“The sweetest people! They agreed to take my puppy less than a week before my trip(after I got canceled on and started stressing). I was super nervous since this was the first time leaving him but I wrote instructions and I feel as though they followed every single one! I got picture updates as requested and when they had questions they asked. He got plenty of playtime and outdoor/potty time! They also didn't mind us bringing our crate to their home since were are crate training snd he sleeps in there. I will definitely use them again in the future!

We are incredibly thankful for her dependability and trustworthiness. We know that he gets treated as well as one of Pearl's own and we will count it a blessing to have her care for him again.”
“Where do I start!? This was our first time going away and having to leave our Megan! She’s an elder fur baby and we couldn’t think of anyone who would properly take care of her.

I am so pleased with her service and I will definitely be using Barbra in the future! Thanks a MILLION Barbra we appreciate you more than you know!”

I’m confident handling cats of all temperaments from shy or senior kitties to playful kittens and spicy personalities.

I’m skilled at administering oral medications, eye drops, and topical treatments, as well as caring for senior cats and those with special dietary or medical needs. Whether your cat wants playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone to keep their litter box fresh and food bowl full, I’ve got you covered!

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since my high school days. I love caring for and building relationships with dogs because they are truly like your best friend when they get to know and love you. Currently I work from home and for the most part make my own schedule every day. I am looking to build loving relationships with every pet that I care for so every owner can confidently put their trust in me to bring their furry friends back to me anytime they need me to take care of them. Me and my husband love dogs! We have a doggy park inside of our residence as well as a lovely community of people who walk their dogs everyday I’m sure your pet will meet some friends as we go out for walks and play at the park. Please let me know if you have any special food or any other request that you need me to accommodate to ensure that your furry baby is okay so I can be prepared as much as I can to welcome them into our home. I make my own schedule every day so i am pretty much free Monday through Sunday each week. I will make sure I update the time slots that are booked as clients start scheduling their appointments. All small and medium-sized dogs will be more than welcomed to roam freely around my living room kitchen area and are allowed to sit and lay on the couches as well. The floors are hardwood so even if they have an accident of pooping or peeing on the floor it will be alot easier for me to clean up on the hard floors than the carpeted areas. They will be allowed to come into my bedroom or any other room as long as I am in the room supervising them. I will take them outside to potty every 2 hours timed from the time they arrive until their scheduled time of leaving. You can feel free to bring their favorite toys they love to play with but I will also be purchasing brand new toys that I'm sure your dogs/cats will love to play with.

