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.”

“Alicia was very proficient and knowledgeable working with my cat to give her fluids for early stage renal decline over a 3 1/2 week time. She was very pleasant, flexible in setting up appointments, on time, and conscientious about modifying her schedule if needed. I hope to work with her again!”
“Marie has been absolutely amazing! We’ve used her to watch our cats and bunny for the last 2.5 years. One of our cats was diagnosed with terminal cancer and has been undergoing chemo. We needed to go away for a few days and I wouldn’t have trusted her care with anyone else but Marie. Highly recommend”

She is very prompt and has a lot of dog behavioral experience that is helpful. I would not hesitate to use her again!”
“I had Grace housesit/petsit for 3 days. She was excellent! I'm a helicopter cat mom and it's not easy leaving your home and baby with someone you don't know, Grace made the experience worry-free, my shy cat loved her and she sent frequent pics/updates. My house looked great when I got back, she even watered my plants. I'm definitely booking her again, and you should too, she's trustworthy, reliable and was just a nice, easy person to work with.”
About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I am available to do daily walks, potty breaks and long walks in the woods - I have done it all! I have grown up with hunting dogs so understand lots of different dog temperaments and training. I ensure that every pet is safe, happy and well-cared for in my care. Nothing makes me happier than seeing a wagging tail when I walk through the door. I have lots of flexibility in my schedule so can accommodate walks or visits at any time including weekends. I have a reliable car and can travel as needed. I ensure that all care is taken when walking a pet, following owners instructions and safety protocols. If needed, I will meet with owners ahead of time if needed to ensure your pet's needs are met.
About: I worked with the Blue Ridge Humane Society, caring for cats, kittens and other pets. I was able to feed them, entertain them, scratch them if they like — and learn a lot of different cat behaviors. I’d love to bring my skills to your own loving furry babies.
About: As a cat owner, I’m comfortable caring for cats of all ages and personalities. I understand that cats do best when their routine stays consistent and their environment feels safe and familiar. My experience ranges from energetic kittens to laid-back seniors, and I tailor my care to each cat’s individual needs, comfort level, and personality.
“Camryn did an excellent job taking care of my cat, Linus, while I was out-of-town for a week on business. She is very professional and trustworthy. Her communication is excellent, and whenever I texted her, she got back with me immediately. I would definitely hire her again.”
“As a spur of the moment idea, that I had heard about through a friend in CA, I contacted Rover and had a good, instant, comforting response. The care giver was great and did send picures and I was very comforted. Thanks to her.”
“Brante cared for our three furbabies (cats) like they were her own! I felt completely at ease leaving my cats for a couple days, knowing they were in good hands! They received lots of extra attention and cuddles 😊”
“Beka has been fantastic with our 4, almost 5 month dog. He had no training prior to 4 month and the work Becka has done with him is incredible. He listens to commands and is potty trained now. Our dog loves her and she seems to adore him. She went out of her way to water my rabbit when he was out of water and also accommodates schedule changes when she can.”
“First time using a pet sitter that wasn’t a friend or family member. Emily was awesome - she texted throughout visit and sent photos so I didn’t worry. I’ve already booked 2 more visits with her.”

About: I’ve had dogs and horses for my whole life, and I have experience with all types of animals like donkeys and goats! I’m a pre-vet student looking for more animal time! I’m an undergrad student looking to help out when I’m on breaks or have free time at school! Also available during the holidays if you’re planning on going out of town and can’t take your pet! I have a fully fenced in yard and one sweet, small dog at home! But I can divide the house and keep them separated if necessary. I love all breeds and even nervous pups!
“Can’t thank Sydney enough for a wonderful day at her home for Aurora! Everything was perfect, with plenty of room to run outside and enjoy the outdoors. Even made a new friend! Can’t wait to be back again soon.”
About: I’ve had pet dogs my whole life! I’ve had a rabbit, a lizard and a snake. Now I have pet turtles and a fish! I am a pet lover! I am currently working from home. I have a small family and the kids love pets! They are great with dogs and various other animals. We would love the have a little friend come visit for a few days. I walk everyday so I can easily include a dog in my daily walking schedule. My home is pet and kid friendly. I welcome the company!
