“Margit and Bill were great with Daisy. Daisy had so much fun with them and their dogs and enjoyed their backyard space. Daily pictures and feedback were much appreciated. We will definitely trust them with our Daisy again. Margit and Bill are wonderful people.”
About: Hi, my name is Katie! 😊 I worked in a high stress telecommunications job for many years but my true passion is to walk, train, play with, and take excellent care of dogs. I absolutely love dogs and animals! If my husband and I are driving down the road and I see a dog without an owner, he automatically pulls the car over so I can attempt to rescue and find their owner! I am the extreme dog lover who carries an extra set of leashes, water bowl, and treats in our car just in case. I grew up taking care of and training a German Shepherd and Sheltie. I have owned/and or fostered a few Golden Retrievers, Border Collie, Black Lab, and a Rat Terrier/Red Heeler mix. I love high energy dogs, have strong arms to handle pulling dogs, and enjoy leash training and teaching basic commands. I have also taken care of farms and multiple kinds of farm animals. Our current fur baby is a 1 year old Golden Retriever. She truly has a heart of gold! 💛 I also love and am patient with senior dogs. I look forward to meeting you and your precious fur babies. I also have a heart for people in pain who can’t get outside with their dogs. I would love to help! I am available to take care of dogs. I can walk and take care of your fur babies. They can stay with me if they get along with other dogs and children. I always make sure to check water supply especially during the hot months! Sometimes pavement can be too hot for a dog’s paws, so would love to take your fur baby on adventures to local trails, beaches, and/or to dog parks. I understand each dog has different needs and want to treat your dog to the best of my ability, as well as, model how you take care of your own fur baby.
“Kelly is awesome! We went to Ocean City to spend some time at the beach and Kelly is just off the main route coming from Northern Virginia. She took great care of our dog for three nights and sent us pictures at the end of each day, totally unexpected. Besides being great with animals she is just a great person. If you are in here area I would recommend giving her your business!!”
“This is the second time that we have used Irena for our dachshund, Koop, and both experiences have been great! Koop seems to enjoy being there, from what I hear, he gets along well with her dog, Louie. She sent us pictures throughout our trip as well. We will definitely be using Irena again the next time we need someone to watch Koop!”
“Alexa was the BEST! She went above and beyond my expectations. She constantly kept me updated, sending pictures and updates about my dog, Benny, throughout the day. She was born for this job and excels at it. She has a true love for your pet and treats them as her own. I would trust her with any of my pets and will definitely be using her in the future. She is wonderful and I couldn't recommend her more!!”
“Jill was a great host for our pup! She sent lots of pictures and made sure Luna got all the love and attention she needed. As a good bonus there were a few other dogs, so Luna always had buddy, and Jill was great with managing the dog introductions and making sure everyone played well together.”
“Our dogs can be challenging and this was the first time they've ever been boarded. McCray did a great job taking care of them and giving them tons of attention...all during the holidays, which is not easy.”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals my entire life. I used to live on a farm with goats, horses, chickens, cats, and dogs. My favorite breed is a cocker spaniel. I currently work from home all day long so I am available for around the clock attention. Pets are like family members. We all engage with each other all the time. I take breaks often and play in the backyard with the pets. My kids also loves to experience new animals in the house. We also have a great neighborhood to walk the animals.
“Sylvia was an incredible sitter! The moment my husband and I met her we knew she’d be great. She has such a lovely personality and you can tell how much she cares about animals. She made sure to keep us updated on how Trigger was doing and sending pictures, he looked so happy in all of them. When we picked him up, he was just happiest old pup. I most definitely recommend Sylvia to anyone that needs a sitter!”
“Kathy took great care on Kimi who got very ill with liver failure just a couple of days before our trip. Kathy made sure Kimi ate and drank and gave her numerous medications. Kimi looked better and more lively when we picked her up than when we dropped her off. We will surely call upon Kathy the next time we need dog sitting.”
“Jacqueline and her son took great care of our dog Ace. He had so much fun and was wore out last night after we picked him up. Jacqueline was quick to respond and kept us updated all weekend with pics of Ace having fun with his buddy Nutella. Would highly recommend Jacqueline!”
“Mickey was a very gracious and thoughtful host for our year and a half old wire hair fox terrier. Mickey dealt with a small injury to Gracie‘s paw that occurred just before we dropped her off, keeping her front paw bandaged many times as Gracie decided she did not want to wear it. She also took Gracie for 2 1/2 mile walks, which is exactly what that breed needs. We absolutely recommend Mickey.”
