About: Hello to every cynophile and ailurophile on here. My name is Carmen and I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California and if you are familiar with people from LA, you know we LOVE ALL animals. I grew up with a big family who loves animals and since I can remember we’ve always had pets at home. Back in LA we have 4 dogs, 1 turtle and now added to that 5 love birds! Anyways, I no longer live there and moved to the east coast with my partner about 2 years ago. Our new home now houses just 2 cats. One of them is a tabby cat who is 6 years old named Blinchik. He is a very outgoing cat that loves everyone and everything. My other cat is named Nala (Siamese/Tabby) and she is quite the opposite from Blinny boy. She loves to keep to herself and takes a while to trust anyone but once she is warmed up you can see her beautiful shy personality. I used to be a nanny which also meant I took care of their pets as well. I have lots experience taking care of other families pets as well as administering medications when needed. Since I’ve been a dog and cat mom, I treat other families pets like they are my own. I’m currently in grad school to become a Speech-Language Pathologist which gives me a lot of extra time to take care of your fur babies 🩷 I’m currently in my graduate program to become a Speech-Language Pathologist. I’m in school Monday-Thursday with only one class a day. That being said, it gives me lots of extra time in the afternoon/evening to fill up with some dog walking, pet sitting, and playing time. My home has a fenced yard so if your fur baby is staying with me, they will have the yard all to themselves to run around and have fun. If I am coming to your home, know that I will respect it and get the job done as well as loving your pet as if they were my own.

“Christine took the best care of my two girl!! My cat Izzy requires extra medical care and Christine ensured Izzy was happy and healthy!! Christine is also very prompt and communicative. Highly recommend.”

“Skylar took care of my two kitties for a weekend and was incredibly attentive, left detailed report cards on them, and took time to get them out of their shells since they can both be a bit shy! One of my boys, who hides any time other people come over, even came out to say hi to him a couple of times and he got him to play! I highly recommend Skylar.”

About: For the last five years, I have taken care of several dogs in my neighborhood. Mostly walking them, at times several walks a day, and dogsitting as well. I am able to account for the needs of dogs and am able to safely walk them. I am also a proud owner of two beautiful cats, so I am familiar with the habits of cats and how to tend to their needs! All my neighbors view me as a trustworthy companion and caregiver for their furry friends I am currently full time at home. My availability will be dependent on variable day-to-day errands, but I will be sure to prioritize my furry clients! I will keep a leash on your pet at all times while walking and be sure to follow your directions for your pets' care regarding food, treats, water and anything else.

“Perry was wonderful! She paid attention to all the little details, and took such good care of our sweet boy. We’re admittedly crazy cat people and always get a little anxious leaving him, but Perry made us feel so much better with pictures and videos. I hate to say that the highlight of our vacation days was seeing his rover report card. We know he’s in good hands with her and she’ll be our top choice next time we need a sitter.”

About: I currently work part-time about four days a week, usually from 9–3 or 10–3, and my work hours are fairly flexible as well. Outside of those hours, my schedule is pretty flexible and I have plenty of availability for cat sitting, including mornings, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. I’m also happy to work around your cat’s normal routine and feeding schedule as much as possible. Cats are creatures of routine, so whenever possible, I recommend having them cared for in their own home while their owners are away. Being able to stay in a familiar environment with their usual smells, hiding spots, and routine can help make the experience less stressful for them. When I’m caring for your cat, I try to keep their routine as normal and consistent as possible. I’ll follow any instructions you leave for feeding, litter, medications, playtime, and anything else that’s part of their normal day. I’m also very careful around doors and entryways, especially with cats who are curious or like to try to sneak outside. I’ll respect your cat’s space and let them decide how much interaction they’re comfortable with rather than forcing attention. I’m also happy to send photos and updates while you’re away so you can see how they’re doing.

