“Catie always takes such good care of my pup, introduces her to new dogs and experiences, and communicates proactively about general updates and any potential concerns. Bertie loves going over and comes home tired and happy.”

“Rita was absolutely amazing with my dog, Natalie! Natalie can be reactive and typically needs time to adjust to new environments and people, but Rita went above and beyond to make sure she felt comfortable and supported. She took the time to really understand Natalie’s needs, triggers, and what makes her happy, which made such a difference. I really appreciated the regular photo updates and how communicative she was throughout—checking in, asking thoughtful questions, and keeping me reassured the entire time. It’s clear Rita genuinely cares and puts in the extra effort, and because of that, Natalie had a great experience. I’m so grateful and would absolutely book with her again. Thank you, Rita!”

Dominique S.

“Nicole and her family were so welcoming to our puppy! Our puppy has a wonderful time with Nicole. Nicole responded promptly to our messages and was accommodating to our needs.”

Nicole R.

“Tabatha took absolutely amazing care of our timid dog Beetle. It was Beetle’s first time coming for daycare and, though Beetle was nervous, Tabatha did a great job building a relationship at Beetle’s pace. She was patient and caring with Beetle and provided us lots of photos and updates detailing Beetle’s day and mood. Would 100% recommend!!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover since a kid, and am excited to care for your pet! I’m a grad student in MD and am a proud pet parent of 2 Yorkie-mix dogs. I have experience with pet feeding, long walks, and fun playtime. I’m also comfortable administering medications and caring for dogs of all sizes. My husband and I are fairly flexible, and I often work from home. We have a large backyard where your dog(s) can safely play and enjoy the outdoors. I’m a grad student who has a very flexible schedule. I walk the dogs around 7:30am, brush their teeth, and set out their food. I also go on midday walks so they are mentally and physically stimulated. My husband takes the dogs out for long walks in the evenings as well. We are happy to include your pets into this schedule or add any additional care into this routine per your request and/or according to your pet’s needs. I have a large yard and 2 lovable pups that can keep your dog(s) company. We go on frequent walks and bathroom breaks around our quiet neighborhood and have tons of play space around the house. I am happy to honor any requests to care for one family’s pets at a time, and will absolutely treat your pet(s) as if they were my own.

About: Hi! I’ve been around animals my whole life and absolutely love caring for them. Over the past year, I’ve lived with three dogs, two parrots, and 4 cats, and before that, I lived with and helped care for around 23 rescue animals. Everything from lizards and turtles to dogs, goats, and horses! My goal is to pursue a career in animal care, and pet sitting is the perfect way to gain even more hands on experience with different breeds and personalities. I’m patient, responsible, and passionate about making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I’m suppose to start college in December and am not employed, at the moment I am free all day and all night and can care for your pets whenever and give them the most comfortable stay, and lots of attention. I have a fenced in yard and a wide dog cage in the backyard and in the house in case your pet needs to be caged. I take care of both my dog and my mother’s elderly dog they eat and get walked at around the same time every day and go outside to play with toys or just to run around the yard a lot throughout the day.

About: New homeowners looking to love on more dogs! We work from home and have one extremely kind and playful black lab, Bolt. We grew up with TONS of animals, difficult and easy, big and small. We have a passion for all furry pets and enjoy play sessions, long walks, pets & cuddles, and just talking to them. We believe pet care involves not just food and potty breaks, but also respecting what makes them happiest. Whether your pet likes a ton of attention or likes to be independent, we meet your pet where they are. We welcome meet & greets, video chats, and any other way you'd like to connect. We also love taking Instagram-worthy pics of all our pups and will keep you posted about your pet's stay at all times! We work from home and love taking breaks with our pup and any guests. We live close to several dog parks and walking trails and love going on adventures after work. We have a fenced yard and plenty of running room for the dogs. We are able to separate animals safely with baby gates fir feeding time or to give them rest time. We really look to cater to your animal’s needs. When your dog is comfortable with us, they are happy and we love hanging out with happy dogs!

