Responsible Caring sitter

Pet care experience

I send photos and fun messages/updates each day (or more if you'd like). I am comfortable caring for cats and dogs. I don't currently have my own pet - my cat Chloe lived to 18! I like to be active, so will take your dog on long walks or tire them out as a running buddy. If they are up for a short car ride, I love taking dogs to the Arboretum. Happy to spoil your kitty with chin scratches and entertain them with their favorite toy. Or just have them tolerate my presence while I feed/clean litter, they call the shots! I run, bike and have a car.

Doreen is fantastic! She is so good with our pup Crusty and takes him on really nice walks. Always have peace of mind when he's staying with Doreen. 👍

Doreen was fantastic with our sweet pup Crusty! Very communicative, brought him on fun walks in the Arboretum and the trail near her house, and sent lots of pictures and updates. Highly recommend!

Doreen took great care of my pup and sent daily updates! She was also flexible enough to work around my travel plans, which I sincerely appreciated!

Safety, trust & environment

I host pets in my home in Kingman Park. I'm close to RFK and trails along the Anacostia to take your pup out for a walk or run. For Check-ins and housesitting at client homes, I prefer meet & greets beforehand so that I can meet your pet and get the lay of the land (keys, any security systems, etc).

Information Doreen C. would like to know about your pet

It is helpful for me to know if there are any special needs or behaviors by your pet. This will put us both at ease.

A typical day

For dogs, walks around the neighborhood, or longer destinations if they are up for it. For dogs and cats, if you have toys, I will play with them to ensure they get enough exercise and stimulation. For shy a dog/kitty, I take my time upon arrival, to let them get used to my presence.