About: I grew up with 2 Labs and a cat, Barney, Stormy, and Felix. You can’t help but fall in love. As a current dogfather I would love to get more but I think my Wife would go crazy haha. I’m happy to help you and your pets in times of need. I take care of my dog Cooper like he’s my son, taking him on walks, runs, and to the park every once an awhile, giving him 2 meals a day and the occasional treat. I make an effort at least 3 times a day to check in on my pet. I have a nice backyard and luckily my dog doesn’t run away as I don’t have a fence yet. Otherwise I take him on a walk with a leash around our neighborhood or at our neighborhood dog park.
About: My dog passed and I miss her company! So I love having visitors to keep me company and play with while working from home :) Work from home, I'm free to walk the dogs first thing the the morning, around noon and anytime in the evening and spend the whole day with them if needed :) Quiet home, no children, no smoking, no other dogs or cats - just fish n two birds, half way fenced Yard, but very safe. We can walk around the neighborhood, there is a park down the street as well and the back yard.
About: Animals have always been the center of my life, and caring for them is so much more than a job to me — it’s truly my passion. I currently have four dogs and five cats of my own, so I understand firsthand the love, attention, patience, and responsibility that go into providing excellent pet care every single day. My experience with animals goes far beyond personal pet ownership. I worked at a dog rescue for three years, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and special needs. During that time, I also fostered 52 dogs, helping them transition into safe, loving homes. That experience taught me how to build trust with nervous pets, handle different personalities, and provide compassionate, individualized care. In addition, I have been working as a veterinary technician for the past two years, which has given me strong knowledge of animal health, behavior, safety, and overall well-being. I’m comfortable recognizing signs of stress or illness, administering attentive care, and making sure pets feel safe and supported. What sets me apart from other sitters is the genuine love and dedication I bring to every animal I meet. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I’m committed to making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs a little extra patience, I have the experience and heart to provide exceptional care. Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly life. Each day, I set aside dedicated time for feeding, walking, playing, and providing companionship to ensure every pet receives consistent attention and care. Every pet receives the love, care, and attention they need to thrive, making their time with me a happy and fulfilling experience. When caring for pets, safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities. In my home, I ensure a secure and pet-friendly space by removing hazards, providing comfortable bedding, and maintaining a clean environment. I follow the owner's instructions meticulously, maintaining their feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any specific care requirements. I build trust by being patient, gentle, and attentive, allowing pets to adjust at their own pace. Regular playtime, cuddles, and positive reinforcement help create a bond and alleviate any anxiety they may feel. In a client's home, I respect their space and maintain their pet's routine as closely as possible. I follow their instructions regarding feeding, walking, medication, and playtime. I ensure the home is secure, checking that doors and windows are properly closed and that there are no potential hazards. I communicate regularly with the owner, providing updates and photos to reassure them that their pet is in good hands. My goal is to provide a safe, trustworthy, and comfortable environment, whether in my home or theirs, so pets feel secure and loved in their owner's absence.
About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life and have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for pets. Growing up, my mom had five dogs—some of which had puppies—and I helped raise and care for them. I’ve also cared for cats in multi-pet households, including feeding, litter box maintenance, and creating calm, safe environments for shy or senior cats. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I now have a black Yorkie of my own, and I treat every animal I care for like part of the family—whether they bark or purr! I currently work part time- and have lots of free time! I will send out a daily schedule of what I’ll be doing with the pets! I will take your dog out on walks on our neighborhood trail outside! I also have a few ring cameras, and will send a lot of pictures/videos throughout the day.
“Mary was great, she just incorporated Allie into her family and daily life. She sent photos of Allie totally chilling out and interacting with people. It made me feel better knowing she was safe and content. I could see that in her face and body language.”
