“We requested last minute to watch our cats & it has been nothing but amazing! We had a meet & greet prior which helped my anxiety. Super super communicative and very detailed reports - also takes cute photos! Will definitely go back!!”

“Maricella was the best Rover sitter we've had by a landslide! She gave Maverick so much love and attention while we were gone for the weekend - she took him on the longest walks, gave him extra cuddles on the couch, and comforted him when some bad weather rolled through. Our dog Maverick is a big boy - 130lb Boxer-Bloodhound - and she was the first sitter who has ever met him that hasn't greeted him with some type of apprehension. She sent TONS of pictures - at least 50 more than we've ever received - and we knew from the start that he was safe and in good hands. We will absolutely be using Maricella at any and every opportunity from this point forward... ESPECIALLY since Maverick was looking all around the house for her when we got back! We could tell he enjoyed his time with her, and that's more than enough for us. Thank you, Maricella, you were exceptional!”

“Megan did a phenomenal job taking care of my boys! I asked her for help last minute and she really came through for me! She was respectful of my home annd my specific requests. She was amazingly patient and kind with my boys. I would definitely hire her again!”

“Our two dogs had the best time with Lilianais—she was kind, reliable, and kept us updated with photos and messages. They were tired and happy, and we’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

About: Hi! I'm a 28 y/o dog mom new to the area! I have a sweet little 10lb cavapoo who I am obsessed with and who adores other dogs! I'm home all day (Army wife life) so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets, whether it's playing with them or taking them on walks around the neighborhood. I'd love to explore the area with your pet, or just give them the snuggles they’re used to while you’re away. My dog is a rescue who I raised from puppyhood—so I don’t mind accidents, teething, training, etc. I’m vigilant about safety with dogs, especially around cars and roads, so you can rest assured knowing I won’t let anything happen to your pup. I also grew up with two very energetic dogs in my home and I know how important pets are to each family. I'm happy to get to know your pet and any quirks they might have--places to avoid, special care they require, anything at all! Little more about me: I’m from the Midwest and have my Bachelor’s from U of M! I spent the last few years in the Washington, DC area with my husband as he went through medical school & residency. We’re an Army family but still hold our Midwest roots dearly :) I work part-time remotely, so I’m home and available all day and in the evenings. I’m happy to stop by to play with your pup and take a break from work, or go on my evening hot-girl walk with your dog by my side! I will treat your pet like my own when they’re in my home! We love to play, wrestle, and snuggle on the couch! My dog has free rein so she lounges on the couch, her beds, our bed, etc. Your dog is welcome to do the same! We can assess how the dogs get along and decide how to leave them if I have to step outside—we also have baby gates where I can separate the dogs if that’s best. I do not have any children so there aren’t little toys for your dog to get into, and I’ll keep all food and shoes put away. I like to think my apartment is quiet and cozy, so I’ll be sure to provide a calm environment for your pet! I am able to go to your home and meet your pet in their familiar space. I am open to all notes and tidbits about your home, your neighborhood, etc so that your pet has the best experience with me.
“Dayana, Agreed to do drop ins on REALLY SHORT notice... She was prompt, communicative and excellent in all regards. I hope the next time We require a drop in She is available.”

“Kaila is the best!!!!! I love when she cares for my dogs. She is so kind. She is so good at communicating with me and does the best notes. I never have to worry while I’m away because I know they are safe and cared for with her!”

About: I treat every dog like my own—with love, patience, and personalized care. I have hands-on experience with puppies, including basic training, crate routines, and leash manners. I’m also gentle and attentive with senior dogs, making sure they’re comfortable, and moving at their own pace. Whether it’s a high-energy walk or a slow, cozy cuddle session, I adapt to each dog’s needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and truly passionate about keeping tails wagging and hearts happy even when you’re away. I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to care for your pups. I am available Monday-Wednesday anytime and after 3 Thursday-Sunday. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine and creating an stress-free environment. I follow your instructions closely whether it’s feeding times, walk schedules, medication, or special comforts like favorite toys or bedtime routines. I keep your home clean and secure, treating it with the same respect as I do your pet. I’m attentive to their behavior and energy levels, making sure they get just the right balance of play, exercise, and snuggles. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry friend is safe, happy, and loved right where they feel most at home.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life, mostly my own and some family friends’ when they go on vacation. I’ve mostly dealt with smaller dogs but I have no problem with larger dogs. I currently own two dogs and one is a senior dog so he requires a little more attention. I can do basic care such as feeding and going for walks but I can also bathe if necessary. I currently work part-time and am in school for my bachelor’s degree. I’m taking a few summer courses but they are online so they don’t require too much of my time. My work schedule is relatively flexible as long as I have some time to work things out. I’ve done feeding and walks, whether it be for the restroom or just to get some exercise in. I live in a house with a large fenced backyard so my dogs are able to freely roam so they don’t like to go on walks much but we do take them out from time to time. I also play outside with them on a daily basis since they enjoy that. I usually bathe and groom my own dogs as well as some other dogs people have asked me to do.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my whole life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. For the past three to four years, I have consistently house-sat and pet-sat for family friends with multiple dogs and cats at once, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, overnight care, medications when needed, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I also have a Doberman of my own, so I’m very experienced with high-energy dogs and understand how to stay patient and calm with reactive behaviors. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m very flexible this summer since I’m home from college, which allows me to dedicate a lot of time and attention to pet care. I’m able to work around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication needs, drop-in visits, and overnight stays if needed. Because caring for animals has always been part of my daily life, fitting pet care into my routine comes very naturally to me. I always make sure pets are cared for in a safe, calm, and loving environment, whether in my home or a client’s home. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, litter boxes, medications, and any special instructions provided by owners. Because I have experience with energetic and reactive dogs, I understand the importance of patience, structure, and supervision. I also make sure clients’ homes stay clean, secure, and respected during house-sitting visits.

That being said, i know the importance of maintaining a schedule with dogs and I practice this with my own by having scheduled feedings throughout the day, going for walks multiple times a day, all while providing a trustworthy environment! I would love to get to know your pets and promise to treat them as kind as i do my own! I’m available full time for your pets! Early mornings, afternoons, and evenings I’m available for shorter or longer visits, whatever suits your pet I will work with!

“We don’t leave town very often, but when we do, there’s no hesitation in booking Sara to check in on our 3 cats. 🙂 Sara always does a wonderful job of spoiling our little monsters while we’re gone. She also sends the cutest pictures. ❤️ ❤️”

“Cindy has been an amazing help for me and my Rocky, he absolutely loves her! She made sure he was well taken care and fed while doing drop in's at my home. She's very reliable, was on time and kept me updated the whole visit. I loved the pictures she sent of him. It really made my day to see my baby being taken care of. I would definitely recommend her!”
