“My dogs had a great stay! Denise even got my picky dog to eat from a dish. I have a very hard time with. Her eating. The pictures of my dogs relaxing with the family gave me peace of mind so that I could enjoy my vacation. I would highly recommend Denise.”
“Anika was an amazing care giver for my fur baby. She sent daily videos and pictures which alleviated my anxiety. Since my fur baby was only 16 weeks old, Anika was really patient with him because he is not fully house trained. I will definitely be using her services again and I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dog sitter.”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Marco and Polo! From the moment we dropped them off, we felt completely comfortable knowing they were in caring and loving hands. She kept us updated, treated them like family, and clearly paid attention to their individual personalities and needs. Marco and Polo came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for — which says everything. Sarah went above and beyond, and her kindness and professionalism truly stood out. It’s hard to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, but Sarah made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and attentive sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you again, Sarah, for taking such wonderful care of our boys!”
“I cannot express enough gratitude towards La Tasha for her exceptional puppy sitting services for my beloved Ace. From the moment I handed over Ace to her, La Tasha went above and beyond to alleviate all my stress and worries. Her consistent updates, filled with adorable pics and videos of Ace, were not just reassuring but a testament to her dedication and care. Throughout the day, her messages kept me informed about Ace's well-being, which was incredibly comforting, especially since I was concerned about his eating and sleeping habits in my absence. La Tasha didn't just look after Ace; she treated him with the same love and attention as if he were her own, which speaks volumes about her character and passion for animals. I am immensely grateful for her kindness, professionalism, and the peace of mind she provided me. Without a doubt, I will be turning to La Tasha's services again in the future. A heartfelt thank you, La Tasha, for everything.”
“Sent us pictures of our pup everyday and gave updates. Our pupper had a friend all week to play with and came back happy! Great family to have take care of your dog!”
“This was our first time boarding our dog. We appreciated Megan's personality and her warm family. Diesel seemed super happy in every photo. We will definitely be using her again.”
“I love love LOVE having CiCi care for my fur baby Charli! She stayed four nights without her baby shadow, my other spoiled pooch, and she enjoyed outdoor play, made new friends, and even got a manicure and pedicure! I always feel confident leaving my dogs in her care because she cares for them as if they are her own. I recommended her recently to my neighbor for her puppy and she is also pleased with the care she received. We will continue to use her for our extended stay needs for sure!”
“Nikki is absolutely amazing. My dog is very nervous around people, she did not rush him. Initially, I reached out to have her handle some dinners a couple of times a year but then I had an unexpected death in the family that required me to go out of town for seven days. She was wonderful working around my schedule. We received multiple updates showing how happy he is hanging with her family and dogs. This meant the world to us knowing he was is such good hands.”
“This was our second time having Tanita and Terrence care for our fur baby. It's a good feeling when you are pleased with the care and service Tanita and Terrence provide, but when our fur baby expresses excitement before they opened the door I knew he was in good hands. Will use their services again”
“Kelly was able to step in at the last minute when our plans for our dog’s care fell through and we felt 100% confident leaving them in her hands. She took great care of them and it seems like they had a lot of fun!!”
“I highly recommend Melanie and Randy to care for your pets! Our dog,Pax, can only have a certain type of dog toy, since he is a heavy chewer, and Melanie made sure that he would only have non-destructable toys to play with. She also gave updates with pictures to let me know how Pax was settling in. I felt very comfortable with Melanie and Randy caring for Pax and will definitely rebook with them on the future.”
“Lindsay took such great care of my pup, Marley, over the holidays! She went above and beyond getting Marley a toy (her new favorite) for Christmas, making adorable ornaments, replacing a sweater that got damaged, and sending daily picture and video updates. In every photo, Marley looked so happy and well entertained, and it gave me complete peace of mind knowing she was truly loved and treated like family. I’m so grateful for the care, thoughtfulness, and communication, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can fully trust!”
“My girls enjoyed their stay. They came home happy and ready to go again. I highly appreciate Dasia keeping up with my senior's eye drops to include logging when she received them.”
“Seyla provided TOP TIER service over the weekend while I was away. This was my first time leaving Jax with anyone and I had an idea that he would do well with my 130lb Germanese. But he far surpassed my expectations. I am so grateful for the peace of mind I was afforded knowing Jax was in good hands. From the daily hiking adventure videos to the nightly progress reports...I never had to guess if my big baby was adjusting well or blending in well with the pack. Thank you thank you thank you, Seyla!! and the camera footage... totally James Bond!! Jax can't wait to come back and visit again.”
“Erwin is reliable, trustworthy and went above and beyond to take care of Rho’s needs. It was apparent from the moment he interacted with my dog , I knew that he Rho was going to enjoy his time there. In addition, his knowledge regarding all aspects of canine care is extensive and helpful. I am so relieved that I found someone who I can trust with my fur baby. I received daily updates, which was awesome. I already have shared his profile with other dog owners that I know. He will definitely be getting my business again!!!”
“Thank you Elizabeth, for taking such great care of our boy Max. He requires extra attention due to his separation anxiety. You treated him like he was your own, allowing him to be a lap dog as big as he is. He loves to be next to people. You provided us with pictures and updates on how he was doing. We enjoyed our trip, knowing he was being well taken care of. Elizabeth, you went out of your way to help us stay calm when our flight was significantly delayed. We will definitely use your services again.”
“My 2 fur babies stayed with Dee for a weekend. The girl whom is the youngest is super hyper & very feisty & the boy just wants to play with his ball but have occasional anxiety like most pups. . Dee is awesome, she was extremely patient with my two poodles and sent me daily updates on their feedings, walks, daily behavior, etc. I was a little worried when I dropped them off but Dee made me feel more comfortable after she sent me updates & assured me they were doing well. After picking them up, my fur babies were happy & relaxed. I will definitely use Dee J. services again.”