About: Hi there! My name is Stacia and I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. I am a dog owner too! Remi is a 2 years old, playful, dark yellow lab. He is fixed. I’m familiar with ensuring the environment is right for your dog. I previously owned a dog with high anxiety and wasn’t friendly with strangers. I understand the importance of making sure your guidelines for your pet are followed. I can give oral medications, follow your training rules, walk large dogs, handle dogs that aren’t friendly with strangers, high anxiety, and have disabilities (ex. Deaf, blind). These dogs are our best friends so I promise to take great care of yours :) If you have any additional questions for me, please don’t hesitate to ask. I am happy to chat or meet prior to booking to ensure I am a good fit for your pup! I believe in open communication to ensure the safety of you, your pet, me and mine. I work fully remote and am able to support daycare and boarding. I usually walk my dog morning, mid day and evening for 30 min to an hour at a time. I’d like to be able to support other people who need assistance. During the week your dog won’t be left alone for more than an hour depending on drop off and pick up time. During the weekend your dog won’t be left longer than 3-4 hours depending. We can always communicate your dogs specific needs to accommodate! I have a fenced yard in our home and a friendly, playful 2 year old male lab (fixed). If your dog is in my home, they do need to be friendly with other dogs. During the week I do work full time so there are times where I am in meetings so it is preferred your dog is not destructive or is okay in a crate or enclosed room during meetings. I do make sure the dogs are exercised before and after. I communicate my anticipated work schedule and plan for the day with the pet owner.
“Laura did a great job with Beau- we did our first doggy day care with her. She has 3 other dogs of her own- I think Beau enjoyed playing with some (all?) of them. She sent pictures and was very responsive and flexible with timing. I appreciated it!”
About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for about 10 years now, through my friends, family, neighbors and my own 2 puppies! I’m a college athlete who’s very active, so I’m happy to run/play and keep energetic dogs exercised while also making sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for! Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine, caring for my own two dogs! However, I’m a college student now, who lives an hour away from home, but I’m back for weekends and have plenty of free time to care for pets! I provide a safe, fun environment for pets. I have a fenced yard for running around outside, and two friendly dogs who would love to make friends! I closely supervise pets and will follow all instructions/special requests strictly from owners!
“Daphne absolutely LOVED hanging out with Brittany and her family. I was a little nervous leaving her with a new care provider because of her anxiety, but Brittany’s family made sure she got the love and attention she needed and I’m so grateful for them! Thank you Brittany!”

About: I am a college student looking for a part time job. I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a little girl. I took care of the family and the neighbor's dog.

About: My husband, William, and I have 7 years experience with raising high drive working dogs starting as young as 8 weeks. We feel well equipped to provide the highest level care for your furry loved one while maintaining any training goals. Your dogs comfort and safety is our highest priority so we will try to match your dogs schedule to the best of our ability. I am currently offering care on my days off allowing me the opportunity to have a flexible schedule to fit your dog’s needs during both week days and weekends. I have a 6 foot fenced in yard for your dog to have some safe off leash playtime. Your dog will be home with our residential dog, Duke, during their visit. Duke is an intact male Labrador, so if your dog is in heat, we will keep them separate. All dog gear (toys, water bowls, etc) will be thoroughly cleaned between dog visits to prioritize the health and safety of your dog.
About: Loving family for your furry friend. Walks and tummy rubs. We are located in the perfect walkabout town with beaches, dog park, and open spaces. Know that your furry family member will be well cared for in our home. Last minute or scheduled in advance. We accept them big and small. We just lost our beloved Zoey, our little shichon. If your pet prefers to chill alone there is plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. Stop by today for a meet and greet. We are a small family. We at the periwinkle bungalow in Oxford are at your service to make your life on the shore swell! I work from home. We like quiet mornings doing the crossword puzzle, usually cooking something yummy. We spend most of our time in the open kitchen living room space. Small home and pets are allowed everywhere except on my bed. Big yard and proximity to everything in a very quaint little town by the water. Our cats live upstairs on their own floor when we have guests, so no worries.
