Dog Sitting Riverdale Park

“Gregg was fantastic. He’s knowledgeable about animal care, he’s super nice, and worked well with all of the instructions we left. We were just grateful to find someone to help us when our regular sitter was out, but Gregg turned out to be 10x better than we could’ve hoped for.”

“Emma is so great with our cats, we love having her hang out with them while we’re away. She’s communicative and attentive; we feel comfortable knowing our cats are in great hands when we’re out of town. Thanks again, Emma!”

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, giving pets attention and affection, and following each owner’s specific instructions. I’m responsible, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone you trust, and I’ll keep you updated throughout each visit! I get off of work at a good time to care for your pets in the late afternoons and early evenings. Reliable to meet your needs. I care for every pet according to their individual routine and needs. During drop-in visits, I’ll make sure they have fresh water, food if needed, potty breaks, exercise and playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I’ll follow your instructions closely, respect your home, and make sure everything is clean and secure before I leave. I’ll also send you updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!

“Natalie was great as always! Today was a rough day at work for me I had to stay late and she was available last minute to drop in and take care of Mocha!! 10 star 🌟”

“Maria was so wonderful with our cat Lucy. Lucy is a bit shy but I could tell from the pictures and videos Maria sent me daily that Lucy was comfortable and having a a great time with Maria’s company. Maria was very reliable and even showed up for us on Thanksgiving Day. She sent me a report every day to let me know how the visit went and how Lucy was doing. We hate leaving our Lucy alone for a few days but it was a great comfort to know she was taken such great care of by Maria while my daughter had to go out of town. I will definitely use Maria again if we need a pet sitter in the future and I’m so grateful for her wonderful care of our sweet Lucy.”

About: Hi! My name is Hannah and I am a college student paying my way through school. I have two cats and I’ve also cared for family and friend’s pets. I can complete walks, simple grooming, meals, and activities. I’m currently a full time student , but I am available for you and your family anytime on weekends or after 3pm on Thursdays! I am dedicated to caring for your pets and providing them with adequate attention. I believe in meeting animals where they are. I try to establish trust initially so that their comfort is a priority. I am open to any stipulations or accommodations that they may need at any time.

“Keaton took excellent care of my shy cat, including giving her oral medication. They provided updates and were very communicative through the process.”

“Astrid was amazing! She stepped in and looked after our senior dog. Our dog and cat loved her immediately. We will definitely be using her again.”

“We had a great experience working with Carla! Communication with Carla was very good from the start, and she has great reviews, so I felt confident that my cats would receive the very best care. Carla introduced a laser pointer to our cats, which they were really into! Our cars are not as active as they used to be, so I’m glad they had workouts catching the laser while we were away. Carla even remembered to cancel recurring visits before we returned home, so I didn’t have to remember to do it myself. Sorry, my review is a bit hectic, because I’m severely jetlagged and not thinking straight, but I highly recommend Carla’s services!”

About: I've been an animal lover my whole life, and for the past five years I've had the joy of raising my labradoodle Charlotte since she was born. Caring for her taught me how important patience, attention, and consistency are when it comes to keeping dogs happy and healthy. My passion for helping others with their pets started when I began walking my neighbor’s dog to help her out due to limited mobility. Seeing how much that support meant for both her and her dog made me realize how rewarding it is to help families make sure their pets still get the exercise, care, and attention they deserve. I treat every animal like they're my own — with plenty of love, playtime, and attention to their individual needs. Whether it's a relaxing walk, burning off some energy, or just making sure your pup (or kitty) feels safe while you're away, I'm here to help. I'm a fully remote worker, working 4 days a week meaning my weekends are completely free to help take care of your fur baby. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, consistency, and making sure your pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. During walks, I make sure dogs are securely leashed, stay aware of our surroundings, and adjust the pace and route depending on the dog’s energy level and needs. For drop-in visits, I follow all care instructions closely — whether that’s feeding, refreshing water, playtime, or simply giving your pet attention and companionship while you’re away. I treat every home with respect and make sure everything is left exactly how I found it. I also provide photo and message updates so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up with a dog taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and providing a loving environment for pets. I’m an active, dependable person who enjoys long walks and spending time outdoors on walking trails, so making sure your dog gets plenty of exercise and attention comes naturally to me. Whether your pup loves a leisurely stroll or has lots of energy to burn, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while they’re with me. I understand that pets are family, and I’ll treat yours with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. Pet care fits very well into my weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability. This allows me to provide reliable care, accommodate last-minute bookings when possible, and give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I unfortunately do not have a yard at my residence but I am more than happy to take care of your furry friends on your home

