House Sitting in Heath

“Kaelin was wonderful with our 3 special needs cats. She sent me updates every day, bonded with our skittish girl, and left the house in good order! We will absolutely be keeping her in mind for future trips!”

“We love having Tessa watch our dog. She always takes great care of him. This is the second time she’s watched Zuko and always does an amazing job with him.”

“Elizabeth was amazing. It's not easy going away worry-free on vacation, but she nailed it. I didn't leave her with any instructions and she handled everything flawlessly. Even exceeded expectations. Cannot recommend enough!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets—especially when they needed someone gentle and dependable. I’m a Special Education teacher so I tend to be naturally nurturing, very attentive, and I treat every animal like part of my family. I have experience with everything ranging from senior dogs to young high-energy breeds — I have both a crazy Golden Retriever and a laidback senior yellow Lab. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, or just someone who understands their routine—I’ve got it covered :) I’m a Special Education teacher currently off for summer break, and I’m looking to fill my time doing something I love—caring for animals! I’m reliable, attentive, and have a VERY flexible schedule right now to accommodate walks, drop-ins, or pet sitting. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine very closely—mealtimes, walks, play, and meds if needed. I respect your space, keep things tidy, and make sure your pet feels calm, safe, and loved while you’re away. Your peace of mind is my priority!

About: I'm a recently retired law enforcement officer who loves dogs of all kinds. My wife and I moved out to Baltimore to give our pets a lot more space, and we all love it here! I've cared for my dogs, my friends' dogs, and dogs from work (the bomb seeking waggy-tailed dogs, not apprehension dogs) for decades. I provide the highest level of trustworthiness and attention to detail in all the services I provide. I'm happy to hear what you want out of your visits and provide exactly that! My experience in training both home dogs and work dogs has provided me with a great deal of knowledge and love for dogs of all sizes. Because I'm retired, I have a great deal of flexibility in my schedule, and because I'm still young and healthy and my own dogs are high energy pooches, I'm excited to meet your dog and give them just the amount of care and exercise they need. I've raised and cared for many different types of dogs and met many types of dog owners, and the main focus I bring to pet care is customization. Each dog needs different things, some just need to be let out out and pet a little bit, others need to burn a LOT of energy. Some owners like 10 pictures of your visits and hear about every potty, and others just want to rest assured their pet and their home will be exactly like they left it. My wife and I give our dogs a crazy amount of love and attention. We fenced in several acres for them, let them in the pool, have birthday parties for them, and take them everywhere we can! That's the type of care and attention I'll bring to your pet as well.

About: I have been around animals my whole life. I find joy training puppies and older dogs (if they'll allow me to of course). I enjoy being outside more than inside and being able to see the doggos smile just for being outside. I'm a flexible mom of 2 whom both play sports, travel and for their school. I adjust my time around my families schedule which gives me a lot of flexibility during school hours and most evenings. I will care for your animals as if they were my own. As a mother, nurturing is something I love to give to those who cannot speak for themselves. I believe all animals play a very important role in all families whether it be service animals, friendship, to travel buddies.

About: I’ve had pets since I can remember. I’ve had Guinea pigs. Cats, dogs and fish. I’ve personally taken care of horses, dogs, cats, guinea pigs and fish. I take the time to understand each pets individual personality, routine and their needs to to make sure they are comfortable and safe while you are gone. Whether it's adminstering medication, a special diet Or extra love and patience for the anxious pets. I also prioritize communication, keeping you updated with messages, and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. With reliability, experience and a commitment to quality care. I offer peace of mind. Requested Information about your pet: Please provide the following about your furbaby: Pet info: Name, breed, age, weight and gender Heath & medical needs: any medical conditions/dietary restrictions Daily Routines: feeding schedule/potty habits/sleep arrangements and exercise preferences Behavior/Temperment: Socialization with other pets/people, anxiety triggers, aggression triggers and comfort items Additional care info: grooming needs, preferred walking routes, house rules Emergency Contacts: Backup caregiver/emergency vet I work from home full-time so I am available for your furbabies to go in/out as much as needed. I am able to walk them during the day or run wild in the backyard (I watch them). I have a fenced yard & a medium size and small dog currently. They are allowed on the beds/couches. Our cats are the same way. I watch them for personality changes. Do they seem like they need little more interaction then they will get the interaction they need. I want you and them to be happy when you see me.

About: Growing up on a 5-acre farm, I've raised all types of animals from cats to dogs or even pigs and horses. I have experience with shepherd dogs, pugs and bulldogs, st. Bernards and rottweilers, elderly pets, puppies and kittens, nursing and pregnant mamas, and so on! I also have taken care of horses, dogs, cats, and ferrets when house-sitting. My schedule is super clear these days! I am a part time lifeguard, soon to transition to coaching high school soccer, so Im usually free for most of the day every day. When I am taking care of your pet in your home, I will prioritize your family’s specific needs and respect any rules you have in place.

“Bevan was prompt in communicating, he sent photos daily, and did a nice job taking care of our puppy, Bailey, who demands a lot of attention!”

About: My entire life, I have loved pets of all shapes and sizes. I have been trusted to care for countless animals over the years and am always willing to make a new friend. I work 8-4:30 most days, but live close enough to come that I can stop and check on your pet if it is at my home. Weekends I have wide open availability and can fit your needs in whatever way possible! My pets are all loved profusely and I have never met a pet I didn’t like. Your pet will be treated as one of my own.

“Shelby did a great job with our pup! She stayed with him and cuddled him while we were out all day and safely secured him in his kennel when she left for the day. He was a happy and safe dog thanks to her!”

About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life! We’ve had many different breeds of dogs growing up (Australian shepherds, a Jack Russell Terrier, Beagle, and mini poodle). I’m also the go to pet sitter when my friends and family go out of town and have watched Golden Doodles, an American Bully, and Yorkie’s. I have experience with different breeds, sizes, personalities, and ages! :) Currently, I work part time (3 days a week) so I have a ton of morning/afternoon availability to care for and play with your pups! :) I’m able to do a variety of tasks in order to help take care of your fur baby :) I am able to walk your fur babies during the day, as well as feed them, bathe them (if needed), play with them, and just check in on them. If there’s any service I didn’t list that you may need, just ask and I more than likely am able to do it :)

“Alexis is great! We loved receiving all the pictures of our pups while we were away ? would highly recommend her to anyone needing someone to look after their fur babies”

Jillian R.

“Dan was awesome! He took care of our pup and stayed at our house for the week. He sent us pictures most days and kept us updated. We would definitely recommend.”

Aaron S.

“I am one of 'those moms' leaving a whole page of notes, tips, suggestions, etc., but my boys are my everything...so...I was so happy to find Cassie! She was great with the boys - sending lots of pictures of their play and rest times. She took great care of the house too during her overnights. We've already booked two more weekends away knowing our boys and our home are in great hands with Cassie!!”