About: I love dogs and up until 3 months ago I had a rescue dog for 8 years until she developed serious medical issuse and I had her euthanized. I miss here and she was spoiled and I will do the same for your dog. I will provide plenty of walks and a nice fenced in backyard where your pet can roam free to do whatever. I allowed my dog to have free roam of my house, and your pet will have the same freedom, and I have a nice porch where your pet can lay outside and enjoy the sights. I am 75 and a retired RN. I live alone so my schedule is very flexible, with the appropriate notification. I am an early riser so your pet will be let out back first thing in the morning, then - 2or 3 walks during the day. I have a fenced in backyard and a fenced in deck above the garage so your pet can be safe in either one of the locations.
“We were very pleased with Cory, he kept me informed of how teddy was doing. Even though Cory has cats and teddy was not a fan of them he handle the situation great. !!!!!”
“Neena was responsive, flexible, and helpful at all times. We booked Neena as we were taking a trip away from home and were boarding our two dogs for the first time. We found the whole experience straightforward and she went the extra mile to make sure they were both comfortable and happy during their stay. We would absolutely recommend Neena to anyone looking for quality pet care!”
“Thank you Kendra for taking such great care of Lucy for us. Kendra was amazing. She came through last minute for us and we can’t thank her enough. We could immediately tell when we meet her that Lucy was already so comfortable with her. She kept us informed each day of how things were going and was absolutely wonderful and so easy to talk and work with. We definitely plan on using her in the future.”
“Jessica was great. She responded very quickly on very short notice. Felt very good dropping Leif off and Leif looked great picking him up. I would use this boarder again in the future.”
“Best sitter! Molly had a great time running and resting at Kate’s house for the weekend. She had an extra crate for her when I forgot mine and also kept me updated with Molly’s day. I really appreciated the short turn around as my planned sitter canceled last minute and I was scrambling to find a reliable fix! Thank you Kate!”

“Carlie took great care of my dogs while I was out of town for a wedding. She arrived on time, even stayed a little longer than the 30 minutes, and had great communication throughout. Very happy and would definitely use her again!”
“Kasey took great care of our cat, Mila and sent lots of pictures. She was very communicative as well. We will definitely think of her again if we need a pet sitter.”
“We had a great experience with Melanie as our pet sitter! Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and she made sure we always felt informed and reassured. She really tried her best with our cats even though they’re very shy and mostly kept hidden. Melanie was patient and understanding. She was always on time, kept the litter boxes neat, and made sure everything was in perfect order. We truly appreciated her care and attention, and we’d absolutely trust her again with our cats in the future!”
“I was so lucky to find Alyssa! She’s extremely reliable and very thorough in her care of my cat. He warmed up to her immediately and usually he’s very shy. She’s very intuitive and gentle with him and ensures his food and water are replenished and his litter is clean. I highly recommend her services and look forward to working with her again!”
“Pam did a great job taking care of our cats. We received reports and photos after each visit. The cats loved her. How do we know that? We received pictures of one of our cats rolling over for belly rubs. That cat has to be very comfortable with someone to do that! We would gladly have Pam take care of the boys the next time we go away.”
“Everything was great with my pets as it has been whenever Carly has taken care of them for me! She provided wonderful care of all of them and we were able to relax and enjoy our vacation. Thank you Carly M.!”
“Awesome job overall. No complaints. Sent pictures every check in. Great communication and rates. Went above and beyond by taking care of my mail and trash. Thanks Jacqueline.”
“Chris was very prompt and interested in our kitties on the meet and greet. She kept us informed while we were away and the cats seemed well cared for when we returned. Recommend!”
About: Having lived on a farm for over 20 years, I’m worked with a lot of species. I’ve rescued, nurtured and cared for animals my whole life. 😍 Hello. I’m extremely flexible as this is a new venture for me. I want to be a reliable, knowledgeable and nurturing source for you. 😍 Pets are family to me. I believe I'm one of the best caregivers because I treat animals as I would like to treated: kindness, patience and respect.
“Second time benefiting from Jen’s service - this time with two cats instead of just one. It gives me comfort to know when she’s popping in to visit them and once I get the update and pictures, I feel great knowing that they’re ok!”
“Diana was wonderful! She was extremely helpful in taking care of our pets on our two week vacation! Diana is kind, clean, communicative and followed all of the instructions I left to a tee. We were very thankful and happy with her services!”