About: I have taken care of animals for over a year now at a dog daycare/boarding centre in a variety of different circumstances. From Mastiff’s to Chihuahuas, I am confident taking care of various different sized dogs with a variety of different dietary needs from raw diets to kibble diets, medical needs from dogs that get medication once a day to dogs that get medication several times a day, and activity needs from dogs that need regular exercise to senior dogs that don’t need to be exercised. I have also had experience handling dogs that are extremely nervous around new people, dogs that can resource guard toys, and dogs that are highly reactive. I am a full-time commuter college student with large gaps between my morning and afternoon classes which I can travel to and from the owners house to let their dogs out and play with during. The only time that I am unable to stop by the house between classes is on Thursdays where I will be gone from 8 am to 2 pm due to my in-person lab course. I only offer services at my clients house so as of not to subject the pet to unnecessary stress from being in a new environment. I can administer any medication that is not via injection, I can cater to a variety of diets ranging from raw meat every day to freshly cooked food three times a day to kibble twice a day depending on the dogs needs, I have personal leashes that I can use or I can use the owners leashes to take the dog on walks as often as request/needed.

“I met Christina during the Rover meet and Greet. We had an easy and nice conversation. I felt comfortable leaving our lovely cat Miss Pepper ( and our house to some extent) in her care. My cat is an inside cat taking strides outside at night. Christina sent me pictures of the fresh meals that she arranged on the floor in different cups on newspapers- it was a comfortable experience for us and we plan to use Rover next time as well?”

“I give Bree a rating of 1000/10. This was the longest time (8 days) that we had to leave our curmudgeonly old-man behind and I was concerned, but Bree went above and beyond to make sure our Puppy Cat had companionship and felt loved. She kept in regular communication with us and reported in detail about each visit with him. She even provide photo evidence that he allowed her to touch him! I didn't think about it until I saw the pictures she provided, but she paid attention to the details during our initial meeting and I was especially pleased that our old man's food was handled how and where he was used to so it was one less disruption. We will definitely ask Bree to sit for us next time we need.”
About: I have a lovely home in St Mary’s County with a fenced in back yard overlooking three acres. My family has always had dogs and it wouldn’t be home without them! We have three friendly beagle mixes, ages 2, 3 and 4.

I love walking and playing with pups, who make our lives much better through their loving companionship. Before our current dogs, I have raised three other family dogs and three cats, a love bird, four parakeets, fish and a bearded dragon! I have pet sat for several friends as well and enjoy it!
About: Hello! My name is Alicia and I have had my own furry companions or cared for furry companions since I was a young child. I currently own my own rescue shelter and am very qualified to care for yours as well. I am a shift work firefighter/paramedic and only work 8 days a month. So the days I place on my availability schedule I am typically home. I may run an errand or two but can work that around the needs/wants of my clients. If I was to care for your furry companion I would make sure they are fed and have plenty of water. If they require anything special or extra I can manage that as well. I will play with them and spend time with them so they can get some wiggles and energy out. I can take them on a walk and make sure they go potty.

