“Savannah is the best! She was very communicative and my kitty was in good hands while I was traveling. Highly recommend booking with her. Traveling is stressful but knowing my cat is in god hands is a huge relief.”


About: Why will I be your new favorite pet sitter? Your pet’s safety is my top priority. Trust that your good boy will be showered with with love, attention, belly rubs, and walks. General Pet care experience: I’ve been house sitting dogs, with the occasional cat, for ~15 years. From 4 month old puppies, to 120lb senior dogs, I’ve taken care of them all. I also had a stint as a hospice foster. Ive house sat for up to 3 dogs and 1 cat in the residence. Reactive dogs: I adopted a 100lb severely reactive dog (reactive towards animals, not towards humans) so I am very comfortable navigating situations to keep your dog safe and under control. I know how nerve wrecking it can be letting someone look after your reactive dog Medications and bed rest: experience administering oral medication (both pills and liquids) as well as shot administration for both cats and dogs. Cared for dogs on varying degrees of bed rest, ranging from mild bed rest cases all the way to ACL tear recovery and spleen removals. I was a former hospice foster, so I’m very observant when it comes to your pet’s state and will escalate promptly. Caring for your pup: I have potty breaks set as 4-8 hours in the app. Share your dog(s) walk and play needs so that your pup and I can have a great time. If your dog needs more frequent potty breaks, please note the cadence when reaching out. I will always be sure to send you great shots of your buddy throughout the day and will always relay any hilarious pet news I’m very personable and I promise that I will not disappoint you nor your pets! Can’t wait to meet you all soon! I’m a 32 year old consultant who decided to take a recharge leave, providing me with ample time to care for your dog. I’m attentive and love showing your dog a good time! Im also very respectful of your home. No guests whatsoever. I’m a homebody, anyway Restrictions: no dangerous or aggressive dogs who would put my safety at risk. Non-puppies must be potty trained. I strongly prefer non-destructive dogs.

“Heather took amazing care of my herd! When I got home from vacation, everyone was content, water bowls were full, mail brought in and the household mellow. I would definitely recommend her!”


About: I have experience with senior dogs and puppies. Recently I have started taking care of neighbors cats while they are out of town. I always welcome doggie into my own home and treat them like my own, letting them hop on bed and cuddle if that’s what the dog is used to. I recently moved into town and I’m currently on the search for submitting applications. My schedule as of now remains I am am fully available. In my own home I allowed my pets roam free inside the home and back yard as long as there was a locked fence that they couldn’t escape from. When I moved into an apartment which didn’t have an enclosed fence I made sure the dogs harnesses and leashes were secured before stepping foot outside the apartment.


About: I am a credible and trustworthy person. Currently owning 3 small dogs, Pomeranian, and chihuahua mixes. In the past I have owned 2 big dogs, 1 small terrier, and 2 German Shepherds and 4 horses. I occasionally pet sit for my friends, and I'm really great with animals. I'm responsible and will not return your dog in any condition less than happy. I'm very considerate when it comes to the well being of the animal. I have a flexible schedule, I go into the office 3/4 days a week and wfh Fridays. I love dogs so much so pet sitting part time just makes since. I have a fenced in back yard that I take the dogs out to run around and play in. I have a 10lb Pomeranian, she’s very friendly and very vocal. She normally plays with the dogs. I can also put her up, whichever works best.

About: Hi there! My name is Sam, and I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to a sweet toy poodle who’s been in my care since he was just 7 weeks old. Through the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with everything from puppy care and training to daily routines and keeping pets active and happy. I love spending time playing, going for walks, and giving plenty of affection so pets feel comfortable and cared for while their families are away. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable, attentive, and trustworthy looking after your furry family members. You can count on me to treat your pets with the same love, safety, and patience that I give my own. Working from home allows me to be flexible and available for your pet’s needs.

I My goal is a stress-free, loving environment for your pets and peace of mind for you.

