Will treat your pup/cat as my own!

Pet care experience

I'm a recent Brown University masters graduate, now living and working in DC. I have many years of petsitting experience, and grew up with many family pets. My father is a professional dog trainer and handler, and I learned how to properly care for dogs from a young age. My condo in DC is well-equipped to board dogs, with ample open space, natural light and air flow, and my building has green space. I know how to properly respect a dog's space, entering cautiously and quietly, letting them sniff my hand before petting or putting on a leash, etc. I'm always excited to meet new pets, and I I'll certainly treat your pup/cat as if they were my own! Feel free to contact me with any questions :-)

Henry was great with our dog! She was clearly very attached to him after her stay. We have already recommended him to our friends and hope to work with him again in the future.

Henery was hands down the best pet sitter we've ever used. We needed a sitter on SUPER short notice (like less than two days) and Henry saved the day. I was nervous dropping my dog off with a stranger in a place she'd never been before but Henry quickly put my mind at ease when he sent a picture of her with the biggest goofy smile just minutes after we left. He obviously made her feel right at home in his beautiful apartment. He was always very quick to reply to messages and I loved all the sweet updates and pics he sent. Our dog has a lot of energy but he was great and very patient with her. When we came to pick her up she seemed genuinely sad to leave him. I'd absolutely recommend Henry to anyone. We'll definitely be using him again in the future.

Henry & Kishon bonded very well. They went on long walks to and through RockCreek Park. Henry kept me informed on Kishon’s well-being & sent picture updates regularly. Our family was so excited that Kishon was in great hands and met a new friend. We were beyond comfortable with Henry caring for our fur baby boy. Looking forward to booking again in the near future. Already have another tentative date lined up with Henry. Henry was absolutely wonderful and we can’t wait to book again. Thank you so much for all your help. We truly appreciate you.

It would be helpful to know of any triggers, fears, and allergies. Where does your dog prefer to sleep? How are they on leashes and around other dogs?

A typical day

There's a green space at my building where we will enjoy regular potty breaks and sniffing! We will walk along quiet roads in Petworth and get some fresh air at Rock Creek Park. At home, there's ample space to walk around, plenty of natural light and big windows to look outside and enjoy fresh air, and all-natural, handmade treats if the dog's owner allows. We can play with balls, toys, and not be restricted when inside.