About: I have been an animal lover since I can remember. I have grown up with cats, dogs, and horses my whole life and have loved every moment of it. I started pet sitting for clients in my late twenties and really enjoy doing it. I have helped take care of cats, dogs, horses, and chickens (I know crazy!). They have ranged through all of the age groups. Clients seem to like me and have repeatedly asked me pet sit/house sit for them. Your pets are in great hands with me :) I am currently working full time, Monday through Friday from 8:00-5:00 but am available on the weekends. I am more than happy to stay at your house during the week but just know that I will be away from your animal during my work day but I can, if needed, go back to your house on my lunch break to take your dog for a walk or take care of any medication administration. I will usually ask you your pet's routine. When does he/she get fed in the morning? When do they go for their walk? Do they like playing outside? Favorite toy? When is dinner? I will stick to that routine so that your pet feels comfortable and happy when you are away. I will always ask if you need me to do anything around your house as well. I will water your plants for you, take out the trash/recycling, or get your mail. I am very tidy and will never leave a mess after I leave.
About: I have been a guide dog puppy raiser for the Seeing Eye since 2016 and was responsible for their general care, obedience, and socialization. I also have experience with our own rescue dogs and cats. A few summers ago, I worked at a dog boarding facility and provided general care for all different breeds of dogs. I would love to take care of your pet in your home so they are less stressed. I am also happy to provide dog walking and daily check-ins when you aren't able to be home. I currently have a very flexible schedule and I am available on week days and weekends. The more lead time I have, the more flexible I can be. I will happily keep your pets on their daily schedule as you see fit. I am comfortable playing with the dogs in a fenced area or walking them on a leash.
About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, I bring more than just basic pet care—I offer genuine companionship and a deep understanding of canine behavior. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy who needs structured walks or a senior dog who craves gentle attention and routine, I tailor each visit to your pet’s unique needs. My background includes working with rescue dogs, administering oral medications, and handling multi-dog households with calm confidence. While growing up, I lived in a home with multiple dogs and have cared for many dogs around my community. I currently own four dogs, two miniature dachshunds, one cane corso and my senior german shepherd. I have spent many of hours training my dogs, especially the cane corso who was a tad reactive, and they are all doing great! I would love to continue helping out around the community to care for your companions. I am currently working a full-time job in Easton, MD from 9-4:30 Monday through Friday. I would be open for mornings, evenings, and weekends. Sometimes, I am totally able to pop out for lunch time walks if it’s in Easton and know ahead of time. I am pretty flexible! In my home, I have three dogs that are crate trained and one that roams the home. I currently have a fenced in yard for my dogs as of recently, but have many years of experience with leashed walks and leash training with my own dogs and client’s dogs.
“This was our first time using Rebeka and she was phenomenal. Not only did she make arrangements at work to walk my dog super last minute but she was very sweet and conscious of my dog’s anxiety around other dogs. We will definitely be using her again! I have already referred her to family and friends.”

“Ruby came back so sleepy! Exactly what I want from an hour walk. Bridget asks good questions and gives you updates about how your dog is doing. She is very aware of her surroundings and making sure Ruby is able to have her best walk. Ruby is afraid of cars and kids- I heard Bridget praise and redirect Ruby when encountering a scary thing. She really cares about my dog and it is noticeable. 10/10- highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12 and can’t imagine life without them! While serving in the Navy, I volunteered at military kennels, and later worked at a doggy daycare/boarding/training facility in Texas. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior pets, and I share my home with a sweet 10-year-old lab and a 2-year-old Norwegian Forest Cat. Reliable, patient, and attentive — I promise to treat your pets like my own. I have a flexible schedule and lots of love to give! Whether it’s a quick walk or a cozy check-in, I’ll make sure your furry family members get plenty of playtime, cuddles, and attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own, keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable. During walks, I pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings to ensure a fun and secure outing. For in-home check-ins, I follow all your instructions carefully, provide love and attention, and make sure your pets feel relaxed and cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals since I started high school. I grew up with dogs, cats and poultry and those are the animals I’ve taken care of most. I’m comfortable with senior care for sure but young puppies and extremely young kittens are outside of my comfort zone. I’m currently commuting to SU for this last semester and finishing off a major doesn’t allow for a lot of job opportunities that were available previously due to the amount of at-home work required. Pet sitting allows a lot more flexibility and brings the brain break of hanging out with fur babies to fit into the class work chaos. I currently have a cat of my own who stays with me as well as my childhood cat and dog who live with my parents. I’ve often pet sat for family and am comfortable with all ages except young puppies and very young kittens.

