House Sitting Forestville

About: I've owned senior dogs through end-of-life care, including daily medication and mobility support, and understand the patience senior dogs need to feel safe. I also enjoy active playtime with younger, playful dogs. I'm comfortable with house-trained routines across a variety of breeds and sizes. I work remotely Monday through Friday running my own business, which gives me the flexibility to accommodate your schedule and your pet’s needs. As long as I have Wi-Fi, I can work from your home, allowing me to be present throughout the day. I provide potty breaks every 2–4 hours and can adjust the timing to fit your pet’s feeding, medication, or daily routine. I take safety seriously in your home - checking fencing, gates, and potential escape routes, and staying alert to pets who are talented at getting into things or slipping out unnoticed. I've cared for a mischievous, escape-prone dog myself, so I don't underestimate what a determined pet can get into. I follow your instructions on whether a pet can be left alone and for how long, along with feeding, medication, and any other safety concerns. Your home stays secure while you're away, and your pet stays in a familiar, low-stress environment with consistent care.

“Talayia is the best! We have her pet sit our dog and cat all the time and they just love her. She sends us daily updates and pictures so we can have stress free vacations. Highly recommend!”

About: Since growing up at a young age, I’ve always had a pet by my side and now that I love daily unconditionally. If there is one thing I can teach them is to get along with others animals as well as people. My patience and understanding will keep them thriving and healthy. I only want to give them more than they need. I am available 5 days of the week to care for your pet, including the weekend if needed! After all, someone has to be there for them. No pet under my supervision has ever been in harms way. I have a big cage with food and water. Pet toys, cleaning supplies, and pet proof items to keep them safe.

“Sanai was an absolute delight! She is incredibly respectful, clean, and kind, and took exceptional care of our three-month-old puppy, Obi. My husband and I highly recommend her and fully trust her to care for our fur baby in the future.”

About: Hi! I have been a pet parent for most of my life. I enjoy helping others in my community feel safe and less stressed with leaving their loved ones with someone! I can adjust to your needs and make things easy as possible. I usually respond very quickly and I am open to short notices as well! I am currently building an app and finishing up my Masters degree. I am looking for something to earn income while I finish strong on these projects. I have 3 rooms, I have doggy parks, normal parks, and various pet stores near me and vets for emergencies. I have an experienced pet owner besides myself available as well. I clean every two days in general and I clean my cats litter 1-2 times a day depending as well.

“Ada was amazing!! This was my first time using the App and she made me feel so comfortable. She agreed to a meet and greet prior to my house sitting dates and my dogs loved her instantly. She was very communicative and kept me informed on everything. As this was my first time leaving my babies with anyone outside of family, we were all a bit nervous and hoping this was a good match. My mom even checked in with Ada and she was totally cool with. My mom and dog both have dogs and we are pretty certain Ada has 3 new clients. Ada maintained my home wonderfully. She really was patient with and understanding and I would recommend her 10/10, especially for new clients.”

“I was super nervous about leaving my dog with someone for a week. This was the first time for both of us. Abby was incredible from start to finish , super professional, prompt responses, lots of photos and videos. She stayed at my place full-time and to be honest with you when I got back. It was more clean than when I left it. Lol. If you’re looking for someone, who’s gonna love your dog and look after them like you would she’s definitely the person to book.”

About: Hi! I’m Tamara, and I’ve been an animal lover my whole life 🐾 I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets—their personalities, their quirks, and just making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I offer pet sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, and I always try to tailor care to each pet’s needs. Whether that’s long walks, playtime, sticking to a specific routine, or just keeping them company and giving lots of attention, I’m happy to adjust. I know how important it is for pets to feel comfortable in their own environment, so I focus on keeping things calm, consistent, and stress-free. I’ve had experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, temperaments, and needs, and I’m very attentive to details like feeding routines, medications (if needed), and behavior changes. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, and I work in a way that allows me to spend quality time with the pets I care for. I’m reliable, responsive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family member 💛 I’m currently y working part-time so have plenty of time to take care of your babies. I have plenty of dog and cat toys to play with, grooming stuff etc. I have a partially fences yard and a medium size dog and 3 cats to keep your babies company. If I come to your house, I make sure I follow your instructions closely

