About: Ever since my parents let me get a dog I’ve been a dog lover ever since! I’m excited to be that friendly face that pets need. I just got a cat of my own and love her to death- so I’m a new cat lover! I’m reliable and willing to do what you need for your pet :) I’m a nurse so I work 3 shifts a week! On my off days I like to workout and go for walks so it’s the perfect opportunity to take your dog out for a walk or do a drop-in visit In my own home I have two doodles and I’ve grown to love them and their personalities. When friends or family would go out of town I am easily availble to walk, feed, and care for a dog. I follow instructions well and I’m easy to get along with and trust!
“Donna was an amazing sitter who got along with my cat greatly! She is very nice and obviously loves being around pets! Will definitely contact her again if I need a sitter!”
“Sara was great with our shy cat. She was punctual and reliable for our long stay away from home, and provided regular updates and pictures. We will be booking with Sara again!”
“Jill was amazing! She followed the instructions for our cats perfectly and it gave us a lot of peace of mind while away. Sent plenty of pictures - would definitely book again!”
“Becca was able to look after my senior guy for a few nights at the last minute & I could not have been more thankful and happy with how she took care of my Sumo! Thank you so much for everything!”
“Victoria watched our older cat, Lucky, while we were on vacation. She was highly communicative, very caring, and sent great photos of a cat that’s pretty shy. I’d highly recommend her. We came home to a very happy kitty!”
“Anna is wonderful! She took such good care of our Charley and was very patient cleaning up the occasional mess. 😊 We felt so comfortable knowing that our girl was in calm, capable, caring hands. Anna was great at communicating with us and we loved seeing updates of their adventures throughout the day. We would definitely hire Anna again!”
“I had a great experience working with Emma! She took great care of my kitties and helped give medication to one of them, while also monitoring her condition and keeping me updated every day. It really gave me peace of mind. The kitties are happy to see her again!”
“Brendan was great with our 2 dogs. The dogs seemed to like him and the pictures proved that. He took his time with each dog individually which was nice for the dogs to get their own attention. Thank you for respecting our home and taking care of our fur-babies! We are definitely keeping Brendan in our favorites.”
“Lauren and Wynn took excellent care of our kitties! One of our cats hates strangers but quickly opened up to them (which is always a good sign). Highly recommend!”
“Nina accommodated me last minute, and did an absolutely fantastic job! she sent me photos of my dogs, and even went out of her way to give them treats at the end of the visit from her own stash when I didn’t have my own, and followed directions perfectly! she made sure to keep any temperaments that I had let her know about in mind while dropping in with them, and my babies seem so happy with her care. will definitely be using her again!”
“Absolutely wonderful sitter! Very thorough and even took the time to bond and play with our timid cat! Sent tons of photos and videos letting us know when/if our cat was eating/drinking/playing.”
“Mengshu and Thomas were fabulous to work with! They dropped in on my cats over the weekend. They paid extra attention to them, took a ton of photos, and even brought a toy over one day. I could definitely tell from the photos that the cats had warmed up to them very quickly. I am looking forward to booking with them for our next travels. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: What sets me apart is my experience and flexibility. I started pet sitting in college and have always loved caring for animals. Now that I work locally with summer hours ending before 5, I’m able to offer reliable drop-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I treat every pet like my own and understand how important consistency and trust are for pet owners Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I work in Hyde Park, so I’m already in the area during the week. On Wednesdays I’m off at 1, Thursdays at 2, and Fridays I’m off all day, which gives me plenty of flexibility. I care for pets like they’re part of the family. My own dogs are definitely spoiled — we have a 10.5-year-old Lab/Collie mix and recently adopted a 1-year-old Chihuahua mix — so I’m used to caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their pet’s normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and comfort to help them feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away
“Margo took great care of my crazy Pup! She was very communicative and made sure he was thoroughly entertained and comfortable during her visits, which made me feel so at ease while I was away. The adorable pictures she sent were also a huge plus ☺️ She is definitely my go-to sitter from now on!!”
About: I have over one year of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I provide safe, loving, and reliable care, including walking, feeding, playtime, and basic grooming. I am patient, attentive, and always focused on making pets feel comfortable and happy. I treat every pet like my own and follow all instructions carefully to ensure their routine and well-being. I’m a freelance photojournalist based here in DC, looking for ways to fill the extra downtime in-between assignments by doing something I love. My schedule varies and is quite flexible depending on your needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walking, medication, and routines. I keep a clean, calm, and secure environment and always supervise pets during walks and playtime. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and provide regular updates so you feel confident and at ease.

We usually use a family member to take care of our cats. Due to a scheduling conflict we needed outside help. Sara did a great job! She was great at sending several photos of my happy cats. Sara was even able to see and get a photo of my super scared cat (Odie) that no ever sees, that just doesn't happen. We asked Sara to stay for an hour to love on them so they would not feel so abandoned. She did just that and we have pictures showing how our needy/affectionate cat (Loki) just crawled all over her. The area around the food and water bowl was left clean and tidy. The liter box was cleaned regularly. Thank you for attention to detail. If they could talk I am sure they would ask for Sara again by name.
Naomi took excellent care of our Kitties! With her knowledge & love for all cats we felt fortunate & confident with our Kitties in her care. Her attention to bringing in the mail & daily photos/videos was an extra bonus! 5🌟 all the way! We will rebook and would highly recommend!
