We recently worked with Tracy in Frederick, MD to watch out two pups while we were away for about a week. This was the first time we asked someone who wasn't a family or immediate friend to watch our home and pups, and we would welcome her into our home again! She did an excellent job keeping us in the loop while sending adorable pictures of them playing in the yard and hanging around the house. She established a quick bond with our dogs, one of which is on anxiety medications, and it was clear they got along with Tracy well during her stay. Her support gave us peace of mind while we traveled, and we look forward to working with her agin.

Jennifer is amazing! We booked her services with little notice when our previous sitter canceled on us. We were headed down to TN to get married and we’re worried about leaving our two labs with a new person. Jennifer was amazing and our dogs loved her immediately. It was so nice getting daily updates and pictures to keep us reassured all was well! Would recommend to anyone, and especially those who are like us and have high expectations when it comes to our pets!

I highly recommend Jessica! I was extremely happy with the care she provided for my two cats and my little special‑needs dog. She was responsive whenever I reached out and consistently shared updates throughout her stay, which gave me great peace of mind knowing my pets were in excellent hands. Jessica was also very respectful of my home—it was left tidy and well cared for (trash taken out, bed made, no dishes in the sink, etc.). I’m really looking forward to booking her again the next time I travel!

About: I’ve spent my entire life around animals! From growing up in a house full of all kinds of animals and currently being a proud dog mom of 3 and snake mom of 1, to pet sitting through my teen years, to volunteering at a special needs dog sanctuary for 3 years.. there is nothing I feel more comfortable doing than hanging out with and caring for furry, scaly, or feathered friends! I am available for care all hours of the day or night weekdays and weekends! I’m happy to do late night or early mornings 😊 I want more than anything to provide everyone that trusts me with their furry babies peace of mind knowing that with me, they are genuinely safe and will always be treated like they are my very own. To say I’m a helicopter dog mom is an understatement, and I understand more than anyone the fear of unknowns when leaving your pets with a new person and I hope I can alleviate that stress from both you and your pets. From the bottom of my heart, you can trust that when your pets are with me they are in a safe space and being treated with love, care, and consideration!

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for years. I previously worked at a veterinary hospital, where I cared for pets in a kennel setting and assisted with appointments, giving me experience with animals of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and also currently furthering my vet med education. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply cuddling on the couch, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am a stay at home (expecting) mom, and my schooling is also done at home. You can rest assured knowing that your fur baby will get constant attention and affection I have ample house space and yard space for your fur baby. I also make walks apart of my daily habit so you can rest assured knowing your baby will get all the exercise they could dream of

I could not have asked for a better person to watch my pups! He provided consistent updates with photos throughout our 4 day trip, he was able to extend watching them past the agreed date due to flight mishaps. I have two very high energy dogs, that love to bark and pull during walks, I personally walk them separately. Devon was able to work on their behavior and etiquette preparing for and during walks and has consistently been able yo walk them together. On some personal thoughtful notes: Some of my orchid flowers dropped and he pressed them for me. And he even left us a welcome home note with some treats for the pups. He is such a kind and thoughtful person, never using anyone else!

She has great attention to detail, and she takes wonderful care of our home. She makes sure that our dog gets his daily walks and/or backyard exercise and most of all - lots of love! We definitely plan on using Sherri for future dog sitting! I highly recommend her as a dog sitter and a house sitter!!

Jennifer is great and we recommend her highly. She kept the boys (2 golden retrievers) entertained while we went through the moving process and went the extra mile getting the house ready for a showing while we were out of town. Wish we could take her with us when we move. The boys love her and we trust her with them and our home. We will muss you Jennifer.