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.”
“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.”
“Celena was great with our 7 month old pup, Ace! He had so much fun at her house. She sent us many pictures and videos several times a day and for all of them he was playing and have the best time with her dog and her family. We would definitely book Celena again!”
“Shelby and her husband Kyle took incredible care of Bentley. I honestly wish our dogs could spend more time together. They had so much fun. I highly recommend Shelby and Kyle to anyone looking for a warm professional loving environment for their dog!”
“Jen and Mike treated my dog like a princess. They went above and beyond any other pet sitter we've had. We never had to ask for an updat as to how are dog was doing. She kept us updated several times during the day and sent pictures and video. I highly recommend Jen!”
“Bianca was awesome with Harley. He stayed with her for a last minute trip. This was his first time boarding so she was gret with all of my ckncerbs and kept me post in how he was doing.”
“Brittany did an excellent job taking care of our dog and providing daily photos and updates. I highly recommend her and I would not hesitate to use her again.”
“Kimberly and her family were fantastic. My dog seemed super happy during her stay. I received a photo and note every night. I will definitely be booking with them in the future.”
About: Hi there! My name is Stacia and I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. I am a dog owner too! Remi is a 2 years old, playful, dark yellow lab. He is fixed. I’m familiar with ensuring the environment is right for your dog. I previously owned a dog with high anxiety and wasn’t friendly with strangers. I understand the importance of making sure your guidelines for your pet are followed. I can give oral medications, follow your training rules, walk large dogs, handle dogs that aren’t friendly with strangers, high anxiety, and have disabilities (ex. Deaf, blind). These dogs are our best friends so I promise to take great care of yours :) If you have any additional questions for me, please don’t hesitate to ask. I am happy to chat or meet prior to booking to ensure I am a good fit for your pup! I believe in open communication to ensure the safety of you, your pet, me and mine. I work fully remote and am able to support daycare and boarding. I usually walk my dog morning, mid day and evening for 30 min to an hour at a time. I’d like to be able to support other people who need assistance. During the week your dog won’t be left alone for more than an hour depending on drop off and pick up time. During the weekend your dog won’t be left longer than 3-4 hours depending. We can always communicate your dogs specific needs to accommodate! I have a fenced yard in our home and a friendly, playful 2 year old male lab (fixed). If your dog is in my home, they do need to be friendly with other dogs. During the week I do work full time so there are times where I am in meetings so it is preferred your dog is not destructive or is okay in a crate or enclosed room during meetings. I do make sure the dogs are exercised before and after. I communicate my anticipated work schedule and plan for the day with the pet owner.
About: I've always been the go-to gal for my friends and family who need care for their pets. I've made many furry friends over the years. I'm a freelance writer with lots of freedom to come and go, so my schedule is pretty flexible. If you need pet care on short notice, I'll do my best to accommodate. Your pet can enjoy the comfort of its own home while I come over and cater to their needs. We'll become the best of friends!
“Candice took great care of my two dogs. She sent regular updates and photos 3 times a day. She invited them everywhere in her home so I knew they were part of the family. She had her own dog plus a couple of other regulars who all got along great and played well with each other. One of my dogs did not cooperate and had a few accidents. Candice could not have been nicer about it. I would definitely use Candice again.”
“Elena is confident, professional, and I felt secure while my dog was under her care. She asked the necessary prescreening questions to ensure it was a good fit- which I appreciated. There were plenty of long walks, beach trips, photo updates, and play time with Elena & family. Would highly recommend and will be looking to rebook in the future. Thank you Elena!”
