About: Hi, I'm Marissa - I love dogs of all shapes and sizes, but especially the big goofy ones (I recently lost my Great Dane to cardiomyopathy). Further, if your border collie needs a running buddy, I'm your person! Helping get dogs physically and mentally fulfilled so they can be their best selves is something I've spent years researching and learning about. I can't wait to meet your pup! I'm currently working part time, and able to take in drop-in visits with fairly short notice. I'm also training for a 10k, so having a four-pawed running buddy would make my runs even better! While I don't offer in-home services, understanding your dogs "vibe" is incredibly important. I know how to take cues from their energy and build up our relationship from there.
“Ri did great on 2 walks with Sophie! This was our first visit with Ri. Ri kept me informed of the walks and followed Sophie’s routine. Sophie was happy when I saw her which is always a good sign! Will definitely use Ri’s services again!”
“Teffni was great! She was always on time, friendly, and my dog Chai was so comfortable with her. Chai was always excited to go with Teffni and always came back good and tired out.”
“Holland was communicative and easy to work with. She was patient with my dog Ginger who doesn’t love walks in the rain and helped her still get outside. We’d love to have her again.”
“Jonathan was great with our recently adopted dog that gave him a hard time. He was calm, patient and adapted to the situation as needed, communicating well along the way.”
About: As a devoted pet parent to two cats and an experienced caretaker of dogs, turtles, and other animals, I bring both passion and reliability to every pet sitting job. I understand how important it is to find someone who treats your pets like family—because that's exactly how I treat mine. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or special care, your pets will be safe, loved, and well-looked after in my hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, as I’m currently studying for my board exams and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve throughout the day, whether it's for feeding, playtime, or companionship. I truly enjoy the break animals bring to my study routine—they help keep me calm, focused, and grounded. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully—feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and any specific habits or preferences. I aim to keep things as familiar as possible for the pet. Since I’m studying for my board exams, I have a flexible schedule and can devote plenty of time to making sure each pet feels secure, happy, and loved.
“Drew was very responsive and gave multiple updates during his visit with our girl. He took the time to meet us before and followed our instructions perfectly. We’d highly recommend him to anyone!”
“DJ was great with my boy Vinny! She was prompt and communicative, and is clearly focused on making sure Vinny was safe and happy on their walks! I feel good knowing she comes to see him every day and give him some love and exercise.”
“The dogs and I adored Meghan. She showed up with a big smile and eager to get to know the pups. She quickly became a part of their daily routine - and they were all wagging tails when she would open the door. In short - a perfect match. Meghan was always on time and highly considerate - letting me know when she was on her way. I found he energy and enthusiasm combined with her professionalism to be a perfect match. We will absolutely hire Meghan again.”
“Megan was very professional and our pets loved her! She is very thorough with walks which we appreciate and is very friendly and trustworthy. We very much appreciated her help and the dog and the cat thank her for all the time and love she gave them. She is highly recommended to all.”
About: I've always gotten along very well with animals and I'm very receptive to their mood and needs. I have experience with dogs big and small and I'm comfortable handling multiple at a time. I'm currently taking courses part-time at Montgomery College, but my schedule is otherwise open and highly flexible. I'm available mornings, evenings, and weekends, but weekday afternoons may require advance notice. I'm available for walks and sitting, but currently unavailable for boarding. I am willing to fulfill all your pet's needs including grooming, medicine, and check-ins if needed.
“This was the first time I booked Natalia to walk my pup. She was very easy to coordinate with and sent me a couple of photos of their walk. I would definitely book her again.”
About: I have 3 dogs, two 14 year old Labrador retrievers and a 5 year old Labrador retriever. I have trained and taken care of my younger dog and continue to provide senior care for my older dogs. This has given me experience with all ages and a diverse range of doggy needs. I currently have an internship from 9-5 but am willing to do any work after 5 including dog walking, delivering care, and dog sitting. I already take care of my three dogs and would happy to accommodate any other dogs into my schedule. In my home, my dogs are walked twice daily and fed twice a day. They are treated with love and respect, helping them to enjoy their all too short life. I will treat my clients with that same respect and hopefully be able to interact with your furry friends!
“Dominique walked out flat coated retriever, Hannah, daily on weekdays for three months. She was extremely communicative and always reliable. We could tell Hannah really enjoyed her time with her going through the neighborhood and in our building's dog park. We plan on Dominique returning for another set of long term daily walks!”
About: I have always been a dog lover and plan to spoil your furry friend just as I would my own and am happy to send pictures throughout their stay! My dog, Tucker (Australian Shepherd) and I are both welcoming hosts for your four legged friend! Tucker is very mellow and enjoys playing with dogs of all breeds - he is very gentle towards little dogs, but is also a great playmate for dogs of his size. As much as I love bigger dogs, unfortunately Tucker is a little intimidated by them so we are better hosts for dogs under 60lbs. A little more about my place and schedule - I work full-time but will ensure your dog gets plenty of exercise based on their breed. My yard is nearly 1/2 acre which leaves more than enough room for play time and fetch. I live near many parks and trails, love spending time outdoors and am known to jump in the car and go for a longer hike on the weekends, so you can rest assured your pup is having a great time when they stay with me!
About: I've had the joy of caring for dogs my whole life—currently playing the role of devoted dog sister and dog aunt to a lively crew of local pups. Whether it's a brisk walk, a playful romp, or a cozy sitting session, I treat every dog with the love and attention they deserve. I’m comfortable with all breeds, ages, and energy levels. Let’s make sure your furry friend gets the care and exercise they need! I love to go on regular walks for my own fitness goals - why not have your dog join me!Currently in between full-time roles and available for walks most mornings, afternoons and evenings. Responsible care giver with great attention to detail and organization that will care for your pet (on-time, responsive to needs, watches for changes in behavior) and home (respectful, intrusive, security).

Elin H.
“I can't say enough good things about Elin and her care for my young mini goldendoodle. My pup is still learning the ropes and needs someone with patience, consistency, and the ability to follow specific routines—and Elin was able to do that without exception. My pup is also very timid around new people but warmed right up to Elin, sensing that she is a true dog lover at heart. Elin was able to follow all of our instructions to a T and I would 10/10 recommend for any of your dog care needs.”
