“Terri was the epitome of perfect. She was just what my pet Blossom needed. Attention, affection, love, she filled all of those things, and then some. She took many pictures kept us up-to-date, and eased my anxiety!!! I would use her again and again and again, top-notch for sure!!!”
“Chris and Gerry are so nice, loving, and kind. My girls felt at ease while staying with them. It helps that they only take one client at a time. If you are looking for someone to love your babies like their own, look no further. Definitely book with Chris and Gerry!”
“Michelle was a great sitter for Milo. She sent pictures daily and communicated how he was doing. Milo got along great with her dog which is always a plus to have a playmate. Highly recommend Michelle for boarding.”
“Renee and her husband were great sitters for our 18-month old, very anxious rescue dog. They were very accommodating - we needed to adjust dates and they were fine with that. Maggie had a great time with them - they gave her time to feel confident and comfortable before introducing her to the other dogs in their household. I received a picture and a happy update each day of Maggie's stay. They were comfortable administering Maggie's daily medicine.”
“Annette is truly an amazing dog host. She knows animal behavior so well. Her own pets are wonderful and our dog loved visiting as a guest. She is an expert with regard to introducing pets to one another. I wish he could go on a mini-vacation once a week!”
“Zeke had a great time at Samantha’s. She gave us constant updates. She took special care of Zeke as he has some hip issues. I glad I found her and would definitely use her services in the future.”
“Ellen was just wonderful and I know my dog was in good hands while we were gone. She got to run and play and hike on the farm and Ellen sent pictures and videos. Will absolutely use Ellen again to watch our Bella girl!”
“Nat and Ally took great care of my dog and I can tell he had a great time and was a part of the family for the few days he was there. I got plenty of photos of my dog hanging with their dog and children and he always looked relaxed and happy. Great communication!”
“Rachel and Jason were wonderful with our new puppy. It was our first time leaving her overnight, and the videos and pictures were very reassuring. I know she was loved and well taken care of!”
“Dorian was great with our pups, and I can tell the dogs had a nice time. We were In a pinch to find a sitter since both of our boarding facilities were full for the weekend and Dorian made the process of booking very easy. We weren’t aware there would be other dogs in the house at the same time but our dogs are friendly and had no issues. Would be good to give a heads up in case other pet owners were to have a problem with that. We would use him again!”
“Gracie had a great stay with Kacy. This was a last-minute stay and Kacy and Justin were very accommodating. Gracie came back happy and tired, which is what we were looking for.”
“John and Jess were absolutely amazing with our fur baby!!! So communicative with plenty of pictures and updates. I never had to worry how he was doing, they constantly ensured he was well cared for and all his needs were met. Would definitely rebook when I need a dog sitter again!!”
About: I’m a responsible and caring dog owner who truly loves animals. I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, following their routine, and giving them plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m home most days, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I’m available on weekdays and weekends and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a clean, pet-friendly home with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can play safely. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, provide regular potty breaks, walks, fresh water, meals, and lots of love and attention.
“This was our first time using Rover or Rene. So glad we did! Our fur babies had a great time and she sent pictures throughout their stay which we loved! I know they loved getting to have a doggy vacation without having to stay in a kennel! Thanks so much Rene! 🐾”
“Chrissy is the BEST sitter on Rover. She takes AMAZING care of our dog when he stays at her house and does a great job with drop ins for my senior cat. They always get new treats and toys as long as you tell her it's okay! Our dog loves her and her existing pet family and is always excited when he gets to have a sleep over with Chrissy. Do yourself a favor and book her whenever you can!”
“My Golden had a wonderful 2 week stay with Karen. She sent videos and pictures everyday. Her whole family is so sweet and she has a beautiful property! Will definitely use her in the future.”
“Fantastic dog sitter! They agreed to help out last minute, which was such a lifesaver, and communication was excellent from start to finish. I always felt updated and reassured throughout the stay, and it was clear my dog was in great hands. Reliable, responsive, and caring. I would absolutely book with them again!”
