About: I have raised dogs over a decade and love all breeds! Big and small. I enjoy spending time with them and playing fetch or just hanging out on the couch! I work from home so I have time on my hands to meet each pets needs. I can give potty breaks or play fetch outside I have friendly dogs in my home and a fenced in yard outside. I also have crates if that’s what your pet is used to

About: I’ve always had pets as long as I can remember! And that’s a long time!! My husband and I have years and years of experience caring for all types of animals! From cats to bunnies, fish and hermit crabs and always dogs!! Even a bearded dragon! Right now, we have two Fox Red Labs, two outside cats, fish, and a bearded dragon… and chickens. We just raised 7 Fox Red Lab puppies as well! We have almost 4 acres for the dogs to run and have fun and we have a large fenced in play yard. As a pet mom myself, I understand how hard it is to leave your fur babies in someone else’s care! I know how hard it is to leave them! We’ve used a couple of sitters thru Rover and have had a great experience. I would be honored to be entrusted to care for your four legged family member! I am a stay at home mom, able to give lots of attention to you fur baby! They will get lots of love and will always have access to drinking water. When I do need to run an errand the pups will be crated. Our dogs love to go outside so it’s not unusual for them to go out every two hours or so which provides ample time for potty breaks and exercise throughout the day. Our whole yard is not fenced in but we do have a large fenced in play yard with plenty of room to run! I will use a leash to keep your pup safe outside of the play yard and they will never be outside unattended. We can introduce our dogs slowly, one at a time or however you are most comfortable. I prefer to have a meet and greet before booking so we make sure we’re a good match and so your pup can meet ours ahead of time.

About: I volunteered at the Humane Society of Harford County for 5 years. I walked dogs, fed them, played with them, and cleaned up their kennels. I also fostered dogs, many were adults but some were puppies. I have experience with all types of animals including reptiles, birds, and amphipeans. I have had 5 dogs of my own that I loved dearly into their old age. I currently have 3 cats, 2 corn snakes, and a goldfish. I will treat your pets like they are family. I have experience with potty training puppies and training experience though I'm not a master. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I can give them all the love and care they need. I like to keep open communication with my clients. I will send pictures of the pets to their owners each of my visits. I will follow your directions exactly as told to me.

About: I have had pets in my home my whole life, and I am an avid animal lover! Whenever I was asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, I always said veterinarian because that was the only job I knew that worked with them. I have taken care of anything ranging from your typical household pets to reptiles, and even farm animals! I am currently student teaching, so daytime hours may not be the best. But if you’re looking for a night out or getting ready for a weekend trip away, I’m your gal! I respect you, your household, and your pets and will make sure to follow whatever guidelines, schedules, or routines you would like me to follow. I will make sure your pets are safe, loved, and cared for until you return!


“Jenny is awesome! She took real good care of our fur babies and we will definitely be using her again. Lots of pictures, videos, and updates of any kind. She even used her own cleaning supplies when one of our dogs had a pee accident! Such great work ethic and passion towards the role.”


About: I’ve cared for dogs for 30+ years and take the time to learn each dog’s personality in order to provide a comfortable loving experience. We also have a dog park behind our home so your dog would get great exercise and socialization. I offer dog walks, doggie daycare and boarding seven days a week! I provide an “at home” setting for dogs so they feel the individual love and attention they deserve. I have 3acres at my home in addition to a dog park behind my home so your pet would get plenty of exercise and socialization.

About: The last thing you want to do is worry about your pet while you’re away for work or vacation - I get it! My goal is to make your worries go “POOF!” and know that while you’re away your pet is happy, healthy, and safe. I’ll work with your pet’s schedule and give them constant care and attention while you’re away. Walks twice a day? Check. Playtime? Check. Tricks and treats? DOUBLE check! After all, your pet deserves to feel like they’re on vacation, too! I believe that communication is highly important so that you can rest easy knowing your pet is in good hands. While taking care of your pet, I’ll be in contact with you sending updates, pictures, and videos of our time together. Time away from your pet no longer has to be stressful for you or your fur baby! I currently work full time from home, which allows me to be with your pet throughout the entire day. My work day is from 7am-4:30pm Monday-Thursday, and 7am-11am on Fridays. I live with my fiancé, Devin, who also helps out when needed. We live in a clean, smoke-free home at the top of a hill where there is very little traffic. There are water bowls throughout the house and plenty of treats and toys (feel free to bring your pet’s favorites as well). I also have a bathtub where I can bathe your pet if needed!

