“We left Pojo with Sujan for little over 3 weeks. We got regular updates - pictures and messages on the walks, the foods and treats Sujan would make him. He also gave him a bath before we arrived to pick him. We’re very thankful to have found Sujan and deeply appreciate the care and love he gave Pojo. Thank you Sujan!!”

“Leslie took such wonderful care of my two senior pups who have various special needs. She stayed in close contact with me in the lead up to their stay to ensure she had all instructions and that she had all the appropriate information she needed from me. While I was gone, she sent photos and videos every day, as well as updates about how they were doing and if she saw anything potentially abnormal. She has a great set up at her house with plenty of trails for walks during the day. Leslie is a true professional and I highly recommend her!”
“Andrew took great care of our dog Apollo. I was apprehensive about using Rover for the first time, but Andrew quickly eased my concerns with his responsive messages and meet & greet with our dog. Apollo looked very content and well cared for when we picked him up - we’d definitely book with Andrew again and would recommend him to my friends!”
“Jason and Becky were absolutely amazing with Teddie! From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. They sent so many pictures and regular updates throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind and let us see how much fun he was having. Teddie had the best time going to the dog park, playing with their two wonderful dogs, and getting lots of love and attention. It was clear they treated him like one of their own, and he came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We are so grateful for the incredible care they gave him and wouldn't hesitate to book with them again. We highly recommend Jason and Becky to anyone looking for caring, reliable sitters. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of our boy! 🐾”
“Wow - what a great experience! We brought our golden retriever over to John and Joanna on somewhat of a short fuse due to a family emergency. Our Lucy was so well taken care of - we could not have asked for a better home! Lucy was treated so well, just like family except with alot more pampering!! Would take Lucy back again in the future and would definitely recommend! We even got a gift bag when we left!!❤️”
“Brianna was great with Nalu! She listened to what she needed and followed instructions. I received updates and photos throughout the visit, and Nalu seemed so happy in the photos 😊. I even received the cutest photo collage during pick up, which I’m putting up on my fridge!”
“John was the most attentive care taker! He took Murph on so many adventures and captured so many photos, I felt like I was there! Will definitely be rebooking! Thank you so much.”
“Ruidi took wonderful care of my pitbull mix Sunny. She sent lots of nice pictures during the stay, and she took the time to cook yummy chicken and broccoli for Sunny to enjoy. Sunny usually eats dog food. So I'm sure this was a lovely vacation for her. Ruidi is a loving and caring dogsitter, and I would recommend her!”
“Jorge and Alejandra were AMZAZING!! I have a very anxious girl (dog) Roo and they made sure she was very comfortable and felt right at home! They were great about sending updates and putting my mind at ease! Roo had a great time and was very tired when she came home! I felt very comfortable with her staying with them! They truly treated her like part of the family and I will be contacting them when needed again!”
“Kirin was wonderful with my dog, Kya. He watched her twice for several days each while I was visiting family. He was easy to communicate with and was really attentive to Kya’s high energy nature and puppy tendencies (I’m sure his two goldens helped with that too 🤣). I was able to relax and enjoy my travels, knowing she was in good hands.”
“Shi Ming provided excellent care for my dog, Chase. He was happy, well‑looked‑after, and clearly enjoyed his time there. Daily photo/video updates were a great touch and kept me informed throughout his stay. I would confidently recommend Shi Ming’s boarding services.”
“Carla and family is amazing. I boarded biscuit in the last minute and they treated biscuit as their own dog. Biscuit had an amazing time there and Carla sent me a lot of pictures and updates on biscuit. I will highly recommend Carla !!”