About: Dogs have been my best friends since childhood. Caring for them isn’t just a job—it’s something I genuinely enjoy. From long walks to belly rubs, bath time to playtime, I treat every dog like family. Whether your pup needs a cozy overnight stay, a fun afternoon of fetch, or just some extra TLC while you're away, I’m here to help them feel safe, loved, and right at home. I am currently a stay at home parent with plenty of time to spend with your fur baby so they are never alone. They can have frequent bathroom breaks as needed as well as play time in the back yard. I am available weekdays and weekends as well. I have a huge fenced back yard and my 13 year old fur baby to help keep their company . I can also crate on request although I do not like crating.

About: I’ve done rover before and I’ve made long friends with watching their pets I’ve seen them grow and be the best fur balls they are I only work on the weekends 9pm-7am so I’m home during the week. Your fur babies will have my full attention all week I will be home with them the whole time It depends on how the owner would like me to do things but I would walk them , play with them and depending on weather go to a park

“Jeramy is amazing! She is so patient and loving with our girl and her dog Henry is so sweet. What a relief to have someone who is kind and dependable to watch our dog. Highly recommend!!!”

“Malvi and Andrej are great. They are thoughtful about how different dogs will get along. They have a big backyard and the pups get lots of playtime outside. The first floor of their house is well set up for dogs, and they take really good care of the pups who come to spend the day. My dog has done day care at their house as well as boarding, and she comes home relaxed and happy every time.”

Ruby S.

“Crystal is so amazing!!! She is patient, thoughtful and caring. My Junior was well taken care and I felt comfortable with leaving him with Crystal. I’ve already booked my next appointment for Junior and I know there will be many more appointments in the future. Crystal is the best!!!”

About: I have experience fostering a puppy and volunteering at dog shelters, where I regularly take dogs out for walks and give them loving attention. I grew up with a golden retriever named Max, which sparked my lifelong love for dogs. Caring for dogs is something I truly enjoy, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am available throughout the weekdays and select weekends. I kindly ask for advance notice when possible, as I am a college student balancing my schedule. I care for pets in a safe, calm home environment with plenty of space to play and relax. I live in a house with a large backyard. I am happy to crate your dog if needed, as long as you provide the crate.

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs over the years I LOVE DOGS SOOO MUCH. I have a small Morkie! In fact, I love doggies so much I would watch them for free however this site suggests you make money, so I’m ok with that too:-) I’m able to work from home so I’m available to play whenever your doggie wants can’t wait to babysit your furry friend and play with her/him I work vey hard to make sure your doggie is safe. We have a storm door so your doggie can’t run out, and I always make sure your doggie is on a leash outside your doggie’s happiness and safety are my top priority.

About: I can do anything from walking to giving baths or from filling food and water to providing medicine 🐾 I’m okay with dogs of all ages and sizes from puppies to pitbulls and from the sick to the elderly 🙂 I can work remotely so it fits in quite easily. I live in Greenbelt, MD and my office is in DC (when I do decide to go into work), so really anywhere in the suburbs I’m willing to drive to! Any special instructions will be listened to and I will take great care of your pet(s). Hopefully things work out and you can be a regular-ish client! Please note: if you have a larger breed dog and I’m boarding multiple dogs, I might require them to where a bark collar that just buzzes if they get aggressive. Depending on their behavior. It helps with mitigation. I have never had any accidents happen under my watch and would like to keep it that way.

“Josefa took special care of Indy and treated him with lots of love! She was very quick at responding to me and sent lots of pictures. I would definitely book again with her!”

“WOW! for our hyper-attached dog's first 1/2 day with Angela, we are so impressed! When we picked Skippy up, I had to throw a treat to lure her away from Angela 🥳 Then Skippy wanted to walk a bit on Angela's street and afterward Skippy went to Angela's gate instead of to our car. That behavior speaks volumes about Skippy's comfort level with Angela. Angela appears to have a very calming influence on Skippy 🥰 Thank you, Angela!”
