Pet care experience

Home full-time Capitol hill sitter

Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover who has had the joy of fostering many wonderful pups over the years. I’ve also had a dog of my own, so I understand the importance of routine, attention, and reliable care. I work from home during the week, so your dog will have plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. My home is dog-friendly, with a secure balcony that offers some fun street activity for curious pups, a variety of toys, and plenty of cozy spots for lounging and relaxing. I’m also right next to a small green space that’s perfect for fresh air, sniffing around, and easy outdoor breaks throughout the day. I’d love to care for your dog while you’re away and provide you with peace of mind knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for. As a landscape architect, I primarily work from home, though I occasionally step into the office for short periods. My office is dog friendly so depending on your preferences and your dog’s comfort level your pup could enjoy socializing or a quieter, relaxed environment. I’m happy to tailor their stay to what suits them best. My goal is to provide the highest level of care, love, and attention, whether that means long walks, playtime, or simply curling up on the couch together.

Judy did a great job with my pup! She was very good at communicating and keeping me updated on how things were going. I would definitely book her again!

Judy was great with Bowie! He settled in quickly, was comfortable throughout his stay, and I really appreciated the regular updates and photos. It was clear he was well cared for, and he came home happy and relaxed. I’d definitely book with Judy again.

My dog had a nice time at Judy's place and seemed to really enjoy all the sights and sounds from the balcony :)

Schedule

Working from home allows me to spend plenty of quality time with the pups; whether that’s going on walks, playing games like hide-and-seek or fetch, getting outside to enjoy the neighborhood, or relaxing together on the couch. During warmer days, I like to make puppy friendly “popsicles” for a fun and cooling treat on the balcony, so please let me know if your pup has any food allergies or dietary restrictions.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large balcony your pup is free to enjoy to watch pedestrians or just soak in the sun but if the weather isn’t great also have lots of windows that can be entertaining. I also have a variety of Pup toys

A typical day

Typically in the morning we take a short walk as well as during the lunch hour but in the afternoon and or evening there are lots of good parks in the area that I enjoy walking to and hanging out at.
