House Sitting Potomac Heights

“I can’t recommend Hannah enough as a pet sitter! From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely loves animals and takes her job seriously. She was incredibly attentive, responsible, and caring while watching over our pets. Hannah kept us updated daily with messages and photos, so we always felt at ease knowing our furry family members were in good hands. She followed all care instructions perfectly and even went above and beyond with a few extra touches, like bringing in packages. We came home to happy, relaxed pets and a spotless house. It’s rare to find someone so trustworthy, kind, and thorough. We’ll absolutely be booking with Hannah again!”

About: I’ve had taken care of pets ever since I was 14. I love all type of animals and have so much fun with them. I overall make sure the animals are comfortable and safe while in my care. I currently work a part time job. I’m mainly available during the weekends and mornings or late nights. I am a very flexible person and very understanding when it comes tho scheduling. I always make sure to follow the directions and pay attention to every detail the owner tells me about their animal. I try to see if the animal itself is comfortable and show that I am a very trusting person to be around. Love to take them out and have play with them!

“Melissa was an absolute dream to work with for my two standard poodles! She stayed at my house while I was away, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. When I came home, the house actually looked better than when I left it — everything was neat, clean, and in perfect order. She sent wonderful photos and updates throughout the trip, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pups were happy and well cared for. I came home to happy, relaxed, well-exercised dogs who clearly adored her. This was hands-down the best pet sitting experience I’ve ever had. I will definitely be using Melissa again for future trips! Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

About: Hi, I’m Sanyika! I offer thoughtful overnight and extended-stay care for pet parents who want their animals to remain comfortable in their own home and maintain the routines they already know. I’m a longtime homeowner, experienced house sitter and devoted cat parent to Cali and Mari. I have cared for cats and well-mannered dogs in homes ranging from small studios to large estates, with house-sitting experience throughout the United States and abroad. I work remotely as a wellness and relationship coach, which makes me especially well suited for pets who enjoy companionship and having someone present throughout the day. While I do have scheduled calls and occasional time away from the home, I am not rushing between multiple households or spending the entire day on a walking route. My approach is warm, calm and consistent. I respect each animal’s personality, follow the household routine closely and allow pets to warm up to me at their own pace. I also understand that caring for someone’s pets means caring for their home. I keep spaces tidy, bring in mail and packages, manage trash and recycling, water plants when requested and communicate clearly throughout the stay. For additional peace of mind, I hold an active federal Secret security clearance and understand the importance of discretion, reliability and respecting someone’s private space. My best matches are independent cats and small-to-medium, leash-trained dogs with established routines. I especially enjoy longer assignments that allow me to settle into a neighborhood, work, walk to coffee or yoga, explore a little and come home to keep someone’s pets company. Namaste Home while you’re away. 🐾🏡 I work remotely and can usually spend a substantial portion of the day in the home. My work includes scheduled video calls, so reliable Wi-Fi and a reasonably quiet place to work are important. I build feeding, walks, playtime and companionship around the pet’s established routine. I may occasionally leave for errands, yoga, meals or local activities, so I am best matched with pets who can comfortably be left alone for four to eight hours when necessary. Before accepting a booking, I confirm the exact schedule, how long each pet may be left alone and whether there are any dates when my work commitments could affect the routine. Every new household begins with a virtual Meet & Greet. I want to understand your pets’ personalities, daily routines, walking equipment, feeding instructions, sleeping arrangements and any household details that will help the stay run smoothly. Before you leave, when schedules allow, we will meet in person for a brief conversation where I ask that we confirm: • Feeding and walking routines • Veterinary and emergency contacts • Medications or health concerns • Behavioral triggers and escape risks • Alarm, key and entry instructions • Wi-Fi and workspace information • Household and sleeping expectations • Communication and photo-update preferences During the stay, I provide dependable updates and photographs so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are safe and comfortable. I promptly communicate anything unusual rather than waiting for a small concern to become a larger one. I do not take pets anywhere that has not been approved or change an established routine without permission. I treat your home as a private space and leave it tidy, secure and ready to welcome you back.

About: I have sharpened my abilities in dog care and customer service, ensuring that the pets under my supervision receive the highest level of care and attention. My commitment to safety rules and adaptability allows me to handle various situations with ease, whether walking multiple dogs or catering to the unique needs of each pet. I possess a strong set of skills including cleaning, dog care, customer service, communication, time management, and problem solving. My strengths such as adaptability, responsibility, attention to detail, patience, reliability, and work ethic further enhance my ability to excel in this role. I have hands on experience working in professional dog daycare environments, including at Dogtopia and The Board Hound. In these roles, I cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments in a structured group setting. My responsibilities included supervising playgroups, ensuring safety and positive behavior, feeding and basic care routines, and maintaining a clean, controlled environment. This experience helped me develop strong skills in dog behavior management, calm handling in high energy situations, and building trust with both pets and their owners. Currently Monday-Friday my availability is open. Have time in the morning, lots of time in the afternoon, I can also do overnight if its needed. I like to work with my clients to get an understanding of their pet's daily routine, including feeding times, exercise needs, medications, and special requirements.

