much she cares for the dogs she watches.”

“Jacquelyne was an amazing sitter and took such great care of my cockapoo for a few days. I always felt good about dropping him off and knew he was in good hands. Great communication and photos along the way as well!”

About: I experienced love at first sight with my dog, Peluchine in 2005. He lived 19 beautiful years by my side, he peacefully passed in May, 2024. While having my own dog, I learned to care for Peluchine (sassy Bichone Frisé) during all stages of his life (puppy stage, teenage stage, and elderly stage). During the years I mastered a steady routine that worked for him and I. With that being said, I specialize in senior care, long steady walks, and medication administration. I strive to care for each dog like I cared for mine! I’m available for dog day care on the weekends 8am-8pm. I am available for dog walking Monday - Friday 5pm-9pm. I enjoy hiking and beach walks on the weekend and if your dog likes field trips, I’ll be more than happy to have your fur baby tag along! I live in a dog friendly neighborhood. I have a large fenced yard with ample space for your dog to run around and play. Fenced area is more than 8 FT tall.

About: Hello! I am a recent transplant to the District from Southern California. I love dogs and I grew up with a yellow lab named Sunny. I've been dog walking and pet-sitting for 5+ years and I have experience taking care of a variety of breeds (including small and large dogs). I went to UCLA for undergraduate and I now work for a software company in Client Services in Virginia. I work full time during the day, but I am available on weekdays after work and on weekends. I like to stay active and I would love to take a dog companion on long walks or hikes. Some places I like to dog-walk are Rock Creek Park and the C&O Canal in Georgetown. I can't wait to meet your pup!

“It’s clear that you truly love animals and treat them like family. Nami came home happy and relaxed! I’m so grateful for your service and will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend”

“I recently rescued a deaf dog, Artemis, and was nervous about leaving her with a sitter after only a week together. Lisa made the whole experience easy and stress-free. After a meet-and-greet with Lisa and her dog Rigby, followed by a visit to her home, I knew Artemis would be in good hands. During her stay, Lisa provided updates, photos, and videos that gave me peace of mind. Artemis loved the large yard, which gave her plenty of space to run and play. I highly recommend Lisa and would gladly trust her with Artemis again.”

About: I've done it all — puppy chaos, senior snuggles, and everything in between. With 20+ years of hands-on experience and dogs I've raised myself, I know what your pet needs. I work a flexible full-time schedule from my home where I can care for your pet and take breaks to walk and play with them. If your pet is more comfortable in their own home, I am available to sit them there as my daytime job is remote. I am tidy and leave every space the same (if not better) than when I entered. Your pet's comfort and safety are my top priority. Having grown up in a home where dogs of all sizes were cherished family members, I understand how to read a pet's needs and create a calm, secure environment. I've personally raised and trained my own dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, so I'm experienced in adapting care routines to each stage of life. In my home, pets are never an afterthought — they're treated with the same patience, attention, and love I'd want for my own family members (human or otherwise). 🧡

“Isao and Rezairyl treated my dog with great care and love. My dog has separation anxiety and the made sure to give him the attention he needed and plenty of walks and playtime. Would highly recommend and will book again!”

About: I'm around dogs all the time. I used to work in a dog-friendly office so I got to play with them and pet them during business hours (which I admittedly did quite a bit of) and I am a dog owner so I get to play with them and pet them when I am home. I also watch my sisters' dogs when they go out of town. Long story short, I have lots of experience raising, caring for, and loving dogs and would treat yours like I would my own. I was recently laid off so am home and available essentially 24/7 right now and would love to be able to help out with your pet care needs, whatever they may be. I have one dog of my own that has full reign of my condo. I do not have a yard, but I take him out for walks/potty breaks at least 3 times a day. I can walk your dog as often as you like and if I’m house sitting I will respect whatever your rules are (ie if no pets allowed on the couch while you’re there then same when I’m there) I can walk your dog however frequently and for whatever amount of time you prefer. I usually take my own dog on one long walk (about 1 hr to 1.5 hrs) a day and then a shorter one (about 20-30 min) so that’s the amount of time I’m used to spending on walks. I am also available to dog sit at your home or simply check in on your pet as well. I can even bring my own dog over to hang out with your pets (with your expressed permission up front of course).

“Christopher tol good care of my big girl Ula! He was attentive and let her take her time on walks to sniff around! It was comforting getting updates throughout the day to make sure Ula was okay.”

“Lisa and Tulli are wonderful. My dog can be a bit of a challenge but Lisa handled him well. A good experience and it was a pleasure to meet such a nice neighbor.”

Brandon E.

“Karina was a great dog sitter! She was very responsive and communicative before and during the process! She sent updates of my pup which I appreciated and even displayed flexibility when I was able to pick my pup up earlier. My dog came back tired because of all the fun she had!”

Michelle U.

“Arriyanna did such a great job taking care of Emma, she gave her lots of attention and made sure that she was ok. Despite it being Valentine’s Day and a rainy day at that she worked out perfectly. She also kept me posted on how my girl was doing so definitely recommend leaving your furry one with her! ???”

About: Big heart, gentle hands, and plenty of treats! I’m dedicated to providing a fun, stress-free environment for your pets. Whether it’s long walks or cozy cuddles, your fur baby will be in the best of care with me. Full-time care for your best friend! Because I’m a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility to provide around-the-clock attention. Our typical day includes cozy indoor playtime and daily neighborhood walks with my baby in tow. It’s the perfect environment for pets who love a consistent routine and a family atmosphere. I can't wait to welcome your pup into our daily adventures! I’m a firm believer that pets are family! When your fur baby stays with me, they get full access to cuddles on the couch and endless yard fun (fenced). If I’m visiting your home, I take pride in being a respectful guest who focuses entirely on keeping your pet happy and tired out. You can expect plenty of photo updates, quick communication, and one very happy pet upon your return!

“My dog Sunday and I went to have a meet and greet with Maria Monday evening and Sunday went for daycare the next day. She was definitely nervous being in a new place especially after over a year of not leaving my side. Maria appeared concerned that she may be too nervous, but was quite able to put my dog at ease. She let Sunday and the other dogs spend lots of time hanging out and cuddling with her and took them out to the park to get lots of exercise. I got messages and pictures throughout the day letting me know how she was doing, which helped me feel more confident leaving Sunday with her. Sunday looked happy when I picked her up and knocked out right when we got home! I would totally be a repeat customer?”

“Pablo and his family are great! Waffles and Benny had a great time and came back home happy and tired. 10/10 would recommend.”
