“Charles and Monica were awesome! They did a meet & greet with the pups which made us feel so comfortable. They were responsive and punctual. I will be booking them again. They are a great team and it’s a plus if you have multiple dogs or a XL breed like our Great Dane!”



“My dog has been walked several times by Connie and it’s been nothing short of quality and attention to detail. And she’s such a fantastic dog person, Jake just loves seeing her.”


“Dominique is absolutely amazing with my dog Scarlet. From our initial meet and greet and all of her time and questions about my dog's specific needs, I knew she was a really caring and experienced dog handler. She knows my dog (unfortunately) loves to eat things off the ground and has to be watched liked a toddler, so she's incredibly attentive (and patient) with Scarlet. Would give Dominique 10 stars if I could and grateful to have her walking Scarlet on a weekly basis!”

About: I've been taking care of pets since elementary school, starting with helping neighbors. I have a natural affinity with all animals and am known for my patience in understanding and addressing their unique needs. I have my own dog, whom I've been caring for over the past nine years. Additionally, I've frequently looked after family members' dogs during their vacations or whenever they needed a sitter. My experience, combined with my genuine love for animals, ensures that every pet in my care receives the utmost attention and affection. I am currently available from 6 am until 11 pm for all your pets needs. I do have flexibility in my schedule so if anything needs to be discussed I am definitely open to that! In my home, pets enjoy a comfortable, clean, and supervised environment. I maintain a regular routine for feeding, exercise, and rest to keep them happy and healthy. I have a secure backyard for safe outdoor play and regular walks to keep them active and stimulated. When caring for pets in my client's home, I adhere strictly to the provided care instructions and routines. I maintain open communication with the owners, providing regular updates and photos to reassure them that their pets are well taken care of. I am vigilant about home security, ensuring all doors and gates are properly closed and locked.

“First would like to say great app it was my first time ever using an application like this. Second, Jennifer was great with zoro as a new puppy he is a handful, but Jennifer was able to walk and play with zoro. She was even able to clean his mess and provide water for zoro.”


“Erika had to be the best dog walker I’ve ever had. I would honestly, never want to use anyone else. I had a trip out of town that ended up having multiple flight delays and cancellations. I ended up having to extend the care last minute — she graciously worked with me on a moments notice. She was very polite and charismatic at meet and greet, took phenomenal care of Athena, was constantly quick to respond, kept me updated, sent photos, had full flexibility. She also helped work through any logistic issues efficiently and empathetically. My electronic lock to front door broke due to battery and she was at leasing office first thing, handling the situation for me. She made sure it was fixed and reassured me through my travels. She took my trash out. Left a thank you card. From start to finish she went above and beyond. It honestly felt like she treated my dog and home as her own, which is rare to find in sitters. Tremendous dog care provider. Would highly, highly recommend.”


About: While I’ve never had the chance to own a pet of my own, I’ve always loved animals and have been deeply involved in helping care for them. I’ve helped raise and care for two cats and three dogs within my close network of friends and family by taking part in everything from feeding, walking, training to playtime and building trust. Through these experiences, I’ve learned how to read animal behavior, respond with patience and calm energy, and understand the daily needs and routines that keep pets happy and healthy. I may not have had my “own” pet yet, but I’ve shown up for animals like they were my own and I am looking forward to caring for animals while I'm exploring new opportunities in my career. I'm currently available full-time in the DMV area [Mon-Sun] between the hours of 0500 & 1800. I'm willing to travel to build a customer base. Caring for animals comes natural for me. I have a keen sense of awareness and can anticipate and meet the needs of animals just through observing their breathing, posture, and reactions to environmental stimuli. I always travel with water, treats, and blankets to account for changes in weather or in case of emergency.

There are also wide open pastures that are great for a game of chase or fetch. My home is set up for any kind of care. At our home; your animal will be made to feel at home.

About: With over 15 years of caring for pets, I truly love every moment—whether it’s walking playful pups, snuggling up with a sleepy cat, or spending quality time giving pets all the love, cuddles, and attention they deserve. I have free time early mornings, day hours including lunchtime, and later evening hours. I love to take walks and spend time outside so this will help incorporate income into what I am already doing. *****please specify your location when booking. I can only accept jobs within walking distance of the hospital or on a bus route.****** In the clients home, I am respectful of house rules and go with whatever the family has set in place. I am responsible by doing what’s excepted of me and nothing less.

About: I’m a mom of two boys, a part-time preschool teacher, ordained minister, and accomplished artist. But I have a passion for animals and would love to help you with them day to day or when you are going away. I've had dogs all of my life but truly appreciate all animals! I also am very familiar with simple training such as potty training, sit, lay, come, etc. Pets are a bright spot in our lives and deserve all the love and care! It’s important to me that you get updated during care so that you know your furry family member is well taken care of! From September-May I work part time and am available after 12:15. Weekends may also be available for care. Spending time with animals is a true highlight of the day. Walks, play fetch, and may even help train them for basic commands. I have a large fenced yard if drop off care is needed. My dog is a 50lb and 15lv mixed breed. It is essential that your dog is up to date on vaccinations and is friendly with kids and other dogs.

About: Hello, my name is Nailah! I’m a devoted and dependable dog caregiver offering quality overnight boarding and heartfelt care that’s tailored to your dog’s unique needs. I’m a proud dog mom of two lovable Labradoodles—Ginger (4) and Kai (2). Their playful spirit and gentle hearts have filled my life with so much joy and have also given me meaningful, hands-on experience with affectionate, high-energy breeds. One of my most cherished experiences was raising a litter of 11 Labradoodle puppies, including Kai. That journey taught me the importance of patience, routine, and unconditional love when caring for dogs at every stage of life. Whether your dog is a curious puppy or a laid-back senior, I welcome them into my home as part of the family. ❤️🩹 My goal is always to create a space where dogs feel safe, calm, and loved; just like they do at home. I believe that trust and communication are key!! I’ll gladly keep you updated with messages, pictures, and check-ins so you feel connected and at ease while your dog is with me. Their happiness and well being mean everything to me, and I’m here to give them the same love and care I give my own. Pet care is a regular part of my daily and weekly routine. I prioritize feeding, exercise, playtime, and attention to ensure my dogs feel happy and cared for. When caring for pets in my home, I prioritize safety by maintaining a clean, secure environment. I supervise closely, provide plenty of attention, and communicate regularly with owners to build trust and ensure each dog’s comfort and well-being.
