“Lia was great! Our older and anxious cat was very comfortable with her. We got frequent updates and photos and felt very reassured that our cat was in good hands. Our cat needs daily medication, which Lia also took care of without issues. Highly recommended!”
“Boy, i feel really lucky to have come across Donna. Donna was awesome with Suzie. I was concerned since Suzie can be a feisty pup. But she took to Donna in no time and they really seemed to hit it off. Donna was very fast to respond and my mind was so at ease knowing that Suzie was in her care. I think that is about the highest praise i can possibly give.”
“Jasmine and Stormi were great with Roxy. Roxy was transitioning between dog foods during her stay and Jasmine handled it like a pro. I would highly recommend Jasmine for your next trip.”
“Our 13 yo pitbull loved her stay with Christian! She is very communicative, sent us photos, and made sure she got all her meds. Would leave our pup with her again.”
“Stephanie and Luis are the absolute best! They provided fantastic care for Toto. The communication was outstanding and frequent. The reassuring updates made my time away completely stress-free. Toto came home incredibly happy and well-cared for. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Incredible! From the first moment, I knew my pup was safe and loved on. Abigail consistently communicated how he was doing and sent pictures that made my day every day! I highly recommend her services. I have booked with Rover before, but this was by far the best experience.”
“I genuinely cannot recommend McKinley enough! She is the sweetest, kindest, and most thoughtful sitter I could have ever asked for. From the moment I dropped Hamilton off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such amazing hands. She sent me daily photos and checked in throughout the day with updates on everything he was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I’ve honestly never seen Hamilton happier. He looked so comfortable, loved, and genuinely excited to be there, I think he was actually a little sad to leave, lol. It was so obvious that McKinley treated him like he was her own, and that meant the world to me. If you’re looking for someone who will truly care for your pet, keep you updated, and go above and beyond, McKinley is the person to book. I would trust her with Hamilton again in a heartbeat and will absolutely be using her in the future. I would 1000% recommend her to anyone looking for the best possible care for their pet!”
“Erin took wonderful care of Sully. She comforted him during some loud storms, which I’m very grateful for. To ease my worry, she was very communicative and sent lots of updates & pictures. Would happily rebook her again!”

“Matthew treated our pups like they were his own. They were super happy and very well taken care of. Fantastic communication. Easy going and easy to work with. My pups already want to go back. Thanks for the fantastic experience!”
“Rodrigo did a great job taking care of my sweet Frenchie, Bella. He sent me daily pictures and made sure to listen carefully to my care instructions. His own dog, Luna, was a great playmate to Bella and she came home happy and exhausted. I'd definitely use Rodrigo again!”
“Amazing care. She sent pictures of my dog everyday. She even let me extend last minute which was appreciated. He had an amazing time with her and I will be rebooking with her. Thank you again.”
“5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Laura is in constant communication. This made the entire experience an absolute dream 💭 . Although I had to leave my little Très Darling for two weeks, Laura made sure, every day, that I had pictures and updates about my Très Darlings day❣️ When we arrived home, Darling told me all about how they played in the snow, walked a lot, slept in the bed, 🛌, and met new friends. She loves Laura and said she wants to go back❣️ So, it appears we will be returning clients - if She will have us🦮🐕🐕🦺🐩🐶”
“As always, Rut and her husband took excellent care of Memphis. They are kind, reliable, and truly attentive, and it’s clear how much they genuinely care. We had complete peace of mind knowing Memphis was in such loving and capable hands. We are so thankful for them and highly recommend their care to anyone looking for someone they can fully trust.”
“Christine was great with my dog Murphy! We did a quick meet and greet prior to my trip and once on the trip she sent photos and updates of how he was doing. She was super flexible with pickup time and Murphy seemed to have a great time with her. Would definitely book with her again in the future!”
“Katherin is the absolute best!!!! She went absolutely above and beyond caring for Hugo. She took him on lots of fun adventures everyday, including to nearby coffee shops, dog parks, and long walks to Georgetown. She also attended to an unexpected medical need and sent detailed updates everyday, which gave me such peace of mind. Thank you Katherin, Hugo was so lucky to have such a fun vacation with you!”
“This was Winston’s second time staying with Supon. I hate leaving Winston and Supon is the only one I trust leaving him with! He sends lots of adorable picture updates and takes the pups on lots of walks. Winston will be sleeping for days :)”
“Anne Marie took such great care of Danny, she was patient and kind to him as a senior dog and just loved on him! I will definitely be asking Anne Marie to care for him again when I need it.”
“This was my first time using Rover, and I was honestly a little nervous. My wife and I had to travel, and we needed someone to take care of our two dogs. Sunny was the best option we found, and I’m so glad we chose her. She was very communicative throughout the entire stay, and it was clear that she treated both of our dogs with so much love and care. She made us feel comfortable and gave us peace of mind while we were away. She has definitely earned a new loyal customer. The next time we need a pet sitter, I’ll feel much more confident knowing our dogs are staying with Sunny. I highly recommend her!”

“Nothing but praise for Jane! I had to leave on short notice and Jane lucky accepted to watch my Oreo. She was professional while also showing your love of animals. She kept incontact with me the whole time and sent me a few photos of my little guy. I think Oreo was a little sad to leave because he enjoyed himself so much! Highly recommend Jane for any and all! Thank you so much for taking care of my kitty!”
“Alexandra provided excellent care for our two kitties while we were away for an extended period. From the start, she was exceptionally communicative and diligent in meeting us and taking notes on our boys, and while we were away, provided great photos and detailed notes each day that let us rest assured they were in good hands. Our kitties took to Alexandra immediately, and it felt great to know they were getting treats, pets, and play while we were gone. We would absolutely work with her again any time!”