About: I recently lost my 14-year old bulldog and I am looking to reconnect with dogs before committing to another long term companion. I have experience with senior dog care, to include dogs with cancer and dementia. I work full-time from home. During the day, I would be able to offer 2 15 -minute bathroom visits/walks during my breaks from work. I also have flexibility when other needs arise. In the evenings, I am free to give your dog as much love and attention as they desire. I only accept 1 dog at a time (unless multiple dogs are from the same owner and the dogs are pair bonded). I was single handedly responsible for my own dog for 11 years before she died of old age, so I know what it takes to compassionately care for a dog. I have also watched my friends’ dogs and my parent’s dog for weeks at a time. Taking care of dogs is not a new experience for me. I work from home and have complete control over the flexibility of my schedule. I can take breaks from my work to attend to your dogs needs 2 times per day during my 15-minute breaks. I am free evenings. I can also use my breaks to give walks/pet stop-ins if within close proximity to my house. I am willing to take care of dogs who prefer free play in a fenced in yard or those that prefer longer leash walks or park outings. I have no problem with free roam in the house or crating, whichever fits best with the dog’s regular routine. I have a big fenced in back yard and live in a neighborhood with sidewalks and a park 1 block away. I also have a good relationship with a local vet in case of emergencies.

“Sophia took great care of my cat while I was away. I’ve never had someone watch my cat before and she listened to all of my thoughts and answered my questions kindly. Sophia sent updates and photos while I was away and I am thankful she cared for my cat so well!”
About: I have raised my own dog since she was ten weeks old, mentored by my father who has raised three litters of puppies throughout his life. I have also done pet-sitting for friends and family for dogs as small as beagle puppies to as large as a Labrador. I am currently on summer break from graduate school, but I take five- mile walks every morning year-round. As my classes are in the evening, I can fit dog-walking into my schedule in the mornings and early afternoons. I am attentive and responsible for my pets needs, and take pride in ensuring that the animals I care for are happy and healthy. I have a nine-year-old mixed breed dog who enjoys her daily walks and sunbathing on the deck, but does not enjoy the company of other dogs very much.
“Amazing!!!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Lauren! She was so kind and attentive, and it was clear she genuinely cared for our cat. We appreciated the updates and photos—it really put us at ease while we were away.😊 I’d absolutely recommend Lauren’s services to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter. 10/10!”
“Shelby has been so thoughtful and so caring while taking care of my two cats. She is very communicative, which I love from a pet sitter, because I treat my cats like my children. She shared feedback about my cat’s behavior, appetite, and sent photos too. I will definitely be requesting her assistance with drop in visits in the future!”
“We have never booked a rover before, and Kim was beyond incredible. She was so helpful and extremely prompt on every message exchanged. She has now convinced me to book her in the future no matter what for our cat. She was so incredibly kind and I can't recommend her enough!”
“Misty did a wonderful job taking care of my two cats. She was available for a last minute holiday booking and worked around my schedule to come over to meet my cats. She was super communicative during her visits and sent adorable photos of my cats. She took great care of my pets and my home. I'll definitely rebook and recommend Misty to other pet parents.”
“Valerie was wonderful! The app shows she was timely and she sent updates as well as the cutest pics of them enjoying their time together. We will definitely book with Valerie again.”
“Leslie was amazing with my cats while I was away for a week. She was always punctual and sent me daily updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my cats were well cared for, and I came home to happy pets. I highly recommend her and would definitely book with her again!”
“Chrissy was incredible! I was anxious about leaving my cat, especially because she’s skittish around people, but Chrissy went above and beyond to stay on contact with me and was so good with my cat. She’s wonderful!”
“Samantha was a treat. Our cats warmed up very quickly. She followed our rules of the house, even the temporary rules for neuter recovery. She communicated well and sent lots of pictures and videos.”
“Alex was so amazing with our three cats. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, gave them lots of love and attention, and was able to give my elderly cat her medicine. Alex sent updates and pictures throughout our trip. The kitties were all healthy and happy when we returned. We will definitely use Alex again!”
“Per usual, Sara was wonderful and very communicative while dropping in on our 3 cats for a couple of days. We know the house and animals are always in great hands with her!”
“Alexis was a great caregiver for my sweet, old cat. On the first day, when Kippy did not appear to get her food and meds, Alexis searched and found her hiding place, thus ensuring Kippy got what she needed that morning. Alexis’s kind and gentle demeanor soon made Kippy lose her fear and she began greeting Alexis at the door. I would definitely hope Alexis was available the next time I need Killy care.”
“Maegan was fantastic! She showed up on time, everytime which is far different than sitters we have had previously. She was great with our dogs and they seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed her visits! Strongly recommend her!”
