“Kerry and her family took amazing care of my dog Briggs while I was out of town. I got loads of adorable pictures, and he was returned groomed and fluffy with a new bandana. I highly recommend them and will be reaching out again when I travel.”
“Alicia and Randy are wonderful pet hosts!!! The care, attention, professionalism, follow up, and the love they have for their furry clients are just a few examples of superior work. You can instantly tell that they have a genuine love for animals, my Lola was treated with love and great care. I recommend Alicia to anyone that is looking for a safe and loving place for their pets stay. Thank you a million times Alicia, Randy, and their pets Cruz and Azalea for opening your house for Lola.”
“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my dog while I was away. It gave me real peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and capable hands. Your patience, kindness, and attention truly mean a lot, and I could tell my dog felt comfortable and happy with you. I really appreciate the time, effort, and love you put into caring for them. Thank you again for everything!”
“Mav LOVED his time with Christianna. She was so communicative and sent amazing pictures of him all weekend! She kept up with all the updates and made me feel safe! Definitely will rebook!!”
“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.”
“Linda is a kind, reliable, and a wonderful pet sitter. Both my experiences have been totally positive, and I will continue to choose Linda as my preferred pet sitter!”
“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.”
“Christine was a wonderful caregiver to our beagle Molly. She sent daily updates with pictures and videos and let us know how Molly was doing since our dog has some separation anxiety when away from us, but Christine took great care to assure Molly would be okay. I would highly recommend Christine and hope that we'll get to leave Molly in her care again in the future.”
“We are so thankful to have found Kimberly - she lovingly took care of our 2 dogs while we were out of town. One of our pups is almost 16 years old with mobility issues and lots of oral medications, but Kimberly took excellent care of her and all her needs. She updated us with photos multiple times each day, which we greatly appreciated. Thank you so much Kimberly - we would give you 10 stars if we could!”
“Tina was fantastic! She sent me text messages, pictures, and videos of my Boston Terrier, Lee Lee. Tina took Lee Lee to the local dog park for exercise and cuddled with her in the evenings. I don't think my dog missed me at all. I will definitely use Tina in the future.”
“When I picked up Jackson, I was not sure he wanted to leave his vacation with Kathryn and her wonderful family! Sure he was excited to see us, but, then he laid down next to Kathryn as if he was feeling pretty comfortable at her home! She sent photos and write ups daily and this made me feel so much better about leaving him in her care. It was like he knew the family forever! This was the first time we went away without him in 8 years so I was a bit anxious about leaving. I would have no problems leaving him again if I have another opportunity to do so. I highly recommend Kathryn and I know he was very happy being there and well cared for. He enjoyed his daily walks and never missed a meal and perhaps, Me!!!! If there were 10 stars I would click everyone of them!”
About: I provide a calm, structured home environment along with attentive home visits. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I’m home the majority of the day, which allows me to provide consistent supervision and attention. Because of this, your pup won’t be left alone for extended periods. My home is clean, pet-safe, and designed for comfort. I intentionally limit the number of dogs I board at one time to ensure each pet receives attentive, high-quality care. Located in the desirable and safe Pembrooke neighborhood, I also provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.
“Thank you so much to Ms. Anika! She is the best! She has been watching our furbaby for about 4 years now and I don’t know what we would do without her. Her love and care allowed us to have a 9 day worry free family vacation❤️”
About: I’ve grown up taking care of my own dogs both small and large breeds as well as cats. I’ve also taken care of pets for friends and family while they are out of town. I have been working in healthcare since 2019 so I har lots of care giving experience I currently work Monday through Friday and would love do drop in visits before or after work. Also would be available for overnight care on weekends. prioritize maintaining the pet’s home routine, diet, and comfort level, all pets in my care for overnights are offered free roam in a safe environment but am willing to cage pet if owner would prefer to do that as well.
About: I’ve been around dogs most of my life. I currently have a Blue Great Dane named Diesel. He is great with other dogs, and we will have to do a meet and great to make sure you’re pup will get along with him also. I’m usually available unless the wife has me doing something. I spend every min I can with my dog and will show your dog the same treatment. My yard is unfenced for now, but it is 2 acres that’s at the end of a quiet neighborhood. We have plenty of room to play and go on walks.
About: I love animals with all my heart. I’ve never met a pet who hasn’t loved me. I agree with the statement that animals are very energy in tune and I’d like to think so am I! I’ve done lots of dog sitting and cat sitting jobs for people close to me and they’re satisfied with how I did, so you 100% will be too. Your pet is in responsible, attentive hands. I have a free schedule and I’m in desperate need of a side hustle. I have too much free time and I think this would be the perfect thing to book my schedule with, especially because of how much I love being outside and animals. I’m very mindful of the safety even of my own animals so your pet is in the best of hands. Although my yard is not fenced, I take my dog out for walks leashed and for the few times she has escaped, I’m not near any major roads for there to be any accidents or for her to be in harm’s way. I am very vigilant and I would never put your animals or my own at risk because pets are apart of the family and I’d never let anything happen to a family member, even yours.
“Elizabeth is attentive to Maddie. She communicates with me daily about and sends photos. I highly recommend Elizabeth if you are looking for a personable, loving, caring and attentive sitter. Elizabeth is a gem.”

