“Very happy to have found Brent!”
2. Melissa Z.
“Melissa has been taking care of my cat off-and-on for about the last 5 years, and she is excellent. My cat is now old, grumpy, and insulin-dependent (he was always grumpy, but old and insulin-dependent are new features). Melissa takes excellent care of him and lets me know right away if something seems off. I couldn't recommend her more highly!”
3. Shannon D.
“Shannon has continued to work well with our dog, her updates and thoughtful notes are wonderful to get. When scheduling issues arise, she has been upfront and prompt in contacting both me and my partner to notify us. She continues to be professional in her walks in terms of length of time & distance and provides awesome photos at the end of each walk. We thank you for all your hard work, she is a great fit for our pet.”
4. Erin K.
“Erin is always responsible and caring to my cat and dog.”
5. Madison B.
“Madison did such a great job of taking care of my cats. I will be using her again :)”
6. Claudia T.
“Claudia is an amazing pet sitter and gets our highest recommendation. She was very consistent in letting us know how our dogs were doing and spent quality time with them during each visit. We were 100% confident that the dogs were being loved and given attention, as we could see how happy and at ease the dogs were in all the pictures she shared with us. We will definitely ask Claudia to watch the dogs again the next time we are away.”
7. Kaela T.
“First I'd like to say how great Kae KaeT. Is about communication, we were going to a wedding on a fri-sat in busy Annapolis and contacted her last minute to see if she could watch our dog, and she immediately contacted us back through the app within seconds of placing the request. She did a great job taking care of our dog for two visits across two days.”
8. Tobi G.
“I couldn’t think of a better person for this job. Tobi loves animals and often finds herself in settings where she can spend time with happy go-lucky pups! She is the owner of a happy and healthy dog herself, and has logged many volunteer hours working with foster agencies and shelters to ensure the less fortunate doggies find their furever homes. She is trustworthy, honest and responsible. Perfect dog sitter material!”
9. Lorena A.
“Thank you so much for taking great care of our Pup while we were away Lorena! I highly recommend Lorena to anyone who wants to have the sense of security for your pet while away. Consistent updates and photos the entire time. Thank you again for everything Lorena!”
10. Tara B.
“Tara was so wonderful with my pup! She is communicative, reliable and friendly. I trust her in my home and with my fur baby. Highly recommend!”
11. Julion S.
“Julian did great with our girls! They were all haply and healthy when we got home, and we got detailed updates :-)”
12. Christopher C.
“Chris has taken care of my pets on multiple occasions whether it’s staying overnight when I’m away or popping in to check on my cat during the day. My pets adore him and he truly is an animal whisperer! My cat is easy going but my dog is fairly reactive, anxious and can be hard Couldn’t recommend him enough as a top notch care giver who always goes the extra mile for my pets!”
13. Aaron Z.
“I highly recommend Aaron as a pet caregiver. His responsibility and genuine affection for animals are evident in every interaction. Our pets were well cared for and happy under his watch For the last 3 years. Honestly I would say he had been the only person to be able to tire out my pup”
14. Amanda M.
“Amanda was great! She was super communicative and flexible and took good care of my boy. She even cleaned up his giant mess when he knocked over a bottle of olive oil (which would have been quite awful to come home to after vacation!) I would definitely recommend her and use her cat sitting services again!”
15. Cristian G.
About: I've had pets all my life and I'm starting to care for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, and of all different breeds and sizes. I currently work full time, I work 3 days remote at home and 2 days in the office. I'll have plenty of time to be there for your fur baby. I am very active, I go running, take long walks as well as hiking with my pup. He is very friendly with other dogs and loves to have company. Any special needs, diets or behaviors I will need to know in order keep your fur baby happy and comfortable.
16. Fallon B.
“Fallon was wonderful! Very communicative and reliable. Our Lab was in excellent hands with Fallon visiting him multiple times a day while we were away. We will be in touch again. Thank you so much!!”
17. Jahborne D.
“Jahborne is the ultimate pet sitter. Their ability to turn a mundane day into a pet paradise is simply amazing. He does outstanding every time I’ve left my fury babies with him; I’d recommend him to anyone wanting their pets to be well taken care of. Leaving your pets in Jahborne’s care isn't just leaving them with a sitter – it's an exclusive vacation for your furry pals.”
18. Devon N.
“Devon is more than just a dog sitter and walker. He is a huge relief to me and my wife we we are away from our beloved dogs. He's respectful, kind and caring. I know he spent far more time than he had to to make sure our dogs were confidant and happy when we used his services. It would be a mistake not to use Devon for your next trip or daily dog walking needs.”
19. Tabitha S.
About: I have been caring for cats, dogs, and several other different types of pets for myself, family, and friends for over 30 years! I have even helped with training!
