“Great communication and flexibility. They also offered a half price trial overnight which was a great idea. I was uncertain how Riley would do with young children as she’s never had experience with kids younger than middle school age and having this trial before a week long stay made me more comfortable. Riley had a good time with them and Dunkin. We’ve booked that week long stay.”

“Thomas and his sons took great care of Tucker while I was away. He responded quickly every time I reached out and Tucker seemed right at home when I picked him up at the end of his stay!”

“Outstanding dog sitter! My dog had a blast and Pamela C. was wonderful about documenting it through photos and sharing. Excellent communication and clearly a wonderful dog person. Highly recommend!”


“Pearl and Lanny took great care of our dog for us while we were away. They treated him like he was one of their own, which put our minds totally at ease. Pearl was very attentive to every tidbit of information that we shared with her about our dog's routine, preferences, and quirks, showing how very conscientious she is when she accepts someone else's pet in her care. She graciously arranged for a meet-and-greet before our first booking to confirm that things would work out well, which they did. We received notes from Pearl while we were away, giving us even greater assurance that all was well. Based on an exceptional initial experience, we will be repeat customers. We are very grateful to have some who will care just as well for our four-legged family member as we would during those times when we need or prefer to leave him temporarily. Thank you, Pearl (and Lanny), for being there for us!”

“Coda had an absolutely delightful time with Karen and her dogs and family. He settled right in with him and had a perfect stay from everything I’ve seen. They are wonderful people and I highly recommend them.”

“Briana and Isaiah were amazing with my both Otis. They allowed me, the worried mom, to come and meet their dogs first before the stay started. I was very grateful for that. They took excellent care of him and it was really great to have him stay on a home with a dog loving family instead of a kennel. They also.made sure that I knew that they had his safety in mind at all.times. They were a true God send.”

“Jill and Chad and their boys were great with Piper. I could tell from the minute we had our meet and greet they were a great family and she seemed to fit right in. I got updates and pictures. She had a great time and I know they gave her lots of attention. I felt perfectly comfortable with her staying with them. I would absolutely use them again!!! Great people!!!🐶”

“Jenn and her husband were fantastic! really took care of the pups and went above and beyond to make sure my older dog (who gets anxious when i'm away and doesn't eat) at well and was not stressed. Highly recommend!”

“Tarina was amazing with my puppy who lacks manners and can get into trouble. Most dogsitters require a perfectly behaved dog, and she expertly handled my crazy doodle pup giving her loads of socialozariona sn exercise.”

“I dropped my five-year-old dog off on a Thursday morning and came home on Saturday to pick her up. You could tell she was well cared for from the moment I saw her. Justin and Stephanie sent pictures the entire time and I could tell she was enjoying herself inside and outside. She had space of her own or she could play with all the other dogs that they took very good care of. I will definitely be using Justin and Stephanie again and I would suggest that you do too!”

“You guys are the greatest! First time doing this and you all definitely delivered. The updates with pictand videos I really enjoyed. Pat & bee are awesome and I highly recommend them to watch your fur babies. I look forward to using you guys in December, hopefully yall will be available! Thanks again guys and job well done!!”


“Candice was absolutely exceptional!!! I am very impressed with her service. This was our first time ever leaving our dog with anyone. I felt so comfortable with her, she has good energy and warm smile. She lives on such a beautiful water property and has two cute dogs that look so well taken care of. Her home is so nice and cozy, I felt like my dog was living in luxury for 9 days! My dog seemed right at home immediately at drop off hanging out with her two dogs and didn’t care I was leaving which is rare. While on vacation I received message updates and pictures of my dog that were so cute. Her two sweet daughter’s even spent time with my dog. Maxxie also got a squeaky toy parting gift from Candice. It literally was the perfect family for my dog while we were away it doesn’t get any better than this! I was a peace and knew our boy Maxxie was very well taken care of. She treated my dog like it was her own and that is what you want in a Dog Sitter! I will be a repeat customer!!! I don’t think it gets better than Candice she is the BEST and truly raises the bar high. I highly recommend her!!!”

