“Savannah took such great care of my cat Zena while I was away on travel. She sent so many pictures and updates, and followed all my care instructions, it gave me peace of mind. Was very happy to see Zena so well taken care of. Will definitely book Savannah again for future sittings!”

“Vanessa did a wonderful job caring for our 2 kitties. I came home to happy kitties and a clean place! I would highly, highly recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for help.”


About: Grew up with Lily, my "sister" aka my mom's ragdoll Calico. I've helped bathe her, feed her, fish her toys out from under the dresser, and entice her into a carrier for vet visits. I think the best experience I've got in caring for Lily is learning to know what she wants, like when she sits patiently in front of her bowl. It means I must pet her while she eats!

“Manasha was absolutely excellent! She consistently updated us with photos and personalized messages. She is such a kind spirit, and we are so thankful to have her develop a relationship with our pets!!”

“While I didn’t actually get to meet Edmond and Nafis, they were very easy and pleasant to work with. They were also accommodating when my trip got unexpectedly extended. I got detailed summaries of each visit and lots of pictures which always puts my mind at ease! I will definitely be booking them again in the future.”


“Andrea was wonderful! Her pictures of my sweet cat were great and she went above and beyond to ensure she was well cared for. I would strongly recommend and I look forward to booking again.”

“I loved having Katarzyna take care of my cat while I was away in a work trip. Despite the last minute request, she took the time to meet up before I left to meet my finicky kitty. She treated my anxious cat with the perfect amount of care and respect. She kept me updated with plenty of photos and messages. I will definitely rebook with her in the future!”

“Nina was phenomenal and I could not recommend her more! She took great care of my cat, and he warmed right up to her. Nina was very communicative, attentive, and gave detailed updates. If you are looking for a great sitter, Nina should be one of the first you consider!”


“DeShayla is an amazing sitter! She provided so much care and love to my cats, who are naturally shy but warmed up to her quickly! I will definitely be contacting her again in the future!”

“Callen did a wonderful job taking care of our cat Willow! She was very responsive and communicative and sent plenty of photos, and Willow took right to her. We’ll definitely book with her again!”

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.

About: I've been a dog person my whole life. Our family has shared our home with everything from standard poodles to an American Eskimo, so I've handled big personalities, high-maintenance coats, smart dogs who need a job, and gentle seniors who need patience and a soft place to land. We recently lost our beloved standard poodle, and while we're not ready for another dog of our own yet, we have a lot of love with nowhere to go. We'd be thrilled to pour it into yours. Your dog will be our only pet, which means undivided attention: no competing for the couch, the yard, or the treats. Speaking of the yard, it's fully enclosed, so there's plenty of room to sniff, play, and stretch out safely, and we're an easy walk from a nearby park for longer outings. Our home also includes a dog-adoring 7-year-old who has grown up around dogs and knows how to be calm and respectful with them, and all interactions are supervised. By day I run a national nonprofit (from our home), so I'm organized, responsive, and used to being trusted with things that matter to other people. You'll get prompt replies, photo updates, and a sitter who actually follows your instructions, whether that's a medication schedule, a specific feeding routine, or a nightly belly rub quota. I work from home, so your dog won't be left alone for long stretches. My day has a natural rhythm that suits most dogs: a morning walk or yard time before I start work, a midday break for a potty trip and some play, and a longer walk to the park in the late afternoon once the workday winds down. In between, your dog is welcome to nap at my feet, keep an eye on the squirrels from the window, or supervise my Zoom calls. Evenings and weekends are family time, which means more play, more attention, and more couch cuddles. I'm happy to follow your dog's existing schedule for meals, medications, and bedtime, since I know routine is what helps most dogs settle into a new place quickly. Your dog's safety and comfort come first in our home. We have a fully enclosed yard for supervised play and potty breaks, and we're a short walk from several parks for longer outings, always on leash unless you've told me otherwise. I do a quick check of gates and latches before every outing, and dogs are never left unattended outside. Inside, your dog has the run of our home and is welcome on the furniture unless you'd prefer they stay off. We've never crated our own dogs, but if a crate is what makes your pup feel safe and settled, I'm happy to use one. Just bring it along with their bed, food, and anything else that smells like home.
“Sung and his family did a great job watching my dog for the afternoon. Communication was very good and they sent photo updates throughout the day. Would definitely use again.”