I’ve cared for my family‘s pets and have completed a basic veterinary assistant class recently.

Currently, I share my home with three beloved cats—Captain, Haven, and Slasher—and one sweet pup, Lucy, who keeps life fun and full of love. In addition to caring for my own fur babies, I regularly house-sit and pet-sit for friends and family. I'm currently unemployed due to medical reasons, which gives me a flexible schedule to accommodate potty breaks, playtime, feeding routines, and check-ins—even if I’m not staying overnight. I like to start with a meet and greet to get to know you and your pets. During that time, I ask clients to walk me through their routine and expectations, and I encourage leaving a detailed care list I can refer back to as needed. My goal is to keep things as smooth, stress-free, and loving as possible—for both you and your pets. I'd love the opportunity to care for your fur babies with the same attention and affection I give my own. Let's chat about how I can help! Pet care is already a big part of my daily life with my own cats and dog. I plan my day around feeding, potty breaks, and playtime, so adding in care for other pets fits naturally into my routine. My flexible schedule allows me to easily accommodate visits, walks, or overnight stays based on your pet’s needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow any specific routines or instructions provided and make sure pets are in a secure, clean, and stress-free environment. I take the time to build trust with each pet, move at their pace, and keep their daily routines as consistent as possible. I also encourage clients to leave detailed care notes to ensure nothing is missed.

“Suzy was so concerned about my safety and ability to go to a memorial for a friend. When I was late, she was immediatly understanding, in fact, supportive. It was so lucky that I got in touch with her in the first place. . She greeted us with her two dogs, who were so sweet. She made sure the dogs had a proper introduction and gave me confidence that she would be able to handle my very active Australian cattle dog. All went beautifully.”

About: I am a loving and experienced animal advocate. I graduated in 2016 with a degree in Exercise Science, and in 2021 with a Masters degree in Public Health. Between age 9-18, I was an active member in my local 4-H club, but my pet experience began long before then beginning with my very first pet; a Grey shorthair named Smokey! I have owned 5 dogs, 4 cats, and 3 horses since age 7. Currently, I have a thoroughbred horse named Ray, a husky mix and two cats. I even had a hedgehog at one time! I have extensive experience with many animals of all shapes and sizes. The first thing that attracts me to a person while out and about is their dog! I am flexible and have super reliable transportation (my own vehicle). I love all animals and I treat them as my own. Feel free to ask any questions or inquire about future care of your furry friends! Prior to beginning my current job, I had been exclusively working with animals, management and care, including two farms with horses, goats, cats, chickens, and dogs. I currently work a very flexible schedule, where I work from home 3/5 days a week. My weekends are generally free when I am not traveling for one of my other side hustles! The remainder of my time is open for me to enjoy my own pets and be a resource for other owners who need their furry friends taken care of. I do not offer in home boarding out of enhanced safety precautions with my own dog. I limit how many bookings I have at once so I can dedicate time to getting to know your pets and spending adequate time with them. I will never bring another animal with me for a drop in/walk visit. I am also very experienced in wound/injury care.
About: I have always loved dogs and had my own, but I started caring for other people’s dogs at around 13 years old. In early 2022, I started working at the doggy daycare/boarding facility I currently work at, and I am now a manager there. I am responsible for feeding, bathing, administering medication, playing with and cleaning up after dogs of all different breeds, temperaments, ages and sizes, and I couldn’t be more passionate about my job. I currently work full time (at a dog kennel), and my schedule is consistent but switches days every week. I know my schedule very far out in advance so it should be easy to work with! I have 2 dogs at home that are well trained but not very friendly with other dogs, so at home boarding does not work for me. However, at your home, I can work with whatever system you have going for your dogs already, whether that be a crate training system or something different. I have plenty of experience from my current job and can meet all the needs you and your furry friend need to be satisfied:)
About: I have experience taking care of dogs of varying sizes and ages as well as cats. My care-taking has included regular walking and feeding as well as providing oral medications and bathing as needed. I love animals, and would love to meet and care for yours to provide you peace of mind! I'm currently a college-student, but my scedule is very flexible. I can stay overnights to provide all-day care as needed, or arrive in the mornings and leave in the evenings. I can work both weekdays and weekends, so whatever is most convenient for you will work great for me! I will maintain your pet's schedule according to your pet's needs. I will feed, walk, play, and give medication as needed to make sure your pet stays as happy and healthy as possible while you are away.