“Paris, is such a wonderful sitter. My pup, Jayce, really loves her and her fur babies. My mind is always at ease when I have to travel for work and Jayce is in her care. She's also very understanding. A family emergen”

“Sue was great. My dog got along with her two dogs, and had a nice fenced in yard for them to run and play. She kept me informed and sent me a couple of pics over the week. Havre de Grace isis on the way to the Baltimore airport so very convenient drop off snd pick up. I don’t travel Vera often but will reach out the next time I do.”

“Finn had another wonderful stay with Melanie! We loved the picture & video updates and felt at ease while we were away. My dog seems very comfortable at her house and loves playing with her pup!”

“Theresa was great! The meet and greet went really smoothly, and really reassured me that I was leaving our cats in good hands. Theresa offered great help in checking in, feeding, and maintaining a clean environment for our cats while we were gone for a week. She was readily available to talk to and I'd happily request her again for future trips!”


“We felt comfortable trusting our cats with Emily immediately after meeting her. She is very pleasant and thorough. She was also very accommodating adjusting our dates due to illness on our end. We will absolutely book her again!”

“Kyle did a great job taking care of my cat Yngwie! He met with us beforehand to go over things and gave us a very detailed report for every visit he made and also included a picture! He is a very nice young man and we will 100% hire him for the next time we go on vacation. Thanks very much, Kyle!”

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my whole life, and I got my first dog at 16. My dog is a mastiff mix, who was unfortunately a covid puppy, leaving her with little socialisation, causing her to be reactive around other animals. We have both been learning from each other everyday and I have been working with and training her since she was a puppy. Throughout the years she has gotten much more confident in herself; even having dog friends now and a younger puppy sister. I have also worked with senior dogs, adminstering medication as needed and helping assist with activities. I have worked with other animals as well, of all different sizes, so I am confident in my ability to read body language and take care of the dogs as needed I am a full-time college student, who is working part-time, and with a chaotic schedule, finding a job for a business is difficult due to my availibilty. I have several animals of my own, making spending time and taking care of them the highlight of my day. I love and treat animals just as the family they are, so when working with others animals, it feels like more of a reward than a job, which I feel is crucial when being a full-time college student and trying to make a living. All of my animals are family and are treated as such, so when taking care of others dogs, I treat them with the same mindset; providing care, love, fun and respect.

“Kaylee was superb 🥰 very nice Loved our dog 🐕 and which meant a lot she made sure he was well taken care of and made it a point to bound with him. Would highly recommend Kaylee and hope she will be available again. She always posted pictures and was always on time even on a bad weather day she was there 🤗💜”

“Beth is the greatest lady we have ever hired to help us with our Kitties. We look forward to her helping us out in the future. We are so lucky to have found Beth through Rover”

“Rebecca took terrific care of my three cats for over 6 weeks! She was dependable, caring, and communicated wonderfully. Will definitely rebook in the future and highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 8. I’ve had guinea pigs, dogs, and a rabbit. My family currently has one rabbit, Thumper. He is the best! We also have three wonderful dogs…two English cream golden retrievers, Remi and Raven, and a spunky beagle named Snoopy! I was a teacher for 24 years and now I worked in a school library for the past 4 years. I’m trying to make some extra money on the side. I started doing some dog walking/sitting during the summer of ‘25 and have truly enjoyed it! I love being outside and taking walks with the pups or just playing with them inside! I’ve also taken care of cats too. I love spending time with animals! I’m available after 4 p.m. and at night too, during the school year. On the weekends, my schedule is very flexible. Since I work for the school system, my schedule is much more open in the summer time, if you need any help! I can take your dog for a walk, so they can get some exercise. I can also stay and play with your pet! Happy to send pictures and updates too!
About: I've always been the person friends and family trust to look after their pets. I know how important it is to have someone dependable caring for them when you can't be there. Whether it's going for walks, keeping them on their feeding schedule, giving them lots of attention, or administering oral medication when needed, I'm happy to make sure they're comfortable and well cared for. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality and routine because no two pets are the same. My goal is for your pet to feel relaxed and for you to have peace of mind while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I can easily stick to your pet's routine and make sure they don't spend long periods alone. My weekday schedule is very flexible, while my weekend availability is a bit more limited, so I recommend reaching out in advance for weekend bookings. When I'm caring for pets in their own home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal as possible. I know pets are most comfortable in a familiar environment, so I make sure they're fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and, of course, lots of love and attention. I will follow any specific instructions you leave to make sure your pet receives the care they're used to. I also believe communication is important, so I'll send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and doing well. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they're part of my own family, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for until you return.

