Top rated Upperco dog sitters
“Victoria is an outstanding pet sitter! She took care of our corgi and two cats with exceptional attention and care. Her clear and frequent communication kept us at ease throughout our time away. As repeat customers, we consistently feel secure knowing our pets are in her capable hands. Highly recommend her for anyone seeking a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Lindsey was awesome! She stopped by a day prior to meet my feisty pet that doesn’t really let anyone touch her. The next day Lindsey started her shifts and my dog acted like she knew Lindsey from before! Awesome person. Will definitely use her services again!”
“Samantha is literally the best on Rover! So so helpful, always so sweet and caring toward our fur babies and generally so sweet! I've booked her over and over because I know I can trust her. Your search is over :)”
About: I’ve always been an animal lover, but life circumstances haven’t allowed me to have a pet of my own for awhile—so I put all that love, attention, and care into yours. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch, long walks, or just keeping your pet’s routine steady while you’re away, I treat every furry friend like family. I am looking to fill some of my time loving on your pet. I have always loved dogs and I miss having them in my home. Flexible hours for availability. I also walk a lot and would love to have a companion! Sounds like a win win! I am looking for opportunities to care for pets outside of my home. Due to family allergies I am unable to own a pet so I am looking to love on yours.
About: I love the babies and the old folks yelling, "Get offa my lawn!" I care for puppies who are at least partially housebroken (tell me your style, and I can adapt to it). I care for seniors who need medicine and/or mobility equipment. I care for all the dogs in-between. I have cared for dogs with skin allergies and skittish dogs who are terrified of storms. I will help your dog feel right at home everywhere we go. I go to college online, part-time, so your schedule is my schedule. I am free whenever you need me, generally within one day's notice. If you need me to housesit, as long you have wi-fi, I am good to go. I live in a townhouse, and I have a cat, so I can only doggy daycare small-to-medium dogs, but we can take walks all day long, if your pup wants! At your home, your rules are my rules. I will follow whatever reasonable instructions you have for your pets. (I can also water your plants and feed your fish/birds/small mammals/reptiles.)
About: As a proud owner of 3 dogs and a cat, I will strive to make your pet feel like my own. Loved, cherished, and lots of belly rubs. Right now my only priority is to focus on my upcoming school year! Besides that I am free on weekdays and weekends. Day and night! I care for my dogs in my home by providing them with the enrichment they need. Whether that is playing tug of war or treat hide and seek!
“Lora was great! We asked her to drop in on short notice and she was very accommodating. She has great communication and was wonderful! We are planning to book her again going forward.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Kelly. This is the second time she has worked with my dogs and I can confidently say that she is a kind and caring animal caregiver. I felt relaxed knowing my elderly dogs were with her because she is attentive and thorough in following instructions. My dogs adore her. She loves on them as if they are her own babies. She is respectful of our home and communicates regularly. I strongly recommend Kelly for sitting and drop-ins, and plan to use her for all future dog sitting needs.”
“Mandy does a great job with my cats. I made a mistake on my booking and while on vacation she reached out to me. I am so glad that she did otherwise the cats would not had a visit from her for 2 days.”
About: I have taken care of all animals from horses to rabbits and snakes ever since I was little. I am blessed with the ability to have been working for a kennel for the past four years that’s given me experience to care for them. I feed, water, medicate, play and spend time with all sorts of pups ! I’m currently working full time but I can do anytime after 5 on fridays and anytime on Saturday and Sunday !I am devoted to give the very best pet care there is in the area! In my home, I have four Boston terriers and two cats. The bostons are great pets ! We have a fenced in yard for them to run and play. We also have a pool for them to swim in . They’re spoiled :). The cats are indoor/outdoor cats and are all up to date on shots! We also have two kittens we just adopted :)
About: I have had dogs and other small animals for my entire life. Currently have two dogs of my own. A pug and a jack russel/dachshund mix. I watch my friends dogs when they are away. I will treat yours like my own and make sure they are happy and healthy after my visit. Cuddles, kisses, and lots of play time. I have experience with all types of breeds from miniature to large. I also had a dog previously for 12 years who was blind for two, so I have experience with blind dogs as well. You can rest assured that no matter what kind of dog you have and what their needs are, they will be well taken care of. I look forward to meeting your pet(s). I am flexible and can work around most schedules. Let’s chat about your needs. I am more available in evenings and weekends and weekdays during lunch and early mornings. I have a fenced in yard. I have two dogs to keep your babies company as well. When in your home I will take every precaution if you don’t have a fence yourself.
“Margaret was wonderful! She visited us to meet Riley and learn her routine before we officially booked her. She kept us up-to-date on her visits and I could tell Riley took to her so easily. I felt so comfortable getting away and knowing our pup was happy and taken care of. I will definitely book Margaret again!”
“Nina was such a pleasure to work with. She was very personable and my dogs loved her. My cocker spaniel was especially sad to see her go after our meet and greet. During her at home visit, she sent lots of photos of my dogs playing and enjoying themselves. I know they were quite pleased to have her company for a little while and I would definitely use her services again.”
About: Hi! I've had animals all my life and I grew up going to my grandparents' farm in Northern Balt Co. I bottled fed calves, fed chickens, kittens, and puppies. I'm now a part time work-from-home accountant that would like to fill my down time with my kids and animals! I currently work part-time at home, with a very flexible schedule. I'm available in the mornings - day time and possibly evenings. With planning, I could potentially do overnight! I prefer to come to your home but with planning could arrange to bring your dog to my house. We have 7 acres of mostly grass!
About: I’ve been pet/home sitting for 7 years with different families all over Maryland. My goal is to give clients ease and know their pets/home is in good hands! 😊 Since I work in the evenings, my mornings and afternoons are free to walk, play, or just keep your fur baby company while you’re away. And with house sitting, I’ll make sure your plants watered, etc. What started out as something I did to help our family and friends has grown to something I thoroughly love to do! While I do not have any pets of my own, I know there is great l responsibility when taking care of animals . My promise is to keep your pets in the safe environments you’ve provided/created for them.
“Emily is the best pet sitter 100%. She took care of my fur baby like he was his own. She makes sure he ate and drink. She spent quality time with him and gave very specific feedback to help me understand how he was doing. I recommend her to anyone”

“Cheryl loves animals. I have used her a number of times. She has cared for my 2 Vizslas which require extra snuggling and attention.

She knows by being with the dogs, she would be able to spot any abnormal behavior and then react appropriately.”
