“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Laurie and Richard helped me last minute when I struggled to find a dog sitter on a holiday weekend. They were also very accommodating to my travel schedule which was a little flux. My dog can be rather anxious but she quickly warmed up to them. The fact that they have a house with a yard was also a benefit to my pup! They also are true animal lovers and very patient with each animals needs and making sure they are comfortable. I would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of a pet sitter!”
“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!”
“Kerstyn was great. I had peace of mind knowing our dog was in good hands. She was attentive to our dog’s needs and did a great job mingling our dog with the others. We will be booking again the next time we need a sitter!”
“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!”
“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❤️🙏🤗”
“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🦮🐕🐕🦺🐩🐶”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“We are truly thankful to Michael for taking care of our dog while we traveled. She clearly had a great time and we appreciated the regular messages and photos of walks during her stay. Thanks Michael!”
“Emme had such a great time. Sabrina was communicative and flexible which really helped us out! Emme loved going to the dog park, playing with Murphy and snuggling up! Thank you guys.”
“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.”
“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!”

“Sarah took the best care of our cat Tilly when we were traveling. She sent us pictures and updates each day and spent extra time to help her adjust to us being gone. You can tell she loves animals and we plan to use her again.”
“Heather was great with Sophie - the little updates and pictures of her gave me a peace of mind while I was away. It was my first time being away from her for an extended period of time so I did fret a bit! Sophie is typically afraid of strangers, but she seemed to have warmed up to Heather (slowly as cats are wont to do!) which is something I would like for Sophie. I'm pleased to say that her water and food dish seemed clean and her kitty litter was clean too. Thank you Heather!”
“Becca was amazing with both of my cats! I really appreciated how much she catered to their different needs and was able to make more shy cat feel comfortable enough to make an appearance and my more social cat entertained with her favorite things! Her communication and pics were just what I needed to give me peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend!”
About: Since rescuing a stray cat in 2021, I have been responsible for every aspect of her daily care, including feeding, cleaning the litter box, grooming, administering medication when needed, and monitoring her health and behavior. Caring for a rescued cat has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to earn the trust of shy or anxious cats. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I always strive to provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where they feel comfortable and cared
“My cats seemed to really like Larissa! We were away for a week and upon arrival home the litter boxes were clean as was the kitchen with their used and washed wet food bowls.”
“Erin came by to see my kitty a couple times while I was on vacation, and took such good care of him! She cuddled with him and made sure his litter, water, and food were taken care of! I know my kitty loved having her as his companion while I was gone. She was easy to communicate with! I would certainly recommend Erin for your pet sitting needs!”
“hillary did a great job with my three kitties! :) she also went above and beyond and helped me out with my litter robot that was having problems. would definitely trust her and book her in the future!”

About: In my years of catsitting and caring for cats of friends or family, I've learned that cats can be very particular. I focus on building trust and bringing a sense of calmness to the household. I also know all cats are different, and I've handled them all. I'm committed to getting to know your cat specifically so I can tailor their care to their needs as well as yours.
“First time leaving this particular pet with a sitter. Couldn’t be happier with the care and attention Jana provided! And beyond being lovely with my pet, she was also very nice and flexible when my schedule changed.”
“Julia is the best! Steve was so happy to see her today and really appreciated her flexibility with my changing work schedule + all the logistical details. I loved the updates and look forward to booking again!”
“Audrey was amazing and saved my trip last minute when I had a cancellation. When I came home my cat was relaxed with all litter boxes cleaned. I cannot recommend Audrey enough! Fully trust her and look forward to my next booking with her.”
About: I have owned pets for the last 15 years, both cats and dogs. I am available any day, any time for walks or drop-in visits! I am comfortable walking aggressive dogs. I absolutely love animals, and will provide the best care for your pets! I am available any day, any time - my schedule is open to drop in or go for a walk anytime you need, even multiple times per day! I will honor whatever advice or instructions provided, and I am comfortable/experienced in dealing with shy or aggressive pets. First and foremost, safety is important. I will always take the utmost care in making sure your pets are responsibly cared for and I will never put them in a risky or dangerous situation.
“Reliable and kind. Paris showed up at the scheduled times to feed our 4 cats. Even our shyest cat came out to eat with her. Paris accommodated the shyness and made sure she ate. She provided plenty of pictures and updates. She even braved winter weather to help us and our cats, handling the litter boxes and playing with the cats in addition to feeding. Paris replied promptly for a short notice booking on a Sunday to start on Monday evening (due to a death in the family). Her responsiveness, kindness, and reliability helped make a stressful trip less stressful. We would be happy to book with her again when needed. One of our cats has special feeding needs and Paris provided for that reliably.”
About: I've taken care of cats for over 15 years, and have experience with kittens, elderly cats, outdoor cats, and indoor cats! I've had experience caring for cats overnight or checking in on cats during the day, and am also skilled in delivering medication and trimming nails.
“Catherine went above and beyond for our drop-in visits! I was so happy to leave George in good hands, with great walks and playdates with her dog Winston! Thank you so much for everything you do!!”

