About: I grew up in a household with rabbits, cats, and dogs. I let them sense my energy and know that I'm a safe person. I will also do pet portraits for an extra fee if interested. I'm taking a few months off work so my schedule is wide open. I'm also earning an MSW but class is remote so even on days when I have school pet sitting isn't a problem, I live alone in a one bedroom apartment so have privacy and a fair amount of space. When coming to a client's home I will respect the instructions I was given.

Justin was wonderful! He sent check-in each time he walked and fed our dog Juni, and he clearly enjoyed spending time with her. We were happy to know he’s walked a few of our neighbors’ dogs too, so he was very comfortable with the neighborhood. I will definitely be hiring him again!

About: Trusted Friendship Heights walker caring for dogs since age 10. Providing attentive, part-time care tailored to your pup's needs, from energetic puppy to specialized senior dog accommodation. I work remotely from home, which is great for me but even better for your pup! My schedule is super flexible, meaning I’m always ready to pause my screen for some morning or afternoon walkies and playtime. Think of me as your dog's personal remote-work coworker—minus the boring meetings, plus a lot of belly rubs and neighborhood adventures to keep them happy while you're away! Nature walks and social hour! I love taking dogs out to the beautiful parks nearby so they can stretch their legs and explore. If your furry family member thrives with a little extra company, they'll hit the jackpot here—my dog is excellent at making new friends and loves having a buddy for playtime. I customize everything to your dog's pace, ensuring they feel completely safe, loved, and thoroughly entertained.

About: Growing up with three dogs, I have learned not only that different dogs have their own lifestyle and personality, but also different feeding habits and behaviors. My clef pallet pup, Daisy, has taught me that patience can lead to happiness and learning with all kinds of dogs. As a recent high school graduate, I am available all summer to care for your furry friends. As I prepare for college, I am building my savings to have a successful first year! Growing up, I have had dogs of different sizes, from teacup size to 50+ pounds. Not only do I have experience with tricky behavioral dogs, but also pups with disabilities, such as clef pallets.

About: Growing up I’ve always had animal companions in my family’s house. My family has had generations of dogs raised into senior ages full of health. I currently have my buddy Timmy who’s been with me since I was 9, he’s a 14 year old German Shepard, Corgi mix. I’ve been responsible for his senior care for the last 5 years and have learned so much. I’m excited to be a part of your companions life and look forward to working with you! I am currently a full time student at an online university. My schedule is very flexible, so I am certain I can work with you to find consistent times to meet your pets needs. I believe that keeping a pet on a leash while on walks is the best way to protect them. I will ensure that your pet enjoys their time outdoors while being extra safe. I am a vigilant person as well, so I’ll always be on the look out for danger 🫡🫡

Meg is the best dog walker I’ve ever had. She provides excellent care, truly loves animals, is very professional, and writes very detailed notes. She anticipates my dogs needs and is always prepared to go above and beyond- like putting her cooling vest on, bringing her water bottle, and rewarding good behavior on walks. I am so sad to no longer have Meg as a walker as I am moving, she will be missed!!!

Natasha is an absolute lifesaver! I reached out last minute after an unexpected work event came up, and she responded almost immediately — no hesitation, just a quick "I've got you." That kind of responsiveness means everything when you're scrambling. But what really stood out was how she treated Boey. She didn't just walk him and call it a day — she spent extra time playing with him and genuinely getting to know him. You could tell it wasn't just a job for her. She's compassionate in a way that's hard to find, and Boey was in great hands the whole time. Highly recommend Natasha — especially if you ever need someone you can count on in a pinch. Will 100% hire again!
