Pet care experience

DC Native Realtor and Bookeeper by trade but dog and pet lover all the time! Marshall Heights homeowner for almost 2 decades. I adopted my pup Pepper from the Washington Humane Society immediately after purchasing my place, and was in love with my companion until he sadly transitioned last fall from old age…I love providing reassurance to pet parent via great care and lots of photos of their furry family members, making sure they well taken care of while you are away at work, day trip, or even vacation. I’ve worked for two local dog walking/pet sitting companies over the last decade. Currently, I have multiple furry clients who I have sitting for the last 12 years in the Capital Hill neighborhood but I am really aiming to provide this same level of pet care to the SE area of DC.

Clarice did a wonderful job with Roscoe. He connected with her easily on the meet and greet, where she asked and learned about his quirks and personality. She accepted a somewhat last-minute request, and she treated him well! Highly recommend her and hope to use her services again in the future!

Clarice is my go-to sitter. She took care of Pierre for 10 days while I was out of the country, ensuring he was happy, healthy, and truly upbeat upon my return. I highly recommend her.