About: Hi! My name is Isabella; I go by Izzy and I've been a reliable pet sitter for the past 5 years. During college, I was an in-house pet sitter for a 2-year-old Maltese and also regularly in-house sat for a lab mix and Husky. I would also occasionally watch my friends' dogs during long holiday weekends here and there. When completing my Master's I offered drop-in visits to residents in my apartment complex and gained plenty of experience walking different breeds of all sizes and ages. I understand that every pet has an established routine and unique needs, so I like to build trust with the pets I sit and value creating a meaningful bond by learning each pet's personalities, habits, and preferences. I work full time in-person in Washington, D.C., Monday-Wednesday and remotely from Herndon, VA Thursdays and Fridays. My schedule allows me to flexibly work around the DMV, with greater daytime flexibility on my remote workdays and availability before or after work when I am in the office for D.C. residents. I can work remote from anywhere which is helpful for pet parents wanting a sitter starting on Wednesday evenings to Sunday if traveling over a weekend. I value open communication and like to provide as many updates as possible/as frequently as owners would like through photos or just casual check-in texts. I believe honesty is the best policy and bring up any concerns immediately to the owners. I always ask about emergency contacts/emergency vet locations in case it is ever needed. Building trust with owners is just as important as building a strong bond with your furry friend, so I like to get to know owners before sitting and talk about our communication styles.

About: I’ve grown up around pets and love making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for! I’d like to say I graduated from TikTok University with a degree in pet care. I’m attentive, patient, and big on keeping things clean and sticking to each pet’s routine. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I’d want for my own. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable and at ease! I recently graduated from VCU and am looking for a fun and fulfilling way to spend my free time doing something I genuinely love! I have a huge soft spot for animals and would love to help take care of yours. My schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away! When someone else is caring for my own cats, I know how reassuring it is to receive pictures and updates throughout the day, so I make it a priority to do the same for you! I believe in treating others the way I’d want to be treated, and that means keeping you in the loop, respecting your home and instructions, and making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. You can expect regular updates, cute pictures, and the peace of mind of knowing your fur baby is in good hands!

“Esther was wonderful with our two cats, one of whom needs medication. She followed the instructions on their special food and kitty-preferences and we know they were in good hands while we were away. She sent thorough updates and communications. I would definitely love to have her take care of our girls again and would highly recommend her!”

“As always, Sanya was trustworthy, professional and very conscientious about our cat's care whille we were away recently. Our cat is always in grea hands with Sanya! -- Tricia”

“Laryssa was amazing! We had a last minute change to our care in that one of our cats needed medication. Without hesitation she had no problem giving it to our cat. We also had an issue with one of our cats feeders. Laryssa had a solution that completely worked and took care of the situation easily. I have never felt so at ease leaving my cats with someone. Will definitely be using her again!”

About: With 20 years of experience for caring my dogs through puppy phase to old age, I’ve handled my chihuahua who passed at 15 and my German Shepherd that passed from Lymphoma. My compassion for animal goes beyond a simple walk and feed. We are their whole lives and I treat them as such especially when they are in my care to give both you and them, the comfort in your absent. Thank you for trusting me to be in your home and caring for your loved ones. Any excuses to enjoy our beautiful northern Virginia weather with a cute buddy by my side! I love walking and allow your dog to guide me on their trail and where they want to sniff or indoor play time with your cat. With the care experience I have, I know my time with them is short while you are away therefore, I want to make the most of it with their comfort as my top priority. Home is our safe place and sanctuary. With the up most respect to your home, I will only care for the pet and the things you allow me to touch. Thank you for allowing me in your home

About: I’ve been pet sitting for a while and genuinely really enjoy it. I’ve taken care of dogs with all kinds of personalities, from super energetic and playful to the ones that just want to hang out and sleep all day lol. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, sitting, and boarding, and I’m pretty flexible with my schedule. I’ll always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and feels comfortable with me, and I’m happy to send pictures and updates while you’re away! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. Since I’m in school and only working part time, I have plenty of flexibility and free time to dedicate to walks, playtime, and consistent care. I enjoy using that time to be active and spend it with pets, so it’s a perfect fit for me. I follow each pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and secure. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a safe, clean space with plenty of attention, playtime, and care as if they were my own.

“Savannah was great with my 19 yr old cat. She was very responsible and I will definitely use her next time!”

“Elle was a fantastic cat and house-sitter. She was able to navigate and manage care for both our special needs older cat and our slightly rambunctious younger cat. When we returned home, our condo looked perfect; the cats were happy, the litter scooped, and everything was in order. 10/10, I would happily trust Elle with our cats again.”
