About: I have always had a pet in my house since the day I was born. Mostly dogs, but I have also had other smaller pets. I now have one 12 year old chocolate lab and one 6 year old black lab that I take care of everyday. Because of this I have experience with puppies and older dogs, along with dealing with more than one pet at a time. I currently have school from 10:30-2:15 but I am free anytime before then and after that. I also am available almost every weekend if needed. I have a fenced in yard with a doggy door to get outside and two friendly dogs to keep your pet company. I love to take my pets on walks or just play with them in the house or yard.

“Tess was absolutely wonderful watching my cat for a few days while I was on vacation! She made sure to send me lots of pictures and played with him while she visited!”

About: I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and have two dogs and a cat of my own. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to care for their pets when they're away, and I'm often the first person they call when they need a reliable pet sitter. I treat every animal as if they are my own. I just love animals!! I have a very flexible schedule as I just graduated college and am looking for a full time job. I am available throughout the day, any day of the week typically!! When caring for pets in your home, I will follow their normal routines, make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away.

“Nancy was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs. She was very prompt and efficient with communication. Dogs seemed immediately comfortable with her and she clearly has lots of experience. We look forward to using her again and would highly recommend.”

“Nila was great. Took care of the dogs and gave them extra love and attention. My dogs will miss her care and miss her. She was also great at communication and helping change a little when my plane got delayed.”

“Bonnie took great care of my cat, Dora, while I was away! Having just moved to the area, it was time to start over with a new sitter and I’m very glad to have found Bonnie! She is a great communicator, sent me lots of pictures and texts, and asked questions as they arose. Dora is normally leery of new people, but it was clear from the pics that Dora connected and felt safe safe with her right away! Bonnie was also super flexible with me on a visit time, helping coordinate a package delivery that was accelerated to while I was gone. It was another stress relieved. Thanks for everything, Bonnie! We’ll be reserving again soon!”

“Lauren did an amazing job taking care of my two cat. In the pictures she sent the cats were happy and well taken care of. Thank you Lauren. She is a fantastic sitter.”

About: Our family-owned company has been proudly providing professional pet care services for the past three years. With a lifelong passion for animals and personal experience caring for a variety of beloved pets, we treat every animal as part of our family. As my husband and I currently work from home, we have plenty of time to give your dog the attention they deserve. I’ll ensure regular potty breaks and incorporate playtime throughout the day to keep them happy and active! We have a fully fenced 1-acre yard, providing a spacious and safe area for supervised outdoor play. Indoors, pups are free to be part of our day-to-day home life, relaxing on the couch, napping nearby, and spending time with us, so they truly feel at home. If needed, we can use baby gates to create separate areas to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety. Pups enjoy plenty of outdoor playtime, both in group settings and one-on-one, creating a fun, enriching, and safe environment for all. Daily Routine: Most of the day will include supervised outdoor playtime in our large, fully fenced yard. We spend much of our time outdoors, creating the perfect environment for pups to have fun, explore, and enjoy our assortment of ropes, tug toys, and tennis balls. During warmer weather, with your permission, we also set up puppy/dog pools and a splash pad for them to cool off and have extra fun. We accommodate dogs with different energy levels by rotating playtimes. High-energy pups can run and play to their hearts’ content, while those who prefer a quieter experience can enjoy exploring the yard or sniffing around in a calmer setting. This approach ensures every dog has a safe and enjoyable experience without feeling overwhelmed. Sleeping Arrangements: Our goal is to keep your pup as comfortable and close to their home routine as possible while ensuring a safe environment. If your dog is uncrated at home you can choose family style, where they will sleep with our pack or we can separate them with baby gates as needed. For crate-trained pups, we set up a crate in the kitchen for a comfortable environment! Time Spent with Your Dog: We’ll be home most of the time, giving your pup plenty of attention and care. On rare occasions, we may step out for an hour or two, but the majority of our time is spent ensuring your dog feels safe, loved, and entertained.

“We appreciate Sarah so much! She’s been caring for our cat for a few years now during trips and we never have to worry about anything. She’s reliable, communicative and so easy to work with.”