About: I currently have three very different cats—one older and feisty, one who prefers people over pets, and one who’s a total snuggler—so I’m comfortable handling all types of feline personalities. I’ve also given medication, cleaned ears, and trimmed claws, so I’m confident with basic care needs. Whether your cat wants attention, space, or structure, I always meet them where they are and keep their routine calm and consistent.
About: I was raised with cats, I had either one or two cats my whole life up until I was about 35. When it came time to get pets again, I chose guinea pigs due to the allergies of someone else in the home. I have had up to 5 guinea pigs at a time and currently have two when my daughter comes to visit I help take care of her two cats that travel with her. Additionally, I’ve just joined a pet/house sitting site and will be doing travel cat sits beginning in June. I’ve also helped to take care of my daughter’s rabbit when she used to live with me.
About: Over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats and small animals in clients' homes. I am a Wicomico county public school teacher this proving a clean background as well as a patient and caring demeanor. I cared for my own diabetic cat for 2 years so insulin administration would be no problem. Due to some unforseen life changes I have a new situation and temporary schedule. For December I have full availability for walks and drop-ins M-F. I have most weekends free but need bring my 2 children with me. They are 8 and 10 years old and adore dogs. ♥️ I am happy to do a meet and greet prior to a booking if you have a child friendly fur baby and interest in working with me. We also have a fenced in back yard you could drop off to. 🐾🐶🐕🐕🦺😁 I will care for the animals as you direct me to. I am happy to take dogs in my vehicle for outings to dog parks or other events. I have a fenced in yard at my own home but have 2 guinea pigs and a cat so visits to my home would be dependent on tolerance to other pets and my 2 children who reside with me full time.
About: I rescued my first cat when I was 3 years old. My neighbors actually found her in the woods and knew from frequent conversations that I'd been praying to God that he'd give me a kitty. Sure enough, he provided. I got to love that cat for 17 years before she passed. In that timeframe i rescued several other cats too! Having owned five cats myself, I am very familiar with different temperaments and can provide a unique experience for any feline friend as needed.
About: This is my friends cat in the profile picture I have had cats on and off since I was a child and have saved many strays turned pets. I’ve administered medicine in a cats eyes and medicine with a medicine dropper. I’ve had cats that were and were not cuddly but they all felt loved.
About: Hi and thanks for stopping to read more. I’m an animal lover. I’m patient and attentive to each fur kids needs and personalities. If they are on a routine, diet or have special needs, feel less stressed knowing it will be done. I have a diabetic dog so I am comfortable with administering shots and understand the importance of schedules, dietary needs and alertness for behavior. All the fur cats and dogs are welcomed anywhere in the home and on furniture, including cuddles for naps. I love playing, loving and training. I’ve trained one of my fur kids (Bella) to be my service animal. And because every breed has their own DNA hardwire, I make sure I’m aware of their general habits. I am a full time FurMom and am the go to person when someone needs a sitter because I don’t have other commitments and I can stay home, walk, train and/or care. I have an enclosed backyard patio with some dirt area for the bathroom and concrete to sun bathe. I also have a roof top deck fenced in if it’s a nice day for sun and breeze. I live in a really dog friendly neighborhood and have 3 floors for stretching their legs. I have a spare bedroom for anyone to relax in and an indoor camera to see monitor I am at home full time to pet sit and am able to maintain timely health care, recreation, feedings for your loved furry loved ones. Everyone is welcomed wherever they feel comfortable and safe. I have a quiet room separately if needed and I let my dogs out every 2-3 hours for bathroom breaks and continuous refreshing water. For my cats, I make sure all their preferences are in order and litter is cleaned out daily. I’ll spend laser chase and smart games throughout the day.

“You can tell Margit and Bill truly love dogs! My Daisy fit right in with their fur babies and made her self at home. When I picked her up she was super happy. I will definitely be using Margit on a regular basis :-)”
“Zula had a great day with Irena. Zula can be shy and Irena made sure she was comfortable. She went for walks and got treats and we were able to go to the amusement park as a family on vacation without worrying about our girl. Irena sent pics and updates. We will def contact her again if we need help with Zula on a beach trip!”
“Words can not even describe how amazing Jill has been when watching our Nella. We came to Ocean City on vacation and quickly realized that Nella was a little stressed with all the people around and we didn’t feel right leaving her alone when we went out. We soon found Jill who put our minds at ease and responded to our request almost instantly. She has been extremely accommodating with our schedule and had truly saved our vacation. We were able to enjoy ourselves knowing Nella was not only having a blast but was in great hands. We were sent photos and videos of Nella through out the day which really makes a difference. At the end of the day, she would send Nella home with little treats and even toys that she knew Nella enjoyed. It is clearly evident that Jill is not only great at what she does but truly has a love for animals. Again, words can not describe how great it has been to work with Jill. The only bad thing I can think of is that Jill won’t be around when we get back home! Thank you Jill for truly being great and taking such good care of Nella.”
