“Sarah is a wonderful housesitter. Takes great care of my Aussie and home. Excellent communications, great attitude and punctual. Highly recommend!!”
“Devon did such an amazing job with my senior pup. Thank you so much for everything”
“Thanks so much for taking great care of Hampton. It was such a relief knowing he was being cared for while we were away for so long. Also thanks for taking great care of our home.”
“Mark was great with our dogs! Took them all around town, and spent some time to win over our nervous younger dog. He took fine pup pictures as well. He took good care of the house.”
“Stephanie is an incredible dog sitter! She was so loving and attentive to my dog, and really helped him with his anxiety. He got so much play and love and outdoor time. She is communicative and insightful and amazing with animals (and their pet parents 😊).”
“Amazing dog sitter.”
“Dwayne took good care of my 50 pound pittie. He was not phased by his various quirks and kept in touch with me while I was away. When he wasn't sure about the meaning of a minor behavior change, he checked in with me to make sure it was nothing to be concerned about. When I returned, my home was at least as clean and tidy as it was when I left. I will happily hire Dwayne again.”
“Aliyah watched my four pets (2 cats and 2 dogs) for 6 days while I was out of state and she was amazing! Some of my pets are elderly and have some medical issues. Aliyah followed all my instructions and went above and beyond when there was a little bit of an issue towards the end of the vacation (just dogs being dogs, nothing Aliyah did wrong or could have prevented). I will absolutely utilize her services as long as she offers them!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Bradley! I needed someone with experience handling bully breeds, and Bradley was exactly what I was looking for. Some people might find my dog intimidating at first glance, but to us, he’s a big baby—and Bradley totally got that. Not only did he understand our dog, but he welcomed him with open arms and so much love. His communication was always fast and clear, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. And the way he loved on our dog truly made it feel like we were leaving him with family. As a self-proclaimed crazy dog mom, I can confidently say: if you want someone who will treat your pup like their own, Bradley is the one. Highly recommend! Also bonus points to him for treating our house with respect.”
“William was fabulous! He watched our two wild puppies and crazy cat in our apartment over the weekend. We came home to a cleaner apartment than we left and three happy content pets! We will be keeping his contact information close!”
“Lilly was outstanding with Buster. She sent many pictures and kept me constantly updated. Even better was the house was in perfect condition when I returned and the dog was expertly taken care of. I would HIGHLY recommend!”
“Gabrielle is a perfect dog/house sitter. She is communicative, leaves my home as it was found, and makes my (shy) dog feel very comfortable and taken care of. I would recommend Gabrielle to any dog parent :)”
“I highly recommend Javien. He stayed at my house and looked after my dog, Ruby, while I was away on a recent trip. I came home and found Ruby happy and relaxed, and my house nice and neat, with the plants watered, and the trash taken out to the curb at the right time. I plan to contact him again for future pet sitting.”
“Shamiso watched our somewhat anxious pandemic pup for 4 days at the last minute. She was fantastic. Before the booking, she was communicative. During our pre/booking chat, she asked thoughtful questions. And she took great care of our pup while we were gone. I loved her updates of what they were up to, and she left the house as clean as (or probably cleaner) than we left it. Thank you Shamiso!”
About: I started pet sitting in my home town in Maryland since I was 10. The years and multitude of dogs gave me expert experience. I love all kinds of dogs and enjoy the outdoors. Since I am a college student, I typically have classes during the morning and early afternoon. Weekends I am free and most weekdays I am free after 3:30 P.M. I take pet care very seriously because I have a dog of my own. I treat the pets I care for just as I treat my little fluffy boy Marshall, with love and respect.
“Jada is AMAZING! She did such an amazing job following all our instructions and taking such great care of our 3 cats. She’s so good at providing consistent updates every day, and I could tell how happy our boys were having her around in all the photos/videos she sent :) Having Jada housesit made our entire time away so stress-free - she was so punctual and made it a point to try to find all 3 of our cats (they like to hide sometimes) and give them all the attention and cuddles they wanted. I could not recommend her enough!”
About: In the past I had 1 childhood fur sibling (Yorkshire terrier) for 13 years. Currently I am dog mom to two fur babies. My oldest is a 4 year old 50lb pit mix and youngest is a 3 year old 140lb English Mastiff. For the past 3 years I ran an Airbnb out of my home in which I have hosted several dog guests with their human companions. My dogs are always excited to meet a new friend that visits. In the event a guest dog doesn't favor mine own our policy was to keep everyone separate alternating food and bathroom breaks. My backyard is fenced in and the dogs and play or use the bathroom back there. My availability is currently fairly open as I pursue a new career working in the dog training industry. Ill take on clients in between my own education and training. My oldest dog is a 50lb 4 year old pit mix. My youngest dog is a 140lb 3 year old English mastiff. After 3 years my dogs and I have had plenty of experience hosting dogs of all flavors of personalities. My back yard is fenced in and the side door that leads to it has a dog door. We typically have bathroom breaks every for hours or so until bed time. Upon arrival guest dogs and their human walk about the house and back yard to get the scents of everyone who lives within before meeting my dogs. We introduce my dogs to the guest dog one at a time. if it is an unfavorable meeting we take the time to keep the dogs separated for the duration of their stay.
“Shania house sat and took care of our two dogs Daisy and Diego while we went on a weeklong vacation overseas. She sent regular updates and was responsive to texts, which we greatly appreciated! We would use her again in a heartbeat.”
“Jody did a wonderful job with our dog. We received text messages and pictures that reassured us that he was doing well while we were gone. When we returned our dog seemed to be calm and cared for, not neglected and anxious. We are pleased with Jody's care of our dog and would have her back again.”
