“Rae was absolutely great to work with when we had to take a trip shortly after adopting our pup, Moxie. It was clear from the meet and greet that she knows dogs well, and even though Moxie is still being trained on some things, Rae was great by giving us additional tips and tricks that we can use going forward and worked very well with her. Moxie had a great time playing with Rae's pups as well so it was great that she got some additional socializing too! We would recommend Rae and will be repeat customers”
“Kelly was great and I felt comfortable leaving my pup with her. She was quick to respond to my request, to set up a meet and greet, and easygoing re: drop off and pickup. I will gladly book her again the next time I have a need.”

About: I have had my own cats for the last 11 years, I have two cats and love them dearly. Cats are a little harder to figure out than dogs but I love the challenge because cats are so special and it's super rewarding when you gain their trust as they don't give it away freely.

About: Hello my name is Hailee im 18! I’ve always loved cats and honestly have wished for one my whole life, but my family hasn’t allowed it. Even so, I’ve found so much joy in being around and caring for the cats in my community. I regularly help take care of my neighbor’s cat who has hyperthyroidism, making sure hes comfortable and well looked after. I also visit another neighbor who has two cats — a playful Bengal and a black cat — and I enjoy spending time with them and helping out whenever I can. On top of that, my childhood best friend has a tabby and a fluffy Persian that I often help care for, whether it’s feeding them, cleaning up, or just keeping them company. People jokingly call me the “cat whisperer” because cats seem to naturally warm up to me and follow me around. Even though I don’t have a cat of my own, I’ve spent years learning how to care for them with patience, love, and attention to detail.

“My pup had a great time at Russ's house! She came back super tired from playing with the other dogs. Russ sent me several updates throughout the day, which I really loved. Drop off and pick up was super easy- I will be using Russ again!”
“Jen and Louis saved the day and came through for me and my chiweenie Willar when I really needed a sitter who understands my senior pup's needs. Willar has dietary restrictions and some quirks, and Jen was attentive, followed all the instructions for Willar's routine, and she asked very thoughtful questions. Additionally, her dog Louis is so welcoming and sweet. They really helped with some transitions I'm going through and were very accommodating.”

About: Hi there! I’m Grant - my wife and I are huge dog lovers. In April of 2025, we lost our first dog, Moose, a 90lb golden retriever mix. To honor his memory, we began a fostering journey. We successfully fostered out 5 dogs (3 of them seniors) to their forever homes over the next year (including the 5th one, who became our own!). We are aquatinted with all kinds and sizes with dogs. It’s been an honor to get to know each one and explore their unique personalities! We currently have 2 dogs of our own at home: Ellie, a 3yo petite Great Pyrenees, and Charlie, a 2yo Australian Shepherd. They LIVE for playing with other dogs - we’d love to host your pup and provide them a happy, fun, safe space to stay while you are away. Do you have a big dog? Are you anxious about it pulling your dog walker? I’ve got experience with large dogs pulling and I can handle yours. I will give them the distance and space they need to have a happy and safe walk. I get anxious when we have others look after our dogs. Anything could happen. Know that I will bring every bit of care and safety to your dog that I bring to mine every day. They’re valuable members of your family and I will treat them as such. Please reach out with any questions. Thank you! I work from home when I am not traveling for work, so am fairly flexible during the day and week. Just let me know the time and we’ll see if it works! My own dog is like my child. I know that you feel the same way about yours. I will follow all instructions to a T. I am passionate about safety about my own dog - I will bring that level of care to you.
“Thanks guys for being so understanding and flexible. Our family truly appreciate all of the love that you give to Mochi! Please note your kindness does not go unnoticed🤞🏽”

“Jen was a pleasure an super sweet with my Dolce. She immediately sent me pictures that he was barking and standing at the door when I dropped him off. She was very sweet with him and understanding of his separation anxiety. Her home was very peaceful and I loved that she had 1;1 and no other dogs and that Dolce was allowed to sleep on the bed. Pictures were abundant and I loved videos. She text me for any concern she had and I really appreciated that. Loved her laid back vibe. Will definitely use her again.”

“Brittani has been walking my dog Denim this past week, and I honestly couldn’t be happier. Returning to the office has been a huge adjustment for both me and Denim since she struggles with separation anxiety, but Brittani has been so patient, kind, communicative, and reliable throughout the transition.

About: I have 2 cats of my own and have had dogs, cats, pigs, cows, chickens, and just about any other farm animal (i lived on a farm growing up). I am very comfortable taking care of any dog, any size. We had Bernese Mountain Dogs, Rottweilers, and Corgis! So I have experience with just about every size of pup. I am a 2nd grade teacher on summer break so I have plenty of spare time to take care of your fur babies! I am typically available between the hours of 8am-4pm. I can accommodate my schedule to your needs so do not hesitate to reach out! :) I live in an apartment with two cats. They are both extremely friendly and love other pets to play with! I live in Alexandria with plenty of dog parks and trails nearby to go for walks!
“Bridget walked our dog Obi and we found her to be prompt, trustworthy and took direction well.

Thank you, Bridget!”

“We have a very anxious little pup and were a bit worried he wouldn't warm up to a stranger, but Ian was up for the challenge! He left us detailed notes, so we knew he spent some time working to get Rhett to warm up to him -- and it worked! Very thankful we didn't have to worry about our little guy at all :)”
“Hilary was great with our pug! She was reliable and provided updates and was even able to get our girl back in her crate after her walk, when she can be a bit stubborn. She was communicative and made booking and everything easy! Will definitely book Hilary again!”
About: From fur to scales, I love all animals! I have experience with babies to older pets who may need more care, but all of them mean the world to me! I'm a college student with too much free time and too much love in my heart! I have class 9:30 to 11 Monday and Wednesday but I have plenty of time before and after to care for your pet!

About: I have lived with and taken care of dogs for 14 years. I am a homebody at heart so will be home with your fur baby most of the time! I work remotely from home so will be around to play and cuddle & walk your pet throughout the day. I’m not able to host your pet at my home but can stay at yours I am a very cautious, quiet person who loves quiet nights in with a book. Because of this, your pet will be safe & receive cuddles all day long!
About: My partner and I both had small to large dogs in our families since we were children. For the past several years, we've dogsat all sizes and ages for our friends and clients. Having a dog ourselves, we understand the needs and mindset of a dog. We believe in daily mental and physical stimulation. This can include sniffmats, food puzzles, tug, training, chase, fetch, walks, hikes, jogs, and more. If your dog loves to play and be active, we're the sitters for you. A typical day is: early morning walk/outdoor play, breakfast, lunchtime walk/outdoor play, evening dinner, night time walk. On weekends, we may find a local hike to enjoy. We have a large, secluded, unfenced backyard that's fun for the dogs to run around or bask in the sun on a long leash or offleash if trained. Our dog sleeps in a crate and uses his crate whenever he wants some "me time." He is so friendly and great about sharing his toys, but he will steal a toy to entice play. To be respectful of our neighbors, we kindly ask for non-excessive barker guests.
“Peter has been so great with my dog Milo! He has a history of anxiety and is not always great with other dogs, but Peter has been so patient with him despite his quirks! I look forward to continue booking him for future care needs :)”