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 8 years old and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for a ferret and a bearded dragon. I strive to be a calm, safe, and comforting presence so your pet feels secure while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like my own and keep you updated every step of the way. I work full-time from Monday to Friday, but my job is not traditional and allows me flexibility with proper notice. I am free in the evenings, other than Thursdays. I am also free on the weekends. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and stress-free environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, respect your home, pay close attention to their needs and behavior, and treat them with the same patience and love I give my own pets. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you always know how they’re doing.

About: We grew up with dogs and love having them around. We enjoy opening up our home and taking care of some furry friends and have a ton of experience dog sitting. We foster dogs through a local rescue, so we're confident any DC dog could be comfortable in our home. We have a 4 year old lab mix who likes to host playmates, but is also respectful of dogs' space if they prefer to have a leisurely stay with us. We're able to work on any training and will crate your dog upon request, or give them access to roam depending on your preference! Most importantly, we have experience handling behavior issues like leash reactivity and separation anxiety, please mention those when booking so we can be prepared to make your dog feel the most comfortable they can when they're away from home. We understand that leash reactivity and dog aggression are different, so while we can sit for a dog that's leash reactive, we unfortunately cannot host a dog that is dog aggressive. If there are any training methods you've been working on with your dog, let us know, and we'd be happy to ensure we are reinforcing the training you've been working on with your dog. Please note: dog-boarding does not mean we will be home 100% of the time and we are happy to discuss your expectations and our boarding set up. For boarding (half days may result in an additional fee. example: saturday 8am drop off and a sunday 10pm pick up is 1.5 days). We can be flexible knowing that delays can happen when traveling!

“Daniela was amazing with Bleu! She was Available at a last minute request, and she took such good care of my dog. Her communication was perfect, she was on time, and she was very friendly. Highly recommended! I will definitely be rebooking her when needed. My dog loved her soo much that she’s the only sitter I want to use moving forward lol. Thank You Daniela :)”

“Kate is amazingly caring and attentive to our girl Cali. She communicates regularly and goes above and beyond each time we’ve used her. Highly recommend!”

About: I've cared for a variety of pets, including cats, dogs, reptiles, and rabbits. I've been lucky enough to live with several wonderful pets, including special needs dogs, and currently share my home with two wonderful cats. I currently work early mornings, with a fairly flexible schedule. I am currently available for afternoon and evenings, but with notice, I can also provide morning check ins. I have the utmost respect for clients' pets and homes and I want to do everything I can to seamlessly integrate pet care into your routines.

About: I've owned my own personal pets for the past 8 years, including a snake, dog, and cat. I've also worked with a variety of species in my educational, personal, and professional life. I work summers in a high-stress environment (clinic/boarding facility) where I am responsible for the day-to-day needs, grooming, and occasional medicating of animals. I own my own animals, so get hands-on-experience with animals everyday! Additionally, as a pre-veterinary major at UMD, College Park, I learn not only the practical ways to work with them, but the scientific reasoning behind why animals do what they do. I also work with them professionally during the summer, when I am not at school. I will not provide services from my home (due to owning my own animals, family at home, etc.). However, any rules set by the owners would be followed to the letter, and I am also extremely capable of making choices in the best interest of both animals and people involved in situations, due to my history of involvement with animals!

About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind. I provide attentive, personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs, whether they’re energetic puppies or gentle seniors. I have experience with basic training for young pets, helping reinforce good habits, and I’m patient and compassionate with older animals who may need extra support or mobility assistance. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while giving owners peace of mind. I can work part time and spend as much time as needed with each pet. I love taking care of animals. Pet care is a part of my daily routine I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, play, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention. Throughout the week, I stay flexible to accommodate different needs. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment. I follow their pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks and any specific instructions. I also keep the home tidy, provide updates (Pictures), and make sure pets feel secure in their familiar environment. At the end of the day I want each pet that I meet to have a loving care experience and feel relaxed and well cared for at all times.