“Mason was fantastic. Very detail-oriented when learning about our cats and was so great about cleaning up messes and making sure they got the care they needed. Came home to a clean house and happy cats!”

“I am so glad, I chose Cynthia, she provided me with daily pics and updates on my three kitties. So I knew how their day was going. But most off all, we needed her for an unexpected additional drop in and without hesitation she said yes ❤️. This was a life safer.”


About: I have been interested in cats all my life and during the covid years I had finally been able to get one. I take care of my own cats, and because of that I have experience with them. Additionally I have pet sat for a cat who was rescued with feline aids. I have done, and continue to do a lot of research on animals because they are very important to me. I went to an animal orientated program because of my love for animals, and always put their health and happiness first.

“FABULOUS! This was the first time leaving our 4 kitties and Ms. Pearl was gracious in sending pictures for us to see. When I inquired about our senior lady, who always hides from strangers, Ms. Pearl came to my house a 2nd time, found & took her picture to ease my worry. I would highly recommend her.”

About: I have watched over many of my friends and families pets. The dogs I have watched in the past have been moderately large, and could be a bit wild at times but I was able to keep hold of the situation.

I absolutely love animals and even went to a program in high school for them. I am currently free during most times of the week.

About: I have 5 years of experience caring for pets ranging from training puppies to caring for senior and special needs pets. I am comfortable with any breed and competent at administering medications and providing specialty care. I have 100% satisfaction rate across dozens of clients and would love the opportunity to love your pets as much as I love my own. I currently work part time on a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to adapt to your needs. My availability is from 8am to 8pm and I can provide overnight services with advance notice. At your home, I will always walk your dog on your suggested routes and always leashed. If you have a harness, I will always use it.

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: 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

Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm companion nearby, I will make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you are away. I am dependable, attentive, and respectful of each family’s home and pet care preferences. I would be happy to care for your furry family member and give them the same love and attention I would give my own pets! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I’m used to planning my day around feeding times, walks, playtime, litter box care, check-ins, and making sure pets feel comfortable and safe. I enjoy having pets as part of my routine, whether that means starting the day with a walk, stopping by for a midday visit, or spending quiet time with a cat who just wants company nearby. I’m dependable and flexible, and I understand that pets do best when their normal schedule is followed as closely as possible. I’m happy to adjust my routine to match each pet’s needs, whether they need extra attention, medication reminders, playtime, or just someone calm and caring to keep them company while their family is away. I care for pets with patience, respect, and attention to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, medications or special needs, favorite toys, and any house rules. I know pets feel safest when things stay familiar, so I do my best to keep their routine calm and consistent while their family is away. I also treat every home with care and respect. I make sure doors are locked, food and water are refreshed, litter boxes or pet areas are kept clean, and pets are safe before I leave. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, comfort level, and personality, whether they are playful, shy, energetic, independent, or need a little extra reassurance. My goal is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and for owners to feel confident knowing their pets and home are in trustworthy hands.
“I contacted Kyle to walk my dog everyday as I would be away for a month. The process of scheduling with him was great. He came to my house to meet my girl prior to the scheduled walks and they got along very well. Kyle took excellent care of my girl and I loved the pictures/comments he sent of her during their walks. He communicated well and was always readily available. My girl is very high energy and stubborn but Kyle was patient with her and she looked forward to their walks everyday! If I could give Kyle 10 stars, I would! I highly recommend him and will continue to use his services in the future! Thank you again, Kyle!”

