“We had an excellent experience with Morgan as our cat sitter. She quickly won over our shy kitties, which immediately put us at ease, and she was wonderful about taking cues from them. It was clear she really understands cats and respects their personalities. Morgan’s communication was fantastic—timely, thoughtful updates that made us feel completely comfortable while we were away. She went above and beyond in so many ways, including thinking ahead to make sure they had plenty of food and water going into a snowstorm. She even took the extra time to sweep up around the litter area, which we did not request but was so appreciated. Morgan is incredibly trustworthy and detail-oriented, and it was obvious she genuinely cared about our cats’ comfort and well-being. We felt completely confident leaving our pets in her care. We have already booked her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional cat care.”

“Aimee was great. Communicated well, had a video conference to set up the details, and took great care of our cat. Looking forward to having her back again soon.”


“Dewan did a great job of checking on my cat while I was away for a couple days. I enjoyed all the photos of them playing together and could tell that my cat felt really comfortable with him! Many thanks and would book again :)”


“Tiffanie has looked after our cat Pippa twice now, and we wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again. She’s responsive and attentive, providing detailed summaries for each visit. If you need a cat sitter, your cat will be in great hands with Tiffanie!”


“Maggie took excellent care of my cats while I was gone, keeping me updated and attentive to their needs. I will definitely hire her again for my cat sitting needs!”


“Simone was absolutely wonderful! She sent us lots of pictures while we were away, and she took great care of our cat. Very easy to coordinate with, and I felt extremely comfortable leaving my pet with her.”

“Drew helped me when I needed last-minute care for my two cats. She was super kind, communicative, and brought it up to my attention when she saw that something was clearly bothering one of the kitties. It’s obvious she genuinely cares. Would book again!”


“Heather did an amazing job taking care of my cat while I was out of town. It was great seeing pics of them playing together. Also, there was an issue with my key and Heather completely handled it. Thanks Heather! ”


“Julia and Spencer are great with our cats! They spend plenty of time playing with our high energy kittens. They take awesome pics and give us thorough updates! Thanks again!”

“Guiselle was wonderful and so sweet with Koko. It was a relief to me to know she was in good hands with a fellow animal lover. I’m sure she enjoyed her time with Guiselle!”

“Emili quickly earned the trust of my cat Midge & me! She was able to administer medication & played with Midge loads. Will definitely be asking her to cat sit again!”

“Sophie did a fantastic job taking care of our cat. She was extremely attentive to our cat's needs and followed our, frankly, excessively detailed instructions on feeding, litter box care, and play. During each visit, she sent us photos that showed our cat engaging and playing with her — no small feat when dealing with a skittish, young feline. It was our first trip since adopting our cat, and Sophie helped us feel confident that she was in good hands. Thank you, Sophie!”

About: I've had pets my entire life. I used to have 10 dogs, 6 small and 4 big. I also had cats. I currently have a senior black cat who I brought from Brazil with me. I've been caring for her for over a decade now. I am currently not working and have great flexibility to care for pets on short notice, any day of the week and any time of the day! I cannot bring your pet to my house as I have a very territorial cat. But I will care for your pet in your house

“Jack was great for my two cats, watched them over Christmas break with no issues at all - very responsible, courteous, and overall a great experience. Would recommend!”

“We needed someone on short notice and Alexandria responded immediately. She was friendly, easy to communicate with, and made the process stress-free. She was great with our 8-month-old rescue, Poppy, who’s still adjusting and can be reactive on leash. Alexandria was patient and understanding, handling Poppy thoughtfully. We loved the photos and report card after each visit and would definitely book Alexandria again—Poppy would be happy to see her too!”

“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!”

“Haley was a real lifesaver for us. We had a very last-minute request due to an emergency and needed someone we could trust with our senior dog, and Haley agreed to watch him without hesitation. She took great care of him and gave us real peace of mind during a stressful situation. She was also very flexible with our pickup time, which we really appreciated. We’re incredibly grateful and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

About: I know how important it is to find someone who will treat your pup like family while you're away. I work from home full-time, so your dog will always have company and lots of cuddles throughout the day. - I only host one client at a time, so you dont have to worry about unfamiliar dogs during their stay. -Whether your dog loves playtime, long walks, cuddles on the couch, or a slower-paced routine, I’m happy to match their needs. -I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. I also have experience with dogs with separation anxiety and food or environmental allergies. 📷 You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is happy and well cared for. **I live in an apartment building, so I can't safely accommodate large dogs that are reactive to people or other dogs, since it's not possible to completely avoid encounters in shared spaces.** I can accommodate regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and check-ins, and I’m able to adjust my routine to meet your dog’s needs. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my priority. I follow all care instructions, use leashes on walks, and provide a calm, secure environment with regular updates.
“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 🤗”

“Caroline is absolutely fantastic! My pup suffers from horrible separation anxiety so he needs to be sat quite often. Caroline is our go to because we can trust he’s being given the best of care. She is incredibly responsive when determining our sitting needs, very flexible and respectful of our ask not to leave our pup alone. Would highly recommend Caroline for anyone looking for a sitter in the area!”

