“Cora was an excellent sitter that got Ozzy and Dee out for many walks. They loved her and she was attentive and an extremely good communicator which put our minds at ease. Definitely will look to book again and highly recommend to all pet owners!”
“Molly is great with my puppy. She takes good care of her and plays with her. Molly is very responsive. Sends daily updates and pictures. Follows care instructions very well. And is a pleasure to work with. I strongly recommend her.”
“Really appreciate Jared's attention to detail. Our pets have a somewhat complicated feeding schedule! Communication level was great and gave us peace of mind while we were away.”
“Emily was very responsible in caring for our difficult but beloved cat. When there was a problem, she let us know immediately, and was more than willing to try anything to help solve it. Giving him his medications proved to be impossible, but Emily persisted in taking good care of him. She obviously loves animals and is a mature young woman.”
“Paola was an absolutely incredible sitter for our special needs cats. She was very attentive, communicated about our kitties regularly, and was easily reachable for any questions we had. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our cats, Paola!”
About: Hi! My name is Aubrey, and I’ve been pet sitting for over 5 years caring for all kinds of animals — from household pets to farm animals. I have experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels, whether they’re playful puppies and kittens or senior pets needing extra patience and care. I’ve also raised two puppies of my own, so I’m very familiar with puppy care, training, routines, and the patience and attention young dogs need. As a college student and future grad student at UMD, I have a very flexible schedule, especially over the summer and into next semester. I’m available for overnight stays, daily check-ins, walks, feeding, medication administration, and giving your pets plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I understand every pet has different needs, and I always make it a priority to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! As a college and future grad student here at UMD, I have a flexible schedule with availability for overnights, walks, drop-ins, and pet care. I always make sure to ask questions not only about your puppy but your house and regular routines. Health in animals is very important while you’re away so I always ask to have detailed notes or instructions.

Your pups comfortability is my first priority. I want this to be a fun and enjoyable experience for your dog and will do my best to make sure that happens.

I am currently doing my masters at UMD and I am usually free in the day because my classe are mostly scheduled in the evening I live in apartment housing, well it has a park and lot of space to walk around. I can come to your house and walk them around.
“My wife and I are extremely satisfied with the care Charlotte provided for our dog Teddy. From the moment we got home, we could tell how happy and well cared for he was. It really gave us peace of mind during our trip. Charlotte was punctual, attentive, and followed all of our instructions. We also really appreciated that she took the time to do a meet and greet beforehand to make sure we were a good fit. That meant a lot to us. During that conversation she learned about our travel destination and since she was familiar with the area, she went above and beyond by sharing helpful tips and a great list of places for us to check out. While we were away she sent us photos here and there, which made us feel even more comfortable knowing Teddy was in good hands. We truly feel like we didn’t just find a pet sitter, we made a new friend. Thank you Charlotte for taking such great care of Teddy. We would absolutely recommend her to family and friends.”
“Katiana was awesome with my 2 pups! She arrived on time and sent many photos and updates throughout the day. My pups absolutely loved all the attention and trips to the dog park! Thank you so much for taking such great care of them!!”
“Kymberlee took good care of my senior dogs, one of which who requires twice daily medication. She communicated well and sent a lot of photos, which I appreciate. House was left in great condition. Thank you for watching our dogs again!”
“Giovanna was great with my very anxious dog (and his anxious owner). My dog can be difficult and doesn't trust people he doesn't know. Giovanna followed all instructions with patience and care. She was communicative, respectful, and responsible. I came home to a clean house and a happy dog, which is all one could ask for!”
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs since I was 6. I took main responsibility of my dogs when I was 9 years old and I have experience with many different breeds including Bully breeds. I know how to properly train, discipline, reward, feed, walk, and bathe pets. I am currently student at university so I would love to spend my weekends taking care of your pets. My schedule is flexible and I’m willing to spend my nights to watch your pets. I would also love to take afternoon walks and would love if your furry friends could join me. I respect any wishes you have for how you would like your pets to be within the house. I can keep your pet crated if you prefer or have them roam the house while keeping a close eye on them. I constantly pay attention to your pets and watch for any signs that they may show.
“Our skittish older dog won’t let anyone but us walk her, but on day 1 Shamiso prevailed and she walked happily with her. Very happy to have Shamiso to look after our two (pretty high maintenance) pups while we’re gone - really puts our minds at ease.”
“Gabs did a great job with my pup, Lula Mae. Lu was well cared for and I got great communications & updates. Gabs also left our home spotless, which was much appreciated when I got home from my trip! We look forward to booking with Gabs again in future!”
“Keaton was AMAZING. We got multiple adorable pics and updates daily, so appreciated! They provided absolutely perfect care to our babies, one being a senior cat who needs daily injections and a bit of extra care to get her calories in. Not only that, but they went above and beyond keeping our house tidy and handling tasks that were beyond what we had even discussed. We will absolutely be booking them again. Thank you Keaton!”
“Maria was so great! I loved that she wanted to do a meet and greet beforehand. I can tell Shiloh was well taken care of. Even when I got a little worried, she was able to quickly reassure me. I definitely plan on booking her again for my future trips if she’ll have us :)”
“You will not find a better sitter than Christina. I have had probably 7 dog sitters over the past 5 years and she is hands down the best one. I always get so nervous leaving my dogs, but I hope we never lose Christina...I felt comfortable the entire time. She is incredibly friendly and personable, trustworthy, responsive, and went above and beyond in caring for our home and the dogs. She also helped us without a second thought when our travel plans changed. Our home was emmaculate when we returned and the dogs were actually waiting in her guest room when we got back 😂 I take this to mean they loved her. One of my dogs is very timid and she immediately attached to Christina and other dog took no time to start playing with her. Both signs that they loved her. They don't do that with other sitters. All to say, I can't recommend her enough. She is amazing and we are lucky to have met her! ❤️”

