Your Pet’s New Best Friend

Hi my name is David! I’ve always loved all animals, growing up with a chow-lab I have experience caring for small and bigger dogs. My chow-lab is in heaven and I miss him so much, so I treat all animals as if they are my own and give them all of my love and attention!

Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize personalized care for every pet, paying close attention to their communication style, comfort level, and preferences during walks, meals, and playtime. My flexible schedule allows me to cater to their needs and keep their routine consistent. Now based in Washington, DC, I’m near several parks and walkable neighborhoods, which makes it easy to provide enjoyable, safe, and engaging walks throughout the day.

David’s been a fantastic house sitter for our excited pitt mix! He’s communicative, punctual, and reliable and knows our dog’s quirks.

Outstanding. David not only followed the regime for our dogs, they had a WONDERFUL time with him. Never have we ever returned from a vacation with them so content and happy. We are incredibly grateful.

David did an amazing job house-sitting for our older pittie mix. He’s communicative and thorough, responsible, and left our home immaculate. David’s clearly a dog lover and made our pup feel comfortable while we were away!

David was really lovely. It was my first experience using a house sitter instead of boarding as I had always felt a bit uneasy about it, but David was very reassuring and put me at ease. He took great care of my dog while I was gone and she seemed to have really liked him; the first night I came home, she went to the guest room where he had stayed instead of my room and was sniffing and looking around like she was looking for him. I would definitely recommend him for anyone!

David was an excellent choice to stay with our elderly dog while we were away. He was on time for everything. Kimi took to him right away. He gave Kimi 2 medicines per day as well as playing with her to keep her active. He stayed at our home and took care of everything while we were away and we're very pleased. We'll hire David again when we need care for Kimi.

Schedule

I have over 10 years of experience walking, feeding, and house sitting dogs and cats. I recently graduated from the University of Virginia and am now based in the DC area. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide reliable, attentive care and adjust to your pet’s routine. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks, drop ins, and overnight care. Whether your pet needs exercise, feeding, playtime, medication reminders, or just extra love while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.
