Top rated Salisbury dog sitters
“Abraham and Liliana were superb! They were always precisely on-time, and took exceptionally good care of the dog and cat (my four-legged furball family). In fact, I suspect that the dog and cat liked them more than they like me. In any case, the next time I need help with the pets they will be the first people that I call.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life including dogs, cats, birds, fish, and rodents. I have also watched dogs for friends and family. I stop to pet every dog I come across out in the world, with the owner’s permission of course. I’m always looking to make friends with animals. My dog passed away at 17 in November 2024, so I would love to fill some time with more animals until I’m ready to adopt again. I’m currently self-employed and working part time, so I have plenty of time to walk and play with your furbabies! My schedule is pretty flexible, especially for the rest of this year. Outside of your home I can take your pup to a local dog park, or take them for nice walks on some local trails, or even around your neighborhood.
“Alyssa did an amazing job taking care of our dog and provided peace of mind while our family was on vacation. She was incredibly reliable and thoughtful when it came to our pet, and will be our go to sitter in the future!”
“Teresa was great and we felt so comfortable leaving out cats in her care! Tereza clearly has a love for cats and all pets. She was on time, played, fed, and cleaned up after them. We will be rebooking in the future for sure!”
“Sara was wonderful. Harry and Will were happy and healthy when we returned home after a week on vacation. And She kept us connected with daily photos. We will definitely have her come back to take care of our boys!”
About: I’ve grown up with and rescued dogs for the past 25 years and currently have a high energy Chesapeake/Border Collie mix and 12 yr old chocolate lab. I believe the best behaved and happiest dogs are those who have regular exercise and stimulation. The best part of my day is spending time playing and interacting with dogs!! I deeply respect individual needs and instructions provided by pet owners who entrust me with their pet. I’m happy to provide references and meet with you to ensure you’re comfortable with me as your walker and/or sitter. I am able to go as fast pace or as leisurely as your pup needs! I truly enjoy walking, running, playing and interacting with any breed and size dog. I am flexible with a variety of personalities and behaviors. Please let me know of any behaviors you think I should know so I can make the time with your pet a super positive experience. Medications given orally or otherwise are not a problem, I’m comfortable with medication administration. I've recently left a 30 year professional career to discover "phase 2" of life. Care and training of dogs is where I'd like to spend much of my time alongside gardening, learning and community. I have a flexible schedule to meet your needs for the care and attention of your dog. I walk my dogs to the beach or take them to parks to run everyday. Typically we go out at least 4 times a day for a total of 2 hours or more.
“Our daughter stayed with Buster while we were away for the weekend. Felicia came to our house to administer insulin shots and eye drops for Buster. She received a great review from our daughter, saying that she was right on time, and was very sweet with him! It's a good feeling to know that he was well taken care of while we were away. Thank you, Felicia!”
About: I love cats and dogs, my family has owned many pets my whole life. I have a lot of experience in how to care for them. I recently graduated from college and moved home and I'm currently working a part-time Summer job so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I have two cats at home right now so I cannot board any animals, but I have a car and would love to take yours on walks or at home sitting.
About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience, I bring a lifelong love of dogs and a deep understanding of their care. I grew up caring for our family dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, and I’m comfortable with everything from daily walks, feeding, and playtime to grooming, baths, and administering basic medications. Over the years, I’ve also provided reliable care for friends’ and family members’ dogs, including overnight stays. Whether your pup needs lots of play or extra snuggles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well-loved while you’re away. I am currently available weekdays and weekends for walks, drop in visits and overnight stays. I am working part time and my schedule is flexible. I believe in keeping the lines of communication open! I will keep you posted daily on how your pup is doing and any details of their experience or behavior that I think you should know. I will ask questions if I need more information and I would ask you to let me know anything you are wondering about while you’re away.
“Jennifer is amazing! She cared for our two Olde English Bulldogs who are a little apprehensive with new people, but both dogs were ate ease with her right away. Her attention to detail for each dog was great and I got several photos of them during the time she cared for them. I would highly recommend Jennifer to care for your four-legged friends, her love for animals shines through in the care for your own. Thank you, Jennifer!”
About: I have grown up with pets my entire life and in my teen years began to watch friends and neighbor's animals. I have experience with elderly animals and with training younger ones as well! I am currently a college student working a summer internship, however I have availability past 6:00 Monday through Thursday and full availability Friday through Sunday. With both my own pets and pets that I watch I first make sure they consistently have clean water and the appropriate food. Around every two hours for dogs I will bring them outside and let them play. I also try to interact/ play with the animal as often as possible, but respect their boundaries if they are a little more timid.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and caring for them comes second nature to me. From regularly looking after family and friends’ pets, I’ve gained hands-on experience with feeding routines, administering medication, exercise needs, and understanding unique personalities. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I treat every dog like part of the family. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priority. I work full time from home, and I am available for over night or week day as well as weekend stays as well as walks and check-ins after 5 pm. I care for pets in my clients home as to best fit their needs. I learn their feeding and walking schedule and ensure that their routine stays as consistent as possible.
About: I love being active and caring for animals. I will be very attentive and provide your dog with lots of exercise, love & joy. I am available during the week and weekends for overnights/walks. I have been taking care of Friend’s Dogs and my own dog for over 20+ years. You will be assured your dog will be tired and in good care with me. I am an abstract artist and would love this opportunity to supplement my income. My schedule is very flexible and would love to put you at ease caring for your pet while away. I have lots of energy and love to spend time outside with your dog. I assure you will be in great hands when you leave your pet home with me!

Kayla H.
“Kayla is amazing with pets! I’ve known her for a few years now and while we worked together canvassing areas for potential clients, Kayla always had to stop and pet every single animal we saw in our path. I always thought it was funny that all the dogs were attracted to her more than me, but they must serve her love for animals cause she’s a pet owner herself. I definitely recommend Kayla as a pet caregiver your animals will love her and she will treat them like her own.”

Hope W.
“I've known Hope for many years and can confidently say you won't find a better carer for your critters. Hope has taken care of my persnickety senior kitties many times over the years, and they absolutely adore her. She has also looked after our 60lb anxious senior rescue dog who suffers from both separation anxiety and leash reactivity to other dogs. Hope has managed all of my animals' special needs with love and dedication. She also has dogs of her own who have needed special medical and behavioural care. Hope has done loads of research and learning about how to best accommodate these needs, and she's been tireless in providing them the best care. She never hesitates to reach out for advice that might help her furpeople, and she brings a wealth of knowledge and a calm, gentle presence to all her work with animals.”

“We planned a two week Europe trip before our cat got sick with chronic kidney disease. We were thinking of not going but we found Geniveve through a friend and she stayed at our condo and took care of our Levi. She did a great job. We could tell how dedicated and loving she was to him. He seemed great when we returned even though it is was difficult for her to get him to eat. We can't recommend Gen highly enough.”
