“Rover Review My wife and I booked sitter services with Brian for our 3 year old Sheepadoodle, Cheyenne. As Rover newbies, we weren’t really sure what to expect and my wife was a little anxious about leaving our baby. Brian and Carly were extremely accommodating and agreed to have a meet and greet prior to Cheyenne’s stay—what an awesome couple! They welcomed Cheyenne into their home with open arms and that instantly put our minds at ease. We also had the pleasure of meeting their little boy Doc and his friend (name withheld for privacy), for which Cheyenne became fast friends. Several times a day, we received text updates on how Cheyenne was doing to include pics which we really appreciated. On pick-up day, Cheyenne was excited to see us as always but about an hour after being at home I could tell that she really enjoyed her stay because she got a little sad. That was quickly cured with a cup of Ben & Jerry’s Doggie, LOL! I honestly can’t say enough about the care and attention Cheyenne received during her stay. Moving forward, whenever we need a sitter and there’s availability, Cheyenne will be with Brian, Carly and Doc.”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Zulma. From the moment I walked into her house she made me feel completely at ease about leaving my dogs in her care. She asked thoughtful questions about their routines and treated them as if they were her own. Throughout my time away, she provided regular photos and videos, that brought me so much peace of mind. It was clear they were happy, well cared for and completely comfortable with her. I was able to actually enjoy my trip knowing they were in capable hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and generally caring I will highly recommend Zulma. I’m so grateful to have found her.”
“Aaron and Tia will forever be my go to person for pet-sitting. I have a 4 month old French bulldog and he seems to be at home with them and I love how they communicate and send videos and pictures of my fur baby while I'm away. They definitely are educated about pets and what is needed, because they educated me about how to train my puppy. They are very welcoming and family/pet oriented.”
“Terez watched Reese for us during a quick weekend getaway. She was very flexible with our schedule in accommodating a pick up and drop off for us since we lived so conveniently close. Reese felt right at home with her. We will definitely use Terez again!”
“I recently had a last-minute Fourth of July trip, and Tamara graciously accepted my booking request on very short notice. Not only did she care for my oldest dog, but she also welcomed my youngest, who can be a bit of a handful. With patience and kindness, Tamara gave both of my girls exceptional care. She allowed my youngest the freedom to adjust at her own pace and, amazingly, helped her become comfortable around cats for the very first time! I never would have imagined she could calmly interact with one, but Tamara made it happen. Throughout their stay, Tamara maintained excellent communication and sent me plenty of photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. She also has a wonderful family who helped shower my girls with love and attention, making them feel right at home. Tamara is responsible, attentive, compassionate, and truly caring. She goes above and beyond, and she is worth her weight in gold. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets. My girls will absolutely be back when I’m in town! ❤️”
“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!”
“India was absolutely the best caretaker of my boy for the weekend! She sent frequent updates and really treated him like her own. Even sent him home with a goodie bag of treats! I am looking forward to booking her again!”
“Elizabeth was my first sitter using Rover and she will be my go-to from now on! She took great care of my love and sent lots of photos while I was away. I'm very grateful to have found Elizabeth!”
“Matthew with family is very accommodating and will entertain your dog for a great price! They went swimming and on long walks. Executed Ozzie’s food plan and supplements no problem. They sleep in the bed with their dogs which my dog liked. I’ll be a return customer if they’ll have us.”
“Kim cared for my pup as her own. She was very attentive to him and cared about his feelings. This was my pup’s first time with Kim so he was a little nervous. She cared for his every need and made sure he felt loved and comfortable in her care. Kim made sure that my pup had plenty of fresh air and had lots of attention, attention to the point where she slept near him so he would not feel lonesome. My pup was nice and calm when I picked him up which let me know Kim loved on him as I do. I will book again with Kim. Thank you Kim.”