“We are so grateful to Shiva for taking such wonderful care of our Frenchie, Arya! 🐾 From the moment we met Shiva, we felt completely comfortable leaving Arya in her care. She was incredibly loving, attentive, and thorough, making sure every detail of Arya’s care and routine was taken care of. Shiva was thoughtful about everything—from feeding and walks to making sure Arya was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. She kept us updated while we were away, which gave us such peace of mind, and it was clear that Arya was in wonderful hands. We came home to a very happy pup, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. We highly recommend Shiva to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, thorough, and genuinely caring. We will absolutely be asking her to look after Arya again! ❤️”

“She was absolutely wonderful! She communicated with us carefully and thoroughly about our cats’ needs and made sure she understood all the details of their care. She always arrived as scheduled and was very attentive to how our cats were doing during each visit. We really appreciated how thoughtful and reliable she was. Our cats became fond of her very quickly and clearly enjoyed spending time with her! We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands while we were away. We would definitely recommend her and would be happy to book with her again!”

“Asher provided consistent updates and reached out with questions to ensure my cat was well taken care of. It was very comforting while I was traveling internationally for 10 days. I would absolutely love to book again with Asher in the future.”
“Regina was really great! She watched our two cats for a last minute trip and they did very well with her. We have one shy cat who takes longer to get used to people and he was out of hiding and being social on only her second visit! I do appreciate that she took notes during our introduction when I was showing her around our home & telling her what to do. It shows an extra level of care. And with that, she followed all instructions perfectly & sent many pictures. We would definitely use Regina again!”
“Jake did a great job taking care of my 2 high maintenance kitties. He was very responsive and made it easy to arrange a key exchange. I appreciated getting pics of the 2 while I was away. The service he provided was housesitting and I was happy he treated my place like his own. I will definitely use Jake again!”
“Tricia has been wonderful every time she’s come to look after our cat. She is extremely reliable and pays very close attention to the details of her care plan. I would absolutely recommend her for your pet care needs.”
“Alexa is amazing!! From first outreach, she was super responsive and easy to communicate with. She made sure our cats were well cared for and even spent extra time with them, and sent plenty of photos. I’d definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”
“Amanda is an amazing pet sitter. She took such great care of our three cats and one Praying Mantis. Two of our cats need daily medicine, and she made sure they had their meds. She even returned after a completed scheduled visit when one of them found a new hiding spot to make sure the cat received the necessary dose. We also have an elderly Praying Mantis (for real) that is a class pet for my students. She took such good care of it and she braver than most people I know because the Praying Mantis needed to be hand fed live crickets!! She loves all creatures great and small. She kept all the kitty spaces and the terrarium clean. Everyone looked happy and healthy when we returned home.”
About: Every time I’ve had a roommate who claims their cat is standoffish or shy, it ends up that my lap becomes their favorite place to be. I’m comfortable trimming nails, administering oral medicines, and I believe cleaning the litter box is a daily chore!
“Leah did a fantastic job watching over my cat while I was out of town for a few days! She stayed the full time and I could tell that my cat was as happy as can be. Would love to have you stop by and watch Iroh again in the future!”
About: I absolutely love cats and have experience caring for all kinds of personalities! I’m happy to give them plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and space when they need it. With 5 pets of my own (2 dogs and 3 cats), I’m comfortable keeping up with routines and making sure every cat feels safe and loved.
“Christine was super punctual, took care of my baby boy, and even took care of some things around the house. 10/10 highly recommend. Would love to have her cat sit again!”
About: I volunteered at the VBSPCA for a few years. I also have experience caring for and sitting for the pets of friends, family and neighbors. I am a recent college grad looking to make a living doing what I love. I will be available most days of the week and can work any hour of the day. I will follow the safety and environmental requests asked of me in the homes of my clients. I will keep dogs on a leash at all times when taking them on walks.
About: I have taken care of every feline personality there is. Although cats are made to seem independent, I understand that all cats, even the quieter ones, must receive the love and affection that they all deserve. I grew up with cats since I was born, and understand that the bond between a person and their cat is something special. I personally have my two cats, who are my babies, and I completely understand the want and need for them to be taken care of safely and lovingly. I have lots of experience with medications, especially from a diabetic cat in my family, so I understand the importance of being on time with medicines. I hope to connect with every cat I meet, whether they need their space or want constant attention.
