Dog Sitting in Upper Marlboro

About: I’m excited to welcome new pups into a calm, loving home where they’ll be treated like family. My home isn’t a kennel — it’s a cozy, safe space where your dog can relax, play, and feel comfortable. I’ve been a dedicated dog mom for the past 6 years, and our pup is friendly, well-socialized, and loves having playmates around. She truly enjoys the company of other dogs and often becomes fast friends with our guests. What sets me apart is the level of attention and care each dog receives. I intentionally keep a small, manageable environment so every pup feels safe, seen, and part of the pack. Whether your dog loves to play or prefers a more relaxed vibe, I tailor the experience to their needs. Who knows — your pup might just leave with a new best furry friend 🐾 have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. Each morning begins with a walk for exercise and potty time, followed by additional walks and breaks throughout the day based on your dog’s needs. Dogs are never left unattended for long periods, and I’m able to adjust my schedule to ensure they receive proper care, supervision, and engagement. Whether your pup enjoys structured walks, playtime, or a more relaxed routine, I tailor the day to keep them comfortable, active, and happy. For daycare, my standard rate covers up to 8 hours (8 AM – 4 PM). Extended care beyond that is $15/hour and must be confirmed ahead of time. This will be communicated upon reservation request. If you have a crate or pen for your pup, you should definitely bring it with you. When I leave home, I put our fury baby in her gated pen. Plenty walks will be provided and I have a lot of space outdoors for such activity. Please provide paw wipes and poop bags.

“Amoy took great care of my cat Penny while I was away for Thanksgiving break. When my return flight was unexpectedly cancelled, she was incredibly flexible with additional last-minute visits, which was a huge relief. Penny is a senior cat with acid reflux issues, and Amoy handled cleaning up after her when she had flare-ups. I also really appreciated that her daughter spent time playing with Penny. She gets lonely when she’s by herself, so the extra attention meant a lot.”

“Jessica did a great job with my kittens. She kept me up to date on their shenanigans (and cleaned up after them when needed). She also brought things in off my balcony when a big storm was on its way. It gives me peace of mind to know my cats will be well taken care of while I’m out of town.”

“Naomi was amazing again for our three girls and helped me out with a couple of asks around the house I had forgotten about before we left like plugging in our furbo and turning off our sprinkler. She’s phenomenal!”

About: I’m fairly new to pet care, but after spending 4 year as a care giver, I want to give my second passion a chance which is taking care of dogs and cats.

About: Hi, I’m Rubi. If you book with us, both my wife Martha and I will be taking care of your pet. We truly love animals, not just as pets, but as family. Before accepting a new booking, we like to do a meet and greet. This helps make sure your pet feels comfortable with us and also gets along well with our two dogs. It’s important to us that everyone feels safe, calm, and at ease from the beginning. We know how it feels to leave your dog with someone else, because we would only trust people who care for them the same way we do. That’s exactly how we care for every pet that stays with us, like they are our own. We have two dogs at home, Oddie, our 5-year-old Cavapoo, and Toffy, our 15-year-old Bichon Frise and Maltese mix. They’ve taught us patience, attention, and how every dog has their own personality and needs. Your pet will be in a calm, loving home where they are allowed on the couch, can relax, play, and just feel comfortable. We go on walks, spend time with them, and make sure they are never just being watched, they are being truly cared for. I work mornings, and Martha works from home full time, so there is always someone present. Your pet will not be left alone or ignore. We believe in letting dogs be themselves. Every pet adjusts differently to a new environment, and we understand that it can sometimes be a little stressful at first. That’s why we ask about their routines, habits, and preferences, so we can keep things as familiar as possible and reduce that initial stress. Our goal is to make the transition gentle and help them feel safe, understood, and at home. We’ll also send updates and photos, because we know how important that is when you’re away. At the end of the day, we treat your pet the way we would want someone to treat ours, with love, patience, and real attention. I work in the morning at the moment, but Martha works from home full time so she will be available at all times if I am not around. We make sure to understand your pet's routines and habits, as well as any special needs they may have, such as medication or dietary restrictions, and provide plenty of toys and beds for the pets to use.

