House Sitting in Avon Crest

About: I've always loved being around animals and enjoyed making them feel comfortable and safe. People always warn me about their pets before I meet them saying they may do too much of this or that but it truly would never bother me at all. I adore animals, especially dogs, and I've even had my own dog to take of as well. I would be taking classes over the summer, but they're asynchronous so the work load is no rush and because of that I feel like I would have plenty time to take care of any pets if needed. I always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for in their usual environment. I follow any instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, medications, and house rules. During visits and walks, I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and make sure they're getting plenty of attention and care. I also make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos whenever possible.

“Hieu and Anna were absolutely amazing and cared for our girls with love! We initially had another sitter who became ill, and Hieu and Anna stepped in and took right over! They kept us updated and sent lots of photos! I hope they will watch our girls again!! ❤️”

About: I’ve volunteered at my local Humane Society for three years consistently. I’ve had a dog for over 4 years and I’ve helped my best friend pet sit her 8 pets for the past 3 years. Im working to be a full time pet sitter at the moment. To me pet sitting doesn’t feel like work it feels as if Im home! I make sure to give each pets lots of attention. Even when Im looking away pets usually gravitate to me or follow me around .

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many kinds all my life. I currently have my own 2 year old labrador mix who I have raised since he was 5 weeks old. I absolutely adore pets and know how important they are to owners and all pet parents. I am currently home for the summer and am studying for my license exam to become a licensed mental health professional. I am very flexible and open in terms of availability. I have a fenced backyard and my own socialized and friendly dog of my own. Also have a basement, if privacy concerns arise. Thank you.

“Atiyana did a wonderful job taking care of our dig Leila. Leila was happy to meet her and took to her from day one. Thankful that she was able to care for her and feed our fish!”

About: I have taken care of my dog since he was a puppy and learned the importance and joy of taking care of an animal I would love the opportunity to do the same for your animal. I’m currently looking for work so my schedule is pretty much open I have ample amount of time to shift my schedule to whatever works best for you In a clients home I would take care of the animal make sure it smells me first and I would look for its toys so sit on the floor and play I also ask what their walking schedule is so that they can have the time to get their energy out.

“Grace did a wonderful job staying with our dog and housesitting for a weekend. She was a great communicator, sent pictures and updates. Wouldn’t have even know she was in the house. We will for sure use her again and love having someone close by we can trust with our home and pup.”

“Morgan was great with my 2 pups! He followed my instructions and went above and beyond to ensure my girls were well taken care of. I received daily updates and photos, which was great while I was out of the country. He brought in all my packages, bins and ensured I came home to a clean house. Highly recommend!”

“Lindsey was a great communicator, respectful of our home, and handled our fur babies well. She kept us informed of issues while we were away and was also responsive with any questions or concerns we had. We'd hire her again and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a responsible and caring dog sitter. Thank you Lindsey!”

“Kylie is phenomenal! My pup is so well cared for by her. I’m always excited to see the action photos from their walks! This time, we booked a few days of house sitting. It was clear she provided loving care when the next morning, after the stay, my pup went to the guest bedroom to look for her. My guy missed her. Always a good sign. Thanks Kylie!!! 💕🐾”

About: I have a 3 year old pit and she is the best. Super energetic, loves to cuddle, loves people and other dogs, and is extremely smart. I am raising and training her myself. She knows all her basic commands like sit, stay, come, down, and heel. We have begun her off leash training! I have a 1 year old cat and a gecko. I also have experience with larger animals such as horses. I have worked with horses for about 6 years on and off. I am a recent college graduate from the College of Southern Maryland with my associate's degree in Arts and Sciences. I am able to do morning and afternoon visits and walks. It is very rare, but I am usually not available in the evening or weekends. I can also book out in advance house sitting if needed. I will administer medicine if need be, feed, and fill water bowls for drop-in visits, walks, or house sits. I can also trim nails and bathe for an extra charge. On walks, they will be no more than 30 minutes.

