Definitely took care of my fur babies they were not anxious when I got back home which is a relief. I only critic would be of the amount of times my door alerted me of in and out home alerts (not ones of taking out trash which makes me anxious) and would like more photos next time. But other than that kitty care 10/10. And like I said next time as in, I would have her take care of my babies again!💕 very sweet lady. Very responsive. And knows what’s she is doing.

Wonderful with the dogs and cats. Went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable and happy while we were away. Kept the house tidy and very respectful of our space. Excellent communication, we got updates and pictures of the animals during our time away. Will definitely be booking with him again.

About: From caring for 10 senior dogs at a rescue, to bathing dogs that got sprayed by skunks, to training and taking dogs on their own outings to parks and nature hikes, you name it I’ve done it! Even flying with dogs! ✈️ I have experience with all breeds, ages, and like to keep pet parents informed with notes & pics. Growing up in farm country taught me to love and care for all animals, but dogs and cats are by far my favorite. I also have experience in administering medications to our furry friends. I left my career of being a nanny in CA to move to the east coast to marry my husband. That was 2019, and I’ve been boarding/caring for animals since then. I’m currently a stay-at-home wifey so the dogs get 100 percent of my attention when they are with us. We live in a 3 story townhouse with a small unfenced yard in front of our home, to a large grassy area on the side of our home, to a giant green grass patch directly behind us just out our back door. The neighborhood is VERY dog-friendly with lots of sidewalks and comes complete with a dog park in walking distance. Our home is dog-friendly meaning dogs are allowed on all furniture and we even have doggie steps for little pooches to get up on our bed if they wish. We also have a 2mile + walking path near us. So we have plenty of activity options. We even have Pluto cartoons for your pet to watch! Pets get 100 percent of my attention when they stay with us. Their comfort and safety is my priority as I do pet care full-time. Our home has no place that’s off limits to your pets. If they want to snuggle on our bed or relax on our couch or even be in our guest room - they are more than welcome wherever they are most comfortable. We even have a massive bean bag most animals love thinking it’s a giant dog bed 😂.

About: I've had cats and dogs my whole life and have spent most of my adult life volunteering for 2 animal rescue organizations. I fostered over 170 cats for my last organization (that was over a period of 15 years!) caring for all ages as well as taking in some with medical needs. I'm skilled at administering medications of all sorts and we currently have an asthmatic cat that takes an inhaler. I've been a "cat person" my whole life, but love dogs too! My husband and I love the large breeds, in particular Mastiffs. We currently have 3 cats plus a Mastiff who is the biggest baby. :-) We recently moved to Delaware (from just outside of DC) and I'm looking to re-start pet sitting as I LOVE meeting new furbabies and taking care of them. I used to pet sit in VA but put it to the side when fostering took up most of my free time. I recently took an early retirement and have plenty of free time so can offer flexibility. Since I'm married my husband helps takes care of our own cats/dog, and he understands my love of animals and desire to help others. I understand that every cat/dog is unique, with their own personality and needs. I will take the time to get to know each one and tailor my approach to ensure their comfort level,

Thank you Jenni and Matt for being so wonderful! We had the best experience with our older lab. Ellie is getting too old to stay at kennels and we are more comfortable having her home where she is familiar and happy. Jenni and Matt stayed with Ellie over the weekend and did an amazing job. They were there frequently, spent lots of time with Ellie, and communicated with us through text and pictures. We are so appreciative of their help and very happy we found people we can trust. We are looking forward to planning more trips and using Jenni and Matt's services.

Terry was absolutely Amazing!! She took great care of our 2 fur babies, sending photos and videos daily to update us on how they were doing while we were away. I was very anxious to leave our 2 cats with someone new, as our previous pet/house sitter is no longer in the business and we had not used someone new in many years, I have put off traveling due to this, much to my husband's dismay. I can say I was so relieved while away to see how great Terry was with our pets. I also think when we got home our house was cleaner than when we left! Terry did a fabulous job, she went above and beyond and now I'm ready to travel more feeling comfortable that we have found our new pet caretaker! I cannot recommend her enough!!

Tre has a calm demeanor & is very professional. He came over prior to house sitting to meet our dog, who took to him immediately. He followed our schedule, took him for long walks and when we came home our dog was well adjusted and comforted. Thank you, Tre for a job well done!

About: As both a dog lover and recently funemployed, I’ll be able to commit 100% of my time to taking care of your furry friend. I’m a previous dog owner of 11+ years as well as an experienced sitter for both puppies and several senior dogs. I do what it takes to make your pup as happy and comfy as possible while you’re away — I’ll treat them like family! Up until recently I’d been working in corporate, and I’m choosing to take a small break in between careers. My previous employers and pet care clients can attest to my attention to detail, my excellent communication skills, and my willingness to do what it takes to get the job done.

About: With over six and a half years of hands-on pet care, I bring a rare blend of experience, attentiveness, and heart. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and ages—from energetic puppies learning the ropes to senior pets needing gentle, attentive care. What truly sets me apart is my ability to read and respond to animals’ unique personalities. I create a calm, consistent environment where pets feel safe, loved, and understood. Whether it’s administering medication, offering leash training for puppies, or providing low-stress companionship for older pets, I bring patience and skill to every interaction. I also have experience caring for a diverse range of animals beyond just dogs and cats. From chickens and birds to hamsters and other small pets, I understand that every species has its own rhythm, needs, and comfort cues. I’m confident and compassionate with unique, exotic, or less-common animals, always prioritizing their safety, emotional well-being, and daily routines. Pet care is a built-in part of my weekly life. I’m highly flexible and genuinely enjoy working around each pet’s needs and schedule. Whether it’s early mornings, midday visits, evenings, or even late nights, I’m available and committed to making your pet’s care seamless and stress-free. I’m also happy to accommodate weekend bookings and unique timing requests whenever possible—just let me know what works best for you and your pet, and I’ll do my best to make it happen. Reliability, consistency, and clear communication are at the heart of everything I do. In clients’ homes, I prioritize maintaining their pet’s normal routine and environment. I follow all instructions closely—feeding schedules, walking routes, medication routines, and preferred playtime activities—so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I also make sure the space stays tidy and respected while I’m there. If I’m hosting pets in my home, I provide a calm, safe, and welcoming space. I separate animals as needed, keep food and water fresh and clean, and ensure they have access to cozy rest areas and supervised play. I never leave pets unattended, and I’m mindful of their comfort, especially in a new setting. In both cases, I focus on creating a low-stress, high-trust atmosphere, and I keep pet parents updated with messages, photos, and honest communication throughout the stay.

About: Although my family has never owned a dog, I have always loved taking care of my aunts, neighbors, and family friends dogs. I always make sure to pay attention to detail when watching a dog and meet each dogs needs whether that be a walk, playing with a toy, belly rubs, or even just relaxing. As a part-time graduate student at USM, I will have time during the day for a dog walk, or to check-in on your pup! I will be available on most weekends for house and dog sitting. I am available to come to your dog and stay with him/her so they do not have to move out of their comfortable environment and stay at a new space with new people.

She has a warm temperament which dogs loved, flows instructions, and cares for pets with great accountability. I highly recommend Jonaika for any pet sitting situation.

Jess was amazing! She watched our two dogs and stayed at our house while we were out of the country. Jess was very accommodating and we received lots of updates and pictures of the pups every day. We came home to our house just as we left it and the linens in the laundry. This was our first booking and we felt very confident leaving our pets with her. Highly recommend booking with Jess!
