“Shemoy was wonderful! We have had bad experiences with Rover dog sitters in the past, but she made us feel very at ease while watching our dog. She was very responsive and reliable. She even left the sweetest Christmas treats for my dog. You can tell she really cares about animals. I will definitely book with her again.”

“Linda was awesome. Sadie was relaxed and happy while in her care. It was nice to go on vacation and know that Sadie was being well cared for. I would recommend Linda to anyone who wants their pet to stay home while they are gone. I will definitely request Linda again if we go away.”

“Katie is incredible! She's wonderful with our two pups (one with special needs), kept me informed throughout the day while being respectful of my meeting schedule, administered medicine, and was a joy to have in the house. She gave us such peace of mind, and we're already looking for more dates to use her. Such a gem!”

Laci S.

“I highly recommend Kathleen for anyone looking for in home or not care. Kathleen allowed us to take a wonderful holiday vacation knowing our 16 year old boy with Kidney issues would be well loved and cared for as she sent pictures daily and was always available for a checkin. Kathleen also took care of our home and eneded her stay as if she had never lived their for 10 days. Just amazing! We were pleased more than we ever thought we would be. Highly recommend this wonderful gal who we did just meet as she came 3 times prior to my trip to ease my nerves. Real gem and she and her family are great with animals. Katu was comfortable right away, which is unusual. Thank you Kathleen. You are our sitter for Katu! Happy New Year! Loved your family Christmas card! Thank you so much!”

“I reached out to Gabi last minute because I had to go out of town for a sick family member. She was able to come and stay with my baby on very short notice and even came back for a few walks when I needed some additional support. She stayed in constant communication and was super helpful. I would definitely use her again!”

Melissa R.

“Kathleen is an incredibly considerate and attentive dog sitter. We have worked with her many times and we always had an excellent experience!!”

About: Hi! My name is Mariaeva, but you can call me Eva! I have two dogs of my own. A 10 year old sheltie mix and a 5 year old aussie mix. I adopted the aussie mix when he was only a few months old so I'm familiar with puppies, their mess, and the high energy. My oldest, the sheltie mix, takes anti-seizure medication and he's been on it for a few years. I am now able to identify the signs and symptoms of when a seizure is occurring and how to handle emergency situations that require an action plan. I understand every dog is different and I'm a quick learner so I'll provide the best care needed for your fur baby! I also know the importance of administering medication on-time everyday to stay on schedule! Since my dogs are crate trained I understand how needed is good walk or play time after a long time of being cooped up. I have also found different ways, games and more, to stimulate them inside the home. I've even trained them to follow a few commands and tricks, I'd be more than happy to share these with you! A few years back, I adopted a cat and fostered him until we found him a home. Since then, I fell in love with cats and started taking care of my friends/family's cats to learn more about them. I plan to eventually get a cat of own to provide someone a forever home. 🐱 I am looking for a full time job, since I just relocated to the area so my schedule is pretty flexible at the moment. My profession as an Executive Assistant taught me all about the importance of lists, reminders and excel sheets. The more instructions you provide to take care of your fur baby, the better! PS: I also speak Spanish for those bilingual pets, like my own! :) Since I'm currently applying for jobs my schedule is pretty flexible. I'm also a huge planner so communication is key when it comes to my schedule. Since every home and every pet is different I trust that you'll be able to provide me with details on what's required of me to take care of both your home and your fur baby. I'll make sure to ask as many questions as needed to make sure I provide the best care.

“Leah was wonderful! Our pups loved her! This is the first time we’ve had a pet sitter, so we were a little nervous but she eased our worries. She was very prompt with messaging and gave us lots of updates! We will absolutely book her again!”

