About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and had a pet care service in 2012. I love dogs of all sizes, I can help with training puppies. I work full time during the week but will have a nanny at home and will be home on the weekends. I have 2 dogs of my own as well I have a fenced yard for dogs and have 2 friendly dogs that sleep in crates. Dogs will be fed on schedule and get at least an hour of play time per day

About: I've taken care of pets my entire life, I currently have 3 senior cats and 1 senior dog. I have 2 years of experience working in pet care facilities so I'm more than capable of handling all types of dogs and cats, including reactive/possessive dogs. I've been trained in cleaning, playing, monitoring play groups, feeding, and giving medication to all different sizes, breeds, and reactivity of dogs. I believe every pet deserve love and patience and I enjoy providing them with that. I also worked specifically with reactive/aggressive dogs for a year so feel free to reach out if you're dog needs a little more effort than most. :) I don't currently have a set schedule so feel free to reach out and we can figure out what works best for myself and your pets. I can walk, play with, feed, let out to potty, clean up after, and give meds to your wonderful pets depending on your needs. :)

“Courtney was absolutely amazing. She sent plenty of photos along with thoughtful, detailed updates, and my cat clearly adored her. I’m so grateful for her — especially for being so flexible on such short notice. I would book her again in a heartbeat, 1000%!”

About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for about 10 years now, through my friends, family, neighbors and my own 2 puppies! I’m a college athlete who’s very active, so I’m happy to run/play and keep energetic dogs exercised while also making sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for! Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine, caring for my own two dogs! However, I’m a college student now, who lives an hour away from home, but I’m back for weekends and have plenty of free time to care for pets! I provide a safe, fun environment for pets. I have a fenced yard for running around outside, and two friendly dogs who would love to make friends! I closely supervise pets and will follow all instructions/special requests strictly from owners!

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats for the last 6 years. I have had to feed, walk, scoop litter boxes, give medicine, and give ALL of my attention to them :) I have had a dog all of my life and have been around animals every single day. I will care for your for baby like my own. I will send pictures/videos to make you feel like you are there watching them :) I do have a full-time job, but it is remote, so I am very flexible. I do not have assigned hours, so I am able to care for your animal at any point of the day, whether be walks, or just stop in to say hey and play for a while! I will be able to care for your fur baby at your house making sure everything is cleaned up and safe for your animal. I am very accommodative and if you need or want anything else done just let me know!

“It was a simple drop-in visit and I didn’t need it to be at a specific time, but Kat was still punctual and made our trip just a bit easier knowing we didn’t have to worry about our cats!”

Courtney H.

“Chasity is always amazing. She takes such good care of our dos and always plays with our cat even though we don’t even ask for her to care for her. She sends lots of pics and always goes the extra mile. We really appreciate her.”

Mari H.

“Faith has watched our Shiba Inus multiple times now, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provides. She’s reliable, responsive, and truly great with our dogs—even administering medication to our elderly Shiba with no issues. Most recently, she helped us out while we were in the hospital for the birth of our son. We weren’t sure how many drop-ins we’d need or how long we’d be gone, but she was incredibly flexible and quick to respond. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pups were in good hands. Highly recommend!”

About: I have been taking care of the pets of family friends and people who they recommended me to them. I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, turtles, and one very friendly cockatiel. I work part-time at the moment, but I am available most weekdays during the day & evening, and during the earlier morning & during the afternoon on weekends. This is of course subject to change in unforeseen schedule changes, but is a fair baseline. I currently have two cats and soon a dog at my own Home, so currently I’m not able to provide boarding. However, I’m able and happy to drive to check in on and take care of your four legged friends, and will make sure to spend as much time with them as you’d like. I will clean up any mess your pet has made or take them out to use the bathroom(in the case of dogs), feed them, & of course make sure they get a proper level of attention. I also do mail collection if you’re going to be away a while.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. My family has also fostered puppies for the past 5–6 years, which has given me experience with young dogs, routines, patience, and providing a safe, loving environment. Friends and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets like they’re my own. I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time to dedicate to your pets before starting my full-time role in July. Once I begin, I’ll only be in office two days a week, so I’ll still have lots of availability. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to accommodate a variety of schedules and care needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced yard and one friendly small dog who loves making new friends. Whether caring for your dog in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they feel loved, safe, active, and comfortable. I enjoy long walks, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention and care while you’re away.

“Ive never had my dog so excited/happy with a Rover person. Randi truly goes over and above. She came prepared with her own supplies (treats/poop bags) and was patient when i abruptly asked if she would be willing to stay longer due to work conflicts that arose. Genuinely has love for dogs. As long as her schedule is clear wont be booking anyone else going forward”

About: Hi guys! My name is Emily, I’m a 27 year old who loves animals. I really like to read, go to concerts with my friends, and spend time with my family. I’ve been house sitting and pup sitting for over 10 years now. My availability is very open at the moment considering I’m doing school virtually. Please feel free to contact me anytime for all of your dog, cat, fish, bird, turtle, hamster, cow, horse, etc needs! I also have a huge vegetable/flower garden so have plenty of experience with that if necessary. Look forward to hearing from you! I currently am working part time and doing school virtually so I have a very flexible schedule that would allow me plenty of time to help care for your babies! I’ve had 10 plus years experience with pet sitting so have had to handle many different situations that have made me a better sitter. I’m prepared for anything and love these pets as my own!

About: As a pre-vet student with hands-on experience from a dog hotel and lifetime of pet care, I offer more than just sitting. I'm skilled in senior care and puppy training basics, and my experience breeding crested geckos and caring for birds and cats gives me a deep understanding of diverse animal needs. I'm dedicated to providing informed, attentive care. Being a UMD student allows me to provide your dog with consistent, attentive walks throughout the day. I'm passionate about giving them the exercise and companionship they deserve, right here on campus. Whether in my home or yours, pet safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a clean and secure environment, free from hazards. I strictly adhere to all feeding and medication instructions, and I'm vigilant about monitoring pets for any signs of distress. When walking, I use a secure leash and harness, remain aware of surroundings, and avoid busy roads. I prioritize building trust with both pets and owners through clear communication, reliability, and genuine affection. I understand the importance of routine, and I strive to minimize stress by maintaining consistency. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing a loving and safe environment

About: I provide calm, attentive, and reliable care tailored to each pet’s personality and routine. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including energetic puppies, senior dogs, and pets that need extra patience or reassurance. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, reinforcing training routines, and making sure pets get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. What sets me apart is my focus on consistency and communication. I keep owners updated with photos and messages, pay close attention to details, and make sure pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, quiet companionship, or structured routines, I adapt my care to match their needs and help reduce stress for both pets and owners. I am currently a junior at covenant college studying biology. I plan on applying to med school and becoming a doctor in a field where I can be an asset in medicine. I am currently a Vet Tech at Great Scottie Veterinary Clinic. I am a lover of animals and will do all that I can to provide the joy and satisfaction your pet needs! I take safety and trust seriously when caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. I always follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, and routines so pets feel comfortable and secure. I make sure pets are supervised, kept in safe areas, and never put in situations that could be unsafe. In my home, I keep a clean and calm environment where pets have fresh water, regular bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention. I always use leashes on walks and make sure dogs are secure when outside. In a client’s home, I respect their space and try to keep the pet’s routine the same as usual. I also provide updates and photos so owners know their pet is safe and happy. My goal is to make pets feel comfortable and cared for while giving owners peace of mind.

“Jennifer was great with our dog who is 13. I have had to be away more than he is used to and when I get back he is relaxed and happy to see me. Which means Jennifer's time with him has been fun. I highly recommend her.”
