“Sush is cordial and very friendly. She welcomed our Keegan with love and affection. She has a beautiful and ample space for daycare and board. Totally reliable and trustworthy. 5 stars.”


“Katherine and Brian took excellent care of our very active shepherd mix! They are responsible and sent many updates throughout the stay. Highly recommend!!”


“I am super happy with this pet sitter. This is her full time retirement job so my dog receives the care, stimulation, and attention it needs in a safe and comfortable environment. I can’t use conventional daycares since my dog is a foster and there are increased risks of fights and injuries with many dogs and not enough one on one attention. Her yard has a high and fully secured fence and is big enough to run around in for my husky. She owns a dog that is very friendly which helps give my dog the company and exercise he needs from playing tag in the yard. Huskies have high exercise needs and by the end of the day my husky is tired which is great and less work for me to do. My dog is also slightly special needs and inclined towards seizures and she was very accommodating and administered his medicine when I didn’t have time to get to it one morning. She is quick and diligent with responses and kept track of everything through the day so I got a report from rover that told me how many times he peed or pooped that day, as well as videos and pictures. This will be my go-to for daycare and pet sitting needs for as long as I have my foster dog. Would highly recommend if you want an ideal place to leave your dog where you can be assured that it will be safe and receive full attention and care.”


“Jie is our new go to for doggy day care, for my 15 week old puppy. She sent updates throughout the day, and I felt like he was very safe and happy to be in her home.”


About: I’ve been dog sitting for friends and strangers alike ever since I graduated and moved to DC in 2019! It all started because I had such a deep love for dogs, but was not yet ready to have one of my own. Nowadays, I share an adorable little mutt with my boyfriend, and we split the care for her fairly evenly. Because of this, if you’re interested in boarding your pet, they need to be friendly with other dogs; ours absolutely LOVES them. Otherwise, I am happy to pet sit at your residence. Additionally, I have experience with elderly dog care and will cater to whatever their needs are. I’m a full-time corporate girlie with a flexible, hybrid work schedule. I’m normally in the office 2-3 days/week, but can work from home the entire duration of your pet’s stay, if that is desired. I’m happy to work with you to create the exact level of care and attention you desire for your doggo. Your pet would have free rein of the house while we’re home and would be kept in a separate room/ crate than our dog when we’re away. We do have a yard, although it’s not fenced in, so we let our dog run around on a 50 ft leash in the backyard; we could do the same for your dog!

“Rebecca and her family have treated Wylie with such care on multiple visits now! She’s extremely reliable and flexible with our schedule. Wylie enjoys spending time in her house and backyard too! We will definitely request her again for dog sitting in the future.”


“Sabrina is awesome! Our dog can be a little anxious or defensive, but Sabrina made him feel right at home and by the time we arrived to pick him up, they’d become fast friends. Highly recommend doggy daycare with Sabrina.”



“Courtney is truly the BEST! She watched our 5-month-old puppy Leo while I was at work, and I couldn’t have asked for a more loving, reliable sitter. Every day, she gave him so much attention, playtime, and cuddles—he was literally wagging his whole body every time she showed up! 🐶💛 As a puppy, Leo can be a bit of a handful, but Courtney was so patient and sweet with him. She kept him on his routine, sent me the cutest updates, and made my workdays so much less stressful knowing he was in such good hands. I’d come home to a happy, tired, and very loved little pup 🥹 I feel so lucky to have found someone who truly cares. Thank you, Courtney, for treating Leo like your own! I am so grateful for you 🐾✨”


“Scruffy loved his three days of doggy daycare with Miryam! She took him for lots of walks and he came home very happy. She was a great communicator and we look forward to seeing her and her husband again!”


“Megan watched Pinot for a day and sent lots of pictures and videos of him having a blast! He played so much with her corgi that Pinot put himself straight to bed the minute he got home (this NEVER happens). Her home and environment felt very safe and comfortable in trusting her to watch our puppy. Highly recommend Megan!”


“Amy saved the day for my chiweenie, Willar and I. Her pup Winston is a such a cute little guy and very mild mannered. Amy took great care of my little senior pup currently on a special diet and needing lots of attention and affection. Amy was also flexible and understanding of my own separation anxiety being away from my furbaby 😄”


“Luna loves hanging out with Nyla!!! She’s always a happy girl when I pick her up. 😊”


About: Coming soon my 3 furry Colombians 🐕🦺❤️🐾... Meanwhile, your faithful friend is in my hands! I am a dog lover with a heart divided between two countries: while I hope I can bring my three furry children from Colombia (a Pitbull full of energy and two loving Cockers), I want to take care of yours as if it were mine. - 🐾 **I know what 'misunderstood' races need**: Pitbulls deserve respect and patience, not stereotypes. The Cockers, attention and delicacy. - 🦴 **I adapt the care to his character**: Not all dogs are the same, and I learned that with mine! - ❤️ **I miss my dogs, but that makes me give more love to yours**." * When I take care of your dog, I don't just follow instructions: ✅ **Real experience** with strong and sensitive breeds. ✅ **Safe rides** for Pitbulls (or soft games for elderly Cockers). ✅ **Updated in signs of canine stress** (the Cockers are masters in that!). ✅ **Flexible and communicative**: I will send you photos and updates, because I know what it's like to be away from your pet." * Is your furry shy, hyperactive or a little study? I understand your language perfectly! For now, my three dogs are far away, but that only means that I will have more space in my heart (and in my agenda) to pampers yours I adapt my routine to give your pet the rhythm it needs: intense walks for the strong like my Pitbull, naps and pampering for the delicate like my Cockers, and always with updates that show you their day as if you were here!" ** My day is moulded to your dog: controlled energy for strong, patience for sensitive, and photos that steal a smile from you." * I offer personalised and 100% safe care in MY HOME, where your pet will receive:** 🏡 **An adapted space**: Separate areas for active dogs (like my Pitbull) and quiet areas for the most sensitive (like my Cockers). 🐕 **Experience with 'difficult' breeds**: I know how to manage strong energy and anxiety with patience and proven techniques. - 📲 **Total transparency**: I send photos, videos and daily reports so you can see how happy your furry is. - ❤️ **Seasonal love**: While I wait for my 3 dogs (who are in Colombia), your pet will be my absolute priority." **Why in my house? ** "I prefer to care in a controlled environment, where everything is prepared for safety and comfort, no surprises!" _.