“Miriam took great care of our cats and we appreciated all the photos and updates. She was very responsive and easy to book with, even though we requested last minute due to our pet sitter cancelling before our 2+ week trip.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Spring Ridge
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and energy levels — from playful young labs and doodles to senior dogs and cats needing extra patience and attention. I’m naturally calm and gentle, but I also love matching a pet’s energy through play, walks, and engagement. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important trust and communication are, so I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Since I’m home from college for the summer, I have a very open and flexible schedule that allows me to fully focus on pet care. I’m able to provide pets with lots of attention, companionship, exercise, and regular updates for owners throughout the day. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by sticking to their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, feeding, and companionship while adapting to each pet’s personality and needs. I also provide regular updates and photos for owners while they’re away.

I volunteer at humane societies and have experience carrying for dogs with medical and special needs. No breed or size is off limits. I have a lot of experience with small dogs. I have used rover as a pet parent and strive to be the best sitter for you. I will provide daily updates via phone, text, or email depending on your preferences. I love sending photo updates of your pet doing fun things. We have a fenced yard for your pet to play in. I offer a complimentary meet and greet before your booking to become acquainted with you and your pets. This meet and greet is important to ensure I am the right fit for you and your pets. Im currently working part time so have plenty of time to play with your fur baby. I am available throughout the day to check in and walk your pets and am available for boarding throughout the week and on weekends. Your pet will have freedom throughout our row home and the fenced in yard. If they prefer their space, they will have a bedroom and floor all to themselves. If they like to make friends, we have one really friendly 7lb yorkshire terrier that would love to be their new friend. Our dog is crate trained and can be kept separated based on the client’s preference.

“We were so lucky to have Ellen watch our dog, Ziva! She has separation anxiety, and we were nervous about leaving her with someone new in a new environment. Ellen was so reassuring from the start, promising to take good care of her. And she absolutely did. Her sweet dog, Cleopatra, was so friendly and helped Ziva feel comfortable right away. Our first impression was unforgettable- Ziva followed Ellen, which is rare for her with someone she doesn’t know. Ellen took extra care to comfort Ziva when she was anxious and sent us picture updates that really put our minds at ease. Because of Ellen, we were able to enjoy our event without constantly checking our phones. This was such a relief, especially since we’ve had a bad experience with a previous sitter who never sent updates. Ellen went above and beyond, and we could truly feel the difference in Ziva’s comfort. We will definitely be using her services again. Thank you, Ellen, for caring for Ziva like she was your own!”
About: my goal is to provide the best pet, dog and cat sitting service. Read on for how I set out to be that special caregiver for your pets. I came to pets and pet sitting “later in life,” and discovered, with great gratitude, a passion and a gift for taking care of your precious animal companions… because that is what they are, for you and for me. I’m not a casual caregiver, or a friend; I’m not walking your dog or feeding your cat or talking to your bird as a favor to you or as a part-time job or hobby. Nor am I in a hurry to get out of your home, or to ‘fit you in’ between errands. My total focus is your two most precious possessions: Your pets and your property…all day long, usually 7 days a week! I’m a full-time professional pet sitter, dedicated to the loving details of caring for your cats, dogs, birds and even chickens! I believe that pets should be as happy with a sitter as they are when their owners are at home (or close to it!). As one Asheville cat owner put it: “I enjoy your notes immensely. I feel like you know my cats as well as I do after a few short days.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine compassionate care I bring to ensuring your pet feels completely safe, loved, and understood while you are away. I focus on creating a gentle, stress-free environment tailored entirely to your furry friends’ comforting daily routines. Beyond dogs and cats, I have specialized experience with the delicate needs of small animals like rabbits, and would be more than happy to care for pets of any size! I am a recent GW grad and I have a very flexible schedule. Aside from doing occasional tutoring sessions throughout the week, I am home for the majority of the day and have the time to dedicate myself to taking care of your furry friend! When caring for pets in their own space, my primary goal is to maintain their established routine exactly as they know it to minimize anxiety. When a pet stays with me, they are welcomed into a structured, highly supervised, and pet-safe environment designed to feel like a second home. I love all animals and want to make them feel safe in any environment!

About: Responsible and caring dog lover with years of experience providing reliable walking and sitting services.

I carefully follow each pet's routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. I understand how important trust is when someone else is caring for your furry family member. I believe in keeping pet parents informed with regular updates and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring and responsible hands.

I offer a complimentary meet and greet before your booking to become acquainted with you and your pets. This meet and greet is beneficial to ensure I am the right fit for you and your pets. I will take special care to keep your pet happy and healthy. Throughout your pets' stay with me, I will follow your instructions down to the tee, communicate with you throughout the day with updates or pictures through text, calls, or even email!

