“Rosalina was amazing! She saved our life as we had an emergency which had us looking for a puppy sitter last minute and Rosalina responded within 10 minutes and quickly agreed to watch our puppy. Her family was so welcoming, she sent pictures every few hours with updates, and responded fast if u asked any questions. We will for sure reach out to Rosalina for any future needs!”
“Rebecca is great and is always our go-to for the care of our puppy. She is very responssive and always keeps us updated on the care of our boy with pictures and messages. Second to none. Thank you, Rebecca!”
“Ana was great with my Gimli! I booked her because of her high ratings and good reviews, and let me tell you, she lives up to her 5-star reviews! She sent daily pictures and videos of my sweetheart, and I never once worried about him.

I will definitely be booking with her again in the future because I know my little guy will be in the best hands ever!”
“Teecey made me very comfortable leaving my little one with her overnight. She was very accommodating when I forgot to bring all of my dog's food and Teecey's dog was a great playmate for my energetic Frenchie. I'd choose Teecey again.”
“Jim took great care of our senior dog, Teddy! He sent pictures and responded to any questions or comments I had very quickly. I needed to adjust my pick-up time kind of last minute and Jim was extremely flexible and accommodating. Might be the first time Teddy wasn't super grateful/excited to be home again, which to me indicates Teddy enjoyed his stay at Jim's place. Thanks, Jim!”

“Anthony took absolutely wonderful care of my Labrador, Channel, during a long 40-day stay at his home. The entire experience was amazing! Channel felt so loved, welcomed, and right at home from the start. Leaving a pet for such an extended period can be stressful, but Anthony completely put our minds at ease. He was incredibly attentive, kept in touch regularly, and sent plenty of photos so we could see how happy she was. He truly treated her like his own. I highly recommend his services and will absolutely be booking with him again!”
“Great service and communication. I felt comfortable leaving my dog with her for the weekend. She kept me updated with pictures and let me know how everything was going with my dog. I will definitely hire again.”
“Heather is amazing! She watched over my dog for about a week. My dog has food allergies and is on a prescription diet. Heather followed directions and provided updates by communicating throughout her stay. I will definitely be using her services again. Highly recommend!”
“Sabine is EXCELLENT! Not only did she take excellent care of my two little Yorkies, she went above and beyond in their care. I fell I’ll while on my trip and had to delay my return by a day. She was understanding and incredibly helpful, even picking up extra food for them. I can tell my little pups loved her and her dogs. She is kind, loving, very observant, and an excellent communicator. Now knowing I have someone I can trust wholeheartedly, makes me feel so much better when considering going out of town. THANK YOU, Sabine!”
“She is amazing!! Not only is she a dog lover, her entire family loves dogs. She sends updates and pictures continuously throughout the day, even better yet also makes homemade treats for the pups. She also took my fur baby out to the store to get him treats. She is a true dog lover!!”

I will walk your dog, brush, give medication, and play with your dog throughout the day. My soul job will be to ease your dogs anxiety while you are away.
“Camila is a very kind sitter. She watched our 14 year old dog Darwin for a week while went out of state on family business. She took excellent care of him, sent us pictures, and let us know how he was doing throughout the week. We didn’t have to worry about his care so we could focus on our family’s needs. I would definitely recommend her services!”
“My two Aussies had a great time with Jessica. She came through for me when I lost my regular sitter due to a family emergency and she was great. She sent pictures, videos and was very responsive to my text messages. In the pictures and videos I could see that my boys were happy and comfortable. Highly recommend!”
“Gustavo was very responsive and he helped take care of our 2 cats, one of which required insulin shots. He updated us regularly and addressed any concerns he had to make sure we are in the loop. We are grateful for his care!”

About: Caring for cats has taught me that every cat is unique. I pay close attention to their body language, keep their litter boxes and feeding areas clean, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own home. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or independent, I'll respect their routine and provide patient, loving care every step of the way. I'll treat your cat with the same kindness, attention, and care I'd give my own.

