“Lily was terrific! She was enthusiastic and caring with Bailey and Beau and was a great communicator with us about details concerning our home and the pups needs. Would not hesitate to use her again.”


“Louise was amazing! She updated me along the way and took care of my dog while I was out of town! She responded quickly and made sure to send pics of my dog so I didn’t worry about her!! Highly highly recommend!!!!!”


About: I’ve owned different breed’s throughout my life and have had puppies grow up to live long, healthy lives! I’ve also had the pleasure of taking care of small and large dogs with hip displacia, blindness, cancer and other special needs. I’m also a huge health nut, so I’m always researching nutrition topics and things that may benefit the doggies I get to meet! I have an early job in the morning so I’ll be available for very early visits and I’ll be out of work at 1:30pm so I can spend the rest of the of the day and weekends taking care of my fur friends. I’ll keep and eye on them, make sure there is nothing around or anything they can get into to get hurt. On outside walks they always be on a leash and we will avoid big highways.

About: I’ve had different types of dogs since I was young. I’ve trained dogs for all types of reasons. I’m a lover of all pups and can handle your dogs needs. I own a large property specifically for the environment, which is perfect for dogs. I look forward to meeting your doggie and returning a happy pup back to you. Please message for any details. I’m available on weekends and weeknights. I work full time M-F, so weekends are primarily open. While I can do many activities during the work week, I am gone about 8 hours for my primary job. Weeknights and weekends are available. I have a large property with plenty of room to roam. Chickens in the yard (in coop). I have a 6 year old pup of my own that is very docile, loves other animals and gets along with them easily, and is my number two. I don’t have a fence because my dog is perimeter trained. However, I can perimeter train your dog too or walk them on a leash if that is preferred. I plan to add a fence soon and will update this once I do.

“Kat took great care of our two dogs over a long weekend. One is an older Labrador, and Kat seemed to manage all the medications, frequent walks, assists up and down the stairs, etc. with composure and caring! The house looked great, and the dogs had obviously been well taken care of. I recommend Kat highly and without reservation!”


“Karen was great with our four animals (dogs and cats)! Karen was communicative, provided great updates, and let us know when one of our cats was having a minor potential health issue. Would recommend and I know our pets are already looking towards when Karen will be back to see them again!”

“Michael is hands down the best pet sitter we’ve had. He is super communicative, obviously loves animals, follows directions and left the house super clean! Really appreciate it! Will definitely be using him again!”


About: With years of experience caring for dogs, I stand out as a pet sitter due to my ability to also look after my clients’ plants/garden from time-to-time. My lifelong passion for animals includes providing special care for young and senior dogs, ensuring their health and happiness. My current schedule varies, but I typically work 7-hour shifts on Sundays and Mondays. On the these dates, I can manage pet care for all dogs that have a wait period to be let out 4-8 hrs. If necessary, I have the flexibility to call off work to ensure your pets are well taken care of. From Tuesday to Saturday, I have open availability, allowing me to dedicate ample time to pet care activities, such as walks, feeding, and playtime. This arrangement helps me balance work commitments while ensuring your pets receiving the attention and care they need. In caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment. I ensure to follow detailed instructions provided by the client to meet the specific needs of their dog. For instance, if a dog is anxious during thunderstorms, I am proactive in reaching out via call or text to discuss calming strategies. Additionally, I always clarify any boundaries regarding what I can handle or access in the home and to build a stronger rapport, I will arrange pre-sitting meetings with clients to better understand their preferences and to bond with their dog(s).

About: I volunteer at my local shelter and help train pets there! I also have 3 of my own cats, a lizard, and have had dogs my entire life! I can watch dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, reptiles and more! I am a teacher so I have regular hours and during the summer I will be completely free! I can do after school hours during the school year. I would love to walk your pet, play with them, and make sure they feel loved and cared for! I love snuggles with pets and letting them get all their energy out!

“Faith is a fantastic petsitter! We were out of town for 8 days and didn't have to worry about a thing back home. It was wonderful to find a caring person who could spend this much time with our pets. Boarding can be so stressful on our big dogs, but Faith was able to do overnights and wasn't intimidated by our Dobermans in the slightest. She was a perfect fit, and we were so blessed to find her on Rover. It was our first experience with the service platform being new to Southern Maryland, but we will be repeat customers for sure.”