“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 🤗”
“Julia was amazing! Remi (golden puppy) had a great time at her place and enjoyed her other dogs. Also Julia did a great job of sending photos through out the day! Definitely would recommend.”
“Lee was incredible with Edith. She handled her slight anxiety like a pro and was flexible when we needed to shift our timing a little. We'll definitely be booking with Lee again.”
“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”
“My doggie had a wonderful time with Asma and her pooch Mica! She was super considerate of his idiosyncrasies, and planned out a wonderful, well balanced, day care day for him.”
“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!”
“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.”
About: Hi! I'm Erin, and I'd love the opportunity to care for your furry family member. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I make it a priority to provide personalized care that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'm happy to accommodate what makes them happiest. I'll treat your pet with the same patience, attention, and affection that I give my own. I'm reliable, communicative, and committed to giving you peace of mind. You can expect regular photo and video updates, prompt communication, and plenty of love and attention for your pet every step of the way. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged best friend! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. As a dog owner, I'm used to planning my day around walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention and exercise. I work with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable care, stay consistent with your pet's routine, and give them the time and attention they deserve. Whether it's an early morning walk, a midday drop-in, or evening companionship, I'm happy to accommodate your pet's needs while keeping you updated with photos and messages along the way. I always prioritize keeping pets comfortable by following the routine they're used to. Before each booking, I like to learn about their feeding schedule, exercise needs, favorite activities, medications (if applicable), and any special instructions or behaviors to be aware of. In a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the home itself. I'll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and lots of affection while keeping your home clean and secure. I also provide regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where they can relax, play, and feel like part of the family. I ensure they have regular potty breaks, walks, meals, and plenty of love and supervision throughout their stay. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and cared for, while giving pet parents confidence that their furry family member is in good hands.
“Haley was amazing with our little puppy!!! We couldn’t have asked for anyone better to watch him, she had so many updates throughout the day! We couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Catherine took great care of Alfie! She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day, and he didn't want to leave when we came to pick him up. We would definitely book with her again.”
“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.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 12 years and can’t imagine life without them. I grew up with dogs and, at 18, became the full-time caregiver for two lovable Springer Spaniels. I cared for them through every stage of life—including their senior years—gaining experience with medication, mobility support, and lots of extra TLC. As a teacher, I bring patience, responsibility, and strong communication to everything I do—including pet care. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and deeply committed to making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. Whether they need playtime, snuggles, or senior care, I’m here to help! As a teacher, I finish work around 3 PM on weekdays, which gives me plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings for drop-ins, walks, or pet sitting. I’m also available for boarding on weekends and school holidays. My schedule is consistent, and I always make sure your pet gets the attention, care, and love they deserve—whether it’s a weekday visit or a weekend stay! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether caring for them in your home or mine, I create a calm, loving environment where they feel safe and relaxed. I follow your instructions carefully—feeding, routines, medication—and keep you updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. My home is pet-friendly and quiet, perfect for weekend boarding. Plus, I live close to a dog park, so your pup can enjoy safe, fun playtime and socialization. I always make sure every walk or visit is secure, stress-free, and tailored to your pet’s needs.
About: I’m a caring and responsible pet owner with over 2 years of hands-on experience taking care of my own cats every day.

