About: For over seven years, I volunteered with a rescue group, training and caring for dogs with behavioral issues and special needs. (Not to mention plenty of well-adjusted, healthy pups!) As the parent of a senior dog myself, I empathize with all of the emotions and apprehension that can occur (on both sides!) when pets are apart from their people, I understand how important it is to know your pets' caretaker is not only capable of providing the logistical support to keep your pet healthy while you are away, but that they genuinely care about your pet and their experience. In caring for your pet, I aim to provide you with the peace of mind that the furry piece of your heart you couldn't take with you is having a great time while you are away from home. I will learn your pets' routines and send regular updates to let you know how they are doing during your absence. I understand that animals are individuals, and what works for one dog/cat/other may not work for another. I have experience working with pets of a wide array of ages, energy levels, and medical needs, have experience managing intricate feeding and medication schedules, and have some experience administering (cat) insulin injections. If you have any questions, please ask away! As far as what I request from clients: If I will be staying in your home, clean bedding/towels are appreciated. Additionally, i am not likely to eat food you’ve left behind, so if something in your refrigerator or on your counter will expire before you return, you may wish to dispose of it before leaving. My job is currently remote as of the time I am writing this; so my care schedule for overnight stays can be somewhat flexible as long as you have a strong, secure WiFi. Additionally, I will need to stop home 1-2 times during the day most days to care for my own senior dog while their other parent is at work. This has not and should not cause a disruption for our stay, especially if you are located in (or within a short bus ride to/from) Capitol Hill or the Central District. I tend to be more of a night owl than an early bird. For walks and drop-in visits outside of overnight stays, I am generally available after 6:30pm on weekdays and after 1:30pm on weekends. Nobody knows your pets better than you, so I will follow your care instructions and take in anything else you think I should know about your best bud(s) during our time together.

About: I’ve been surrounded by pets my entire life—growing up with dogs taught me how to love and care for animals from a young age. My husband and I shared our lives with one sweet poodle and two adorable cats. Our beloved poodle lived to be 18 years old before passing in 2023, and now our home is filled with the playful energy of our two cats. While I’ve always been a dog person at heart, my cats have completely won me over and turned me into a true cat lover too! With years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I understand their unique needs and personalities—and I treat every pet like family. As a self-employed professional with a very flexible schedule, I’m able to give plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. I mostly work from home and am around during the day for walks, playtime, feedings, and companionship. I typically go to the office for appointments 2–3 times a week, but my schedule is flexible enough that I can easily plan around your pet’s needs to ensure they’re well cared for and comfortable. I live in a cozy townhouse (about 900 sq ft) with my two friendly and well-behaved cats. It’s a peaceful and pet-friendly neighborhood that’s great for dog walks, with quiet streets and plenty of green space nearby. My home is clean, safe, and a calm environment where your pet can feel comfortable and cared for.

“Lyric has been wonderful with our dogs! She’s very quick to respond to messages and very easy to work with. She takes lots of photos and our dogs we pooped after she walked them!”

“Craig is a lovely and conscientious person who has a deep love for dogs. He’s been great for our skittish Milo who is just now emerging from pandemic isolation. Craig walks Milo every day and gives him the space needed to build trust. We recommend Craig without reservation.”


“Our Scout looooooves Lynn so much than when she sees her walking up our front steps she lets out a happy squeal, and is always very fulfilled when she gets home from walks. Lynn is very responsive and communicative, and attentive to any notes or instructions we provide.”


“Lisa has been amazing with our pups. She understood and learned our pups little quirks quickly and adopted to their behaviors and habits during walk very quickly. She has been very punctual and reliable. One of our dogs is a senior dog and she understands and caters to her needs but also very flexible with the changes in our dogs. I would highly recommend her to anyone who loves their dogs like their own children. It truly felt like I left my dog in good hands!”


About: Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to look after their furry companions for over a decade! From my sassy senior Bernese Mountain Dog, to a Pitbull who likes to pull, to a Golden Retriever puppy with a seizure disorder, to a very talkative Malamute mix, I pride myself in my ability to get along with dogs of all ages, sized, and level of need. I am very comfortable walking large and giant breeds, caring for senior dogs, and watching wiggly puppies! I am a self-employed artist with a very flexible schedule, so I can dedicate as much time as your pet needs for me to keep them company. I always follow whatever household rules and pet care guidelines are set for me by the pet owners. I try to stay as true to your pet’s regular routines as possible so that their whole world isn’t thrown off too much! Meal times and walks are whenever YOU set them, if they’re not allowed on the furniture with you then they’re not allowed on the furniture with me, and if your dog/cat always sleeps on the bed with you, then they’re can sleep on the bed with me :)

“Alexis took great care of my dogs during the walk! She was great adapting to all their quirks and preferences. Communication was amazing and the photos let me know how happy they were during their walk. 100% recommend Alexis to care for your pets!!”


“Thank you, Faeden for being available last minutes when other plans fell through! Faeden seems like a real dog person and I could tell from photos that my dog, Remi, enjoyed their time together.”

Michelle & Kuanyun C.
“My wife and I recently hired her to take care of our senior dog JJ, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we met her, we could tell she was not only responsible but also genuinely passionate about animals. She took the time to get to know our dog, his routine, and his quirks, which made us feel completely at ease leaving him in her care. Michelle sent us regular updates—photos and videos—that kept us in the loop and reassured us that our dog was in good hands. We could tell he was enjoying his time with her, and that peace of mind was invaluable. It’s clear Michelle goes above and beyond to ensure pets are comfortable, safe, and happy. We wholeheartedly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional dog sitter. We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”