I am currently working full time but I’m off on weekends, holidays and will be available for the summer (June-August). Your furbaby will have a wonderful vacation with Lucy and me! I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your furbaby company. I can allow a crate as needed. I always take my dog and rover dogs out for long walks.
“This was Jax's first time with Nat and Ally and it was fantastic. They kept me updated most of the day with very fun-loving photos of the other dogs playing...Jax was smiling in every photo or just chillin'. The icing on the cake was the family's son handing me a drawing of Jax's name in big beautiful letters. I will definitely be sending Jax here again! :)”
“John and Jess were Amazing. Arly was a great addition to their Z crew trio. She was so excited to be there and they welcomed her with open arms. I'm so glad we met and she has a new family of friends in Frederick. We will definitely be calling again soon.”
About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with childhood dogs (Lab and a Scottish Terrier) and love all animals! I'm the go-to dog sitter for both family and neighbors as we have lots of extra room in our house and hearts, along with a fenced in yard. I can't wait to treat your baby like my own! My husband works from home and can let your fur baby outside as needed and keep them company. I love to cater to your dogs needs! Whether that's a game of fetch in the back yard, going for a long walk, meeting new friends at my neighborhood dog park, or hanging out on the couch, I'm just happy to have them around! I have a fenced in yard and a friendly cat at home. He keeps to himself for the most part. I also have two children who love to play with and respect animals as much as I do!
“Rachel and Jason were great! I provided Rachel with a list of things we do to train our puppy and she was so helpful, she helped us with reinforcing his training. I have already booked a future stay for Kuzco with them. Hr had a blast.”
“Marne, Bailey, and her family welcomed Leah last minute. Even though we both prefer meet and greets, they opened their doors to Leah for a full 10-hr daycare. They alsl addressed all my questions before booking, and before and after daycare. Loved, loved, loved the full communication between us about Leah's day and took great care of all Leah's need in a very structured manner. Based on the report card, leah had a blast with them. As a first time customer to them, I'm beyond happy to call them my first official dog sitters in their area, especially since I move all the time around the District of Columbia and the surrounding states. Thank you so much! We'll see you again!”
“Rene has been amazing for my dog, Bentley! She has been keeping Bentley during the day for doggy day care and he always comes home exhausted which makes me a happy mommy because it means he has had a busy day! I would definitely recommend rene!”

“Lauren was a pleasure to work with and having her help was greatly appreciated and our pups enjoyed her visiting ! She's very responsive and takes in feedback very well! I would recommend her to others.”
About: As the go-to person for friends in need of dog-sitting, I recently figured "Why not expand?", hence my decision to register with Rover. Setting dogs and their people at ease brings me joy! I've had two dogs over the past 20 years: one slightly demonic and requiring special precautions, and the other a big, gentle galoot. Both absolutely stole my heart. I work from home and am available for walking (give me allll the exercise) and sitting (give me allll the cuddles). I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I'm around to give attention as needed, 7 days/week. I'm an early riser (6:30 give or take), so early walks or breakfasts would be no problem. I have a fenced yard that would be secure for all but the most accomplished escape artists. Your pet would have full access to all parts of the house (including furniture). That said, if crating, furniture restrictions, etc. work better for you and your dog, I would happily honor your typical rules and routines.
About: I'm an early bird gets the worm so I have wanted to start walking dogs for families or busy people that need to go to work. Trust me to take care of your pet! Working part time so it goes well into my routine. I am very flexible and can work with your schedule. Either mornings or evenings works for me I can make sure your pets have clean water and been fed properly. If they need oral medication I can make sure they take what they need
“Adrienne is thoughtful and caring and very very good at communicating. This is my 3rd time leaving my dog (a somewhat demanding pug) in her care. It will certainly not be our last.”
About: My experience and education ensures the safety of animals of varying temperament levels and backgrounds. I enjoy the process of building trust and confidence with animals through approved training methods/mental enrichment activities and using non verbal cues in a playful and meaningful way. Because I don't own any pets of my own I'm able to assist pet owners when they're away from home. I often accept requests up to 3 months ahead of time but, if possible, I will accept same day requests. Many clients value how I communicate and ask if I'm a trainer (I'm not certified yet) because I handle animals so well. You can expect detailed observational updates twice a day accompanied with photos and videos.
“Misty is fantastic. Caring about your pup…treats like her own. On time, just wonderful to work with, and my dog never looked back as he went out the door. Instantly knew he was loved.”
