TLC for pupper during your R&R!

Pet care experience

Hi! We’re 30-something life long dog lovers and owners. We have extensive experience with both small and large dogs as well as having considerable experience with puppies, senior puppers, and dogs requiring medical care! We know what it feels like to worry about your doggo when it comes time to make travel plans or if you need someone to watch your pup during the day- we would love to take away your stress on that front. We'll go on long walks, runs, or jaunts to the Althea Tanner dog park/Congressional Cemetery (whatever is their thing!). We’ll send daily updates and pictures, and you can fully enjoy your time apart knowing all is well on the home front. Happy to host your furry friend at my place while you travel! We have a 1 year old golden retriever, Fitz (in profile photo) who has never met a stranger and is incredibly friendly and social. He loves all dogs and ppl, and would love a furry friend to hang with while you travel or work.

Sarah was amazing with my puppy Nellie. She sent frequent updates and I had no concerns at all while I was away. Nellie unfortunately had an accident in her crate over the night, and Sarah was so gracious about it - she is THE BEST!!!!

Sarah took amazing care of our dog Ty! They went on long walks, trips to the dog park, and more! We got regular photos and updates as well. Would recommend Sarah to anyone!

Sarah was wonderful. We came back from a short getaway to a tired, happy boy! Will certainly look to book again in the future. Many thanks!

Sarah and Brian were awesome w my slightly shy pup, AWoo, on short notice for a day trip I took. They arranged a quick meet and greet so I knew she would be comfortable and sent several photos over the course of the day while I was away. AWoo seemed very happy with them and their fun-loving pup Fitz. Would definitely have them take care of my girl again!

Information Sarah H. would like to know about your pet

Any allergies or medical conditions? We want to keep your pupper safe. Let us know if there are foods (etc) we should avoid! Level of training? In instances like visits to Congressional Cemetery or a dog park where fencing allows dogs to go off leash- is that something that your doggo can do? Or is he happier/safer on-leash at all times? Aggression towards other dogs? Does pupper enjoy the company of other doggos? Or do they prefer to hang one-on-one with humans, and less with other furry friends? Is your pupper crated or free roaming? If they’re staying with us and we need to run out to the store, etc, do they do okay? And do they need to be crated/penned?

A typical day

We can go as close or as far as your pupper enjoys. Neighborhood walks or runs, playtime at the dog park or Congressional Cemetery, hikes, or easy peasy lazy afternoons- whatever your doggos favorite routine is
