Highlights
Pet care experience
A lifetime of experience!
I have been known for my love of canines since I was a young boy. All of my life, dogs have been members of my family. I am the owner of a local carpet and office cleaning company and certified to clean oriental rugs and upholstery, so no mess is too big for me to handle. Every year I house sit for over 7 days for a family with 5 dogs and a cat. I make sure the house and yard are fresh upon their return. Because of my cleaning business, I am trusted to be in homes and high security buildings without supervision. Your vacation or business trip can be stress-free, and you will have peace of mind knowing that I am taking care of your pet(s) and property.

Ratings and reviews
Ruth came by to help out with our two dogs while we were out of state for the day. While we'd met Ruth and Keith once before, we hadn't used their services prior to now. Our two large dogs - specifically the oldest dog - can be VERY stubborn. Like, "might-feel-like-giving-up-convincing-him-to-get-off-the-couch" kinda stubborn. But both Ruth and Keith seemed convinced they could manage it, and they were RIGHT! Ruth came by to help out that day, and she was AWESOME. Apparently, both dogs were easy to deal with (go figure), and they even gave her a little snuggle time while she was here. We will DEFINITELY be contacting Ruth and Keith again in the future. THANK YOU!!
Keith and Ruth were great ! They made our experience with Rover a pleasant one. I was ecstatic that they could accommodate our pup with short notice. Keith kept us at ease with text and pictures to let us know our pup was adjusting.
Great communication and great space for the dog to run around. Will definitely use again.
Ruth and Keith were amazing! So attentive and caring towards our dogs while we were away! They gave us frequent updates and sent photos and videos. They even checked in on our last day to make sure we didn’t have any travel delays and the dogs were cared for. I would absolutely recommend Ruth and Keith and we’ll be using them again in the future! Thank you so much!
Never had to worry about a thing, which is all you could ask of pup sitters! The pups were well taken care of, even with our lab being mischievous.
Keith & Ruth did a excellent job taking care of our big girl. They provided pictures and updates keeping me at ease for our trip. We will for sure use again.

Schedule
My wife and I are home the majority of the day. She works from home and I have my own business so I can make my own schedule. We don't have any pets of our own, so your pet(s) will get all of the attention.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Our fenced in yard allows us to keep the dogs outside with us when we are working in the yard or swimming in our fenced-in pool. We love to play fetch with active dogs and are happy to sit with the older pups. At the client's home, if there isn't a fenced yard, walks are essential. They stay on whatever schedule you have developed for them at home and get lots of love. We are trustworthy to access your home with a garage code or key and leave a client's home better than we found it!!
A typical day
When I watch my nephew’s cane corso, I have been known to throw the frisbee/ball for hours. I live on a quiet street, so I would walk the dog(s) in the neighborhood or the local parks. If they are social, I would venture to the Chesapeake Beach boardwalk.
