I highly recommend Ciarra and her family if you are looking for a dedicated, professional pet sitter.”

11. Diana V.
“Diana was absolutely wonderful with our dog and cat! Our dog is older, very anxious with new people, and takes several medications. Diana put her at ease, and handled her so well that we had no worries while we were away. Our cat is a super chill boy, who loved his time with Diana. Diana sent many great pictures and updates so that we could rest easy during our trip. It is so rare that we find someone to care for our pup who she can actually relax around, and we are so happy to have found Diana. We will definitely be using her services again!”

Polite and communicative, Jamie made sure Gracie felt comfortable and well-cared-for in my absence. I couldn't be more grateful for the exceptional service and peace of mind provided, and I highly recommend Jamie to anyone in need of someone trustworthy. I can't wait to work with her again.”
14. Madison K.
About: I am an owner to a boxer pit mix I rescued from San Diego! I’m very active so long walks are not a problem and I have a fenced in yard. My hours are very flexible and am willing to help out families with multiple dogs! I do have favorite dog parks and walkable areas I can take your dog if you do not have a path you’d like me to take them on. I’ve always been a dog lover and aside from walking I can play and swim with your pups! I hope to hear from you! I am part time working from home so pet care for my dog and others takes up most of my time. Which I love to do! I have a fenced in backyard and I have an 8 year old dog who is very good and playful with dogs of all ages
15. Jacob C.
“Jacob and Melissa were amazing! I felt completely at ease knowing my Rosie was in their good hands while I was out of town.”
16. Julia W.
About: I’ve grown up with huskies and they are very high energy and active! I have experience with puppies as my sister adopted a chocolate lab puppy and I was over almost every week, including several different times where I watched him for a week on my own over the last year. I have also taken care of other small and large dogs and used to volunteer at Lucky Dog in D.C. where I walk ownerless dogs for free. My neighbor has relied on me to take care of her two cats for several different week-long occasions. I love playing with animals and will provide the best care because I know that our pets are our family. I work from home so I am able to watch pets during the day. I work from home Monday through Friday, so I am very flexible. I am able to let your pets out at any time of the day! I used to have a husky of my own so I know how important our “fur-babies” are to us. You can trust that I will give them the best belly rubs, treats, and take them on nice long walks. If you choose me as your pet caretaker you can guarantee your pet will get all the love and care they deserve!
17. Christina S.
“Christina is a true gem! Had to change trip plans last minute, and she was so accommodating. She goes above and beyond for all pets, and my animals seem to be bummed that she’s finished pet sitting when I get back lol. I recommend Christina 10000% and would trust any fur baby with her! Thank you for everything Christina!”
18. Madison A.
“Madison was able to watch my cat Frankie on short notice and the week of a holiday! She followed all my instructions and went above and beyond to care for him. She kept me updated with consistent communication and pictures, as well. I will be booking with Madison again :)”
19. Maddi S.
“Maddi was amazing! She checked in on our dogs every day for a week and was always communicative and punctual. She did a great Rover card every time and went the extra mile to cuddle with the dogs when it was too hot to play outside. We love Maddi and highly recommend her!”
20. Bridget M.
About: I have experience caring for all types of animals. Puppies, senior dogs, cats, rabbits, special needs animals. I currently have three dogs of my own. I am passionate about animals and I do a lot of charity work at my full time job to raise money for local animal rescues. I work full-time and care for my own three dogs but there is nothing that makes me happier than being around a dog. I’m generally off on Sundays and Mondays and spend most of my free time at the dog park anyway! I am more than happy to walk and play with your fur baby and feed them! If you’re comfortable with it, I am willing to take them to a dog park. One of my own dogs, Chili, is a very laidback and calm medium sized girl with a playful streak—she is the absolute ideal playmate for dogs of all types and sizes that may need help getting accustomed to being around other pups. If you are interested in socializing your dog, Chili would love to meet them.
