“Shakya took wonderful care of my pit bull for 9 days. It can often be stressful leaving our pup for such a long stretch of time but we could immediately tell that Shakya was such a dog lover and we felt very comfortable. Shakya was very communicative, sending daily updates and photos. Our dog was in amazing hands!!! We were so happy with the care Romy was given and will definitely be calling Shakya again to care for her. 10/10!!”


“Dawn was great with our fur baby boy! We picked up a happy boy from staying with Dawn for 6 days. I highly recommend Dawn for boarding any dog! We will refer and use her services again!”


“Alicia is great! She has a very nice yard for the pups to enjoy, a very sweet little boy, and she is super easy to work with, is very accommodating, and just an overall nice, cool person. My boy, Spike, was clearly very comfortable right away and looked very happy in all the pics she sent. I was very lucky to find her so quickly as I just moved to the area and needed a place for Spike quickly as I had a vacation planned days after my move. She helped make a very stressful time easier on my nerves. Will definitely go to Alicia first next time I need care for my dog.”



“Daniel did a wonderful job with Apollo. He was taken on many walks and allowed to take over the couch. Daniel is caring and responsible with a true affection for doggos. I'd definitely trust him with Apollo again.”


About: Dog sitting is something I truly excel at—I’m attentive, responsible, and genuinely love spending time with dogs. I make sure each pup feels safe, comfortable, and cared for, whether that means sticking to their feeding routine, going on long, playful walks, or just being there for some quality cuddle time. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs, quickly noticing if something seems off. I treat every dog like they're part of the family, and pet parents can relax knowing their furry friend is in great hands with me. I currently work part-time caregiver for my mom and father. I have a flexible work schedule so I can do all hours . I believe the more rime u can spend with a animal the more you conny just like a caregiver. I ahve a cat that is friendly and free to go as he pleases. i have toys and a nice yard to play in although will still have to be a leash. And as for your home i will keep the most responsible respectful i can be in your home and to your pet.


“This was first time I left my pup with a Rover sitter; my experience could not have been better. Denise and her beautiful family took great care of her and sent me updates and photos to reassure me that all was well. I swear GracieBell was smiling in everyone!”


“Maggie was in excellent hands with Jodi. I received daily updates and pics. Communication with Jodi was clear and immediate. She was also very friendly and personable. I would definitely utilize Jodi's services again in the future.”


About: With over 4 years of experience as a professional dog trainer and pet care provider, I bring a calm, confident, and caring energy to every dog I meet. Whether your pup needs overnight boarding, walks, or some extra playtime, I treat every dog like my own—with love, patience, and lots of belly rubs! I specialize in understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. From high-energy pups to shy seniors, your dog’s comfort and safety are always my priority. I also offer updates with photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Let’s give your pup a fun, safe, and loving stay. I can’t wait to meet your best friend! 🐶❤️ It is my full time job so the dogs get my attention throughout the day and evening if they board over night with me I like to include them in my everyday life as much as possible. When unsupervised I keep the dogs in a ruffland crate for safety of your dog and the other dogs I have at the time. I live right by the river and love to take the dogs there to play in the water and the beach! I also have a gps collar that I put on every dog when I take them outside of my house for safety.

“I needed a last minute sitter while going to some family events on the shore. I reached out to Jessi and he was quick to respond and take Leo for the weekend. I added pickup and delivery which was very helpful.. He made sure Leo was comfortable and if there were any questions, he reached out to make sure Leo stayed close to his daily schedule. There were constant videos and pictures of Leo which made me feel more relaxed that Leo was in good hands. Also very reasonable prices for this area. If you are on the Eastern Shore or heading to the local beaches, I would recommend Jessi.”

About: I have always loved animals from a young age. I was always the one responsible for feeding and taking care of our animals, and house/dog sat for friends and family when needed. I work from home, so am able to easily incorporate pet care into my daily schedule. Whether your fur baby is staying with me or I need to pop in and out for visits and walks, I am able to do that with ease. I let my pup in the yard and walk around our neighborhood on a leash. She is a very playful chihuahua yorkie mix that loves new friends! She will have your pups forgetting all about you while they stay with us. I am also happy to provide as many pictures as you want and/or video chat so you can check on your babies.