About: The genuine bond I build with every pet I care for is what sets me apart from others. I treat them like family, not just a job.I pay close attention to their unique personalities, routines, and comfort levels, making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while their owners are away.I also prioritize communication, giving regular updates and photos so pet parents feel connected and reassured. My reliability, patience, and deep love for animals truly make a difference. I am currently not working full-time at the moment so I have more than enough time to spend pet sitting, cuddling and caring for animals. In a clients home I would care for the pet as the owner sees fit. Usually there is some sort of routine in place already. If there's really no sense of structure with the pet, I will have a prior conversation with the owners to gauge out what feels most comfortable for them.

Shania did such a great job watching our pets! The communication was fantastic throughout and she even sent daily picture updates. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!
Pambi did an amazing job taking care of my very shy and anxious rescue dog for a week of pet sitting. She was extremely patient with him, building trust slowly over time, so he could be a sweet and confident boy with her. She ensured he got his exercise and medications on his schedule, and took all his unique needs in stride. She communicated extremely well, asked questions when necessary, provided very thorough updates, and was absolutely a great fit for both my dog and me. She also took great care of my home and helped secure an item that I forgot to take care of on my way out of town—that was also much appreciated! I would absolutely call on Pambi again for care for Giles in the future and recommend her to others!
Megan was fantastic in taking care of our two cats and house over a holiday weekend! She was easy to communicate with and gave us frequent updates. We came home to a clean house and happy cats, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!
Dwayne took good care of my 50 pound pittie. He was not phased by his various quirks and kept in touch with me while I was away. When he wasn't sure about the meaning of a minor behavior change, he checked in with me to make sure it was nothing to be concerned about. When I returned, my home was at least as clean and tidy as it was when I left. I will happily hire Dwayne again.
Joseph was fantastic with my pups! This was my first time leaving them with a sitter and I could not have been more pleased. Joseph eased my mind with regular updates and photos, and the pups adored him. If you are in need of a kind, caring, and attentive sitter, look no further!
Frankie was so responsive, communicative, respectful of my house, and - of course - so loving to my two loves. I felt so reassured getting updates every day that showed Frankie was not only giving them lots of affection and play but understood the different personalities of my cats and their individual needs. 12/10 - your pets need a Frankie.
I’ve had lots of trouble finding a decent dog walker/sitter, until I found Adrienne. She was great! Very communicative. I had no worries and my dog was super happy with her. If available I hope to use her for all my trips!
Lilly-Christina stepped up literally the night before we had to leave due to another sitter’s last-minute cancellation. We came home to a happy dog and all of our packages brought inside. Lilly-Christina sent pictures and videos of our dog throughout the stay. 10/10!
Hannah was wonderful with our dog and communicative while we were away for the weekend. We're lucky to have found her!
Charlotte was so great with our animals once again! They love her, and we know we can always count on her!
Our dog loves it when Douglas sits him! Douglas always provides us with updates and photos when there. In each photo, our pup looks so content and happy.
Will is great! He made us first-time Rover users very comfortable leaving Dottie with him for the weekend! Walks, frisbee time, cuddles, and lots of photoshoots for Mom:)
Great communicator; flexible, helped me out when I was in a pinch. Was great with my pets and home. Will hopefully have her back!
Rachel was great with Pete! She was very professional and communicative. We felt Pete was in good hands while we were away.
I am so thankful to have found ROUDAY! My Super Senior 65 lb Pittie, Rita, requires extra attention due to her advanced age, mobility issues, and unfortunately developed severe separation anxiety (unfortunately developed during her golden years). I was extremely nervous about leaving her with someone new. From the start Rouday took the time to discuss Rita's specific needs to understand her limited mobility (hip dysplasia/pinched nerve issues), slowing down with age, and severe separation anxiety (developed in her golden years) which really put me at ease and made me feel that she was in good hands. He was gentle and patient and made sure to adapt her walks and gave her extra support maneuvering up/down stairs without overexerting her. Rita's anxiety level is generally high but her activity level is quite limited, so she naps a lot but truly requires a lot of physical/verbal comforting (TLC). It was a tremendous relief to see her relaxed and comfortable with a new person, which I’m always concerned about. Rouday kept to my senior girl’s normal routine and maintained a calm and quiet environment for her offering plenty of gentle reassurance and treats. I was kept connected and reassured by receiving regular updates with pictures (in my absence) of Rita peacefully napping, etc. Rouday was wonderful tending to my furbaby’s special needs! His energy, patience, and compassion made all the difference, and I’m so grateful for the peace of mind he provided us both for the day. I personally recommend him especially to those who require a bit more TLC from a Dogsitter or someone who understands the special needs/challenges of caring for a senior animal.
Aliyah was fantastic!! She took great care of my dog and made me feel at ease while out of town. She shared pictures and videos throughout her stay as well. I would absolutely use her again for dog sitting!
Rowan took great care of Bear over the holidays. She was very responsive and sent frequent photo updates throughout each day. I knew he was getting tons of attention and regular walks. She also took good care of my apartment and arrived and departed on time. Highly recommend!
Dalia was wonderful with my pup. She came for a meet & greet, is very knowledgeable of dog care as she has experience working in a vet’s office, so asked a lot of really good questions. She sent pictures each day and followed instructions well about what I was comfortable my dog doing/not doing. She kept my place very clean and was very easy to work with. Thanks Dalia - I know Leila had a created week with you!
Shannon is hands down the most incredible pet sitter! We have been lucky enough to have Shannon do multiple overnight visits with our three cats and we are always so comforted that they are in the best possible hands with Shannon. Shannon is an excellent communicator and always takes the best care of our cats and our home. We highly recommend Shannon and will definitely book with her in the future!