About: I have experience taking care of cats and dogs going back to my early teens. I’m just as much a cat lover as I am a dog lover and would love to take care of your fur babies. Whether you have a sweet big dog or a little shy cat, I love them all the same. Most of my family has at-least 2 or more cats or dogs and they often rely on me to take care of them when they go on vacation, have a long work week, or just need a helping hand. I currently work full time, 9-5 Monday through Friday. Most of my availability is on the weekends or late afternoons. But depending on the request I may be able to make an exception. I have experience caring for small dogs, big dogs, shy cats, energetic cats, senior dogs and cats. I’ve cared for almost every type of pet there is. I’ve even cared for reptiles and guinea pigs. Whether your pet would like space and quiet or someone to help them get their energy out I can provide that. I can meet the needs of your pet. Every dog/cat is different and I’m here for it all 😊

“She was a wonderful animal sitter. She followed instructions and cuddled with the animals. There was daily updated and pictures send. She really did a great job or making the pets happy.”


“Our kitten Raven (nickname "Mayhem") gave Jorda a run for her money and she v was up to the task! And she gave our boy his daily meds and kept Jelly the food lover with allergies out of the non-allergy food. And left a beautiful cat pod that she crocheted herself!! I could not recommend Jordan more. My babies were happy and well cared for while we were away.”


“Kacy was great with taking care of my dog, Luna! Luna is a very high energy, bully mix who can be a little crazy! Kacy handled her very well and Luna warmed up quickly to her, which was great because sometimes Luna can be wary of people. Definitely recommend Kacy!”


About: I've watched and taken care of dogs for many years, mainly family and near by neighbors. I have grew up on a farm which i've taken care of many other animals as well... mainly farm animals and dogs!! I'm currently in college right now, it's mostly online so that's not really an issue. I'm working part time as well, which I have plenty of time to take care of the dogs!! I'm always free on weekends unless otherwise noted!! I have two golden-doodles, which are crate trained. They are allowed to run freely outside but they know where they are and aren't allowed. I keep them on a schedule, meaning with going outside, playing, and feeding.

About: My husband, William, and I have 7 years experience with raising high drive working dogs starting as young as 8 weeks. We feel well equipped to provide the highest level care for your furry loved one while maintaining any training goals. Your dogs comfort and safety is our highest priority so we will try to match your dogs schedule to the best of our ability. I am currently offering care on my days off allowing me the opportunity to have a flexible schedule to fit your dog’s needs during both week days and weekends. I have a 6 foot fenced in yard for your dog to have some safe off leash playtime. Your dog will be home with our residential dog, Duke, during their visit. Duke is an intact male Labrador, so if your dog is in heat, we will keep them separate. All dog gear (toys, water bowls, etc) will be thoroughly cleaned between dog visits to prioritize the health and safety of your dog.

About: I am usually in charge of my family dogs back home in Maryland, making sure they get walked, bathed, and fed. Aside from my own dogs I have cared for many of my relatives and neighbors' dogs when they are out of town or simply for a daily walk. I currently have one client that I walk for daily and look forward to seeing their dog every day! Most of my classes at Tulane University are online meaning that I have a very flexible schedule. I am an extremely reliable worker and would ideally like to establish an ongoing professional relationship with pet and owner. I live 5 minutes from Audubon Park. I absolutely love getting time outside and getting some exercise in with your dogs. I am also an athlete at Tulane so I am very active and am the perfect person to get your younger dogs out for some mid-day exercise or love. I am currently a student at Tulane and am looking for clients who need someone to pop in and do a mid-day check or walk while they are at work. I also have freedom in the mornings and evenings. I am experienced in dog sitting and believe that dogs are always more comfortable in their own homes and would love to give your home a visit. I believe in sticking to their daily routine to make sure they don't have any additional stress added to their day.

Seth G.
“I have known Seth for nearly 6 years and in that time I have seen what an incredible pet caregiver he is. He adores and takes such good care of his own dog, Ziggy (the sweetest boxer in the world), as well as a flock of lovely chickens who also adore him to the point of wanting to come into his house! I’ve seen him interact with and take amazing care of other animals too, including cats and ducks. Seth has such a warm personality and you can tell he truly cares for and loves animals. I would absolutely trust him to care for my own pets. He’ll go above and beyond to make sure your pet is cared for, not only covering the basics (feeding, watering, bathroom time, etc.), but also providing love, affection, and play. I highly recommend Seth to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”

Lucy has had a lot of health issues recently and we really needed someone who would be ultra responsible and give her lots of love and attention. Anna exceeded our expectations and built such a great trust and loving relationship with Lucy - it's very clear that they have bonded. In fact, we already asked her to stay for a future date. In addition, she took great care of our garden, making sure to water everyday and paid careful attention to every task I asked her to take on. She is attentive, responsible, and very caring. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”