I have also helped friends care for their pets while they were away. I know that every pet has a different personality, so I’m patient with shy or anxious animals and happy to give energetic pets the attention and exercise they need.

About: My past work as a veterinary technician has provided me with years of experience caring for diverse breeds, specializing in coordinating complex feeding schedules and managing senior pets with health needs.

About: I have a cat back home who is 8 years old, so I understand daily care, patience, and responsibility. I also volunteered at a cat café and an animal shelter for three years, where I helped with feeding, cleaning, socializing cats, and basic care. I’m calm, attentive, and always focused on pets’ comfort and safety.^^ I’m currently a graduate student so I can give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship.

“Salma responded to my short-notice request quickly, which I greatly appreciated as it was for only a few days of dog-walking. I'd had some surgery on my leg and it was difficult to walk for the first few days. Salma came three times daily and was very kind and patient with my elderly dog. I would not hesitate to hire her again.”

About: I’ve jumped at every opportunity to take care of friend’s and family members’ dogs since I was in elementary school! I’ve taken care of dogs with varying medical needs and across a range of breeds. I truly find any time spent with animals a gift, and I’m excited to begin my journey on Rover and help take care of yours. I am a teacher on summer break, so my availability is more than usual! I can walk dogs or drop in between 9:30 am and 12 pm or between 2:30 pm and 7 pm. However, beginning the last week of August, I will only be available after 4 pm due to my full-time job. I aim to begin fostering animals soon, but my residence is currently pet free, so I’ll have time to focus on your fur babies! I have experience with dogs across a spectrum of needs and have experience orally providing medication. As a teacher and dog-lover, I am patient and will work to create a safe environment that is attuned to the needs of your pet(s).
About: I grew up taking care of three dogs usually at a time. My family loves dogs, so we always had multiple puppies living with us at a time! After moving out, my roommate had a golden retriever, who most of my photos are with, that I absolutely adore! I am able to provide multiple walks for dogs a day and enjoy playing with puppies/can even take them to local dog parks for you! Typically I do doggie check ins and walks but will occasionally do overnight dog sitting as well. I am good with multiple dogs at a time and love all dogs! Please reach out if you have any questions! I usually work from home, aside from 2 days a week, so pet care fits pretty smoothly into my daily routine. Multiple walks is very easy for me as I am usually around and available! Pet safety is huge for me not only ensuring they are physically safe but also making sure they feel safe and comfortable with me and their surroundings as well.
“Katy was able to wrangle Sable’s puppy energy into a great walk. Sable and her sister Cinder immediately felt comfortable around her, and Sable came back ready for a nap. Thanks, Katy! We will see you again.”
About: I'm not just another dog walker or pet sitter — I'm your reliable neighborhood neighbor who’s already the go-to person in my 10-story NW DC apartment building for everything from quick walks to overnight stays (and yes, I handle both dogs and cats with ease!). What really makes me different is my background as a recently retired Special Education teacher. That means I bring serious patience, structure, and a knack for reading behavior to every pet I care for. Whether it’s helping a energetic young pup learn polite leash manners, crate training basics, or simple commands during our walks and playtime — or giving gentle, attentive care to senior dogs and cats who need slower paces, extra cuddles, or help with mobility and medication — I’m genuinely good at meeting each pet exactly where they are. I grew up with dogs and cats, so I’m comfortable with all personalities and ages. I focus on making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away — with consistent routines, plenty of affection, and that extra layer of responsibility that comes from years of working with kids who needed thoughtful, individualized support. In short: You get a sitter who’s dependable, experienced with all life stages of pets, and truly enjoys the work. Your furry (or not-so-furry) family member will get the kind of calm, attentive care that makes coming home even sweeter. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine! Since I’m recently retired, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I live right in a 10-story apartment building in NW DC, so I’m already here and can easily pop down for midday walks, quick drop-ins, or overnight stays without any commute hassle. A typical week for me includes several regular dog walks and cat visits for neighbors in the building. I genuinely enjoy starting my day with a good walk or ending it with some playtime and cuddles. It keeps me active, social, and smiling — plus it gives me that wonderful sense of responsibility I loved from my teaching days. Whether it’s a quick 30-minute walk around the neighborhood, a full night of house sitting, or daily check-ins while you’re traveling, fitting pet care into my schedule is easy and something I truly look forward to. I’m available most days and evenings, and I’m happy to work around your needs! I provide all pet care in your home only, so your pets stay in their familiar environment where they feel safest and most comfortable. For dogs, I will only consider bringing them to my house on very rare occasions — and only after I’ve gotten to know the dog well and we both agree it’s the right fit. All cat care happens exclusively in your home. In your home, I follow your exact routines for feeding, walks (for dogs), playtime, litter box care, medications, and more. I’m very mindful about safety: keeping doors and windows locked, using secure leashes when needed, and treating your space with complete respect. As a retired Special Education teacher, I’m patient, observant, and highly responsible. I treat every pet and every home with the care they deserve. You can trust that your furry family member will be in safe, loving hands.
About: I grew up with rescue mutts and herding breed dogs that need lots of exercise, mental stimulation, and training so I am familiar with high energy breeds.

