1. Gail O.
“Gail took great care of our cat for about a week. She was very thorough in thinking through all the information she would need to take care of him, and sent us a copy of her notes so that we could add or revise. She clearly loves animals! All of the communication was extremely clear and easy! I also appreciate that she sent cute pictures each day. I recommend her very highly!”
2. Juliet L.
“First walk with our boy Ziggy and she was great. On time, took him out to the dog park, he came back tired. All you can ask for! Super nice and asked all the right questions. We felt very comfortable with her.”
3. Cody E.
“Cinder is often shy around new people, but she took to Cody quickly. He’s clearly experienced around dogs—we already set up more walks with him. I’m sure Cinder will be happy to see him next time!”
4. Ainsley F.
“Grateful as always for Ainsley!”
5. Nicholas B.
“Nicholas is reliable and cares so much for our dog. He’s flexible when we have a last minute need and communicative about what he’s able to do. We’re so grateful!”
6. Jessica M.
“Jessie is one one of the most kind and caring people I know, especially when it comes to four-legged friends. She’s a devoted parent to Mozzarella and Pig (her beautiful cats) and they’re always one of her first considerations when hosting an event, making plans, or considering a life change (moving, etc.). I think she’d make an excellent caregiver for any pet, and anyone would be lucky to have her services.”
7. Kaitlyn K.
“Kaitlyn was great and did a wonderful job walking and checking in on our dog with separation anxiety. She kept us updated on our dog and took great care of him!”
8. Ethan G.
“Ethan is very responsible and playful with pets! He watched my 2 cats for a weekend last month, and sent pictures of the cats for me to see how they were doing. Both of them looked as happy as cats can look! I wouldn’t hesitate to ask Ethan to cat-sit again, I highly recommend him as a pet sitter.”

12. Christina D.
“My Australian shepherd, Leia, does spinning, shrieking laps of excitement around Christina anytime she comes over. I don’t even get that kind of welcome home.”
13. Sarah W.
“Sarah is the most responsible person in the world! And very affectionate and playful with pets. I would vouch for her 100 percent to take care of your dog, cat, fish, turtle, home, yard, anything. Grab her while you can!”
14. Angie Q.
About: Update: only available in NW DC for current petsitting ( Gtown, Glover/Cleveland park, Cathedral Heights/ Grover Park and N to Bethesda) I would love to care for yor pet! Please read through my full profile to ensure we are a good match. I've had pets all my life and have cared for friends and family's pets while away. If caring for your pet at your home will maintain their normal schedule and provide lots of TLC. Walking, feeding, playing, hanging out to keep them company. They are the priority. Love kitties as well as pups. Walkies as scheduled, with treats and play time. I'm flexible to their needs. I know pets, and want to know about yours so they are happy while you are away. Spent last 20 years in Corp America, I'm professional, trustworthy and reliable. Recent transplant from AZ, and love being back in NW DC. Must love dogs, and I do! Love the purrrrr of kitties too! Typically, only available weekends or long weekends (holidays). Exceptions depend on my work schedule (I do work from home), so please check especially if you get in a bind. Really strong pups, even in my limit of 40 lbs, may not work. I do like pitties, but they can just be too strong for me unless well trained on a lead.. it really goes for any dog over 20 lbs (hope that makes sense). For boarding in my home- Pet dependent. 1 dog only, female only, must be housebroken- take 4 walkies a day. My current pup is NOT good with yappy breeds...
15. Becca M.
“Becca was beyond wonderful; by far the best communicator and animal lover we've ever hired and that says a lot as we've had as many as 7 pets at a time and often need assistance. Becca sent images of our dog every visit and checked in and out with us via text for every visit. She's simply the best; Very Highly Recommended!!!”
16. Madison M.
“Madison took amazing care of my dog Bowie! After seeing how bonded she is with her dog Willa, I knew she would be a great fit for us. She's completely invested in making sure Bowie is safe, healthy, loved and having tons of fun while he's with her. She sent tons of pics. Importantly, Bowie is always in a great mood when I pick him up. I will definitely use Madison again & again!”
17. Shela H.
“It’s been a pleasure working with Shela for weekday walks with my 2 y/o mini schnauzer, Gemma. Shela is punctual for walks and a responsive communicator. I always enjoy seeing photos of her and my dog’s adventure for the day in the post walk reports. Gemma enjoys her weekly walks with Shela and I’m grateful to know my pup is in good hands under her care!”
18. Kathryn G.
“She is so sweet”
19. Margaret M.
“Margaret is great. She comes in to feed and walk my dog Venus when I’ll be out late. She is super-reliable and asked me a number of questions to make sure everything was just so. I happened to come home early last night when she was still there - Venus is clearly very attached to her and Margaret is a super nice person. I highly recommend her!”
20. Anna N.
“Anna pitched in last minute to walk our dog when life got in the way. She was professional with us and kind to our dog. Sent great pictures from the park. Highly recommend!”
