He asked us all the right questions about our doggie’s habits and made sure Moose felt comfortable all weekend!”

We were lucky to find them available for our mini vacation. Thank you, Laurie and Richard”

“Mollie was our cat sitter for almost 2 weeks while we were out of town, and we couldn’t be happier with her service. This was our first time using Mollie, so she was kind enough to come over and meet Baxter and learn his routine. She was punctual, friendly, and took great care of Baxter, sending photos every single day! You know how important those pictures are to cat daddies. She followed our instructions to the letter and even sent us daily updates (along with the photos) of Baxter. When we got home, Baxter was happy to see us. We highly recommend Mollie without reservation to anyone looking for a reliable, super friendly, and caring cat sitter.”

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.”

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.”

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 had the pleasure of raising my two pups from infancy at the same time - and they’re 10 and energetic now! I am very energetic and love all kinds of dogs, so happy to help! I work from home and am quite flexible during most work days! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m happy to accommodate any daily routine for your dog. I am very active so I can walk them on check-ins and definitely take them out for restroom breaks I have two dogs at home and they love to play with other dogs if your dog is friendly, and if not happy to hang out and take care of your dog alone as well. Whatever you and your dog are most comfortable with!

About: I’ve owned all different kinds of pets, from birds to snakes, to rabbits and ferrets. I love meeting all different sorts of animals, they’re amazing! I can make time for any pet job I accept, can make my current job fit around my schedule so they can always have attention I treat pets like just another member of the family, because they are, always with respect for the animal at all times, and always have fresh water available
About: I have grown up in a household that loves dogs. I was lucky enough to grow up surrounded by puppies of all sorts. As an international student from Italy, I have a friend waiting for me to come back at all times, his name is Grey. As I am proceeding with my studies at GW, I miss the company of my best friend, and I think that being surrounded by new pets would be an amazing experience! I am currently a graduate student at GW, but in the free time I like to study and take care of myself. As an ambitious girl I think that taking care of a puppy would make my day and keep me busy. I have a one bedroom apartment in Rosslyn. Unfortunately, I do not have a yard, but my dog back home doesn’t have one either, so I grew accustomed to taking him out on walks whenever he needs. Your puppy is more than welcome to share the space with me!
“Jessica has watched and boarded my dog Bodhi for me many times. She has been absolutely wonderful with Bodhi, and you can tell she loves him like he’s part of her family. Bodhi and her dog Poppy get along wonderfully , and have become little besties. She is reliable, communicative, and clearly very experienced with dogs. I really appreciate that she goes the extra mile by sending me pictures, videos and updates when she is in his care. It is obvious that Jessica genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. Bodhi is always happy and well cared for, and I feel completely comfortable knowing he’s in good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate sitter or dog walker!”
“Phenomenal daycare - very communicative, pickup and dropoff is easy, and our dog always has a great time. She is very happy hear and clearly well cared for. 10/10”
“Tushar and his wife were very responsible, flexible and reliable. They really took a good care of Snape. We were totally dependent on them as it was a new place for us and Snape too. Although it was holidays, but they accepted the request when it was a last minute thing. Most importantly they made sure we enjoy D.C. and comforted Snape every way possible with Winston and their cat. I would highly recommend them to other pet owners. And lastly a big THANK YOU ❤️🐾”
About: I love all kind of animals. I own two dogs and they are my family and everything. As a dog owner I know how important and how hard to find dog sitters that you can trust and depend on. I have my own car and I am pretty flexible during the day. I can take care of your pet needs including walks, going to dog park, trip to pet store, playtime. I am 35 years old, I have been in DC area over 8 years. I know the DC and Arlington area well. I have full time job but I mostly work nights. I am free during the day besides spending time with my furry babies. They love going to dog parks and walking in the neighborhood.
About: We’re a pet-loving couple with over 10 years of experience caring for pets together, plus plenty more individually. We’re proud pet parents: our home currently includes Stewie, our affectionate 11-year-old rescue tabby, famous for his face snuggles. We still hold our family dogs close to our hearts, even though they don’t live with us, Cora, my rescue Maltese who now lives with my mom back home, and Kira, our Spitz, who we fondly remember after crossing the rainbow bridge earlier this year. Over the years, we’ve cared for pets of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies and kittens to wise senior pets. Our combined skills include: - Training energetic puppies using positive-reinforcement methods - Providing gentle, attentive care for senior pets, including medication reminders and slow, comfortable walks - Walking dogs of all sizes, and even “cat-walking” adventurous felines - Offering reliable overnight care in our home To give every pet our full attention, we host one animal at a time, making sure they feel safe, loved, and completely at home. We take joy in creating a fun, calm, and welcoming environment and would be honored to care for your furry friend like part of our family. We both work from home, so there’s always someone around to give your pet attention and love. Morning walks, midday potty breaks, afternoon play, or evening snuggles, we can fit care into any part of the day. We’re flexible and happy to step in on short notice whenever your furry friend needs us! - Pet-Proof Home & Dedicated Space: Your pet has access to our entire pet-proofed home, with plenty of room to explore and relax. We also have a quiet “pet suite” with cozy bedding, toys, and essentials, which can be used for rest, downtime, or extra comfort. - Resident Cat Introduction: Stewie, our gentle and curious tabby, can meet your pet slowly and supervised—or we can keep them separate if that’s best. Structured Routine: We maintain consistent feeding, potty breaks, walks, and naps to match your pet’s usual schedule. - Emergency Ready: Vet contacts and a “go bag” with leashes, carriers, and essentials are always ready. We send regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing your furry friend is safe, happy, and getting plenty of love throughout their stay! :)
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.