“Jessica did such a great job with our two cats!! This is the second time we have had her care for them and we are booked with her in September. She gives them love and sends us lots of pictures!”
“We've used Kimberly several times now caring for our four cats. Kimberly instantly made a great impression at meet up and continued her professionalism with each visit. I've unfortunately dealt with sitters who took advantage of my flexibility with time, but not Kimberly! If I put a time frame for her, she honors it 💯! My cats have very much trust her and I am so happy I was able to find her on Rover!”
“Jordan was amazing. The best sitter we have ever had. She is thorough, communicative and smart! Best of all, our cats fell in love with her. She always brought a toy, spent quality time with them and gave lots of pets. Her pictures, sent after every visit, are adorable. She has a knack for capturing the cutest, funniest and sweetest moments. We felt completely comfortable being away. She even handled the ever-evolving behaviors of a 6 mo old kitten without missing a beat. If you are lucky enough to book with her, don't hesitate!”

“This is the second time we've had Leah do drop-in visits to medicate our cats and refill food/clean litter. She is reliable and willing to go the extra mile to find hiding cats and make sure they get their meds!”
“Couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter! She took great care of our cat. Sent us detailed messages and lots of photos every day. Highly recommend! We plan to use her again.”

“Hannah was wonderful with our dog. She had great communication and she also was able to come last minute when our other sitter canceled. I will definitely be requesting her again!”

