“Absolutely amazing! Cyrus immediately fell in love with her calm and warm presence and the added healthy snacks were a plus! She was very attentive to both his and our needs and was very easy and friendly to work with. We will definitely be seeing more of her in the future!”


“Although I ended up having to cancel my trip so Ashley/Olivia didn’t end up doing the drop in visits, Olivia was great at the drop-in visit I scheduled before our trip! My chinchillas took to her immediately. Gus, our fiestiest boy, happily accepted cheek scritches from her and another one of my chins even let her pick him up :) That says a lot about how she interacts with animals because as prey animals, trust doesn’t come easily to chinchillas. She also asked a lot of important questions about their care which I appreciated. She was super responsive and flexible about when I came to pick up my key from her. I would feel at ease with her taking care of my pets the next time I need care for them!”


“Carly is great with our dogs. She always provides me with details and pictures of her drop in visits, which puts me at ease about our elder dog and our Labrador with epilepsy. She is always responsive very and flexible with our ever changing needs. We are so glad we found her!”


“Abby did a great job with our dogs. Our little guy is fickle about people and he warmed right up to her. Reliable and friendly, we will definitely be using her again.”


About: About Me: Hello, my name is Cin! I have 2 dogs, Coki and Mylo and they are my babies! I love dogs more than anything in the world.

Whether your furry companion needs a cuddle, a walk, or just some playtime, I’m here to help with love and attention. Reliable, communicative, and flexible. Please let me know if your dog: Has anxiety Takes medication Is crate trained Is potty trained Any behavior issues I should know about Are they socialized with humans and dogs Anything they love in particular I’m a full-time student I work from home so I am available to help out. I am currently available for dog walking and drop ins for dogs and cats! Please feel free to provide detailed instructions as to how you would like your pet to be cared for, such as food and walk times and quantities.

“Wonderful walks with detailed updates. I think our dogs would be happy if we went on another trip as long as they get to stay with grandma and have these lovely walks! Caring and kind. Will absolutely book again. It’s a relief to have Laurie and James available for our pups.”


“Kaitlin did a phenomenal job with our furry ones. Great communication, did everything the way asked and even did little things to make sure we knew everything was being taken care of. From the check in photos to seeing how our doggos were treating her we knew she was taking wonderful care of them. 100% recommended and will definitely come back to her the next time we might need anything.”


“Justin did an excellent job visiting my dogs and building rapport with their personalities! He was extremely communicative and provided photos for each visit. I really appreciate Justin for his complete transparency with my dogs and following our care instructions”


“Samantha took great care of our animals, she was prompt and communicated all concerns immediately. We were able to have a great vacation knowing our babies were well cared for!”



“Priscilla is very friendly and gentle with my kitty. She sent me many pictures and letting me know how my kitty is doing. I would love to use her service again.”


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).

“Trusting anyone with your pet and home for the first time can be hard - but Jessica made it easy! She is very flexible and responsive. You can just tell upon meeting her that she truly cares about your pet. She was so responsive and flexible! Loved the pictures she sent and even brought in some packages for us.”


“Pheben came through for us with very little notice. She’s been very reliable and really helped put my mind at ease after last minute travel plans. I would certainly recommend and book again based on this experience. Like most pet owners I love it when my boys are happy with their sitter, but even more so, i love knowing that they are in the hands of a trustworthy and responsible sitter. We were lucky enough to check all these boxes with Pheben!”


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.
