Pet Sitting in Ridgedale

“Our kittie cat, Katie, loves Jen! We are repeat clients of hers, and she is just the best. You won't go wrong inviting her to take care of your fur baby.”

About: I've been surrounded by furry friends my whole life. Chores in my early life included taking care of my childhood cats and dogs. I also have experience raising a litter of pups and caring for senior dogs with special needs. After college, I began raising my own dog, Birdie. My dog and I love adventuring outside in the woods and I am on a mission to visit 12 National Parks with her during her lifetime. Whether it's park romps, creek runs, or nail trims, I'm a pro at keeping dog companions happy and healthy. I'm currently in between jobs, so I have plenty of availability in July, August, and September 2025. I will keep my profile updated with my availablility. I am available for house sitting, as well as early morning (before 8a), midday (11a-1p), or evening (after 4p) visits. Please reach out for scheudling Winter Holiday pet care. My daily routine starts with letting the dog out to use the restroom, then she gets fed, and then I start my day. We walk at least once a day and we try and get to the local park as often as we can (because smells in the neighborhood get boring). My nightly routine consists of letting the dog out one more time (just in case), then brushing my teeth and tucking myself into bed beside the dog, who usually gets her own pillow. Boarding services can be offered with my current living situation, however, two cats will be present (both have lived with dogs their whole life), along with my dog (she is quite friendly and loves to play keep-away with other furry friends). The yard is large and unfenced with a huge amount of woods out back. There is an outdoor kennel with a doghouse. My dog hates it but yours might like it. I have plenty of experience walking two dogs at once, so no problem taking Birdie and your dog on a walk together.

About: I've had pets all my life cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, Bunnies, and taken car of horses. I love animals and am not afraid of their messes. During the summer I have plenty of time to take care of pets though during the school year certain times of day I won't be available due to classes. I've learned to come at pets with the caution they need. I'm very friendly and always want to be sweet to pets but I can be tough if the situation calls for it to not let animals walk all over me. I love animals and like taking the time for their needs.

About: Should have heeded my original calling to be a vet but instead, I've made a life around animals by taking care of a variety of animals all my life from cats and dogs to farm animals and birds. I also have vast experience with pet-sitting for friends and neighbors. I'm currently working flexible hours from home and can offer care for your pet in your home or mine and am able to do overnight sitting as well as offer morning or evening care. I live in the country and have a friendly lab that is vaccinated and dog-friendly/cat-friendly, and house cats that think all dogs are their friends. Can also utilize a crate if preferred.

“Very accommodating! Excellent communication, very professional!”

About: I have hands-on experience raising and training three dogs of my own, currently aged 2, 3, and 4. I’ve cared for them since they were puppies, handling everything from basic obedience training to daily walks, feeding, grooming, and socialization. I’m a nursing student home for the summer and looking for a fun, active way to earn extra income. I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes. Whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood or some playtime in the yard, your pup will be in good hands! Your pup will be cared for in a safe, loving environment at my home, which has a fully fenced-in yard perfect for play and exercise. Dogs are always supervised and treated like family whether we’re enjoying outdoor time or relaxing inside, your dog will feel right at home.

“Chaz is amazing. Our boys love her. She is reliable, honest, and cares about the animals in her care.”

“Katie was great with our big dogs - her notes and pics left us reassured they were taken care of. Her communication and service were timely. Would recommend!”

About: I have taken care of my own pets, neighbors pets and my grand cat and dogs. My grand dogs are very energetic Huskies! I love animals. I love walking dogs or taking them to the doggie park. I enjoy throwing balls, sticks and whatever else they bring to me and playing tug a war with dogs and of course giving and getting doggie love. I enjoy cat cuddles, playing chase the laser with cats or just sitting with a cat in my lap and listening to it purr. I am retired. I am available anytime. I live in a quiet neighborhood with a large fenced in backyard. I am located between the Westwrn MD scenic RR and the Potomac Eagle Scenic RR which makes it convenient for us to host your fur babies while you enjoy scenic views of our beautiful mountains and towns. I have a large 4 Ft high-fenced in backyard. Lots of trees for shade and plenty of room to run. We live in a secluded area where walks are quiet and trails are plentiful.

About: Hello! I’ve had a dog through my entire life. I have experience with puppies as well as elderly dogs. I also am experience in handling deaf and blind dogs, as my dog has these impairments. I currently work full time while in law school part time. I am available after 4:00pm on weekdays. On the weekends, I can be flexible. Just shoot me a message! I have one small dog who is house trained. We take her for walks around our neighborhood or leash her in the yard. She will remain away from any animals that I would be caring for as she is a very old girl.

About: I'm a very active person! My puppy Maverick and I walk at Rocky Gap 2-3 days a week. I watch multiple of my friends and family’s dogs when they go places or trips or just because! i’m currently working part-time, so my afternoons are dedicated to your pets during the week! My availability during the weekends depends as i use that time to take trips and have some time off! My yard is currently under construction, but that doesn't stop playing and walking! My puppy and I go for a walk everyday, whether it’s just around the neighborhood, Rocky gap, the dog park… we are on the move. I give all the pets and kisses as wanted. Im constantly working with my pup and refreshing his mind with his tricks and commands and i would definitely do the same for yours!

“Misty did an excellent job. I had no worries the entire time I was out of town. My cat loved her and I will be rebooking Misty in the future.”

“Alexzaundra was right on it when I sprung on her a last minute drop by. Thanks for being flexible!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12 years old. I grew up in a neighborhood so it wasn’t hard to find people who needed pet care. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me for overnight, boarding, walking and feeding. I am not currently working full time so I have plenty of free time to take care of your pets. It will switch to evenings and weekends once I start work again. Neighbors have always trusted me to be in their homes and with their pets. I have watched them for weeks at a time so this required being unsupervised with access to the property

“Awesome job and very flexible as my needs kept changing, highly recommend.”

“VIctoria was amazing! Our dogs are rescues and came from abusive situations, so they dont normally take well to strangers and they warmed up to her, which is huge in our book! She is so patient and has a great love for animals. Communicates well and goes above and beyond! I will gladly use her services again and highly recommend!”

About: When I was a kid my twin and I started a dog walking business in our neighborhood. We walked dogs of all sizes, house sat for cats, dogs, and other animals, and did drop by visits. I have cared for many animals and have a lot of professional hands-on experience. I also own my own dog and have had cats my whole life. I have extensive experience with medical needs as all of my animals have intricate medical needs and chronic conditions. I care for senior animals as well as puppies and kittens! I'm working part time and most of my work is completely remote and flexible so I have lots of time to dedicate to your beloved animals! I'm very detail oriented so feel free to leave me lots of instructions so that I can continue caring for your pet as if you were there yourself!

About: I’ve taken care of cats for a year but I also had a cat growing up. When I did have 2 cats they were my world. I enjoyed every minute when I had them. I’m very passionate about caring for cats. I was working full time at the hospital but I’m free every day Monday-Friday until I get the job that I want but after I get that job I’m still available I don’t have a fenced back yard but my neighbor is a pet friendly environment. I’m near a park that is safe for animals as well.

About: I have owned my own personal animals for the past 6 years, I have 3 dogs (all beautiful muts) and 8 cats. Aside from having my own furry kids, I've also worked in animal rescue for a little over 4 years. This job field has given me so much experience working with every sort of dog breed, and any cat temperament. I currently work a full time job Monday-Thursday but I would love to be more involved in the animal field again. With me having fridays off I feel this is a great opportunity to spend time helping others and hanging out with animals! Since I do have my own animals, I will not be able to provide in home care. However, I will be more than happy to set something up with you to do care for your pets in their own home!