About: Hi! I’m Alicia (I go by my middle name) and I’m an animal lover who has had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve owned dogs for the last 16 years, and I truly can’t imagine a home without them. I currently share my life with Cruz and Azalea, 8-year-old litter mates who originally came to me as foster puppies through a local rescue. I quickly became a proud “foster fail” after falling completely in love with them! My dogs are my family, and the best part of my day is winding down together, all cuddled up on the couch. There are no children in our home, so visiting dogs receive plenty of calm, consistent attention, affection, and companionship. Whether your pup needs a cozy place to stay, a reliable sitter, or someone who understands the little things that make dogs feel safe and happy, I’m here to help. I treat every dog like my own and will make sure your furry family member feels right at home. I maintain personal liability coverage specifically for pet sitting. Since I have a small dog in my home, dogs over 40lbs will be considered on a case by case basis. A meet and greet is required for all dogs over 40lbs. I work full-time in the office, with occasional telework days. Fortunately, my office is only ten minutes from home, so I’m able to come back each day during my lunch break to let the dogs out for a potty break and some playtime. My husband is a self-employed electrical contractor, and there are times when he’s home while I’m at work. When either of us is home, the dogs are taken out at least every two hours. We have a fully fenced yard and two friendly pups of our own. Because they experience a bit of separation anxiety, our dogs relax in their kennels when no one is home. For that reason, I ask that any dogs staying with us are crate trained as well. Crates are only used when the house is empty. Otherwise, all dogs are free to enjoy the home and make themselves comfortable.
About: I have always been around all different animals all growing up, and understand it comes with patience, and love most of all . I have always believed animals have feelings just like we do as humans ! I’m currently working park time and am available any time of the day/night except Tuesdays & Thursdays. I can come in and play , go on a walk , feed, and sit and show love . I can come into clients home, and focus entirely on the animals giving them the care they need while understanding it is not my home .
About: I have had pets of my own, and I have cared for others' since my teens. I treat them like family because they are family. I have daytime employment, so evenings and weekends are available for walks, playtimes,etc. I can house sit overnights if needed. Please give notice as soon as possible. I'm happy to help your pet stay in their own home and be comfortable. Many pets become anxious when their people leave. Having a companion is helpful.
About: Currently I have 2 dogs that are my little fur babies! I grew up working for my parents dog kennel for boarding and grooming which I've helped work at for many years. My parents also bred and showed specific dog breeds; therefore I am comfortable with dogs of all ages. I have experience walking, feeding, playing, grooming, and training all types of dogs. I've experienced many litters of puppies and helped out as they grew to full size adult dogs. I enjoy being around dogs and know how to handle most situations that you could think of. I'm very knowledgable and have also shown dogs in dog shows. If you are looking for a patient and responsible dog sitter I would love to meet your dog and help out with whatever types of things you would like to be done. Thank you again for your consideration. I am a teacher in St.Mary’s county; therefore I am not home during the hours of 7-5 during the school year; however, I am off during most government holidays. I try to keep the routines and schedules that you have set for your pet while I am watching them. I do have a fenced in yard at my home; however, I am comfortable with walking your pet as well.

Highly recommend. We'll definitely be back.”
“Denise was great and treated our dog like family! Her family was very welcoming at the meet and great and every time we dropped our dog off at her home. He always comes home happy, tired, and content. I would highly recommend Denise!”

I am currently a stay at home mom to four children, I am available almost 24/7 to be able to care for your pet, and have a very flexible schedule I have a decent sized yard, it is not fenced in but your pet will never be left unsupervised outside. I am a firm believer that pets are family and will be treated as such. There is no limitations on where your pet will be allowed to go in my home. They want to jump up on the couch for some snuggles? Go right ahead. Feel more comfortable at night in my room? Come right on in. The way your pet is cared for at your home is how they will be treated here.

“Jessica was very organized and extremely reliable. She went over everything (and more) that we needed to touch on at our meet and greet. As walks went on, she was very communicative, and worked with me to come up with creative ideas on how to manage my dog’s significant fears. He was an abused rescue, so he is shy and gets easily scared of noises and people. I will definitely be having her walk again!”