About: I have been fostering and dog sitting since I was 17! I have taken care of 12 dogs in the last few years and they were continuous clients. I am able to keep your dog on a schedule if needed, or your dog out for some exercise, or just help out if needed! I am available mornings and early afternoons during the week but can make exceptions on a case by case basis. I am in the military and work full-time. Therefore, I can only take boardings on Fridays and Saturdays. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I have one fur baby to keep your dog company! I live in a luxury apartment complex with a dog park and take my dog on plenty of walks. I take him to the park or to my parents to get exercise too!
About: I've been around dogs my whole life and have been a pet parent for many years to a number of rescue and foster dogs and cats. I have experience with large dogs, elderly dogs, puppies, and dogs with anxiety and separation anxiety. I love being around animals and treat them like my own fur-babies. I currently have two dogs of my own (Gunnar a lab/plott hound mix and Bella a plott hound/coonhound mix). I love to hike so long walks to exercise your pup are not an issue for me. I work from home full time so that gives me lots of flexibility for pet care both weekdays and weekends for house sitting and drop in visits or walks. I can take small dogs in home if they are okay with two other dogs (medium size and large). I don't have a fenced in yard but we take multiple walks per day through our nearby trails. In your home, I respect your house rules and preferences to leave a zero footprint after each sitting. Happy to support any enrichment activities your pet needs and give them lots of love and sniffy walks.

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.

“Pearl has been so amazing!! She responded in minutes and scheduled a meet and greet for my dogs within 24 hours! I needed dog walking for some days and Pearl was so accommodating on such a short notice. My two dogs we enthusiastic when she got them and definitely got great walks. 100% recommend!”

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.

“Great communication and flexibility. They also offered a half price trial overnight which was a great idea. I was uncertain how Riley would do with young children as she’s never had experience with kids younger than middle school age and having this trial before a week long stay made me more comfortable. Riley had a good time with them and Dunkin. We’ve booked that week long stay.”

“Thomas and his sons took great care of Tucker while I was away. He responded quickly every time I reached out and Tucker seemed right at home when I picked him up at the end of his stay!”

“Outstanding dog sitter! My dog had a blast and Pamela C. was wonderful about documenting it through photos and sharing. Excellent communication and clearly a wonderful dog person. Highly recommend!”


“Pearl and Lanny took great care of our dog for us while we were away. They treated him like he was one of their own, which put our minds totally at ease. Pearl was very attentive to every tidbit of information that we shared with her about our dog's routine, preferences, and quirks, showing how very conscientious she is when she accepts someone else's pet in her care. She graciously arranged for a meet-and-greet before our first booking to confirm that things would work out well, which they did. We received notes from Pearl while we were away, giving us even greater assurance that all was well. Based on an exceptional initial experience, we will be repeat customers. We are very grateful to have some who will care just as well for our four-legged family member as we would during those times when we need or prefer to leave him temporarily. Thank you, Pearl (and Lanny), for being there for us!”

“Coda had an absolutely delightful time with Karen and her dogs and family. He settled right in with him and had a perfect stay from everything I’ve seen. They are wonderful people and I highly recommend them.”

“Briana and Isaiah were amazing with my both Otis. They allowed me, the worried mom, to come and meet their dogs first before the stay started. I was very grateful for that. They took excellent care of him and it was really great to have him stay on a home with a dog loving family instead of a kennel. They also.made sure that I knew that they had his safety in mind at all.times. They were a true God send.”

“Jill and Chad and their boys were great with Piper. I could tell from the minute we had our meet and greet they were a great family and she seemed to fit right in. I got updates and pictures. She had a great time and I know they gave her lots of attention. I felt perfectly comfortable with her staying with them. I would absolutely use them again!!! Great people!!!🐶”

“Jenn and her husband were fantastic! really took care of the pups and went above and beyond to make sure my older dog (who gets anxious when i'm away and doesn't eat) at well and was not stressed. Highly recommend!”

“Tarina was amazing with my puppy who lacks manners and can get into trouble. Most dogsitters require a perfectly behaved dog, and she expertly handled my crazy doodle pup giving her loads of socialozariona sn exercise.”

“I dropped my five-year-old dog off on a Thursday morning and came home on Saturday to pick her up. You could tell she was well cared for from the moment I saw her. Justin and Stephanie sent pictures the entire time and I could tell she was enjoying herself inside and outside. She had space of her own or she could play with all the other dogs that they took very good care of. I will definitely be using Justin and Stephanie again and I would suggest that you do too!”

“You guys are the greatest! First time doing this and you all definitely delivered. The updates with pictand videos I really enjoyed. Pat & bee are awesome and I highly recommend them to watch your fur babies. I look forward to using you guys in December, hopefully yall will be available! Thanks again guys and job well done!!”

“Finn had another wonderful stay with Melanie! We loved the picture & video updates and felt at ease while we were away. My dog seems very comfortable at her house and loves playing with her pup!”
