Cady did an amazing job with our boy! She even hung out with the cats and cleaned up a mess she didn’t have to. Highly recommend her and will use her again.

Hope is a wonderful, thoughtful, excellent communicator and we are so lucky to have her compassion and skill watching our little monsters. Our dogs can be a handful sometimes, and they are spoiled rotten so I am nervous leaving them with new people. Hope cares for them thoughtfully, sends updates and communicates regularly, and I truly cannot recommend her more strongly!

Alena was so sweet with my pup Mochi! She gave her lots of love and attention, made sure she was well exercised, and even worked on the current commands we are teaching. Alena is punctual, safe, and communicative. She is the best dog walker and sitter around!

About: Living out in the county,I have had and been around animals of all kinds since I was 8. I love taking are of animals and with my current nursing school schedule, sitting has become a great way to make money doing something I enjoy. I am currently attending nursing school which consists of hybrid courses. So it has left me with enough time to be able to care for pets before and after classes. Sitting is a great way for me to make money while also allowing me enough time to study and isn’t as time consuming like a part time job. I do work 12 hour shifts on Saturdays and Sundays though, so I am willing to sit on those days if the owners are okay with them being alone for that long or have other arrangements for them to be let out on those days. I will care for the pets the exact way you want me to. If they need to be crated and let out more frequently, I am willing to make it work. If they can be left out in a fenced in yard and just need to checked on every so often, I can do that too! I’m very flexible as every situation is different!

About: I have owned and taken care of pets since I was a little kid, ranging from mini Australian shepherds to retrievers, labs and German shepherds. This means I have experience training young puppies and taking care of senior dogs. I also have experience with taking dogs on runs (since I love to run), which helps with high-energy dogs. I love dogs and am more than happy to help other people with pet care since I know finding the right person for the job can be difficult. :) I’m a teacher so this summer I’m earning some extra cash by nannying and dogsitting. I’m available 4-5 days a week including the weekends (and have no problem helping in the early mornings and late nights), so my schedule is pretty flexible and I’m very willing to fit multiple in-house visits and dog walking/running into my routine. I care for pets in my clients’ homes so I am skilled in giving all pets the attention they need both inside and outside the home, including playing with them, taking them on walks and runs, or just sitting down and keeping them company depending on the age and needs they require. I take pride in fulfilling all pets’ routines and owners’ expectations.

About: I've had dogs in my life since I was 8 and all my dogs have shown great love towards me because I give them the full love back. I am known in the family as the family caretaker when our dogs get old and need special attention. The reason I take care of my dogs when they get older because I have the patience, attentions, and most of all, love in supporting them through their elderly stage. All pets deserve the best and I am more than happy to provide that! I am currently taking the year off from work to travel the world but in between my trips I have a lot of free time and feel it can be better spent taking care of pets while other people can enjoy trips or another activity that requires them to leave their pet at home. I have a 5-year old Havanese and I take him on walks daily, I make sure he is bathe at least once a month, and try to take him on as many trips so I can, so he can enjoy the world as much I as I do.

About: I have plenty of experience with both cats and dogs. Growing up I had two cats and one medium sized dog we rescued. At 16, I started working at a pet boarding facility. I did that for about 3 years in addition to regularly volunteering at my local animal shelters. I have personally worked with my fair share of puppies and sick barn cats. I now have a German Shepherd and I hope to one day run my own mini farm! I currently run my own business (remote) so I have lots of free time to care for people’s pets! I love animals so I figured this is the perfect way to spend my free time and help other pet parents with trustworthy, reliable service. Every pet is different and may have different needs. I always listen to my clients specific needs for their pet and follow their guidance first. That being said; In general, I make sure there is fresh clean drinking water, meals are fed, and medications are administered at the proper time. I also clean up after any messes that may be left behind (potty accidents, messy eaters, etc). Play time, a trip outside, and some snuggles is also always on the agenda. I also love to send photo/video updates so you can see that your pet is happy and healthy.

About: Born with a dog-shaped hole in my heart, one that could only be filled by meeting every dog on the planet. Pinocchio, my initial dachshund mentor at the tender age of one, set me on this fateful path. At the ripe old age of 13, I launched a dog-walking empire to fund a 7th-grade DC school escapade! My parents' house and its surrounding sidewalk have seen more tail wags than a dog park. I'm here to bring genuine, doggone love to every woof in Northwest Washington! As a freelance videographer and editor I am in the unique position to have the flexibility in my schedule to fit your every need. My weeks all look different but I can move things around to make things work. While I’m unable to host your delightful fur-babies in my home at this moment I hope that this will be a service that I can offer in the near future.

I have experience doing at home visits with senior dogs and cats, administering medications, and caring for special needs animals.

This was our first experience with Rover and I could not be more pleased with how great Morgan was with Champ! She met him a few days before the scheduled drop-ins and he immediately started licking her and asking for pets before she even finished coming inside (Champ is normally super shy and barks a lot). Morgan was very communicative and sent several pictures and updates during each drop-in. I hate leaving Champ (I’ve only boarded him three times in his 8 years of life and am always paranoid if he’s not right by me lol) so I was nervous about how it would be for someone else to come into my house to watch him but it was the best decision. Champ hates fireworks so Morgan moved his bedding into the bathroom where he was hiding and she sat in there with him until he calmed down. If I boarded Champ he would’ve been in a kennel near a bunch of other dogs freaking out about the fireworks but Champ got to be in his own home where he feels safe. She went above and beyond any expectations I had. I laid out some pee pads and sure enough, Champ understandably had a couple of accidents because he wouldn’t go outside during the fireworks and Morgan cleaned up without any complaints. I would be thrilled to have Morgan take care of Champ again next time I go out of town!

About: I’ve regularly helped friends, neighbors, and family members with pet sitting and dog walking. I understand how important routines, safety, and communication are, and I always make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I am available at anytime during the day and evening but the best is to let me know your desired hours and I will check my schedule. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I’m reliable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s needs and personality. My goal is to help pets feel safe, happy, and loved while giving owners peace of mind.

About: Growing up, animals were such a huge part of my life. If I ever went missing as a kid, you know you could find me where the pets were. I grew up with two dogs of my own who were my best friends in the world. My obsession with animals only grew as I got older and was able to find jobs that allowed me to be around them all the time. Since I was 14 years old, I’ve been working with animals in professional settings. Starting with puppy-sitting, and growing into so many different ways. I’ve worked in daycare and kenneling facilities, done my fair share at dog groomers and even managed to work my way into veterinary medicine. Your fur-babies have always been such a huge part of my life and I’m so grateful for the opportunity to get to be their friend. Currently I am working at a local dog daycare/boarding facility where I take care of around 35-40 dogs at a time. I love spending time with people’s pets and providing daycare/boarding for people who are looking for someone who wants to grow a personal relationship with their pet! My husband and I also have our cat, Chloe- who is the center of our whole universe. Most of our days are spent spoiling her rotten. I always like to learn more about a dogs or cats personality before I know how I will care for them. I am willing to stick to any routine you may have planned for your furry babies. Making sure your pet vibes with me and is coping well with the temporary change is very important to me so I will follow any routines and instructions given (no matter how obscure) to help them through that.
