About: Hello! I am Kelly and I love dogs and birds and nature. I am a stay at home mom to two humans and two four legged fluffies. I have a fully fenced in yard and love being outside playing with dogs, or taking them on walks or hikes around the area. Send me a message and let's plan how I can help you with your pet needs! I'm a stay at home mom so I will have plenty of time to care for and give all the attention your pet deserves. I can board them on weekdays or weekends, or come to your place for a house visit and potty break. I have a fully fenced in yard with plenty of space for the dogs to run and play in. I have two friendly dogs who love playing with new friends. My yard is also divided if you would rather your pet have their own play area. As for visit to your place, I have my own reliable vehicle and I work on my own schedule.
About: I am reliable, loving, and attentive, ensuring pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while their owners are away. I feel pets are part of the family and I do allow them on my furniture and give lots of snuggles and kisses. I have over 26 years of experience raising my own pets to identify sickness and can administer meds (including insulin shots) if needed. Your fur babies will be my top priority and I promise to care for them like they are my own. I am available for watching your fur baby in my home to include overnight or coming to your house (not overnight), walks, or other care you may need. My schedule is flexible and will accommodate your needs. I have a privacy fenced yard and 4 sweet pups of my own to keep your dog(s) company. My property has multiple video cameras for security and I can send you photos and videos while you are away or FaceTime with you so you can see your babies are having fun and being well taken care of and loved. I understand pet care very well as I have had 8 fur babies previous to the 4 I have currently from big dogs to little dogs. I am very aware of changes in behavior or if fur babies aren’t feeling well and will communicate with you if I think your baby is not feeling well.
“Emily is wonderful and Layla immediately warmed up to Emily which is wonderful and gave me peace while on travels. I highly recommend Emily, she is a warm person, easy to talk to, professional and a wonderful person. I will ask Emily to care for Layla with my future travels that I'm not able to take Layla. Thank you Emily for a wonderful job.”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets for several years & can be trusted in the comfort of your home to meet your pets needs! Family & friends have been able to rely on me & know that they are in the best of hands! I have a puppy of my own & a senior dog & they are my best friends, I’m hoping to make some more!! During the week I work very early in the morning, so I am free for any pet services after that! I typically work a little later on the weekends, generally to mid afternoon if so, but my schedule is very flexible! I have a lot of free time to spare. I go by whatever schedule your pet has, based on their eating & sleeping times, and everything in between!! If they just need a little play date or a long stroll around the neighborhood, I’m here! If they have a jam-packed day of fun… I’ll also be there! I’ve dealt with crate trained animals & also animals that roam free, big & small! Anything your pet needs, I’ve got it!
“Meeting Kat for the first time was a wonderful experience. She has a friendly and outgoing personality, and our dog, Wrigley, warmed up to her instantly. We’re excited to have her take care of Wrigley and house-sit for us while we’re away on vacation.”
“Malcolm is awesome! He was prompt, professional, friendly, and best of all loved our dogs and they love him. He took the time to get to know them, asked us questions, provided us with an update after the walks. We love working with Malcolm and will request him again. Thank you!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was five years old. I grew up with a cocker spaniel, who really tied our family together with love. In grad school I rescued a mix breed and named her Eirene, which means peace. She brought a lot of peace to my life. We have doodles now, who are perfect family dogs. When we go away we like to know our dogs are being well cared for. I enjoy offering that peace of mind to families. You can enjoy your time away knowing your pup is in a loving home environment and being well cared for. I’m a homeschooling mom to two teenage boys. Our days are usually spent at home and our evenings are full with various activities. We would welcome your dogs in our home and treat them as part of our family. We have a fenced yard with plenty of space to run and explore. We go on two walks every day, one in the morning and one in the evening and offer endless ear scratches and belly rubs.
About: Big dogs, little dogs; I have over 25 years of experience with animals. Growing up, I worked at Gaithersburg Animal Hospital where I walked, fed, cleaned, and performed lab work.

Your dogs will not stay crated and can access the entire property. We have cameras, which you can access to check up on your pet. We play fetch, swim in our doggy pool, and get walked regularly. Other Services Provided Upon Request – Baths, Photos, Hikes

“Matthew is responsive, conscientious and clearly experienced in working with animals. He walks our three dogs, including managing our dog-reactive German Shepherd. We will absolutely continue working with him and consider ourselves lucky to have found such a great person to care for our animals.”
About: Hi! My name is April. After growing up around dogs, my husband and I decided to get our first dog-a Hurricane Katrina rescue-as soon as we got married! Having a love for dogs evolved into a partnership with a local rescue in which I've volunteered for transport, adoption home visits, adoption follow up, and fostering. 3 dogs later-I enjoy walking the dogs around the farm, car rides(with drive thrus for pup treats of course!), and cuddling on the couch(our dogs know how to nap!). My friends know that my house is the "dog house" and that their dogs are welcome to come have fun and hang out too! I tend to be the "go to" friend when someone needs a pet sitter:) I specialize in special needs and geriatric care.
About: I have always been a go-to person when it comes to watching dogs. I have owned dogs and cats my whole life, taking care of them. I have trained all 4 of my dogs myself as well. I also have pet sit for friends and family! I have just graduated high school and currently working part time while also starting real estate. I have plenty of free time and mostly an open schedule for your convenience! My own animals have a full backyard they love to play in they love to have their indoor time as well playing with as many toys as they can! I constantly take my dogs on walks in the mornings and evenings to ensure they are getting all their needs met
About: I have experience, taking care of cats, dogs, and chickens. I am willing to take care of smaller animals, such as hamsters, birds or guinea pigs as well. During the summer, I am home most days of the week. I am a full time teacher so I am off during the summer. Therefore I am very reliable and flexible with times. I have a fenced in yard that’s big enough for dogs to get some exercise. I have an older beagle who is very docile. I have two kids who also enjoy seeing and meeting new animals.
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and my experience is mostly centered around dogs. At one point, I had five dogs of my own, but currently, I’m lucky to have two. While dogs are my main focus, I’ve also had the pleasure of caring for cats, horses, birds, reptiles, and smaller mammals like bunnies. No matter the pet, I treat each one with the same love and attention, ensuring they get the best care possible. You can trust that I’ll treat your furbabies as if they were my own! I work from home, so I’m usually available throughout the week and most weekends, making me super flexible for drop-ins and walks! While I can sometimes accommodate daytime requests, I generally prefer to schedule walks and visits after 4 p.m. once my workday is wrapped up. I’m happy to work with your pet’s schedule and provide them with the care and attention they deserve! When I take your dog on a walk or visit your pet, I treat them like they're my own. I make sure walks are fun and tailored to their energy level, whether it’s a relaxing stroll or a more energetic outing. I keep a close eye on them to ensure they’re comfortable and safe the entire time. During drop-ins, I’ll give them lots of love, playtime, and bathroom breaks, and make sure they have fresh water. I’ll keep you updated with tons of photos, so you can see how much fun they’re having and know they’re in good hands! Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