“Lia was highly responsive, helped us out in a bind on short notice, was incredibly accommodating, sent several helpful updates, sent a lot of cute and reassuring photos and gave me a sense of ease immediately. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”
“Joe was great and we would be happy to leave Dakota in his care again. He was super flexible and provided daily updates which were really appreciated. Dakota made some dog friends and seemed to enjoy his lengthy visit. Joe lives near a wooded area so it was nice for Dakota to be a little bit out of the chaos of the city.”
“Definitely appreciate the care you provided for my Coco. Enjoyed seeing the daily updates. Your care of my fur baby was great! We thank you so much! ☺️?”
“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.”
“Rae cared for Kenzo with so much love and attention while I was away on my business trip. I’m deeply grateful for the peace of mind she gave me, knowing he was safe and happy for all four nights!”

“Heather did a wonderful job checking in on my cat while I was away on vacation. She showed up on time, spent time playing with her, and made sure she was properly fed and taken care of. I also appreciated her thoughtful updates and photos!”
“Kalani took great care of my very active cat and my sensitive cat. She was communicative and sent regular updates and photos. I would not hesitate to ask Kalani to watch them again!”
“Definitely an excellent sister for my kitties. Vivi took great care of our two kitties they were happy to have her around. She was caring, professional, and give as the peace we needed while we were gone. Thank you again Viví.”
“Melissa was so wonderful and we couldn’t be happier! We were going out of town for the weekend and were so nervous about using Rover, we had never left Cleo alone before with anyone but friends. But Melissa made it so easy! First she met with me and our cat Cleo, we got to chat with each other and discussed Cleo’s needs and how Rover works. Then once it was time to check on Cleo, she kept me posted every single step of the way and left a very detailed report about her mood, her food, water bowl, her litter box, and how she’s doing overall. I had great peace of mind while I was away, and that’s a big deal for me as an anxious cat mom! I would love to book with Melissa again for the next time I’m out of town!”
“I highly recommend Mickela for your pet sitting needs. She was able to fill a super last min need for drop-ins on my two kitties while I was away for a few days. She responded quickly and was able to meet me at short notice. She was very sweet and the boys took to her immediately. She was great about cleaning up their messes (including a puke surprise left by one of them lol). This was the first time I booked a sitter to do daily drop-ins and I’m so glad I reached out to Mickela. She was such a huge help. 🤗”
About: I love all the dogs. I enjoy playing with them and taking walks. I love long hiking in the parks where me and dogs can be closer to nature. I have always met only great dogs. They all have different personalities and this is something that requires patience and understanding to allow the dog connect with me. However, as big or small the dog can be, it has no difference for me. In my life I had only one time dog biting me and it was when I was a child and was running through the neighbor's property and the dog did his duty and started running after me. He scratched my left leg with his teeth, but it was more of a gentle warning, than a bite. Dogs listen to me very well. Sometimes I get surprised myself how well they respond to me. This is something I would enjoy doing with all my heart Dogs are amazing creatures! Thank you, Oksana
About: I come from a family of dog lovers and have raised my cairn terrier since she was two months old and she’s now 12!! I’ve worked with big dogs, small dogs, old and young. I currently train my dog in emotional and psychiatric care as she is training to be a service animal. I am currently working a part-time job and do online school so don’t worry about me leaving your pets high and dry!! I have two pets of my own so I know how important attention is. I’m available whenever you need me I live in a dog friendly neighborhood where all the dogs (and dog owners) know each other. I have a large yard and live only a couple minutes away from a park. I can easily crate your pet if necessary and have a super shy dog that won’t bother yours at all. We have plenty of things to keep your pet entertained including a splash pad and plenty of toys
“Jada And Nazir are two amazing people. They were very personable and communicated effectively. I booked them for drop in services and they were on time and thorough.”
About: I’ve taken care of several pets since I was young. I had several dogs and cats (sometimes at the same time!). I love walking and playing with dogs, I’ve trained my puppy. I have taken care of big and small dogs. I have also taken care of kittens and adult cats. I have litter trained kittens and played with them often. I currently work full time, but am more than happy to watch your fur baby on my days off! I have days off where I have no plans and would love to spend it with more dogs or with your cat! I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies (dogs) of my own who are friendly and can keep your fur baby company. I am use to watching other people’s fur babies in a 24 hour care setting.