She took care of him for a week and she was very communicative with me and provided me daily updates of her schedule which I so appreciated!

“Emily is such a great sitter she is accomidating and understadning. Winston loves going there and once he realizes where he is doing he tries pulling me to her building. Safe to say he likes his day care time with Emily”
“McKinley was amazing. Our dog had a wonderful time, and was well taken care of. She communicated throughout the day, provided photos and gave our dog the attention he needed throughout the day.”
“Had a great experience with Fengyuan providing daycare for Marigold! Got lots of photo updates during the day and she made a new friend out of Chicago 🤗”
“Mac has been an absolute lifesaver! I had to return to the office for 5 days for the first time since I got my dog, Ham, and let's just say he's a little clingy. A lot clingy. Mac has been able to give Ham all the love and attention he needs, and I know Ham loves it at Mac's by how excited he gets when we turn the corner to Mac's street each morning. I am so relieved that I found someone who loves Ham as much as I do. Mac is really the best.”
“Vanessa was absolutely wonderful with Niní! She took care of him for three days while I was on a business trip, and he clearly adored her. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and very accommodating with my changing schedule. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I highly recommend Vanessa and would happily book her again!”
“Linde was fantastic. Our normally anxious pup was calm and happy when we picked him up. He seemed to have had a great time hanging out with his new friend. We appreciated the photos Linde took too!”
“Joey did a fantastic job to take great care of my 7-year-old labrador who had a bit of separation anxiety. I am so grateful with Joey to accept the last minute request after a brief meet up. I would love to use his services again and highly recommend him. Thanks again Joey for your flexibility and patience with Meimei!”
“Daniel has been an amazing dogsitter for Lenny. He's already been looking after him on specific days for a few weeks in a row, and Lenny is always so happy with him. He's also helped us a lot with Lenny's socialization, which we really appreciate. He always sends us feedback on how the day went, which gives us a lot of peace of mind. We feel very comfortable and confident leaving Lenny with him. We highly recommend him!”
“Paula was phenomenal with our 4 month old puppy—she maintained her at-home schedule / routine with care and our pup was excited to see her for day 2. Paula is attentive, responsive, and cares for pups as if they are her own. Cannot recommend her enough—we hope she’s available next time we need someone to watch our floofer.”

“Jason agreed to watch Charlie, our senior citizen dog, at the last minute. Charlie seemed to have a really great time with him. When my wife picked him up, he had a real pep in his step, which is always a good sign. Jason was very responsive, flexible and understanding. We will certainly use him again.”

About: I’ve trained, walked, and took care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ll carry every experience into my work with you. Looking forward to it. Pet Care fits easily into my routine at the moment. I am a recent college graduate and am on the job hunt. So, if I don’t have an interview, you’ll be my number one priority. I like to get to know a dog to determine their needs. Every dog is different. After working with many different dogs through dog shows or dog training, I’ve met different personalities and know how to get along.

When it comes to dog walking, I also love to make sure dogs are not only getting their exercise in, but experiencing new surroundings on their walk.

While Im not offering services for room and board, I do live in a pet friendly apartment with pet friendly amenities, if there is a need to bring your pet home with me.

About: I am a true Capitol Hill dog lover and I have always had a strong passion for animals, mostly for dogs. I have been caring for dogs since I was child, taking care of my mother’s beloved shitzu. Taking care of her helped me acquire basic canine behavior and taught me the responsibility of taking care of a pet. Most recently I raised my own best friend, Gelato an English Bulldog. I gained my breeder experience with Gelato and cared for her and her 6 puppies, until they were rehomed at 8 months. I enjoy taking long walks, which I consider the ultimate stress reliever and best way to exercise. I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I have 20 years of experience in the customer service field and enjoy striving to provide the best experience to my clients. In my personal time I am spending time with my 2 little girls teaching them how to play sports, and of course how to be loving pet owners. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! I’m currently working part time and will be available to walk most pets during early mornings hours during the week and mid day and evenings during the weekend. I definitely would like to know your pets temperament, and what might scare them. I know they will feel most comfortable at home but if they are with me, I’d like to keep a calm, pet friendly setting for them to be comfortable in.
“Joseph was very communicative and shared pictures of our pups with us daily. He followed all directions we gave him and made sure our pups feel at home under his care. I would recommend Joseph as a pet sitter and would entrust him with watching our pups again in the future. Thanks for taking care of our babies!”
“Marcel came back to me well loved and cared for by Shanilka and her family! Marcel was very relaxed at returning home. Thank you for the pictures that you sent. Great thanks for your flexibility on our drop off and pick up time when our plane was late! I especially loved that Marcel slept with your mom and ignored the bed. He had a wonderful team to care for him. I will definitely use your services again. Thanks again❤️🙏🤗”
“Max was an amazing sitter for my dog, Kali! Kali had been spayed a week prior to her 4 day stay with Max, and had already ripped her stitches open once, so it was critical that Max made sure she stayed safe and kept her cone on. Max was unbelievably attentive and did an excellent job with her! He sent multiple updates with photos each day, had extra treats and toys for her, took her on multiple walks per day, and even did some basic training with her to make sure she could be left home by herself for brief periods. I would not hesitate to book Max again!”

“Katie was very accommodating. Since this was my first time using the service, I did not know what to expect. She kept in touch throughout my fur babies stay and sent pictures. She asked questions and gave me an opportunity to ask questions as well.”
