About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I can remember. From house sitting, to walking them, to even taking care of my own dog. I’ve worked with different breeds and ages, and I love them all! I stay at home mostly throughout the week, and I’ve been wanting to get out a couple of times, and this would be the perfect opportunity to take care of your dogs in walking, or dropping by to play! I live in an apartment complex, so I would have to go to where you are to walk/play with your dog, or I could take them to a dog park!

Antoinette provided drop in visit for our elderly (13 yrs) dog and was really great! She was a great communicator (kept us up to date and shared pics) and we got back to a happy and content dog. We hope we can have her sit for us again in the future!

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have personally owned for 6+ years. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes- I personally have a 4 y/o German shepherd. I also have experience working with dogs in a professional, grooming setting. I am currently available on Friday evenings and through the weekend. If notified ahead of time, I can be available during the week if need be! My dog comes first in my household so I always ensure clients pets do too! Whether it be going for walks, making sure food and clean water is always available, entertaining and keeping pups mentally stimulated I ensure they are taken care of.

She is very kind and caring. she brought a lot of positive energy to my dog and my cat and insured that they used the bathroom they ate their food, drank water and have play time.

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and have worked at a doggy day camp where I got to care for and play with all different sizes and breeds of dogs and I love every single one of them! I have experience with giving medication orally as well as ear drops and medicated pads do the pups who have those adorable wrinkly faces <3 I currently work a full time job but I am available usually any time after 4pm and weekends. I am able to travel a little longer distance and have no issues with that. I prefer to care for pets in their own home as that’s where they feel comfortable. I treat all pets as if they were my own and give them all the loves!

Nicole took such good care of our kitties. She was prompt, kind, and professional at our initial meetup and followed directions well. She contacted us with appropriate questions while we were away (which is what we requested) and our kitties felt comfortable with Nicole right away. Her kindness and genuine interest in cats is evident and we would recommend her to others for their kitty-sitting needs. (Note: we hired Nicole to drop-in 1x/day for almost two weeks. She monitored their food dispenser, changed/filled their water fountain, managed 3 litter boxes, fed our fish, and played with our 2 young cats).

About: I’ve loved pets my whole life! I’ve been a dog owner for 10 years, caring for all their daily needs, and I’ve also volunteered at the Montgomery County Animal Shelter for three years, looking after and playing with cats and dogs of all ages. I provide feeding, walking, playtime, and even basic training. Every pet in my care is treated like part of the family, they’ll get lots of cuddles, belly rubs, games, and love. I make sure they feel happy, safe, and spoiled while I’m with them. Your furry friend will leave wagging, purring, and totally content! I’m currently home from school, which allows me to be very flexible and available most days and times. This means I can easily accommodate walks, drop-ins, and extended care as needed. I provide care at your home, following your pet’s routine to keep them happy and comfortable. This includes feeding, walking, playtime, cuddles, and any special instructions you have. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I currently own two cats and a dog! I have owned cats for the last 8 years as well as a dog for 4 years. I currently work in veterinary medicine and have for the last 7 years, so I do have that vetmed knowledge and can recognize signs and symptoms of some issues should they arise. I currently work part time and do have that extra time to spend to help care for your pet. I can easily drop in to check on your pet if needed. My pets are basically my children and I would provide the same level of care, love and respect towards your pet as I do my own.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was in high school, and I would love to check in on your pets for a mid-day break, or when you’re away on vacation! My work from home schedule allows me the flexibility to swing by throughout the day. My weekends are primarily spent at home, so I’m available most weekends, too. I treat any clients home with care. I do my best to maintain the same routine for the pet as they would normally have with their parent.

About: I have been caring for dogs for 5 years and truly believe that pets are angels who deserve to be treated with kindness and care. I have two small dogs of my own – a Maltese and a Chihuahua – who are both very playful and love having visitors. I have open availability and can walk your pet three times a day. I’ll also send you a photo or video to keep you updated on how your pet is doing. I care for pets both in my home with the same level of attention, kindness, and respect. In my home, my two small dogs are kept in a safe and comfortable environment, with plenty of playtime and relaxation. I follow each pet's routine closely, ensuring they feel secure and loved. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, given their daily walks, and have plenty of time for play and rest.

Hope was a tremendous help with my three dogs. She made a visit ahead of time to visit and meet the dogs and learn about their needs and care before the booking. All three of my dogs are at different stages of life and have independent needs; Hope ensured they were each cared for accordingly during her visit to our home. I came home to very happy, well-cared for pups. She was very communicative and kept me informed of timing and any questions and even brought my package into the house, which was much appreciated. We will definitely reach out to Hope next time we need care for our dogs. Thank you, Hope!

Jade was AMAZING! My wife and I took a much needed week of vacation and wanted to make sure our pup was well cared for. She was walked, fed and loved well while we were away. I can't recommend Jade high enough - she not only was always on point, on time and aware of little details but also kind and caring to Daisy. Thank you, Jade - we really appreciate your attention and great care! Will definitely have her watch again when we go away.