“Catherine was the most perfect dog sitter for our 1 year old Bauer. She had a very cute dog who got along very well with him. Highly recommend and will be using her again!”

“Amy saved the day for my chiweenie, Willar and I. Her pup Winston is a such a cute little guy and very mild mannered. Amy took great care of my little senior pup currently on a special diet and needing lots of attention and affection. Amy was also flexible and understanding of my own separation anxiety being away from my furbaby 😄”

“Alexis and Katie were amazing to Louie (my dog). Louie was tired yet very happy when returning home, and I know it was as a result of playing a ton. Alexis was very communicative and shared plenty of great pictures that made me feel very comfortable. We will be booking again in the future, and I truly recommend them if you are looking for a great dog sitter”

“Donna was wonderful, as always! She's warm, caring, and great with our dog. We also appreciated her clear communication and the regular updates she sent about how our dog was doing!”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs/cats of all sizes and temperaments. I will make sure your dog/cat feels happy ad relaxed while you are away! Get ready for lots of love and playtime. Safety and comfort are my top priorities! My routines are set. I am available mostly on weekdays and weekends. I am pretty flexible when it comes to available hours. It will just depend on the client location whether I can also have availabilities early in the morning or late in the evening. I will care for your pets in my home and I am available for drop in visits. I will meet your pets first and do a walkthrough to understand what needs to be done.
“Hk was great with my puppy! i was worried but she kept me updated all the time with feedback and pictures to reassure my dog was adjusting fine and i really appreciated that! Thank you and we’ll definitely bring Mia back again”


“Sarachai takes wonderful care of my Monti (see cute goldendoodle pic!). My dog cries with happiness as we drive up to his house and pulls me to the front door. The family is great about sending pics and letting me know how my dog is doing during the day. I am extremely comfortable with letting Monti stay. I'll continue to be a repeat customer.”

“Chang was wonderful in watching Mia, who immediately seemed at ease with her. Chang was able to get her to relax and eat some of her food and also treated Mia to a pup smoothie bowl that she enjoyed. We also appreciated Chang's prompt responses to our messages and all the pictures and updates she shared. We're glad we found Chang on short notice.”

“Catalina and Joel took such great care of my American Bully, Fred. I was searching very last minute for a pet sitter and they graciously took him in for the day. I cannot thank them enough!”

About: I have raised and trained two amazing dogs and I would be happy to make pet care simpler for you. Open communication is a baseline. My schedule changes day to day, but typically allows for long breaks before and after clients where I can stop in and see our furry friends. I am free most weekends. I care for pets according to the specifications of the owner. I do my absolute best to honor all requests even if they are unusual.
“What a gem Caroline is — great communications and flexibility. Jayda loved her perches and chilling together. Thank you so much Caroline — highly recommended”

“Leila came to my rescue w/ my last minute request for doggy daycare today. She responded quickly and made my Zoe feel so welcome at drop off. Zoe did not want to leave when I picked her up, which is a first. Leila is a dog whisperer! Thank you for your kindness and the adorable photos. Immediately had peace of mind knowing Zoe was in great care w/ a loving sitter. My girl Zoe can be a bit high maintenance but Leila never made me feel like an inconvenience. I highly recommend Leila to care for your fur baby.”

About: I am a pet lover. I grew up in a home with many pets including dogs and cats and have always had a special connection to animals. I love going on long walks and heading to the dog park when the weather is nice. I am here to help you care for your pet the best way possible. I'll always listen to special instructions and will show your pet the love and attention as if they were my own. I have a flexible schedule and am able to do "drop-in visits" and "rover now" walks during most week days when many walkers are unavailable. I am in the office two days a week, Tuesdays and a flex day. I can't wait to meet your fur baby! **I cannot accept pets that get into plants as I have a few not pet safe plants at home** I work from home 3 days a week and am home most weekends! I too Iove middle of the day walks and all day hangs! I am in a pet friendly building that is super close to Rock Creek for longer walks. My home is child free, and smoke free. I do have a senior beagle mix I adopted from a family member who could not bring him with for an overseas move who is a full time pet at the home.

“Tali had a great walk with Maggie! I appreciated that she came over to meet Tali earlier in the week before the walk and Tali loved her instantly. She was flexible with some time changes and kept me updated after the walk sharing lots of pictures. Will absolutely continue to have Maggie walk my pup!”


