About: Huge animal lover so I’ll take care of your animal like it’s my own. I have 3 cats and a German short haired pointer pup who loves to play so if you want to set up play dates or board your pup at my home I hope it likes to play 😁 because my pup loooooooves playing. I can do boarding and sitting at my home as long as your pup gets along with other doggies. I have a big home, big fenced in yard and tons of treats. I also do drop ins and walking so if you need me to come to your home to take care of your pup or kitty that’s totally fine! Taking care of animals is second nature to me. I’ve had animals my whole life. Can’t wait to meet yours!

About: I’ve always had a dog growing up, our family dog recently just died of old age.. and think it’s probably to soon to get another dog so we’re going to take baby steps. I’m currently working part time, I have a 4 year old son who loves animals so feel it would be great to take on pet sitting part time.. I have a spacious home & also a fenced in back yard for dogs to easily roam around and be comfortable inside or outside etc.

“Athena was absolutely wonderful with Juno! She is so friendly and professional, and goes above and beyond. I forgot to leave my key for her and she came by my work to pick it up! Juno looked so happy when I got home, I could tell she had had a good day thanks to her walk.”

About: Hi! I'm Haylie, a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of all sizes. I'm based near Florida Ave NE in Washington, D.C., and I proudly serve clients across the DMV including Southeast D.C., Navy Yard, Capitol Hill, NE/SE neighborhoods, and parts of Maryland and Northern Virginia. I grew up surrounded by pets especially dogs and was always the one helping walk, feed, bathe, and care for them. I’ve even assisted dogs and cats during births when I was younger, which gave me deep insight into caring for animals at all life stages. Whether your pet needs a brisk walk, quiet cuddle time, medication, or just dependable daily visits, I’m here to help with care that’s loving, professional, and tailored to your routine. I'm comfortable with: ✔️ Dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes ✔️ Senior pets or those with special medical needs ✔️ Puppies and high-energy pets ✔️ Flexible scheduling and last-minute bookings when available Let’s make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! Pet care is an important part of my daily life. Living near Florida Ave NE, I’m often out walking dogs in Navy Yard or stopping by for quick visits around Capitol Hill and SE D.C. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and flexible with last-minute requests. Caring for dogs and cats isn’t just part of my routine, it shapes it. I love giving pets one-on-one attention and helping busy owners in the DMV feel at ease. I take pet safety and trust seriously, whether caring for pets in your home or mine. I follow all instructions closely, keep spaces clean and secure, and ensure your pet feels comfortable. On walks, I avoid crowded areas and match your dog’s pace. Pets staying with me enjoy a calm, pet-friendly environment. I provide regular updates so you feel connected and confident while you're away.

About: Hi all! Thanks for stopping by my profile. I currently work from home twice a week, which means I have plenty of flexibility and time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I have two dogs and one cat of my own, each of them extremely friendly, social, and welcoming to new furry friends. Whether you need someone to walk your dog, provide overnight care, or stop by for drop-in visits, I’d love to help make your life a little easier. I have hands-on experience giving medication, bathing my pets, and even clipping my cat’s nails, so I’m comfortable with pets who may need a little extra care. I’m happy to follow your routines and preferences to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and at home. If you have any questions or specific needs, feel free to reach out. I look forward to hearing from you and hope you choose me to care for your pet! I'm a professor so my schedule is pretty consistent, including days I work from home. I walk Sadie and Carter three times a day and feed them twice a day. They get a walk first thing in the morning, mid-day around lunch and then right before bed! I live in a large one bedroom apartment and my complex has a dog park! There's a lot of local parks nearby as well. My dogs and cat are definitely my children so if you choose me to take care of your pup or kitty, I'll treat them the same exact way.

About: Hi! I'm Kisha, and caring for animals has always been one of my greatest joys! 🐾 With over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, including 25 years of cat care and experience raising Persian cats, I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. I'm also comfortable caring for senior pets, pets with special needs, and administering medications. I know how difficult it can be to leave your fur babies in someone else's care. That's why I go the extra mile to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible and provide plenty of photos and updates, so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, belly rubs, cuddles, quiet window time, or simply having someone nearby, I adjust my care to what makes them happiest. My goal is simple: to treat your pets with the same patience, love, and attention I'd want for my own. ❤️ I work full-time, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable pet care before work, during lunch, after work, in the evenings, and on weekends. I do my best to accommodate each pet's usual routine and my clients' scheduling needs. For pets staying in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they can relax and feel like part of the family. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and rest while maintaining their normal feeding and care routines. I believe good communication is just as important as great pet care, so I always keep owners updated with photos and messages while they're away! 🐾❤️ Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! 🐾 I provide a clean, welcoming home where pets can feel safe, relaxed, and loved. My property has security cameras for added peace of mind, and because my yard is not fenced, dogs are always supervised and securely leashed whenever we're outside. Inside, pets have comfortable places to rest, play, and enjoy their surroundings. Cats especially love the sunny windows and peaceful spaces where they can relax and watch the world go by! I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level. I take introductions slowly, provide separate spaces when needed, and do my best to maintain each pet's familiar routines. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I treat them and their surroundings with the same care, respect, and attention I'd want for my own. ❤️