“Patharapa was great! We just got to the area and are staying in a hotel. Our dogs were safe and we got great pictures as well as updates. We are definitely booking with her again.”
“Carolina has been great. She came out to meet our dog, Max, and was not at all put off by his size (95 pounds) or energy (overly enthusiastic), which can be intimidating. She keeps us posted on all of his walks, and (most importantly) Max seems very happy with the arrangement.”
“An absolute dog whisperer! Julia has been amazing with our dog Banx who was from a rescue and very anxious with strangers. He warmed up to her immediately and is so excited to see her every morning! We are thrilled to be working with her!”
About: Having grown up with dogs of all ages, from high energy puppies to senior dogs requiring patient care, dog behavior and body language are second nature to me. I know cues to keep them safe on the leash, and the provide structured, attentive care they get at home. When your dog is with me, you’re getting someone who truly cares and understand them, not just someone tracking steps I currently work from home and am a very active person. I am available most days of the week during the day and some evenings. My schedule is flexible so I can easily accommodate your needs! I live in a pet free home and tailor to making sure your dog feels comfortable in any environment whether it’s my home or yours!

“Charlie is great! Takes my nutty Weimaraner on long, vigorous walks while treating my other dog, a sensitive old mutt, with care and tenderness. Charlie is also fun and personable. Highly recommend.”
About: I have had 10+ years taking care of both dogs and cats! Growing up, my parents adopted both puppies and senior dogs with various health conditions. I have experience taking care of dogs with conditions ranging from blindness, to pancreatitis, to a heart tumor. In addition, I helped my family take care of a senior cat from age 13-18. Since he lost the ability to groom himself, I have plenty of experience brushing/declumping cat hair. My partner and I adopted a kitten in November, 2025 who is now 1 year old! I am a 4th grade teacher so am very free during the summer months (all day)! I have availability on all weekdays and weekends. During the school year, I have availability on weekends and weekdays after 4 pm. I care for pets as if they are one of my own. I will follow any routines/procedures pets are accustomed to and take good care of them.
About: Fostered animals (dogs, puppies, cats, kittens) with the RHSPCA while in college and want to continue caring for animals post-grad! I have experience treating animals with various medical conditions (blindness, oral medication, topical medication). I love going on walks but my cat is not a fan so would love to take a dog along:) I work from home and take walks early in the morning (7am) and noon during my lunch break. I am also available after my working hours at 5pm. I am an animal lover and make sure my pets are well-cared for. I want to ensure every animal is safe, happy, and fed. I love to bring dogs on enriching walks and to make sure they’ve gotten the proper amount of exercise for their breed.

Morgan sent me lots of pictures and updates and even walked her all the way back to my house when my flight home landed late. Will definitely ask Morgan to pet sit Ru again!”
“We had an amazing experience with Grecia and can’t recommend her enough. She took care of our dog, Sinchi, for 17 days while we were away on travel. After reading her reviews and meeting her in person, we immediately felt at ease—and she absolutely lived up to that feeling. Grecia was incredibly attentive and communicative. She sent us updates almost every single day, along with photos, which made such a difference while we were so far away. It really helped us relax and actually enjoy our trip knowing Sinchi was in good hands. Anytime we had questions, she responded quickly and thoughtfully. Most importantly, we could tell Sinchi was genuinely happy and comfortable. That peace of mind is everything when you’re traveling. Grecia (and her partner) were both such a pleasure to work with—kind, reliable, and clearly great with dogs. We’re so grateful we found her and will absolutely be booking with her again in the future. Highly, highly recommend.”

“Kerstyn was so amazing to help us out last minute! Our dog, Wilson, enjoyed his stay and we could tell from the photos and videos shared that he was well cared for. We definitely will be reaching out to Kerstyn to watch our dog in the future!”
“Francise is the absolute best all around: communication, photos, flexibility, and most importantly, the best care for Monty, who loves her. She can handle his reactive leash walking too, which gives me peace of mind. This is the second time we’ve used her and will do so again!”
