Top rated Mount Vernon house sitters

“Lydia was perfect with Kobe! She came and visited us at our hotel before our booking and took notes on everything he would need. She was sure to send us updates and keep him safe. Would recommend if in the Baltimore area!”


“Katie was such a wonderful pet sitter! She took care of our large lab-mix and 4 cats over the course of a weekend. She was quick to respond to setting up a meet and greet and responded immediately to our booking request. During the weekend, she set us updates and pictures so we could be sure our pets were having fun! She helped to ease our anxiety about leaving our one cat who is a "runner"! She even walked our dog in the morning before she left which left the pup calm until we got back home. I would 100% recommend Katie to anyone looking for a pet sitter/dog walker! Thanks again Katie for the organic veggies!!”


“Kathleen took great care of our senior cat and our home. She navigated some technical challenges with our alarm system with professionalism and good humor. Highly recommend. Will definitely re-book.”


“Bria was fantastic. This was our first time booking with her and the meet and greet went smoothly. She took excellent care of both Hampton and Neko and kept our home clean and tidy. We felt completely at ease while we were away. We are already looking forward to having her sit for us again soon. Highly recommend.”


“Pre was amazing. I completely screwed up the days I needed dog sitting for and she just rolled with it. I was so grateful for her flexibility and grace. Indy was very happy he got to chill in his own home. We will definitely hire her again.”


“Christine stayed in our home with our German Shepherd for two weeks while we traveled. I prepared 3 pages of instructions regarding both the house and the dog. I needn't have worried...she was extremely capable and did an excellent job taking care of everything. I received daily email updates and photos. The house was spotless when we returned and our dog was very happy and healthy. Thanks, Chrissy!!”


“Ty is super helpful and communicative! And our cat loves him! Cat barely comes out to play with other sitters, but Ty always seems to entice our cat to play, and sends pics. Thanks Ty!”


“Natalie was amazing! Our dogs loved her right from the start. She did a great job watching our house & pups while we were on vacation. She was a joy to work with. Highly recommend!”


“Elizabeth was amazing! She was so good with our three dogs and cat. They are a handful and we worry leaving them with new people but Elizabeth put our minds at ease with frequent updates and photos. She stayed at our house and left it cleaner than she found it! She really thought of everything to make sure our late arrival home was as smooth as possible. Would 100% recommend Elizabeth!”


“Ren was fantastic! I appreciate the level of care they shown my dog- accommodating his needs since he's dog reactive ensuring safety and comfort along with taking care of my home. I'm grateful for the level of care and would recommend Ren for persitting.”


“Gavin was flexible when I had to change arrival time a few times! My dog was a little barky when he first met her and when he arrived for the stay but he was great calming her down. He gave detailed updates and sent multiple pictures! Would highly recommend him!!”


“Kathleen helped out last minute with a dog sitting for our girls and we couldn't be happier to have had her watch them. She was really sweet to them and sent updates while we were out of the house so we felt very at ease.”


“Tyasia was great. She was quick to respond and easy to book. Kaci had a blast with her and I know this because he slept a lot the next day lol. I will definitely be booking again.”


“Moriah/MJ was absolutely great. We had a weird situation (sitting 2 dogs at an airbnb while we went to a wedding), and not only did she roll with it cheerfully, she made us feel completely secure about our pups' safety and happiness while we partied. One of our dogs can be distrustful of strangers but she also was easily comfortable with MJ. Definitely recommend!”


“Evelyn was so wonderful with Sophie! She played with her and sent pictures. We could see that Sophie feels comfortable with Evelyn. We feel very fortunate to have found Evelyn for Sophie!”


“Great service for house sitting. It was my first time booking her, but she asked appropriate questions in order to understand my dog's needs. My dog warmed up to her and Vita was able to take care of her and feed and walk her while I was gone.”


“Anna was incredible. She looked after our baby meatball for a week while we were away. She sent constant daily updates and sent pictures of him. Meatball and Anna became besties, they went on walks together and he ate all of his food. Anna also went above and beyond to look after my plants and she kept our apartment in amazing condition. Overall we are super happy with Anna and will definitely be using her for any future holidays. Thanks so much Anna!”
