Dog Sitting in Germantown

“Catherine was wonderful! I hired her for drop-in visits for my 4 cats, including a diabetic cat who she gave insulin. She was very kind, sweet with the kitties, and even took the bags of litter out to the trash even though I told her she didn’t need to do that (it’s a bit of a walk to the dumpster.) I’m very happy I hired her for my trip :)”

About: Since I was born, my parents and my family have owned pets. From my birth my siblings have owned their own birds, we owned a Dove for multiple years and owned a Black Labrador from birth.

I have no pets at this time so your pet can be comfortable and roam around freely. I can feed, play with and give lots of attention.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all kinds for years and have three of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets.

“We are so grateful for Sondra’s care of our pup! She came over for a drop in visit on a day that we were going to be gone for a long day trip and took care of everything as discussed. I really appreciated the photos and updates she sent after the visit! She communicated everything very clearly before and after the visit and made the whole process so easy. Thank you Sondra! Willow can’t wait to see you again soon :)”

About: I’ve cared for my own fur babies for the past 15 years—from playful puppy days to their sweet golden years—and I’ve loved every stage. Now that I’m recently retired, I spend lots of time with my two pups, Piney and Blossom, but I still have plenty of love, energy, and attention to share. I enjoy being outdoors, walking, and staying active, and I’d be thrilled to share that with your four‑legged family member. I have hands-on experience with puppy training as well as providing extra support and gentle care for senior dogs. All of our dogs joined our family as puppies, and several required daily medication. Our oldest, Pogo, had heart issues as a pup, and I cared for her throughout her life—managing her medication and making sure she had every comfort she needed as she aged. I truly believe animals give unconditional love and are the best mood boosters at the end of a long day. I’d be honored to share that same love and care with your furry family member. I’m retired, up early every day, and stay active by walking and playing with my two dogs. I’m looking to share that same energy, attention, and love with additional pups who would enjoy extra companionship and outdoor time. My yard is fully fenced, and I always clean up right away after potty breaks to keep the space safe and tidy. At home, I keep fresh water available on both floors so my pups can stay hydrated wherever they choose to relax. For senior dogs or those who need a little extra help, I have a ramp and dog steps so they can comfortably get onto the couch or bed and feel right at home. I will provide the same services and dedication to your home and dog(s)

“Pilar is awesome! She is great at communicating and left a very detailed report of her time with our puppy after each visit. She is also great at being patient with our puppy. We are definitely hoping to book with Pilar again!”

“Christy was so easy to work with! She took the time to understand my dogs, their habits and their needs. She accommodated my special requests without a second thought. Having her taking care of my fur babies gave me such peace of mind!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since college and have raised my own kittens and puppies into adulthood. I volunteered for two years at BARCS Animal Shelter in Baltimore, where I worked as a dog walker for dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments. Through that experience, I learned how to read pet body language, handle shy or anxious pets, and provide calm, consistent care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I have my own vehicle and can provide transportation in the event of any emergencies. I work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. Because of this, I can accommodate regular walks, drop-ins, playtime, and overnight care without long periods of pets being left alone. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and provide plenty of updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I prioritize safety, trust, and communication in every booking. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, and household routines. In clients’ homes, I’m respectful of their space and ensure pets are secure at all times. I keep doors and gates locked, supervise pets during walks and playtime, and provide regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Your trust in my services is important to me, and I will always ensure I do everything in my power to keep that.

“Jazlyn is very helpful and is great with our puppy! She is also great at communicating/responding to messages and is always on time. We love having her look after Rhubarb!”

About: I currently work at a dog daycare where I help care for dogs of different sizes and personalities throughout the day. My responsibilities include feeding, supervising playtime, cleaning, and making sure each dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I also have experience volunteering with dog adoptions and assisting at an animal hospital, where I was able to learn more about handling and caring for animals in a medical and shelter environment. I’ve been around animals my whole life, especially my own dog, which has helped me understand how to be patient, gentle, and attentive to their needs. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine because I already work with dogs regularly at a daycare. I’m used to early mornings, consistent routines, and staying flexible with different schedules. I also have time in the afternoons, evenings, and some weekends to dedicate fully to pet care, walks, and check-ins. I always prioritize safety, trust, and comfort when caring for pets. I closely follow each pet’s routine and any instructions provided by the owner. In my home or the client’s home, I make sure the environment is clean, calm, and secure. I supervise pets at all times, give them lots of attention, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient and gentle, and I treat every pet like they’re my own.

“Jennifer did an amazing job taking care of my cats this weekend. My cats tend to have accidents outside the litter box and occasionally vomit. But she did an amazing job letting me know if they did that and that she cleaned it up when they did. She also sent lots of pictures! I would highly recommend her! 😊”

She was kind, reliable, and I really appreciated the daily updates she provided. I definitely recommend booking with her if you're looking for someone to care for your pets!”
