About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10, from Great Danes, to pugs, to pitbulls, I’ve lived with them all. I am also a recent cat owner of 2 years now. I’m a college student with 1-3 classes each day. I’m free in the mornings before class and after my last class at 2 PM for the rest of the day! I only live with my dogs over winter and summer breaks, and during that time I walk, feed, and play with them. I also spent time with my cat here at my apartment everyday, but this won’t interfere with my services—I’ll be able to meet all your needs!

17. Hannah H.
About: I'm a senior at the University of Maryland and am a huge animal lover. I grew up with dogs and have been a dog walker since middle school. In college I got involved with the Guide Dog Foundation where I raised and trained a service dog for a visually impaired individual. This experience taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of consistent care. Now that my dog is no longer living with me I am hoping to make new fury friends through pet sitting and dog walking! This summer I will be working a part-time job and have a lot of free time to hang out with your pup! My availability will most likely vary by week, so reach out to me for a more concrete schedule. As a pet sitter, your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every animal with the same care I give my own.
18. Jenn T.
“Jenn doggysat our babies for about a week while we were on vacation. She was wonderful with Daisy, Layla and her two little puppies. Her dogs were great with our little ones. She took amazing care of them, much better than any dog boarding place. She even gave my girls a bath before I picked them up. I would absolutely leave my girls with Jenn again.”
19. Abby W.
“Abby is my niece and ever since she was little she has always loved animals. Her first pet was a rabbit named Shadow whom she adored and gave such devoted such care to. She created an amazing environment for Shadow with lots of space and toys to play with. She also provided the same love and care to her hamster, and most recently to her beloved dog Taffy. Abby ensures that the animals in her care receive the best of everything from their environment to their food to their, to their toys, and spends a lot of time loving on them as well. I would definitely recommend Abby as a devoted, loving care provider for any pets. They will certainly receive very attentive, loving care from Abby.”
20. Catherine O.
“In every way, Catherine is the ideal animal caregiver. They are gentle, nurturing, organized, a quick learner and so loving towards all animals regardless of whether or not they are their own. I have watched Catherine raise four beautiful rescue cats and provide them with an amazing quality of life. They are incredibly sensitive to their animal’s needs and are proactive in providing care in all the essential forms-medical, emotional, and environmental. I have a six-month-old puppy and Catherine has been so helpful throughout her training process. They take my dog for frequent walks, keep her emotionally stimulated through interactive games, and have effectively practiced reward-based training approaches with her. I also have a dwarf hamster who requires a daily period of human interaction as well as scheduled feedings and Catherine has been supportive in fulfilling those quotidian responsibilities. Catherine is a trustworthy, motivated, reliable, and passionate employee who will go above and beyond your caregiving needs!”