“Emilia did a wonderful job with my two pups!! She even cleaned up the messes they made while we were gone. Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to do a meet and greet, but we were able to communicate all the details. Highly recommend her to puppy sit ?”


“Trishia looked after my two cats for a week. She's nice and responsible. Did everything I asked her to per the care instructions. She also sent me pictures of my cats every time she visited. Highly recommend.”


“Alyssa was great with our dog Holly, stopping by twice on the same day for walks and feeding. She sent pictures and left a not for us. Holly had a big story to tell when we got home about her adventures with Alyssa.”


About: I can train dogs to obey simple commands, work with them on training already in progress, and offer support. I also treat every pet as if they are my own. The pets receive one on one treatment from me and are made to feel like they are part of my family. I am also insured policy #JN1225-PCI110038. I would make pet sitting a part of my daily and weekly routine by walking at least three times a day, or taking care of a pet in their home three times a day, or whatever is required by the owner. I would build a schedule around my family and ensure that the pet care is thorough while also giving time to my family. At my house, pets are like family. They get ample play, snuggles, and pets while at my home. Your pet will be treated like a member of the family here!

About: We love animals! I grew up in a rural area where we had a family dog. As an adult, I have also been a fur Mom to a dog and guinea pigs. Unfortunately, we are not able to have pets in our home due to health issues of a family member. Therefore, two years ago, I became a pet sitter with TrustedHousitters caring for bunnies, dogs, and cats in their homes. My 16 year old son frequently assists me with ensuring our furry friend receives even MORE love and attention. Pet care routines fit into my schedule in the evenings during the weekday and in the mornings on weekends. Currently, my time is more flexible during the weekends than on weekdays. I view the pet as my client and always strive to provide them with top notch service. I want them to be comfortable and welcome me into their space.

About: Since I was very little I’ve always had a special interest in dogs. Whenever I came in contact with a pup, I immediately wanted to be friends. I remember first being addicted to the Nintendogs game because my parents initially did not let me have a dog (worst time in my life lol). I also quized myself on dog breeds and was very proud when I could spot an exotic one. To prove my parents I was ready for a pup, I prepared by reading up on breeds, dog behavior and later watching dog training shows and videos. I learned A LOT when I got my first pup, Mickey, who sadly passed away over 2 years ago. But I will never forget the lessons he taught me. Over the years, friends and family have relied on me to walk and take care of their best friends. We have a family dog that occasionally stays with me, and I would love to care for your best friend when you need the help! I currently work night shift 3x a week in a row, so usually have 4 days off together. My sister, Nat just graduated and will be starting also a night shift job 3x week in a few months, but currently is mostly free! The days I work do differ but the hours not so much. I would say we are available mostly during the week right now and rarely weekends. But our callender will be updated accordingly. I also loovveee the outdoors, walking, jogging, hiking, so your pup will feel right at home. We live in a 3 level townhouse with a patio and big balcony that are fenced. There is a walking path in the neighborhood and plenty of side walks and grass areas to go on long walks. There are also trails nearby like bacon ridge, patapsco park and quiet waters that I often go to. I also have created a space for the crate, bed, toys, dog bowl, etc. Pup will never be in crate when one of us are home. Occasionally, we may have our friendly family dog to keep your fur baby company. There are no other pets or kids in the household.

About: I'd like to think that I'm a professional dog cuddler! I would love to play and cuddle with your dog while you are away for the day or night. I am experienced with senior dogs and dogs that exhibit a high level of anxiety when they are away from their owners. It is my priority to make all of the dogs that are in my care feel safe and loved. My decision to become a Rover sitter has proven to be both therapeutic after losing our precious Brodie but also one of the most rewarding. It makes my heart so happy to hear owners tell me how glad they are to have found me and how much they loved having their precious pup stay with me 🐾🐶❤️ I work from home and am able to to spend alot of time with your pet, any day of the week. Lots of time for walks and play. I can be very flexible. Since losing our beloved boxer, Brodie there are no other dogs in our home. I only take one dog at a time unless they are from the same home. To me, your dog's safety is of utmost importance. In addition to a fenced backyard, I also have a secondary barrier gate inside my front door to protect from any "escape artists."

