Pet care experience
YOUR DOG'S HOME AWAY FROM HOME Welcome to DC: District of Canine! Let me introduce myself. I love all dogs, big and small, but prefer small to medium ones. However, I will make an exception for full-size Greyhounds just because I can't resist the breed. I've been a dog owner for over 10 years. My gang consists of 2 whippets and an Italian Greyhound. We all like snuggling on the couch, going to a park, meeting new friends and playing. I've been boarding friends' dogs for awhile and finally decided to make myself known to other local pets. I am home full time, so every dog gets my full attention :-) My inspiration is not a kennel or boarding facility but a deluxe dog hotel in the center of Adams Morgan--YOUR DOG'S HOME AWAY FROM HOME. My loft has a garden which is great for going out to potty in bad weather. In good weather, we use it for hanging out. We also have 3 dog parks and the Meridian park within the walking distance. Come meet us, play and stay with us! You can follow us on Instagram @districtofcanine P.S. All dogs are allowed on furniture in my hotel!
Reviews
My dog enjoyed her stay at Irina’s!
Irina was great and accommodating. The dogs seemed like they had a great time!
Irina was great and kept us posted with our dog’s daily ins and outs. Our pet was very happy there playing and interacting with other dogs. I would definitely leave him with Irina again.
Irina did a wonderful job caring for my new 5-month-old puppy, Otter. She was punctual, responsive, and provided great updates during his day care stay. I greatly appreciated her taking him in last-minute. Otter had a blast playing with her other pups. Thank you, Irina!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced yard with an artificial grass spot for dogs to go potty. My own dogs are very elderly and mostly sleep. There is also an emergency potty for when a need strikes. Certain areas of my home (like my bedroom and kitchen) are off limits and are blocked off. I feed dogs separately so there is no stealing food!
Home
Information Irina S. would like to know about your pet
I always ask new dogs to come in for a very short sniff and greet meeting to make sure he/she feels comfortable in my house. I need vet’s contacts and information about Allergies, Fears and dislikes and favorite things to do.
A typical day

Availability
I am home full time so your pup is always supervised. Usually, they have breakfast around 9am, then play, then take a nap. We go out at 12pm and have a snack of apple, pear, banana pieces and have another nap. Second potty break is at 3pm. Daycare usually goes home around 6pm. I post multiple times at day on Instagram @districtofcanine
