Dog Sitting in Delmar

“Jackie has been absolutely wonderful to work with. She replies instantly and keeps me updated. I am new to pet ownership and having someone look after them while I have to travel for work. She has been amazing every step of the way.”

“Lucia is fantastic. We are first time reptile owners and it was great to know that our sitter has a lot of experience taking care of tortoises. We were able to leave the country knowing Ged was in capable and caring hands. She is communicative and understanding of our needs. We will definitely be rebooking with Lucia in the future!”

“Jacqueline was great! She came over prior to the booking for a meet and greet. She arrived on time to walk my dog and sent pictures of each visit.”

“Kelly was amazing! I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a dog sitter in the area. She was professional, reliable and really sweet with our older dog Scooter. We had complete peace of mind during our vacation knowing that Scooter was in good hands. We're already planning on using her during our next trip!”

“Heather was amazing in looking after our shy cat Shiva! Besides the frequent photos and daily updates, she went above and beyond in doing extra items while we were away for over a week -- truly appreciated! This is the first time using Rover for drop-in visits and will definitely be using her services again for future trips, based on her availability ❤️”

About: ❗️❗️🙂 CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS🙂❗️❗️ I've been working for Rover since 2017, and I can truly say that I adore this job! I mainly specialize in working with dogs and cats, however I am willing to work with different kinds of animals if needed. I'm also a Washington DC native, who has recently moved to Salisbury, Maryland 💛🖤❤️🤍 ⚠️❗️❗️UPDATE AS OF APRIL 2024❗️❗️⚠️: If you are new client and need someone for a extended stay Home Sitting, the longest I will be willing to stay is 3 to 5 days. Once you are a repeat client, I am then more comfortable staying for longer periods of time if needed. Pets will stay on routine by following whatever schedule the owner has set up. If it means getting up early to take a walk, that's what will happen. If I means getting out later in the afternoon for a walk, tha will be fine too. Pet care fits into my routine by me having a very opened schedule. I just moved to Easton, MD, so right now I'm looking to build a new client base here. While watching your pets in your home, I will always make sure I keep a watchful eye over them. I typically like to stay in an area that is open enough where I can see everything, but closed enough where the animal won't be out of site.

About: I’ve taken care of neighborhood pets for over eight years. I have watched dogs of all ages, sizes, and needs. I have also watched dogs with high medical needs such as epilepsy and am comfortable giving medications. I have experience with everything from drop-in visits to multiple-month stays! In addition to dogs, I am also comfortable taking care of cats, goats, and chickens and have years of experience with them as well! I am currently in physical therapy school, so my weekly schedule varies. However, I am free in the late afternoons and evenings, as well as weekends. My schedule can be relatively flexible around classes, as I am not currently working! I love spending time playing with dogs. If your dog is full of energy, I am more than willing to take them for walks and play with them to get some energy out! If your dog is more laid back, I love a good snuggle! I am comfortable crating dogs, as well as having them roam freely!

“Taylor was great with our pups and we were grateful that she was able to accommodate our last minute needs !!”

About: I’ve had dogs and have been taking care of family and friends dogs and cats for over 10 years. My family has had healthy dogs and dogs that have had medical issues over the years, and so I’m knowledgeable in looking after a dog who has undergone surgery, or who requires special care due to paralyzation. I love all animals and friends have relied on me to house sit their dogs while they go away on trips or vacations for multiple days at a time, sometimes with more than one dog at a time, or additional pets as well, so I’m very experienced in addressing each animals needs, while also sending “daily nanny cam” updates to family and friends so they can see their pets during the day and know that they’re happy and doing well. I work full time, but work from home two out of the five days, so I would be able to take your dog on multiple walks during the day, come over and stay with them for a few hours to play, or even house sit them for the day or several days if you’re going away for a trip. If they require special medication I just ask that you leave me their vitamin/mediation schedule and will administer based on your instructions. My family dog loves to cuddle with me in my lap and when she’s not allowed on the furniture, I’ll often sit on the floor with her so that she can snuggle with me. On the days that I work from home, I would be happy to stay at your home with your pets making sure their needs are met. I love my family pets and will give your pets the same love and affection that I give mine. My animals are allowed to snuggle with me on the couch or on the bed (unless you don’t want them on the furniture/ there are behavioral issues I need to be aware of, I would have them do the same thing). I walk my family dog in the afternoons and play with her throughout the day with dog toys and fetch, but will monitor if it looks like the toy is coming apart and could pose a risk to them. I would follow all instructions left when it comes to house sitting/walks/or day sitting, and would ask for you to share any behavioral issues or triggers with me in advance so I care be aware of them prior to taking your pets out on walks or just in day to day interactions. This allows me to be aware for your pets safety and the safety of any other animals we could come around. If a dog doesn’t seem friendly while we’re on a walk, I would remove your dog from that situation to try and keep them as safe as possible. I will also always reach out to contact you if there are any issues or questions I have about daily activities, medications, etc. When I dog sit at someone’s home, I recognize that I am really there just to look after their pet, so I don’t leave the house for extended periods of time and will actually put on animal shows for the pets to watch, including planet earth, or Disney pet movies. I also like to send updates that I called “nanny cams”, which are photos or videos of your pet playing or just hanging about so that you can have peace of mind that they’re happy and you can also see them while you’re away and receive updates. I will always communicate with you very openly to ensure you have peace of mind while I’m taking care of your pet.