About: I've taken care of multiple cats as a sitter over the last ten years and I currently live with the sweetest boy named Marshmallow. He's very shy, but I've learned to be patient and slow with him. I know cats will be much more comfortable in their own home so house sitting would be no issue for me!
“Iveth has been SOO amazing with my cats, 3 times now. She is always so quick to respond, and sends me updates every single day. I trust her with my kitties and my home 100% ♥️”
“Amy took great care of our cats while we were out of town. It was very reassuring to get updates after each visit. We came home to happy cats. We would definitely book Amy in the future.”
About: I've always had a special connection with cats, as they tend to gravitate towards me even when they're shy. As someone who embodies black cat energy I understand trust is earned, not forced. I respect every cat's boundaries, letting them set the pace. My job is to provide a calm, low-stress environment where they can feel safe and cozy. Whether your cat wants to play, cuddle, or just lounge in the sun, I'm happy to meet them where they are.

“I cannot recommend Melissa enough! From the very first booking, she has been reliable, communicative, and incredibly attentive to my dog’s needs. The updates, photos, and videos she sends always give me peace of mind and make it clear that my puppy is not just being watched, he is genuinely being cared for and loved. Archie absolutely adores her and gets excited every time he sees her. She creates a safe, fun, and engaging environment, and it’s obvious that she treats every dog in her care like family. Melissa goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. What truly sets her apart is the extra effort and thoughtfulness she puts into caring for the dogs. For Archie’s first birthday, she hosted a birthday celebration with the other dogs in her care. Seeing him celebrated with treats, friends, and adorable photos was such a great feeling and meant so much to our family. It was one of those moments that reminded me how fortunate we are to have found someone who genuinely loves what she does. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, trustworthy, responsive, and will care for your dog as if they were her own, look no further. We are so grateful to have found her, and Archie is always excited for his next visit.”
“Max was really nice and good with my dogs, one of my dogs is really nervous around strangers and she was comfortable around him, my dogs seemed happy and relaxed when we picked them up.”
“Nisha was great when she greeted us at the door. Immediately Bash saw the other dogs and got so excited. Nisha kept me informed on Bash’s progress all day with pictures. Love how she was so on point. I’ll definitely will be using Nisha again.”
“Chris came through at a very critical time for us . This was our first time leaving our Rocky with anyone and we were very nervous of leaving him. But we are very pleased with everything , Chris was very responsive and sent pictures of our dog while we were away .”
About: Recently married and paying off bills! If you have animal needs, I'm your girl! I've had cats and dogs my whole life. All kinds of breeds-mostly huge ones🤣 husky, chow, labs. I currently swap pet care with a neighbor, so I figured why not sign up for Rover! She said she used to do it, and she enjoyed Rover. It gives me a dopamine boost every time I get to see the fur babies. I'll treat them just as my own. I work from home, so with enough notice, I can make time to make runs out to care of your pets! I am in Temple Hills - very nearby is easiest. I usually immediately let out the dogs or walk the dogs. Then I feed them. While they are eating, I will do whatever needs to be done such as filling water bowls, cleaning up messes, etc. Then once they are done, I give lots of hugs or play depending on the doggie needs. Some dogs just want to sit under my feet and sleep while I'm at the counter or some dogs have all the energy in the world. Cats tend to just be cats 🤣 I had a cat that requires injections, so long as the dog or cat tolerates, I can do shots, oral or topical meds.
About: I’m a dog owner myself, so I understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have experience with feeding, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I’ll always follow your specific care instructions while giving your pet plenty of attention and affection. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight care depending on your needs. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet’s normal routine is followed as closely as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, and any special care requirements you provide. I keep pets supervised, make sure doors and gates are secure, and provide a clean and comfortable environment. I’ll also keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for.