About: I've had and taken care of a dog since I was 7 years old. Dogs were always a part of our family life. In my family and friend group I am the go-to person for pet sitting and puppy walks. I recently participated with a trainer from Ultimate K9 training in Southern Maryland with my own pup Russel who passed with flying colors and both he and I learned many new skills and tricks. Working with dogs is one of the loves of my life. I typically work a 7-5 shift at my day job but do have some flexibility during the day that I can use for a pup break. Evenings I am consistently available after 5pm. Weekend work is not a problem and I am open to helping support your much needed getaway. Love is always the first ingredient but of course we respect puppy boundaries as set by the puppy parents or how comfortable the pup is until they feel comfortable. Meals are fed to pups at the same time to make sure they are not feeling favoritism. Belly rubs and play time are also important for bonding and trust. I will send images of pets daily if the pet parent would like. Just let me know.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since 12. My family have relied on me to walk, play, and bathe their pets. I’m very playful with pets to keep them entertained & enjoy cuddling with them also. I’m a student in high school and work part time on weekends. This fits my schedule on weekdays being able to finish class and have free time after I have a fenced yard, and much attention to give. I keep an clean and safe environment for anyone especially from keeping dangerous chemicals away at all times.

About: - Worked on a farm taking care of animals. Livestock dogs, barn cats, cows, sheep, etc. - volunteered at rehab facilities caring for lost dogs/cats and finding homes for them. - Volunteered at marine rehabilitation organizations - pet sat for all my neighbors growing up. To include birds as well. I’m currently a full time student and a coast guard veteran on my next step in life. I’d love to spend this transitional period making peoples lives easier and providing company and care to their pets in the meantime. I do not offer housing to pets as I have 2 cats a dog and chickens unless I have prior experience with your pet and know its behaviors. I can come anytime of day 7 days a week to walk, feed/water and have playtime with your animals.

“A wonderful sitter! She did fantastic with all our pets!”

About: I’ve had different types of animals my whole life and I’ve always loved caring for them. I used to baby sit my cousin dog a lot and it would usually last a week or so. I definitely have no problem taking care of your furry friends!! Pet care fits into my daily weekly routine since I wake up early for work and get back early as well. I’m open on the weekends and I love to walk! So they will definitely get their walks in. I have a bird and he gets to come out and stretch his wings he does get feed daily along with his water being changed daily. I would definitely do the same for anyone’s pet and make sure they are taken care of and have food and water and make sure they are getting out to exercise and use the potty.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember — I’ve had everything from hermit crabs and frogs to cats and dogs since I was a kid! Friends, family, and even my coaches have always trusted me to take them on a walk and petsit. I also worked on a farm where I helped bathe dogs and care for all kinds of animals. I’m comfortable giving medicine, trimming nails, and making bath time fun and easy. I treat every pet like my own — with lots of love, patience, and attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or snuggles, your pets will be in caring, reliable hands. I’m a full-time college student with a flexible schedule that allows plenty of time for pet care! On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I have morning classes but long breaks from 10:30–12:30 that are perfect for walks or potty breaks. Tuesdays and Thursdays I’m done with class by early afternoon, giving me lots of time for drop-ins, playtime, or longer walks. Weekends are completely open, so I’m very flexible for house sitting or extended visits. No matter what my day looks like, I always make time for animals — spending time with pets is honestly one of my favorite ways to take a break from studying! When I’m caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions closely — from feeding schedules and walks to playtime and bedtime routines — so your pet feels safe and cared for while you’re away. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, and I always keep their space clean and cozy. I’m comfortable giving medication if needed and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands.

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life and truly love being around pets of every size and personality. I’m patient, gentle, and confident with all breeds from small dogs and seniors to high-energy pups and big lovable goofballs. I live with dogs and a cat of my own, so I understand how important routine, comfort, and trust are. I give every pet the same love, attention, and care I give my own. Caring for pets is naturally built into my day because I already have animals of my own. I plan my mornings, afternoons, and evenings around walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I’m very flexible, so I can adjust my schedule to match your pet’s routine and needs Safety and trust come first. In your home, I follow your routines exactly—feeding schedules, walk routes, crate rules, and any house preferences. I always keep doors locked, double-check leashes and harnesses, and never rush a pet. I give each animal a calm, loving environment where they feel safe and understood.