About: I've always been a natural caregiver. I've had pets since I was born, took care of my grandmother in her final years, and I take care of patients of all ages everyday as a healthcare worker. My goal is always to look out for the underdog (pun intended). I work at a dental clinic nearby with nights, weekends, and every other Friday off. My 15 minute commute allows me to pop home if I need to let our pup out. I have plenty of time before and after work for walks and snuggles too! I have a fenced in backyard, a super laid back 9 year old lab mix, and two chill cats who pretty much keep to themselves. We have plenty of extra space for crating if need be! And if for some reason your furry friend needs and entirely secluded area, we can provide that as well.
“Finding Melissa and having her help care for and pamper Sky during these days has been a true blessing. Both my cat Sky and my family clicked with her immediately. Melissa is incredibly loving and empathetic, as well as helpful and proactive. She kept us posted on everything. We are so grateful for her excellent support. The fact that she is bilingual adds even more value to her work. Thank you so much, Melissa! 🙏🏼”

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life, giving me 15 years of hands-on experience across all breeds and sizes. From large, powerful breeds like Rottweilers, Pitbulls, and Great Danes to spirited Schnauzers and my current 4-year-old French Bulldog, I understand how to adjust my care to every dog's unique personality and energy level.

I manage my schedule carefully to ensure every dog gets full attention, frequent bathroom breaks, and daily exercise.

Having raised dogs my whole life—from large breeds like Great Danes and Pitbulls to smaller pups like my Frenchie—I prioritize safety above all else. In your home, I keep the environment secure, strictly follow all feeding and leash protocols, and provide frequent updates and photos so you have total peace of mind.

About: Hi! I’m Gaby, a lifelong dog lover with a background in Animal Science and hands-on experience working with animals. In addition to being a dog owner myself, I’ve volunteered at a local animal shelter, where I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. These experiences have taught me how to be patient, attentive, and compassionate while ensuring every dog feels safe and comfortable. I understand that every dog is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, walking style, and preferences. Whether your pup enjoys an energetic adventure, a relaxing stroll, or plenty of time to sniff and explore, I’ll make sure they have a fun and enriching experience. As a pet parent, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. I’ll treat your furry family member as if they were my own and keep you updated with photos and messages after every walk so you can have complete peace of mind. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and genuinely passionate about animal care. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I am currently working full time. My work environment is hybrid, so I’m mostly working from home. My schedule is flexible and I’m available for weekday walks, with availability during late mornings, afternoons, and early evenings. I’m happy to work with your dog’s routine and find a schedule that works best for both of us. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pet. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always take the time to understand their routine, personality, comfort level, and any specific instructions from their family. During walks, I focus on keeping your dog safe by using proper leash handling, being aware of our surroundings, and following any preferences you have regarding routes, pace, and interactions with other dogs or people. When entering your home, I will always be respectful of your space and follow your instructions carefully. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big responsibility, and I will provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care every time.
“Nancy took such good care of Jasper! My sweet dog is a rescue, and can have pretty severe separation anxiety while I'm away. I was in town for a wedding, and wanted to know that Jasper was well cared for and had someone to hang out with all day. Nancy understood exactly what Jasper needed, and I returned to a happy and relaxed dog. I will definitely book with Nancy again next time we're in town.”
About: I’ve spent years taking care of pets—from shy seniors to high-energy pups—and I really take the time to get to know what each one needs to feel happy and comfortable. I’m super patient, and I love finding the little things that make each pet light up, whether that’s a favorite toy or a long walk! My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and totally at home while you’re away. Pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and check-ins, so giving pets consistent care fits really smoothly into my day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening chill time, I make sure each pet gets the attention and structure they’re used to. Even on busy weeks, I carve out dedicated time so every animal I’m caring for gets patience, affection, and a routine that feels familiar to them. I listen to you. In my home, I keep pets on their usual routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. If I’m at a client’s home, I follow their rules and their pet’s normal schedule so everything feels familiar.
“Rebecca took care of my two fur babies, Melo and Lola for 10 days while we were away on vacation. She sent pictures and videos on a daily basis. Couldn’t ask for better care.”
About: I took care of all 3 of my Dad's Rottweilers, loved them all until they passed. I have 2 boys 10 & 6 who are eager for a dog, so this will be a good opportunity to acquaint them with a loving breed. I look forward to experiencing the joys and happiness of caring for your dog, with a genuine love of friendship. I call myself the MANny...I work from home, and the primary stay at home caretaker of my boys as my wife runs the day to day of our counseling practice. My schedule is very flexible to walk and play with your dog frequently. I have a fenced yard, and believe in letting manageable pets roam free. However, I have ample space indoors to crate your fur friend as needed.
About: I love animals! I worked with the largest animal rescue in the DC metro area for over five years where I regularly took in rescues of all types/breeds and histories. I'm a constant student of animal (and people) behavior. I also have some basic obedience experience and can work with your dog on healthy boundaries. I have excellent references, am extremely trustworthy, and I love all animals. I can work from anywhere as long as I have wi-fi so I'm happy to stay with your pets for most of the day when needed. If your dog needs vet visits, etc., I also have an SUV and am happy to take them to their appointments if needed. I've watched hermit crabs, a bunny, fish, snails, shrimp, and even a snake. Dogs and cats are my favorite! Send me a message and let's chat about what works best for you and your family!
“Payton loves Tracey and her family. She feels like that is her home away from home. She looks forward to going to Tracey’s everyday I’ve taken her. Although she sometimes misses her kitten brother when they’re playing in the morning. Tracey is consistent and reliable and offers excellent pet care if you need someone to help out with your pet, I would definitely recommend her.”
“Aiden and her wonderful family have been fantastic sitters! BELLA is usually very skittish about new places but she has been very excited to go to doggy day care. Highly recommended!”
“We are so thankful to have found Jim. We had a last minute issue finding coverage for our 9 month old puppy for a day trip and he was able to take her for a day care day last minute. He sent us pictures of her throughout the day and she came home super happy and super exhausted. Jim is so accommodative and friendly and we are so thankful to have found him. We are planning to use his services for a longer vacation over the summer. Highly recommend Jim if you’re in need of someone to watch your furbaby.”
About: Hi, I’m Taylah! 🐾 I’ve cared for dogs since I was 12, helping raise Great Danes, a Husky, and puppies. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and love giving them plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and care. I’m available for drop-ins, overnight stays, and doggy day care. I also welcome holiday bookings—just send me a message! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I go on walks every day, so bringing a furry friend along is always a joy, not a task. Whether it’s morning strolls or evening wind-downs, I’m already active and outdoors, which makes it easy to give your dog the exercise and attention they need. My flexible schedule allows me to be fully present and responsive to their needs—whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just a little extra love throughout the day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I treat them like family. In my home, dogs have a safe, clean, and calm space to relax, with plenty of room to play and nap. I follow their regular routines—feeding schedules, walk times, and any special instructions—to make the transition smooth and stress-free. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect the space and the pet’s comfort zone. I keep things consistent by sticking to your pet’s usual routine, offering companionship, regular potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I keep you updated with messages and photos so you know your pet is happy, safe, and in good hands. My goal is always to make your pet feel secure, loved, and well-cared for—whether they’re in my home or their own.
“Eddie was very happy with his visit to Heather, she kept him busy (which he loves) and showed him all the attention he craves as well. Highly recommend Heather for everyone's fur babies.”
“My dog and I just moved to a new area so I was anxious about finding someone to watch him while we get settled. Jennifer and Justin were so kind and sent me plenty of photos throughout the day. They even very kindly washed his bowl after he ate his food. My dog had an amazing time and I would trust them to watch him again”