“Thank you for making Scout welcome. When I picked him up each day, he was relaxed, and when I dropped him off in the morning, his tail was wagging. It makes my work day comfortable to know Scout is in good hands!!! Thank you,”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love, patience, and attention I give every animal in my care. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, so I take the time to provide personalized care based on their needs. I’m experienced with puppies, senior pets, and animals that may need extra patience or attention. I can assist with basic puppy routines, feeding schedules, potty breaks, and helping reinforce simple training habits. For senior pets, I provide gentle care, medication reminders if needed, and a calm environment to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I also focus on keeping owners updated with messages and photos so they always feel connected and reassured while away from their pets. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel cared for and comfortable. I make time throughout the day for walks, feeding schedules, playtime, bathroom breaks, and giving pets the attention they need. I’m organized and dependable, so I’m able to stay consistent with each pet’s routine and any special instructions provided by owners. I also make sure pets get plenty of love, patience, and companionship, whether that’s active playtime for energetic pets or calm, gentle care for senior animals. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, so I always make it a priority in my schedule. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their environment as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medication needs, and any specific house rules. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by keeping their normal routine consistent and giving them plenty of attention, affection, and supervision while I’m there. If caring for pets in my own home (if applicable), I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly space where they can relax, play, and feel secure. I always prioritize safety by monitoring them closely, providing fresh water, regular meals, exercise, and lots of interaction so they don’t feel lonely or anxious. In both settings, I treat every pet like my own and make sure they are well cared for, happy, and comfortable at all times. Communication with the owner is also important to me, so I provide updates to give peace of mind while they are away.

“Joe made us feel so comfortable, from start to finish! Our guys have never stayed with anyone but family, and they left Joe’s like they’d known him forever. We couldn’t be more happy with our choice and plan on booking over and over again! Also, big shout out to Mr. Watson! He is the sweetest pup you will ever meet and welcomed new friends like they were part of his home. Thanks for everything, Joe and Watson!”

About: I had a dog named Buddy that I loved deeply for 16 years. Buddy passed away two years ago and it has been difficult moving on without him.I am looking for opportunities to dogsit for companionship and an excuse to be more active. I have dogsat for family many times and have experience caring for a range of ages and breeds. I am most familiar with caring for senior dogs. I work fully remote and will be able to be with your baby throughout the day. Please consider me you new sitter! Pet care fits into my daily routine, since I work from home, I’m able to take care of the dog during the day and night. I typically wake up pretty early and keep a regimented schedule throughout the day. I make sure the dog is walked. I make sure that I spend a little time playing with them if they’re older dogs and I spend a little time rubbing them or petting them. Some dogs don’t like all of that so you really have to pay attention to what type of dog you’re getting. Luckily I love all dogs so it’s all fun for me.

We also have two friendly dogs who can offer companionship, and we always take time to ensure proper, gradual introductions so all pets feel comfortable and relaxed. Lauren works from home, which allows her to provide consistent attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. Tinoi helps share in the care as well, and together we make sure each dog receives regular supervision, exercise, and affection. We do our best to maintain each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. For safety and structure, we require that dogs are crate trained and comfortable being crated when we are away from home and overnight. This helps ensure they stay safe, secure, and well rested in a familiar routine. Our goal is always to create a calm, loving environment where every pet feels at home 🐾

About: Recently married and paying off bills! If you have animal needs, I'm your girl! I've had cats and dogs my whole life. All kinds of breeds-mostly huge ones🤣 husky, chow, labs. I currently swap pet care with a neighbor, so I figured why not sign up for Rover! She said she used to do it, and she enjoyed Rover. It gives me a dopamine boost every time I get to see the fur babies. I'll treat them just as my own. I work from home, so with enough notice, I can make time to make runs out to care of your pets! I am in Temple Hills - very nearby is easiest. I usually immediately let out the dogs or walk the dogs. Then I feed them. While they are eating, I will do whatever needs to be done such as filling water bowls, cleaning up messes, etc. Then once they are done, I give lots of hugs or play depending on the doggie needs. Some dogs just want to sit under my feet and sleep while I'm at the counter or some dogs have all the energy in the world. Cats tend to just be cats 🤣 I had a cat that requires injections, so long as the dog or cat tolerates, I can do shots, oral or topical meds.