About: I have experience with large dogs and small dogs and love spending time with animals. I am currrently without animals at the moment which leaves more time for me to help others! I work full time but have availability some afternoons and evenings and also weekends. My job is also flexible so I’m able to take lunch breaks and work from home most days. I can work with your schedule and be flexible to what you and your animals need. Please just let me know what you’re looking for and we can work together to make that happen!
About: Pets will always have a special place in my heart. I dont have any kids so all my time goes into my fur baby's and I will treat yours like my own <3 My schedule is always open so I can check in on your pet whenever they need me. Also if you need a walk or potty break I always available to do so I will always makes sure your pet is having a safe and fun experience. Whether they are at there own home or mine they will always have an eye on them.
About: Hello! My name is Alicia and I have had my own furry companions or cared for furry companions since I was a young child. I currently own my own rescue shelter and am very qualified to care for yours as well. I am a shift work firefighter/paramedic and only work 8 days a month. So the days I place on my availability schedule I am typically home. I may run an errand or two but can work that around the needs/wants of my clients. If I was to care for your furry companion I would make sure they are fed and have plenty of water. If they require anything special or extra I can manage that as well. I will play with them and spend time with them so they can get some wiggles and energy out. I can take them on a walk and make sure they go potty.
About: I’m the person people call when their animals need real care — not just a walk around the block. I regularly foster puppies, kittens, and medical-case animals, so I’m used to everything from bottle babies to pets who need meds, deworming, wound care, and structured routines. Nothing fazes me. I work in animal care, and I’m hands-on every day with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. I’m big on structure, safety, and making sure your pet feels secure, not stressed. Whether your dog is a stage-five clinger, a shy baby deer, or a chaos gremlin, I’ve probably fostered one just like them. I work a flexible bartending job but with the accompaniment of my boyfriend your furry friend will get the upmost attention and care! We follow strict routine that we customize to our current client or foster. I respect and reinforce owners boundaries. My home is optimized for animal safety and with my extensive animal care knowledge I am confidently able to provide a safe and structured environment.
About: I’ve had animas my entire life from dogs to chickens, rabbits, a chinchilla, turtles, a bearded dragon, cats, and more! Dogs hold a special place in my heart. I’ve trained with dogs my whole life. I worked at a dog kennel for 7 years, trained dogs professionally for 4, and recently graduated from an accredited dog training school called Starmark! I have also been trusted and recommended by many people who know me well and they have all given nothing but good feedback and compliments, I take pride in my animal care! I am currently between jobs after graduating and so I have a lot of free time to dedicate towards helping people and animals! You may message me with any further inquiries or questions you might have! While I do not have a fenced in yard, I am still very capable of providing lots of enrichment for dogs! My dogs go to parks, they walk on long lines outside to give them a lot of space, we go on sniffy walks, they get lick mats, enrichment toys, mental games, training, and so much more! My yard is also very large featuring a large in ground pool (fenced in) and multiple large areas of grass and lots of woods behind my house! I also have chickens that while kept in a secure, separate area, help keep the tick population minimal!
About: I grew up with dogs and would help care for them, from walking, to feeding and bathing. I've also helped friends with theirs. I've cared for dogs as small as pugs and dachshunds to as big as collies and pitbulls. I work part time and have a very flexible employer! I'm willing to stop by anytime from 8am to 2am and am willing to house-sit as well. I do not offer boarding at my own home but if you asked anyone who knows me theyd tell you that I'm very cleanly, organized and respectful. I will always do my best to adhear to any instructions you leave for your baby and I do have experience kennaling big dogs.
“Caitlyn was wonderful with my dad's dog. She was on time, reliable, stayed in good communication with great pics to show how much the dog enjoyed her walk and play time. It was a huge help, since my dad has had health challenges which interfered with good dog walks. Five stars!”
About: Hello! I have been housesitting for about 5 years now for horses, dogs, cats, and more. I have experience in first aid and medication administering if needed. As well as spending my youth in 4-H and working in animal based settings, I am very knowledgeable of proper care. I strive to bring a positive energy around all animals I’m currently working part time, and I am in college part time as well. I am happy to work around both our schedules as I can be flexible! Any time spent with animals is time well spent for me! I am happy to continue whatever schedule/habits you like to keep your pets on while you’re away. I have learned so much about proper care over the years, and I will ensure your pet is happy and healthy!
About: I have a lovely home in St Mary’s County with a fenced in back yard overlooking three acres. My family has always had dogs and it wouldn’t be home without them! We have three friendly beagle mixes, ages 2, 3 and 4. I worked full time for 28 years as a counselor for folks with disabilities and took an early retirement in order to be home for my middle school age son. I love walking and playing with pups, who make our lives much better through their loving companionship. Before our current dogs, I have raised three other family dogs and three cats, a love bird, four parakeets, fish and a bearded dragon! I have pet sat for several friends as well and enjoy it!