Pond ... WOW! There are many things worth praising about this incredible person and pet care giver. My fur baby, Gracie, is the luckiest dog ever! Gracie has Mom (me) and Gracie has Pond. Pond truly has the heart of an animal care giver, the sharp mind of a vet, and the empath abilities to sense and know what Gracie needed and when. Gracie's tail would wag and she would snuggle right up to Pond. I saw it! Gracie wasn't distracted by Mom; she wanted Pond's attention! Gracie has been aging over the time Pond has been caring for her, and Pond just goes with the flow of that. Pond will miss Gracies' sweet sixteen party because they're moving out of state. SO - if you are lucky enough to have Pond in your neighborhood in Austin, TXwe 2 ladies here in College Park MD will be jealous! I trust Pond with my precious baby girl. Pond stayed in my home or did visits, and even had the occasion to bring Gracie to their place. Hire Pond. They are someone you can truly trust with your most valued four legged family members! I truly wish Pond would be around to continue to love on Gracie until Gracie's final days (almost 16 is getting up there!) because of the way Pond cares for her - both in spurts of her energy and in her needing help sometimes up the steps or just her slowing down on walks. Sensitive. Responsible. Caring. Gentle. Fun. Intelligent and amazing Pond. Hire them!
100% will book again and highly recommend Steven! Steven watched over my 16 year old cat with few health issues that required extra attention. On top of that, we recently lost another cat (her companion for 15 years) and she has been lonely and high stress. We were having second thoughts about leaving on vacation. Steven did an incredible job communicating during the entire trip. He provided daily summary of how she was doing, her appetite, her energy, meds etc. He honestly made our vacation 100% more relaxing and worry free. When we came back our cat was very chill and relaxed, a great sign that she had great company and that she loved Steven. I plan to become a repeat customer and 100% recommend him. Your pet will certainly be in great hands with Steven
Meghan was beyond amazing with our anxious dog and standoff-ish cat. Our dog seemed to attach to her right away and was spoiled with all the walks, belly rubs, and pets he could ask for. Every picture she sent showed a super happy, comfortable pup. Our cat even came in for some pets herself and gave Meghan some well-earned head butts. Meghan was perfectly communicative whenever anything came up and kept us super in the loop of how they were doing. I seriously cannot say enough good things. We are so glad to have found her!!

Landy took amazing care of my dogs while I was away! She gave lots of updates and was super responsive so I never worried at all. It was a huge relief to know they were in safe and caring hands. My dogs are reactive and can be anxious, but even during a quick meet and greet they warmed to her right away. Highly highly recommend for your pet care needs 🙂
Nichole was absolutely incredible taking care of our fur babies. She went above and beyond - offering to restock food and groceries, doing laundry, etc. in our home while we were away. In regard to the pups, I got numerous videos and photos every day of them playing, snuggling, and enjoying their time. She made sure they were active, comfortable, safe and loved. We will 100% be using Nichole again. I would recommend her for anyone looking for a house/dog sitter.
