“Over the past few weeks, Leonard and his family have taken great care of our dog, Cole. It's clear that Cole loves his time with Leonard's family because he is always happy to see Leonard and is eager to run inside when we drop him off. In addition, Leonard is extremely responsive and very accommodating of variations in drop-off and pick-up times. We would highly recommend Leonard and his family and will continue to entrust Cole to their care.”

“This couple did a wonderful job taking care of our energetic puppy! They let him play with one of the other dogs to get his zoomies out but separated him when needed when he started playing too much. We are very appreciative of the time and attention they gave him.”

About: I’ve been dog sitting for friends and strangers alike ever since I graduated and moved to DC in 2019! It all started because I had such a deep love for dogs, but was not yet ready to have one of my own. Nowadays, I share an adorable little mutt with my boyfriend, and we split the care for her fairly evenly. Because of this, if you’re interested in boarding your pet, they need to be friendly with other dogs; ours absolutely LOVES them. Otherwise, I am happy to pet sit at your residence. Additionally, I have experience with elderly dog care and will cater to whatever their needs are. I’m a full-time corporate girlie with a flexible, hybrid work schedule. I’m normally in the office 2-3 days/week, but can work from home the entire duration of your pet’s stay, if that is desired. I’m happy to work with you to create the exact level of care and attention you desire for your doggo. Your pet would have free rein of the house while we’re home and would be kept in a separate room/ crate than our dog when we’re away. We do have a yard, although it’s not fenced in, so we let our dog run around on a 50 ft leash in the backyard; we could do the same for your dog!


“Guy and his family are very friendly and treated our corgi Wylie with exceptional care! Their yard was perfect to get some playtime. We can’t wait to bring him back.”


“Yasmine was wonderful with our dog Penny - we booked daycare today as a test run for a longer boarding stay in December and it went SO WELL! Penny got along great with Yasmine and her sweet family, as well as her dog Daisy. Yasmine sent photos and kept us updated throughout her stay. We are so happy we found someone local who we can trust with our fur baby!”

With over a decade of experience in caring for both small and large dogs, I've dedicated my time to an NGO in Africa, assisting in the rescue of stray dogs.

We allow dogs on furniture or the bed, and they have the freedom to roam the house. Expect daily updates with photos and videos, and please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions at any time. Your peace of mind and your pups' comfort are our top priorities.

About: I have lovingly taken care of dogs & cats for over 30 years, both mine & those belonging to friends, family & neighbors. From an early age I learned that all animals need love and compassion, and this taught me to always responsibly care for our family & friends' pets. Since then my passion for animals has taken me on a career path as a global wildlife & nature conservationist & photographer. Any chance I get to walk, visit, play with, and care for a pet brings me immense joy. I know how hard it is to leave your pet for a trip or even just for the day to go to work, my commitment to you is that your pet will receive tons of attention, affection and exercise and you can feel 100% at ease. I am available day/evenings during the week and flexible throughout the day/night on weekends. I will make every effort to fit your schedule. I currently work from home, giving me plenty of time and a broad range of flexibility to visit, walk, and care for your pets. Hopefully your pooch can help me get some of my daily 13,000 steps in! I like to send daily updates and photos giving you peace of mind that your kitty or pooch are happy and taken care of, eliminating any worries you may have regarding your pet during your time away. I'm excited about the chance to meet you and your fur baby! When I visit your pet, I hold myself to the highest standard from the moment I enter your home and greet your pet, as if it was my own home and my own pet. I will strive to leave your home in the same, or better, condition than it was at the beginning of my visit or stay. Once I've followed all instructions provided by you (food, water, litter, toys, meds, etc.), your pet is going to get plenty of affection, playtime, and exercise to keep them fed, happy and well-rested until my next visit (or your return). Let me know your pet’s preferences! High energy dog? Let’s go for a long walk or a run! More of a lap dog? Let's read or watch a movie and I’ll make sure we get in some quality cuddle time. Maybe it’s that time of year and your fur baby is shedding everywhere - let me help with the brushing!

“Angelica is a wonderful sitter to my pup! She is understanding and caring towards my sweet Sienna. I love that I receive plenty of photos and updates throughout the day. She also asks plenty of questions in regards to care and always wants to make sure she’s doing what best for Sienna. So thankful to have found her!”
