About: I have been an animal caretaker for the past 4 years back in my home town in Maryland. But moving to college I miss the joy of taking care of animals. I have taken care of birds, cats, and even bunnies. But I mostly took care of large dogs I also am well versed in taking care of smaller dogs as well as puppies and seniors. I’m currently a full time university student-athlete. I tend to be busy in the morning but am mostly free in the afternoons and evenings. I do travel a bit for games and for holidays. I take care of pets in your home. I will take your dogs on walks. Do potty breaks, feedings, and providing quality time with your animal.
“Samantha was wonderful! She accommodated my last minute request and also did a great job with our anxious new rescue dog. She left thorough notes and photos for us. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Susan has been absolutely fantastic as a dog walker! She is reliable, punctual, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. My dog immediately felt comfortable with her, which gave me great peace of mind. She always provides updates after walks and goes the extra mile to make sure my dog is happy and well cared for.”
“Rene did an outstanding job taking care of my cat Max! She was always on time, fed him and gave him his medication, and lots of attention. Everything was neat and tidy when we returned as well. We will definitely be booking with Rene again in the future!”
“Sara went above and beyond taking care of things while we were gone(animals, mail, dehumidifier). I’m sure our animals are going to miss her special treats and attention now that we are home. We will absolutely be asking her to help with the animals in the future!”
“Cecilia was great ! very responsive and committed, she genuinely cared about taking good care of our cat, and my shy cat warmed up to her. Would definitely recommend and book her services again when needed.”
“Ken is fantastic with Nikki, and always reliable, prompt, and a pleasure to have watching over my pooch while I’m away, so I can relax knowing she’s being well cared for. Highly recommend Ken!”
“Jessica did a great job with our three cats! She sent us lots of photos, played with our two kittens, and we came home to a clean house and happy kitties. Definitely recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Having pets myself, my oldest dog being 11, I have experience in taking care of senior dogs but I also have a 3 y/o and have raised puppies myself so I am aware of everything that requires a young pup to a senior. I’m working part-time because of college so I would love to enjoy some more time with dogs!!! I am home almost everyday and don’t usually go out so I love being at home with my doggy’s! I have two friendly dogs, 1 a senior pup so he isn’t much involved and another 3 year old who loves meeting new friends and he needs friends to play with!! I also have a small fenced backyard which my dogs use to always go outside
“Meg is fabulous! She spent great quality time with our social kitty. She was easy to work with and communicated with pictures at each stop in. Definitely recommend her for your family.”
“Sheila was wonderful! She left detailed notes that reassured me that my pups were doing well and took the time to bring my shy dog out of her shell. I will definitely request her services again next time!”
“Antonia is great with our cats. She makes sure to see them every time. She has also dealt with issues admirably when they do occur. Thankfully we haven’t had too many, but I feel like our cats are in good hands with her.”
“We had Lexie do drop in visits twice a day to care for our geriatric special needs kitty. I would definitely hire her again, Malachi was very happy to have such great care while we were gone!”