“Kerry and her family took amazing care of my dog Briggs while I was out of town. I got loads of adorable pictures, and he was returned groomed and fluffy with a new bandana. I highly recommend them and will be reaching out again when I travel.”
“Alicia and Randy are wonderful pet hosts!!! The care, attention, professionalism, follow up, and the love they have for their furry clients are just a few examples of superior work. You can instantly tell that they have a genuine love for animals, my Lola was treated with love and great care. I recommend Alicia to anyone that is looking for a safe and loving place for their pets stay. Thank you a million times Alicia, Randy, and their pets Cruz and Azalea for opening your house for Lola.”
“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.”
“Linda is a kind, reliable, and a wonderful pet sitter. Both my experiences have been totally positive, and I will continue to choose Linda as my preferred pet sitter!”
“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.”
“We are so thankful to have found Kimberly - she lovingly took care of our 2 dogs while we were out of town. One of our pups is almost 16 years old with mobility issues and lots of oral medications, but Kimberly took excellent care of her and all her needs. She updated us with photos multiple times each day, which we greatly appreciated. Thank you so much Kimberly - we would give you 10 stars if we could!”
“Tina was fantastic! She sent me text messages, pictures, and videos of my Boston Terrier, Lee Lee. Tina took Lee Lee to the local dog park for exercise and cuddled with her in the evenings. I don't think my dog missed me at all. I will definitely use Tina in the future.”
“When I picked up Jackson, I was not sure he wanted to leave his vacation with Kathryn and her wonderful family! Sure he was excited to see us, but, then he laid down next to Kathryn as if he was feeling pretty comfortable at her home! She sent photos and write ups daily and this made me feel so much better about leaving him in her care. It was like he knew the family forever! This was the first time we went away without him in 8 years so I was a bit anxious about leaving. I would have no problems leaving him again if I have another opportunity to do so. I highly recommend Kathryn and I know he was very happy being there and well cared for. He enjoyed his daily walks and never missed a meal and perhaps, Me!!!! If there were 10 stars I would click everyone of them!”
About: I provide a calm, structured home environment along with attentive home visits. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I’m home the majority of the day, which allows me to provide consistent supervision and attention. Because of this, your pup won’t be left alone for extended periods. My home is clean, pet-safe, and designed for comfort. I intentionally limit the number of dogs I board at one time to ensure each pet receives attentive, high-quality care. Located in the desirable and safe Pembrooke neighborhood, I also provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.
About: I’ve grown up taking care of my own dogs both small and large breeds as well as cats. I’ve also taken care of pets for friends and family while they are out of town. I have been working in healthcare since 2019 so I har lots of care giving experience I currently work Monday through Friday and would love do drop in visits before or after work. Also would be available for overnight care on weekends. prioritize maintaining the pet’s home routine, diet, and comfort level, all pets in my care for overnights are offered free roam in a safe environment but am willing to cage pet if owner would prefer to do that as well.
About: I’ve been around dogs most of my life. I currently have a Blue Great Dane named Diesel. He is great with other dogs, and we will have to do a meet and great to make sure you’re pup will get along with him also. I’m usually available unless the wife has me doing something. I spend every min I can with my dog and will show your dog the same treatment. My yard is unfenced for now, but it is 2 acres that’s at the end of a quiet neighborhood. We have plenty of room to play and go on walks.
About: I love animals with all my heart. I’ve never met a pet who hasn’t loved me. I agree with the statement that animals are very energy in tune and I’d like to think so am I! I’ve done lots of dog sitting and cat sitting jobs for people close to me and they’re satisfied with how I did, so you 100% will be too. Your pet is in responsible, attentive hands. I have a free schedule and I’m in desperate need of a side hustle. I have too much free time and I think this would be the perfect thing to book my schedule with, especially because of how much I love being outside and animals. I’m very mindful of the safety even of my own animals so your pet is in the best of hands. Although my yard is not fenced, I take my dog out for walks leashed and for the few times she has escaped, I’m not near any major roads for there to be any accidents or for her to be in harm’s way. I am very vigilant and I would never put your animals or my own at risk because pets are apart of the family and I’d never let anything happen to a family member, even yours.
“Elizabeth is attentive to Maddie. She communicates with me daily about and sends photos. I highly recommend Elizabeth if you are looking for a personable, loving, caring and attentive sitter. Elizabeth is a gem.”
About: I’ve have taken car of dog since I was 15 and love all kind of dogs. I have a two years old golden retriever that is fully house trained and love everyone.

Also, I can FaceTime anytime you need to see your puppy or send pictures.
“Ruby had a great time! Lots of individual attention and a safely fenced big yard where she could run around and play. Ruby was happy to see me but whined at leaving her new friends when we drove away. I'll definitely be coming back!”
“This was our first visit with Stephanie and Blaze and it was great! Stephanie is quite welcoming and she has a very comfortable home, which Henry seemed to fit right in! I love it that she sent me photos, which reassured me that Henry was settling in well. We are already scheduled for 2 more visits!”
“Laura was awesome! Chacco had a blast during his weekend sleepover and loved hanging out with the other pups. She took great care of him, and I felt totally at ease knowing he was in good hands. He came home happy and tired—always a good sign! Definitely booking with her again.”
