3. Anne Y.

“Well to start out our very one person antisocial cat absolutely adored her. She made sure Mando had everything he needed every time she came. She played, hung around with Mando. She talked to him. She even went out of her way to help us when Mando got into the bed room where our bearded dragon was she came right over and checked the situation. She made sure she checked on our bearded Dragon every day also. We will definitely be rebooking when we leave again!”


4. Britany R.

“Britany was an amazing pet sitter. She came to our home twice a day for over a week. We have three kittens all under 1 year so there were some special instructions about feeding and keeping them apart at times. Britany went above and beyond to make sure all our cats had the care and attention they needed while we were gone. She gave detailed updates as well as included numerous photos after each scheduled visit. Once you meet her you know she has the biggest heart! We need to go out of town soon and plan to book Britany again!”


5. Tatum L.

“Tatum was wonderful! This was the first time using her services and I will definitely reach out to her next time we need to travel. We have 2 kitties, Priscila and Pepper and Tatum took great care of them and played a lot with Pepper who is extra needy. I highly recommend Tatum, she is amazing and we couldn’t be happier with her services.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 6 and I’m great with all sizes, breeds and ages as I’ve helped multiple dogs give birth and I’ve also taken care of geriatric dogs. I have volunteered at Our Farm Sanctuary and I foster for The Rescue Haven My life has always been surrounded by dogs, I love my animals more than anything. The first thing I do when I wake up is take care of the dogs, take them on a walk and then give them their breakfast and enrichment bowls/mats. I base my daily routine off my pets! I have fenced in yard and three fixed golden retrievers that are sweethearts. If you use a crate, I do ask that you provide that as I only have 2 of my own and they are occupied by my two youngest dogs. I have to crate Tucker and Dixie because they will eat anything when they’re bored, INCLUDING a wall 🤣 the crate will be cleaned and sanitized before pickup. I also ask that you provide your own food, that way there’s no upset bellies! I have plenty of natural treats if you’re okay with your dog having them


12. Sara L.
“Sara is a wonderful pet owner & has the biggest heart for dogs! As a child, she would walk the neighborhood dogs, free of charge, just so she could spend some time with dogs even though she couldn’t get one of her own. This brief story encapsulates the longtime love and care Sara puts towards pets, dogs especially. She will love and bond with any pup that comes her way!”


13. Angie M.
“If you're looking for someone that will love and care for your pet the way that you do, Angie is your girl! I have always been so hesitant to leave my dogs in the care of other people but when I found Angie I just knew it was the perfect fit! My two wild dogs love her so much and I know she loves them just as much. I trust Angie with my dogs and my home whenever I am stuck at a long day of work or out of town on vacation. 5 out of 5 stars isn't enough of a rating for her, I give her a 10!”


14. Daniela D.
“Daniela is one of the most kind and caring individuals I know. If I need anything for my pets she is the first person I ask because I know that she’ll drop everything for me and my animals. She is amazing with every dog I have seen her with, and she is personally besties with my dog.”


15. Mia G.
About: I've been actively taking care of dogs since I was around 7 years old. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and am comfortable working with both large and small breeds! I have worked with dogs as young as one month and as old as 14 years. I would love to get to know your furbaby and help with their care. I have limited availability as I am currently in school. I will be available from March 17th-23rd and on some weekends, depending on week to week circumstances. I provide my dogs with frequent water breaks on walks during hot days. I am capable of keeping dogs safe if aggression occurs from other dogs and can strategically de-escalate the situation.


16. Angel A.

“Angel did an awesome job and went above and beyond to help us with our dogs!! She is very dependable and responsible. We will be using her again.”


17. Meilyn W.
“Meilyn is an excellent caregiver. She fostered two bottlers kittens who were on four medications and hanging on to life. She nursed them back to life by bottle feeding them every four hours. Administered medication and love. They thrived more each day and were adopted into their forever homes.”


18. Yolena M.

“Yolena was incredibly helpful and left robust notes at the end of her visit that left me feeling sure that my baby was well-taken care of. She communicated well and even helped with mail without being asked. Would highly recommend Yolena to any pet parent!”


19. Heavyn-Ley F.
“Heavyn-Ley is excellent with animals! She is a very loving and cheerful person! She watched our 7 year old cat named Chi Chi. She requires a lot of care, she gets an insulin shot once a day and is on a special diet. Heavyn-Ley kept her on schedule. And followed every instruction that we left for her. She also cared for our 2 year old poodle named Bennie. She made sure that she took him out 4 times a day and gave him his food/water and treats. She brushed him and everything! She is very professional and makes sure to treat your fur babies like they are her own!”


20. Julia M.
“Best Pet sitter in Baltimore County, Maryland!! Was so sad to see her go, yet so happy for her new adventure. From pop in visits, overnight stays to week long coverage she was a godsend when caring for our babies was needed. Caring for our Senior adopted pup Precious was no easy challenge she took it in stride and was so patience with her and all her silly little antics of the older years clumsiness. Our full of personality Yorkipoo Teddy that craves attention and would not leave her side along with our two adorable cats that she has helped care for since kittens that our now 13 years old (one now requires daily insulin) that always try to absorb all the attention for themselves. Where we don’t have the most exotic pets, if it’s a pet I am sure she can handle it with all of her years and experience in pet care of various pets. Trust me give her a try, she will not disappoint.”
