About: I have many years of dog care experience! I have a decade of professional kennel experience but I've been taking care of dogs way before that. I grew up with many breeds especially when I lived on a ranch in Florida. I am experienced with any age of dog! I LOVE senior dogs so if you have an elder furry friend and you wish for them to be fully taken care of & tended to, feel free to reach out! I’m good with puppies, adults, seniors, big breeds, challenging dogs etc. I will tend to their needs and give them the necessary love, attention and care that they require while you are away. I can let them out to potty lots of times in day. Let me know their routine and I will be sure to follow through with it while they are with me! I will treat them as if they were my own! I will also stick with any set routine/care that they have and will be sure they stay happy and healthy. I always keep my house secure and am always careful when leaving the house so nobody runs out. I live in a peaceful and quiet neighborhood. I will send daily updates with pics to ease your nerves on leaving your beloved furry friend. I strive to make your pets feel comfortable, let me know of anything that is needed to help them stick to their usual routine and living style!

“Our timid little dog took to Sarah immediately! Sarah was delightful and felt like a member of the family by the time she left. We will trust her with Annie anytime we are away! ❤️✨”

About: Taking care of domestic and exotic animals growing up was an enjoyable, it gives this heartwarming feeling. I have over 15 years of experience of taking care different pets. I am willing to go out of my way for my pets, friends, family and new clients. I helped with dogs birth, puppies care, and senior care. I have a set schedule for my dog from the time I wake up to going to bed at night. Feeding, exercise and playtime will be tracked so you know your pet is getting what they need. I will obey all rules and schedule that is given to me for the best care for your pet. Your pet is in great hands, playtime and optional bathe will be included in house sitting so you can come home to a happy and clean pet if they end up having too much fun outside.

“Needed last minute help and India pulled through! She made a stressful day easier by walking and playing with our puppy. Will definitely be using again!”

About: Moved to California, MD area from being stationed in Japan! With a lifetime of experience caring for cats and dogs, I know that pets are more than just animals—they’re family. I’ve raised three dogs and currently have both a poodle and a cat. My skills include puppy training, crate training, basic command training, and managing pets with medical needs, including medication administration. I’m also experienced with reactive dogs, allergies, and maintaining breed-specific grooming standards. As a passionate pet lover, I volunteered with the Red Cross animal visitation program while Active Duty & St Mary Animal Humane Society. You can trust me to treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own! I work part-time and live 10 minutes from my house. I always check in on my pets during lunch. My husband works nights so he is home while I’m at work and we switch. I have a fenced yard, and lots of dog friendly walking areas. I have two friendly pets who do very well with other animals. I crate my dog when I leave home for safety & use cameras to check in on them.

“Katie did great with my two furbabies and sent several photos! Will definitely have her come back!!”

“Haley was available last min when our other sitter didn't work out and took great care of our puppy. She communicated well and we'll definitely be using her again!”

Louie and Nicole J.

“Christina is an amazing animal person. She has gone above and beyond for us on more than a few occasions. When one of our cats became I’ll and we couldn’t find a vet to get us in, she made a few recommendations and we were into one that day. I wish we could bring her with us but moved out of the area.”

About: I have a variety of pet care experience, from a board in kennel worker, to a kennel technician at a humane society, and my own lived experience with 5 different dogs across my lifetime. I've never met a dog I couldn't get along with! I'm patient and give all the care I can to any animal in my care! I'm a graduate college student so if you need pet care during the week, it will have to be after 5 or before 9. The weekends are completely free and I would be happy to watch your dog or cat all day!! When I'm taking care of pets, I follow whatever routine is given to me as closely as possible. This includes regular feeding, letting dogs out to the go to the bathroom or play, and sitting with the dogs as much as I can, whether that be in the same room with them, or actively petting and playing with them. I try to be as present and caring as possible and I will follow any rules you have for your animals!

About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I would be honored to care for your pet friends! I currently have two sweet cats that I adore, and I frequently watch my family’s Havanese dog. I also have experience pet sitting and walking larger dogs, so I am comfortable with pets of all sizes. I have experience working with all ages, from helping with puppy and kitten training to providing gentle care to elderly pets. I tailor care to each pet’s needs, making sure they feel loved, safe, and happy while you’re away. My pets have big personalities, so I understand pets’ unique quirks and am happy to follow any special routines. Just let me know how I can help! My schedule is very flexible right now, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! My Rover calendar is up to date with my availability, so don’t hesitate to reach out for any pet sitting, dog walking, or drop in visits. During visits, I focus on making pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow each pet’s routine for feeding, playtime, litter box care, or walks. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, and I always respect my clients’ homes while providing loving, reliable care.

