Your dog won't want to leave!
Pet care experience
Skip the kennels and treat your pup to a comfortable and happy weekend retreat. Your dog will enjoy long walks, trips to the park, a new furry friend (my dog Pugsy!), then relax with all the comforts of home. I live in a large, two bedroom apartment in Midtown Mt Vernon. Plenty of space for another dog or two! The neighborhood is pet friendly and safe. You can relax and enjoy your trip knowing your pup is comfortable, safe, and happy. Follow us on instagram: @ThePugsyLife About this sitter: Hi! I'm Hollie! I'm a 29yr old Photographer/Graphic Designer living in Mt Vernon/Midtown, Baltimore. I would love to dogsit/housesit for you. I telework several times a week, so I will be home a lot during the day, to keep your pup company. And on the weekend, my attention will be all for your fur baby. We will go on several walks, play outside (if you have a yard), and will take trips to the park. Your dog will be loved and cared for as if she/he were my own. I will also collect your mail, ensure your house always appears "lived-in" from outside viewers, clean, and water plants while you are away. I do have a 2yr old, 28lb Cocker Spaniel/Pug that will need to come with me. She gets along well with other pets and is fully house trained. She will definitely help keep your pup active and distracted from your absence. I grew up with three large dogs in the home at once, so bringing Pugsy along definitely won't distract me from taking care of your dog, nor lessen the quality of care your dog receives. Unfortunately, I am highly allergic to cats. So, if you have a cat in addition to your dog, I apologize for being unable to petsit for you. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask or request a meet-up. Thank you! ~hollie I have 6 years of housesitting experience, ranging in timespan from weekends to months. My most extensive housesitting stay has been spending a full 3 months at a home in Roland Park. I have owned dogs my whole life, ranging from 28lbs to 140lbs. I love dogs and haven't met one that I don't get along with. I am also comfortable with all dog breeds and activity levels. Why I love dog sitting I've loved dogs my whole life! My family has owned numerous dogs over the years, all of them mutts adopted from rescue shelters or pounds. They are such amazing animals, and I could never live without one. About my yard n/a My experience administering medication Yes; just write down instructions before you leave, so I can follow them precisely.
Reviews
My dog loved his stay with Hollie! I was really nervous because I'm new to the area and this was the first time I've left him with a sitter instead of a friend but Hollie is super nice and assured me he would be taken care of. She sent me updates and pictures throughout his stay and I could tell he was lovin life. I also liked that she had a dog of her own that he could play with. She gave me recommendations for vets and dog parks in the area which I really appreciate. I would definitely recommend her and would choose her again in the future.
Hollie has taken care of my dog many, many times. Sometimes it's just for an afternoon, and sometimes for long vacation. We just got back from 2 weeks away, and Hollie watched her again. She takes great care of our Daisy, gives her lots of attention and walks, takes her to the park, and even sends us pictures. She has watched Daisy both at our house and at hers. It works out well for all of us.

A typical day
Here's where we'll take our walks Mostly around the Midtown-Belvedere/Mt Vernon city streets. It's perfectly safe, and very dog friendly. Your dog will enjoy the sights and absolutely love the smells. Your dog's sleeping arrangement I allow my dog to sleep on my bed, so your pup will be offered the same courtesy. However, if you prefer, you may also provide a caged home for your dog to sleep in, if that is their routine. Time I'll spend with your dog Tons! We'll go on plenty of walks and romp around the house. If you say it's okay, we'll also take a trip to the dog park to get some good run time in. Time I'll spend with your dog I telework several times during the week, so your dog will almost never be alone. On the weekends I will definitely be around the entire time. We will go on 5-6 walks a day, play outside (if you have a yard), and go to the dog park. Your pup will be loved and cared for as if he/she were my own. Extra house-sitting services I will bring in your mail, water indoor and garden plants, lightly clean your home, and ensure your home looks "lived in" to outside viewers. If you have any other requests, please ask.
