Dog Sitting in Brandywine

“Stacy really went above and beyond with caring for our pets. She noticed Nas hadn’t eaten his food one night and she sat with him until he finished all his food. I really appreciated her doing that as he probably noticed after the first night we hadn’t come back home & missed us. Providing our pets with emotional support is something most will not do but Stacy went beyond what was asked.”

“Trina helped us check in on our cat, and responded promptly to my request. She’s professional, courteous, and maintained communication throughout the whole process. She gave our cat some treats, food, checked on her water, and most importantly she gave her some love 😻. My cat enjoyed Trina’s company and was PURRRing on the phone !🧡 Trina was kind enough to offer to check in on my backyard hens when I mentioned that I was little worried about them too. We appreciate all your help and the peace of mind you gave us while we’re away. 🙏”

“Raven is amazing! She took such good care of our pets, showed up exactly when we expected her to, and her communication was above and beyond. I felt so relaxed during our vacation knowing that they were all being taken care of. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! Nice to meet you, my name is Sanai! I am very passionate about animals and their wellbeing. In the more professional realm I have experience as a Veterinary Technician/Assistant, Dog Daycare Attendant. I’ve volunteered at a multitude of previous shelters. I’m very nice , gentle , educated and can read animal behavior very well. I have full open availability so any date or time is great with me . monday - sunday . 12 - 12. open schedule. :) I treat everyone’s space with consideration and unconditional love for their pets. Fun fact: I have 2 dogs one is a german shepherd and one is a fluffy white bichon:)

About: I've been dog sitting for friends and family for years and I also spent several months as a paid dog walker in Washington, DC. I have experience with all kinds of dog personalities, from high anxiety and high energy, to chill on the couch and sleep-all-day kinds of doggos. I use a Fear Free framework with all of the dogs I take care of and I work hard to co-regulate to your dog's needs whenever we're sharing space. My schedule is very open and flexible all day, every day, so I am happy to structure my day around all of your dog's needs. I am attentive to your dog's needs and I am generally able to sense when they're feeling stressed. The more you can tell me about what your dog likes, the better I'll be able to assess what they need if they're feeling anxious. Additionally, I'm very comfortable managing your home. Hiring me as your dog sitter means that you're also hiring someone who is prioritizing taking care of your home, itself.

“Awesome sitter!! My pup seemed extremely relaxed when I returned and even more responsive. Definitely will be using Roderick again.”

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.

About: I've always been surrounded by pets, my aunts/uncles/cousins/relatives and friends have always had dogs but because of money my family could never afford to get our own. We would take care of them when needed and don't consider it a chore but rather fun. I have a younger sister who loves dogs as well and will definitely play with them and keep them happy. We like to take walks and take them to a huge field near by or to the national arboretum as well. We are very loving and caring and just love to have more company. I work full-time nearby, 20 minutes away, and come home in the afternoon. My mom works part-time and she is home early on the days she works. We take several walks during the day. I have a fenced back yard for quick potty breaks if needed. We allow pets to sleep/lounge on our couches and have access to be around our rooms.

“Bernadette and Helena took excellent care of my two babies, they came to my house so my babies would feel secure. They are delightful to work with and showed my dogs love and affection. I highly recommend them and would not hesitate to ask them to care for them in the future. Thank you ladies for giving your best!”

About: I had a black lab growing up and now I have a 7lb chihuahua named Chloe who is super chill, harmless who keeps to herself. She acts more like a cat. I've dog sat for friends in the past as well as been a dog walker for neighbors. I work from home and have been for years so I'm pretty flexible. I may only leave to run errands but I am usually not gone for long periods of time. I walk my dog 3X a day, we take actual walks. She is getting old and doesn't like to be out much, but I really do enjoy the outdoors. My dog roams free when I'm home. I usually crate her and will crate your dog as well if I step out. I live in a large community with plenty of walking space. I have two kids, 10 and 14 who love dogs as well, but I'm responsible for walking and taking care of the dogs. My son is the one who really likes to play with other dogs because Chloe is not a playful, fetching type of dog. I've used Rover myself a couple of times when I was out of town.

“Destiny was on time, provided details about her care of my Fancee and pictures. I really appreciate how she handled Fancee with her minor leg injury and just how professional she was. I look forward to working with her again.”

“My fur baby is not overly friendly. I didn’t think he would come out for Krystin but he did AND he let her pet him. I am amazed. Krystin has that something special pets sense. She is awesome!”

Leslie D.

“Wonderful to have Kady in our home taking such great care of our valued pets! Reliable and gracious, Kady kept us well informed and set our minds at ease. Let's do it again.”

“Ja'Lynn is awesome! She treats Kilo very well and he is always happy to see her. I never have to worry when she takes care of him. Highly recommend Ja'Lynn!”

“Lillian was amazing with my two cats. They are both very shy but warmed up to her quickly. She sent daily pictures and eased my anxiety while I was out of the country.”

Shay K.

“Caitlyn is awesome! She checked on my cat for us. She is very patient and reliable, and genuinely loves and cares for animals. She even offered to hang out with my cat little longer. Caitlyn also communicated well and sent me many pictures of my cat😻. Definitely recommend!🧡”

“Patricia is an excellent sitter. My 125 lb Rottweiler loves her. Patricia was very personable and always on time. She took great attention in learning the things needed for his care. She came three times a day for 8 days to make sure he was taken care of and gave us peace of mind during our trip. I never had to worry because he was in good hands. I love when I can go away and leave him in the same level of care as he gets with my family. I chose right. Thank you Patricia!”

About: I've been in veterinary medicine for 12 years. I am comfortable around all pets, no matter the breed or personality. I have two giant breed diggitys and I understand how hard it is to find safe care for your fur babies. We live in a noise free environment , zero cars, zero sirens etc. I am fear free certified and can handle nervous nellies and their needs very well. I'm currently working remotely and homeschool. The house is full of good energy. Since we have children and other pets/animals we are up as early as 5am in the morning and last walks are around 8p. If it is a weekend and we are staying up later in the night than walks could be as late as 10pm. It does depend on the pet also. My dogs are pet friendly however because of their size some other dogs don't take to them. My personal dogs have their own room and crate. We have multiple free spaces for up to 10 dogs small and or 5 dogs small/medium large. We live on 73 acres with 4 hiking trails. The dogs and ducks definitely get their exercise. If you have a senior pet or a pet that does better away from children or other pets, we can accommodate that as well. I am currently working remotely with some days in clinic. Between myself and my nephew someone is always home. We also homeschool so the house is always active. We have tons of space so if your pet doesn't do well with "active" we can accommodate that as well. With all the land and space we can easily go on 4-5 mile scenic walks. We can also let dogs who have name recall roam free (supervised). We live on 73 acres, very secluded. Our noise level is zero. There aren't cars driving by, sirens etc. We have a few hiking trails that have been cleared. We also have a room specific for dog sitting in our home. We can make it feel like home or have the approach of a normal boarder. We do ask that all pets are at minimum rabies vaccinated. This is the only vaccine legally required in the state of Maryland. We also ask that for boarding , you provide a favorite toy and t-shirt to help minimize anxiety and stress. We have calming plug ins in certain areas of the house to help decrease anxiety as well.