“Jillian drops in daily to let my pups out to play and is amazing with them. She helps train and allows them much needed mid day exercise. Very responsive and communicates well. Trustworthy in home while away. My go to pet sitter.”

About: I love animals especially dogs. I chose to dog sit because I love helping others and I know what it feels like to have to leave you pet behind or alone for extended hours. I would want to know that they are safe and in trustworthy hands and that's exactly how you should feel if your pet is left with me. They will be treated like family and nothing less. It should be a relaxing time for you to get a break away from the craziness but also for them to have some tail wagging fun! I’ve worked at a dog kennel for a two years and have lots of experience with all kinds of dogs I am a teacher so I work from 7-3, M-F. I can do anything around that schedule that you and I work out. I will care for every pet left with me as my own and how the owner asks for me to do so. Lots of love, respect, and understanding

About: My love for animals started the day a stray Bassett hound wandered into my garage at the ripe age of 4. Ever since then I have taken in all animals under my care as my own! I love take care of all the furry friends! I have personally owned puppies, big dogs, cats, fish, hedgehogs and gerbils - although not at the same time (could you imagine, yikes) and watched after the same! I have done any and all visits whether it is a quick play date or a longer visit due to vacation! I enjoy building a long term relationship to provide a dependable sitter throughout the year! I have a child in elementary school and work at a high school during the day. If and when an overnight sitter is needed, I assure you I make arrangements prior to accepting to give my 100% to your fur baby! I like to mimic the care the dog has at home to make sure they are most comfortable. In the beginning I expect normal hesitation, so I am patient and playful to earn trust until everyone is comfortable.

About: I have had dogs in my household ever since I was a little girl. I have had a chocolate lab, boxer mix, basset hound, German shepard, pit bull, and now Mr. Oakley who is a lab/pit mix. I love to bond and care for fur babies and I enjoy playing and loving on them any chance I can get. Hi! I’m currently a full-time teacher in Anne Arundel County and an experienced caregiver who loves spending time with animals. My background in education has made me responsible, communicative, and dependable. Starting in June, I’ll have a much more flexible schedule as I transition from teaching, allowing me to offer more availability for walks and drop-ins. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I care for my pets in my home by making sure their food and water bowls are always full and fresh. I make sure that my dog gets some outdoor playtime each day to burn off his energy and to be able to stay healthy and to help us bond together. I love to spoil my dog with homemade popsicles, treats, and yogurt bars are his favorite! My dog loves to have all attention on him and he is a sucker for a belly rub followed by jumping in your bed to snuggle with you.

“Bre did an awesome job watching our puppy and kitty.. They were so happy when we got home. She took Peanut on nice walks and Loki was super happy. We would love to have her watch them again int e future.”

Kristin K.

“Amazing dog sitter!! She is very kind and trustworthy. She also sent lots of photos of my dog, which I loved. I would definitely recommend her and will be rebooking with her!”

About: I love all animals especially dogs. I think they are the most loyal and loving animals on this earth. I have over 19 year of caring for dogs of all sizes. I have trained all my dogs myself, and they are very well behaved. Dogs love me and they will be in good hands. I can crate your dog if you require and work on obedience training. I have over five acres that the dogs can run around and play, supervised of course. I have two dogs Latte and Brown and they provide great company to their visitors. I can provide pickup and drop off service. Cost is based on distance. Feel free to send me questions. Free meet and great upon request, and I can bring Latte and Brown for introductions.

About: Hi! I have experience pet sitting, both cats and dogs. I also had a dog walking business when I was a kid. I have experience with all kinds of dogs due to my time working as a kennel tech. My love for animals also led me to work at multiple stables as well as at an animal hospital. I love going on walks and occasional runs. If your pooch is active I would be happy to take them on walks and runs. I am also happy to curl up on the couch with snuggly pups. I currently have a Great Pryenees named Maui Jim who likes to lounge a lot. I work part time so I have free time to take care of pups on occasional weekends and throughout the week! If you have any questions on availability please reach out! I understand how to properly care for dogs as I have one myself. I have experience working with all types of dogs from my time at the DogSpot Hotel. I am willing to crate dogs if needed, and I am a very fast learner if your home has any security measures in place for me to use.
