Send your pup to Camp Walden!

Pet care experience

Thanks for checking out my sitter profile! I've been watching pets across the DC area for nearly 8 years, which includes experience as a walker and housesitter. I'm a dependable animal lover who will make sure your pet is happy and comfortable even while their people are away. I live with my partner in a very dog-friendly house in Landover Hills. While I manage the Rover account, my partner Lou--who is a caring pet parent with animal experience that includes a stint at wolf sanctuary-- also will keep your pet(s) company. We have two pups: the elderly Walden, a pug who sleeps 90% of the day, and Drax, an active mutt who enjoys playing with friends new and old in our yard but also cuddling up for evening snuggles. We have two cats who are friendly with dogs but have access to a dog-free office if any issues arise (so far we've only had adorable introductions as dogs' first cat friends--many nose boops). The house is in a suburban area and has a fenced in, maintained yard where your pup can happily spend their days playing with Drax, rolling in the grass, and sniffing around. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!

Izzy did a wonderful job taking care of my dog Ollie while we were away. It was the longest we'd ever boarded him for, and Izzy made us feel assured that he was getting great care and attention while we were away. We got lots of cute pictures and detailed updates about how Ollie was doing. Definitely made the experience much easier!!

We were so happy with Izzy’s care. They sent us daily updates about our pup and were particularly responsive when we had a few itinerary changes. Our dog is a big boxer mix and can be a bit of a trouble maker at times. Izzy knew how to handle him and seemed to understand the pack dynamics at play with the entire group he was dog sitting. We couldn’t be happier with our experience!

Izzy is amazing and clearly cares about animals! We were kept updated with photos during our Mina's stay. Drop off and pick up was easy. Izzy was also generous and flexible with our schedule. Will book again!

Information Izzy R. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know their preferences, any training you want me to ensure is consistent during their stay or care, and if there's anything I can avoid in order to make them comfortable. No breed preferences - I love them all!

A typical day

Pets visiting Camp Walden will have the whole house (minus the room for cats to have their own space) and backyard to enjoy. We’re happy to take walks around the neighborhood or venture to the local dog park if that’s something your pet would enjoy/expect. You can expect pictures of your dogs making friends, eating (only owner-approved) snacks, and sleeping soundly while here.

I work from home most days of the week; Lou works entirely from home. We often have guest animals in the house, so are used to a daily routine of breakfast and backyards romps after wake-up, multiple breaks throughout business hours, and plenty of play time and dinner in the evenings. We’re happy to incorporate your pet’s usual routine into ours to keep them comfy.