About: Hello pet parents! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. From raising family pets of my own to spending the last three years actively fostering rescue dogs, I know firsthand that every pet comes with their own unique personality, energy level, and routine. Over the years, friends, family, and coworkers have continuously trusted me with their beloved pets while traveling, and now I’m excited to bring that same dedicated, compassionate care to your furry family members! Whether your dog is an energetic adventurer who loves long neighborhood strolls or your cat prefers gentle feather-wand games, quiet lap time, and chin scratches, I take pride in providing a safe, attentive, and joyful environment tailored to your pet's needs. I work full-time during standard business hours and am finished by 3:00 PM (free after 3pm). I am fully available for late-afternoon and evening drop-ins, feeding visits, walks, and overnight sitting. In Your Home: Emphasizes respect for client homes, following exact house rules and routines, cat/dog care (litter box + play), and regular photo updates, plenty of walks and snuggles as needed.

About: I've had dogs in my life ever since I could walk! I have always loved furry friends and the joy that they bring. I've personally owned bully breeds, labradors/labradoodles, and shelties. I have cared for dogs as large as Mastiffs and as small as Yorkies. I currently own a friendly, loving, labradoodles named Beau! I'm currently a stay at home dog mama. My schedule is very flexible! I can help with walks, check ins, boarding in my home, and daycare in my home. I have 3 children ages 10,9,7 who share my love for furry friends. I have a labradoodle named Beau who is very friendly, playful and would be thrilled for some playmates!

“As always, Aristose went above and beyond to take good care of our two German shepherds. She is always communicative and loves our dogs very well!”

About: Hi, my name is Diana, I’m a mom to 3 wonderful humans and two sweet dogs. I have always had a dog at home and couldn’t imagine life without them. Dogs are more than pets, they’re family. As a military family who has moved so much, I know how important it is to find someone loving, caring and reliable to take care of your pets. My goal is to provide a loving home for your fur babies while you’re away. I’m also happy to help administer medicine as I’m experienced in this field. My older dog Lilly has been taking medication for over 5 years. My experience includes taking care of my dogs for over 20 years and helping friends at different bases care for their pets while traveling. I’m a proud AF veteran; homeschooling mom who would love to care for your pups while you’re at work or away. My schedule is very flexible and I’d love to help in any way I can. As a young military member, I worked full time and couldn’t have survived without having someone check on my dogs and take them for walks at lunchtime. If this is your current situation, let me help you with your fur babies. Or if you’re traveling, I’d love to take care of your pups by providing a loving home to them. My kids and I are usually home since we homeschool, we will play with your doggies and will love on them as much as we can. I have a fenced yard and two super friendly dogs. They’re both mixed pups rescued in two different states. My dog Lilly has been with us for 11 years and our youngest pup, Panda has been with us for almost 2 years. They are both vaccinated and have all their ticks and fleas meds up to date. I have crates to put away my pups if needed.

About: Being with the NFB {National Federation of The Blind}, I've been around dogs for a very long time. When their owners need a break, I allow them to have time for themselves, and be able to be a regular dog for a bit. I love helping them get groomed, make sure that they're well fed, enjoying walks with them, a whole bunch of other things, including playing with them. This helps the inner child within me, because I'm able to finally reconnect with dogs in a way that I've been reconnecting for the longest amount of time. Thank you for trusting me with them, and have a safe day. Currently, I am working part-time at another job, but hopefully this will be my point of income for a while. I absolutely love the concept of just being paid to play with animals that I have always loved. I can do that any given time frame, any given day, just as long as you are public transportation accessible, I am on my way. I can absolutely assure safety, because I'm a little paranoid about my own. I will make sure that if there's anything I need to know, I will scare me areas around me, know what potential risks there are, potential accidents that could happen, and anything else that needs to be paid attention to. I am good with quickly learning my surroundings and understanding what needs to happen at a very quick pace.

“Andrea went over and beyond. Kaya was well cared for and happy, the house was left in great shape, and when bad weather threatened to delay our return home, Andrea worked with us to be sure Kaya care was covered! Highly recommend!”

“Alex is incredible - incredibly reliable, super communicative, and best of all, my dog absolutely loves him!!! Alex regularly walks Kody, and we won’t hesitate to have him to stay again the next time we’re out of town!”

About: Hi! My name is Courtney, and I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs for family, friends, and acquaintances. I truly love spending time with furry friends, and since I live in a small apartment and can’t have a dog of my own right now, pet sitting gives me the chance to share that love and care with others’ pets. I’m dependable, caring, and patient, and I understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and keeping dogs company. I especially miss walking my dad’s dog every night since I moved away from the area, so I would be happy to give your pup the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Whether your dog needs a walk, companionship, feeding, or overnight care, I’ll treat them like part of the family. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I work from home the majority of the month, and I have flexibility around morning, afternoon, and evening walks of 30 minutes to an hour. As I live in a small apartment, I am happy to visit your four-legged friend in their own environment to ensure the new face does not cause any extra stress!

About: I grew up with three dogs and started dog sitting for my neighbors in sixth grade. Neighbors and friends still ask me to watch their puppies. I’m attending college classes, so my schedule is flexible. I will adjust my availability to fit your needs. I’m also open to coming earlier or later if needed. I will ensure your pets are safe, cared for, and that I follow your instructions. I enjoy spending time with dogs and taking them to parks.
