Dog Sitting in Columbia

“Dulaney was great! We left somewhat detailed instructions for our young puppy and older dog and she didn’t miss a beat. She arrived on time and provided good feedback for us after her visit. Would book again!”

“We have a very anxious dog and she does not warm up to strangers very easily. Alania was very patient with her and our dog immediately was very comfortable with her.”

Daniel G.

“Jacinta has exceptional attention to details and care. She was extremely communicative before and during the visits. I can tell how loved my animals feel while I’m away!”

Chelsey L.

“Laurie and Jim are simply amazing. Our dogs took to them immediately, as if they had always known them. Laurie and Jim's attention towards our dogs made our dogs feel as if Mom and Dad had never left.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life—dogs, cats, and just about every pet you can imagine. I grew up caring for all kinds of animals and spent time volunteering at animal shelters, gaining hands-on experience with pets of all temperaments, sizes, and ages. I bring years of real-world experience and a genuine love for animals to every walk and visit! I currently work part-time as a data analyst for a large global real estate and building company, while also pursuing my Master of Business Administration degree. My flexible work schedule allows me to make plenty of time for pet care, and I’m committed to providing reliable, attentive service around my other responsibilities. At my home, your pet will feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have a large, fully fenced-in yard where they can play and run around! A crate is available if needed, depending on your pet’s preferences. There are no other dogs in my home, so your pet will receive my full attention in a happy and homey environment. In your home, I make sure to respect your pet’s familiar space and stick to their usual routines—whether that’s feeding, walking, playtime, or just keeping them company. I always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety, treating them as if they were my own.

“Tricia has come to take care of our German Shorthaired Pointer (Pumpernickel) 4 times. Pumpernickel is a sweet dog but she can be challenging! Tricia has done a great job with her. We would definitely use her again.”

“I can’t say enough good things about William. This was the 3rd time we’ve used him. He’s always prompt and sends lots of pics. My 3 babies just love him. We will absolutely use him again!”

Cindy A.

“Sara was great! Our apartment was left in the same condition as when we left. She arrived promptly and sent cute pictures of our boy! She was very patient with our wild puppy and played with him (in a structured way that promotes mental stimulation) as well as a nice potty break while we’re at work. Would definitely feel comfortable requesting her services again.”

Madisyn H.

“Joanne was easy to communicate with, coordinating times & care needs was easy. She arrived for drop in visits/walks as promised & sent pictures of my dog on walks. It was so nice to have the comfort of knowing my pets were well taken care of during my trip. will definitely hire again!!”

About: Hello my name is Fang Ren. I’m a lab technician and fine artist. I have lots of experience caring for pets. My family and I have always had pets in our home. As a pet sitter, I’m always on time to pick up and drop off clients’ pets. I also monitor their health and behavior and inform the owners if there are any issues. If you need my services, please feel free to contact me. My schedule is flexible, and I’m willing to make adjustments for your convenience. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I can walk your dogs and play them for as long as they need to. I also live in a very nice neighborhood with big backyard and close to dog parks . I always start by listening carefully to the owner’s instructions and understanding their pet’s specific needs. If requested, I provide updates throughout the day, including photos and videos at different times, so owners can feel connected and reassured. If a pet is staying at my home for the entire day, I make sure to walk them in the morning, afternoon, and evening. If the client prefers that I walk their dog at their home, I am always punctual and will keep them updated on their pet’s condition. This way, they can go about their day with peace of mind. To me, the most important rule is to respect both the client’s requests and the pet’s needs—whether it’s a 15 minute walk, a home visit, or overnight boarding. I care for both dogs and cats with equal dedication and attention.

“Ashley is amazing with my two kitties! It’s so nice to have found someone trustworthy and reliable, not to mention the great photos she takes! I’m so grateful for her”

“Alex did a wonderful job with my 2 dogs. We weren’t able to do an in-person meet and greet before the booking, but she did a great job with my nervous chihuahua and even got her to eat (which she usually won’t for others). She took a lot of great photos and provided a detailed description of her visit. 1000% recommend!”

About: Hello! I've been taking care of pets for over 15 years. I love all animals especially dogs and cats, but I don't have any pets currently. I am active duty, but thankfully I have a flexible schedule after 3:30pm weekdays, and open weekends. I can do drop ins, walks, etc, and I have additional experience house sitting and caring for friends and coworker's pets. I like to stay active, go on walks and go to the park. I can provide lots of cuddles and scratches of course. My schedule after 3:30 pm on weekdays, and on weekends is flexible. I am also available during the upcoming holiday season as I will be staying in the area and have some time off. I live in an apartment but there are various grassy areas for dogs. There are also lots of trails around, and dog parks near my area.

About: My husband and I currently have a 7-year old pug who loves to play with other dogs. We adopted Otto as a baby and have raised him in a loving and caring home. We take Otto for long walks outside, as well as playing inside with lots of toys. Otto loves to snuggle with us at night, both in bed and on the couch. We will accept overnight stays on both weekends and holidays. We will administer medications, orally or injected, to your dog, as long as directions are given prior to the stay. Otto eats twice per day and is given very healthy treats, but we are willing to follow any feeding schedule and dietary restrictions. While we both work 5 days a week, we are home evenings and weekends. Our dog wakes up with us, goes for a walk, and has breakfast before we leave for work. Once we are home from work, we do another walk and then lots of play time and snuggling. We have experience giving medications to dogs, including eye, oral, and injected medications. Both of are very attuned to a dog’s needs and will immediately reach out to the pup parents if we think that something may be wrong or different about a dog in our care.
