“Heather did a great job taking care of my elderly cat while I was out of town and my family needed help with pilling her! We'll definitely be working with her again the next time we need a sitter! Thanks so much for your help!”
“My cat loves Steffen, and he brought over toys for him to try and keep which was very thoughtful. The apartment was very clean when I got back. He also went above and beyond with helping me with a perishable package that came while I was gone.”
“Paige has quickly become an important part of my plans any time that I travel. She is trustworthy, has an incredible attention to detail, and she genuinely loves animals.”
“Huge huge huge shout out to MacKenzie for watching my pups while I was out of town! I just moved up here and was a little worried about being away from the new place/state and leaving the dogs up here in the meantime. However, MacKenzie just seemed trustworthy, cool, and kind, and I was right! Not only did she want to make sure she did a good job and followed their schedules and everything to a T, she also just loved and cared about them instantly. What really sold MacKenzie as just being a rockstar was her willingness to work with my one dog who has major stranger danger and takes a bit to trust especially with females. MacKenzie did what she could and spent a lot of time focusing on his comfortability and building his trust with her while still ensuring my other dog got her attention and love as well. Throughout the visits, MacKenzie gave me numerous photos and videos as well as updates from all her visits. I am truly grateful to have had her help and her love and care for my animals while I was away. I will 100% be using MacKenzie from here on out for my animal’s care!”
“Did an outstanding job making sure my cats area was clean and tidy. Communication was great and made sure all was great for our cats. Will recommend to others and hope to use Matthew in the future when needed.”
“Awesome sitter!! Only booked her for 1 visit daily but when she saw my cat had puked during her first visit, she came back unprompted to check on my cat again later that day.”
About: Love to give dogs lots of attention and affection. Coupled with the ability to be stern if needed, I am able to take care of many types of dogs. I live an active life and will have no problem walking your dog as much as needed. I spent many years training and caring for our family dog. I have lived with roommates with dogs and had no issues caring for them even when the roommate was not away. While living with a roommate, they had their own rover account and I would help take care of any dog that would come over. I have pretty open availability and willing to travel to most places within 10-15 miles of downtown baltimore. Please reach out to me with any questions or requests and I will try to accommodate.
About: ❤️dogs! Had them since child, first one was Shepard mix, couple of pitbull terriers, my new buddy is a 2 yr old doberman named todoroki, we go on long walks all the time I currently work on the door dash app so my schedule is free during the day from about 7 am to about 4pm I usually deliver at night Lots of walks, I can take your puppy on the walk he desperately needs while your working never worry if your baby had an accident again
“We had a last minute need for care over February break, so not an easy time to find someone. In came Baela to the rescue! Her schedule lined up with our kitten’s normal feeding times, too, so that was a bonus! She spent time playing with our little high energy guy each visit, and followed our directions perfectly. Thank you, Baela!”
“Priya was AMAZING! She took excellent care of my two cats (one who requires medication multiple times a day). It was my first time leaving my cats alone for an extended period of time and I couldn’t have felt more at ease and comfortable with the care she provided. I will definitely book her again :)”
“This was our first time having Rico come by for a drop in visit for our fur babies Bella and Mya, we received lots of pictures and an update. We will definitely book with Rico again in the future!”
“Caroline was absolutely wonderful - she was detailed in her check-in updates and sent lots of photos. I had peace of mind while on vacation that my elderly cat was being cared for. Thank you so much, Caroline!”
About: In highschool I was very popular in my neighborhood from doing there dog nails, to dog sitting, over night stays, and even medications. Even back in high school I had a part time and school and still made sure the fur babies were taken care of. To this day I still dog sit for my neighbor. I also worked at a doggy daycare for about 6 months then i moved, I learned so much while I was there in that short period of time from learning to gain respect and how to control a group of 15+ dogs . And was in a animal science program in highschool with a mentorship at a clinic, then tried to go to college for my vet tech degree but too expensive(still paying that off). I also do have a very energetic German shepherd who I train every day she knows pretty much everything(sit, lay down, roll over,paw, other paw,high five, spin, heel, center, look, leave it, back up, and wait). I also dog sat for my boyfriend's coworker who had an older pointer who had a seziure not only did I comfort the dog but I called owner asap then vet, I then called off of work. Just because it's not my animal doesn't mean I will love them any less. But the take away from all that is I have a lot of experience in the animal department. I'm currently working part time and have a lot of free time on my hands and love being around animals . I only work wensday-saturday the other days I'm free. But as you can see with my profile I do have my own fur baby but my boyfriend never works nights or weekends so she won't be alone. For the pets at clients housing not only will I respond to you text asap even if I'm busy, I will also ask for guide lines and try to keep your dog on the schedule you have them on consistency is key, especially when a change like you leaving happens. I also am a big over thinker so before I let the dog out if you have a yard I will always make sure the gates are close and secure and make sure there's nothing laying out that would harm them. When I dog sit I imagine as if it's my own dog.
