“Christina did a wonderful job dropping in to see my girls. She paid attention to detail and provided reports that made me feel like I didn’t miss anything. They can be a lot to handle and she did well!”


“Courtney and Lily were wonderful hosts for Tuley and were even able to accommodate our last minute request. I can’t say enough great things about Courtney - she’s kind, caring and treats my dog as if she were her own. She’s also flexible so pick up and drop offs are super easy. I can’t recommend her enough. And I say that as someone with a dog that can be reserved around new people and dogs. While Tuley has met Courtney before and absolutely loves her, this was her first time meeting Lily. Tuley was a bit unsure of Lily’s puppy energy at first, but Tuley warmed up to Lily pretty quickly. I know they had a blast at the dog park and playing all weekend long, because Tuley fell asleep as soon as we got home. I’ll definitely be sending Tuley to Courtney’s next time we travel.”

“Kyle was great to work with. He clearly prides himself on consistent communication, and he got along really well with our two cats and was a total pro at covering their needs, including administering meds. We got informative updates, good photos, and two happy healthy kitties at the door when we returned!”

“Annah is honestly hands down the best cat sitter ever. She knew all of Bee’s favorite toys and gave him the attention he craved. She would be my first choice in the future to look after my precious Bee!”

“Victoria, her son and their friend make a reliable team. The drop in visits were at the time agreed upon, they stayed for the full 30 minutes, fed, played with and cleaned up after the dogs. I’m very satisfied with their care.”

About: I’ve had multiple dogs in my lifetime. I’ve taken care of friends and neighbors dogs before. I currently have a pug named Franky who is constantly praised for his behavior I’m currently unemployed/working part time remotely so I have all the free time in the world. I have a dog of my own so it shouldn’t be an issue incorporating a friend into the routine I will provide lots of love and attention. Plays games when they want, but also respect them when they want to sleep. Safety is my number 1 priority
“Dominick was a lifesaver. We reached out last minute and he responded quickly, showed up on time, and managed both our dogs without any issues. Reliable, communicative, and easy to work with.”

“Pilar is awesome! She is great at communicating and left a very detailed report of her time with our puppy after each visit. She is also great at being patient with our puppy. We are definitely hoping to book with Pilar again!”

About: I’m a dog dad of 3, I’ve grown up around all animals. I love my children and I want to be able to help people take care of theirs if they need it. Sometimes I like to bring my wife along to help, if you’re not okay with this please let me know and I’ll make sure it’s only me. I’m currently going to online school which leaves me with a lot of extra time for extra work such as Rover. Outside of taking care of my own babies. I am able to do stop in visits to take care of your fur babies for either a walk, to let them out, or to give them company for some time if they need it.
“Kasia took such great care of Macaroni! Mac was always so happy to see her. I know my pup was in kind and caring hands with Kasia. I really appreciated the pictures and notes from her visits.”

About: I’ve been working closely with dogs since I was four years old. We moved around a lot growing up and I would always helped her readjust to feel safe in new areas. I would get to know neighbors’ and friends’ pets, and with this early life experience, I’m a natural at getting pets to feel comfortable with me. I have experience working with senior dogs and dogs in recovery from injury, as well as dogs who have been rescued or traumatized by scary situations. I am currently in school, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I typically have 1-2 classes per weekday, either in the morning or at night, leaving the majority of my schedule open for pet care. I always make sure pets’ emotional needs are taken care of. For example, I pay very close attention to body language. At home, if my dog is ever purposefully ignoring me, I check with her to see if something is wrong.

“Landy is not only a wonderful person but you can tell she loves animals. My cat can be very stand fish to new people and immediately fell in love with Landy after the first visit. She also was very accommodating with my needs of pick up and drop off of my keys, just a wonderful wonderful sitter!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have always loved being around them! I have three dogs and a cat of my own, all with different personalities; from happy-go-lucky to a little shy. I love walks, exploring new (and old) places, and playtime with pups. I treat every dog like family, so your furry friend will get all the love, attention, and care they deserve while with me! I work from home on Tuesdays and Fridays, and I’m usually home by 5:30 the rest of the weekdays. I’m available most weekends, so please reach out! I follow each pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’m experienced caring for multiple pets at once and dogs of all sizes, including large breeds.
About: Hi! I’m a rising sophomore at Virginia Tech with a flexible schedule from working part time. I love dogs and have experience helping friends walk, feed, and care for their pets. I’m reliable, patient, and will make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I enjoy staying active and spending time with dogs. I help babysit for a family daily from 3–6 PM, but outside of that I have a very flexible schedule and can be available at different times throughout the day. I love staying active and enjoy going on walks with dogs, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’ve always loved dogs and enjoy spending time playing with them and taking them on walks. I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy.

“Jordan was amazing with our energetic puppy, Cooper! She always made sure to update us and sent pictures during each visit. Jordan took care of Cooper like he was her own puppy. So glad we found her and will definitely be using her services again! 100% recommend Jordan!”

About: Hi!! My name is Maddie and I am currently a junior at Miami University home for break!! I am a HUGE animal lover and have had multiple dogs my entire life as well as other smaller pets that have been my responsibility since I've been younger. I have a crazy long winter break and would love to help out whenever and however I can! Text or call me :)) I'll be in Maryland for the end of December through January and have a SUPER flexible schedule so I'm free whenever you might need some help! I always walk my dog on leash as well as only let her off in our fenced in backyard. We let her roam around our house but let me know what you guys need and I'm happy to follow whatever rules/restrictions you might already have for your dog!!
“Rachel took great care of my 2 cats while I was out of town. She made sure to keep me updated after each visit and sent me adorable pictures. Would definitely recommend using Rachel!”

Ana took great care of our 13 year old Sheltie and our cat. It was a pleasure to meet with her and from the moment they met Ana, our pets took a liking to her and felt comfortable. She kept us up to date with daily messages and was very responsive and trustworthy. We highly recommend Ana and will certainly like to use her petcare services again in the near future.
