“Tabitha is an incredible sitter and companion for my dog Scout. I can see the care and detail she takes in playing with him and making him feel important. I travel a lot for work and it’s just me so it’s always stressful knowing I have to leave my dog behind. But I’m always assured he’s in great hands with Tabitha. Thank you for all that you do. It truly matters.”
“Carly is simply the best! She is so caring and great with communication. I love that I get pictures from walks every day and seeing how happy Baxter is hanging out with her. She even brings in our packages from the doorstep without being asked! We have been SO lucky to have her taking care of our boy the past few months.”
“Whitney is an amazing walker for our full of life puppy WALL-E. Her introduction was very friendly. Her communication is great. I would definitely recommend Whitney to anyone and for the new and existing ROVER members that's in the area. Take heed to what's needed for our handsome little guy!! You Rocks Whitney!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, hermit crabs, various aquarium fish, and plants to the best of the owner’s instructions and rules. For over 10 years, I simply enjoy being around intelligent loving creatures as I hope they liked me. I am looking to fill up my available time with more companions who are looking to get tons of belly rubs and head scratches (if they prefer of course). I am actively constantly taking care of my roommate’s dog as she is frequently traveling for work and personal reasons. I usually have him 2-3 weeks of a month, about half the year. If not, I drop in and feed/walk/scoop out my neighbor’s pet(s).
“Alaina was incredibly communicative and respectful. She took care of Enzo for a whole weekend and made sure I was updated in terms of where she took my baby Enzo and when she fed him/refilled his water. Overall, I 100% respect her for her services and trust her with any pet.”
“Priscilla has been watching Jake for almost a month now and she is great. Jake adores her, he loves walking and playing with her, and she takes great care of him. Priscilla communicates very well with me before and after she walks Jake, and she sends several pictures and video. She also asks a lot of questions about any special care or needs Jake might need. I can tell she really cares about Jake, and animals in general, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog walker/sitter”
“This week was the first time, hopefully of many, Ashley and Olivia walked our 2 dogs, a lab and a husky. We appreciate their communication, good questions they asked at our first meeting, and care expressed for our pups! Thank you for helping us take care of our pups!”
“Raymond was AMAZING! 10 for 10! Highly recommend super cool guy who is attentive and active with dogs during walks. Wiped their feet down when coming back in the house, ensured they had food and water before leaving. Definitely will be booking again in the future!”
About: Experience working at a doggy day care as a contract worker and tons of life long experience with personal dogs. 5 years experience of looking after pets for others! I am fully home focusing for my June LSAT, so I have tons of time to give your pet all the attention they deserve! I am also an early bird so if your pet is at mine, we will get some fun morning yoga in and all the long walks for a healthy workout :) I have the same energy even when I come for just daily routine visits and more. My house is a family of four so tons of supervision! I make sure to almost always have pets in my sight when supervising for everyones safety. I make sure to follow every protocol listed by owner. Additionally, when dog boarding at my house, rest assure your fur baby will get all the loving as I have a younger sister whose responsible and loving energy attracts all the fur babies! So do not worry, your pet will have me, my sister and my house to relax and play at :)
“Jaylynn was the absolute best - very kind and accommodating. She took very good care of our very active border collie while we were away; making sure he had enough exercise. She was very prompt and responsive. Highly recommend her if you are looking for someone to take great care of your pet!”
“Jenny has been great with my dog Buddy! We've gotten into a routine with her coming by regularly and he is in such a better mood when I get home because he got to play with Jenny. She asks all the right questions and I know he's getting good care while I'm gone. Thank you, Jenny!”
About: I've taken care of dogs for family, friends, and neighbors since I was about 9 years old. I have been responsible for feeding, bathing, walking their pets & administering medication when necessary. I have experience training dogs at various ages & a wide range of breeds. I have training experience including but not limited to, crate training, potty training, leash training, etc. I have taken care of dogs as small as Shih Tzus to as large as Rottweilers, so I am comfortable around dogs of various sizes. I was the primary care taker for our family's' 2 senior dogs; being sure to give them around the clock access to the bathroom as well as being punctual with any and all medications. My pet care experience is not limited to dogs alone I have cared for cats for friends & family for 4 years. Feeding, playing, changing/cleaning litter & administering medication when needed. I adore all animals and ensuring your pet is loved, safe, and cared for is my top priority. I work 8am-5pm in Elkridge, MD. I have plenty of evening and early morning availability. Depending on location, I am available during lunch breaks for any midday walks/feedings. I want to ensure the pets comfort is the priority. Keeping their routine and providing a loving space while their family is away. Both cats and dogs of any age need ample amount of exercise & affection; even the most independent of animals!
About: Growing up on a farm, care for dogs, cats, and other beloved animals is second nature. I was raised caring for the farm, worked in a dog kennel, have rescued two cats, and have dog sat, cat sat, and house sat for many friends over the years. I help my family with their three large dogs and my sister with her pitmix rescue, so I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, and I love cats. I work in the Hanover area, and my schedule allows for flexible mornings, a break in the afternoon, and available evenings. I am able to reliably care for pets in the morning and evenings and ensure a midday bathroom break Monday-Friday. I am available closer to Severna Park on weekends. I think quality time is imperative for our pets, so I make sure that they have plenty of time with me when their owners are away and prioritize their playtime and enrichment. For dogs, this means walks, playing with toys, or just hanging out (whatever your best friend prefers)! For cats, I reasonably lean in to their zoomies when they arise to help work off any energy, and then give them their space when they need it. I understand that everyone has different philosophies and concerns regarding their pets' care, and I make sure that my care matches the guidelines you have for your pet so their routine and care stays consistent even while you are away.
About: Working Knowledge of dogs behaviour; training life skills(preparing puppies for life, walking problems, fears); activities as chasing the ball, treat hunt, high jump, relaxation and more. Pet care typically fits into a daily routine by incorporating feeding times, dedicated playtime or exercise sessions, bathroom breaks (like walks for dogs), and brief moments of interaction throughout the day. Beginning and end a day with my pet: morning/evening walks, playtime, feeding. Our own routine: give everything dogs need to be happy while walking, and they can feel calm and satisfied at home.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes, as well as cats! I have a chocolate lab and tabby cat who are my pride and joy! It would be an honor to provide care and play with your furry babies while you are unable to be there! I am currently between full time jobs so I will have plenty of time to walk/play with/look after your fur babies! I am flexible and can work with your schedule if communicated with me! I live in an apartment with my cat and a chocolate lab to keep your pets company! I can separate my pets from yours if needed!

Paige S.
“When you're looking for someone who understands the responsibility that comes with taking care of animals, it's pretty hard to beat someone who grew up on a farm. I've had her take care of my dogs every time my wife and I have gone out of town for the last two years and have never been concerned about the big fluffers (after the first time went smoothly at least). She has been happy to work with all of our "special" feeding instructions. One of our dogs was very overweight when we adopted him so we have had him on a strict diet to get him healthy and she didn't flinch at all of the extra food instructions we left. I hate leaving the dogs behind, but they get so excited when they see her that I'm pretty sure they view it as a vacation too. 11/10 stars. Just don't book her when I need her watch my dogs :)”

Myacks adores Jaicy and looks forward to her walks every day. Jaicy is great with Macks even though she is not the best trained and can be a real strong puller when she forgets her leash manners around other dogs/runners. Jaicy gives great updates and takes great care of our baby girl.
