House Sitting Arcadia

“Lisa is a fantastic pet sitter! Our mini-Australian Shephard loves her! She is a great communicator and provided updates and pictures of our dog! We highly recommend her!”

Catina B.

“Justine did a great job with my crazy crew and provided timely updates with super fast communication. I also appreciated her being available on relatively short notice. Would definitely reach out to her again for future needs!”

Lisa R.

“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter to care for our two very active German Shorthaired Pointers! One of our dogs is especially anxious during storms, and Brianna handled the situation with so much patience and compassion. It was such a relief knowing our pups were not only well-exercised but also emotionally supported while we were away. We came home to a spotless house and two happy, relaxed dogs—no small feat with this energetic duo! We’re incredibly grateful for the care and attention Brianna provided and wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Highly recommend!”

“This was our first time having Emma house sit with our two pups. She was fantastic! Everything went smoothly and we loved that she spent time with them, not just dropping in and out. We already have her booked for another job.”

Dawn R.

“Benjamin is tentative, kind, and caring with Maizie. I’ve used rover in the past and it’s safe to say he goes beyond the standard of taking care of your pup.”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, bearded dragons and snakes for family, friends, and strangers over several years. I am willing to take care of any animal(s), no matter the temperament or how exotic it may be. As long as there are clear instructions and direct communication, I am able to be responsible any animal(s). My primary job is with Maryland Department of Natural Resources and with certain assignments there is no rescheduling. This assignments are generally on weekends from 11:00 AM - 5:00PM. I am still able to arrive early in the morning and in the afternoon on these days, otherwise that I am available most of the week. My calendar will be up to date at the beginning of every month. I can come to your home but I cannot use my own. I am willing to send pictures of your animal(s) every minute if you miss them and need to know how they are doing.

“Owen was fantastic. Not only was he responsive but the dogs were well taken care of. They were walked, fed, played with, and given a lot of love. While he was watching the pups he also kept the house clean. I got daily pictures ands updates which helped to put my mind at ease about my pups while I was on vacation. I will use Owen again”

“Danielle is an above and beyond sitter. She was very communicative and cared for my girl like she was her own. She will without a doubt be the first person I call from now on. I can’t endorse her enough!”

Shaune H.

“Hannah recently watched our golden retriever and Siamese cat rescue while we were away for a wedding, and from start to finish we couldn't be more impressed. From the very first meeting, her professionalism and compassion was what really stood out - she immediately was able to put our pets (and us!) at ease. When we came back, our babies were in excellent spirits and we found our home looking better than we left it, which was very much appreciated. Hannah is a rare find - reliable, professional, and genuinely kind-hearted. We will definitely be booking her again and cannot recommend her enough to any pet parents looking for peace of mind.”

About: I took care of my family dogs and cats, my own dogs and cats, rabbits, and I've helped friends with their dog, mostly to feed and walk them too. I used to train our own puppies back in the day, but it's been awhile. I just retired from being an elementary school counselor, so I'm more available to walk and care for animals. My schedule is fairly open if I'm not on a travel trip, so I can walk dogs during the day most anytime and care for some animals when needed. We don't have furry pets, because my husband has an allergy. However, I want to be with dogs without him as much as possible. I do walk my neighbor's dog when she's not available.

“The animals were all cared and provided for. Nevaeh was very responsive to messages and arrived/left on time. Everybody was happy and healthy when we got back!”

Lucas K.

“Alexxis was wonderful with our dog Maddie. She was very communicative with planning and sharing photos/updates and flexible when our drop off time changed and with dropping of Maddie at our home. Would recommend and use again!”

Chelsea K.

“Donna did a wonderful job staying with our dog Stanley, he was calm and happy when we got back. Knowing he was in good hands made it easy to enjoy our vacation. I highly recommend her, thanks Donna!”

Lori M.