“Jacqueline and William were great! We made a last minute reservation and they accommodated our drop off and pickup times which needed to be flexible since we were going kayaking and uncertain how long it would take. Will definitely use them again the next time we are Trap Pond.”
“Bella loved her stay and playing with John' pup Maddie. John was awesome! Bella took right to him and he was very attentive to Bella's needs. Bella is older and suffers from kidney disease but that did not deter John. I definitely recommend John and will be using his services in the future.”
“Samantha is absolutely wonderful!!! She watched our dog at her home for an entire day and he was able to play in her nicely fenced yard. He was able to play with her dogs, which he does not get to do as we live in an HOA. I plan on using Samantha in the future when we need someone to care for our dog. I highly recommend her!!!”
“From the moment I met Colleen, I knew she would be a great pet sitter because my dogs immediately loved her!! I have a 2 year old Bernedoodle and 5 year old Bernise Mountain dog and Colleen welcomed them into her home like they were old friends! We happened to run into her while on a walk after we met and my dogs were so excited to see her. That told me everything I needed to know! I am one of those pet parents that is hesitant to leave my dogs with other people, but I feel so blessed to have found Colleen. I know I have found a true pet lover to watch my dogs if I must be away, and that gives me true peace of mind!!”
“Have you ever had one of those days where you were just off, and everything went wrong? Well our family was having one of those *weeks*! Alexa was so understanding and just rolled with us and our chaos; from the last minute stay, to us being new to rover, forgetting to leave our leash- on and on. She was SO good with our emotionally complex German Shepherd (heehee) and gave her a home away from home to relax at. Overall, what an awesome experience.”

“Great communication! Clean and appropriate environment. Despite Axe's terrible anxiety, he loved Cory and never fussed one bit. We will definitely be using Cory's daycare again!”
“Neena responded right away and was available and gracious in regard to my last minute request! Neena was great at communicating and Daisy was happy and well cared for upon pick up! Would definitely book here again!”
“So glad to have found Christina to take care of our dog Lucky during our recent trip to the beach. She's warm and friendly and took care of Lucky as if he were her own. She communicated promptly and clearly. She was so flexible with our vacation schedule and sent us adorable pictures of Lucky throughout the day. I'd definitely rebook with Christina, no question.”
“Amanda was an excellent fit for watching our girl for the day! Our pup is energetic and needs attention and Amanda did a great job keeping her busy and keeping us updated with pictures and messages. I highly recommend her if your in the OC area.”
About: I have always had pets in life (dogs, cats, rabbit, hamsters, fish) and even adopted a dog to live with me when I was in college. The majority of my experience is with dogs and it spans all sizes and breads (from an 8-pound Maltese to a 70+ pound American Staffordshire Terrier). Over the last few years, I have worked with several animal shelters and opened my house to foster pets in need. During this time I have worked to train puppies and taken care of pets that required special attention due to illnesses. I have recently retired and now have plenty of time to live the dream of caring for and playing all day with your fur children. I live on a pet friendly street (cul-de-sac) and my house is properly secure to keep pets safe (gates, crates if needed) and happily engaged in activities.

“Highly recommend! We used Susan for 2 straight weeks to provide an extra walk for our golden retriever while my parents were watching her (we were away on vacation). Her communication was wonderful and put us at ease. Will definitely book her again.”
About: I’m reliable and loving. I’d love to be connected with your fur babies. Any age is fine with me. I have a puppy and a senior. Think about this summer when you are out having fun and have to rush home to feed or walk your pet. I don't overnight in my home or yours because I have four animals of my own. Sorry. I’m retired and have a very flexible schedule. Most any time of day . Night time in a well lit area is preferred for me I don't overnight here or at you home as I have to be here for my own pets. But I can spend the day .
“Christine was AMAZING! She was ALWAYS on time for the walks with my 2 dogs and walked them for the full 30 minutes I requested. She was also very attentive to keeping me updated and sharing photos!”
