“Mary is the best. She communicated with us and sent us lots of pictures of our Cat Ray!!! She went above and beyond to help us with plants and clean up, check mail and brought in our trash. She is very professional and sweet. We have peace of mind knowing she was taking the best care of our boy. Thank you Mary you are the best!”
“Robin did a great job caring for our two dogs! She gave timely updates and pictures so we knew everything was going well while we were away. They looked happy! We will definitely use her services again.”
“I could tell once I came home my dogs (2 big 65 lbs boys) were super happy and relaxed after Ernest's visits. He is great with communication and I feel has proven to be very dependable. You can see he loves dogs and dogs love him. I look forward to working with him again in the future.”
About: I’ve been dogsitting since I was 18 years old. I love dogs of all sizes, and cats too! I’ll love them like my own fur baby ❤️ any questions feel free to ask! I’m currently working Wednesdays-Fridays from 7a-7p but open to other days! I like to live an active lifestyle and would love to bring your pet along with me to get a walk in during the day :) I have my own furbaby at home that loves walks, and would love to take yours on walks as needed. I can also pop in to play with them!
“Thank God for Melissa… She took excellent care of my Kitties even though they are scared of strangers. I was out of the country during the cold snap and she walked into a very cold house, but got my thermostat working so it stayed at 70°… not in the 40”s she walked into and let me know what was going on every day she came. Everything was clean and taken care of. I will definitely call her again when I am traveling.”
“If there was more stars I’d highlight them. Amazing people and true love of animals and Blossom. Looking forward to my next get away knowing I feel comfortable and safe with them. Happy Birthday Carol Ann!”
About: My best friend is my dog. She is an American Pitbull-Terrior. I have been an animal owner for over 35 years. I have been an animal lover since I could walk. I'd love to give your best friend what they need when you cant. I work part time 4 days a week as a homeschool tutor and caregiver. I have plenty of time in my day to give your best friend the love it needs when you can’t. I won't be offering in home care at the moment. I have a dog who enjoys being the only dog. I can happily visit your home.
“Sara was amazing. She was extremely helpful in making my 1st experience enjoyable. She communicated well and kept me in the mix while I was away. I would highly recommend Sara and would use her again when I'm away”
About: My favorite pastime is walking with the dogs. In your neighborhood or in mine, we can go fast or we go slow, just as long as we go! No day is complete without some wags and walks. Does your fur baby need a special day or time for a walk? We can go on a morning run, afternoon walk, or an evening stroll. I do sleepovers! Does your pup want to stay at your place or mine? Either is fine. I have extra room on my couch and a comfy bed for your fur baby to lay their head.
About: I've taken care of animals my entire life and have always loved doing it. I was raised on a farm and have cared for all types of animals. I understand how nerve wracking it can be to have someone else watch over your pet, and I promise to always treat them like my own. I am able to provide services for puppies all the way through senior care. I can also assist in training, such as potty training, sitting, crate training or heeling. I am available for check-ins and daily walks any time after 4:30 pm on weekdays, and am much more flexible with my schedule on the weekends. I always double check any type of safety or health concerns the pet may have, and I will always reach out to owners when needed. I will provide walks, feedings, and training as requested by the owner. I will always ensure your pet is taken care of fully, and will never rush the session.
About: Back in 2014, my parents adopted my sweet Sadie girl! Ever since then, I have learned the responsibility of caring for my girl and giving her all the lovings! She has led me to caring for other dogs by walking and feeding them at their owners request. I’m a full-time teacher for FCPS, but am looking for something to do after school and on the weekends. I am available 7 days a week other than when my brewery that I work at part-time schedules me. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings on Saturday and Sunday. I can also be available on weekdays in the late afternoon. Once summer comes around, I will be very flexible and will adjust to your schedule. I am more than willing to bring your puppy to my fenced in courtyard at my apartment complex. I am comfortable putting dogs into crates as well and feeding.
About: I've had many pets growing up, from cats, dogs and fish to a chinchilla! Ive gained so much experience and knowledge throughout my 18 years of living, but I love having more! Your fur babies will be my top priority as long as they're in my care. I'm currently just looking for something to do that I love! All I have going on is enjoying the summer before college! I love meeting new pets! If there's anything I take more seriously then keeping your pet safe and happy, is making sure your home is respected and left spotless for when you get back!
About: Friendly, nonsmoking + responsible man excited to look after your pet! I have had dogs almost my entire life, and trained them to learn tricks and obedience, also live by myself and love animals of all kinds, I have designated a room in my house just for pets, they will have also be able to play in the yard, enjoy morning, and afternoon walks. stay over night if needed. Feel free to ask me any question.
About: I believe that pets are family. I treat my own dog like he’s my son instead of just a household pet. I will treat yours like family as well. I currently work from home so your pet will never be left alone. My dog has separation anxiety so I totally get it and can care for your pet around the clock I will make sure they are on the normal routine they have always been on so it’s like they’re home. Routine is everything for animals and I 100% understand that.
