One Time • $20 – 25/hr • Starts 07/07 • Washington, DC
We need a sitter for 07/07-07/17 to watch our two dogs, Maisie (2-year-old Samoyed) and Cooper (6-year-old Maltipoo). We would prefer to board them with you. Maisie is incredibly cuddly, has a giant personality, and knows her manners very well and loves nothing more than getting ear rubs and playing fetch with her toy octopus. Cooper is a sweet, cuddly little guy who loves chewing on antlers and sitting in your lap while you work all day. They are both very healthy, fully house trained (though Maisie will steal cardboard out of the recycling bin), and have excellent leash manners. They get four walks/potty breaks per day with one being long with extra time for sniffs. They are incredibly loving and love meeting new people and being close to you throughout the day so someone who works from home would be best!
