“Marlee is my go-to cat sitter whether I’m gone for a couple days or a couple weeks. My cat is always well cared for and gets so much play time - my husband and I joke that our cat likes Marlee better than us. Communication, care, and photos are everything you could ask for - 100% recommend!”


“She was flexible and so kind, the cats loved her and I really appreciate her detailed notes and bubbly personality. She was so great with my cats and easy to work with :)”


“Mark is excellent. His kind and gentle care of my two dogs is wonderful. Mark pays attention to details and truly cares. His care of my dogs gives me peace of mind during the day.”

“Betty took our two dogs for a great walk- they were active and excited and apparently wanted to go the bathroom a lot! Betty picked up after them and they enjoyed the exercise”

She is a true lover of all animals and very respectful. We just found our new permanent cat sitter! Thank you so much ?”


“Grace was amazing, She genuinely loves animals and it felt stress free leaving our fur babies with her. She knew how to take care of them and I know they loved her too! She was constantly in touch with us giving updates and taking pictures. I appreciated it so much and will 100% book again with her”


“Faith was an exceptional dog sitter who exceeded all expectations. She was punctual every day, ensuring that our pups received consistent care and attention. Faith dedicated 30 minutes each day to sit with the dogs while they did their business, showing her commitment to their well-being. Additionally, she captured lots of great pictures of the pups, which was a delightful bonus for us. Her reliability and thoughtful care made a significant difference, and we highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.”


About: I have had three dogs for the past 4 years and I have lots of experience taking care of other people’s dogs. I have most experience with small and medium size dogs. I am currently a student working part time so I have a lot of time to take care your pet and give them the attention they need. I have three small dogs of my own and a backyard that the dogs are welcome to play in. I am willing to have animals at my house or go to your home and take care of them in yours.

“Keira was wonderful and did a terrific job dropping in on my cat! My kitty is usually super shy, and I've never seen him as friendly and comfortable with a new person as he was with her - i would happily book her again!”


“It’s always a relief to find a sitter who’s dependable, consistent, and able to attend to each animal’s patterns and quirks/needs. But Heather is more than that because my cats also grew to love her (in just a week!). Six cats give paws up!”


About: Animals are Gods among us. I agree with Ricky Gervais, that "a dog loves you more than it loves itself, and that's why I worship dogs." Honestly, this gig is a bit selfish - my sweet baby Pit Mix passed away recently & I miss her terribly. I'm certain that engaging with animals will soothe this depression. I am socially awkward with humans, but I love animals. This will be therapy, a true gift, to me. I also need to exercise more and would like to be able to afford any kind of home, some day. My family has had pets since I was in kindergarten. I volunteered with Faithful Friends in High School, through which I also fostered kittens. I have taken care of my neighbors' & friends' pets while away over the years, which I equate to a collective total of ~2 years. I take medical issues very seriously & cared for my doll when she was ill. I understand how stressful & important it is. My favorite thing about walking a dog is when the folded tops of their ears bounce up and down. I work full time until ~4:30PM, but I am usually free after. I am available for boarding on the weekends. On the days I work from home (typically Monday & Wednesday), I can also provide a walk or check in during my lunch hour (1 to 2PM). There are no other animals or children in my home; your pet will have my undivided attention. I have a large partially fenced in yard, and many walking trails nearby. I'm also happy to take care of a pet in your home, if preferred.

“Abby did great taking care if our boys! I didn't receive very many in-the-moment updates/pictures which was outside of what Im used to, but she spent significant time we'll outside of the 30 minute expected window taking being present and caring for our cats. I felt safe knowing they were in good hands - no complaints.”


About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with cats, but most of my family had dogs, so I have always been around them. This love for animals also got me into the veterinary field, which I have 6 years experience in. I have years of experience walking, handling, and playing with dogs and now have the experience to give oral medications or injections if needed. I currently don’t have any dogs, but I do have 2 cats. During my day I always make sure I wake up early enough to feed them and clean the litter box. After coming home from work, I feed them dinner and spend some time brushing and playing with them. I then clean the litter box before going to bed and repeat the next day. In my home, I have installed screen doors on the entry doors to prevent my cats from escaping but so they also can see the outside activity. I have socket covers to prevent them from playing in it and make sure to cover all wires so they don’t think they are toys.

About: Ever since I was about 15 I have pet sat. I took every advantage I could and took care of all types of animals. From dogs and cats to ferrets and birds. I love all animals. I worked for a private company for 2 years and now run my own business and want to get out there more. I provide services such as walks, baths, snuggles, and overnight visits for all types of pets. I take pride in my services and want to give all animals the love and attention they deserve when their family is away from home! I'm a student who works part-time. I have loads of free time and want to spend it with your pets. I enjoy walking dogs around campus. It'll give me something to do when not studying. Most clients have specific preferences for their pets. I always ask what is needed from me to provide the best care. I stick to what is asked and make sure to ask questions when needed. I provide photos for the family at all visits and a brief update. My pets all get food specific to their dietary needs at home and get to snuggle with me in bed. If clients prefer crate home, I can do that. It's whatever you do for your pets that I will do for them, so they feel comfortable.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. Currently have 1 medium size female Lab named Sophie and two indoor male cats named Herbert and Harry both over 10 years old. Dog and Cat boarding will be a fulltime service. No other current obligations. All emergency and pet care needs would be available 24/7. Currently my husband works full time and will be available part time and I will be available for full time pet care. Our home has a large closed in breezeway that opens up to a fenced in 1/4 acre backyard. We have two indoor male cats and a 6 year old female lab named Sophie to be a friendly companion during your pet's stay with us. Our home is located within 2 miles of Delaware's White Clay Creek State Park and Maryland's Fair Hill Natural Resource center if pet owners approve of hiking adventures.

Debra D.
“I’ve known Debbie for about four years, and her personality and sense of responsibility makes her a natural fit for pet care-giving. She has watched my dogs on several occasions, feeding them, helping my older dog up when his legs weren’t working well, and always showing genuine love and attentiveness toward them. Her compassion for animals truly shines through. Debbie is currently studying social work and also works as a server in her free time. Her ability to communicate with people, whether customers or clients, combined with her warmth and empathy, makes her exceptionally well-suited for caring for both people and pets. I have no doubt she will thrive as a pet caregiver.”

“Kellie has taken care of my beagle mix (now 13) many times over the past 10 years. She has a gentle spirit that Jules fell in love with. She followed my care instructions to the letter and my dog was happy to be able to stay at home, without a crate, while I was gone. Kellie needed to take Jules for a long walk Jules at least twice a day and did so with confidence and control. I trust her with my dog and you can too!”