“Mia was great! We had two dogs to juggle and one that is a little tough for us and that had us worried. But she handled things with ease and provided us with updates. We will definitely be using her again!”


“Rilee is an amazing sitter, she gave detailed updates on how the visits went and my dog seemed to love when she stopped in. I had a few hick-ups on my end with the scheduling and she was more than happy to work with me thru the issue. 100% would recommend for all your animal needs.”

“Ashley did a great job dropping in our pups while we were away for a week. Ashley provided photos of my pups and I could see the trusted & loved her company. There was a day where Ashley shared my poor pup threw up liquid & took the time to drop in again to check on my girl, how thoughtful! My pups love Ashley and I will consider her again for the future.”


About: I have grown up with four german shepherds and have a cat and 2 dogs of my own. I have also taken care of a lot of my family and friends pets frequently. I work from home in Hanover so my availability is VERY open! I work from home full time and have a very flexible schedule. I am willing to travel up to 20-30 miles away, and open to further but will adjust charges for such. I have had a cat for about 4 years now. She is an indoor cat. She is up to date on all shots and treated monthly for flea and ticks. I also have two border collies that are up to date on everything as well and are fixed!


“Dara was SO awesome! I had her drop-in to watch my cat over the holidays, and my fur baby was well taken care of! I appreciated all of the photos that Dara sent, and she really went out of her way to make sure my cat was happy. I'll definitely be booking Dara again in the future, and I highly recommend her to take care of your animals!”


“Rita has been absolutely amazing with my pup Juno! She went above and beyond to make sure Juno was well taken care of. Juno has a lot of anxiety and sometimes becomes reactive when she gets nervous. Rita worked with Juno through positive reinforcement to decrease her anxiety and make Juno feel comfortable. I would 100% recommend Tita to any dog parent!”



“She was very competent and did a good job with the dogs. We are visiting from out of state and staying at a RV Park. Having her come took away the worry for me in leaving the dogs for the day. Thanks”

Valerie S.
“Val has Pet sit for us and our 4 cats and 4 dogs on several occasions over the past few years. (Almost every year since 2018.) Her reliability, consistency of their schedules (a few senior pets- both cat and dog and younger puppies), good communication, Love for our pets like they are her own (they ALL come out of hiding to see her!!!) are why we trust her to keep watch while we are away. She was always on top of things if some pets were not doing well- communicating her concerns and observations. She always kept their areas clean and made sure they were let out or walked if need be regularly for potty time or exercise. The waterbowls were always full and had fresh water and the food bowls were filled at the scheduled times. Some of our senior pets were on oral medications which were given at the correct scheduled times. We have never had cause for concern because she was on top of things and again- did I mention our pets LOVE HER?!?? (Even the ones that like to hide!). If you are considering her to watch your pet, stop looking and give her a buzz. You won’t be disappointed! She will work with you to come up with a schedule and you can do what you need to do and she will take care of your babies!”

Leigh & Devin P.
“When my brother booked his wedding in Turks and Caicos my first thought was what am I going to do with my pup? I have a 3 year old, extremely anxious, special diet golden retriever who’s never been left by herself for an extended period of time, let alone an entire week. Leigh offered to take her in. I was relieved but still very nervous. After day one I knew my buddy was in good shape. Leigh sent me pictures of my pup relaxed, having fun, and genuinely enjoying her time. Leigh even found a way to get her in the car and take her to the dog park! I was able to relax and enjoy my brother’s special week all because of the loving care Leigh gave my dog. Now when we walk, my buddy sits and stares at her door, hoping she comes out. You will not find a more caring person for your fur baby than Leigh!”
