About: I am a trust worthy person, i have a Goldendoodle of my own, so i understand how important it is to find someone loving, dependable, and attentive to care for your pup. I have over seven years of pet-care experience through other platforms, as well as caring for dogs belonging to friends and neighbors. I earned more than 210 positive reviews, which we would be happy to provide. I am a cybersecurity engineer who works remotely, and my wife is an aerospace engineering student who has classes only three days per week. This means someone is home most of the time to provide plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, walks, and affection. I’ll care for your dog like part of my own family! Pet care fits perfectly into our routine. I work remotely as a cybersecurity engineer, and my wife is an aerospace engineering student who is away only three days per week. One or both of us are home most of the day, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, walks, playtime, cuddles, and companionship. I provide a clean, calm, and loving home where pets can feel safe and comfortable. Since I work remotely, your pet will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of supervision, attention, and affection. I have a friendly Goldendoodle who enjoys having company, and i introduce all dogs slowly and supervise their interactions.i follow each pet’s usual feeding, walking, sleeping, and medication routine and provide regular photo and video updates.

“great cat sitter! Appreciate Joaquin for making a few changes to schedule. super kind and reliable!”

About: Hello! I'm Valentina! I have experience caring for pets of different ages and needs, including my 10 year old cat and my sister’s 4 year old dog. Most recently, I cared for a Giant Schnauzer puppy right through his crazy growth spurt, from the day he came home at 3 months old all the way until he was 7 months old! Working with a high energy, big pup takes a lot of patience, consistency, and structure, so I kept him on a solid daily routine with twice a day walks to burn off that puppy energy and practice good leash manners. I’m also a very active person and genuinely enjoy being outdoors, walking, and staying on the move, so I love being able to bring that energy and enthusiasm into caring for pets. I have a flexible schedule and I’m generally available for walks and drop-in visits in the morning from 7:30 to 9:30 AM and in the afternoon from 3:30 to 5:30 PM. I’m happy to be flexible and work around your pet’s routine whenever possible. A little advance notice is always appreciated so I can plan my day and make sure I can give your pup the time, care, and attention they deserve. I love caring for pets in their own homes, where they can stay comfortable and stick to their familiar routine. I find that pets tend to feel more relaxed and at ease in their own space, especially when their owners are away. I’m happy to follow their normal routine, whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, or any special instructions, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away.

“Nina came to the house and Thomas loved her. She provided videos and photos twice a day, and in each video Thomas was very vocal, which he is when talking to people he loves. When we got back the litter box was clean, the food bowls were clean, and it was obvious Thomas had been given all his medicine and the mail was piled on the table by name. Nina kept the key in case we were held up at the airport (there was a storm predicted) and was ready to come again if we should be delayed. I was very happy with her services and would definitely ask her to Thomas-sit again. We are both very happy.”

About: I had my dog from 5 months to 16 years 🤎 been through every stage of life with her. Your dog will be treated just like mine! Animals have a special place in my heart 😊 I work from home everyday so I am pretty much available anytime of the day! Depending on schedule and availability, Saturday and Sunday may be available. I have extra rooms in my house if your dog or cat needs to stay! I have my own cat who is friendly and chill

“Sierra was AMAZING!!! I was so anxious to leave my cats while I went away for vacation, but Sierra gave me such a peace of mind. I was able to actually relax and enjoy my vacation instead of worrying the whole time :) Sierra gave me updates and pictures of my cats when she visited which was greatly appreciated. Highly recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs!”

Saima H.

“Anne is extremely trustworthy and has been taking care of my pets for years. In addition to basic care, she plays with them if time allows, medicates as needed, and lets me know if she observes any unusual behavior. I'm very comfortable with my pets in her care!”

About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs and children. While living in Colorado, I worked as a dog walker and nanny for families with large dogs and young children. Most of the dogs I cared for were medium to large breeds, and my experience ranges from puppies to senior dogs. Since moving to the DC area, I have continued working with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I also live with a cat at home, so I am comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available during weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting visits. At this time I am not able to host pets in my home, but I have reliable transportation and am happy to travel for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I have a flexible schedule during the week and on weekends, allowing me to accommodate consistent routines as well as last-minute or varying pet care needs. At this time I do not have the space to accommodate pets in my house, but I have transportation to do drop-ins and house calls.

“Repeat customer because Emma is amazing and takes such great care of our kitty. Always communicates and sends updates and photos. So grateful! Thank you Emma!”

About: I’ve always had a love for animals and have owned dogs in the past, so I understand the different stages of a dog’s life, from puppyhood to their senior years. I know that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I believe in giving them the patience, attention, and care they deserve. As a cat mom of three, I also have plenty of experience caring for pets with different temperaments and grooming needs. Whether your pup needs walks, playtime, meals, or extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll treat your fur baby like my own! I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available for pet care throughout the day. I’m able to provide plenty of attention, check-ins, and companionship for your pets while you’re away. I’m also flexible with scheduling and happy to work with you to find a routine that best fits your pet’s needs. I always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I follow their usual routines for feeding, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, and any other specific care they need. Since I work remotely, I have a flexible schedule and can provide plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur babies, so I make sure to follow all care instructions, respect your home, and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away!

