Our History
Dog Child is owned by Jessica and Lisimba. The love for their dog, Kalua, inspired their passion to care for pet children. Kalua joined the family in 2004. Her intelligence, willing to please and athletic ability motivated them to learn more about dog behavior and training, as well as information about other types of pets.
In 2005 they moved to Washington DC from Florida. While Lisimba attended law school, he had the opportunity to temporarily dog walk for neighbors and soon after for many others as well. Jessica was able to assist with dog walking while working as an HR professional at a Pediatric HIV/AIDS non-profit organization. They soon realized how much they enjoyed caring for pet children. They also realized how difficult it was to go out of town or have the flexibility to work late without having their own consistent pet care provider. Dismayed by the quality of professional pet care and the limited access to friends and family to care for their pet child, they decided to launch their own pet care business in 2010.
Dog Child acquired their business license in October 2010. In January 1, 2011 Dog Child was fully operational.
