Tabitha was great with Riley.. I knew from the first meeting and Riley’s response to her she was a good choice. She took the time to care for her as well as play. She even added a day last minute which I really appreciated! I would definitely book with her again anytime I need a dogsitter.

Menkaure was very kind, respectful, and punctual. He has a very calming personality that jives well with my rambunctious dogs. He took my two large Huskies for 4 walks in the past week and he did an amazing job. He followed all instructions and the dogs loved him.

Jeanette is such a blessing to me and my little guy Romeo. She took care of him for four days while I was traveling out the country. Jeanette is kind, friendly , reliable . professional, trustworthy and great with dogs. Romeo loved her immediately. Jeanette perfectly followed the care plan that I created. She left my home very clean and even was flexible to add on an extra day of care due to flight change of mine. I highly recommend her to care for your fur babies!

Susan was a BLESSING for me and my dog when we needed a last minute check-in. She was so incredibly thorough and took great care to make sure she fit our routine and connected with Birdy. I recommend Susan to absolutely anyone who’s looking for competent care, a bubbly personality, and patience with an energetic and home-defending fuzz butt!!! We loved her!

Nia was wonderful with our 5 year rescue. Our dog can be a bit fearful and nervous around strangers. During the initial meet and greet, Nia spent over an hour building rapport and trust with our dog which was awesome. She tried a lot of different strategies and finally got her comfortable enough to go out for a walk, which was no mean feat. Nia was also very communicative - keeping us updated if she was running late. She provided detailed updates and photos on the daily Rover cards which kept us informed and comforted that our doggo was well taken care of while we were away.

Yeji came three time a day to walk Eilidh while I was recovering from surgery. She was friendly, communicative, and arrived on time. Most importantly, she treated my fur baby well, giving her affection and some much needed exercise/potty time. I will definitely reach out to Yeji if I ever need help again.

Shannon has been great with Ellie so far. She’s done a really good job getting Ellie to warm up to her and allows her to go at her own pace. Shannon is an excellent communicator and has been flexible scheduling around vacations and me working from home. She has a great background with pets and makes a fine dog walker.

Priscilla has been watching Jake for almost a month now and she is great. Jake adores her, he loves walking and playing with her, and she takes great care of him. Priscilla communicates very well with me before and after she walks Jake, and she sends several pictures and video. She also asks a lot of questions about any special care or needs Jake might need. I can tell she really cares about Jake, and animals in general, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog walker/sitter

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.

About: My wife and I are fur mamas to 3 quirky dogs and a ton of foster pups! We have experience caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities- from playful pups to sincere seniors. We always stick to routines, and make sure they get plenty of walks, playtime, and love while you’re away! We also have experience with shy and anxious pets, as well as other behavioral issues. Pet care fits perfectly into our routine since one of us works from home and has a flexible schedule. We are able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day, whether that’s walks, playtime, feedings, or just keeping them company. We build our day around their needs, so they’re never left alone for long and always get plenty of care and interaction. We always tailor our care to each pet’s needs, whether they’re in our home or their own. In a client’s home, we stick closely to their routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions, so pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar space. For drop-in visits, we make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and a quick check on their overall well-being. During walks and hikes, we prioritize safety, fun, and positive reinforcement.
