“Jack and Katie were absolutely fantastic! They were so incredibly patient with my young puppy who is still going through quite a bit of training. During a very chaotic time for me, I was so relieved to have people I trust watching my girl! Will absolutely be booking with them again in the future. Highly recommend! Thank you both!”
“Linda provided excellent care for my cat while I was away and was very good about sending photos and videos. I will definitely hire Linda again to check in on my cat.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life! I grew up with three dogs and now live with three cats—one’s mine, and the other two are my siblings’ (but they basically think I’m in charge 😎). I’ve helped care for pets of friends, family, and neighbors over the years, including walking dogs, feeding, playtime, and even overnight stays. I also completed an internship at Prince George’s Animal Shelter, where I got hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all personalities and needs. From playful pups to shy senior pets, I know how to adjust and make each one feel loved and safe. Whether it’s cuddles, walks, feedings, or giving meds, I’ve got it covered! Taking care of animals is already part of my everyday life—I live with three cats, so feeding, cleaning, cuddling, and making sure everyone’s happy is part of the routine. I work just five minutes away from home, which makes it super easy for me to pop in for check-ins, walks, or drop-in visits throughout the day. Whether it’s early morning, midday, or evening care, I can usually make it work without stress. Pet care just fits naturally into my schedule—I love it and honestly wouldn’t have it any other way! Whether your pet is staying at my home or I’m coming to yours, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved—like part of the family. At my house, I have space (fenced yard, catio, and nearby park) for your dog or cat to relax, play, and feel at home, plus I follow their usual routines (meals, potty breaks, meds, etc.) to help them settle in with less stress. My pets are friendly and used to having furry guests around! If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I make sure to follow your instructions closely and keep things just how they’re used to—whether that’s specific feeding times, favorite toys, walks, or just being there for company. I always give updates and photos so you know your pet is in good hands while you’re away.

I’m dependable, patient, and pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs. Whether your dog loves to play or just wants cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I'm available for house sitting /boarding on weekends and weeknights after 2PM with some flexibility depending on your needs. Your pet won't be left alone for long periods and will get lots of love, playtime, and care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced yard and two friendly, well-socialized dogs to keep your pet company. I always supervise interactions and can separate or crate dogs if needed to ensure everyone feels safe. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly so your dog feels comfortable and cared for.
