Today was Kayla’s first time walking Maeve and I totally recommend her! She is super friendly & Maeve warmed up to her right away & didn’t want to leave Kayla even after their walk was over. Thank you, Kayla! ?

About: As a pre-vet student with hands-on experience from a dog hotel and lifetime of pet care, I offer more than just sitting. I'm skilled in senior care and puppy training basics, and my experience breeding crested geckos and caring for birds and cats gives me a deep understanding of diverse animal needs. I'm dedicated to providing informed, attentive care. Being a UMD student allows me to provide your dog with consistent, attentive walks throughout the day. I'm passionate about giving them the exercise and companionship they deserve, right here on campus. Whether in my home or yours, pet safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a clean and secure environment, free from hazards. I strictly adhere to all feeding and medication instructions, and I'm vigilant about monitoring pets for any signs of distress. When walking, I use a secure leash and harness, remain aware of surroundings, and avoid busy roads. I prioritize building trust with both pets and owners through clear communication, reliability, and genuine affection. I understand the importance of routine, and I strive to minimize stress by maintaining consistency. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing a loving and safe environment

Jake is conscientious, kind and obviously loves dogs. His detailed reports and photos kept me informed and I think the dogs really enjoyed his company. He’s a busy guy and I appreciate that he could fit us in this week! Will request him again in the future.

About: I provide calm, attentive, and reliable care tailored to each pet’s personality and routine. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including energetic puppies, senior dogs, and pets that need extra patience or reassurance. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, reinforcing training routines, and making sure pets get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. What sets me apart is my focus on consistency and communication. I keep owners updated with photos and messages, pay close attention to details, and make sure pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, quiet companionship, or structured routines, I adapt my care to match their needs and help reduce stress for both pets and owners. I am currently a junior at covenant college studying biology. I plan on applying to med school and becoming a doctor in a field where I can be an asset in medicine. I am currently a Vet Tech at Great Scottie Veterinary Clinic. I am a lover of animals and will do all that I can to provide the joy and satisfaction your pet needs! I take safety and trust seriously when caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. I always follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, and routines so pets feel comfortable and secure. I make sure pets are supervised, kept in safe areas, and never put in situations that could be unsafe. In my home, I keep a clean and calm environment where pets have fresh water, regular bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention. I always use leashes on walks and make sure dogs are secure when outside. In a client’s home, I respect their space and try to keep the pet’s routine the same as usual. I also provide updates and photos so owners know their pet is safe and happy. My goal is to make pets feel comfortable and cared for while giving owners peace of mind.

About: I've taken care of pets my entire life, I currently have 3 senior cats and 1 senior dog. I have 2 years of experience working in pet care facilities so I'm more than capable of handling all types of dogs and cats, including reactive/possessive dogs. I've been trained in cleaning, playing, monitoring play groups, feeding, and giving medication to all different sizes, breeds, and reactivity of dogs. I believe every pet deserve love and patience and I enjoy providing them with that. I also worked specifically with reactive/aggressive dogs for a year so feel free to reach out if you're dog needs a little more effort than most. :) I don't currently have a set schedule so feel free to reach out and we can figure out what works best for myself and your pets. I can walk, play with, feed, let out to potty, clean up after, and give meds to your wonderful pets depending on your needs. :)

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. My family has also fostered puppies for the past 5–6 years, which has given me experience with young dogs, routines, patience, and providing a safe, loving environment.

I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to accommodate a variety of schedules and care needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced yard and one friendly small dog who loves making new friends. Whether caring for your dog in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they feel loved, safe, active, and comfortable. I enjoy long walks, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention and care while you’re away.

About: I'm a very energetic person so I will always play with the pets and I'm always making sure they are well looked after. I have taken care of plenty of pets aging from young puppies and kittens to older. When taking care of cats I have plenty of toys and things for them to climb on. I have also taken care of pets that have special needs. Like diabetics and other things. I know how to give medications oral and in shot form. Special skills would be probably that I can keep up with any animal and I love all of them. They put a smile on my face. And I love seeing owners with the same smiles. It warms my heart every day. ? I'm usually free most of the day and love cuddles and walking with the pups and kitties. So scheduling will be easy and always available. I have a fenced in yard and a dog and cat that love others. We can play and go for walks. Also tons of activities to do.

Sarah has been a life saver. My wife and I just moved to Deale and were worried about finding someone to help walk our 7 year old Boston terrier during the day. Sarah came over the day we moved in for an introduction and started walking him the next day. She always sends photos and keeps us in the loop. 10/10 would recommend Sarah!