About: I have had pets all my life. I started helping take care of my cat and dogs at around 10 years old. I help out with my friends and extended family members pets as well. My dog takes medication in the morning so I can administer medication if needed. She has also gone through two surgeries so I can help during pet recovery as well. I’ve had hyperactive dogs as well as territorial/ toy-aggressive dogs and know how to deal with them. I have also had dogs who needed extra care due to being old. I do know a little bit about training dogs but not much. I work part time and go to college full time. However, I live at home with my parents so I can fit pet care into my schedule. I have a fenced backyard for my dog to run around or just lay outside. I walk her 2/3 times a day and she gets fed twice a day, morning and evening. I also spend a lot of time with her whether it’s playing around or just watching tv. If I am caring for someone else’s pets, I feed the pets and play with them as well as hang out with them.
About: What sets me apart is my 15 years of hands-on experience caring for and raising pets.

I have plenty of open time to dedicate to your pets and am very adaptable based on what you and your animal need.

I always make sure to follow all the owner's rules exactly, double-check that all the doors and gates are locked tight,and maintain a clean, hazard-free environment. I make sure pets are well-supervised, fed on time, and treated with the same love and respect I give my own animals.
“I cannot say enough good things about Toni. She is dependable, trustworthy and one of the few people I whole heartedly know will go above and beyond to take care of my animals. Lots of play time, and long walks to tire them out! The first day she came to do a meet and greet, I knew they would be in good hands and I didn’t have to worry. Thank you for everything you do Toni!! 10/10 will always recommend !!”