About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my extensive experience and specialized skills in handling dogs of all ages and temperaments. I bring a deep understanding of canine behavior, which allows me to provide tailored care and training to meet the unique needs of each dog. I am well-versed in training puppies, focusing on foundational skills and positive reinforcement techniques to foster good behavior and a strong bond. For senior dogs, I offer compassionate care that includes managing age-related issues such as mobility challenges and medical needs, ensuring they remain comfortable and happy. In addition to training and age-specific care, I am committed to maintaining a structured routine that promotes a sense of security and well-being. My approach combines attentive supervision with engaging activities, making sure your dog receives both mental and physical stimulation. This personalized and holistic approach ensures that every dog in my care receives the attention and care they deserve. Getting to take care of animals simply is one of the most rewarding things around. Dogs are always so giving towards us, so I believe that it is my duty to give back to them whenever possible! Dogs have certainly done so much for my life and I simply want to make sure they have all the love and kindness they need to thrive. Getting to meet new dogs and help people out all at once is a dream come true for me! Although I’ll be the primary caregiver for your dog, my home is full of puppy love! I currently live with my significant other, and they are a huge dog lover! They’ve had dogs for their whole life and is always happy to bring a new pup into the mix. When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It’s a great way to make sure that we’re all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it’s always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Perhaps the best thing about me as a sitter is that I’m a full-time dog lover! I am home every day except for Thursday which means that your pup will have all the love and attention that they need. No one likes to keep their pooch cooped up in a kennel all day, so I make sure that they can roam free and clear as they please! As I’m home all day except for Thursday, I’m the perfect fit for dogs that are used to having their human around them during the day--or for ones that could benefit from that! If you can't afford my prices I can work with you on the price you can afford it's no problem. As a pet sitter, your routine might look something like this: - **Morning:** Arrive to feed the pets, take them for a walk, and handle any bathroom breaks. - **Midday:** Check in again for a short visit, playtime, or a quick walk, depending on the pet’s needs. - **Evening:** Return to feed the pets again, provide companionship, and handle any additional exercise or bathroom breaks. I care for parts in my home all my clients home by making sure they're safe to have the food and taking them for walks and playing with their toys with them everyday.

I love the joy pets bring into our lives and I enjoy caring for them. I’m flexible with most schedules and can incorporate them into my schedule. As long as I know of any changes ahead of time, I will always try my best to meet your needs. I respect others’ homes with the upmost regard and strictly follow instructions given i.e., “walk dog, ensure they have clean water, feed kibble” etc. Any specifics can be discussed and mutually agreed upon.

About: As a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience raising and training a Cocker Spaniel, a Pitbull Terrier, and a Rottweiler from puppyhood into their senior years, my goal is to provide patient and dependable care tailored to your pet's unique personality. Whether they need playtime, walks, cuddles, or just a calm place to stay, they will always feel safe, loved, and cozy while in my care. I currently work full-time in Alexandria, VA, but I work remotely on Mondays and Wednesdays. I do have open availability on weekends, and I am available to board throughout the weekend into Monday. My care is tailored to the individual needs of every animal. My apartment complex is incredibly pet-friendly with a large area right outside my unit for long walks and playtime. We also have a grooming station in case your fur baby needs a little TLC before going home. As an active young adult and someone familiar with the challenges of the puppy years - I am also available to walk dogs as frequently as needed. I also have no problem administering medication or patiently supporting elderly or special needs animals.

