“Jennifer is an excellent and reliable individual to hire for all your pet walking and sitting needs! Always on time, responds to messages quickly, and puts in the extra work to show care for animals above and beyond a walk.”
About: I grew up fostering animals from the Humane Society of Harford County, caring for animals with the range of young puppies/kittens to senior dogs/cats. And, yes, I’ve “foster-failed” a few times, and have multiple cats and dogs of my own. A house isn’t a home without a fur baby. I am a middle-school teacher who currently has full availability now that summer vacation has begun. I’d love to fill my time off by caring for your four-legged friends! Fostering animals with a variety of backgrounds, training levels, capabilities, etc., has given me a lot of experience with creating a safe and happy environment.
“I can't say enough great things about Sarah. She is definitely on our top list of dog walkers. She is friendly, on time, and so genuine. She loved our dog and he loved her right back. Sarah took on extra walks to help our family at the last minute. I highly recommend Sarah and am grateful I found her.”

I will never bring my own dog to your home without direct permission. I try my best to leave any house better than how I found it.

About: I am an avid dog lover and owner. I have had a dog in my life since I was 11. I’ve owned a lab, a mini-Aussie, an Aussie rescue and a golden retriever. I often pet sit for friends because I just love dogs. My 3 sons are also big dog lovers and enjoy playing with them. I am off during the summer, and if we aren’t on vacation, I am happy bringing dogs wherever we go. I just love dogs During the school year, I’m more limited on time devoted to puppy sitting. Dogs would be uncrated, unless you provide one, for 6-8 hours. However, in the summer, I have more time and flexibility. Dogs stay in our upstairs, have access to water and toys, and can lay on our couch. We feed our golden 2x per day. Dogs also typically sleep in our room and have access to a dog bed. They get lots of love and daily walks .

About: I grew up with both dogs and cats and have always loved animals. I have house sat and dog sat before and always treat other people’s animals like my own. I’m a registered nurse so I am patient, conscientious, and reliable. I’m a registered nurse and work 3-12hr night shifts a week. I usually have free time during the day on weekdays when most people are at work. I’m also comfortable with pet care later at night, as I stay up late. Early mornings are not usually good for me unless I am coming home from working overnight. I always make sure to treat other people’s pets and homes with respect. I treat all animal’s like they are my own pet. I love spending time with them. I make sure not to give them anything that they shouldn’t eat and to keep anything potentially dangerous completely put away where it can’t accidentally be reached by an animal.
