Your Dog Deserves a Vacation Too!
Pet care experience
We have taken care of dogs most of our adult lives. We go on several walks a day with our own dog, Axl. We love adventures on the weekends with trips to DC and Virginia state parks. We greatly enjoy exploring the DMV area. We have a dog and enjoy being dog owners! Gary works at home full-time so he is always at home. I work at home one to two days a week. We have a fenced in backyard, in a neighborhood that’s terrific for dog walking. There are parks nearby too. We are not smokers and there are no children in the house. WE DO REQUIRE A MEET AND GREET so we will know that you, your dog and our own dog, Axl, are comfortable with the arrangement. With that being said, if you need a quick booking, we are not the sitters for you.
Reviews
Best Rover experience thus far. Highly recommend.
Our dog, Pepper, had a great time with Molly, Gary and Axl! Pepper and Axl spent the weekend playing in the backyard and are best buds now. I loved getting photo and video updates while I was away and could tell that Pepper was very well cared for! She came home tired and happy. We’ll definitely look to book with Molly and Gary again in the future!
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Molly, Gary and their pup Axl. Not only did they provide excellent communication (and the cutest pictures) but they took exceptional care of Buster! He can’t always be the easiest but they were incredibly respectful of his boundaries and therefore I (and Buster) are so thankful! Will certainly love to leave Buster with them in the future!
Molly and Gary did a fantastic job taking care of our dog. They provided plenty of updates and spoil our dog with attention and mini adventures. Couldn’t be happier with them.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
We have a fenced in backyard, so there is no issue about a dog getting out. Our dog, Axl, is allowed to sit on all furniture, but does not sleep in our beds. Gary works from home each day, so there is always someone present in the house. I work from home 1-2 days a week, so on those days, two people are home. We want to make sure that all dogs and owners are comfortable with us and our home. That is why we require a meet and greet before each booked visit for new dogs.
Home
Information Molly & Gary H. would like to know about your pet
The more information about a dog, the better. What are his/her eating habits? Sleeping patterns? Fears and how to calm the dog. Pooping schedule. How the dog responds to other animals it might encounter on walks (cats, rabbits, squirrels)? If the dog has separation anxiety or is a loner.
A typical day
Axl is walked three times a day, for about 30-45 minutes each. We take him to parks to play fetch, and often do it in our backyard which is big enough for him to run.
Services
Molly & Gary can host
Availability
We walk our own dog Axl 3-4 times a day, so your dog would be welcome to walk each time, or less if desired. We also love going to the park or on a weekend adventure. With your permission, we would take your dog along with us.
