Pet Sitting Barnaby Woods

“Marilyn is an excellent cat sitter who goes above and beyond. She paid very close attention to the instructions that were given for my cat. She attended to everything that I asked her to do. She provided me with detailed updates on my cat. Despite my cat being shy, she managed to get pictures of him that I enjoyed seeing. I was most impressed with the efforts she made to connect with my cat who doesn’t typically respond well to strangers and is very skittish. She seemed very invested in making sure that he was doing reasonably well. I got the impression that she cared for my cat in the same loving way that she cares for her own pets. Her willingness to help on short notice was much appreciated. I would absolutely recommend Marilyn and plan to arrange for her to care for my cat in the future.”

“Jennifer is wonderful. This was the first time she took care of our cat, and it went well. She is easy to communicate with. We will definitely request her again.”

“Juna continues to take fantastic care of my hound mix! My dog is always happy to see Juna, and I can tell from her consistent communication and her lovely walking/drop-in photos that my dog continues to enjoy Juna's care and company throughout each booking. Juna has proven to be capable and resourceful throughout all of her visits with my dog, and I'm confident she would be the same with yours, too!”

“Thank you again for caring for Huxely while I'm away! I'm so glad she's getting more comfortable with you and coming out of her crate on her own for you 😊”

“Leila took care of our cat Spencer for 3 days and was able to win his love and trust. We greatly appreciated the photos and updates, and will absolutely use her services in the future.”

“Without Alex we would've had to cancel our latest trip due to our snr gato's bronchitis diagnosis right beforehand! Can't thank him enough for juggling all the extra meds and keeping us posted every day on her breathing rate and demeanor. Alex always goes above and beyond--can't recommend him more🏆”

Arienne J.

“I had a rover that cancelled mid-trip and fortunately Mia was able to take over the booking on only a few hours notice. She was super responsive and punctual and we were able to rest easy knowing our dogs were in good hands.”

About: I've loved dogs ever since I was a little girl and grew up with a black lab and golden retriever. I'm very comfortable with dogs of all sizes. And in recent years, I've had experience taking care of my grandfathers cat, so both feline and canine friends are welcome! Right now I want to make pet sitting my full time job. If you are a frequent traveler and do not want to board your dog or your schedule as gotten more busy than usual, I would love to help take care of your pet(s) while you are away. In my home and in others, I've always provided toys, treats, and whatever other items your pet loves to play with at times when the dog or cat can be entertained themselves for a little bit or supervised but most importantly I am able to anticipate their needs for taking them outside, playing, resting, feeding, and more. For their exercise and mine I love to walk them around any nearby park, hiking trail, town center, or whatever is around where you live! I also have experience with my own black lab & golden retriever in giving topical and oral medication for things such as tick/heart worm prevention, and ear infections.

About: I grew up surrounded by animals and they’ve always been a huge part of my life! I had two big pups to play with and grow up with and every member of my family had some kind of fur baby, whether it was a tiny little pup, a big fluffy dog or the sweetest cat. Being around so many different pets helped me learn their different personalities and needs from an early age :) When I was about 11, my mom started walking dogs in her free time as part of her wellness journey and I was lucky enough to join her. That’s when I first discovered how much I enjoy dog walking and caring for pets. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, my sister and my two aunts do, ranging from a playful chocolate pitty to an adorable teacup poodle, so I’m still surrounded by pups regularly. At home, I have three cats that I absolutely adore!! They truly mean the world to me and are a big part of who I am. Caring for animals isn’t just something I’ve done, it’s something I genuinely love & enjoy. I can’t wait to meet and care for even more amazing fur babies! 🐾 I am a full time student at Montgomery College as a psychology & surgical tech major! I’m at the silver spring campus and live near by and have a decent amount of time through my weekdays! My kitty babies roam freely as they are all pretty mature! I try to play and entertain for 30 mins a day but sometimes it’s 15 a day, I feed them twice a day wet food only!

“was great with communication and following instructions”

About: Hi, I’m Meriam! I work fully from home and have a flexible schedule. I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Most of my friends have pets, so I’ve occasionally helped care for their dogs and cats when needed. I’m patient, attentive, and mindful of each pet’s personality, routine, and needs, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding or simply keeping them company :) I work fully from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and quality time on both weekdays and weekends. I’m very attentive to each pet’s individual routine, personality, and needs. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and care, while keeping their environment clean, comfortable, and secure. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos.

“Sara is amazing! She’s incredibly communicative, thoughtful, and loves dogs (and cats!). She’s excellent with senior dogs—my pup Bruce is 17—which gave me so much peace of mind. Couldn’t recommend her more!”

About: My name is Tiana Palmer. Born & raised in Baltimore, MD by way of Dallas, TX. I travel back and forth from both areas for work and open to welcoming new clients as the fall/winter season is approaching. I have always had a passion for taking care of animals, especially canines. I have plenty of clients who can vouch that at all times their dog, cat, even a turtle can be trusted in my hands. With my personable spirit and love for the animals I have been recognized by my peers and colleagues on numerous occasions about my enthusiasm and passion for care taking. My availability is pretty open. I’m usually free for walks in the morning til the evening. If it’s overnights I will follow the client’s schedule. I have extensive experience in animal welfare, animal behavior and language. Also, prompt if meds are needed for pet. The schedule such as feedings, walks, baths and etc. that the client has for their animal it will be as followed.

“Joe did an amazing job taking care of our cat. His report cards and photos were always welcomed. He followed all instructions carefully and genuinely cared for our cat. It was a great comfort knowing he was taking care of her while we were away.”

About: I've had dogs since I was about 14 years of age, from tiny terriers to large labradors. I've also been surrounded by some of the loveliest (and skittish!) cats, learning to love them like my own. I work only weekend nights, which is when my partner is available. Even then, I'm never more than a few minutes walk away from home in case of an emergency. Taking care of your fur baby is always top priority! I'm always home, and would never abandon a pet. I take my current dog everywhere I possibly can, and in the rare chance I have to leave, my dog is crated or isolated in a different room. We also have access to an enclosed patio.

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life, enjoying doing things such as basic obedience, hiking trips, and agility. I also grew up with horses so I have experience working with larger animals. I did not grow up with cats but have cat sit for several people and fostered a kitten for a summer in college! I work full time from 7:45-3:45, so I would be a good fit for households with pets that either don’t require a walk in the middle of the day or already have a dog walker. I am pretty active and enjoy long walks and going on runs, and I would love to include your pet in that routine! As someone who grew up with animals but doesn’t live with them anymore, you can sleep easy knowing that if I am looking after your animal they will be appropriately spoiled. I love giving long belly rubs and going on lots of walks, or if you have a pet that is a little bit more reserved, I am happy to hang out with them and tell them how good of a boy/girl they are from afar. I really just enjoy the company and am happy to play with your pet on terms that are most comfortable for them!
