Zoolatry Midday Dog Walking & Cat Sitting Service

I cannot recommend Zoolatry. While the dogwalking service started out well, it deteriorated over time. My biggest complaint was the lack of consistency in the timing of the walk. In addition to walking my dog, the owner would take her home while I traveled out of DC. Again, this started out well. But, after two incidents where my dog was injured in her home, I was done. Communication/​information from the owner was lacking, typically depending on me to inquire what had happened and only then receive a response. And, the monthly bill was consistently wrong, forcing me to frequently correct the amount.

This is a top-​notch dog walking and sitting service. The people at Zoolatry are always extremely accommodating and professional, and always make themselves available to walk or sit no matter what the situation or how little notice I manage to give them! Jaleesa has been walking and sitting for my dog for the past year, since we moved to the Hill, and I could not be happier with the service and how well she treats my dog. She always offers to do extra when she can, even offered to take him to the vet when he wasn’t feeling well. She is extremely dependable, and it gives me great peace of mind to know that my dog is in good hands when with her. Both Kathy and Jaleesa are very flexible and work with a sometimes crazy and ever-​changing schedule, which has eliminated the headache of arranging for dog care. Additionally, the folks at Zoolatry are very honest, always treat my house with respect and are a pleasure to work with overall.

Very reliable, very professional, and my dog LOVES the walkers. We have been using Zoolatry for many years and highly recommend them.

Kathy Murray and her staff at Zoolatry have provide reliable, excellent, professional care for my senior cat for the past 3 years. My cat requires insulin shots twice a day and he is not always an angel. I was relieved that their service was not interrupted at all during last year’s winter storms. Their pricing is reasonable and competitive.

As part of a relocation, I was placed in a corporate apartment in DC for a month with a long commute and not knowing when I needed to work late. Zoolatry was able to take care of my dog by providing dog walks often on short notice. The owner is professional and direct, and the pet sitter was friendly. Zoolatry walked my dog 11 times during the month, sometimes with only a couple hours notice. I could tell when I got home that my dog had a good amount of exercise and playtime when the pet sitter was there.
They also helped me on a lock-​out situation. When I accidently locked myself out of my apartment at 10 p.m. on a Friday night, the pet sitter graciously brought over her set of keys.

Been using them for a couple of years. Highly recommended.