About: I’m an experience, dog owner and true animal lover, who takes pride in providing attentive and loving care. I currently have a 100 pound German Shepherd, who I personally potty trained and taught commands like sit, lay down, wait and handshake. Through this I developed a strong understanding of dog behavior, patience and consistency. I’ve also cared for and walked dogs for friends and family. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and I treat every animal like they’re my own. In my free time I also volunteer at a local Humane Society where I walk and spend time with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I am comfortable handling different energy levels and personalities. As a student working part-time, I have a flexible and well managed scheduled that allows me to fit pet care throughout my day. I’m available most days and happy to work with owners to find times that fit their needs. I provide attentive personalized care in your home so your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I will follow your pets usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes including large, highly energy breeds, and whether it’s a walk, drop in visit, or stay my goal is to keep your pet happy safe and stress while you’re away I treat every pet like my own and prioritize their well being at all times I will also provide regular updates and photo so you can feel confident and at ease knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I love all animals and have had experience with dogs and cats all my life. I have experience handling all sizes of dogs both in my personal life and at the BVSPCA. I’ve taken care of both puppies and senior dogs and cats. Attentive care is no problem for me. I’m currently available all day Friday-Tuesday. I have classes Wednesday and Thursday, but will work with you to cover those days if you reach out three or more days in advance! I can take pets for walks, spend time playing outside with them, or even spend some time giving them belly rubs! Any need your fur baby has, you can be confident I will provide!

About: As a dog walker, my experience is enriched daily by my one-year-old golden retriever. His playful energy and gentle nature have taught me valuable lessons in dog behavior and care, ensuring every walk is both fun and safe. Hi!!! I'm free in the mornings (Mon-Thurs), thanks to my 3-11 work schedule, making me your go-to for morning dog walks! Let's get those pups moving! ☀️ Weekends (Fri-Sun) are wide open for me, so I've got plenty of flexibility to walk your dogs whenever they need🐾 It’s all about keeping your pup happy and secure! I'll stick to your dog's routine to make sure they feel safe and comfy with me.

About: I’ve been dogsitting for family friends for the past 4 years. I am willing to come stay at your house and keep your animals in the comfort of their own home while you enjoy your vacation or time away. I grew up with both a Rottweiler and a Pitbull and as an adult, my husband and I own are Bernedoodle who is the light of our lives. I currently work at the hospital full time as an RN. I am able to be up early with your pets and handle feedings and letting them out to the bathroom along with some active time before work and after I get off I can spend the rest of the evening at the house making sure your pets are given attention and well taken care of. I have off most weekends! I will care for your pets in your home as best as I can to keep your personal and normal routine. I am always willing to follow any instructions given to keep your pets comfortable while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. But I’ve cared for my dog Tickle for 12 years now. I trained him as a puppy and care for him in his old age. I can do it all!! I’ve also cared for cats and fostered cats. I can administer medication, give baths, clean litter boxes, go for walks, and more! I am currently out of work and so I’m pretty available through out the week. I babysit sometimes but it’s usually once a week and very random. I am very careful with animals!! I know taking care of my older dog I take it very serious about what he eats. I know different animals have different rules. Also.. ANIMALS NEED LOVE!! I can give them love so they don’t feel lovely, take them for walks, give them treats and food, and anything else that is needed.

“I feel so much better knowing Katherine is checking on my dogs when I'm at work. She's a real life saver.”
