About: Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. Friends, neighbors, and loved ones have all sought my care for many years for both their dogs and cats. Being a teacher, I have the entire summer to help care for pets, so choose me for your pet care needs! I have very open availability for walks, daily care, and overnight care. I work as an elementary school teacher during the majority of the year, but my summers are completely free! Each pet and each household is different, so catering to the needs of each pet is a priority. Following diet instructions, making sure pets get proper play and exercise time, and lots and lots of love are all priorities of mine.

“Anna took wonderful care of River while we were away. The communication was excellent. She was highly responsive and made accommodations for us and for River, going above and beyond. We also loved the pictures, and you could see how much she bonded with River immediately. She made us feel very comfortable the entire time we were gone. Would absolutely use her again.”


“Dajon is absolutely AMAZING! We just moved into our new condo and the first time we were leaving Styles as well as the first time we used Rover. In viewing all of the pics Dajon sent, Styles had a great time and we were worry free! Dajon is timely, dependable, and a great communicator! We will definitely use him again!!”


“Michelle was perfect. She was so sweet and loving. We had a meeting before hand to make sure she was comfortable with our crew and it went great you can tell she has a big heart for animals. Our kitty Callie has some special needs and hasn't been feeling great she was really understanding and accommodating. We will definitely use Michelle for our pets again!”


About: I have cared for a good amount of dogs, mine included who me and my family have had for about 7 years. I have dog sat for many of my family friends. Those include some older dogs and some puppies. I am able to administer medication for dogs that need it. As well as play and assist with training younger dogs who have a bunch of energy. I currently work part-time as a school recruiter and am also a part time college student. I am typically available after 6pm on week days, Wednesdays I am completely free and Thursdays I am available after 4pm. I am completely free on weekends. Back home I care for my dog by taking her out on walks around the neighborhood and feeding her at certain times in the day. When I dog sit for others I typically spend the night at their house if needed and take them outside and feed them. I also play with them when their indoor or outdoor. I have administered meds for some dogs and am pretty successful and comfortable with doing if needed.

About: I'm a recently retired law enforcement officer who loves dogs of all kinds. My wife and I moved out to Baltimore to give our pets a lot more space, and we all love it here! I've cared for my dogs, my friends' dogs, and dogs from work (the bomb seeking waggy-tailed dogs, not apprehension dogs) for decades. I provide the highest level of trustworthiness and attention to detail in all the services I provide. I'm happy to hear what you want out of your visits and provide exactly that! My experience in training both home dogs and work dogs has provided me with a great deal of knowledge and love for dogs of all sizes. Because I'm retired, I have a great deal of flexibility in my schedule, and because I'm still young and healthy and my own dogs are high energy pooches, I'm excited to meet your dog and give them just the amount of care and exercise they need. I've raised and cared for many different types of dogs and met many types of dog owners, and the main focus I bring to pet care is customization. Each dog needs different things, some just need to be let out out and pet a little bit, others need to burn a LOT of energy. Some owners like 10 pictures of your visits and hear about every potty, and others just want to rest assured their pet and their home will be exactly like they left it. My wife and I give our dogs a crazy amount of love and attention. We fenced in several acres for them, let them in the pool, have birthday parties for them, and take them everywhere we can! That's the type of care and attention I'll bring to your pet as well.

“This is the 3rd time Selena has watched our 2 dogs in our home. She’s been super communicative with us and responsive to their needs. We will definitely be using her again !”


About: I bring personal experience, genuine care, and versatility to every pet I look after. I currently care for my senior dog at home, so I understand the extra love, patience, and attention older pets need—whether it's administering medication, assisting with mobility, or just offering a calm presence. I also have experience with both big and small dogs, and I’m comfortable handling different energy levels, temperaments, and routines. Whether your pet loves long walks, snuggles on the couch, or anything in between, I adapt to their needs. In addition to dogs, I’m also comfortable caring for small animals like guinea pigs and understand their unique care routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and provide regular updates so you can feel confident while you're away. I am a currently a college student with a a fully remote internship so I can provide the time and attention your dog needs while you're away. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely to keep your pet comfortable and safe in their familiar environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, medication, playtime, or just company, I make sure your pet feels cared for and not alone while you're away. I’m also respectful of your space, keeping things tidy and secure. For pets with special needs, like senior dogs or small animals/fish, I take extra time to make sure they’re safe and happy. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I’ve had a dog ever since I was born. I currently have 5 dogs and 3 cats. All different ages, sizes and breeds! Pets are family, I hope you trust me with yours! Im currently out of work for the summer - so I am completely free and willing to help out whenever needed. even last minutes work! Caring for an animal in the animals own home, i will ensure a safe and trustworthy environment by following the rules the owners leave, not doing anything different or changing routine, but sticking to the owners routine and keeping a close eye on the pet!

“Great sitter! Super friendly and our pets were well cared for.”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet owner with experience caring for cats and dogs. I have experience with puppy training, crate training, and using positive reinforcement to help pets feel safe and confident. I have reliable transportation and a genuine love for animals of all kinds, so you can count on me to give your pets the care and attention they deserve while you’re away. I’m a veteran teacher and a single mom of teenagers with a lifelong love for animals and years of experience caring for pets of all kinds. I am available on a daily basis to offer dependable, loving care for your pets while you’re away. Whether it’s daily visits, playtime, feeding, or just some company for your furry friend, you can count on me to show up with patience, kindness, and attention to detail. When caring for pets in my home, I ensure they have a safe, comfortable environment with a small, fenced-in patio for outdoor time. I’m careful to follow any dietary restrictions and maintain routines to minimize stress. Whether it’s cleaning litter boxes, giving pets their needed playtime, or reinforcing training, I create a calm, trusting atmosphere where pets feel secure. In your home, I follow the same principles—respecting your pet’s space, routines, and safety while providing them with the attention they need. You can trust that I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they feel loved, cared for, and safe.

When you meet her, ask her about releasing baby turtles to the ocean in Mexico and watch her eyes light up with excitement! I’ve seen her with all types of pets - from cuddly baby kittens to large full grown dogs to iguanas and parakeets, She will care for your beloved pets with careful attention to their individual needs and they will be showered with gentle attention and loving care. You couldn’t ask for a better person to look after your fur babies!”

Emma was great with Maeve! Sent me updates and pics/videos. Maeve had a great time and I hope Emma will be available next time I need a sitter!

Selena took great care of my pup while I was away on vacation. She was prompt with giving me updates and shared photos over the weekend. Would totally recommend her and will be seeing if she’s available in the future!!! :)

Bailey took incredible care of our boy, Archie! She stayed at our home, allowed Archie to stick to his schedule and sent so many fun pictures to keep me updated the whole time. I barely trust anyone with my fur baby and Bailey made it soooo easy! Absolute best sitter there is and will use her for future stays!

Elizabeth had so much to handle with all our geriatric giant dogs and cats and she did a great job. She always goes above and beyond for us. Thanks so much Elizabeth!

Abi went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were taken care of. Excellent service and very transparent communication!

We interviewed Angela before we hired her and when we were sitting on the couch with Emma and she turned around to put her head in Angela!s lap we knew she was the one to hire. Also when Angela came to pick up a house key Emma got up off the couch to great her which is unusual for her because she is such a house potato.😁. She she did a fantastic job.