“My dogs had a great stay! Denise even got my picky dog to eat from a dish. I have a very hard time with. Her eating. The pictures of my dogs relaxing with the family gave me peace of mind so that I could enjoy my vacation. I would highly recommend Denise.”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Marco and Polo! From the moment we dropped them off, we felt completely comfortable knowing they were in caring and loving hands. She kept us updated, treated them like family, and clearly paid attention to their individual personalities and needs. Marco and Polo came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for — which says everything. Sarah went above and beyond, and her kindness and professionalism truly stood out. It’s hard to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, but Sarah made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and attentive sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you again, Sarah, for taking such wonderful care of our boys!”

“I love love LOVE having CiCi care for my fur baby Charli! She stayed four nights without her baby shadow, my other spoiled pooch, and she enjoyed outdoor play, made new friends, and even got a manicure and pedicure! I always feel confident leaving my dogs in her care because she cares for them as if they are her own. I recommended her recently to my neighbor for her puppy and she is also pleased with the care she received. We will continue to use her for our extended stay needs for sure!”
“Nikki is absolutely amazing. My dog is very nervous around people, she did not rush him. Initially, I reached out to have her handle some dinners a couple of times a year but then I had an unexpected death in the family that required me to go out of town for seven days. She was wonderful working around my schedule. We received multiple updates showing how happy he is hanging with her family and dogs. This meant the world to us knowing he was is such good hands.”
“This was our second time having Tanita and Terrence care for our fur baby. It's a good feeling when you are pleased with the care and service Tanita and Terrence provide, but when our fur baby expresses excitement before they opened the door I knew he was in good hands. Will use their services again”

“I highly recommend Melanie and Randy to care for your pets! Our dog,Pax, can only have a certain type of dog toy, since he is a heavy chewer, and Melanie made sure that he would only have non-destructable toys to play with. She also gave updates with pictures to let me know how Pax was settling in. I felt very comfortable with Melanie and Randy caring for Pax and will definitely rebook with them on the future.”
“Lindsay took such great care of my pup, Marley, over the holidays! She went above and beyond getting Marley a toy (her new favorite) for Christmas, making adorable ornaments, replacing a sweater that got damaged, and sending daily picture and video updates. In every photo, Marley looked so happy and well entertained, and it gave me complete peace of mind knowing she was truly loved and treated like family. I’m so grateful for the care, thoughtfulness, and communication, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can fully trust!”

“Seyla provided TOP TIER service over the weekend while I was away. This was my first time leaving Jax with anyone and I had an idea that he would do well with my 130lb Germanese. But he far surpassed my expectations. I am so grateful for the peace of mind I was afforded knowing Jax was in good hands. From the daily hiking adventure videos to the nightly progress reports...I never had to guess if my big baby was adjusting well or blending in well with the pack. Thank you thank you thank you, Seyla!! and the camera footage... totally James Bond!! Jax can't wait to come back and visit again.”
“Erwin is reliable, trustworthy and went above and beyond to take care of Rho’s needs. It was apparent from the moment he interacted with my dog , I knew that he Rho was going to enjoy his time there. In addition, his knowledge regarding all aspects of canine care is extensive and helpful. I am so relieved that I found someone who I can trust with my fur baby. I received daily updates, which was awesome. I already have shared his profile with other dog owners that I know. He will definitely be getting my business again!!!”

You treated him like he was your own, allowing him to be a lap dog as big as he is. He loves to be next to people. You provided us with pictures and updates on how he was doing. We enjoyed our trip, knowing he was being well taken care of. Elizabeth, you went out of your way to help us stay calm when our flight was significantly delayed. We will definitely use your services again.”

Dee is awesome, she was extremely patient with my two poodles and sent me daily updates on their feedings, walks, daily behavior, etc. I was a little worried when I dropped them off but Dee made me feel more comfortable after she sent me updates & assured me they were doing well. After picking them up, my fur babies were happy & relaxed. I will definitely use Dee J. services again.”
