About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 10 years old - whether it be my own, my neighbors, or my roommates and friends. My late grandma LOVED animals, growing up we had ducks and rabbits and birds (oh my!) and she definitely made sure that type of love lived on through me. I love providing warm and welcoming environments for all, leading me to be extremely organized and detail oriented. I’m currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your furry friends! I’m available every day from 10 AM to 6 PM for walks and drop-ins, and can watch during the day my own home weekdays from 9 AM to 6 PM. I have an extremely clean, organized, warm and puppy-proofed house with Fillmore Park Trail right in my backyard, often taking my own dog for long walks on it! Long Branch Elementary School is also behind me, where I often take dogs to play on the fields there if they have anxiety in park spaces (bad experiences with other dogs). I frequently go to Shirlington dog park otherwise. If I am caring for your pet in your own home, I will tidy up the space as well if needed (I am a firm believer in respecting other peoples spaces and treating them better than my own).

“Thanks again so much. Glad he was good visitor.”

“Chang was wonderful in watching Mia, who immediately seemed at ease with her. Chang was able to get her to relax and eat some of her food and also treated Mia to a pup smoothie bowl that she enjoyed. We also appreciated Chang's prompt responses to our messages and all the pictures and updates she shared. We're glad we found Chang on short notice.”

“Jena was so wonderful with my dog Hazel! Hazel is a very nervous dog with separation anxiety and she made sure to keep me updated throughout the day with messages, pictures, and videos. She was very easy to coordinate with and we had a great initial meeting over zoom. Would be happy to have Jena watch Hazel any time!”

About: Hi, I’m Kira, a lifelong dog lover and recent dog parent! I offer dependable walks, daycare, and in-home sitting that keep your pets active, comfortable, and cared for like family. I believe every dog deserves personalized attention and plenty of playtime. You can count on clear communication, safe routines, and extra snuggles along the way. Whether it’s a quick walk or a cozy overnight stay, I’ll make sure your pup feels right at home. I’m available Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. for dog walks, whether your pup needs a quick potty break or a long, active stroll, I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise and love. On weekends, I offer walks by appointment and house sitting, giving your pet consistent care and comfort while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to let someone care for your dog, and I don’t take that lightly. Before any booking, I love doing a meet & greet to learn your dog’s routines, personality, and comfort needs, it helps me create a calm, consistent environment where they feel at home. I live in a cozy one-bedroom condo with no yard, but dogs get plenty of outdoor time through regular walks and potty breaks. I choose safe, quiet routes and tailor each walk to your pup’s energy and comfort level. My goal is always to make every dog feel safe, loved, and completely cared for, whether we’re out exploring or relaxing inside.

“Sara was wonderful! Rolo had a great day with her and came back happy and relaxed. We also loved the adorable photos she sent — it was great to see our little guy having such a good time. Highly recommend!”

“Kerstyn was very nice and patient with my quirky dog, and so was her dog Freya who provided all the entertainment! We will definitely be back”

“We had a great experience leaving our dog Otto to spend a day with Amina. She communicated very well and gave Otto the attention he needed. Otto also had the opportunity to enjoy the time with Snowy (Amina’s lovely dog). Thank you very much for the great care. Looking forward to have Otto spending more time with you soon.”

“Tali had the best day with Anya and her dog Scout! Tali was instantly so comfortable with the both of them. Anya kept me updated during the day and was very responsive and flexible. I got lots of pics and videos from her day. I felt completely at ease leaving my pup with her!”

“This is week 2 of puppy day care with Camilla and somehow I’m even happier with her! She treats my 3month old pup as her own and is so so flexible with my wacky work schedule. She feeds my pup lunch and takes him on walks around the block, to a dog park, normal parks etc! She has been a dream and I honestly can’t put into words how grateful I am of her and how amazing my experience with her has been. Can’t wait to keep having her take care of my growing pup!!🥰”

“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.”

“Archana was great with our dog, Jane! Communication was easy and she sent updates throughout the day. Jane, who is a rescue, was a little nervous and Archana did well to help ease her anxiety. We are very appreciative!!”

“Miryam treats our 9-week puppy well, playing with her patiently and taking her out for potty break every 2 hours. She sends us photos to keep us in the loop throughout the day. Highly recommend!”

“Luliia's house is the perfect place for dogs. She has a huge fully fenced in backyard with a double gate like you see in dog parks. I'm a paranoid pet parent, and I feel totally at ease leaving our two basset hounds there. They went for daycare, and I intend on having overnight stays for them there in the future. It was obvious that careful attention was paid to any breed specific needs and even to each dog's individual personalities. We got lots of photos and video of our dogs playing. They slept so long when I brought them back home.”

Nicole R.

“Michael always sends lots of photos and is very communicative. My dog always enjoys hanging out with him.”

“They were both so nice and super friendly! Sent me pictures to update and took my dog on multiple walks a day! Would recommend 10/10 and send Frodo back to them!”
