“Sadie did really well staying with Jacob and Megan – with getting older, she has some anxiety when she’s not at home and can be a little 'stubborn'. They were very accommodating and I appreciated the extra effort. I would definitely use them again to watch Sadie!”

“Gisel and her family took great care of my girl Kola. Kola had a case of severely itchy paws pop up the day before we were set to leave town. I was able to get some meds from the vet before we left. I let Gisel know what was going on with Kola, as she was licking and chewing her paws and they were very red. I kept socks on her paws and gave her Benadryl in between the meds from the vet. Gisel also kept this up for the four days Kola stayed with her family. I was so thankful and appreciative of the extra care Gisel and her family gave Kola. Kola’s itchy paws popped up so last minute and Gisel assured me she would take great care of her and she did just that! I would definitely use Gisel again for Kola!”

“Colin is a responsible and dependable person who took care of my kitty on two occasions. Unfortunately he did not have the chance to interact with her because she is very shy. He did follow instructions regarding feeding etc. I recommend his services.”
“Brandon and Mary C. were absolutely wonderful with Millie! They dropped-in Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday and went above and beyond every single visit. They made sure she got outside, spent time playing with her, practiced tricks with her, and even took lots of pictures so we could see how she was doing. It was clear that they genuinely cared about her and wanted her to have a fun, happy visit each time. We came home knowing Millie was well taken care of, and that gave us such peace of mind. We would absolutely recommend Brandon and Mary C. and will definitely be booking them again! 🐾❤️”

“Stephanie was amazing! Very professional, communicated well, and was overall very attentive with our boys. Our AC went out halfway through the week, and she helped us troubleshoot the problem from 3 states away. She also made sure to check on the cats and make sure the house wasn’t too hot without the AC. Overall, we had a great experience and we plan to book with her again for our next trips as well!!”

We love going on walks, spending time outside, playing, and giving lots of cuddles. Your dog will be treated like part of our family and will have plenty of opportunities for playtime and enrichment—and they may even go home knowing a new trick or two! I know how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for your pet, so I’ll keep you updated throughout their stay with photos and messages. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention while you’re gone. I currently work full time at home. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend plenty of time with the dogs in my care. Between myself and my family, your pup will receive lots of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout their stay. I also do my best to maintain their normal feeding, potty, and sleep routine so they feel comfortable while away from home. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always a priority.

We were nervous leaving him with someone for the first time but after meeting Tyler we were sure he was a perfect choice. We will definitely call on him again.”
About: What sets me apart is my six years of experience caring for my rescue dog, who is sensitive and shy. This has taught me patience, gentle handling, and how to create a calm environment tailored to each dog’s unique needs. I’m especially good at working with dogs that require extra reassurance and care. Working part-time from home allows me to keep a flexible routine for the pets I care for. I’m home most of the day, so I can follow their schedule closely — from walks and feeding times to playtime and rest — making sure they always feel safe and loved. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, pets are always supervised, have access to fresh water, and enjoy a calm, pet-friendly environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely and make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times.
About: Certified Dog Trainer & Professional Pet Spoiler I’ve been caring for animals professionally for over 10 years—basically, I’m the Mary Poppins of pets (minus the umbrella, plus a lot more treats). I work remotely, which means I have plenty of time to shower your furry, feathery, or finned friends with attention while you’re away. I share my life with my own dog, Roux, who would need to join me for overnight house sitting—she’s well-mannered, charming, and believes she’s the CEO of the operation. Specialties include: • Raising & training puppies (basic commands, potty, & crate training) • Senior pet care • Dogs with anxiety • Administering medications • Cat care (yes, even the sassy ones) • Rodent care (mice, guinea pigs, bunnies—you name it) • Basic fish tank maintenance (I’ve never lost a guppy on my watch) I work remotely which gives me some flexibility to care for your pup. I prefer overnight stays at the clients home with the ability to come home to work during the day but may be able to bring my work to you. I care for my clients pets exactly the same as their owner and better! I love them like my own. An in home pet sitter is a great way to keep your pets routine so they are less stressed while you are away.

About: Very experienced pet sitter. I specialize in Boarding services at a very affordable price. I also offer budget options as well. I feel like everyone should be entitled to pet services that fits their financial needs. I am currently a stay at home mom for the next 4-5 years, so I have more than enough free time on my hands at the moment. I have a huge fenced park right behind my apartments so they are able to play all day as needed. In addition to the park, I have a ton of space in my apartment and a friendly dog of my own who loves to play. I have a variety of dog/cat treats and toys!
About: Hello there! I am Sam! What makes me a good canadate to watch your furry family member? Well, in my family there has been an animal companion for as long as I can remember. We have had dogs, gerbils, and fish! I have even been described as having potential to become a crazy cat lady. I have had my fair share of exsperience with older dogs who need special care as my own dog was blind the last couple years of her life and I have the rudimentarys of training dogs as I trainded both my blind dog and my current dog sit, down, stay, come, paw, spin, leave-it, and the like. Above all I look forward to spending time with some new furry friends. Currently, I am working part time and I have my own dog, Stormy. So, I am used to the daily tasks of animal care and adding your pet into the mix would'nt change much! On days where I don't work I stay home or have the ablity to take my dog to the dog park or for a long walk. On days I do work I'm gone for no more than six hours. I live in an apartment but I have a big safe neighborhood to walk your dog in as well as a dog park very close by for even more play. I have my own dog, Stormy to keep your dog company on walks or at home. I also have the ability to crate my dog wether the two need some space or they don't mix well. A safe enviroment is my top priority.
About: Avid pit-bull lover, but have taken care of a variety of breeds (mouthy huskies are my cup of tea). Currently own a 4 yr old mixed GP/terrier, rescued as a puppy and have been raised in home. Crate training, basic commands, potty training. Very familiar with positive reinforcement and am happy to incorporate it. I currently work full time in Baltimore city and am working on my graduate degree (online). While I’m mostly available on weekends, my schedules are flexible and often change with the seasons. Have a dog park and trail within walking distance of my own home. Am familiar with parks and dog-friendly walking/hiking trails around the Bel Air area.
About: Hi! My name is MaKenzi and I have had pets as long as I can remember, I grew up with two pitbulls rescues, two smaller dogs, and an older cat that I assumed most of the care for as both parents worked full time jobs. Taking care of multiple animals at one time requires a lot of energy and the ability to organize the things they need well but I learned very quickly! Since I have lived on my own I have helped friends and coworkers with taking care of their beloved fur babies while they’re on vacation or just need an extra hand with their pets. In the last year I have rescued my own kitten and I have absolutely spoiled her with all of the patience, love, affection, and extra care that her heart could desire.
“Amrita was an amazing sitter. Our two dogs (chocolate lab & chihuahua) can be a handful, and she took great care of them during her drop-in. She followed all dog and house requests, was punctual, and communicated with us the entire time. We look forward to her watching our boys overnight in a few weeks.”