“Kriss was AMAZING with our two pitties! One of our dogs had a rough start so he can be a bit fearful of new people, but within an hour of her stay with the dogs, Kriss sent us a photo of that dog lying across her lap. She is responsible, kind, and kept us updated throughout her visit. We are looking forward to working with her many times in the future :)”

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 currently am working at a dog daycare in Bowie, Maryland and working through Rover with your fur babies helped me obtain this job and I’m 1 step closer to making this my career and I would be extremely excited to continue caring for your furry loved ones! I currently work at a doggy daycare and if vaccinated I can even take your fur baby along with me during the day to work for no extra cost! I have a 2 hour break and can provide a mid day walk and play time and there’s a 2 hour nap time for the dogs at daycare. I have a fenced in yard and an extra large steel dog cage in the house in case your pet needs to be caged. I only take care my dog at home when I don’t bring her to daycare with me she eats and gets walked at around the same time every day and goes outside to play with toys or just to run around the yard a lot throughout the day.

“Taylor was fabulous! She watched our two dogs at our house for a week and took excellent care of them. She communicated well and left the house in pristine condition. Overall, a wonderful experience!”

About: I have sharpened my abilities in dog care and customer service, ensuring that the pets under my supervision receive the highest level of care and attention. My commitment to safety rules and adaptability allows me to handle various situations with ease, whether walking multiple dogs or catering to the unique needs of each pet. I possess a strong set of skills including cleaning, dog care, customer service, communication, time management, and problem solving. My strengths such as adaptability, responsibility, attention to detail, patience, reliability, and work ethic further enhance my ability to excel in this role. I have hands on experience working in professional dog daycare environments, including at Dogtopia and The Board Hound. In these roles, I cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments in a structured group setting. My responsibilities included supervising playgroups, ensuring safety and positive behavior, feeding and basic care routines, and maintaining a clean, controlled environment. This experience helped me develop strong skills in dog behavior management, calm handling in high energy situations, and building trust with both pets and their owners. Currently Monday-Friday my availability is open. Have time in the morning, lots of time in the afternoon, I can also do overnight if its needed. I like to work with my clients to get an understanding of their pet's daily routine, including feeding times, exercise needs, medications, and special requirements.

“Jenny was a lifesaver, when at the last minute before a big family reunion in Washington DC we needed to find someone willing to hang out with our dog in our hotel room. Max had been diagnosed with kennel cough, and couldn't be around any other dogs. We were so very fortunate that Jenny was available and able to spend two days hanging out with Max. He's a terrier, so not always quick to warm up to people, but he really enjoyed being with Jenny. So much so, that he did do a little whining when she left!”

“Mark watched our two dogs for a week and was fantastic. We have great communication and daily pictures of the dogs. Mark also treated our home with respect and was completely professional.”

“Keisha saved our Christmas plans! When our sitter canceled last minute, it was such a relief when Keisha was so willing to do a same-day meet and greet, and stay with my elderly dog for the week of Christmas. She was responsive the whole time, and we returned to a happy dog and clean house. She even treated Marley to a Christmas present, which was so sweet!”

Amy S.

“Emerald helped us out in a big way when another pet sitter we had needed to drop because of a family emergency two days before our trip. We were able to get ahold of Emerald and get everything squared away to pet site for us the day before we left. She took amazing care of our pets and house.”

“Used Tobias while we went away on vacation. He was great with Bailey and Kali. He listened to our care instructions and attended to their needs perfectly. He is extremely easy going and communicative. Loved getting pics everyday to see how our dogs were doing. Def will rebook and recommend him to anyone”

“As always, Aristose went above and beyond to take good care of our two German shepherds. She is always communicative and loves our dogs very well!”