“Ana was fantastic! I will absolutely use her again for my two feline furbabies. I know all cat owners say their cats are particular but mine definitely are and Ana followed all the instructions I gave her. Her photos and notes were so helpful while I was gone. My cats were clearly comfortable with her right away which made being away easier. Thanks so much, Ana!”

“Ni is amazing and super thorough with all the visits! She sent us plenty of pictures, including pictures of tasks being completed so you get a peace of mind. She is very patient and so good with all of them, our cats loved her, including our skittish girl. We have 3 cats and some of the instructions are not as straightforward but Ni followed them perfectly! Will definitely book her again for our future trips ☺️”

“Maya was reliable, sent photos of Minnie who looked very content. Should the need arise, I wouldn't hesitate to have Maya stay at my home.”

About: I grew up with all sorts of animals and I've been petsitting for cats and dogs the past 6 years. I love taking care of pets and I'm dedicated to providing the best care possible! I'm working part time during the week so I'm available to house sit/dog walk/petsit full-time during the weekend, and most of the time during the week! :) I have stayed at clients homes in order to care for dogs and cats or visited them multiple times a day, depending on the owners preferences. I have experience dog-walking, scooping litter boxes, administering medication, and grooming. I make sure to listen to whatever the owner needs and follow directions exactly!

About: I’ve had experience with both dogs and cats since I was a toddler! My family has always had Sheltie dogs, and I have always had cats of my own! I have experience as a foster parent to cats and kittens of all sizes. My cat Tater Tot is a foster fail! I also have experience dog and cat sitting for friends over the years, including in home care, dog walking, senior dog care, and puppy care as I raised my own dog, Honey, from just a few months old! I am currently in the midst of starting my own pastry business, so I am extremely flexible as I work through the paperwork and business planning! I am completely flexible in my schedule, and am available any day of the week any time as my work is a currently remote and flexible! I currently do not offer care in my home, but I am very comfortable doing pet care in clients homes. My most recent dog-sitting client had three dogs of various ages and temperaments, and I was comfortable entering the home, walking and spending time with them, feeding and giving the elderly dog medication, then crating the two others! As a pet parent, I know how important it is to spend quality time and play time with pets while they are missing their family!

“Jie is so amazing! She watched my cats for an overnight stay and she was so accommodating. She has a perfect set up and space for them. Definitely will rebook with her!”

About: Hi there! If you’re looking for a cozy, safe, and super loving environment for your furry best friend, you’ve definitely found the right place. I’ve been surrounded by paws and purrs my whole life. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages—from tiny, energetic 1-month-old babies to sweet, 15-year-old seniors who just want a quiet place to snuggle. My wife, our friends, and I are all huge animal lovers, so your pet will get endless cuddles, belly rubs, and attention here! I'd love to help you with boarding, drop-in visits, and dog walking. For boarding, we have an awesome setup in McLean: a comfy 1-bedroom place with a fully fenced backyard. It’s absolutely perfect for safe, off-leash zoomies and relaxing in the sun! We also have a house in Vienna, which is home to our three chill, 2-year-old American Shorthair cats. As a devoted pet dad myself, I know exactly how hard it is to leave your babies behind. That’s why I treat every pet exactly like my own. I pay close attention to healthy diets, love setting up fun enrichment (I even grow fresh cat grass!), taking the pups on nice long walks, and I don't mind giving them a bath if they get a little messy from playing. I promise to send you lots of cute photo updates so you can relax knowing they're having a great time. I can't wait to meet you and your pets! Pet care is a seamless part of our daily routine! My wife works fully remote, meaning someone is almost always home to provide round-the-clock love and attention. I work a hybrid schedule and only go into the office two days a week. By teaming up, we guarantee your pet gets consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of midday cuddles. You will never have to worry about your furry family member being left alone for long stretches—they will always have a loving human companion nearby to play with or snuggle next to! For dogs, our McLean location features a fully fenced backyard, providing a perfectly secure space for off-leash zoomies and safe outdoor play. For cats staying at our Vienna home, we offer flexible setups: a social 'Youth Hostel' vibe with our three friendly resident cats, or a quiet 'Private Suite' for pets who need their own peaceful space. Because our own cats are notorious little thieves who are always trying to sneak a bite of our bread and human food, we’ve become experts at pet-proofing! We maintain strict habits to keep our entire home meticulously clean, organized, and free of any accessible hazards. You can rest assured that our whole house is a 100% pet-friendly and secure environment. We strictly follow your feeding and medication guidelines, always double-check that gates and doors are secure, and tailor our care to your pet's needs. Whether that means taking dogs for long, stimulating walks, setting up engaging enrichment activities, or giving them a gentle bath after a messy play session, your pet is in safe and loving hands!
