“Our kitty cat, Katie, loves Jen! We can't say enough good things about her. Katie was happy and loved on just like if we were home. When an unforeseen situation arose, Jen handled it like the pro that she is. Jen was timely with all of her visits, and took excellent care of our little fur baby. Book with Jen - you won't regret it!”

About: I have taken care of my own pets, neighbors pets and my grand cat and dogs. My grand dogs are very energetic Huskies! I love animals. I love walking dogs or taking them to the doggie park. I enjoy throwing balls, sticks and whatever else they bring to me and playing tug a war with dogs and of course giving and getting doggie love. I enjoy cat cuddles, playing chase the laser with cats or just sitting with a cat in my lap and listening to it purr. I am retired. I am available anytime. I live in a quiet neighborhood with a large fenced in backyard. I am located between the Westwrn MD scenic RR and the Potomac Eagle Scenic RR which makes it convenient for us to host your fur babies while you enjoy scenic views of our beautiful mountains and towns. I have a large 4 Ft high-fenced in backyard. Lots of trees for shade and plenty of room to run. We live in a secluded area where walks are quiet and trails are plentiful.

About: I have hands-on experience raising and training three dogs of my own, currently aged 2, 3, and 4. I’ve cared for them since they were puppies, handling everything from basic obedience training to daily walks, feeding, grooming, and socialization. I’m a nursing student home for the summer and looking for a fun, active way to earn extra income. I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes. Whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood or some playtime in the yard, your pup will be in good hands! Your pup will be cared for in a safe, loving environment at my home, which has a fully fenced-in yard perfect for play and exercise. Dogs are always supervised and treated like family whether we’re enjoying outdoor time or relaxing inside, your dog will feel right at home.

About: I've been surrounded by furry friends my whole life. Chores in my early life included taking care of my childhood cats and dogs. I also have experience raising a litter of pups and caring for senior dogs with special needs. After college, I began raising my own dog, Birdie. My dog and I love adventuring outside in the woods and I am on a mission to visit 12 National Parks with her during her lifetime. Whether it's park romps, creek runs, or nail trims, I'm a pro at keeping dog companions happy and healthy. I'm currently in between jobs, so I have plenty of availability in July, August, and September 2025. I will keep my profile updated with my availablility. I am available for house sitting, as well as early morning (before 8a), midday (11a-1p), or evening (after 4p) visits. Please reach out for scheudling Winter Holiday pet care. My daily routine starts with letting the dog out to use the restroom, then she gets fed, and then I start my day. We walk at least once a day and we try and get to the local park as often as we can (because smells in the neighborhood get boring). My nightly routine consists of letting the dog out one more time (just in case), then brushing my teeth and tucking myself into bed beside the dog, who usually gets her own pillow. Boarding services can be offered with my current living situation, however, two cats will be present (both have lived with dogs their whole life), along with my dog (she is quite friendly and loves to play keep-away with other furry friends). The yard is large and unfenced with a huge amount of woods out back. There is an outdoor kennel with a doghouse. My dog hates it but yours might like it. I have plenty of experience walking two dogs at once, so no problem taking Birdie and your dog on a walk together.

Anthony C.
“Anthony is a wonderful animal lover and pet caretaker! He is genuinely interested in what is going on in an animal’s mind and world that makes them happy, anxious, upset, loving, etc. Anthony is happiest in your fur baby’s company and is conscientious and very responsible and reliable. His background and knowledge of animal behavior give him a boost when dealing with animals who may have separation issues, high stress, etc. He is indiscriminate about your fur baby’s being/apperance: big floof, chonky shorty, zoomie goof, pocket pet, or lovable puddin’. I trust my dogs, cats, and rabbits with him whenever I have to be out of town or working long days. I love Anthony’s enthusiasm for animals and genuine desire to care and protect our most vulnerable creatures.”