About: I’ve had various animals all my life including: chickens, rabbits, fish, dogs and cats! I hope to take good care of your fur babies 🐈💕 I am currently working part time so I am available most days! I feed my cat around 5pm each day. Happy to board your cat as well! We have plenty of space in our townhouse. We have two cats, Nimbus and Kiki. We have a large couch, pet beds, and a tower. The kitchen and living room are an open floor plan. Also have lots of toys and strings!
“So happy we have Samantha walking our Siberian Husky several days a week. She is so pleasant, poised, punctual and professional. Merida is very much enjoying Samantha's company!”
About: 🐾 About Me Hi there! I’m Kiara — a lifelong animal lover with over 14 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. From tiny, timid pups to big, energetic adventurers, I’ve learned that every dog has their own unique way of showing love — and I adore getting to know each one. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets through professional services, friends, and families, providing everything from daily walks and cuddle time to medication administration and overnight stays. My priority is always to make your pets feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. 🐶 What You Can Expect • Reliable, communicative, and attentive care • Plenty of photo updates so you can relax while you’re away • A calm, loving environment with playtime, snuggles, and routine care • Experience with senior dogs and pets who need medication Whether your pup loves a long walk, a cozy nap, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to give them the same love and attention I’d want for my own fur babies. Can’t wait to meet your four-legged family member! 💕 I’m currently focusing on school, because of that I have a very flexible schedule which gives me a bit of extra time to take care of your pets weather is at your home or overnight at mines. I always ask the pet owners what is their daily routine with their fur babies and I will of course continue on with that same daily routine in my own home. I have a small dog and cat who love to cuddle and play! Your fur babies won’t be bored one bit!
“Valerie was extremely patient and kind with the dogs who were timid when she arrived. She took the time to let them warm up, eat, and also come to her for pets. Charlie requires insulin injections and Valerie came over before the visit to see how to perform it. We will gladly have her take care of the brood again.”
About: I started dog sitting for neighbors when I was in middle school and now I’m in my forties so that’s a few decades of experience! I’m a teacher looking to make some money over summer break, but I also want to pet and cuddle as many dogs and cats as possible while I’m at it. I will love your pets as if they were my own, and I can’t wait to meet them! (I also have four cats and two dogs of my own.) I’m a teacher on summer break, so my availability is wide open! Happy to stop by as many times as needed to take care of your furbabies. My dogs are young golden retrievers, so I’m quite familiar and comfortable with high energy pups. I’m extra cautious about hot asphalt on sunny summer days, and I’ll try my best to ensure your pup doesn’t use your neighbors lawn as a potty! I will take my time with your pets and get to know them so that they will hopefully be as happy to see me as I am to see them! I won’t just rush in and out, I’ll give them some extra pets and hugs and make sure they know that they’re the best boy/ girl in the world!
“Jessie has been wonderful with our pup Sadie. She is a great communicator and texts updates if there are any changes to the schedule. It’s fun to see all the pictures she adds to the daily report. We appreciate all she does for Sadie.”

“Nat and Ally took great care of my dog and I can tell he had a great time and was a part of the family for the few days he was there. I got plenty of photos of my dog hanging with their dog and children and he always looked relaxed and happy. Great communication!”
“Dorian was great with our pups, and I can tell the dogs had a nice time. We were In a pinch to find a sitter since both of our boarding facilities were full for the weekend and Dorian made the process of booking very easy. We weren’t aware there would be other dogs in the house at the same time but our dogs are friendly and had no issues. Would be good to give a heads up in case other pet owners were to have a problem with that. We would use him again!”
“Gracie had a great stay with Kacy. This was a last-minute stay and Kacy and Justin were very accommodating. Gracie came back happy and tired, which is what we were looking for.”
“My Golden had a wonderful 2 week stay with Karen. She sent videos and pictures everyday. Her whole family is so sweet and she has a beautiful property! Will definitely use her in the future.”
“Fantastic dog sitter! They agreed to help out last minute, which was such a lifesaver, and communication was excellent from start to finish. I always felt updated and reassured throughout the stay, and it was clear my dog was in great hands. Reliable, responsive, and caring. I would absolutely book with them again!”