About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. With over two years of hands-on pet care experience, I provide every dog with patience, attention, and lots of affection. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, so I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether it’s an energetic puppy, a senior dog, or a shy companion, I treat every pet like family and make sure they receive the love, exercise, and care they deserve while you’re away. My goal is for both you and your dog to feel completely at ease. I offer a flexible schedule and do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine. Whether it’s an early morning walk, a midday visit, or evening care, I’m committed to providing reliable, punctual, and loving care whenever you need it. . Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions, keep fresh food and water available, provide plenty of playtime and exercise, and make sure your pet feels comfortable and loved. I treat every dog with the same care and respect as if they were my own.
“Thank you Frida for stepping in at the last minute and helping me w my 3 year old toy poodle Apollo. He was totally comfortable w you and returned a happy boy. I so appreciate your help, including working w me when my timing shifted a bit.”

“Izzy and Brian are fantastic sitters. Very accommodating with drop off and pick up times, which is great for day trips (esp if we hit bad traffic or end up leaving later than originally planned). They send photos and videos regularly! Dzov LOVES his friend Jax and Ziggy and is always pooped out from playing so hard with those two all day. They're always my first go-to for day care/overnight stays because they're reliable, friendly, and can handle my big doggo!”
About: I’m a huge dog lover and would love to take care of your baby! I grew up with/around dogs and have been pet sitting my friends’ dogs for years. My dog, Junie, is an easygoing girl who loves long walks and playtime just as much as she loves cuddling on the couch! We’d love to have your dog join us for fun and relaxation! My dog takes some medicine so I’m comfortable providing all sorts of medicines to your dog and accommodating for any special needs they may have. I always send lots of updates and photos cuz I know how important to me when I’m away from my pup! I work from home full time so your dog won’t be alone all day. I usually take my dog Junie out at least once during the work day but we can adjust based on your pup’s needs! I want your pet to feel at home! He/she will be allowed on the furniture as long as you allow that at home (don’t want to build any bad habits 😊). Junie and I love long walks before and after work and we’d be happy to have your dog join us. There is a dog park about a 10 min walk away that we got to pretty frequently as well. If your baby is more of a couch potato, we can make that work too! My dog, Junie, is very go with the flow and will be happy to do whatever your dog wants to do!

“Megan was very attentive and a great communicator. Our 1 year old border collie stayed with her for doggy day care and he had a great time and came home happy and fulfilled. We highly recommend her care and will definitely reach out to her again!”


“Rosina was lovely and communicative about the day’s happenings. It was great having her watch our dog while we were seeing all the sights in DC on our trip. Highly recommended!”

“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”

“Marta took great care of Uni, who was understandably anxious as this was his first doggy day care experience! She’s very accommodating of my schedule change and responded promptly to my messages. Thanks Marta :)”

“Matthew was great watching my pup Willa for a last minute doggy day care! He was kind and welcoming during the meet and greet and during her stay, and sent pictures throughout the day to keep me updated. Willa snuggled right up to them for some naps, which is always a sign she feels comfortable, safe, and happy. Will definitely be reaching out again in the future!”


“Julie and Ken provide a loving, welcoming environment. They treated Abby and Max like one of their own family. Abby and Max enjoyed their time from the very beginning. It was a great experience for everyone. We would certainly use them again.”