“Starfire did a great job and kept all my animals happy and healthy! She kept us informed with texts and pictures and I appreciate all she did for us. Thanks Starfire”

About: There is no kind of pet I haven’t cared for. From special needs, disabled, old, young, wild and tame, my experience stretches for miles, as does my love! I am a full time teacher. That means I have ample time to go for walks, give belly rubs, and so much more after working hours. I care for every animal like it is my own when in my care. I have had ducks, cats, dogs, turtles, fish, hamsters. You name it, I’ve had it!

About: I’ve been a pet owner/owner basically my entire live and truly love all pets and understand and anticipate there needs. Bring your baby and it’ll be safe with me. My present in offices hours are as follow: WFH Monday-Friday., Saturday and Sunday -I’m home around the clock unless otherwise notified via Rover Schedule. I keep my schedule updated at all time. I have a fenced in yard along with a great walking neighborhood for our exercise routine. Upon request videos/facetime calls can be scheduled as well for activities or wellness checks.

About: With years of hands on pet care experience, I provide loving, reliable, and personalized care for your furry family members. From puppies to senior pets, I've cared for animals of all ages and temperaments. Whether it's daily walks, overnight stays, or extra TLC for anxious pets, I treat every animal like my own with patience, kindness, and attention to detail. Your pet's comfort and safety are always my top priority. As someone who works from home, I have the flexibility and availability to give pets the time and attention they need throughout the day. Whether it's taking breaks for walks, playtime, or just offering comfort and companionship, I enjoy making animals a part of my daily routine. Having pets around brightens my day and I love being able to provide consistent, loving care without distractions or schedule conflicts. Creating a safe, calm, and pet friendly environment is my top priority. My home is clean, secure, and free of hazards, with plenty of space for pets to relax, play, and feel comfortable. I provide constant supervision, especially during introductions and transitions and follow each pet's routine closely including feeding, medication and special needs. I treat every animal like family and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while in my care.

“Shantae was a tentative on time and really took great care of our two year-old and six month old puppy. Our puppy had no accidents either in the house with her which is amazing while she still is still potty training. Shantae was able to look out for the signs to help her continuously be successful in potty training. If you’re looking for someone who will take care and treat your fur babies like royalty.”

About: I have experience working with lots of pets from cats and dogs to fish and lizards! I own two cats that I have raised since they were kittens and keep my own 10 gallon aquarium. I have also raised my bearded dragon (who eats lots of bugs, so I am comfortable with anything!). I have even pet-sit for diabetic animals! I am comfortable with every animal and am willing to go the extra mile for your pets care, whether that be delivering medicines or taking them out for extra bathroom breaks! I offer the same services you provide to your pet. If you need your pet in a crate, I am comfortable doing so! If your pet eats a special diet, let me know and I will do my best to replicate your dish for your animal! I am also comfortable taking your pets on long and short walks, offering bathroom breaks, cleaning up any accidents your pet may have, and meeting any other requests for services you may have! I recently graduated from UMD with a degree in Biology (fueled by my passion for animals!). Now, I've moved back home to Southern Maryland and have a fairly flexible schedule while I transition into the workforce. I strive to take care of your animals like they are my own. My goal is to make your pets feel as comfortable as possible while their parents are away. I always strive to leave your home better than you left it, and always clean up your pets' accidents ASAP! Part of my services will include a plethora of photos and videos of your pets. I believe that this helps ensure trust and build accountability. I know I miss my pets when I am away, so I always do my best to keep clients in the loop about what their pets and I are up to while they are away - on a walk, going on a potty break, playing inside, having a treat, etc. Security is incredibly important to me too. I will never leave your home unlocked, even if your pet and I are only stepping out for a short walk. If you have home alarm systems, I would be more than happy to arm those before I leave as well. I always communicate with clients before my stay about how to secure their households and how I will return any keys as necessary after the duration of my services.
