“Ana’s been great with our girl Chewbacca. She’s been a lifesaver when it comes to last minute bookings. Chewbacca always has a great time with her and I know she’s well taken care of.”
“I had a very last minute commitment and didn’t want to leave my furbaby alone and wasn’t able to take her with me. I usually have family watching over Penny but this time they weren’t able to watch over Penny. I’ve heard of cat sitters and heard about Rover. Carrie’s profile showed up with the highest ratings and great reviews, I gave it a first time try and Carrie didn’t disappoint. Carrie has experience with cats and from the updates and pictures sent to me of Carrie’s six visits, I was relieved that Penny was in good hands. When I came home, I know Penny was shy and hid from Carrie but seeing Penny still being her happy self let me know that she was taken care of. Penny’s food area and little box were clean and I would definitely recommend future cat sittings. Thank you, Carrie, for the last minute acceptance of watching over my furbaby!!!!”
“Tara was fantastic. She came early, gave updates, tended to our animals’ specific needs, and was flexible with her schedule! Hoping to book her more in the future :)”

“Erin did an awesome job with our cat Mipha! She communicated clearly with me and provided great updates and photos. Mipha was very happy when we got back and we look forward to working with Erin again in the future.”
“Juliana was very thorough and detail oriented. She took great care of my cat, Annika, and eventually Annika, who is shy, felt comfortable enough to not hide when she visited. Juliana also provided great updates and photos while she pet sat. I would hire Juliana again!”
“Spencer and Julia took great care of our guy! They were super easy to communicate with and sent tons of pictures. We’ll definitely book with them again!”

I would highly recommend Orianne for pet care.”

About: Hi! I’m a recent Physician Assistant graduate from EVMS with over 10 years of experience working as a veterinary assistant.

My medical background also allows me to recognize early signs of illness or distress, providing added peace of mind while you’re away.

I provide reliable, attentive care and will keep you updated with messages and photos during each visit.

“Cymia has been amazing so far. She has walked my 4 months puppy twice so far, and has carefully followed all my instructions (I’m strict as I am training him). I plan to keep her as my dog walker, and highly recommend her. Great personality as well!”
About: I had my dog for 11 years of my life, until she recently passed. I’ve also cared for my neighbors cat for two years. While I miss my pet, I would find so much joy in caring for yours! I’m currently home for the summer from college, and I have a very free summer! I am super flexible and can care for your fur babies whenever you need! I have a fenced yard, and when I am out of my house the pet would be safely confined to one room and made as comfortable as possible. I am fully comfortable walking your dog as needed, and having play time!
“I was impressed with Daniel right from the start! He is a very humble, respectful, responsible, kind young man who loves animals. My dog Sophie immediately took to him and she would have great walks with him. I asked a lot from Daniel when I went on holiday…and he delivered! He came to my home for 10 days to not only walk my dog but also feed her…give her medicine, and as a bonus, he played with her. Socializing w Sophie went a long way because she was alone most of the time. He would always be on time and, when another dog walker canceled, he quickly covered that shift. No questions or higher charge. He sent a lot of photos too. Since I’ve been back from my holiday, I’ve been in poor health. I texted Daniel and he is now my dog walker on days when I’m unable to take Sophie out myself. Again, punctual & always thinking about what’s best for my dog…. For example, He remembers to dry Sophie’s paws when they arrive from a walk in the snow or rain. I highly recommend Daniel as your dog walker or sitter.”
“Responds quickly and easy to communicate with. Really appreciate Autumn being available at the last minute for an afternoon walk when my schedule changed.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, and I have learned from experience what a dog’s boundaries, needs, and strengths can be! Not to mention, I absolutely love furry friends to hang out and simply enjoy the company with! I can provide an stress-free environment that’s tailored to your pups routine and needs. And, of course, expect daily photo updates of our adventures! I am a full time student, so I specialize in prioritizing my time when I am home to take care of your furry friends. I am not currently taking weekly care clients as I am only available during the summer, schools breaks, and long holidays. I have a fenced front, a back yard, a lovely, patient dog, plenty of space, and a dog bed for your pup to sleep comfortably in in case of sleepovers. I love walking, especially with some company, and I love to prioritize a dogs needs and offer them whatever level of love they need to feel comforted!
“Our whole family loves Amanda. From the first day she came to meet our 2 pups, they immediately took to her. She’s incredibly warm and knowledgeable about taking care of dogs with different needs, as well as reliable and great with communicating. We’re very, very lucky to have her taking care of our fur babies”

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.
“Helena is so kind and responsive. She watched Charlie for 8 days and sent us pics/videos of Charlie’s daily walks and of Charlie having fun with her little dog.We also truly appreciated that she only took care of one dog at a time, so Charlie’s bed came back clean and didn’t have other pet hair. I would absolutely entrust Helena with Charlie again for a long term stay.”