“Absolutely! Here’s a warm, genuine Rover review: Ally was absolutely wonderful with our dog Daisy! She took care of her for a long weekend and was so sweet, communicative, and attentive throughout her stay. We felt completely comfortable knowing Daisy was in such great hands. To top it off, all of our fire alarms unexpectedly went off while we were away, and Ally handled the situation so calmly and responsibly. We really appreciated how she kept us informed and took care of everything. We would absolutely recommend Ally and would love to have her watch Daisy again!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for years now. From my own to sitting to volunteering at shelters they’ve become such a huge part of my life. I have experience with everything from puppy to old and all types of energy levels and training. I’ll be sure to take care of your dog as my own! I’m available weekdays after 4 and most weekends as well as early mornings. Weekends I have typical all day availability for a variety of needs. I have a nice complex park for the dogs to play in. Whatever rules you want your dog to follow in your own home I’ll make sure they do! Safety is always the number one priority.

About: I am an avid dog (and cat!) lover and have had experience working with other various types of animals over the course of the last 12 years! I previously was a dog trainer and have been trained to work with dog aggression and handling anxious dogs. Currently I own one dog and two cats. My dog’s name is Dzeko and he does well with a variety of animals. My three cats are named The Girl and Malenia. I love hiking and running so I can exercise your energetic pup as much as needed! If you have questions or need help with your dog’s behavior we can also discuss training. I’m currently in Hawaii for the next couple of months, traveling while working remotely. I work Monday through Thursday in the mornings and wrap up around noon, which leaves me with plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings for walks, drop-ins, or just spending time with your pets. My weekends are completely open as well. Since I’m here to experience the island at a slower pace, I’m intentionally keeping my schedule flexible and would love to combine my time here with caring for pets. I’m also available for house sitting, so I can provide more consistent care and keep your pets company throughout the day if needed. I try to keep everything as close to your pet’s normal routine as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away! I follow all feeding, walking, and care instructions closely, and I’m very attentive to behavior changes or anything that seems off. I’m clean and respectful of your space! I’m also mindful about safety, making sure doors, gates, and any pet specific precautions are always handled properly. I also like to stay in touch and send updates/photos so you can feel at ease knowing your furry friend is happy and well cared for while you’re away!

“Ashlyn was incredibly flexible with scheduling and did fantastic with my reactive, derpy, pibble! Thank you Ashlyn for your responsiveness and being there for Katniss ?”

“We have never had a pet sitter before, and our 4 cats do well on their own for a few nights, but our new puppy needed care while we traveled out of state. Megan was fantastic! She asked clarification questions we wouldn't have thought of, took excellent care of all our fur kiddos, and we loved her updates and photos throughout the sitting experience. Our home was as we left it and Megan was genuinely enjoyable to interact with! Additionally, she is a veterinary technician and that provides extra comfort. Our kitties and puppy would gladly hang out with Megan again!”

About: My name is Jocelyn, I am a barista with a decent amount of time outside of work. I have had pets since I was little. I grew up with two dogs (Cocker spaniels) and have raised my current dogs (English Springer Spaniels) by hand. I am used to high-energy dogs, and love giving your furry friends a good snuggle. I have house-sat for friends before, and reliably text with updates/photos/questions as needed. In my care currently, I have one senior guinea pig, and a chameleon. I have had guinea pigs for 8 years total, and would be open to caring for them as well! I currently work as a barista at Starbucks, and am typically in work by 5 am and off work by 1 pm unless otherwise stated. My schedule can be sporadic as I am able to pick up shifts as needed. I raised my two English Springer Spaniels Chip and Charlie by hand, and they are very high energy. I am reliable on keeping food/water dishes clean and full, or filling them at a time requested as needed. I have my own vehicle, and can drive to/from your house as needed, as well as take pets to the vet if necessary. I love walking dogs, as well as offering efficient snuggling time. I’d be happy to send photos of your pets to you!

“Gianna and her dog, Whiskey, are wonderful. My dog, Gary loved having them house sit. The dogs had a wonderful time playing and Gianna took excellent care of Gary. We will be repeat clients!”
