House Sitting in Dares Beach

“Torrie was amazing with my dog, Boston, and made sure I got updates and pictures of their time together. Highly recommend and looking forward to our future bookings. ☺️”

“Shemoy worked closely with us to make sure our dogs were comfortable before we left them. She treated our babies like her own and always kept us fully updated :)”

Deanna G.

“Morgan took great care of our two 100+ lb mastiffs and elderly 5lb cat over the July 4th weekend. The house was left in perfect shape. The animals were happy, minimally stressed even after a night of fireworks, and had zero complaints. Morgan kept us informed all throughout the booking of the animal's welfare and activities. A++, would book again.”

“Nikki was great with my dogs, as she always is. She communicates and sends pictures frequently. She leaves the house in great shape when she leaves. She's my top choice for house sitting when I'm away.”

“Starfire did a great job and kept all my animals happy and healthy! She kept us informed with texts and pictures and I appreciate all she did for us. Thanks Starfire”

About: Hi there! I’m a stay-at-home dog mom with over 3+ years of hands-on professional experience in animal care from working in a Kennel, 10+ years of personal experience and a heart full of love for every pet I meet. Since my husband takes care of our household financially, I’m incredibly lucky to do this purely out of passion, not necessity. That means your pet isn’t just another booking to me—they become part of my daily life and routine, and I treat them like family. What sets me apart from other sitters? I’m home all day, so your furry friend gets constant love, attention, and care. I don’t overbook, and I always prioritize quality time, play, and personalized care based on your pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch, long walks, or keeping up with feeding routines and medications, I’m here to give your pet the comfort and consistency they deserve. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I don’t take that lightly. You can count on me to send regular updates, adorable photos, and give your pet a loving home-away-from-home while you're away. Pet care is my routine! I spend most of my day with animals—whether it’s my own pup or the pets I’m caring for. My availability is very, very open so please don't be afraid to reach out! I’m home full-time, which means your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and love throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep everything as stress-free and familiar as possible for your furry friend. I stick closely to your routine—meals, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special care instructions you leave. I want your pet to feel safe, secure, and comfortable in their own space while you're away. I treat your home with the utmost respect and care. I keep things clean, tidy, and organized, and I always double-check doors, gates, and food storage to ensure your pet stays safe. Whether it’s watering a few plants, bringing in the mail, or keeping your pet company during the day or overnight, I’m happy to help however I can.

About: Hello! I have been housesitting for about 5 years now for horses, dogs, cats, and more. I have experience in first aid and medication administering if needed. As well as spending my youth in 4-H and working in animal based settings, I am very knowledgeable of proper care. I strive to bring a positive energy around all animals I’m currently working part time, and I am in college part time as well. I am happy to work around both our schedules as I can be flexible! Any time spent with animals is time well spent for me! I am happy to continue whatever schedule/habits you like to keep your pets on while you’re away. I have learned so much about proper care over the years, and I will ensure your pet is happy and healthy!

“Faith is a fantastic petsitter! We were out of town for 8 days and didn't have to worry about a thing back home. It was wonderful to find a caring person who could spend this much time with our pets. Boarding can be so stressful on our big dogs, but Faith was able to do overnights and wasn't intimidated by our Dobermans in the slightest. She was a perfect fit, and we were so blessed to find her on Rover. It was our first experience with the service platform being new to Southern Maryland, but we will be repeat customers for sure.”

“Liz was wonderful! She went above and beyond to make sure our timid dog was comfortable and that we knew she was cared for. I definitely recommend Liz as a dog sitter.”

About: With years of experience caring for dogs, I stand out as a pet sitter due to my ability to also look after my clients’ plants/garden from time-to-time. My lifelong passion for animals includes providing special care for young and senior dogs, ensuring their health and happiness. My current schedule varies, but I typically work 7-hour shifts on Sundays and Mondays. On the these dates, I can manage pet care for all dogs that have a wait period to be let out 4-8 hrs. If necessary, I have the flexibility to call off work to ensure your pets are well taken care of. From Tuesday to Saturday, I have open availability, allowing me to dedicate ample time to pet care activities, such as walks, feeding, and playtime. This arrangement helps me balance work commitments while ensuring your pets receiving the attention and care they need. In caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment. I ensure to follow detailed instructions provided by the client to meet the specific needs of their dog. For instance, if a dog is anxious during thunderstorms, I am proactive in reaching out via call or text to discuss calming strategies. Additionally, I always clarify any boundaries regarding what I can handle or access in the home and to build a stronger rapport, I will arrange pre-sitting meetings with clients to better understand their preferences and to bond with their dog(s).