About: I’ve always had pets and a garden at home: dogs, cats, birds, you name it. Even lately, while living in a city apartment, I’ve had a female Shepherd, and I’ve also looked after dogs for friends and others who entrusted them to my care. I have plenty of availability to look after your pet right now; just let me know in advance so I can make arrangements, and share the details so I can provide the best possible care for your pet. I live in an apartment with no other pets at the moment, so everything is clean and safe for them. Plus, the surrounding areas are perfect for walking—there’s the Mall and The Wharf—places where they can walk and socialize with other pets.
About: I’ve been around pets pretty much my whole life. I grew up with animals and had my own dog (Lucky) until he passed away from old age, so I know how much a dog really becomes part of the family. Since I was a teenager I’ve also pet sat for family and friends, so I’ve had plenty of practice with all kinds of personalities and energy levels. I currently work from home, so I’m around throughout the day to give your dog plenty of attention, playtime, and regular walks, not just quick check ins here and there. I’m flexible with boarding and house sitting and can build a routine around what your dog is used to. I live in an apartment in Navy Yard, just walking distance from a dog park, so there’s always a good spot nearby for exercise and playtime. I don’t have any pets of my own right now, which means your dog gets my full attention with no other animals to compete with.
“This was my puppy’s first time with a sitter but Christian was awesome easing his anxiety and taking great care of him. She’s very responsive, reliable , and extremely patient ! I’ll definitely be using her again.”


About: My parents owned a doggy daycare and boarding place for dogs - I would watch over 40 dogs and ensure dogs never got into fights. I also have pet sat my neighbor’s dogs and cats and did drop in visits. And back in NJ, I always visit and look after my parent’s dog Bailey who is a yellow lab! I have a part time job, but I am available to do boarding, house sitting, and daycare from Friday to Monday! Dog walking and drop-in visits are anytime except 10 AM to 2 PM during weekdays. Side note: I live with a female roommate and my boyfriend likes to sleep over on weekends. Both of them are comfortable around dogs and cats. I would love to meet you and your pet beforehand to get to know you both and learn what needs to be done! In general, for client visits, I will always check in with your pet by giving them pets and/or scratches if they prefer. I’ll check to make sure they have enough food and water or feed your pet right away. After, I’ll go on a short or long walk for dogs. And of course, extra pets/scratches once your pet returns phone and double checking that the door/house is locked.

About: Hi, I’m N’Dia! 🐾 Hi, I’m N’Dia—aka your dog’s future BFF and belly-rub supplier! 🐾 I grew up as an only child with Giant Schnauzers and Rottweilers who were basically like siblings, so I’ve been fluent in “animal” since day one. I started pet sitting and walking in college as a side job, but quickly realized there’s nothing better than hanging out with furry friends. Whether your pup loves long walks, endless games of fetch, or just a solid cuddle session on the couch, I’m here to make sure they feel loved, safe, and entertained while you’re away. With me, your pet gets all the snuggles, scratches, and silly conversations they could ever want. 💜 Can’t wait to meet your four-legged family member! I’ve got plenty of time and energy to spoil your pup! 🐾 Walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just hanging out—your furry friend will have a built-in bestie while you’re away. I’m flexible and love keeping tails wagging! When caring for pets, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable—whether in my home or yours. At my home, I’m lucky to live at The Wharf in a pet-friendly building that has its own dog park, perfect for playtime and socializing. I’m also just a short walk from the National Mall, which makes for fun and scenic walks to keep pups happy, active, and stimulated. In my clients’ homes, I follow their routines closely to ensure consistency, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or cuddle time. I believe pets thrive when their routines are respected, so I bring plenty of patience, love, and attention to detail to make sure they feel at ease while you’re away.

“Simply awesome!! Emilee was super helpful and knowledgeable. She met my dog Hank it was an instant connection! So happy to have found a great reliable person I can trust.”

