Adrienne is thoughtful and caring and very very good at communicating. This is my 3rd time leaving my dog (a somewhat demanding pug) in her care. It will certainly not be our last.

Kacy and Justin did another fantastic job looking after our little buddy Bear while we were taking a much needed vacation. It's such a comfort to know that he's receiving such loving care when we're not able to , and they always send such adorable pictures! Highly recommended sitters!

Connie is a wonderful pet sitter. Both of my dogs really love her so much. They have known her for a few years, except that my younger dog first met her when she was six months old. She communicates with me about my dogs if she has a question or concern. I highly recommend you use her service for your dog and/or cat.

About: Hi! I'm Michelle and I am a music teacher of 30 years! I have extensive experience with French Bulldogs, elderly dogs and medication management. I recently rescued a 12 year old Frenchie who was severely neglected and had many health issues. She was not expected to live more than 6 months but we had her for 3 wonderful years by maintaining a holistic lifestyle along with medication for seizures. I am very comfortable giving meds and taking special care of your elderly pups. I adore animals and will treat your dogs as my own! There is nothing more special than the love of our fur babies! I am a teacher and after 30 years in the classroom, I recently started working for a Virtual Academy. I still teach every day, but my schedule is incredibly flexible and I am available for last minute drop ins! I am also off in the summer so my schedule is even more flexible. I am happy to do drop in's at your home! I'm happy to do short walks, long walks, playtime, feeding, snacks, medication. And lots of snuggles! Anything you need!

About: 🐾 About Me Hi there! I’m Kiara — a lifelong animal lover with over 14 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. From tiny, timid pups to big, energetic adventurers, I’ve learned that every dog has their own unique way of showing love — and I adore getting to know each one. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets through professional services, friends, and families, providing everything from daily walks and cuddle time to medication administration and overnight stays. My priority is always to make your pets feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. 🐶 What You Can Expect • Reliable, communicative, and attentive care • Plenty of photo updates so you can relax while you’re away • A calm, loving environment with playtime, snuggles, and routine care • Experience with senior dogs and pets who need medication Whether your pup loves a long walk, a cozy nap, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to give them the same love and attention I’d want for my own fur babies. Can’t wait to meet your four-legged family member! 💕 I’m currently focusing on school, because of that I have a very flexible schedule which gives me a bit of extra time to take care of your pets weather is at your home or overnight at mines. I always ask the pet owners what is their daily routine with their fur babies and I will of course continue on with that same daily routine in my own home. I have a small dog and cat who love to cuddle and play! Your fur babies won’t be bored one bit!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I have grown up with dogs, and love all dogs. Neighbors and family members have relied on me to take care of their dogs. This includes feeding, exercising, medication and play time! I am experienced with handling puppies and with senior dogs as well. I currently don’t have any other commitments, so I have plenty of time to play and take care of your doggies! I’m available Sunday through Saturday all day and or night. I will follow set instructions if you have any in regards to being in your home. Otherwise, I will care for your beloved puppy like they are my own and use my judgment.

Maureen was impeccable, as always. She walked Bruiser, fed her according to my painfully detailed instructions, and gave her eye drops and pill medication. I was out of town for a week and needed Maureen to help out - when I came home it was like my dog didn't even notice I had left because Maureen made her feel so at home and cared for.

About: I’ve always had pets in my house growing up. I’ve fostered kittens and volunteered at local animal shelters. I have experienced bottle feedings, house breaking, and senior dogs and handle them all with ease and love. I am currently running my family business and spend most of my weekdays day at home. This allows my weekdays to have flexibility and availability to pet parents who work during the day. My home is located in downtown Frederick and I also have a fenced in backyard. I can easily get to many areas of Frederick quickly and with ease. My pets at home are friendly and welcome guests! We have fostered cats and often have other dogs visit.

Kristen walked our black lab every day for two weeks while we were on vacation and he absolutely loved her. It was such a relief to know he was well cared for. Kristen sent detailed updates about their walks, which were super helpful, and she was very patient and caring with our dog. We will definitely hire her again.

Connie was the best!! I just got my pup from a shelter and he was a big boy with lots of energy and very little training. Connie took the time address issues he was struggling with in training and still make sure he was getting the exercise he needed. You can tell how much love she has for the dogs she works with. I definitely will be booking with Connie in the future.