About: I've been a dog owner for over 20 years and was a foster parent for a San Diego based rescue group for over 3. I currently volunteer as a dog walker at a local Southern Maryland rescue and also foster with them as well. Our family has cared for, trained and assisted with the adoption of many different breeds from small to large and all ages, puppies less than 12 weeks included. In addition we puppy raise and train service dogs for a non-profit organization based out of NY. Pets bring so much love and joy to our lives and deserve the best care when we are away. I can promise they will receive the same love and attention as if you were home yourself. Current pet is a 13 year old yellow lab and pointer mix that we've had since he was 12 weeks old. He loves long walks, swimming in any body of water and snuggling with his cat brother, Tucker. In addition we have a 2 year old beagle that nothing but fun. References are available upon request. I work remotely and am home during the day. This allows me flexibility to care my own fur-children and yours from either my home or yours. I have a large fenced yard, friendly pups, a dog room and plenty of crates. We often crate and rotate to make sure our pups get enough one on one and would do the same for yours.

“I highly recommend Mackenzie! She did an excellent job caring for our pups while we were out of town. She gave them plenty of exercise, love, and attention. I was confident the dogs were in capable hands the entire time. If you’re looking for someone reliable and trustworthy to care for your furry family member book Mackenzie.”

About: I have been told that I am very patient when it comes to pets. I let them come to me and if they don’t want to I don’t force them. I am very careful to make sure the pets are happy and can get to know and love any pet. My life can fluctuate from busy to free depending on the time of year, but I always make time for my pets. It makes me happy to see them and take care of them on a daily and weekly basis. To care for pets, I make sure that they are ok and give them food and water first. Then I give them all the attention they need and make sure they are happy. I don’t just check in and leave, I like to spend time with them so they aren’t lonely.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 5 years old and have been around almost every breed. Have also delt with dogs with anxiety and a newborn pups. I work part time and have plenty of time to take care and love on your pup, and let them have the best time and exercise. I have a fenced in yard , and lovable playful pup of my own. I can crate dog or dogs if needed. Make sure they are fed given water ( medicine if needed) . Love going on walks .

About: I have had a dog I my life as long as I can remember and while when I was younger I may not have given all the care I loved them as much as I could. I have had my own pup, Deacon, for over a year and have treated him as my child and he is very spoiled (but who’s dog isn’t). I have recently trained him as a pschiatric service dog and while training is always going to be a work in progress he is doing wonderfully. I would love to meet and take care of your dog whenever you need and would treat them as if they were my own! I am currently a college student taking primarily evening classes so will typically be available any day during the week from 12-4 and anytime on the weekends I have a very friendly and energetic dog who loves going on walks and to the dog park and would love to have you pup join us. At home I make sure they are fed when scheduled (for mine 2 times a day) and always have a full water bowl. I take them out for potty breaks 3-4 times a day as needed and will play or chill inside with them as they want.

“I have nothing but good things to say. Took care of my Atti like she was family. She will be so happy to go back in a couple weeks to play with Blaze again!”

About: I've had animals all my life! I love them all! I'm great with cats, dogs, pigs, and rabbits! I take special care of all my animals. I am self employed. I am available throughout the weekdays when most people are at work to be able to pop in and check on your pets as needed. Weekends as well. We have a fenced in yard. Cats would remain indoors unless stated otherwise. As long as your pets don't mind a toddler we should be great!

About: I have had animals all my life and currently have 2 cats that are mine. My two dogs also live at home so I have been around animals all my life. I’m currently working part time due to school this upcoming semester. Most of my classes are online so I spend a lot of time at home. I make frequent stops at home during the work day as I’m only 10 minutes from home to let my dogs out of my parents aren’t home. I have an electric fence however dogs would be put on leash. My cats have all their necessities in my room so the pet I would be pet sitting for would stay in the guest bedroom in the basement with me to avoid troubles.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life, so I have a lot of experience taking care of them. We are huge dog lovers in my house, so no dog is too big or too small. I volunteered at the Humane Society for about two years in high school. I would visit on Tuesdays and Thursdays to help clean the kennels, walk dogs, wash dogs, have play time with them in the office, as well as participate in adoption events. Lastly, I do have experience pet-sitting for multiple families and have two dogs of my own. I would love to be able to watch over your furry friends or take them on walks whenever needed, so that’s why I provide such a flexible schedule! I graduated from the University of Tennessee in May and now work from home running my marketing business, Lawson Marketing. I have plenty of time throughout the day to stop by for visits or to take dogs on walks, especially since I have a puppy of my own that needs to go out frequently. My services include drop-in visits as well as dog walking. I want to cater to each family's and their pet’s unique needs, so I strive to provide special care for each and every dog. I will prioritize their well-being by following any routines as well as adhering to any special needs. Another big factor that I will prioritize is communication. I want every family to know that their fur babies are in great hands!

About: I have 4 dogs of my own that range from all sizes and breeds. I also work as a kennel attendant at a local boarding facility and when not caring for my own dogs I enjoy helping others care for theirs in the comfort of their own home. While currently a part time student and part time employee some days are busy. During the week I am only available in the morning and evening on Tuesdays and Thursdays but have open availability throughout the rest of the week. Weekend availability will always vary but will be known in advance. While caring for your dog in your home I am always ready to adapt to their environment and care for them as you would on any ordinary day and do what it takes to make them feel comfortable and loved.