“anna is such a lovely human and an incredible communicator. she stopped by to feed our cat & dog and made sure our dog went to the bathroom. she followed all of the instructions left and sent photos and updates during her time with our girls! so grateful to have a trustworthy person come to take care of our girls! will definitely book anna again in the future :)”
“Gabriella is the best!! She took amazing care of my two cats when I was stuck out of town for a medical emergency. She took extra time for snuggles with them knowing that I’d been out of town for awhile and was great about cleaning and letting me know if there were any issues. I’ll definitely use her the next time I head out of town!”
“Daniel is really helpful and accommodating for my cat who generally dislikes most people. I’m grateful to know he’s checking in our her and making sure she gets her daily medication. Thanks, Daniel!!”
About: I've been a foster and pet sitter for mostly greyhounds for the past 20 years, and have always had dogs of my own. I've gone through obedience classes and grooming, and am pretty good with most temperaments. I am very available and flexible, since I'm retired. I can come by during the day, including weekends and holidays, whatever works for you and your pet. Please note that I accept in-home stays that are a minimum of two nights. I can come to your home and stay, or visit to let your dog out, walk, or feed. Safety is a big factor and I'll do my best!

Leslie took amazing care of two of my very stressed out cats right after I’d moved into a new apartment! I came back from retrieving my third cat to find two happy, well-cared-for kitties who are starting to adjust to their new surroundings. :) Thank you so much!!
HUGE thank you to MacKenzie for doing this one-off semi last-minute visit with my pups and her continued patience with my one dog who is a little more nervous and difficult. She is a blessing and I will always be grateful for her love and care she gives my pups while I am away.
My first time using a pet sitter to visit my cat daily and Paige made the whole experience super easy and convenient! She followed all instructions, provided detailed daily updates and sent lots of photos of my cat. I would definitely work with her again as the experience was so much easier than packing everything for my cat to board and he was much happier at home. Thanks Paige!
Emalee once again did a fantastic job caring for my cats while I was away. She last minute was willing to increase the frequency of her visits to help apply some eye ointment when one of the kitties needed it right before I was going away. She did such an amazing job with them and I never have to worry about them while she is caring for them.
Percy was well taken care of and we received daily pictures as well as notes which helped to calm my son down as he was quite anxious about leaving our cat for a week. Darian also fed our axolotl and sent pics on him too! Would absolutely reach out to Darian for future cat visits if the need arises!
We had a last minute need for care over February break, so not an easy time to find someone. In came Baela to the rescue! Her schedule lined up with our kitten’s normal feeding times, too, so that was a bonus! She spent time playing with our little high energy guy each visit, and followed our directions perfectly. Thank you, Baela!
Saoirse came for a meet and greet and a 1 hour drop-in ahead of a planned longer stay. She was fantastic with my dog right off the bat, and very thorough when we went over Isla’s needs. She is super communicative and sent great pics, even during such a short stay. Isla had a great time hanging out with Saoirse, and we can’t wait to have her again!
Emma listened to, understood, and executed all of the directions for my cat, 🐈⬛ Milo. More importantly, she brought her caring spirit to her daily check-ins for feedings, litter sifting, and love-petting. And I appreciated the photos of Milo and his sweet face. I highly recommend Emma.
Kate was absolutely fantastic. Our cat Millie got sick right before we were leaving for vacation, and Kate jumped right in on short notice. She went above and beyond, giving daily pills and other meds based on how Millie was doing. She was always responsive and kept us updated. We will absolutely use Kate again and highly recommend her!
