Ready to care for your furbaby! 💕

Pet care experience

I've grown up around dogs and know exactly how to handle them. My aunt adopted six large dogs from the shelter and I went over to take care of them whenever she needed a free weekend. Throughout college, I would dogsit for friends and other acquaintances in the area. I'm more than qualified and prepared to take care of your beloved pup; trust me! (Note: I currently have cats as I do not believe my living situation can adequately care for a big dog like the one I want! But I am more than qualified to take care of your dogs :) Plus it'd tide me over until I can get a doggo of my own!!)

Donna was a phenomenal dog sitter! She has been watching my 2 dogs (minature poodle and yorkie) for a few months after she moved to the Pentagon City area. My dogs adore her to bits! She is so sweet with them and updates me throughout the day with photos which I appreciate SO much. I will keep using her services in the future; she is so responsive and gives my dogs plenty of attention! Definitely recommend her for house-sitting.

Donna was great and took wonderful care of my cat. She took the time to snuggle with her on each visit which my cat LOVES.

Donna did a great job watching our dogs for the night. She sent many photos throughout the night of our dogs and we were very satisfied with her service.

Safety, trust & environment

I trust that my client will provide adequate care instructions before I head over to take care of their pup for the night! I am more than qualified to take care of your pet, but it helps knowing if they have a favorite toy and what their ideal bedtime routine is. If I'm walking your dog, I will 100% curb your dog. I am a conscientious dog walker first and a dog lover second! If I am watching over/feeding your cat, I will give them the proper space so they feel comfortable with a stranger in the house. I will give them proper mental and physical stimulation NOT by chasing them around the house but rather through playing with them with owner-provided toys.

Information Donna X. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet needs some special care! Are they particularly worried/anxious when they’re alone? Do they have special habits when meeting new people that I need to be aware of? Do they have any allergies that I should be mindful of?

A typical day

Aside from the routine care (food, water, walks), I’ll be sure to give your pet plenty of mental stimulation by playing games! Additionally, a long cuddle never hurts (unless they don’t like to be touched, in which case I’ll give them their space!)
