Active Sitters Working from Home

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Jennifer! I’ve loved animals ever since I was little, and have always had a furry, fishy, or feathered friend. My husband and I have been pet-sitting for our friends since our senior dog passed away, and although we’re not quite ready to adopt again, we’d love more consistent dog and cat companionship!

10/10 stay!!! I always know my dog is in good hands. Jennifer and Austin need a “five timers” jacket for JJ at this point!

Jennifer and Austin were so kind and provided lots of pictures of my pup. They made a weekend away so easy, as we knew he was well taken care of. Highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

We own our home a short walk from Logan Circle; it's a three-level row house, and has a small front fenced area. We live near two dog parks (if that’s your pup’s jam) and enjoy going on long walks and runs exploring the city. For your pup's safety, we will keep them 100% on-leash during outings (aside from enclosed dog parks.) Although we only book one client at a time, we're happy to host siblings if they live together and get along. Your fur baby will be welcome to lounge on our couch, and snuggle in our bed. We have a medium-sized crate, but if your pup is on the larger size and uses one, be sure to pack theirs! Feel free to bring any favorite items that would make your pet most comfortable while they're with us. We already have food and water bowls, a large plush dog bed, and toys that they are welcome to play with while they're here.

Information Jennifer & Austin A. would like to know about your pet

Let us know if your pet needs any special care ahead of time! I'd love to know their preferences, likes, dislikes, fears, etc. so they have the most comfortable time with us! Transparency is key - letting us know your pet's quirks will help us help them have a good time! Some things that are helpful for us to know include if your pet is housetrained, has any behavioral issues, leash reactivity, etc. (We have experience with all of the above!)

A typical day

My husband and I are runners, so we're happy to take your pup on a run, if they'd enjoy it! We live in the heart of Shaw, so there are lots of fun places close by to hit up a dog park, walk to Rock Creek Park, or take a jaunt to the National Mall.
