I am a four year DC resident of Capitol Hill. Flexible work from home schedule, so I am available to care, nurture, and walk your dog as needed while they are staying in my home. I live in a cozy basement apartment with my girlfriend Kristen, a fellow dog lover and pamperer. We have a small fenced in front yard which is perfect for people and dog watching, chilling on the stoop, and quick potty breaks. We are located near 10th and F, which is a quick jaunt from Lincoln Park, Stanton Park, the National Mall, and the Kingsman Dog Park. A little about me - I'm a lover of the outdoors - hiking, fly fishing, backpacking and moved to DC 4 years ago for work. I have owned and worked with dogs my whole life. I have experience professionally dog walking and pet sitting in DC, Montana, and Vermont. Last year I lost my 8 year old Alaskan Malamute, Willow, to cancer. Before her passing we explored every street, dog and regular park around DC and Capitol Hill. Collectively we loved the dog park, long walks around Capitol Hill, and sitting in front of the house watching people pass by. As life works out, Kristen and I adopted a new little Malamute, Fera in the early spring, and she's the best little urban wolfie on in the Atlas District. Happy, kind, loves to play and explore and stops and sniffs every person, bird and puppy she greets. As corny as it is, life is truly better with a dog. I adore the companionship that a doggo brings, and your canine will be welcomed into our home, with open paws, and ready for a Capitol Hill urban adventure.