About: I have taken care of animals of all kinds for my whole life living on our 50 acre family farm. We have horses, pigs, cows, dogs, cats, reptiles and fish! I take care of all of them and provide them with a loving and enriched environment. I can’t wait to meet your best friends, or have them for a visit! Pet care is my greatest passion and second job at home. I spend my mornings out in the fields with my horses and cows pitching hay, mucking stalls, and cuddling in the grass. I spend my evenings snuggled up with my 3 hound dogs on couch or landscaping my reptile and fish tanks for fun. I am open to the needs of all pets as I know people do things in their own way. I will carefully follow the instructions left by the client.
About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats my entire life, and I currently have three cats and a puppy of my own. I’ve also had senior pets and pets with medical needs, so I’m completely comfortable giving medication and paying attention to signs of stress or discomfort. As a former elementary school teacher, I bring a calm, patient, and dependable approach to every visit. I always make sure pets feel safe, understood, and cared for—whether that means playtime, gentle company, or simply sticking to their normal routine. My goal is to make each visit stress-free for both you and your pet. I work from home part-time, so my schedule is very flexible throughout the week. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and cat care, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. While I don’t currently offer overnights or boarding, I’m able to stop by multiple times a day as needed. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping things familiar and stress-free. I stick to your normal feeding, walking, and play routines, give plenty of attention, and make sure water and litter boxes are fresh. I’m patient with shy pets and happy to give extra cuddles to the social ones. I treat your home and your pets with the same care I give my own.
“Thank you Irena for working our pup into your schedule. Irena made us immediately comfortable that she would keep the pup happy while the humans were enjoyed festing over three days.”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals my entire life. I used to live on a farm with goats, horses, chickens, cats, and dogs. My favorite breed is a cocker spaniel. I currently work from home all day long so I am available for around the clock attention. Pets are like family members. We all engage with each other all the time. I take breaks often and play in the backyard with the pets. My kids also loves to experience new animals in the house. We also have a great neighborhood to walk the animals.
About: I currently have a cat and a golden retriever and would love to help you take care of your dog while you are in need. I work from home Monday through Friday so my schedule allows me to be very flexible for potty breaks and general playtime while I'm taking care of your best friend. We have over 3/4 of an acre of property and are also located in the heart of Berlin...So a walk or outside playtime is no problem.
“Daniel did an amazing job taking care of Nova. He was super communicative and always kept us updated, which we really appreciated. You can tell he genuinely cares,Nova loved him. I’d highly recommend using him!”
“Our experience with Colleen was truly outstanding! From the very beginning, she demonstrated a level of professionalism and care that immediately put us at ease. It was clear that her top priority was Storm's well-being and comfort. Colleen took the time to ask thoughtful, detailed questions to fully understand Storm’s needs and personality, which spoke volumes about her dedication. Her home is not only beautiful but also a calm and welcoming environment—Storm settled in with ease. We felt confident and reassured knowing our dog was in such attentive and loving hands. Colleen went above and beyond, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend her to anyone seeking top-notch, compassionate care for their furry family member! Thank you so much!”
“Jacqueline and her son took great care of our dog Ace. He had so much fun and was wore out last night after we picked him up. Jacqueline was quick to respond and kept us updated all weekend with pics of Ace having fun with his buddy Nutella. Would highly recommend Jacqueline!”
About: I love dogs and up until 3 months ago I had a rescue dog for 8 years until she developed serious medical issuse and I had her euthanized. I miss here and she was spoiled and I will do the same for your dog. I will provide plenty of walks and a nice fenced in backyard where your pet can roam free to do whatever. I allowed my dog to have free roam of my house, and your pet will have the same freedom, and I have a nice porch where your pet can lay outside and enjoy the sights. I am 75 and a retired RN. I live alone so my schedule is very flexible, with the appropriate notification. I am an early riser so your pet will be let out back first thing in the morning, then - 2or 3 walks during the day. I have a fenced in backyard and a fenced in deck above the garage so your pet can be safe in either one of the locations.
“We were very pleased with Cory, he kept me informed of how teddy was doing. Even though Cory has cats and teddy was not a fan of them he handle the situation great. !!!!!”
“Neena was responsive, flexible, and helpful at all times. We booked Neena as we were taking a trip away from home and were boarding our two dogs for the first time. We found the whole experience straightforward and she went the extra mile to make sure they were both comfortable and happy during their stay. We would absolutely recommend Neena to anyone looking for quality pet care!”
“Lori was so wonderful and caring with my dog Precious. I knew that she was in great hands while I was away. Lori treated Precious like family and made her feel right at home. I would highly recommend Lori to care for your dog!”
“Jessica was great. She responded very quickly on very short notice. Felt very good dropping Leif off and Leif looked great picking him up. I would use this boarder again in the future.”