“Rover Review My wife and I booked sitter services with Brian for our 3 year old Sheepadoodle, Cheyenne. As Rover newbies, we weren’t really sure what to expect and my wife was a little anxious about leaving our baby. Brian and Carly were extremely accommodating and agreed to have a meet and greet prior to Cheyenne’s stay—what an awesome couple! They welcomed Cheyenne into their home with open arms and that instantly put our minds at ease. We also had the pleasure of meeting their little boy Doc and his friend (name withheld for privacy), for which Cheyenne became fast friends. Several times a day, we received text updates on how Cheyenne was doing to include pics which we really appreciated. On pick-up day, Cheyenne was excited to see us as always but about an hour after being at home I could tell that she really enjoyed her stay because she got a little sad. That was quickly cured with a cup of Ben & Jerry’s Doggie, LOL! I honestly can’t say enough about the care and attention Cheyenne received during her stay. Moving forward, whenever we need a sitter and there’s availability, Cheyenne will be with Brian, Carly and Doc.”
“Aaron and Tia will forever be my go to person for pet-sitting. I have a 4 month old French bulldog and he seems to be at home with them and I love how they communicate and send videos and pictures of my fur baby while I'm away. They definitely are educated about pets and what is needed, because they educated me about how to train my puppy. They are very welcoming and family/pet oriented.”
“Terez watched Reese for us during a quick weekend getaway. She was very flexible with our schedule in accommodating a pick up and drop off for us since we lived so conveniently close. Reese felt right at home with her. We will definitely use Terez again!”
“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!”
“Elizabeth was my first sitter using Rover and she will be my go-to from now on! She took great care of my love and sent lots of photos while I was away. I'm very grateful to have found Elizabeth!”
“Matthew with family is very accommodating and will entertain your dog for a great price! They went swimming and on long walks. Executed Ozzie’s food plan and supplements no problem. They sleep in the bed with their dogs which my dog liked. I’ll be a return customer if they’ll have us.”
“Kim cared for my pup as her own. She was very attentive to him and cared about his feelings. This was my pup’s first time with Kim so he was a little nervous. She cared for his every need and made sure he felt loved and comfortable in her care. Kim made sure that my pup had plenty of fresh air and had lots of attention, attention to the point where she slept near him so he would not feel lonesome. My pup was nice and calm when I picked him up which let me know Kim loved on him as I do. I will book again with Kim. Thank you Kim.”
“Joe was great and we would be happy to leave Dakota in his care again. He was super flexible and provided daily updates which were really appreciated. Dakota made some dog friends and seemed to enjoy his lengthy visit. Joe lives near a wooded area so it was nice for Dakota to be a little bit out of the chaos of the city.”
“Vania was super friendly! And, she sent photos of our cat to assure she was settling in! She also cleaned the litter box! Would definitely recommend her for pet sitting!!”
“Melissa was awesome! Flexible and kept us updated every day. Cupcake came home well happy, healthy & her usual loving self. We love that Melissa seemed to love her.”
“Krista and Kira are WONDERFUL! Clearly great dog lovers and were so sweet with our senior tripod. He was clearly so happy and relaxed with them and that made being away stress free! Thank you SO MUCH!”
“Christian was amazing! Accepted my sitting request with pretty short notice after I found out my roommate wouldn’t be able to watch my dog. She also gladly watched my dog for an extra night than was originally planned when my flight got delayed. She sent me frequent updates and pictures of my dog, and it was obvious he was happy and well taken care of. Would definitely recommend her services and book with her again!”
“Kayla and Adam were wonderful hosts for our little Bonnie! This was Bonnie’s first time staying anywhere without us, but Kayla and Adam obviously love dogs and were simply great with her. Kayla sent reports with pictures several times a day, putting our minds at ease. And the fact that our dog, a very nervous and picky eater, was relaxed enough to eat on her first day told us very clearly that she was doing fine and felt at home with Kayla and her family. Thank you Kayla and Adam - we’ll be back!!”
“Alli is a great sitter and loves animals! She takes excellent care of our golden retriever puppy and constantly sent us pictures and updates. We’ll be bringing our dog back!”
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.
“Nina did a great job watching my dog Lenny! She went out of her way to drop my dog off so he wouldn’t have to walk in the rain. Her dog Ricky is a sweetheart!”
