About: I have had dogs my whole life, and love to take them on long walks. I have experience petsitting for two neighbors, including one who has more than one dog.

About: My heart has always held a special place for animals, which is evident from the years I've shared my home with various furry friends. The past four years have been filled with the joy of two mischievous cats, their playful antics and comforting purrs bringing constant warmth to my days. Their presence has added a unique vibrancy to my life, reminding me of the simple pleasures of companionship. Before these feline friends, a succession of loyal dogs graced my life, their unwavering devotion leaving an enduring mark on my soul. Each pet, with their distinct personality, has enriched my life in countless ways, teaching me valuable lessons about love, loyalty, and the enduring bond between humans and animals. I work full time in DC Monday - Thursday and am remote on Sundays. I'm usually home by 4:30 PM most weekdays. I am very flexible with proper communication and am very communicative myself. I'll send daily updates, pictures, and more. I live in a condo with my roommate and his two cats. We've got several toys, scratching posts, and cat posts to keep them entertained during the day.
