“Erica was great! At the meet and greet my dog already loved her. Spent some quality with our dog and sent us pictures we appreciate! Definitely plan to ask her for help again!”


“Jamie was exceptional! She was very prompt, informative and overall a great person. She did very well with Halo, using the same commands and letting her sniff all her normal spots on walks. Jamie was also great with Halo around other dogs and people as Halo can sometimes not mind others. Thank you again Jamie, you'll be my first call next time I need some help!”



“Jack was great! Super flexible and so helpful in a pinch, and took such good care of our Luna!”


“Always dependable and sweet! Thank you”


About: I have taken care of various types of dog babies across many states. I learn quickly about what a dog needs especially when factoring in weather. I work from home most days and run in the evening. Usually long distance runs are in the morning so not inconvenient for night stays. For my home, I have a very spacious dog park and closed in balcony. Also live close to the riverwalk for night walks. There is space in home for medium sized crates if necessary.

About: My name is Kate and my love for animals is what prompted me to enter the world of pet care. I grew up in a home with dogs and guniea pigs and learned early on how to be responsible in caring for a pet. The Humane Society was close to my childhood home, I would walk there weekly to go in and visit all the different animals and dreamed of owning a bunch one day myself. Later on in my twenties I learned what it was like to have a cat and now am a self proclaimed, obsessed with all the things cat. Currently I have two cats, a spunky Bengal named Benny and a sophisticated tuxedo baby named Olive. My hobbies include weightlifting, walking, yoga, ceramics, listening to podcasts, reading, baking and traveling. I currently work full time Mon-Thurs, 4 days a week which allows me to have, Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning or afternoons available for drop-in visits or walking your pet. I currently am not able to board any other animals in my home as I have two cats that prefer to be the only pets.

About: Hello! My name is Avery ..... I have had dogs all throughout my life and plan to keep it that way! As a kid I grew up with with two beagles, a chocolate lab, a pit bull, and most recently a rescue shar pei/ lab mix. I love seeing every animals personality shine through and spoiling them with love and attention. Each one of my dogs has loved the outdoors (almost as much as me) and had lives full of adventure and exercise. I have also lived with cats and love them (through my previous roommate). I love animals of all breeds and sizes and would love the chance to meet yours! I am a current student so my schedule is semi flexible at the moment. Currently unavailable/working Tuesday evenings (although i pick up other shifts when im able). I try my best to keep my calendar updated to reflect my availability, please reach out if you have any questions! I am super active and would love to spend time outside walking with your pet if you' like and the weather allows! If not we can spend time in-doors playing.

About: I’ve been a groomers assistant and bather at a grooming shop and doggie daycare for a few years in past. I’ve been dog and house sitting for years and I have had a few dogs of my own. I get excited to see every dog and cat I meet, they really make my day. If you’re out of my walking radius and still would like me to care for your pets you can provide transportation fees then I’d be happy to accept the jobs if I’m available that are last minute when you can’t find someone else. This is my only job, caring for pets now. I have worked for over 30 years and I have found pet sitting to be the best retirement gig for my wellbeing. So I’m available quite a bit. I can walk dogs or do house visits for either cats or dogs. I can help with training if you have rules or something you’d like me to help with for your pets. I can also pick up an item you may need from premier pet shop.

“Raeshawn is amazing with my dog!”


About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was old enough for my parents and neighbors to trust me! Grew up with multiple of my both in the house and naturally my first job was dog walking and house sitting around the neighborhood. Have experience working with older pets, puppies / kittens, and large breeds. Currently, live in the Corktown neighborhood with my Australian Shepherd Mel. If you see us out on a walk, say hello! I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is flexible to accommodate your ideal walking and / or care schedule. My Australian Shepard Mel and I walk around Corktown daily and am always up for spending more time outside! For Dog Walking: I follow your lead on your dog's tendencies / preferences. I adhere to your preferred routes and instructions regarding leash etiquette, avoiding off-leash situations unless explicitly discussed and approved. If your dog enjoys canine company, I'm happy to bring my Aussie Mel along, who loves walking with friends! If your dog likes playing ball / frisbee, happy to discuss how we can accommodate that as well. For In-Home Pet Check-ins: I pay close attention to your pet's behavior and appetite, reporting any concerns to you immediately. I ensure fresh water is always available and clean up any messes promptly. I prioritize respecting your space, leaving it just as I found it.