About: I have experience taking care of dogs for years. I’ve taken care of every dog age (puppy-elder) by taking them on walks/jogs, feeding, bathing, and simply just spending time with them so they don’t get lonely:) Pet care is a consistent part of my routine. I’m partially responsible for three family pets on top of having a cat of my own, so I’m always managing feeding, check ins, and general upkeep. I also have experience with longer term care, a week or more, so I’m comfortable taking on full responsibility when needed. I’m willing to take dogs on walks/jogs to get some exercise in, feed them when needed, spend time playing with them and keeping them company, take them outside to do their business when needed.

About: I currently work as a caretaker at a dog daycare center, where I care for dogs with a wide range of personalities, temperaments, and play styles every day. Whether your dog is super energetic, anxious, older, or just needs a little extra patience and attention, I’m more than comfortable adapting to their needs. I’ve also worked as a farmhand, helping feed and care for animals like chickens and other livestock. I’ve also been around animals my whole life and currently care for a cat, an elderly black lab, and a young hound puppy. I’m a college student hoping to earn extra cash doing something I genuinely love! I treat every animal like one of my best friends and always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Weekdays: Available after 1:30 PM for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. Weekends: Usually fully available for walks, house sitting, overnight stays, and extended care. I’m a Dog Daycare worker during the weekdays, so my services may be limited to the afternoon + evenings from Monday-Friday. With dogs, I’m very patient and comfortable with all personalities, including high-energy, excitable, or anxious dogs. I focus on calm and respectful handling and try to help very anxious dogs feel safe by giving them space, approaching slowly, and using gentle reassurance like calm voice and light petting on their side when appropriate. I pay attention to body language and always aim to build trust rather than pressure them into an interaction. If a dog is acting out, I redirect their attention and follow any training or behavior instructions provided by the owner. With cats, I’m used to reading their behavior and giving them the space or attention they want. I understand that many cats are super independent and are protective about their space, but I also enjoy working with affectionate, social cats. I have experience caring for kittens, including feeding and basic hands-on care, as well as senior cats who may need routine medication or any extra attention.

“Olivia was so great with my pups! One is super clingy and needy and demanding for the love all of the time and an older male dog who pretty much hates everyone and everything and wears diapers and has incontinence issues - and she was amazing with them! They both were loved well, fed well, she even got my grumpy gus out for (short) walks, kept the house pee free and him diapered, and I'm thrilled with how happy the dogs were when we got home after being gone for a few days. I also loved how well she stayed in contact with us so we could see our pups throughout the day(s) that were gone. We will definitely be using Olivia again! (Thank you Olivia for taking such great care of our babies!)”

“Colleen did an excellent job dropping in on our dog while we were away for the weekend. The text updates on how our dog was doing and what she did during the visits was much appreciated! Colleen is a true dog lover!”

About: Hello, I'm Erin, a wife, mom, and proud pet owner in Point of Rocks, MD! I grew up with a variety of pets, including cats, dogs, birds, and rabbits. I currently have two rescue cats, Baby and George, and two birds, who are the joys of our family. I grew up petsitting for neighbors, and I have done a lot of volunteer work with the Humane Society. I also worked at Petsmart in college helping take care of pets for the groomers. One of the best jobs I've ever had! I love animals and will provide that love and care to your pets. No more worrying about your pets while you work or go on vacation! I'm semi-retired from my old job and I am currently available most days and times! I am very flexible and will let you know well in advance when I'll be unavailable. I will play with, feed, walk, and provide companionship for your pet in your home! I can currently take care of small dogs in my home as well.

“Hailey is a fantastic pet sitter! We have used her twice now, and even though our kitty is shy and doesn’t come out, Hailey makes sure she is well taken care of when we’re gone. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for quality pet care.”

“Erin is fabulous! She loves animals and my two bengal cats took to her right away. She goes the extra mile to make sure they get whatever they need. I could enjoy our trip knowing Erin was taking care of our boys. Thanks Erin!”
