About: Hi there! I would love to provide a clean and home-like environment for your pets. I have over 25 years of caring for all types of animals. Available for boarding dogs and cats, house sitting(I’m unable to accommodate staying overnights), and drop-ins! Your pets will feel right at home in my care with all the attention and love they deserve! I am super fun to be around and I'm very active so your pet won't be bored or ever feel alone. I live on an acre with lots of open space for walks and playtime. I am currently not working so my schedule is very flexible. Pet care is built into my daily routine—it’s a priority, not a task. From morning walks to evening feedings and playtime, I schedule my day around each pet’s individual needs to ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether in my home or a client’s, I provide consistent, personalized care. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and medication if needed—while keeping their environment clean, safe, and stress-free. My goal is to make them feel as comfortable and loved as they do with their own family.

“Lourdes is everything you would expect from a top notch Rover. She was kind and patient and provided excellent care for our pup. She was very comunicative and sent may photos and videos, putting us at ease that our pup was well taken care of each and every day. We hope to book with Lourdes again when the time comes.”


“We were very lucky to find Amy and her family. Our pup felt right at home. Amy sent lots of pictures which helped us since Penny is always with us! We will definitely be contacting them again when we need a sitter.”


“Our dog had a wonderful week with Kathy & Brian while we were traveling! Kathy & Brian were accommodating to Grizz’s lifestyle and needs (he’s quite large and starting to show his age), and we greatly appreciated the photo updates they provided (Grizz always looked so happy and you could tell how much they were loving on him). They were also very understanding and flexible when our travel plans changed unexpectedly on the last day of our trip. We will definitely be booking with Kathy & Brian again!”


“fritz is an organized and experienced dog sitter! my pup played with new friends during the day and his bedtime routine was follwed at night . you can tell fritz loves animals and knows how to take care of them too!!”



“My dog, Kato, spent about two weeks over holidays with Cate and her family and had happy vacation! I received frequent updates with photos/videos of him and was so happy to know that he was safe, having fun, and loved while I was abroad. They took him to a park and allowed him to sleep/cuddle with them, join their holiday activities, and be his usual self just as being in his own home. Thanks much again Cate and family for caring Kato with a lots of love when I was away!! We look forward to seeing you again soon!”


“Amy was fantastic!! My dog Kevin had the time of his life for the past week with her and has been passed out since getting home! Would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter.”


“They were so wonderful with Trey! They sent us pictures every day, took him on lots of walks, and were very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. They responded to messages very quickly, and took him in like one of their own. Highly recommend and will most likely have them watch my boy in the future!”


About: I grew up with a dog, I love ALL types of animals all shapes and sizes. I just finished my time in the navy and I Would love to own a dog now but I want to give it all my time and love and my schedule wouldn't alow it so I spend as much time as I can with other animals. They keep me happy, id love to see the many different types and breeds of dogs and work with them and help them in any way possible. Whatever requests you have for your pet I’d be happy to do! I also voulenteer at the spca to help out other animals as often as I can! I’d love to spend time with your pups

“I recently adopted a bunny and we were going away on vacation for a few days… we needed someone who was able to watch my her while we were gone. We had a very nice meet and greet with Julia and she was very flexible with where my rabbit would stay, as well as how much space she could roam around in. She offered a whole room, that would be gated at the door, for my bunny. Since the meet and greet went so well, we booked her for the days we would be traveling. She made sure there was a carpet for my bun’s feet so she wouldn’t be on the hardwood floor. She put baby plugs in the outlets so my bunny couldn’t get to them. I felt very comfortable leaving my bunny with Julia and her family, they were all very kind. They even put a camera in the room so when they weren’t with my bunny, they could always keep an eye on her. My bunny seemed very comfortable and happy with the situation and adjusted very well because of Julia’s hospitality. Julia offered everything she could to make sure my bunny had an amazing stay. We will definitely be booking Julia again!!”


“Gigi is amazing! She’s so kind and trustworthy, my fur baby was sad to leave her new friend! Gigi went above and beyond taking care of my pup and I couldn’t be happier with my experience (:”


About: I own a male golden retriever, 6 years old. My phone is absolutely filled with pictures of all my animal friends, so you can rest assured I'll send plenty of photos of your loved one to you! I am a retail worker and available different days and hours each week but either myself, or my husband is almost always home. We have a great fenced in yard! Plenty of room for playing and plenty of shade for relaxing. If your dog is a good walker, we love going for walks around our neighborhood. We are very active in our dogs life. So much time in our fenced yard, toys to play with and walks around the neighborhood as often as possible. Great fenced in yard! Able to offer great playtime and lots of love ❤️ plenty of experience with anxious dogs and their various needs. Usually able to accommodate most needs.

“Natha was great with our anxious little girl. Our dog had recently had surgery, and we felt great about leaving her with Natha, who had experience as a vet tech. Our dog adjusted well and came back healthy and happy.”

Marissa M.
“I have know Marissa for over twenty years and I can't think of anyone that loves dogs (and cats) more than she does. She has two dogs of her own and takes exception care of them. She is very attentive to all of their physical and emotional needs - one of the dogs is very neurotic and requires a lot of emotional support; especially during the many thunderstorms down in Maryland. She takes the dogs for daily walks around the lake and schedules regular "play dates" for the dogs in the park. The dogs go everywhere with her, and when she visits us in upstate New York...the dogs are always the first ones in the door. I receive several daily photos of the dogs from Marissa via Snapchat and text messages, and the dogs really "ham it up" for the camera. I highly recommend Marissa as a dog sitter. She is very responsible and will take excellent care of any dog with which she is entrusted.”