I'm available mornings and afternoons to spend time with your pets. I'm between jobs at the moment, so my schedule is very flexible and I'm eager to fill that with time with your pup! I love to take long walks, and enjoy parks and trails if your dog likes to go on short hikes. I have a fenced in front and back/side yard with grass, and enough room to throw a ball if they come over for a play date.

“Julia literally gave our dog an extra cashmere sweater she had to keep him warm on his walks in the snow! She is incredible and has the biggest heart! Every morning Banx waits for her by the door- he can’t wait for his walks!”
About: I love pets because I cherish the special bond between a human and a pet even when none of them speak the same language :) I have had a cat for 8 years and could watch friends dogs for over a year I really enjoy walking with a dog because it makes me feel zen and happy! I currently have a part time and remote job, so I have a flexible schedule. I can easily plan my day around walks, feeding, and spending time with pets.

“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.”

“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❤️🙏🤗”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“We are truly thankful to Michael for taking care of our dog while we traveled. She clearly had a great time and we appreciated the regular messages and photos of walks during her stay. Thanks Michael!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Mallory and Max were so wonderful with our pup, Nora! They took care of her for 2 and half weeks while we were out of town. Nora got along so well with their dog, Argos, and she came back so happy!”
“Evan and his wife stepped in at the very last minute to take care of Kobi for the weekend - and not only did they agree, but they were so enthusiastic it felt like I was doing them a favor and not the other way around! Communication was great with check ins during the day and drop off/pick up went smoothly. So grateful to have found them!”
“Aashna and Sidhanth were great! They’re were very responsive and accommodating when I had to adjust the schedule. They sent pictures and updates twice a day. Will definitely be using them again!”
“Harley was so happy to go back to Jennifer and her wonderful family for a long weekend. He gets showered with love by Jennifer, her sweet daughter Ramsey, and Grandmom Anne! I’m so happy he gets a happy easy-going doggy friend in Khali, and experience with Pursey the cat. It’s so nice knowing that he is so beautifully cared for. Jennifer was extra kind this time, giving him medicine and more walks since he couldn’t run around her spacious front yard due to a healing injury. We love getting updates and adorable pictures throughout his time there. I’m not sure Harley really wanted to leave!”
“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!”
“Haydenn was super responsive and wonderful with our 10 year old dog, Fern. We had to make a change in our plans at the last minute, and he was very accommodating. We would definitely use him again in the future!”
“Emma was one of the best sitters we have ever had for our dog Wilson - truly a gem. She provided updates on how he was doing each day along with pictures (which was the best). If Emma had any questions, she would ask and she was always very responsive. We appreciated her help so much and would recommend / love to use her again for future!”
“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!”
“Ewelina was an excellent sitter for my dog Molly. She was very communicative with pictures, and handled her finicky food attitude! She gave her pills daily and I came home to a happy dog. Thank you, Ewelina!!! Next time I travel I’ll definitely look for Ewelina to care for Molly!”