About: I’ve taken care of smaller dog breeds since I was 10 since I was a pet owner myself. My childhood pup of 17 years recently passed. I took care of medium-to-large breeds during the pandemic and during grad school. I’m familiar with anxious dogs and older dogs, and like to give animals their space to feel comfortable around me. I’m also experienced in cat sitting (~ 5 years) and have taken care of multi-pet households before. My day-time schedule is flexible and my weekends are pretty much open, especially in the mornings. I like being outside, so I am often at a park or on a hike on weekends! I currently live at home with family, no children and no other pets. We have a large backyard. In a client’s home, I like to be familiar with all entrances and exits and am extra careful to pay attention to feeding and medicine schedules. I take care of my client’s home like I take care of their pet. I am respectful, caring, and responsible. I want the pet to feel as less stress as possible.
About: Hello! I love all animals, I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since for as long as I could remember, I have experience all breeds and sizes of dogs and cats, all ages including Puppies and seniors, Patience is my virtue in dealing with animals. The most rewarding part about pet care is seeing the animals thrive when they are in a safe and loving environment. I’m currently open for a flexible position, my schedule can accommodate needs for evening pet care and morning care if needed. If needed overnight I will also be available if notified ahead of time. I like a good space for the pets, I always like to ask the routine of the pets and match their owners routines , I do this to make sure the Pets are comfortable with a familiar routine, and I am very open if the pets also need medication administered on a strict schedule to support healing. I always provide playtime if no restrictions from the vet, and consent from the Pet Parent. I do provide daily dog walking services.
“Christopher was absolutely great with my eight month old puppy, who had never had a dog walker before. He kept me updated and was always communicative. He also went the extra mile, playing with Honey after her walks. I highly recommend!”
“William was great! He was reliable, flexible, understanding, patient and very nice. He did great with my two dogs. One of them requires special attention during walks. Will did exceptional. Definitely will be telling my family and friends about him so they can use him too, I know I will be! Thanks again William!”
About: I have been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. I prioritize comfort, accommodations, and overall wellbeing/autonomy of the animal I am taking care of while being a reliable and calming pack leader. I have experience with taking care of senior and disabled pups, as well as being a stepping stone for puppies as young as two months old! Old, adolescent or young adult, pups of all age or requests are no feat for me! I also work with cats, so your feline baby is no exception to my care! I am currently employed as Supervisor at a doggy daycare/boarding facility. I also own 5 pets! I have three cats by the names of Sticker (F), Rivers (F) and Pickles (M), an adolescent Chihuahua [mix] named Chloe (F), and an Eastern Box Turtle named Tootie (F)! I am also in training to become a dog trainer! I am almost finished with my certification. Pet care is the absolute forefront of my life. It's 25/8! Coming into a clients home, I like to look for the dogs favorite/chosen safe space and also where their eating place is! Those two places are a great area to gain a new dogs trust. I really enjoy feeding time when it comes to pet care. I am someone who LOVES to eat, so it really satisfying to see a pet enjoy their meal. For a more picky eater, I really enjoy finding a method to encourage a dog to eat whether it be adding pumpkin, bone broth, rim the bowl with peanut butter or yogurt, or even offering my presence so they feel safe -- every breathing creature deserves to start and end their day with a lovely meal. Aside from that, I do enjoy getting to know the dog on their own terms by letting them set the pace. I enjoy going outside and taking pets to areas where we can experience life together so they know they are not alone and are able be free and express themselves however they please! Along with enrichment and exercise services, I am also able to give basic grooming services (bath, nail trim, ear cleaning, breath refresh, anal gland expression, brush-out EXCLUDING de-matting) if you need your pup or feline to be cleaned!

