“Asia was great with our house and animals. We could tell by the way our dog acts when she see Asia that they are friends. Our requests were taken care of and our house was the way it was when we left it in her hands. We highly recommend her.”


“Cari was amazing! Our pups absolutely love her and we felt so at ease with her being there with them while we were out of town. She sent us lots of pictures and the house was neat as a pin when we got home. We’re so happy we found her!!!”


“My dogs LOVE Rita! They look so happy and so relaxed with her (which we can appreciate since they are a couple of crazy pups and one is usually quite high strung). She treats our babies like her own. ❤️”


“Juliana and Celeb did a wonderful job at carrying for our two dogs. Our pups feel in love with Juliana. And she showed them so much love and attention while we were out of town. They didn’t even act like they missed us, hahaha. We will definitely be using them again. They took excellent care of our home and even made sure our plantings were watered in this record breaking heat. My husband and I felt so good while away knowing our babies were being cared for by two people who love dogs and are very good with them. Thank you both for being so awesome with Bandit and Boone.”


“Fraya was great with all of our animals. It was so nice to be able to go away knowing that they would be in good hands. She was also willing to watch over a few of our farm animals which was awesome! She would send daily photos of the animals which gave me relief knowing they were adjusting okay with us being gone. We were lucky to find fraya and thankful we did. She is pleasant, reliable, and trustworthy and we would definitely use her again.”


“Shanelle was an absolute godsend. We had a last minute weekend trip and she was able to stay with our pups at our home and keep both in good order. I cant recommend her enough.”



“We're fairly new to PA & needed someone to come house sit with our dog & cat while on vacation. Melisha was available during our anticipated days away & from her profile/bio she seemed a good fit. I booked a meet-n-greet & while speaking with her in person, I knew she was THE one to watch Gunther & Honey. She's very personable, very knowledgeable, and experienced. I had requested she send daily pictures & updates, & that's exactly what she did - kept in daily communication (unlike other sitters I've had in the past). She also walked Gunther daily, & fed him at my requested times to keep his schedule as close to normal as possible. I will be booking Melisha again to watch our fur babies during future trips out of town! She was excellent, & I highly recommend her!!!”


“Valerie was so great with Bandit. She sent us photos and updates. She absolutely knew his needs and took very good care of him. She was also very accommodating since she didn’t have much notice. I would absolutely have her sit with him again. Bandit actually cried for her when she left. Great girl and great personality. Thank you so much Valerie for taking good care of our fur baby.”

About: I am a well experienced dog sitter who you can count on to make sure your pet(s) are safe, played with and overall tended to. I am flexible and often available short notice as well, providing my clients with the BEST possible service. I am available afternoons for dog sitting during the weekdays but on weekends I am more than happy to adjust my schedule to cater to your pets schedule. I care for pets in your home or my home the same way I'd care for my own pet! I'd be attentive, playful, and make sure that your pet would have all of its basic needs met.

About: I’ve been pet/home sitting for 7 years with different families all over Maryland. My goal is to give clients ease and know their pets/home is in good hands! 😊 Since I work in the evenings, my mornings and afternoons are free to walk, play, or just keep your fur baby company while you’re away. And with house sitting, I’ll make sure your plants watered, etc. What started out as something I did to help our family and friends has grown to something I thoroughly love to do! While I do not have any pets of my own, I know there is great l responsibility when taking care of animals . My promise is to keep your pets in the safe environments you’ve provided/created for them.

Sennette F.
“Sennette has taken care of our pet family a couple of times now and is definitely top of mind for any future trips. She has stayed at our house and watched 4 dogs (3 labs and a cavapoo) and a cat. She does great, takes care of the animals well, is considerate of our and their preferences, and checks in only on an as-needed basis while we are away. However, if we asked for pictures, she'd send them. I have no qualms about her staying at our house. She's a lovely person and great with pets (and kids!).”