About: I recently lost my 14-year old bulldog and I am looking to reconnect with dogs before committing to another long term companion. I have experience with senior dog care, to include dogs with cancer and dementia. I work full-time from home. During the day, I would be able to offer 2 15 -minute bathroom visits/walks during my breaks from work. I also have flexibility when other needs arise. In the evenings, I am free to give your dog as much love and attention as they desire. I only accept 1 dog at a time (unless multiple dogs are from the same owner and the dogs are pair bonded). I was single handedly responsible for my own dog for 11 years before she died of old age, so I know what it takes to compassionately care for a dog. I have also watched my friends’ dogs and my parent’s dog for weeks at a time. Taking care of dogs is not a new experience for me. I work from home and have complete control over the flexibility of my schedule. I can take breaks from my work to attend to your dogs needs 2 times per day during my 15-minute breaks. I am free evenings. I can also use my breaks to give walks/pet stop-ins if within close proximity to my house. I am willing to take care of dogs who prefer free play in a fenced in yard or those that prefer longer leash walks or park outings. I have no problem with free roam in the house or crating, whichever fits best with the dog’s regular routine. I have a big fenced in back yard and live in a neighborhood with sidewalks and a park 1 block away. I also have a good relationship with a local vet in case of emergencies.
“Casey was awesome with Coda! She had a great time hanging out and running around with her dog Jojo. She’s already been sleeping most of the day just from all the fun she had there.”
“Soumen is amazing! It was my first time having Nala stay with him and his family. She was treated like one of their own, sent pictures and communicated perfectly. If Soumen is available to watch your dog they are lucky to be in such great hands. Thank you for going above and beyond to care for my baby and to make me feel comfortable leaving her in such caring hands. I watch dogs for a living and Soumen is who I go to when I need someone to watch Nala! Thank you!!”
“Thanks Sneha for taking good care of Zeno. Zeno had a wonderful time and he totally enjoyed the stay. Timely texting of videos were very helpful and my daughter was happy that Zeno was having fun. Special thanks for accommodating Zeno. I am recommending Sneha to all my friends who have pets.”
About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and energy levels — from playful young labs and doodles to senior dogs and cats needing extra patience and attention. I’m naturally calm and gentle, but I also love matching a pet’s energy through play, walks, and engagement. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important trust and communication are, so I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Since I’m home from college for the summer, I have a very open and flexible schedule that allows me to fully focus on pet care. I’m able to provide pets with lots of attention, companionship, exercise, and regular updates for owners throughout the day. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by sticking to their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, feeding, and companionship while adapting to each pet’s personality and needs. I also provide regular updates and photos for owners while they’re away.
“Jennifer was absolutely wonderful with our dogs! When we picked our dogs up, they were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It's always reassuring to see your pets content and comfortable after being away from home, and that speaks volumes about the care and attention Jennifer provided. She treated them like her own, making sure they felt safe, loved, and cared for throughout their stay. Jennifer was also communicative, reliable, and easy to work with, which made the entire experience stress-free. We could tell our dogs received plenty of affection, attention, and companionship while they were with her. We are so grateful for the great care she provided and would not hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine compassionate care I bring to ensuring your pet feels completely safe, loved, and understood while you are away. I focus on creating a gentle, stress-free environment tailored entirely to your furry friends’ comforting daily routines. Beyond dogs and cats, I have specialized experience with the delicate needs of small animals like rabbits, and would be more than happy to care for pets of any size! I am a recent GW grad and I have a very flexible schedule. Aside from doing occasional tutoring sessions throughout the week, I am home for the majority of the day and have the time to dedicate myself to taking care of your furry friend! When caring for pets in their own space, my primary goal is to maintain their established routine exactly as they know it to minimize anxiety. When a pet stays with me, they are welcomed into a structured, highly supervised, and pet-safe environment designed to feel like a second home. I love all animals and want to make them feel safe in any environment!
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs for many years and currently have two senior dogs of my own, so I understand the patience, attention, and consistency pets need to feel comfortable and safe. I have experience with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and the extra care that comes with older dogs. I’m dependable, attentive, and will treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I give my own. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets while you’re away, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks on both weekdays and weekends. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and bedtime routines. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, routines, and household rules. I take time to learn each pet’s personality and respect their boundaries, especially with senior, shy, or anxious pets. When staying in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space, keep the home secure, and provide regular updates so owners can feel comfortable while they’re away.
“Marieliz was fantastic with our dog. We have a larger breed dog, and she was confident and able to handle him with no problem. She made us feel very comfortable while traveling, keeping us up-to-date with a daily summary and photos and videos of how he was doing and what they did throughout the day. She kept his routine, and feeding schedule the same way we have it at home. She gave him a great deal with love and he came back happy and healthy. We would definitely use her again.”