“Rosalina was amazing! She saved our life as we had an emergency which had us looking for a puppy sitter last minute and Rosalina responded within 10 minutes and quickly agreed to watch our puppy. Her family was so welcoming, she sent pictures every few hours with updates, and responded fast if u asked any questions. We will for sure reach out to Rosalina for any future needs!”
“Ana was great with my Gimli! I booked her because of her high ratings and good reviews, and let me tell you, she lives up to her 5-star reviews! She sent daily pictures and videos of my sweetheart, and I never once worried about him. Its clear Ana loves the dogs she cares for, and goes above and beyond to ensure theyre comfortable and thriving. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future because I know my little guy will be in the best hands ever!”
“Teecey made me very comfortable leaving my little one with her overnight. She was very accommodating when I forgot to bring all of my dog's food and Teecey's dog was a great playmate for my energetic Frenchie. I'd choose Teecey again.”
“Jim took great care of our senior dog, Teddy! He sent pictures and responded to any questions or comments I had very quickly. I needed to adjust my pick-up time kind of last minute and Jim was extremely flexible and accommodating. Might be the first time Teddy wasn't super grateful/excited to be home again, which to me indicates Teddy enjoyed his stay at Jim's place. Thanks, Jim!”
“Kelly is the best! She's great to work with in terms of communication and getting all the medications and taking great pictures. Additionally, the doggos love her and they get so much activity! It feels great knowing they're having a good time!”
“Anthony took absolutely wonderful care of my Labrador, Channel, during a long 40-day stay at his home. The entire experience was amazing! Channel felt so loved, welcomed, and right at home from the start. Leaving a pet for such an extended period can be stressful, but Anthony completely put our minds at ease. He was incredibly attentive, kept in touch regularly, and sent plenty of photos so we could see how happy she was. He truly treated her like his own. I highly recommend his services and will absolutely be booking with him again!”
“Great service and communication. I felt comfortable leaving my dog with her for the weekend. She kept me updated with pictures and let me know how everything was going with my dog. I will definitely hire again.”
“Heather is amazing! She watched over my dog for about a week. My dog has food allergies and is on a prescription diet. Heather followed directions and provided updates by communicating throughout her stay. I will definitely be using her services again. Highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of dogs that were mine or family friends at all age ranges. I am familiar with giving dogs medicine and practicing commands. I work full time but am a teacher off during the summer. My husband also works 1 mile from our home to be able to be home after a school day. I love dogs and have one of my own. I will walk your dog, brush, give medication, and play with your dog throughout the day. My soul job will be to ease your dogs anxiety while you are away.
“Camila is a very kind sitter. She watched our 14 year old dog Darwin for a week while went out of state on family business. She took excellent care of him, sent us pictures, and let us know how he was doing throughout the week. We didn’t have to worry about his care so we could focus on our family’s needs. I would definitely recommend her services!”
“My two Aussies had a great time with Jessica. She came through for me when I lost my regular sitter due to a family emergency and she was great. She sent pictures, videos and was very responsive to my text messages. In the pictures and videos I could see that my boys were happy and comfortable. Highly recommend!”
“Gustavo was very responsive and he helped take care of our 2 cats, one of which required insulin shots. He updated us regularly and addressed any concerns he had to make sure we are in the loop. We are grateful for his care!”
“Sarah has been such a great sitter to our super energetic and playful dog, Tex. She is patient and kind and always sends us updates which gives us peace of mind while we’re away. Thanks for being so wonderful to our dog, Sarah!”
About: In the past I have... 🐾Helped take care of my Sister's Golden Retriever when I was in elementary school/high school. 🐾Taken care of my dog that was half Golden Retriever/Rottweiler when I was in high school/college. When I started making money for myself, I provided my dog Blue Wilderness food from Petco or Petsmart according to my dog's age. I also provided a car ramp and my old bed when my dog got old. I still remember the days when I would go to pet-friendly restaurants with my dog. I am now 38 y/o. 🐾Helped take care of my Parents' 2 Beagles in adulthood. 🐾When my Husband was younger, he also had experience taking care of his Doberman/Bloodhound. 🐾Hubby and I both love dogs! We also have 1 child together that is 3 y/o and gentle. Our Daughter also loves dogs! I have decided this time around I can be a pet-sitter over the weekends & extended due to federal holidays. I wanted to prepare my Daughter for school coming up soon, so this pocket money will help, fortunately with me and my Husband's dog expertise. 🗓I am normally available to pet-sit/go out with your dog from Friday evening when I get home - Monday evening (sometimes Tuesday evening if there is a federal holiday on Monday). If you need longer pet-sitting, please communicate with me and I'll coordinate to make it work out with my Hubby to back-up. My Mom already helps baby-sit our toddler. 🏡I have a fenced yard. If you believe your dog can hop the fence, I can provide a dog tie cable. I don't like keep dogs out too long unattended unless I'm with them due to other animals, outside temperature, etc. I care for dogs like I care for my toddler. I usually take dogs out for restroom 4x or more depending if they are showing signs they want to go outside to use the grass for restroom.
“We love Mickey! He’s trained my dog continually and kept my dog during the weekend to get him more used to other dogs and everything has gone well! We will continue training for life! Mickey is laid back and explains everything sufficiently for my family to use tactics for our dog.”