“Jessica is absolutely amazing! I’m a very anxious cat parent, and thanks to her, I was actually able to enjoy my trip without constantly worrying about my boys. She pays incredible attention to detail and truly cares about the cats she looks after. When Skubi started having some health issues, Jessica monitored him closely, kept me informed, and once we got his medication, she started him on it and updated me every step of the way. That really meant a lot to me. She also sends the most wonderful pictures and thoughtful updates, which always put my mind at ease. Honestly, there aren’t enough good things I could say about her. Jessica is a truly wonderful, trustworthy, and compassionate cat sitter, and I’m so grateful to have found her! 🥰”

“Loreen was really patient with Milo, who is a bit skittish around strangers. She took the time to get him acquainted with her house, yards and kids. She and the kids genuinely love Milo and she sent great pictures of his stay at her house. I’ll definitely use her again!”
About: We’re a dependable mother–daughter pet-sitting team with 30 years of combined experience caring for, training, fostering, and loving animals of all shapes and sizes. 🐾 Over the years, we’ve cared for dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, birds, fish, and many other pets. Our own family has included Whippets, Labs, Shepherds, Mastiffs, Basset Hounds, and Chihuahua mixes, and as sitters and fosters we’ve cared for many more breeds—including Bulldogs, Retrievers, Huskies, Poodles, Mountain Dogs, Great Danes, and plenty of wonderful mixed breeds. 🐕 🐕🦺 🦮 🐩 One of us is working toward dog-training certification, and we both have puppy-training experience. 🦮🚶♀️ We gently reinforce good habits, routines, and leash manners through patience, consistency, TLC, and positive handling. Most importantly, we understand that every pet has its own personality, pace, and needs. As home owners ourselves who have lived in three different neighborhoods in the DMV, we specialize in providing attentive, respectful, and reliable care while keeping your pets comfortable in the surroundings they know best--your home! When your pet stays with us, they become part of the family. Our home is set up with safety and comfort in mind, with a secure fenced yard, indoor gates, and separate spaces when pets need a little room of their own. Our designated pet areas—including our family room—are cleaned at least once daily and stocked with plenty of blankets, toys, and chew toys. 🪢 🥎 🧺 (See photos attached to our profile). Our cats stay comfortably upstairs, giving them their own space away from visiting dogs. Most important, someone is always home with your pets. They get lots of companionship, attention, affection, and access to our outdoor space whenever they want it. What we offer with our services: 🏡 Fenced yard 👩👧 Mother–daughter care team with 30 years combined experience 🏠 Someone is always home 🐶 No more than 2 dogs/families boarded at one time 🎓 Dog-training experience/certification in progress 🐕 Experience with everything from Chihuahuas to Great Danes ❤️ Dogs treated as part of the family Mom is the primary sitter, with her daughter—an apprentice vet and lifelong animal lover—often helping out. We’d love to provide reliable care for your pets at home or welcome them into our home! ❤️ We are currently working flexible hours and one of us is out of school for the summer, so we have plenty of time and flexibility to play with your pups! When we welcome you pets into our home, someone is always home with them. We are experienced dog walkers comfortable caring for pets in urban, suburban, park, and country settings. Whether your dog enjoys neighborhood walks, park outings, or a calmer pace, we adjust to each pet’s personality, energy level, and routine. For pet sitting in our home, we have a gated kitchen/family room area where pets can stay safely with us, as well as a fenced patio where they can get fresh air and companionship. We have the ability to separate your pets from other pets if that helps them feel secure. We can also crate your pet if that is part of their normal routine or helps them feel secure.

Communication was always prompt and clear, and they took such great care of my two dogs—everything felt so easy and reassuring. They also sent me lots of photo updates, which I really appreciated. I would absolutely book with Jason again and highly recommend them!”
