“We used Byamba's dog sitting services for our English Bull Terrier this weekend. Our dog, Blanca, had a wonderful time at his house while we were out to brunch with our friends. He took such great care of her in the few hours we left her with him. They went on a walk and played in the backyard! Even though she was only there for a few hours, we received multiple photos. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Blanca for us today, Byamba!!!”

“Guy helped us out when we needed a Doggie Day Care while we were visiting Arlington National Cemetery for an interment. We didn't know how long the 3 ceremonies would take, and he told us that he would help us for whatever we needed. With all that was going on for us, he offered comfort in taking care of our beloved Toby.”
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs- big and small! I have experience with a variety of types and LOVE them all. I’ve taken care of friends and loved ones dogs for years- ranging from little shih tzus to adorable pitbulls! I have multiple hours a day I can dedicate to pet care- I am also quite active so incorporating them into my routine is natural (walks, play time, running) I have a big yard and lots of space for the animals to find comfort inside the house. When in my apartment, I have access to a park right across the road!
“Chloe has made some good friends at HK’s . She looks forward to going there twice a week and loves the freedom she has to roam and play. HK is always very attentive and caring, and very accommodating.”
“Nando had a fantastic experience with Kris and her puppy! Kris is very easy to communicate with and we’re very happy to have her be part of our care team!”
About: My fiancé and I both work fully remote, which means your pup will have constant care, attention, and plenty of outdoor time in our fully fenced yard.

Whether your dog needs extra cuddles, structured routines, or just a safe space to relax, we're here to meet all their needs and make them feel right at home! Since both my fiancé and I work from home, we're able to give dogs our full attention throughout the day—whether that’s potty breaks, playtime in our fenced yard, walks in our neighborhood, or just relaxing nearby while we work. In our home, pets are treated like part of the family. We maintain a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they can relax and feel secure.

Our fenced yard allows for safe, supervised outdoor time, and we offer lots of play, affection, and attention throughout the day.

“Amy saved the day for my chiweenie, Willar and I. Her pup Winston is a such a cute little guy and very mild mannered. Amy took great care of my little senior pup currently on a special diet and needing lots of attention and affection. Amy was also flexible and understanding of my own separation anxiety being away from my furbaby 😄”
About: I’ve been dog sitting for friends and strangers alike ever since I graduated and moved to DC in 2019! It all started because I had such a deep love for dogs, but was not yet ready to have one of my own. Nowadays, I share an adorable little mutt with my boyfriend, and we split the care for her fairly evenly. Because of this, if you’re interested in boarding your pet, they need to be friendly with other dogs; ours absolutely LOVES them. Otherwise, I am happy to pet sit at your residence. Additionally, I have experience with elderly dog care and will cater to whatever their needs are. I’m a full-time corporate girlie with a flexible, hybrid work schedule. I’m normally in the office 2-3 days/week, but can work from home the entire duration of your pet’s stay, if that is desired. I’m happy to work with you to create the exact level of care and attention you desire for your doggo. Your pet would have free rein of the house while we’re home and would be kept in a separate room/ crate than our dog when we’re away. We do have a yard, although it’s not fenced in, so we let our dog run around on a 50 ft leash in the backyard; we could do the same for your dog!
“Pickles LOVED her day spent with Katerine & Brian! We received updates and pictures of Pickles throughout her day! This is the first time Pickles has ever been left with anyone other than family or friends, and naturally we were nervous - but the updates truly helped us feel at ease! Thanks again, we would definitely reach out to Katerine for her service again, while in the DC area!”

About: I had a dog for 8 years and have found myself an "auntie" to many of his dog friends. Mine was a rescue dog, so I have first hand knowledge of some behavior issues that can come along with some rescued dogs. I have the patience, love, and demeanor to take great care of your pet like they're part of the family. I work full time from home, and have for many years. I can arrange my schedule for mid-day walks/breaks/potty time and there's nothing I love more than a good adventure or an evening walk. I live in a pet friendly building, so while I don't have a dedicated yard, I know of plenty of areas in the neighborhood to get to play and exercise. I will not accept multiple pets from different families, so your pet will have my dedicated attention while in my care.
About: I've grown up surrounded by dogs at home, and volunteered at the local animal shelter, so it was obvious that I got my first own dog after finishing university. She was a rescue who was possibly previously abused and had severe medical conditions. So, I had to become a reliable owner in her eyes to be able to build a strong and trustful connection between us. Together we completed a basic and an advanced dog training, and attended personal coaching sessions. I am currently training her to speak via dog-speaking-buttons. I have prior long-term cat-sitting experience (2-4 months), and frequent short term dog sitting experience (1-3 weeks). I am currently studying from home so I am very flexible to attend your dog's needs. I have my own dog (and husband) who loves to go for walkies anytime during the day. We live in a two-bedroom apartment with enough space for your dog to spend a little alone time if he/she likes it. My dog is friendly with other dogs after getting to know each other. They will first meet on neutral grounds, outside of the apartment. I can manage any dietary needs, medications, special instructions.
“Caroline was great communicating leading up to watching our pup, and provided prompt updates when we texted her throughout our dog’s day of daycare. Our dog was tired after a long day of sniffing around her yard!”
About: Hello from the mother, daughter, and dad team! Apart from the necessary cuddles, activity, and attention we offer, all and any instructions will be followed to a t. My parents and I have been providing care to beloved pets for a little over 13 years and never get tired of it! Due to the nature of my job (work from home) and my parents are retired, so, your pooch or kitty will always be within our sight and well accompanied. We are fit individuals that live close to many parks and trails, free of traffic. We look forward to meeting your furry companion and taking the best care of them, as if they were our own. I work from home and throughout the day I have dedicated time set aside to go on walks, play with, love on, and take care of your babies! And as mentioned, my parents are retired and have plenty of free time throughout the week. We are attentive to the pets needs and safety. We follow your close instructions on what is best to do, what to avoid, what they can and can’t eat. And of course, are completely transparent about how your pet is doing.

Pets will not be left unsupervised at any time, they will always be with me or caged for their safety should I step out of the house. Keeping your pet safe during their stay is my priority, they are a key part of your family!

She recently watched my 3 year old mini aussie doodle, Sailor, who can be a handful. When I went to pick him up he didn’t want to leave because he was having so much fun playing in the yard. Sailor also requires daily medication and Cho made sure he got everything he needed. She’s fantastic and it’s nice to be able to travel worry free knowing Sailor is safe and having the best time.”

15. Viktoria & Bence S.
“My dog is amazing but not an easy one for sure. Even after many schooling and private lessons he still has his own ideas and can get distracted by everything. He always needs a 100 % attention or he will do something that he shouldnt… Viki always handled him with ease and at the good level of firmness. The way I can tell that its good for both because they both get very happy and excited too see each other! I can leave my precious with her for a weekend or for a week and theres never an issue. Maybe she could send more pictures while im away, I mean come on, 1 picture a day? Jokes aside, happy to recommend her!”