“Julia walked my two dogs all summer while I was working. From the beginning, Julia took the time to make sure she understood my (very detailed!) preferences, always made sure she got things right, and was accommodating for schedule changes and when we moved. Julia was such a big help and I could entrust her with walking my two fur-babies. She is great!”

“Anne did a wonderful job walking my dog, Greyson. She provided detailed updates and pictures after each walk and was really sweet and caring when interacting with Greyson. I’d highly recommend her and will definitely book her again.”


About: As a recent GW magna cum laude graduate and longtime resident of the DC-metro area, I have the ability and experience to provide quality care services to you and your beloved pet by maintaining a strong, balanced routine while you are away. As the former owner of a senior dog, I excel at meeting medication standards during feeding and scanning dogs for tics and other external-borne threats. As an NYC native, I have over 10 years of experience dog-walking in urban areas, especially in maintaining dog safety from foot and vehicle traffic. By combining a strong work (and play) ethic with a passionate love for all dogs, I am a safe bet to care for your canine companion! I’m currently living in the DC metro area after completing a BA at GWU. I will be headed to Ireland for graduate school in the fall, and until then, my schedule is completely free to care for your canine family! I live in a residential coop with a park and open green spaces for your dog to play off-leash (if trained). As a former collegiate athlete, I can reach any level of demanded exercise for your dog.
“Hannah was great getting Logan moving in the middle of the day while I was at work. She's super responsive and was a huge help to me in my first week back in the office.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for many years, and each experience has taught me how to be patient, loving, and responsible. I looked after my sweet poodle for 17 years, especially when she grew older and developed Alzheimer’s. It was a challenging time, but I cared for her with all my heart. I also helped care for dogs adopted by my family. My elderly aunt adopted a street dog named Fred, and since she couldn’t manage walks and vet visits on her own, I was the one who took care of him. Later, my grandmother adopted another rescue named Bruce, and I became his main walking companion because of her limited mobility. Currently, I live with my host family, and they have a wonderful rescue dog named Rosie. Whenever they travel, I’m fully responsible for her care — from walks to cuddles — and she has truly become my best friend. These experiences taught me how to adapt to the unique needs of each dog, whether they’re seniors, rescues, or playful companions. I always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I currently have a very flexible routine, which allows me to adapt easily to your pet’s needs. I can adjust my schedule to make sure they’re cared for and happy. When caring for pets, my priority is always their safety and comfort. I make sure to follow their usual routines, from feeding and walks to playtime and rest, so they feel secure and at ease. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs, and I’m always careful with doors, leashes, and surroundings during walks. Whether in my client’s home or with a pet I’m sitting, I treat their space with respect and keep everything clean and organized. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, so I do everything with responsibility and care.
“Lucy was great and communicative! She placed Mosby’s wrap on correctly so he wasn't able to slide it off and came on time. Will definitely book again.”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for a majority of my life. My friends and extended family rely on me when they go out of town. My family and I will always pick up (and house) any stray/lost dogs we see so I have experience with all types of dogs and breeds. Weekdays work best for me. My schedule is quite flexible. I deal with animals in my everyday life and i’m more than happy to meet more! I have one friendly cat and one energetic dog, with a big and spacious back yard for them. I myself am energetic so I can match any pet’s energy.
About: I love all dogs, but I've grown up taking care of primarily large dogs like Pitbulls. My neighbors rely on me very often to take care of their pets when needed. I currently have a very flexible schedule while I am going to college online. I am available during the week and some weekends! Pet care is already built into my daily routine, so please let me know how I can make your day easier by spending some time with your fur baby. During the walks your fur baby is my main focus. I love going for long walks to get some energy out, but short walks are also nice. I walk my sweet dog separately from other fur babies to alleviate the stress of dog introductions.
“Amanda is incredibly responsible, thoughtful, and such a dog person. Rosie was in love with her at first sight. Lucky to have her as part of my "dog team."”

“Anne has been a godsend since my return to the office 5 days a week. She is a great communicator and sends really cute photos. Highly recommend!”


“Lynne has a fun and delightful personality and she is clearly a dog lover. Having Lynne walk my dog Naka midday has been a huge lift off my shoulder and I’ve noticed a happier Naka when I come from work.”

“I'm so grateful we found Sophie to help out with our dog Meli! Sophie was flexible and able to come walk our dog a few times per week while I was traveling and my husband was working long hours. She is great with dogs, trustworthy, and communicative. The cute photos she sent of Meli were the icing on the cake! If we are back in the area again, I wouldn't hesitate to hire Sophie again.”

“Ashley has been walking my dog for a few months and she is amazing!! She’s super quick to respond to requests and always sends pics from walks. My dog loves her too - would highly recommend her services!”
