Needs and animals

Pet-sitting | Pool maintenance | 1 Dog

Rascal is a 3-year-old male Cavalier Spaniel. He's very affectionate, and in fact, will expect to sleep with you. He needs several walks a day. He enjoys other dogs, but most of all people.
Rascal can't be left alone for more than four hours. We can leave names of pet sitters who can come over if you are going to be sight-seeing for a day. You also might consider staying with us before or after your pet-sitting week, during which time you'll be free to go into D.C. during the days, or wherever. We are excellent hosts.

House

We have a two-bedroom, two-bath condo about 40 minutes from Washington, D.C. Our neighborhood is highly walkable; close to grocery, shops, and restaurants. Just three blocks away is a lovely area of walking trails. We have a gym. The pool is open in the summer.

Adjacent to our condo is a gated courtyard, where Rascal can run around off-leash for brief periods. He often meets his friend, Chuckles there. We will leave contact info. Chuckles' owners will be a great resource for questions and occasional pet sitting/visits. We have wonderful neighbors!

We love being near several beautiful state parks, a library, and of course the museums and attractions of Washington, D.C. We have wonderful neighbors in our building and surrounding area. There are often plays and concerts in our neighborhood venues, The Kentlands Mansion and the Arts Barn, an easy walk of a few blocks.

Tourism and Leisure

Museum
Zoo
Theater
Opera

There are fabulous restaurants and theaters within walking distance. If one chooses to drive or take the Metro into Washington, D.C., those opportunities are multiplied ten-fold! The National Gallery of Art, Air and Space Museum, Museum of Natural History, Library of Congress are all wonderul. There are numerous concert and theater venues, including the National Theater, The Kennedy Center, and Arena Stage. The National Zoo is one of my favorites. We only ask that if you are going to be away for more than a couple of hours, you call one of the pet sitters on our list. Also, feel free to come a few days before we leave so that you'd be free to spend the whole day sightseeing.

Community opinion

Mihaela U.

Québec City, Canada - July 2019

It was a pleasure to pet sit for Bailey and Aladdin. They are very sweet and well behaved pets. Bailey is the sweetest companion. The home is beautiful in a gated community, by the marina (feet away from the bedroom windows). Quiet and relaxing, very close to the historic downtown Annapolis and US Naval Academy. Patricia and her husband are beautiful people inside out. We were delighted to meet them.