“Solid 5 stars for Ms. Rita and her care for Calie and Bow! Her visits were timely. We know that she was exceptional because they almost seemed disappointed when they realized it was is coming through the door and not Ms. Rita! Will definitely book again when the need arises.”

Catie S.

About: I love dogs and have years of experience caring for family, friends, and my own two “fur babies.” I provide safe supervision, playtime, and lots of love, treating every dog like part of my family. I can guarantee they won’t want to leave and I keep owners updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry friend is happy and well cared for. Pet care is my full focus during sitting bookings. I make sure I’m fully available to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, feeding, and plenty of attention so each dog feels safe and cared for.” I provide loving care for pets while maintaining a safe and comfortable home environment. I prioritize safety by following all instructions, supervising pets closely, and keeping spaces clean. I build trust with owners through regular updates and photos. Having a young baby at home, I understand the importance of gentle, calm interactions, and I ensure every pet feels secure, happy, and well cared-for.

About: Reliable and attentive pet sitter with proven experience providing comfort and care to both dogs and cats. I have been the proud fur mama to my own puff balls: Ghost, a male Cane Corso (May 2020 – April 2025, crossed the rainbow bridge), and Gumbo, a male domestic shorthair tabby cat, currently 7 months old (adopted at 2 months). I have the patience and adaptability to care for all temperaments, including shy, stubborn, anxious, skittish, high-energy, and aggressive pets. My priority is to tailor my care style to meet your pet's needs, ensuring the most enjoyable stay possible and putting both you and your pet at ease. I am willing to facilitate any training or routines you want to maintain for your pet while you’re away, administer medicine, and provide light grooming (hair detangling/combing, baths, teeth brushing, etc.) for an added fee. My cat is free-roaming and very friendly, but I can provide isolated areas for your cat(s) and mine if needed. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies, whether they stay with me or I drop in for some fun fur auntie time! Pet care is a normal part of the routine, recent long time dog owner (5 years, passed rainbow bridge 04/2025). I work from home 2 days a week and typically home on weekends. Was owner to an adult mastiff/cane corso and so, regular walks, attention, and play are a part of my daily and weekly routine. I have stubborn pup who scales the spectrum between very obedient to going full on sas and temper tantrum, so I am comfortable with all types of temperaments of dogs. If you allow joint play, I will allow it supervised by myself, or if your pup prefers 1:1 time - I will divide crate and play time between my dog and yours separately. Large dogs - will alternate with my dog having one be crated at night and throughout the day outside of scheduled play time, walks, and potty breaks to allow less frustration across both for freedom.and saftey, but I can accommodate dogs who are not crate trained and crate my pup if needed - his crate is like his tiny house - he enjoys it. Small dogs, unless otherwise requested, will take priority for free reign throughout the day/uncrated. I live in a quiet neighborhood, much traffic, and it has quiet short walking trails with trees; I have a small fenced back yard as well for roaming. I do not board rottweilers, huskies, malamutes, or male pit bulls due to my dog's disposition of them, but can do check-ins and 1:1 dog walks with these breeds.

About: I’ve taken care of pets personally since 2014 when I had my blue nose pitt! I love all animals and am excited to see what furry friends I make! I’m currently a junior in college, so I’m mostly available for breaks, holidays, and the summer! My availability is more flexible on weekends than weekdays and willing to watch and tend to your paw-some pet overnight in the home! I love having fun and making every furry friend feel comfortable and loved, from baths to letting out the zoomies! My favorite things to do are going on long walks, cuddles, and running around outside together!

“Imani is great! She is communicative and excellent at following instructions. Her dog ace is well trained and makes for an excellent companion dog on her visits. We look forward to having her as our long-term pet sitter. HIGHLY recommend. ☺️”

“Alysia did a great job dropping in on our cat, Twiddle. Sent daily pictures that made us miss our cat a little less. Would definitely book again.”
