“We just returned from a 10 day trip. Tara and Kathryn did an amazing job taking care of our two cats while we were gone. As the other times we've asked them to check in on the fur brothers, everything was seamless. Great communication and timing not to mention all the photos they provided. It is hard to trust people to come into your home as well as be responsible for you pets well being, but we've really lucked out with Tara and Kathryn 😻”


About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has continued into my adulthood. The best decision I’ve ever made was adopting my dog, Finn, while living in New Orleans for work. He has helped my love and compassion for dogs grow exponentially. My experience in dog care comes from having my own dog and caring for the animals of family, friends and volunteering some over the years. I have experience with the puppy stage through senior dogs. I am an RN so I 4 days a week off, often in a row, and will be happy to take care of your dog during those days. I have my dog, Finn, that I care for on a daily basis and I’m sure your dog will fit right in. I currently have an unfenced yard so the dog park is our favorite place for activity! I am able to crate your dog if needed.

About: I’ve owned, trained, showed, and bred animals since the 80s and a couple years ago I did additional schooling for dog training and currently use LIMA methods for dogs. I have several animals of my own with special needs and understand how important it is to keep a schedule. I have 12 ducks, ~40 chickens, 6 cats and 4 dogs. I’m up at the crack of dawn caring for my animals, so most of my days are very open to caring for your babies. I have had many careers, but this is the most rewarding and I’ve done it all my life. As a professional pet trainer and artist sometimes I will set aside time for dog shows, but I am available most anytime. Let me know what your baby requires and I’ll see to keeping your pet happy and healthy while you’re away. My pets are all friendly and well cared for and should I add in home boarding, I have extra crates and rooms for those pets who need quiet time.

“Emily was fantastic! She sent us so many pictures and updates of our dog that we were able to fully enjoy ourselves while being out of town. You could tell she definitely cared about Dexters wellbeing. Thank you Emily!”


About: I have had pets in my household for as long as I could remember. Growing up we had cats, dogs, hamsters, Guinea pigs, and hermit crabs. In high school, I watched family and neighbors pets while they were away. In college, I got a job at a humane society. Here, I learned how to care for sick animals, administer medications, give vaccinations, treat fleas, remove ticks, take care of puppies and seniors, and much more to make sure all the animals were healthy. Also, I learned how to deal with aggressive and behavioral dogs/cats. Now, I have 4 dogs and 3 cats of my own. Most of them were rescues. I am currently a substitute teacher while I go back to school for my teaching degree. Days vary but typically I will be working 8 hours a day if I do get a job for the day. On weekends, I normally don’t have anything going on. I have a fenced in backyard that allows my dogs to run and use the bathroom. In the morning and at night, I take them for walks. In the afternoon, I take my GSP for a run. On weekends, we like to go to Sniffspots or hiking. In a clients home, I will take them for walks, play in the fenced in backyard if applicable, and sometimes with permission will take them hiking.

About: I have taken in many animals of all kinds throughout the years , Persistent and accountable caretaker. It is important to me to make a difference to all walks of life. Currently I am staying home with my young children, I am available most days of the week! And am flexible to you and your pets wishes. I have a few aquarium animals, no dogs or cats, but I also care for some of the animals next door quite often. We have small children if your pet is tolerable of them and crating is optional per your request.

About: I am very playful with pets, they will have my full attention. They will get all the kisses and hugs they want. I will treat each pet as if they were my own. I am a very responsible person and if given the change you will see that. I just moved the Baltimore area and would like the opportunity to put my service to use and be the best furbaby babysitter of all time. Please allow for me to have the opportunity to show you how responsible, kind, and compassionate I can be with your pet. You will be able to get into contact with me whenever you need reassurance that your furbaby is doing well and is happy. Everyone is welcomed in my home I am available as needed I work from home so I am able to attended to all pet needs. A typical day with me includes lots of walks and treats I have a fenced back yard that the dogs are able to run around in. It is a big house so they are able to run around where ever

“Thank you so much for taking care of my Othello! I could tell he had been well cared for when we came home. I also appreciated the additional photos and the fact that he let you pet him means he must have really trusted you! I hope to be able to book again with you!”


About: Throughout my life, I have been surrounded by a variety of pets, and my love for animals has only deepened with each experience. My deep love for pets, combined with my caregiving experience, allows me to approach each animal with the attention and care they need. I am dedicated to ensuring that their health and happiness are prioritized, treating them with the same love and respect as I would my own beloved dog, Buster. I look forward to the opportunity to make a positive impact in the lives of pets and their owners! I’m currently getting my Master degree all of my classes are online which allows for my schedule to be flexible. I also caretaker for a girl with Down syndrome which has profoundly shaped my understanding of compassion, patience, and responsibility. This experience has taught me to approach every living being with empathy and respect, ensuring that their needs are always prioritized this is a vital skill in all levels of care taking whether it’s a person or a beloved pet. My own dog also feels like a person sometimes I’d do anything for him! In terms of safety and my home environment, I have an open yard where pets can play and explore freely in a secure setting. My home features two bedrooms, one of which can be designated as a quiet space for pets needing rest or can accommodate their crates if necessary. I also have a medium portable kennel that can be utilized for added comfort and security. My dog is friendly and well-socialized, but I believe in the importance of a proper introduction, so I would like to arrange a meet-and-greet before allowing any animal to stay over. Additionally, I'm more than happy to care for pets in their own homes, ensuring that they receive familiar and loving attention. Your pet's welfare is my top priority, and I am committed to providing a safe and loving environment tailored to their needs.

About: Your pets needs and comfort are top priority! I am a huge animal lover and have owned animals of all different breeds my entire life. I currently own 2 bearded dragons, rabbit, Chinchilla, 3 cats, a husky and fish. I grew up helping out on my grandpa's beef farm and then milking cows at my neighbors. I have also done pet sitting for friends and family. I have worked at a petstore and helped out at a Vet clinic. I am always asked by friends and family to watch their animals, which I love. When sitting for someone else I treat their animals just like my own and give them tons of love and attention, I also enjoy taking pics or videos to share with the owners and keep them up to date on what is going on.

Sara W.

“Sara has watched my dog and cat for quite a few years. She follows every detail regarding how I would like my pets cared for, and she spends time with them beyond what's needed to give them attention and make them feel loved while I'm away. My dog gets excited whenever she comes around, and my cat (who doesn't like anyone) will even go by her for attention. I always used to stress whenever someone else had to care for my fur babies, but she has given me every reason to relax and not worry anymore knowing that they are in good hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their pets.”
