House Sitting in Ripley

About: I have always been around animals whether they were my own or someone else’s. I have also shadowed at vet clinics and done kenneling briefly at a clinic. I love spending time with pets and taking care of them. I am a college student who is currently studying biology, I then plan to go to vet school. So over the summer and holiday breaks I have plenty of time to care for pets. If they are on a feeding schedule I follow that schedule. I’m also very active myself and love being out side. If it’s nice out I’ll take your animal out to play and walk.

“Ashley was wonderful with our two dogs! She was communicative, reliable, and clearly cared for them so well. We felt completely at ease while we were away. She kept us updated, followed our instructions, and gave the dogs lots of love and attention. We came home to two happy, relaxed pups. We’d absolutely recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter!”

“Grace did a fantastic and professional job house and dog sitting for us. She was able to help us with a last minute request and did so well with our dog. She had awesome communication with details and pictures. She was also extremely prompt with responses and kept beautiful care of the home. We initially thought our dog would be okay left alone, but when those needs changed Grace didn’t mind a bit. We will absolutely be using her again in the future and cannot recommend her enough.”

“Morgan took great care of our two 100+ lb mastiffs and elderly 5lb cat over the July 4th weekend. The house was left in perfect shape. The animals were happy, minimally stressed even after a night of fireworks, and had zero complaints. Morgan kept us informed all throughout the booking of the animal's welfare and activities. A++, would book again.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors who trusted me with their furry family members. In addition to years of hands-on experience, I also spent 4 years working in the veterinary field as a veterinary assistant/technician, giving me the knowledge and confidence to care for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. Additionally I have fostered for local rescues, litters of puppies to senior pups, all with individual needs. Whether your pet needs extra patience, medication administration, senior support, or just lots of love and attention, I’m committed to providing safe, compassionate, and reliable care every step of the way. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time for lots of snuggles and walks. I am able to stop by for quick check-ins or stay for a few hours to get those afternoon zoomies out. I have experience with dogs and cats of all temperaments and breeds, allowing me to calmly and comfortably crate, medicate or walk pets. Having the knowledge and hands-on experience allows me to stay calm in any situation which helps your pets feel safe.

“Jaslyn is so sweet and she took care of my 2 dogs very well. I’m very careful of who I let into my home and I can tell you Jaslyn is very trustworthy. My dogs were fed, cleaned, and received a lot of love. I will definitely be using her services again. Thanks Jaslyn!”

About: I have a 3 year old pit and she is the best. Super energetic, loves to cuddle, loves people and other dogs, and is extremely smart. I am raising and training her myself. She knows all her basic commands like sit, stay, come, down, and heel. We have begun her off leash training! I have a 1 year old cat and a gecko. I also have experience with larger animals such as horses. I have worked with horses for about 6 years on and off. I am a recent college graduate from the College of Southern Maryland with my associate's degree in Arts and Sciences. I am able to do morning and afternoon visits and walks. It is very rare, but I am usually not available in the evening or weekends. I can also book out in advance house sitting if needed. I will administer medicine if need be, feed, and fill water bowls for drop-in visits, walks, or house sits. I can also trim nails and bathe for an extra charge. On walks, they will be no more than 30 minutes.

“Another great trip knowing our sweet dog is in good hands with Deborah. Love all the updates which put our minds at ease. We are so grateful to have her.”

About: I’ve volunteered at my local Humane Society for three years consistently. I’ve had a dog for over 4 years and I’ve helped my best friend pet sit her 8 pets for the past 3 years. Im working to be a full time pet sitter at the moment. To me pet sitting doesn’t feel like work it feels as if Im home! I make sure to give each pets lots of attention. Even when Im looking away pets usually gravitate to me or follow me around .

About: I’ve grown up with multiple dog breeds my whole life. I’ve also owned cats, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I have 2+ years of experience with taking care of bearded dragons and I’ve had a couple visits with snakes, specifically corn snakes. I work with any and all dogs/cats. I also like to send pics/videos of the pets to their owners daily for that reassurance that their fur baby is taken care of with the upmost care! I’m currently a full-time college student. I’m available any day and any time of the week. I’m usually available last minute as well and around holidays if needed. I currently have 4 dogs; 3 Yorkies and 1 Boarder Collie mix. They’re set on a twice per day feeding and their internal clock is set to those times. If I were to be in a clients home, I would do my best to ensure the animal stays in their routine and their feeding/medication is on schedule. They’d get plenty of play times and unlimited cuddles!

“Melissa was an absolute dream to work with for my two standard poodles! She stayed at my house while I was away, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. When I came home, the house actually looked better than when I left it — everything was neat, clean, and in perfect order. She sent wonderful photos and updates throughout the trip, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pups were happy and well cared for. I came home to happy, relaxed, well-exercised dogs who clearly adored her. This was hands-down the best pet sitting experience I’ve ever had. I will definitely be using Melissa again for future trips! Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Sara continues to be a fantastic sitter! She’s super communicative, sends cute pictures, and takes such great care of our corgi, Teddy. I’m always so relaxed going away because I know he’s in great hands!”

Walking/ running, fetch the ball are some outdoor activities to strengthen the bond with your dog. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I have a dog and have kept dogs for others.

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog, including daily walks, feeding schedules, grooming, and maintaining a consistent routine. I understand the importance of patience, clear communication, and providing a safe, structured environment! 😊 I am comfortable with dogs of different sizes and temperaments, including younger puppies who may still be in training or that may have accidents. I am patient, attentive, and understand that consistency is key when working with younger dogs. I prioritize reliability, cleanliness, and carefully following all owner instructions to ensure each dog feels safe and comfortable!🐶🐾 I work full-time in the restaurant industry, so my weekday availability varies. I am generally available before 10:30 AM and after work hours, on mornings-only shifts, I typically get off by 4 PM, and on double shifts, availability may start later in the evening. Weekends I am fully available from morning until night, and occasionally I have spontaneous days off that I can dedicate to dog care. I always communicate my exact availability in advance. I provide attentive and loving care for pets in their own homes, including drop-in visits, daytime sitting, and walks. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, and playtime routines. I make sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, and happy while keeping their environment clean and secure. On walks, I prioritize safety and exercise suited to each dog’s energy level. My goal is to provide consistent, reliable care so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I’m a life long animal lover and will be attentive to all the needs of your fur baby!

You can message me to inquire if I will be available for the dates and services you require for the care of your baby Whatever instructions you leave for me, I will follow them precisely to ensure the proper care of your fur baby. Crating, walking schedule, feeding schedule, clean up, playtime, etc. I will take lots of photos and videos for you to always be aware of what your baby is doing and how they’re being cared for.

“Shantae was a tentative on time and really took great care of our two year-old and six month old puppy. Our puppy had no accidents either in the house with her which is amazing while she still is still potty training. Shantae was able to look out for the signs to help her continuously be successful in potty training. If you’re looking for someone who will take care and treat your fur babies like royalty.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many kinds all my life. I currently have my own 2 year old labrador mix who I have raised since he was 5 weeks old. I absolutely adore pets and know how important they are to owners and all pet parents. I am currently home for the summer and am studying for my license exam to become a licensed mental health professional. I am very flexible and open in terms of availability. I have a fenced backyard and my own socialized and friendly dog of my own. Also have a basement, if privacy concerns arise. Thank you.

“Demmi was professional and clearly capable of handling my Great Danes. My shy girl warmed up to her in minutes and was giving her the Great Dane lean. I’ll be leaving my giant fur babies in her care again soon and know I will not need to worry while I am away.”
