“Omar and Claudia were fantastic! Gizmo is easy going but Pepe is super hard to please, and they managed to gain his trust in no time. Omar and Claudia were punctual, professional, reliable and kind. They kept communicating with us throughout the sitting period and share photos and videos of our two boys. Their dedication to our dogs is greatly appreciated and we’ll definitely book them again soon. We really appreciate their dedication to make sure everything was perfect.”

16. Malek B.


“Malek did a great job letting Gimli adjust to a new human at his own pace. He asked for guidance when needed, to help Gimli build trust in him. Gimli greeted him happily when he returned to pick up his things, so I know Gimli feels comfortable. As the owner of a sensitive, intelligent and active dog this was just what I was looking for. Thank you, Malek!”


17. Jennifer C.

“Jennifer was very comfortable with our older dog and willing to accommodate his quirky habits and need to do more bathroom visits (even in the middle of the night). It was clear she has been around and cared for all kinds of dogs and knows they are all unique! She arrived on time and was very communicative about her and his schedule. Highly recommend for in home dog care!”


18. Brooke H.
About: I enjoy being around dogs, as they are the happiest- and who doesn’t enjoy being around happy, furry animals - that show nothing but love and affection. I have had my own dog in the past for about 10 years, and enjoy being around my friends as well. There’s something super special about dogs to me, and I bond with them so easily, and I feel that that the dogs can feel that energy- as well as building their trust. I love being active as well, so the combination of that, which also makes the dog happy, we would be a great duo! I love also teaching new tricks, and seeing the dog interact with me and how well I would treat him/her makes it even more easier to enjoy the time spent together! I currently work from home 50% and have a very flexible schedule while in office which is in Rockville. So I am not too far from Olney. I love being active also so I’m always wanting to be outside. Safety is most important, so making sure that they are closely watched, and also fed and walked at certain hours for routine purposes. I also would make sure they are properly bathed, taken care of, and loved!


19. Lily S.

“Lily was a fantastic sitter for Ella. Ells seemed to take to Lily pretty quickly, and Lily was not shy to provide constant updates on how Ella was doing, including pictures when she walked her, which was often. I would absolutely ask Lily to watch Ella again in the future.”


20. Jeffrey B.

“Jeffrey saved the day with our anxious pup during a recent stay - while helping us sort out a FedEx delivery AND a problem with our deadbolt! He goes far above and beyond anything one should expect from a sitter and delivered amazing care for our dog who needed to be coaxed into eating and drinking while we were away. He’s also a great communicator who will keep you informed and share lots of pet photos and videos. Recommend Jeffrey highly, but please leave some time on his schedule for us! 😂 He’s a keeper!”