About: I provide thoughtful, home-based care for dogs who thrive in a calm and structured environment. As a work-from-home sitter, I’m able to give consistent attention, supervision, and a steady routine throughout the day. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs with different energy levels and temperaments, and I pay close attention to their behavior, comfort, and safety. What sets me apart is that I keep things intentionally small and controlled. I take the time to understand each dog’s needs, and prioritize a low-stress experience with plenty of outdoor time, gentle structure, and a secure fenced yard. I also require a meet-and-greet to ensure the right fit, so every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and well looked after.I keep my care intentionally small so each dog gets consistent attention and a calm environment. Doggy care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and am able to provide consistent supervision and companionship throughout the day.Dogs in my care are part of a calm, structured routine that includes regular outdoor time in my fenced yard, walks on nearby trails ( My fenced backyard opens directly to walking trails for easy access to outdoor time and walks) along with plenty of time to rest and relax indoors. I build my schedule around the dogs I’m caring for, making sure they get a good balance of activity, attention, and downtime. On a weekly basis, I keep things predictable and low-stress, which helps dogs settle in comfortably. I’m mindful about not overbooking, so each dog receives the time and attention they need without feeling overwhelmed. Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, their care and routine remain consistent so they feel safe and at ease... When pets stay in my home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow each dog’s feeding schedule, potty routine, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. Dogs have regular access to my fenced yard for bathroom breaks and outdoor time, along with walks on nearby trails depending on their energy level. Inside the home, dogs are given a calm space to relax and are never left unsupervised for long periods since I work from home. I introduce dogs thoughtfully and only take on a small number at a time to maintain a safe and low-stress environment. I also pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and overall comfort, and I communicate with owners if anything seems off. My goal is to make their stay feel predictable, safe, and as close to their home routine as possible.

“Yichen is such a good care giver to my Fur baby WALL-E. She's been understanding and mindful of my babies needs. She shows dedication and time. Kept me updated with photos and also monitors with care. Her fur baby Ube is so caring and calm ( matching good energy). I would recommend Yichen to care for your fur baby.”
“Shelley was very welcoming and eager to make our dog relaxed and at home. She walked him and fed him and he was free to explore her lovely home. I would definitely use her again!”
“Fritz always has the best time with ManYee and Hannah. It’s a good feeling to see him run to the elevator with her, not even looking back. And I always know he’s in the best care possible!”
About: I've always been the family, friend, & neighbor go-to for pet care! I'm friendly, reliable, and I have a huge heart for furry friends. Your baby will be happy and free to roam the home all the time and play with an energetic, pup-friend (my boxer/hound rescue). Daily walks, plenty of playtime, and lots of love are guaranteed. I am comfortable administering medicine, and your pup is welcome on the furniture. Any questions just ask! I am a teacher who is home weekends and most school holidays and can pick up/drop off your pet if needed. Last minute & holiday bookings are welcome. I have a large crate and access to smaller crates if needed. Otherwise, pets are welcome to roam free indoors all day & night. I'm in a 2 bedroom, garden-style condo. with a small patio that pups can be on a lead if they like. Otherwise, we can go to a little-known dog park that is grass surface and play for an hour every day (depending on weather). In your home, I can play with your pup, feed, medicate, whatever is needed. Overnights at my home are easy with last minute bookings. Thanks for reading :)
About: I absolutely love taking care of my family's dogs! I especially enjoy going for walks with them when I'm at home. I absolutely love taking care of dogs! They depend on us for their needs and affection, especially when they're in a new environment. It's so rewarding to give them the love and care they deserve! I'm available before 7 a.m. and after 10 a.m. to go for a walk! I'll make sure to take them for a walk in the perfect weather, so they're not too cold or too hot. I love going for long walks before 3 or after 6 in the afternoon! I have a small dog, and he is part of my family! In my house, the dogs will have a space where we will receive them with the same affection as our dog. He will be free to walk all over the house, he will have his place to be fed, and a comfortable space to take a nap! We are flexible with our schedules because we understand that sometimes there are last minute activities that are out of our control. Your dog will receive all the care it needs, including proper feeding and walks, according to its routine. The house we live in is part of an excellent community. The complex is enclosed and has open spaces for pets to walk, which makes the area safe and quiet.
