“Bria was fantastic. This was our first time booking with her and the meet and greet went smoothly. She took excellent care of both Hampton and Neko and kept our home clean and tidy. We felt completely at ease while we were away. We are already looking forward to having her sit for us again soon. Highly recommend.”


“Ty is super helpful and communicative! And our cat loves him! Cat barely comes out to play with other sitters, but Ty always seems to entice our cat to play, and sends pics. Thanks Ty!”


“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.”


“Christine is an amazing sitter. We have two small dogs (one is a puppy) and we were concerned about having them stay in someone else's home. Thankfully, we found Christine, who will come to your house to stay. She not only met, but exceeded our expectations. Rex and Rusty were well taken care of and our house was exactly the way we left it (if not cleaner). We will definitely be using Christine in the future!”


“Pre was amazing. I completely screwed up the days I needed dog sitting for and she just rolled with it. I was so grateful for her flexibility and grace. Indy was very happy he got to chill in his own home. We will definitely hire her again.”


“Jess did an amazing job taking care of my pups (and home) for the week I was away! She’s the perfect amount of communicative, sends cute pics of the pups, and they absolutely adore her. 10/10 would recommend anytime!”


“Gavin was great. He loved our girls as much as we do!! He gave us constant updates on our girls along with pictures. He had to administer a last minute medication and did it successfully with care and love. He was neat and courteous of our home and I have already rebooked him for next weekend. I will not hesitate to book hm again in the future.”


About: I will be using all the income I earn from this platform to pay for my dog Beau's bilateral TPLO surgery. My poor guy has had three surgeries in 6 months, and TPLO's are not cheap. I would greatly appreciate your business which can help me get the best care possible for my baby! I have been pet sitting and house sitting since I was a kid! I grew up with dogs and have cared for my own dogs since I was 19 years old. I’ve also lived with a cat and often provided care to friends cats. I personally have owned bulldogs with lots of health needs so am comfortable administering medications of all sorts. My current dog is big, and also reactive on a leash so I’m comfortable handling dogs of larger size and who might be reactive! Please just let me know if your pet has reactive tendencies so I can be prepared. I currently work from home most days of the week which makes it easy for me to help out with daytime needs in addition to after work hours and weekends! I’m also happy to do overnight stays though would need to come and go so I can also care for my dog. I want to provide whatever care makes your dog most comfortable in their home during your absence. Please let me know what I can do to make them feel comfortable! Happy to play, snuggle or whatever they need.

“I’ve never been away from my dog for more than 3 days, and Hannah stayed with him for a whole week and made me feel extremely comfortable! She gave frequent updates and handled his specific needs super well. He can be a tough pup to watch and she was amazing. Highly recommend Hannah for pet sitting!”


About: Hello, My name is Vivien. I just moved to Baltimore from New Jersey. I have a Chihuahua named Carlos (haha!). He is 6 years old and is the most loving dog ever. He does not bite, and is very low maintenance. Carlos grew up with both a German Shepherd and a Chocolate Lab. Hence why he gets along very well with big dogs despite his size! My boyfriend and I are dog lovers... well we love ALL dogs, and are here to help make your dog feel like their on vacation too! I work full time as an auditor but my boyfriend works the opposite schedule as me which works out great for taking care of not only our dog but many other dogs as well ! We are VERY active people and will love to take your dog out to have some fun. There are so many great parks around Baltimore especially because we live in fells point =). If you would like to learn more about us, please feel free to reach out. We want to make you feel comfortable and also trust us with your dogs ! I currently work full time at home so my schedule is pretty flexible! I’m able to sit your fur baby and also do lunch walks! My pets are all very friendly and well socialized. I can either separate your dog/cat if needed and can follow all your necessary wants and needs

“Carlos did a wonderful job watching our two dogs! He went above and beyond while house sitting for us - in a very hectic time, it was great to know we could trust him with our dogs.”


“Our scheduled sitter had an emergency after we had already left town and obviously panic ensued as we could not find a replacement. Jade and Johnny saved the day! They responded to the request from Rover support in 15 minutes and were able to watch Bruce for the remainder of the weekend! We jumped on a call with them and we immediately felt confident that they would be a great fit to watch Bruce. After a few hours of stress and uncertainty trying to find a replacement, we started receiving photos and updates which continued throughout their time! Bruce felt comfortable with them immediately and had a lovely weekend!”


About: I have loved and cared for all animals nearly all of my life! I have house-sat and pet watched for neighbors while they were on vacations, always making sure every animal I took care of felt safe in their space with me, comfortable to play or lounge as they see fit, and well fed and hydrated. I have learned that patience and the prioritization of the animals comfort is essential to taking care of them properly, and is something I deeply value! I work full-time during the week, and have dedicated the weekends to pet care. I work remote on Wednesdays, so I can be available throughout the day, as well as all day on Saturdays and Sundays! I do not offer services in my home as I have two cats who prefer to be the only animal occupants! However, in a clients home, I first make sure the client and I are on the same page with the services they are seeking for their pet. I then ensure that I find out the animals personality, its likes and dislikes in terms of play or petting/human interaction, and the proper feeding schedule. My top priority is to make both the client and the pet as comfortable as possible, so finding out these important details will ensure my ability to accomplish that!

“We are so glad Sydney was available on short notice to watch our girl, Marjie, so we could go out of town for the weekend. We appreciated the daily pics of Marjie & Sydney’s transparency when she needed to leave Marjie at the house for more than a few hours - she also left the house in great condition!”


“Danielle is so friendly and reliable! We felt at ease knowing she was checking in on our cats and giving them love! She even sent pictures and videos! Well definitely use her anytime we’re going out of town.”


“Olivia has looked after Henry & Sadie several times now and has been incredible with them every time! We know Henry & Sadie are in great hands when we are away. This booking was a last minute request due to some holiday plan changes and Olivia was flexible and accommodating. We are so grateful for her!”

“Andi was great! Our cats were well loved while we were gone and it gave us such a peace of mind having her come and water plants, grab the mail and make sure the cats were taken care of.”


About: Hello all! My schedule is super flexible in the winter! Especially during the holidays! I don’t mind dog sitting on the weekends and my mornings are extremely flexible. Being so close to work I can walk your dog for 30-45 mins before my shift starts in the afternoon! I have a past of dog sitting for family friends since I was 16! I’m very well at communicating and keeping you up to date about your pup! If there is anything else you’d liked to know, feel free to ask! Thank you so much! I usually work night. From either 4pm-9:30pm or 9pm-3am… my afternoons are always open. I am flexible with traveling to do check in early in the am or afternoon. I find quality time very important! I make sure to spend time every day to play and pet the animals under my care. I also take pride in paying eye close attention to the fur baby’s needs! A have a cat who unfortunately has Feline Leukemia…. I make sure to monitor your litter and make sure she has no swelling or sneezing. I stride to make sure every pet is happy and healthy! Their needs are very important to me!

She often shares helpful suggestions, like tips on snacks or vitamins, which I truly appreciate as a first-time cat owner. Whenever I have a concern, she’s the first person I ask because of her extensive knowledge. Booking with Emily means peace of mind! You can trust that your fur baby will be treated with genuine love and care. We’re extremely grateful for her reliability, efficient communication, kindness, and trustworthiness!”
