Information Alli M. would like to know about your pet

We have a family environment, so we would be sure to ask: - How is your dog around other dogs? - Have they had experience/interacted with kids before? - Is this the first time they have been away from you? - Do they have any special quirks or traits we should be aware of? We want to make sure that we cater to each and every dog we have in our home. Knowing as much as possible about them will help us make sure they feel safe and comfortable in our home.

A typical day

We have a fenced in yard potty breaks and playtime. We do enjoy walks around our neighborhood or to nearby parks as well. Our dogs love to play with other dogs! Of course, there will be plenty of treats too.

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Alli. . My family and I can't wait to have your pup in our home as an honorary member. My husband, sons, and I all have huge hearts for dogs of all breeds! We will need to do a meet and greet for first time stays. We had our late dog, Duke, for 6 years and he was a certified therapy dog. Our sweet Porter passed as well and now Otto -a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel has joined our family. Currently, I work from home during the week so I can provide lots of care and specialized attention for your dog while you are away. My goal is to provide a safe and loving family environment that local dog owners in my community can trust when they are in need. Our home offers plenty of great amenities for your pup too: a fenced-in yard, rooftop deck, and an enclosed patio. We have lots of experience pet-sitting for friends and neighbors. I do have experience caring for other types of animals and I love them dearly, but I'm definitely a dog person through and through. There are plenty of places that George and Porter loves to go around our home, the National Mall, Eastern Market, and the River Walk Trail are all within close proximity to our home.

Derby had an amazing time with Alli. Her space was perfect for dogs. A safe an friendly environment away from home is what everyone wants for their pet when they go out of town. Communicating with Alli was easy. We received picture updates and knew Derby was in good hands.

Alli is absolutely the best. She’s watched our dog several times and he loves her and her family. She’s easy to communicate with and we’ll definitely use her again. 10/10