About: I am a recent graduate of the University of Delaware with a Bachelor of Science in Pre-Veterinary Medicine! Through my education, I have developed a strong foundation in animal behavior, welfare, health, nutrition, and safe handling practices. I have hands-on experience working with animals in both veterinary and pet care settings, caring for dogs and cats of various sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My background has taught me that while animals may not be able to speak, they communicate in many ways through their body language, behaviors, and individual personalities. I believe that understanding these signals and recognizing how each pet communicates is an important part of providing safe, comfortable, and compassionate care. As a pet parent myself to my 2-year-old cat, Theo, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member and how stressful it can feel to leave your pet in someone else's care. My goal is to provide owners with peace of mind while giving each pet the attention, patience, and care that they deserve. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate your pet's needs and dedicate quality time to their care. I currently am only booking walks and check-ins which can include playtime, enrichment, feeding routines, and companionship. I am happy to work with owners to maintain the routines and habits their pets are comfortable with. While availability may vary, I welcome last-minute requests whenever possible, as I understand that life can be unpredictable and plans can change. Trust and safety are my top priorities at all times when caring for pets. My background in Pre-Veterinary Medicine and hands-on animal care has taught me the importance of proper handling, observing behavior, and promoting animal welfare. I understand that even the calmest animals are guided by instincts and may respond differently depending on their environment and comfort level. Approaching each pet with patience, respect, and awareness is essential to building trust and helping them feel safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I would want for my own pets. I am happy to follow all instructions regarding feeding, medication administration, exercise, enrichment, and any specific routines your pet follows. I welcome as much detail as you would like to provide, as understanding your pet's individual needs helps me provide the best possible care.
About: I’ve been around animals all my life, & I can’t wait until I’m in a situation when I can finally have my own dog again. I’m knowledgeable about pet care & animal behavior, have great attention to detail, & enjoy learning more. I love every critter I meet (although I am partial towards chihuahuas & pits) & I have yet to meet a dog that didn’t like me. My family always had dogs growing up, & I have experience caring for a variety of dogs of different ages. I’ve only had two pet dogs that went through their entire life cycle with me, & my most recent doggo was a shitzu who came to me when she was 11. I spent her last few years trying to make her as comfortable & happy as possible. That’s the goal for every animal I care for. While this is obviously a job, & I do need the money, I genuinely enjoy getting to be helpful, to make someone’s life easier, & to, of course, spend time with dogs. I figure if I have to have a side hustle, it should at least be rewarding!! Thanks for reading!! I am a waitress- I usually work full-time, but it’s the slow season & we have a server surplus at the moment. I’m currently only scheduled for 3 night shifts a week, so my schedule is pretty open. Even on the days I do work, I would be able to check-in & care for the dogs before I go in, & can check on them afterwards as well if needed. Basically, I currently have plenty of time to fit in pet care. I am comfortable staying at someone else’s place; it would be nice to have a change of scenery every once in a while. Of course, I will treat your house with respect & be sure to leave it as it was when I arrived! If they wanna chill & sleep, that’s fine with me, but if they’re really active & need to play, I will play fetch & tug-o-war for hours on end. I have a car & supplies to take care of a dog if it is needed (snacks, poop bags, leash, blankets, first aid kit). I’m familiar with dog breeds & behavior & am aware of different training techniques so I’m not worried about being able to manage any dog- like getting them in their crate at the end of the night, or establishing a relationship with them, etc. I will care for your pet the way you want, but above all I will always care for an animal with the utmost respect & love, 💕
About: Hi, I’m Sophie! I attended a vocational trade school where I studied Animal Science for three years. I gained hands-on experience caring for a variety of small and large animals, while learning proper handling and restraints, health and behavior, as well as how to safely administer oral and injectable medications. Through my training, I became certified in animal first aid and CPR. I also have experience caring for puppies/kittens, senior animals and pets with special needs, so I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and maintaining consistent routines. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, and also worked at a kennel in high school, so I have spent years caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Because of that, I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I give the best care and attention that I possibly can. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing in the yard, relaxing on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, we are committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. We will provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving attentive, reliable care. We understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in the care of someone else, and our goal is to make that experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your furry family member! :) Hey! I’m Dylan and I’m a lifelong animal lover with a ton of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up on a farm and have always had multiple pets at a time, so I learned responsibility and animal care at a young age. I currently have 3 dogs and 4 cats of my own, and I love spending time with them—whether it’s going on runs with my dogs or cuddling up with my cats. I’m calm, patient, and always make sure animals feel safe and cared for. I treat every animal like they’re my own, with love and respect. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, some playtime, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away! I’m currently working a full-time job Monday through Thursday, from 6am until anywhere between 3pm and 5pm, depending on the day. I have Saturdays and Sundays off, and occasionally Fridays. Sophie works 2pm to 10pm a few days a week, her schedule is different every week. Since our schedules are opposite and Sophie has a bit more free time, one of us is always available to spend a good amount of time with your pet. The first thing we do when taking care of our own pets, or others pets, is let them out to go to the bathroom. Next, we prioritize feeding and medicating (if necessary) and cleaning and refilling all water bowls. Once everything important is taken care of, we then spend quality time with them, whether it’s playing fetch, cuddling or going for a walk. Before we leave, we make sure we let them back outside for a good while to make sure they take care of all of their business.
About: Hi, I am Becky and I am a lifelong animal lover. I have always had pets in my home since birth. My husband shares my passion for animals and has served as a Vet Tech in the Army. As we have traveled the world, we have watched pets of all ages and sizes. My kids love having furry friends visit and enjoy joining me when walking the dog. So much so, my daughter's first word was "kitten." In our home, we have a beautiful black lab, tortie kitty, and a handful of geckos that live in our backyard. Now that my three children are in school, I would love to assist you with dog walking, cat and dog boarding, and daily check-ins for any of your furry family members.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life from small pets to large dogs and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I grew up helping friends and neighbors with their pets, which gave me a solid foundation in handling dogs of all sizes and personalities. Now, I have a 1.5 year old Lab named Knox who’s full of energy and love. He keeps me active, patience’s, and always on my toes! I also have a 9 year old cat named Levi, who brings a calm, loving balance to our home. Because of them, I understand how important it is to trust someone who will treat your pet like family Whether your dog needs a long walk, some playtime, or just a calm presence while you’re away, I’m here to help. I’m reliable, communicative, and will always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for as if they were mine. Let me know what your pet needs. I’m happy to accommodate special routines or preferences! I’m a full-time nursing student with plenty of free time during the day, so I’m great for helping out while you’re at work. I know how important it is for pets to get attention and exercise in the middle of those long days. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, or just some company to keep your animals happy and relaxed on your busy days. I have empathy for those who having to leave their animals so safety is a top priority for me when pet sitting. I will always use a leash when on walks and at home if there is no fenced in yard available. Also would like to know if the pet has any special instructions and their likes/ dislikes.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine bond I build with each animal. I don’t just “watch” pets—I spend quality time with them so they feel safe and loved. I’m comfortable with high-energy puppies who need structure and play, as well as older pets who need slower, attentive care. I follow routines exactly and make sure your pet feels at home, even when you’re not. i’m available whenever you need me! i’m a part time server at a restaurant, so we can come up with a schedule that works for us both! and of course your pet. i will follow all instructions left to me! i will put your pets needs first, and make sure they are happy and content at all times!
About: A lot of my clients and friends call me the animal whisperer because I have yet to met an animal that doesn't like me. I have grown up with animals, specifically dogs, all my life. Growing up with animals has made me realize that your pet is very much a part of the family so I treat each and every pet as if it were my own - with love and care. Animals have shown me the meaning of unconditional love without judgment. I work from home so I’m pretty flexible and pretty much make myself available for your pet. I especially love having an excuse to get out of the house to take care of your adorable furry pet :) I’m pretty good at handling multiple pets at once and can hold my own. I’ve handled walking multiple pets on leashes at the same time. I’ve handled a house full of pets. I watch them and give them the love they need while I’m with them :) no animal or animal task is too difficult for me.
About: Welcome and thank you for your consideration! I encourage any questions you may have about the type of care I provide or my experience. I strive to be a dependable, reliable, trustworthy, and knowledgable caretaker. I believe in providing the level of care, respect, and attention to detail that I would personally insist upon for my own pets. Why I may be a good fit for you: ✨ Previous experience working in a veterinary clinic, including administering oral, topical, and injected medications. ✨ Experienced with "difficult" cases such as fearful, nervous, or spicy personalities, senior /disabled pet care, or homes with multiple animal species. ✨ I take on limited numbers of clients at a time to ensure that I'm able to commit undivided attention instead of rushing to beat the clock. ✨ 100% supportive of indoor and outdoor cameras -- the more the merrier! I work my primary job from home so my schedule is able to adjust pretty well to accommodate all of my client's schedules and needs. I do not over book myself to avoid issues with emergencies, other visits running over time, etc. I do start a timer at the beginning of the visits, but I do not intently stare at it or scramble to leave as soon as the time is up. I have a questionnaire that I ask all current and future clients to fill out. It asks about feeding, schedule, behavior, quirks, exercise, hiding places, trash bins, etc. to ensure that I can be prepared to handle anything that comes up. For example, I follow your instructions to the T with regards to feeding, whether it's wet, dry, raw, mixed, home cooked, or something in between.
About: Growing up I was always involved with the care and grooming of my mother's AKC American Cocker spaniel kennel and quickly fell in love with dogs. I've helped deliver 3 liters of puppies ensuring every fine detail of the process was done properly. I've assisted and led many rescue missions for strays and wildlife. I currently care for three rescue rabbits Layla, Monty, Zuko and one beagle/JackRussell mix, Copper. I'm lucky to have all my pets in my life and they truly enrich our lives for the better. I currently accepted a new job opportunity therefore my schedule is a little odd right now but message me and we can work out the details there. on a leash/harness or lead line in the yard. I do walks and or hikes- weather permitted. Allow outside with supervised fenced in playtime with toys
About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes, along with some that were medically challenged. I also have experience with training dogs. I currently have a very flexible job so can be available any day of the week. I can do anything from morning visits all the way until end of the day :-) I have a fenced in yard and a very friendly fur baby myself who can keep yours company! I also have the ability to crate whenever needed.
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since my high school days. I love caring for and building relationships with dogs because they are truly like your best friend when they get to know and love you. Currently I work from home and for the most part make my own schedule every day. I am looking to build loving relationships with every pet that I care for so every owner can confidently put their trust in me to bring their furry friends back to me anytime they need me to take care of them. Me and my husband love dogs! We have a doggy park inside of our residence as well as a lovely community of people who walk their dogs everyday I’m sure your pet will meet some friends as we go out for walks and play at the park. Please let me know if you have any special food or any other request that you need me to accommodate to ensure that your furry baby is okay so I can be prepared as much as I can to welcome them into our home. I make my own schedule every day so i am pretty much free Monday through Sunday each week. I will make sure I update the time slots that are booked as clients start scheduling their appointments. All small and medium-sized dogs will be more than welcomed to roam freely around my living room kitchen area and are allowed to sit and lay on the couches as well. The floors are hardwood so even if they have an accident of pooping or peeing on the floor it will be alot easier for me to clean up on the hard floors than the carpeted areas. They will be allowed to come into my bedroom or any other room as long as I am in the room supervising them. I will take them outside to potty every 2 hours timed from the time they arrive until their scheduled time of leaving. You can feel free to bring their favorite toys they love to play with but I will also be purchasing brand new toys that I'm sure your dogs/cats will love to play with.
About: As a dedicated and experienced dog sitter, I understand the importance of providing excellent care to furry family members. With a lifelong love for dogs and years of experience working with them, I have honed my skills in providing exceptional care for each dog I encounter. I pride myself on my ability to create a safe and nurturing environment for dogs, where they can feel comfortable, loved, and well-cared for. I am patient, kind, and attentive, and I always make sure to provide plenty of playtime and exercise, as well as plenty of cuddles and affection. One of the things that sets me apart as a dog sitter is my commitment to communication. I understand that pet owners want to know how their furry family members are doing, and I make sure to provide regular updates and photos throughout the duration of the stay. I also make myself available to answer any questions or concerns that may arise. Above all, I am passionate about dogs and the joy that they bring to our lives. When you book with me, you can rest assured that your furry family member will be in the best possible hands, and that they will receive the love and care that they deserve. So why not book with me today and give your dog the best possible care while you're away? Since I work from home, we have extra time to take multiple walks a day. We will go outside for at least 2 hours a day. I live next to a lake with a walk path so we enjoy playing outside as much as we can. I live in a house with a fenced yard for the doggies to roam around. Your pet will be let out every 2-3 hours or as much as needed and instructed.

