With over 20 years of hands-on pet care experience, I provide compassionate, knowledgeable care tailored to each pet's unique needs. My experience includes everything from training and caring for energetic puppies to providing gentle support for senior pets and attentive care for animals with medical needs or illnesses.

Whether your pet needs playtime, patience, medication, or extra TLC, you can count on me to provide dependable, experienced care that gives you peace of mind.

Perry is the best! She sends videos and pictures so you can love on your baby from afar! Our dog had the best time with her and we know she was well taken care of and loved! We will definitely be using her again!

Perry is a lovely dog sitter that went out of her way to help a single guy like me, take care of my dog. She helped with transportation and was always available and responsive. Ive used Rover for years and she is top of the line in my book. If you are a single guy like that travels alot, to take care of your Dog, Perry is the perfect person in North VA.

She's very good and helpful, and my dog felt comfortable with her. Plus, she's quick and punctual. Thank you so much, Perry.

From our first meeting with Perry, we knew our beloved dog and cat were in great hands. Perry was extremely sweet, gentle and thorough caring for our senior dog and spent time getting to know our shy kitty, Eddie. Perry’s communication is excellent. She sent us lots of pictures and videos. We were able to relax and enjoy ourselves knowing our dog and cat were not just walked and fed, but loved on. Our home was kept tidy as well. She is definitely on our favorites list!

Perry went above and beyond to meet our dog's needs and did her best to accomodate our schedule. Highly responsive, lots of updates with pictures and videos; we knew Ralphie was having a great time. So glad we met Perry, she'll be our first call next time we need dogsitting! Highly recommend.

Schedule

I currently work 12 hour shifts at the hospital from 7am to 7pm only 3 days a week. These days are typically Sunday-Tuesday as I make my own schedule. With having four days off, I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I can board any time during the week, especially with my weekends being open.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your furry family member can feel at ease. My apartment community features a secure dog park, plenty of sidewalks for daily walks, and beautiful natural areas for safe exploration and exercise. Whether your dog enjoys playtime or leisurely walks, they'll have plenty of opportunities to stay active. I also have a friendly, well-socialized cat who has been around dogs for most of his life and is comfortable sharing his space with respectful canine guests. I always introduce pets thoughtfully and monitor interactions to help ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect your pet's established routine and environment. I'll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special requests, so your pet receives consistent, loving care while you're away.

Pets

A typical day

Every pet is unique, so I tailor each day to their personality, energy level, and routine. My goal is to make them feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you're away. For dogs, our day may include walks through the neighborhood, playtime at the dog park (with your permission), games of fetch or tug, enrichment activities, and plenty of cuddle breaks. I make sure they get the exercise, mental stimulation, and attention they need. For cats, I spend quality one-on-one time with interactive toys, laser pointers or wand toys (if they enjoy them), treats, brushing, and, of course, lots of cuddles for affectionate cats. For more independent or shy cats, I'm happy to let them set the pace and simply provide calm companionship. Throughout the day, I'll follow your pet's regular schedule for meals, potty breaks, medications, and rest. I'll also send regular updates with photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

To provide the best possible care, I'd love to learn as much as I can about your pet before our visit. Helpful information includes: Your pet's daily routine, feeding schedule, and favorite activities. Any medical conditions, allergies, medications, or special care instructions. Their personality, temperament, and comfort level with new people, other pets, or unfamiliar environments. Any fears, anxieties, or behavioral quirks (such as thunderstorms, fireworks, separation anxiety, or leash reactivity). Emergency contact information and your preferred veterinarian. Any commands, training cues, or house rules you'd like me to follow. The more I know about your pet's unique needs and preferences, the better I can keep them happy, comfortable, and safe while you're away. My goal is to make your absence as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.
