1. Jake S.

“Was searching for a walker very last minute and I could not have been luckier to have been able to get Jake to care for my dog! I felt so secure and comfortable with him in his care and he was so responsive and kind, and I will surely be looking him up well in advance of my next trip so I have a good chance of being able to have him walk my little guy again! Thank you so very much, Jake!!!”

About: Loving family for your furry friend. Walks and tummy rubs. We are located in the perfect walkabout town with beaches, dog park, and open spaces. Know that your furry family member will be well cared for in our home. Last minute or scheduled in advance. We accept them big and small. We just lost our beloved Zoey, our little shichon. If your pet prefers to chill alone there is plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. Stop by today for a meet and greet. We are a small family. We at the periwinkle bungalow in Oxford are at your service to make your life on the shore swell! I work from home. We like quiet mornings doing the crossword puzzle, usually cooking something yummy. We spend most of our time in the open kitchen living room space. Small home and pets are allowed everywhere except on my bed. Big yard and proximity to everything in a very quaint little town by the water. Our cats live upstairs on their own floor when we have guests, so no worries.


5. Caitlin S.

“Caitlin was an excellent walker and companion for our golden retriever, Griffey, while we visited from out of town. She was so easy to communicate with, and we enjoyed her pictures and updates from the walk. We could tell how conscientious she is because everything went so smoothly—with the house all locked up after, and Griffey’s leash and collar in the same place we left it. We highly recommend Caitlin!”


6. Hayden K.
“Hayden is more than qualified to care for all of your beloved pets! He has had experience with his family's dogs all throughout his life. More recently, he has over a year of experience working at a boarding kennel walking, feeding, and giving medication to dogs of all sizes and needs. He is a caring, compassionate, and hard-working dog lover.”

About: We have had our dog for over 10 years now and have welcomed many fosters (both dogs and cats) throughout the years into our home. We work 5 minutes from home. Our schedules sometimes vary from each other which helps with caring for pets. We have a fully fenced in back yard. We take daily walks around the neighborhood. Having an addional dog wouldnt change our routine much. We would adjust our day depending on the needs of your dog. We are very flexible! We supervise any dog play and separate when we're gone. We will listen to any request that you have and will send plenty of photos.

About: I spent 4 yrs raising guide dogs for the blind, I have taken what I have learned and used it on my dogs and friends dogs. When I had my cat I got him a humidifier so he could breathe better. I just love being with animals they have beautiful personalities, and they show you all there love. I take care of animals cause it’s therapy for me. While taking care of your pet if you want overnights I prefer to do it in the clients home, that way your pet still has there crate or bed and there toys all with them and plus it doesn’t mess up there daily routine. Dogs do better with sitters then when you board them do to there out of there element and there scared . Please if you have any questions just ask and I will happily answer them. Thank you for reading I am able to dedicate weekends and any time during the day to watch your fur babies on weekdays. I enjoy being with animals no matter shape or size I have a fenced in yard, 3 chi/mix small dogs all vaccinated and no fleas or ticks. Able to feed, walk, cuddle,and medicate if needed to

“Isabella is the absolute best! She watched my cat and dog for me on late notice and did a terrific job! She has a dog of her own that has definitely made her a dog person, and she has an unlimited amount of love for them! (and all other pets too). Isabella is a great communicator so if you need to reach her while you’re out of town, she gets back to you very quickly! She also takes the cutest pet pictures, so get ready for a ton of pictures to add to your camera roll!”


10. Kiara K.
“Not sure where to start on how much I trust Kiara with my dog, Shea. Let’s start with I felt safe knowing my dog was truly loved and in capable hands. I was able to board her for several days as well as over a week. She was fed exactly as I requested, (allergies to chicken. You do NOT want to see the results of that!), she was taken for walks (probably more than I did…poor Shea may have got used to that:-), she was brushed (can we say German Shedder?!), and most importantly, absolutely loved. I got regular updates and pictures and saw how much of the family she was. I missed my dog but I knew she was in good hands so… I was able to relax and truly enjoy my time away. Highly recommend!!! But Shea has first dibs!!!!”


11. Christie R.

“Christie was excellent! She arrived on time, provided all the requested services, and gave good notes on their time together. I appreciated the thorough account of the care she provided during her visit for my pup’s walk and the pictures!”


12. Clarke B.

“Clarke has been our farm sitter for 7 years. They regularly watch our cats (who need daily medications and injections), goats, horses, and chickens. They are very reliable and fantastic with animals. I have not hesitation recommending them as a petsitter for anyone!”


13. Kat S.
“Kat is a wonderful sitter! Very caring and calm with the animals. She told me how she used to be a special needs teacher, which I know also requires a very special person. She is also incredibly good with cats, picking them up and cradling them like a little baby...my cat doesn't even let me do that! Wonderful hire, would absolutely hire again!”


14. Leah S.
About: I've had dogs my whole life, even helping out friends to walk and take care of their pets. I will take care of your pets like they are my own. I will also send you plenty of pictures and updates while watching them. I have recently trained my own dog. Overall, I love dogs and are always willing to take care of them! I am currently enrolled at Chesapeake College and playing on the softball team. I have practice at 4pm on weekdays, but anytime before then my schedule is wide open. I have a huge backyard where my dog loves to run around and play. He loves to go for walks and play with his toys and bones. He is crate trained.


15. Melissa D.
“Melissa is a very responsible and excellent pet caretaker and dog walker. For many years she took care of our mixed breed rescue when we went away on vacations and we never had to worry about anything. She took care of him for weeks at a time. He really enjoyed her and I never had to worry about things being done as directed. I highly recommend Melissa and plan to use her again when needed for our new dog.”


16. Jordan D.

“Jordan was very attentive and great with my dogs. They took to her right away. Would use her again!”

“Jessica has an amazing warmth that pets are drawn to. She’s cared for my fur babies, Nala and Stogie, on multiple occasions, and I have never felt any worry or stress over whether or not they were being properly cared for. And the excitement they display at the sight of her says it all. She’s amazing in caring for them, and they love her.”