About: Hi there! I have taken care of animals since I was a young girl. I absolutely adore animals. I have provided pet care for family, friends, neighbors, and coworkers over the years. I would love the opportunity to help care for your babies so you can work, run errands, go on a much needed vacation, or do whatever it is that takes you away from home with them. I have two pets of my own. A Mini Dachshund and a Ragdoll cat that are very dear to my heart so I understand how important it is to find quality care you can trust and rely on. I enjoy taking time to engage and play, given belly rubs and pets, and go on walks. If you are looking for someone to provide loving and reliable care for your puppy/dog, I would be so grateful to be considered. Thank you in advance! I currently work as needed and make my own schedule so I am very flexible throughout the week and weekend. I am available on short notice for overnight boarding, drop in visits, doggy daycare and walking. I have a fenced in yard and access to a safe neighborhood with a park for walks throughout the day. I have a miniature dachshund who is very friendly to keep your dog company and one cat who is also very loving and friendly who may come say hi but for the most part minds her own business. I have a crate that could be available for use as mine doesn't use his anymore that could accommodate a small dog. I also have a puppy pen available. There is one six year old who lives in the house who is very gentle and comfortable around animals.

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs since I was 7. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to take care of their pets while they're away. I have 3 cats and 1 dog of my own who I spoil and I love helping care for others. I keep the families updated on how their pets are doing and make sure I get all the instructions on how to take the best care of them. I help with litter box duty, feeding, playing, walks etc. I'm currently a part-time worker and a college student but most of my work is online so I have plenty of time to take care of your furr babies. My availability can be talked through over text or in person. I have 4 pets of my own so I only care for pets in my client's home to avoid crowding. On overnights I do morning and night duties such as walks, breakfast, dinner, and anything other needs for the pets. On check ins I typically check in the mornings around 8am and evenings around 7pm. I can accomodate to the client's needs for their pets if needed.

About: Hi! I have been around animals my whole life. I love all types of animals and have worked with them a lot. I am comfortable walking any type of dog and also pet sitting. Feel free to contact me for more information. I have had various types of animals including dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, toads, and fish. I have also taken care of cats and other animals. I love playing with dogs and enjoy taking them on long walks to get their energy out. I have worked in an animal shelter for six years and have also worked in a horse rescue for two years. I throughly enjoy being with animals and am loving and kind to them and watch out for their needs. I look forward to meeting you.

About: I’ve looked after dogs of all ages and many different breeds, including walking, feeding, cleaning, playing, swimming, going to parks, and overnight care. I currently have an almost 3 year old dog who I have trained and cared for since he was 8 weeks old. I am currently taking asynchronous online summer classes, as well as doing some babysitting on the side, so I am very flexible in my schedule and can incorporate walks or pet care into my daily or weekly routine. Pets staying at my house have plenty of space and comfortable furniture to enjoy, as well as my dog to play with. We have a decent sized yard with several nearby parks. At clients’ homes, I make sure to respect the space and needs of the pets and owner(s), following given guidelines and residing at the house nearly full-time during pet care if needed.

Alyse G.
“Alyse is very great with dogs, and animals all around. Super loving and caring, and bit a pain over either. She has a Pomeranian of her own and has had dogs as big as German Shepards before that she has owned and watched alike. She owns three dogs now, and is very good with all of them. She's watched my dog for a week straight when I had to go out of the country. And regularly watches a cute feisty beagle about once every two months when the owner goes out of state. I recommend her to all of my friends and coworkers all the time to dog sit. Plus she's super active and athletic so taking the dogs for jogs are not a problem if ones dog likes to run.”
