Pet care experience

all dogs are good dogs

Dog Walker – Pet Sitter – Pet Boarding Services available for pets in the Navy Yard area. I have a flexible schedule and live near the several parks and open spaces.

I had a beautiful German Shepherd and currently have a sweet yorkie. 🐾Please note: For any house sitting requests, I’ll be bringing my sweet yorkie along.

Doggy Day Care • Jul 27, 2026

Katie helped me out when another sitter canceled last minute. She was super responsive and easy to communicate with and took great care of my anxious dog

Katie did a great job watching my senior dog for daycare. She sent pictures and updates and was sure she was comfortable in her home!

Boarding • May 13, 2026

Katie did an amazing job of taking care of Charlie. She sent lots of photos and was so helpful in watching Charlie for an extra night when our plans changed. Would definitely be happy to have Charlie hang out with Katie again 🤗🤗

Katie is a caring and kind woman who loves dogs. She was so gentle and loving with my cavalier. She responds quickly, communicates clearly and follows all instructions. She also sent lots of pictures and gave daily updates. I highly recommend her.

All dogs are welcome. If a dog isn’t getting along well with others I’ll keep them separate. I’m comfortable dogs their giving medication if needed.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