“Ollie felt right at home. I loved the large fenced yard for off-leash exercise and that I got lots of picture updates. He enjoyed the extra company from other pups and children too. Thank you!!”
“The sweetest people! They agreed to take my puppy less than a week before my trip(after I got canceled on and started stressing). I was super nervous since this was the first time leaving him but I wrote instructions and I feel as though they followed every single one! I got picture updates as requested and when they had questions they asked. He got plenty of playtime and outdoor/potty time! They also didn't mind us bringing our crate to their home since were are crate training snd he sleeps in there. I will definitely use them again in the future! Thank you so much for taking Waffle into your home and treating him like your own!”
“Alexandra and her family took amazing care of our sometimes nervous dog bella and sent her back to us as happy as we left her. As caring and competent a dog sitter as you'll find.”
“Pearl provided outstanding care for our dog once again. Based on how excited is he to be with her, it's obvious that she spoils him with attention. We are incredibly thankful for her dependability and trustworthiness. We know that he gets treated as well as one of Pearl's own and we will count it a blessing to have her care for him again.”
“Abby and her family were amazing! They took great care of my pup Maxx while I was away and sent plenty of videos and pictures of all the loving and play time he had. Maxx loves kids so he was spoiled rotten having friends to play with and keep him entertained. I will happily book with Abby again and recommend her to anyone.”

