House Sitting in Leonardtown

“Rileigh is amazing! Not only did she stay with our two needy dogs, she was able to assist us with a last-minute additional foster dog. We scheduled a drop in visit to see how all of the dogs interact together ahead of a longer trip. She did fantastic with three dogs! She communicated with us daily with a status update on each dog and how they were doing. She reached out and asked questions as needed and provided daily pictures, which we love! We would highly recommend Rileigh for your dog sitting needs! We will definitely ask Rileigh to house sit our pups again!!!”

“Skyler did a great job watching our two dogs while we were out of town. Excellent communication! When we got home, our dogs were very calm and happy. Will book again soon!”

“I contacted India on relatively short notice for pet sitting. She was available to come meet us and our dog before our trip. India did a wonderful job taking care of our older German Shepherd who is dealing with some skin conditions. She was very caring and followed all of the instructions that I left for medicine and wound care. We appreciate the care that she gave our girl and will definitely book with India again to take care of our dog. We also have a bearded dragon and fish that she took care of as well. Highly recommend India for pet sitting.”

About: I've had and taken care of a dog since I was 7 years old. Dogs were always a part of our family life. In my family and friend group I am the go-to person for pet sitting and puppy walks. I recently participated with a trainer from Ultimate K9 training in Southern Maryland with my own pup Russel who passed with flying colors and both he and I learned many new skills and tricks. Working with dogs is one of the loves of my life. I typically work a 7-5 shift at my day job but do have some flexibility during the day that I can use for a pup break. Evenings I am consistently available after 5pm. Weekend work is not a problem and I am open to helping support your much needed getaway. Love is always the first ingredient but of course we respect puppy boundaries as set by the puppy parents or how comfortable the pup is until they feel comfortable. Meals are fed to pups at the same time to make sure they are not feeling favoritism. Belly rubs and play time are also important for bonding and trust. I will send images of pets daily if the pet parent would like. Just let me know.

“Kim did a great job taking care of my boy! I will definitely be using her services again!!”

“Kristen was absolutely wonderful with my Pomeranian mix, Jasper, over Spring break. From the very beginning, she was flexible with my schedule and made the whole handoff seamless and stress-free. It was clear she genuinely cared about Jasper’s comfort and wellbeing. She was attentive, communicative, and completely dedicated to making sure he was happy and well looked after while I was away. Knowing Jasper was in such good hands allowed me to fully enjoy my time away without a second of worry. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I will absolutely be reaching out to Kristen again and recommend her without any hesitation!”

About: I have taken care of animals for over a year now at a dog daycare/boarding centre in a variety of different circumstances. From Mastiff’s to Chihuahuas, I am confident taking care of various different sized dogs with a variety of different dietary needs from raw diets to kibble diets, medical needs from dogs that get medication once a day to dogs that get medication several times a day, and activity needs from dogs that need regular exercise to senior dogs that don’t need to be exercised. I have also had experience handling dogs that are extremely nervous around new people, dogs that can resource guard toys, and dogs that are highly reactive. I am a full-time commuter college student with large gaps between my morning and afternoon classes which I can travel to and from the owners house to let their dogs out and play with during. The only time that I am unable to stop by the house between classes is on Thursdays where I will be gone from 8 am to 2 pm due to my in-person lab course. I only offer services at my clients house so as of not to subject the pet to unnecessary stress from being in a new environment. I can administer any medication that is not via injection, I can cater to a variety of diets ranging from raw meat every day to freshly cooked food three times a day to kibble twice a day depending on the dogs needs, I have personal leashes that I can use or I can use the owners leashes to take the dog on walks as often as request/needed.

“Jordan was an excellent house sitter!!! Definitely my way to go on my next trip… no worries about my doggie girls while away!! Will recommend to every doggie family I know!!😂”

“Shemoy was wonderful! We have had bad experiences with Rover dog sitters in the past, but she made us feel very at ease while watching our dog. She was very responsive and reliable. She even left the sweetest Christmas treats for my dog. You can tell she really cares about animals. I will definitely book with her again.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was 7 even having my own pup. Caring for the neighborhood pets was not only something to pass the time but I built a bond with them with daily walks, playtime and feeding. This is something I continue to do today. I currently work from home, which has afforded me time throughout the day to be able to provide that extra care whether it is vet visits, walks outside, or even additional playtime in a day. I currently stay in an area that has a fenced play area outside. I do have a small dog myself but have gate areas up if needed for separation.

“Really good with the animals… 2 cats and and a Velcro dog. Appreciated updates. Highly recommend Virginia and will use her again.”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 11. I have taken care of neighbors and friends dogs! I took animal science in high school for two years which included dog grooming two days out of the week and also learning about all animals in general. I worked at Hayfield Animal Hospital as a Kennel Assistant when I was in high school as well. This required walking and feeding dogs on a day to day basis. Through my junior year of high school through college, I was a summer camp counselor for a Horse riding stables. This included taking care of 30+ horses every morning and night during the week. I have been riding horses for 20 years now and have an equine minor. I have lots of experience with dogs and cats! I currently have two dogs of my own that I love very much. I have grown up with cats and until recently have always had one or two in my life. I currently work full-time from home. I work from 8 to 5 but can sit before then, during lunch, or after work. I also have time on the weekends to sit as well. I have two dogs of my own at home, so I cannot do in-home sitting currently. I will take great care of your pups/cats at your own home and follow any instructions given!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since 12. My family have relied on me to walk, play, and bathe their pets. I’m very playful with pets to keep them entertained & enjoy cuddling with them also. I’m a student in college & work full time, This fits my schedule on weekdays being able to finish work in the early morning as well class and have free time the rest of the day. I have a fenced yard, and much attention to give. I keep an clean and safe environment for anyone especially from keeping dangerous chemicals away at all times.

“Erik was absolutely amazing!!!! It was the first time leaving my dogs with a sitter while I was out of town and I will definitely be using his service again!!! He shared pictures of the dogs every day and he made me comfortable while I was clear across the country. He even washed the couple dishes in my sink!!! I would definitely recommend Erik to all my friends and family!!!”