“Jennifer hosted our dog for doggy daycare. He had an absolute blast and became best friends with her and her lovely dog Sunny. Jennifer sent cute pictures and great, detailed updates. Our dog can’t wait to return!”
About: I've pet sit for my friends dogs and have raised a corgi puppy from 10 weeks old! I love dogs and will treat yours like mine. I have a playful and friendly corgi who plays well with all dogs. Plus I give excellent scratches. I will send a bunch of photos, as long as you don’t mind me spamming you with them! We do at least 3 walks a day, dog parks after work, and fun adventures on the weekends. Normally we eat breakfast around 8:30, go for a potty walk, and play. During the weekday, I take them out every 4 hours and do mental puzzles at home. If the weather is nice, we will go to a nearby dog park. On weekends, we tend to go out for outdoor adventures if the weather is nice I live in an apartment with ample walking nearby. Super dog friendly neighborhood. We have space to set up crates if needed. I am a neat person and will clean up after myself and the dogs.
About: Over the past 20 years, I’ve had three dogs, a Pomeranian, an Akita, and a Yorkshire Terrier. Each one had a different personality, but they were all very attached to me. None of them went to a training school, but they were all well-behaved. I trained them myself before they turned one year old. I currently live in a clean, quiet, pet-free home. There are no pets living in the house at this time, so visiting dogs will not have to share the space with other animals or adjust to another pet’s presence or scent. I only accept small dogs up to 20 lbs and prefer low-shedding breeds. My home provides a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where dogs can feel safe and relaxed during their stay. I’m home most of the day, so your dog will rarely be left alone. Big park around the house. Like walk and play with dog. Small dogs need lots of attention and one-on-one care, which is why I only host one dog at a time. I follow each owner’s feeding routine and do not give dogs any human food. Small dogs can have sensitive stomachs, so I believe consistency is important. My goal is to provide a quiet, comfortable, clean, and healthy environment where every dog can feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for.

“Mary was really kind and helpful! My dog, Maggie, loved her and she did a great job walking her around the neighborhood and dealing with some of her tricky behaviors. Mary also sent really detailed messages after each walk! Would definitely recommend!”
“Francisco is an outstanding dog walker! He consistently goes above and beyond to make sure our dog is well cared for. After every walk, he communicates with me and provides thoughtful updates about how everything went, including anything he noticed that I should be aware of. What really stood out to me was his attention to detail and genuine care. During our last walk, it started raining, and he reached out to ask where he could find a towel so he could dry our dog off before leaving. That level of thoughtfulness meant a lot to me and showed how much he truly cares about the pets he looks after. I highly recommend Francisco to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog walker. Your pet will be in great hands!”
“Tricia was great! She house sat for us and watched out dog over a holiday. We received updates and photos everyday and knew our dog was well cared for. Thanks so much Tricia!”
“Abigail is the person you want to take care of your pets: she is reliable, patient and communicative. She took care of my sick dog amazingly and I always feel comfortable leaving my pets with her. I can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for 5+ years for friends, family, neighbors, and clients. I absolutely love getting to know every pet’s personality! I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies and cats to K9s and a 17-year-old dog who needed multiple medications and strict schedule. I also have 5 pets of my own (2 dogs and 3 cats), so I’m used to lots of love, different routines, and pets with all kinds of needs! Fun fact, I volunteer for rescue in puerto rico flying animals back to the states when I travel there. I’m currently in college, so my availability depends on my class schedule during the semester. However, when I’m home on school breaks, I’m completely available and would love to spend my time caring for pets! I’m flexible and happy to work around your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! I follow each pet’s normal routine, give them plenty of attention and exercise, and make sure they feel comfortable in their own home. I’m respectful of your space, careful with instructions, and happy to provide updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for!
About: I once took care of a puppy of a friend of mine for 2 weeks, I’ve been surrounded my dogs for my whole life. I make sure dogs are comfortable and ensure they are okay with me petting them, dogs have boundaries and deserve respect. I feed my dogs everyday twice a day. They spend a lot of time in the backyard but during the summer the goldendoodle doesn’t stay out for long to avoid overheating. I have a fenced yard, and i have a lot of treats, we also ensure to feed them in scheduled times. I can walk a dog as long as the dog would like!