About: I’ve had cats ever since I can remember. My family has taken in countless strays, raised kittens, and helped them find forever homes. My own cats are now 5 and 3 years old and the light of my life. I would love to help check in on your furry friend and spend time with them while you’re away! I can typically do drop ins early in the morning before work, or in the early evening after work! I’m quite flexible, although on weekends I may not be available. I want to provide you, your pet, and your home with the most reliable and respectful service. So please make sure to provide any necessary instructions ahead of time :)
About: I have dog sat for friends when they're out of town. I have watched my mom's cat for her whole life too. I love animals, I love playing with them, I love the excuse to get out for a walk, I love sitting with them, I love talking to them like they can understand what I'm saying. I genuinely enjoy hanging out with animals and care for them deeply. I work from home and have the flexibility to leave for a walk or run an errand whenever I need to. So if that means a 3 pm walk for your pup or a morning and evening feeding time for your pet, I'm here! I have a fenced in back yard, fenced in front balcony, and enclosed spaces throughout my home. I also have an open floor plan on the main level where I would feed your pet and hang out them mostly.
“Emily was amazing! She handled my last minute needs and was very accommodating. I highly recommend using her. She’s the best! Super friendly and playful with Roman. They had a great time together.”


“Ican't say enough good things about karima! She is incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and always go above and beyond to make sure my dog, Bruno is well-exercised and happy. I especially love the daily updates and photos they send during the walk, which gives me so much peace of mind while I'm at work."”

About: I have owned or cared for dogs my entire life. I’ve worked with poodle mixes, cavaliers, boxers, terriers, and labs just to name a few few. I am a full time pet caregiver right now, so I am available and flexible to work around your schedule to need your pets needs I live in an apartment; I will primarily care for your dog in your space or walking your pup. I enjoy taking dogs for long walks, to dog parks, or other spaces you prefer.
“Audrey and Christopher are AMAZING!!!! They took my booking kind of last minute, had amazing communication, brought poop bags, and walks my puppy over 2 miles in just an hour!!!! They’re the best and I will for sure be booking them again!!!”

“Katarzyna was super communicative and quickly responded to our last minute request (our usual walker cancelled last minute) she sent fantastic photos and made sure to ask all about our dog’s quirks. Highly recommend her if you need a solid walker”

About: I've walked, fed, loved, and taken care of dogs for close to 16 years, from pit bulls to huskies to poodles. If your dog needs a temporary friend, I'm your guy. Now, I have my dog-sized cat Figaro, who has known me for 7 years. Being a doting Cat Dad has prepared me well for making sure your cat gets the TLC they need! I work remotely full-time and am very mobile, always ready to drop in when needed or to sit in for extended periods. Maybe your buddy can even help me out with a spreadsheet or two. It's all about the details. Number one: food in the dish (as appropriate), water in the bowl. Nobody misses a meal or goes thirsty with me. Secondly, where are they? Are they on their cat tree, are they off to cause mischief, are they waiting on the couch to play? At all times, I have this information for safety and for optimal picture-time. I don't need the little guy to come out of his hiding spot, I just need to know he's safe.

“Jada and Naz walked our two poodle mixes at 10pm every night while my husband was out of town for 18 nights. One of our dogs is anxious and reactive, but they were able to work with her kindly and effectively. They had very good communication and were good-spirited even when it was raining.”

“This was my dog’s first walk with Youlee. My dog was nervous at first but when she came home she was so happy! Youlee was on time and sent lots of photos and videos. I’ll definitely hire her again.”

About: As a dog owner myself, I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and quirks. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes and energy levels. I’m especially experienced with larger dogs and enjoy long walks, playtime, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s routine and follow your instructions carefully so they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I am currently finishing up law school and have a relatively low workload this semester. I am extremely flexible both throughout the week and on weekends! I treat every pet like they’re my own and make their comfort and safety my priority. In your home, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medications if needed, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m respectful of your home and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you know how your pet is doing. For walks and drop-in visits, I focus on giving your dog a safe, enjoyable experience while following any instructions you provide about feeding, bathroom breaks, leash habits, or behavior. I’m happy to take the time to get to know each dog and adjust my approach to their individual personality and energy level.
“Rakel did an amazing job! She was so sweet, attentive, and professional. We have 2 pitbulls (who can be quite the handful) and she conquered the task effortlessly. I will 1000% rebook her!”

“Nina was amazing! She took my two dogs outside and made sure that they both went potty and then fed them dinner. She communicated with me and I felt really comfortable with her taking care of my dogs! I would definitely have her take care of my dogs again.”

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.
