“Chloe is the absolute BEST! She is easy to communicate with, professional and nice! Our super shy cat always comes out for her and feels safe with her. She is our go to cat sitter and would recommend her 10/10!!!”
“Alyssa took fantastic care of our cat Winston! We came home to a well-cared for and happy kitty. We really appreciated all the detailed updates. We will definitely reach out to Alyssa again for our next pet sitting needs. ☺️”
“Kelli did a meet and greet the day before and she was very nice, I was happy to find someone I could trust with my cats. She kept open communication the day of the visit to make sure she had all the info she needed. I would contact Kelli again next time I need help with my kitties.”
“Eric was very communicative and made sure to share photos and play with my cats while I was gone. Gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing he was stopping by at the times I requested to give them attention, especially since it was a bit out of his way.”
About: Hello! Since I was a child I've been a huge lover of animals. I have my own 6-year-old boxer mix who is a sweetheart but a handful (leash reactive to other dogs) and volunteered as a dog walker for the DC Humane Rescue Alliance for six months in 2023, so I have a lot of experience handling dogs with a variety of temperaments and personalities. I currently have wide-open availability after being recently furloughed from my full-time job due to the Executive Order freezing foreign aid. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry babes! Having recently been laid off from my FT job working on maternal and infant nutrition programs due to the Executive Order freezing foreign aid, I have very flexible availability Sunday through Saturday from 8am-8pm. I am available for pet care visits in your home and dog walking. I am very respectful of others' homes and property. I'm happy to do an introductory visit to meet you and your pets.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life so I’m used to being around dogs. My neighbors would go on vacation a lot so I would always be the go-to dog-sitter and walker. I know how to apply topical medications and give pills to dogs to make sure they’re safe and healthy. I always make sure to put the pet care before anything else that I have to do. Whatever needs to get done is less important than the animal that I am taking care of in that very moment. I enjoy being in the moment and present with my animals and love to spend time with them on the daily. For stop by feedings, I love to make sure that the animal feels safe and comfortable with me in their home before I go on with any other steps. Animals feeling comfortable is such an important step in bonding and making sure that they are safe and okay. I love to make sure that they are getting the attention they deserve and spending time with them as well before I go to make sure they feel attended to.
About: Worked at a pet daycare for over a year, experienced with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, plus dog walking and in-home pet care experience :) I would like to fill my weekends up with walking/sitting. I am in school currently and babysit during the week so weekends are only availability I will do everything that’s needed to keep your pet happy and healthy. I can administer medication if needed or crate dogs after I leave.
“Alexa was fantastic with watching my cat for a long weekend. I got plenty of picture updates and she was so communicative throughout the weekend! Will definitely be hiring her again!”
“Matthew has been an amazing pet sitter and care taker for my two boys, including my senior cat with significant health concerns. I was kept updated with each visit, and Matt was very communicative with medications and how much each boy ate. I feel secure whenever Matt watched my boys!”
“Elizabeth was amazing! Great combination of professional and responsible along with warm and cuddly with our kitty boys! I am a very nervous kitty mom and one of our cats had an unexpected health issue, but Elizabeth made me very comfortable that they were being taken care of, and, best of all, sent MANY pictures! Highly recommend!!”
“Kerri goes the extra mile with our pets, making sure all are cared for, fed, and attended to. She responds quickly and has always been available even when last minute. Couldn't recommend Kerri more.”
“Emma was absolutely terrific with our cat Chi-Chi, who can be very standoffish with unfamiliar faces at first. Everything went smoothly with the schedule, and she went above and beyond, spending quality time playing with Chi-Chi. I highly recommend Emma; she is extremely punctual, professional, and will definitely be our first choice the next time we are out of town. She's definitely worthy of a five-star rating.”
