“Ivah did a great job. He was patient with a dog that although nice is initially worrisome of strangers. He kept us informed, was respectful of our home and we would definitely recommend him and use him again. Great Job!!!”

“Came home to happy, well taken care of babies and it’s all I could ask for. There was a mild snag while we were gone and we figured it out together. Wouldn’t ask anyone else to watch my 3 animals (and house).”

“Preaundrea has watched Sammy a couple of times now and has done a great job. She is very attentive, making sure she checks with me if she notices something out of the ordinary like his allergies. She is a good communicator and makes sure to send updates and photos. I am happy to know Sammy is well taken care of when I am away.”

“Naya is a repeat house sitter for my big silly pit mix and my elderly cat. She does an incredible job of following all instructions and balancing the needs of my dog and senior cat. We trust Naya!”

“Kathleen took great care of our senior cat and our home. She navigated some technical challenges with our alarm system with professionalism and good humor. Highly recommend. Will definitely re-book.”

“Elizabeth was terrific--totally reliable, excellent communicator, left house in great shape, and our dog seemed very happy when we got home. Highly recommended!”

“When my other Rover cancelled on me last minute Julion happily stepped in and did an absolutely fantastic job watching my dog while I was away. Cannot say enough good things about his service and professionalism. From the pet care, daily updates, pictures, I would use him over and over and will recommend him to any and all.”

“Our animals were all so happy when we returned. After an unexpected vet visit the day before we left and additional meds and care, Shania didn’t miss a bit. She texted to confirm instructions and for guidance to be sure she got things right. We will definitely have her stay with our group again!”

“Cashae was just great with my dog Buddha. She is patient and aims to do her best all the time. There was so much happening with my older dog during the time she was scheduled to watch him and he remained flexible and communicated. She asked questions and was willing to learn, and worked with me while i was away to find solutions. i can’t thank her enough for her service! she will most definitely be utilized in the future.”

About: I specialize in caring for large breeds, leveraging years of experience raising and training Rottweilers. I understand the unique needs of big dogs, from maintaining consistent training to managing their energy levels. Note: I have my own crated pets who will be present. Pet care is part of my everyday life. I work from home so I have a lot of flexibility! My own Rottweilers are on a consistent schedule, so it’s natural for me to fold guest pets right into that routine. Each day includes morning walks, feeding, supervised play, and crate rotations for safety, along with plenty of affection and downtime. I make safety, trust, and comfort the focus of every stay. In my home, pets enjoy a secure, spacious environment with constant supervision, plenty of enrichment, and clean, cozy areas for rest and play. Whether calm and quiet or high energy and active, your pet will be safe and secure with me!
“Sierra did a great job dogsitting my senior dog and housesitting while I was out of town for a long weekend! She sent updates and pictures, which was very reassuring!”
“Victoria is the very best pet sitter we’ve ever had. Our animals love her more than they love us. She is great with communicating and goes above and beyond. We just love her.”

“Asia was very communicative and flexible with my schedule, and she did a wonderful job caring for my dogs. They had a lot of cuddles, walks, and photos taken throughout the visit. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

“Jayla was patient and loving to our dog who for the first day and a half was acting very weird and hiding out in one of the bedrooms. Jayla was very communicative and her concern showed through her texts. Turns out it was the fire alarm beeping because the batteries were dying. Our dog was very happy once the batteries were removed!! Jayla stayed overnight and maintained a spotless house for when we returned. She was respectful and loving toward our pet.”
“Keira was great with our old pup Toby while we were out of town. She was knowledgeable about care and Toby was in great hands. She gave updates and photos throughout the stay.”


About: I grew up on a small farm in the Maryland agricultural reserve and have experience caring for animals big and small, from dogs and cats to sheep and emus! You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and treat your pet like they’re my own. I’m grateful that my work schedule as an environmental scientist is flexible and remote. It’s easy for me to prioritize pet care to fit within your schedule. While caring for your pet, I promise to treat your home as well as your fur baby with care and respect. I love being outdoors and am happy to take your pet for lengthy walks whether or not you have a fenced in yard.
“Sean is a wonderful pet sitter. Not only did he take such great care of our two dogs, he also looked after our geckos and fish without complaint. Sean left our house spotless! He is a great communicator and sent daily pictures and updates. It is evident that Sean truly cares for animals, and I won't hesitate to ask Sean to watch our pets again in the future!”

“Brittney was wonderful with our pets and home! Everyone was happy and healthy when we returned. She kept in touch and we were very comfortable having her stay with our pets. We will definitely be back to rebook for long stays! Thank you!”

Micah did a wonderful job house sitting and caring for our cats, dog, and bird while we were away for a week! She actively communicated with us, sent great photos of all of our pets, spent lots of quality time with our pets, and paid thoughtful and careful attention to fluctuations in our pets’ appetites and activity levels and made adjustments to their routines as needed. She also did a great job handling daily oral medications for our dog and one of our cats. Our pets all seemed so content when we got home, which I do not take for granted—it’s proof they felt very well cared for by Micah! We highly recommend her!

Trust them completely with our pups and our home. We have a two dog home that includes a senior dog who has mobility issues and medication needs. They’ve never had more exceptional care and are always happy and content when we arrive back home. Same goes for the house. House is clean and always well taken care of. My wife and I even came home to all our mail collected and our recycling put to the curb ❤️

From the moment she came to visit to the day she left our house, Cashae was communicative, professional, and extremely pleasant. She was so easy to work with. Our dog loved her. And she left her house in perfect condition. We would rebook with her in a heartbeat.

Emily was amazing, my boys loved her, and I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. She was professional and very communicative, the daily photos helped so much. Even when encountering some unexpected issues (on my end) and with Atticus boycotting his meds, she handled them with grace and went above and beyond. I could not recommend Emily enough!

Johnita was amazing! This was the first time I'd left my cat with a sitter for longer than a few days, and I was nervous, but Johnita gave Lucy lots of love and played with her and sent me daily updates with pictures. She took such fantastic care of Lucy I thought she might not be as happy to see me! I highly recommend Johnita - she's reliable, warm, responsible, and caring; everything you want in the person who will care for your beloved pet!

We are so thankful we found Talayia to watch our two dogs and cat for overnight stays! She really came through for us at the last minute when we were in a tough spot of our last sitter cancelling. She communicated with us daily and sent us picture updates which put us at ease for the two weeks we were gone. She also kept our plants alive and our house was kept clean. Thank you so much for everything!!

Michelle stayed at my house and cared for my 2 senior dogs and 2 cats for a week. She was wonderful. She gave my pets their food and medicines daily, took the dogs for walks on schedule and was respectful to my home. I highly recommend her and will definitely hire her again in the future.