“Ashley was such a great sitter & walker for goose! Great at communicating and took time to come over and meet him prior to his visit. We definitely plan on using her again!”


About: I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, playfulness, and lots of love. What sets me apart is my ability to read animal behavior and adjust care to their unique needs. I have experience with puppies (potty training, high energy) and senior pets (gentle handling, meds, slow walks). Whether your pet is shy, quirky, or full of zoomies, I meet them where they’re at—tail wags guaranteed! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I love being active and spending time with animals, so walks, playtime, and cuddle breaks fit right in. I structure my day around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they get the attention, exercise, and comfort they need. Whether it’s early morning feedings, midday walks, or evening snuggles, I’m flexible and committed to keeping their routine consistent and stress-free In your home, I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible—meals, walks, playtime, and any meds—so they feel safe and stress-free. I respect your space, keep things tidy, and send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. In my home, pets get a cozy, calm environment with plenty of attention, belly rubs, and play. I make sure they have a comfy place to rest, stay on their usual schedule, and get tons of love.

About: I have been taking care of my sister's chocolate lab whenever she is out of town or busy for over 5 years, sometimes for weeks at a time. Outside of normal pet-care, this has included administering medicine, removing ticks, and taking him to the vet in times of emergencies. I love playing and going on long walks. In DC, I often walk and take care of my neighbors and friends pets when they are out of town, off to work, or even when they're working from home. :) I work remotely Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays and can take time away from my desk as needed! I am also completely free on the weekends. I have a park nearby for when your pet needs include care in my home. At my client's home, I make sure there is clear communication about boundaries in the home and how I should be gathering the materials needed for the care of my client's pets.

“tara is excellent - timely, reliable, and communicative. I had no worries leaving my dog with her for walks, and she's absolutely someone I would rely upon in the future. highly recommend!”


About: We took care of our beloved dog for all 12 years of her life. Our house is fully equipped to give your dog a comfortable stay, including a fenced in back yard. And our kids will make sure your dog is entertained and well-loved. I currently only work outside the home on Tuesdays and Thursdays. My husband is gone from 9-3, so the longest your dog would be alone is 6 hours on the days that I work. We have a large house, designated pet area within the home, and a fenced in backyard. We have all the basic amenities to make your dog stay easy on you and comfortable for your dog. We have no other pets currently in the home, but we do have three kids ranging from 2-10 who are comfortable around dogs and have learned how to appropriate play with them.

“Marissa is amazing!! During our meet and greet, she was very attentive and asked thoughtful questions that showed me she is well-versed in dog behavior. Her communication is prompt and friendly, and I could tell my dogs adored her!!”


About: I currently have no pets, but have looked after my own dog Amber as well as families/friends pets since I was a young teenager. I’m not in a place to adopt, but you need someone to look after your pets, and I miss being around them so maybe this will work :) I am currently working full time, but I work from home and have plenty of time to pop out for daily walks, checking on your pets, and really anything. I’m incredibly flexible with this job. Really I am looking to help you in anyway that suits you and your needs, I have a small fenced yard next to mudgies, with plenty of small parks to walk through, and I’m willing to meetup and chat if you would like to see if I am a good fit for you and your pets. I will have the utmost respect for your space and your pets and follow whatever instructions you may have, and work hard to make sure you know your pet is getting the care they deserve.

About: I love all animals! I have about 3 years working at a fear free animal hospital where we only used low stress handling techniques. My love for animals has grown from having my own. I have had dogs, cats, lizards, fish, and other small animals. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. I am looking to expand my list of regulars! I am currently working part time and get to design my own schedule! I can give your fur babies all the attention they need and give them all the time needed! Thanks to my past experience in daycares, I am able to read dogs very well. Whether that’s from reading when they’re anxious, excited, or over stimulated.

I also appreciate how situationally aware and attentive he is—especially when walking my dog or taking her outside. I also feel totally comfortable having him in my home when I’m not there.