About: I have years of experience taking care of both dogs and cats, and with housesitting as well. I am able to help support animals who have health concerns, special needs, and anxiety. I can administer medication and give shots as well. I have a senior kitty and an adult age cat myself, so plenty of experience with senior care. And I have experience with dogs of all ages, including puppies and seniors. I am happy to work with any owner to accommodate their pets needs and make them feel comfortable while they are away. I am have nearly full availability the next couple of months, so please reach out and I should be able to accommodate any time frame. I will abide by all house and property rules for the animals safety which includes leashes, fences, walking paths. I am happy to work with owners on what they are most comfortable with. I do not bring pets inside my home as my cats are usually not friendly to that! But I am always happy to stay at others homes.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have been caring for the animals of friends and family for many years. I have experience caring for puppies and older dogs. I understand how hard it is to leave the furry member of the family to someone else’s care so I am dedicated to treating them as my own. I am currently a PhD student so I have many flexible hours throughout the day. With access to a car, I can reliably drop in and walk animals several times a day if needed. I can come to the home to care for and walk pets as needed. I know how to walk dogs of many sizes safely and have even leash trained my cat. Pets have different care needs and I am well equipped to adapt to each pet.

About: I have had my own dog for 14 years and walked neighbors dogs when I was growing up. Helped walk/watch friends dogs throughout college when they would be traveling. I work each week day but can watch/walk a dog morning, Lunch time, and post work. I also work close to home and can come let them out multiple times. I have a fenced in backyard with lots of grass that my dog loves playing fetch and taking a nap in the sun during the summer

“Toria did a great job. Cooper really liked her and they seem to have a connection. I will definitely use her again.”

“Lauran was fantastic while I was visiting Louisville for the Kentucky Oaks and Derby weekend. Her communication was top notch, always quick to respond and kept me updated throughout the two days. I especially appreciated her flexibility when I needed to add an extra walk at the last minute, she was incredibly accommodating and handled it without any issues. It’s a huge relief to find someone so reliable and easy to work with when you're visiting another city for an event. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a professional and adaptable walker!”

About: I have always had a fondness for animals and get incredible joy from them. "Look at that dog!" and "Can I pet your dog?" are common phrases of mine. I had a dog of my own from a rescue for 3 yrs and a family dog growing up (he unfortunately passed away from CHF). I treated them to feel loved every single day with walks, treats, and lots of chit chat! I love all breeds of dogs and treat them as my own! I frequently dogsit for friends and family while they are on vacation and have plenty of references singing my praises! I currently work part-time as a PRN PTA and have flexibility both last minute and can schedule in advance. I can dedicate full days during the week as needed, walks during the day or just check in visits depending on your pets needs. I take extra care while in your home; cleaning and refilling water, making the space tidy and ensuring your dog is safe and comfy. I live in an apartment complex and would be able to keep your dog crated or in the kitchen or bathroom area depending on potty training status.

About: I'll make sure your animal is well taken care of. I will treat them like my own. From a morning walk to a relaxing night, I'll be there for your animal. For me, fur baby care comes before myself. They get fed when it's time to eat, never late on that. Don't forget the morning treats for those teeth either. I always have an extra leash in my car. No fur baby ever leaves my eye site. I always walk the yard to make sure there is nothing that can harm them.

About: I have been a professional dog sitter/walker in Nashville for over 5 years now and currently new to Louisville but have over 15 years of experience with taking care of dogs! We had our family dog, Duke, who was a chocolate lab for 10 years until he passed away and my brother has a service dog who is still part of our family :) I also used to foster puppies while I was in college which was such a great experience! I have worked with anxious and reactive dogs before and know how to be patient with them. I also have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes. I promise to take care of your fur babies as if they were my own! Guaranteed to send great pics of them too! I nanny part time during the week so my weeks can vary but only during normal work hours 9-5. I have weekends free! I also have mornings and evenings available to help with feeding and potty breaks! In my apartment complex, I have a fenced in dog park that I have full access to and the ability to take them on walks around the complex as well! With staying in a clients home, I treat it like my own space which I always leave clean and make sure the dog is comfortable as well :)

“jen was awesome! booked her super last minute and it was my first time using anything like this so i was a little nervous, but she made me feel a lot better!”

About: I've been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember! Ever since I was a child, I've had a very strong connection with the furry friends around me! I always take the extra time to learn as much as I can about a pet's habits, likes/dislikes, etc. It's my personal goal to make the world a better place for every person (and pet) around me :) My schedule is currently wide open, so I can work with almost any time frame that works for you! I am looking to make animal care my full time career! At my own home, I have a fenced-in yard and a very loving and playful canine companion who is always ready to meet new friends! I have a wealth of experience when it comes to helping animals feel safe and secure.

About: With over 15 years of experience your dog will be well loved in my care. I am well versed with different breeds of dogs and provide attentive, compassionate, fun for your pup. I am a business owner so my schedule allows flexibility. I am able to accommodate your needs as far as how often your dog needs to be let out, taken on walks, etc. I am happy to come to your home and watch your dog in the comfort of your home so that they don’t need to get used to unfamiliar territory.