“Cathy is very caring and loving. She treated my dog as if he were her own dog. She takes great care and does a good job reporting each visit. She also takes the bests pics. I will continue to book her in the future.”
About: I’ve had experience with both dogs and cats since I was a toddler! My family has always had Sheltie dogs, and I have always had cats of my own! I have experience as a foster parent to cats and kittens of all sizes. My cat Tater Tot is a foster fail! I also have experience dog and cat sitting for friends over the years, including in home care, dog walking, senior dog care, and puppy care as I raised my own dog, Honey, from just a few months old! I am currently in the midst of starting my own pastry business, so I am extremely flexible as I work through the paperwork and business planning! I am completely flexible in my schedule, and am available any day of the week any time as my work is a currently remote and flexible! I currently do not offer care in my home, but I am very comfortable doing pet care in clients homes. My most recent dog-sitting client had three dogs of various ages and temperaments, and I was comfortable entering the home, walking and spending time with them, feeding and giving the elderly dog medication, then crating the two others! As a pet parent, I know how important it is to spend quality time and play time with pets while they are missing their family!
“I boasted that my dog was a “very good boy” during my meet and greet with Katherine, but it turns out, he gave her real hell on their first walk. Katherine was super adaptive and handled it like a pro.”
About: Grew up with both dogs and cats and learned to read the little ways they communicate. I'll be sure to treat them as my own but under your specific guidance and instruction, making sure they're comfortable and cared for while you're away. I can get them moving, tucker them out, or just give them belly pats until you're home—either way, I'm sure they'll have fun! I'm a writer by day, which basically means I'm 'unemployed.' But this is great for you because I'll have plenty of time for your pets! (Not so great for the gas bill however...) It also means I have a very flexible schedule and can bend to your scheduling needs. I'm certain we can work out a time that works for both of us. I was in the Navy and the NSA and held a Top-Secret Clearance for over six years. (They don't just give those things out to anyone.) But if that's not enough to get you to feel safe, I'm also CPR certified, was an EMT, and have experience watching pets of family and friends for years and nothing bad has ever happened.

I was able to relax and enjoy my travels, knowing she was in good hands.”

“Suzi was so great with our 16 year old, senior pup. We were nervous at first since we don’t often have others watch Roxy. Suzi was very patient with her and gave us regular updates and pictures, which we really enjoyed and appreciated. She even went out of her way to purchase additional wet food for Roxy (we sent her with wet and dry). We know Roxy enjoyed herself. Would highly recommend!”
“We boarded our dog Kuma with Solomon and he was very attentive. Asked a ton of great questions and made sure Kuma was very comfortable. Sent us pictures and video updates everyday, along with how he was doing. We felt very relaxed and worry free while we were away. Highly recommend, amazing sitter!”
“Candice did a wonderful job caring for our dog! She was communicative throughout the booking, pre-arrival, during care, and through pick up. She genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. We will definitely use her again!”
“We boarded our 3‑year‑old dog with Loreen for 10 days and couldn’t have been happier. She gave him excellent care — daily walks, visits to the dog park, and lots of attention — and sent photos and updates every day, which put us at ease. Reliable, caring, and professional. Highly recommend!”
“This is my second time booking with Helena & Nathan! Louis loves doing zoomies in their backyard and came back home exhausted. He had a minor paw injury before dropping him off which required them to clean his paw every night and they had no problem doing it. Thanks so much!!”
“Aly did a great job. Sent a few updates throughout the week and monitored for any issues and checked in with any concerns. First experience with Rover and was pleased! Easy to coordinate drop off and pick up. Would use her again if we need a pet sitter!”
“Scout had a wonderful time with Michelle! She was kind and professional, and sent photos and an update each day. I could tell that was happy from all the loving attention and playtime outside. Thank you Michelle for taking such good care of our boy :)”
