Woodridge Sunshine For Your Canine

Pet care experience

Greetings! Do you need someone to host your sweet little four-legged bundle of joy? If so, look no further! We are a happy household of three and between my husband and I and our five-year old Pug/Dachshund mix, Kona, we are ready to smother your pup in lots of love! Kona is sweet, passive and a little shy around other dogs, so we limit our hosting to no more than two dogs at a time so that we can maximize everyone’s comfort level. We also prefer smaller dogs (no larger than 40 pounds) for this reason. We own a moderately sized two-level home in the classic Woodridge neighborhood in DC, and we have a fully fenced yard where your pup can play. And if your pup prefers being a couch potato, tell him/her to join the club; s/he is welcome to cuddle up with us on the sofa or in one of our comfy armchairs. And if your pup enjoys playtime we’ve got you covered there too; Kona has a whole bin full of balls, squeaky toys and ropes and she doesn’t mind sharing! I work during the day so I offer a morning walk and one or two evening walks, depending on your preference. We also have pee pads inside the house if your pup is trained to use them. During the day, your dog will be kept in his/her own secure space (so that all playtime between our dogs is supervised). We hope the next time you need a doggie vacay, you’ll allow us to show him/her a little Woodridge Sunshine!

Kathleen was amazing! We sent our older pug to stay with her and he was very happy. We received pictures and messages everyday which was great. She also loves and cares for the dogs a lot. She is very diligent about the dogs medicine and food and makes you feel comfortable about leaving your pet with her. She also only takes 2 dogs at a time which is really nice because the dogs get a lot of love and attention. Highly Recommended!! Thanks Kathleen!

Kathleen is thoughtful and caring, and I had no hesitation about leaving my pup with her for a long weekend! During our meet and greet she collected lots of information about feeding habits, walks, toy/playtime preferences etc. so I knew my dog would be in good hands, and she was so welcoming and happy to have my dog just roam around sniffing the house while we chatted. She has a beautiful home and a nice fenced in yard for the dogs to play in. During the stay, she sent plenty of photos, and even worked patiently with my harness-shy dog when going on walks! We'll definitely be using Kathleen again!

Katherine is the absolute best. She made sure to send us fun pics during our time away. We were confident he was in good hands. Benji felt right at home and treated him with total care. She also had a few toys to keep him engaged. After his stay, Benji was very happy and didn't miss a step in his daily routine once he came back home. Benji also loves being around Katherine's' dogs as well!! Without hesitation, we recommend Katherine and thank her for making Benji feel right at home.

Kathleen is great with pets. She is definitely a lover of them. Everytime I called her to help me with my dog, she has always given her time and assistance. She has doggy sit for me and gave me the reassurance that my dog will be fine. I was 100% satisfied. I still currently call Kathleen for advice. She is the best, when it comes to your pets.