“Yvonne took such great care of my YorkChon Kali. She was available to keep Kali overnight for a last minute getaway and sent me regular updates & pics. It was very reassuring & helped both me & my husband relax knowing that she was being well cared for. I highly recommend Yvonne. Thanks again Yvonne! ☺️”
“Jessica was very accommodating throughout the process. She even agreed to having our furbabies meet before the stay so I was comfortable with their likeness to each other. She was also very accommodating and get me updated on my little Oliver was doing. Would definitely book again with Jessica :)”
About: I have had dogs my whole life and have experience walking large breeds (Dobermans, Rottweilers, etc..). I’ve taken care of other people’s animals and absolutely love caring for dogs. I work full time but work from home Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday so more flexible on those days. I am usually free from 4 PM onwards each day. Available all day most week days. We have a large yard that is partially fenced by trees and is large enough for any dog to run around. Our house has three stories so there is more than enough room for dogs to play around.
“My dog Barkley was so well cared for by Megan & Jacob! I could tell he felt comfortable right from the start, and I appreciated their great communication before and during Barkley’s time with them.”
“Kwame took amazing care of Tanner for us while we were away. Tanner had lots of fun playing with the other dogs and came back happy and tired out. We will definitely be bringing him back in the future!”

I can easily create your dog if need to .
About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 10 years, but my love for them started long before that. I grew up with dogs and have always been around them, learning how to care for and understand their different personalities and needs. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m patient, dependable, and always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I work currently work part-time now and attend college part-time, giving me flexibility for pet care. I’m available weekdays and every other weekend, except Tuesday and Thursday evenings. I have a fully fenced yard and a sweet one-year-old purebred Cocker Spaniel who is calm, friendly, and loves safely playing with other dogs too. If you are not comfortable with your dog being around another dog, I am more than happy to do services in your own home!
“I would highly recommend Jen! I have basically never left my dog at home alone. I chose to have Jen watch him since I didn’t want to leave my dog for the first time at home for 8 hours or more. I had a good feeling about her. She was on time, ready, and happy to take my dog. In talking to Jen I could tell that she has experience with dogs and that she loves them! She reassured me when I left him with her and let me know what she had planned. Jen took pictures during their walk and at the park. She sent me pictures throughout the afternoon and evening. My dog was happy and not anxious at all. When I came to pick him up she was already downstairs with my dog and his things in hand. He was very happy. I will definitely book Jen again next time I’m in the D.C. area!”
