Candace was such a wonderful sitter for my four kitties! She was very communicative and kept in touch with photos, which I really appreciate. I know she spent much time with my babies as they were very happy when I arrived home. She is definitely an animal lover and I couldn't recommend her more for your pets.

Dean and his partner were very easy to work with and very organized. They left me with a list and daily task to do. Olivia is such a dainty and friendly little cat. Olivia stole my heart. Dean was also very accommodating. I’d definitely come back to house sit for them in the future.

Rudy and Rusty were a dream to care for! They are sweet and snuggly and so friendly. Rusty is a bit shy at first but he came around to us in no time. Their home is lovely; comfortable, clean, in a very nice walkable neighborhood close to the dog park and anything you could possibly need, and also close to downtown Ottawa where we were able to explore many neat things! They also have a beautiful fenced in back yard and garden we really enjoyed spending time in. Jetje and Dave are fantastic hosts. They left great detailed instructions, responded lightning fast to the few small questions I had, and even made us a delicious cake to enjoy during our stay. We would absolutely care for them again and if you have the opportunity to book a sit for them, do it!

I really enjoyed sitting for Austen and his awesome dog Karl!

Karl is so laid back and intelligent. It took us no more than a few minutes to get acquainted and comfortable with each other. Karl loves saying hi to new people in the building elevator, hallway, and lobby. He's very curious once outside, and always well trained and gentle with passers-by. Once we're back from a walk, Karl loves having a treat and a belly rub. Miss you already Karl!

The apartment is walking distance from the zoo, Rock Creek Park, and Adams Morgan... Plus a short train/bus ride away from anything else you want to see/do in DC. 10/10 I definitely recommend!

We loved this sit! The home was incredibly located and comfortable. Molly started off a bit nervous but quickly mellowed and we adore her energy and sweet spirit. Kendall is an excellent communicator both about our stay and Molly’s care. There were no surprises and we would be so happy to sit for Molly again in the future.