“Highly recommend! Simone was nice, empathetic, and patient! She sent regular updates on our dog with photos and videos. She let our dog sit on her lap while she was working. As a dog parent herself, she clearly knows how to take amazing care of pups!”


About: I have my own Doberman ! And I used to work at at doggy daycare center for 2 years. I’ve taken care of different kind of doggy. I wake up around 8 at the morning and I will take them for a walk and then they will have their breakfast. After lunch I will take him for a small walk and later on hangout at around 4pm. they will have dinner at around 6 pm and then have a night walk at around 8-9pm I live at a apartment but downstairs have a big dog park. And I mostly WFH, so I will probably spend 99.9%with them, they will have my in their sight.

About: Hello from the mother, daughter, and dad team! Apart from the necessary cuddles, activity, and attention we offer, all and any instructions will be followed to a t. My parents and I have been providing care to beloved pets for a little over 13 years and never get tired of it! Due to the nature of my job (work from home) and my parents are retired, so, your pooch or kitty will always be within our sight and well accompanied. We are fit individuals that live close to many parks and trails, free of traffic. We look forward to meeting your furry companion and taking the best care of them, as if they were our own. I work from home and throughout the day I have dedicated time set aside to go on walks, play with, love on, and take care of your babies! And as mentioned, my parents are retired and have plenty of free time throughout the week. We are attentive to the pets needs and safety. We follow your close instructions on what is best to do, what to avoid, what they can and can’t eat. And of course, are completely transparent about how your pet is doing.

About: I have taken care of many dogs, from wily hunting dogs to gentle doodles. Every dog has their own personality and it is important to understand that. I love training dogs and understand what they need to be safe. I am a early riser and love a walk first thing in the morning. I walk in a local park almost everyday. I would love a dog to join me in this. I have a love for dogs and enjoy giving them freedom but their safety is very important. I have a mostly fenced in yard (it’s having some work done too it) and it’s very safe to play in. I love going for walks and feel that exercise and brain stimulation are the best things to keeping a fur friend happy.


“Guy helped us out when we needed a Doggie Day Care while we were visiting Arlington National Cemetery for an interment. We didn't know how long the 3 ceremonies would take, and he told us that he would help us for whatever we needed. With all that was going on for us, he offered comfort in taking care of our beloved Toby.”


“Caroline was great communicating leading up to watching our pup, and provided prompt updates when we texted her throughout our dog’s day of daycare. Our dog was tired after a long day of sniffing around her yard!”


About: My fiancé and I both work fully remote, which means your pup will have constant care, attention, and plenty of outdoor time in our fully fenced yard. We both grew up with dogs and have plenty of experience with dogs. We have a friendly mini Aussiedoodle who loves company, and we're an active household that enjoys daily walks and playtime. Whether your dog needs extra cuddles, structured routines, or just a safe space to relax, we're here to meet all their needs and make them feel right at home! Since both my fiancé and I work from home, we're able to give dogs our full attention throughout the day—whether that’s potty breaks, playtime in our fenced yard, walks in our neighborhood, or just relaxing nearby while we work. In our home, pets are treated like part of the family. We maintain a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they can relax and feel secure. We follow your pet’s usual schedule as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding times, medication, walks, or crate routines. Our fenced yard allows for safe, supervised outdoor time, and we offer lots of play, affection, and attention throughout the day. We’re attentive to each dog’s individual needs—whether they’re high-energy and love to play or more laid-back and prefer quiet companionship. Your pet’s well-being and happiness are always our top priority.

Kerstyn A.Star Sitter
“Kerstyn is my preferred animal and house sitter whenever I go away. She is a responsible adult that I trust and my animals love her. I know that my furry loved ones are getting attention, exercise and being cared for properly. My dog is a complete traitor and although he had a whole king sized mom and dad bed to himself, he snuggled in with Kerstyn in the guest room on the smaller bed. She took him on a fun fall field trip and he got to go to the park and get treats. I think he'd be ok if I went away more so he could have his friend over! I'm actually giving her information to my neighbors across the street who are seeking someone to come and stay over with their 2 large dogs.”

She recently watched my 3 year old mini aussie doodle, Sailor, who can be a handful. When I went to pick him up he didn’t want to leave because he was having so much fun playing in the yard. Sailor also requires daily medication and Cho made sure he got everything he needed. She’s fantastic and it’s nice to be able to travel worry free knowing Sailor is safe and having the best time.”
