“Shuling was very attentive and kept in contact with us during Gizmo’s stay. We received several photos throughout the weekend. With Gizmo being blind, we are always concerned for her safety but Shuling set our minds at ease. Will definitely use her again when we come to Annapolis. 🥰”
“Katelyn provided the most amazing care for our puppy!! He was spoiled with multiple walks, many treats, and tons of snuggles while we were away for a long weekend. He became friends with their sweet husky as well. Can’t wait for him to stay with her family again soon!! Thank you!!”
“Elena did an amazing job with our Old English Sheepdog Lady. I could really tell that she loves taking care of animals, and she did a great job. Our dog was pretty nervous as she went to the vet the day before, but Eleana made her feel at home and I thank her for that. I highly recommend her.”
“Carlie and her family could not have been more loving and attentive. Arlo probably wanted to live there forever. She was incredibly kind about a mistake I made on pick up time.”
“Jasmine was fantastic with our two dogs for 10 days over Christmas! Daily walks and pictures were sent to us. I felt so at peace knowing they were being well taken care of. When our flight times coming home got changed, Jasmine was so understanding and flexible with our pickup. Great experience, highly recommended!”
“Our first visit was so smooth. My dog seemed immediately comfortable with Katie. She sent pictures through the weekend and was flexible with pickup times. We are already looking to rebook her for next month. Thanks Katie?”

“Angela was so very warm, welcoming, and kind to our puppy. Minnie took to her right away, and because of the meet and greet, she knew exactly where we were going when we dropped her off. Angela was very thorough, asking all the important questions, and she even let my daughter visit to say hi to Minnie.”
“Our pets felt right at home with Janice and Stalio. They were so welcoming, helpful and accommodating with our boys. They kept us up to date daily with pictures and messages and even helped us out with making them their food because we miscounted the amount we sent. They provided amazing care and we look forward to rebooking with them in the future.”
“Deivy is a very kind and gentle soul. His family is very sweet and his kids clearly enjoy the dogs. He worked hard to accommodate my elderly pet's needs without complaint and also worked hard to gain the trust of my younger skittish dog. Highly recommend!”
“Brittany was absolutely fantastic. This was my first rover and she put me totally at ease and sent me pictures of my dogs each day. Would highly recommend her and I will be back for repeat business!”
“Lovely family with a great house and very caring and attentive with our dog Ghost! She sent multiple photos and videos every few hours each day, and you could tell Ghost was loving his time with her. She obviously cared for Ghost like he was her own, and we will be using her for all of our future boarding needs!”
“Peggy is an absolutely fantastic fur-babysitter. She’s very friendly, communicative, and puts full effort into the care of your pet. While away, I received daily updates and photos, which were greatly appreciated. Peggy will be my go-to sitter going forward. Highly recommend! A+”
“This Tiko’s second time staying with Yousef and we couldn’t be happier, they are communicative and always send pics. Tiko is always happy when he returns and there is little to no anxiety. I can tell that he truly enjoys his time there!”

“Bella did a great job! She was super easy to communicate with. Based on the pictures she sent of my cat, it seemed like Tabby really liked her, which is rare with pet sitters! I would definitely hire Bella again!”
“Samantha did a fabulous job of staying at our house and taking care of our cat Duke while we were on vacation. She was even flexible and stayed an additional night at the beginning since we needed to depart a day earlier to avoid any weather delays. She sent daily pictures and kept in touch with us throughout the stay. I recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
“Owen was so kind, patient and helpful while we were away. He took care of everything that we asked and went above and beyond. Thank you so much! Definitely recommend working with him.”
“Jacqueline was fantastic. She came for a meet and greet and Sophia, my cat, took right to her. She followed all my instructions, but she left me with a real sense of comfort that Sophie was going to be in amazing hands. I felt so comfortable while on vacation and I loved the videos and pictures she sent to me. It was a really great experience and she is the only one I will hire in the future.”
“Our trip was brief, but Allison sent lots of great pic of our pets living their best lives! She was very responsive from the beginning of our getting in touch with her. Our pets seemed to like her immediately upon meeting her.”
“Alexia is a Great Pet Sitter, she helped Rako out for 9 days, with our return He was Given Food and Water, and there was no mess. I love how she took care of his pads. Great Young Lady to hire.”
“My cats love Courtney! Especially my super shy boy comes out of shell when he sees her. I’m super happy with her taking care of my two little ones, she spends quality time with them and doesn’t cut her visits short. I also really appreciate the detailed write up and the cute photos. Thank you, Courtney!”
“Sarah was able to jump in last-minute when my other cat care fell through and was great! My cat was very comfortable with her. As far as my cat's mood was concerned, coming home from the airport might as well been coming home from the office, which is always a sign of great pet care.”
“Knowing Serena is here to save the day, I feel confident my kitties are in good hands. She pays so much attention to detail, spends quality time with the fur babies, sends plenty of updates and pictures, and ensures even the most scardiest of cats is comfortable. Thank you Serena!”
“Jessica was a great pet sitter for our 2 cats! She did a great job administering medication to our cat, who typically hates it and hides. She communicated well and was very reliable! We will definitely be using her again!”
“Sabine is a fabulous pet sitter. She genuinely cares about your pet. She took great care of my 2 cats. My cats are normally very shy of strangers, but one of them came out to watch Sabine. And that's the cat that is very reclusive. That speaks volumes to the loving and caring energy Sabine has which my cats picked up. Sabine was very attentive to the cat feeding instructions. I can tell she really cared about my two cats. I highly recommend Sabine to anyone who needs their furry loved ones to be cared for while they are away. You can rest assured your fur baby will be well taken care of.”

About: I've recently graduated college and now have a lot of free time on my hands. I love animals so much(perhaps more than people...). I have experience in taking care of dogs of various sizes and temperaments. Growing up I've had a puggle, boxer, and now two german shepherd mixes who were adopted from shelters. I've volunteered at animal shelters where I walked, cleaned, brushed, and fed dogs. Furthermore, I've pet sat for neighbors and family members. My dogs live with my parents in Cascade, so I don't live with dogs nor other humans at my house in Annapolis. I would love to take care of your pets! I will be starting a program that runs from M-F 9-3:30 soon, but am available after 3:30 M-F and all day on Saturdays/Sundays. I could walk, feed, or let out your pets before 9 as well. The M-F schedule will change come the end of July which would give me more availability on those days. When I'm at my parent's house, I let my dogs out in the mornings, feed them breakfast and dinner, give them medicine, go on walks/hikes, practice tricks and obedience tasks with them, and play with them. I'm more than happy to provide these services in my client's home too!
“I adore Veronica and her husband !! Best dog sitters I have ever met! So attentive and caring! I can tell they love dogs so much! Solo has the best time when he visits them!”
“**By: Ggamang** Moving from the West Coast to the East Coast was a huge adjustment for me—new smells, new parks, and a lot of nerves. I wasn't sure I'd find a new "person" out here, but I’m so glad we found Kyury. Kyury is patient, reliable, and made me feel at home right away. It’s a huge relief for my parents to have someone they can truly trust while we settle into our new life on this coast. Whether we’re out on a walk or just hanging out, I always have the best time. If you need a sitter who genuinely cares, Kyury is the best! **5/5 Wags!**”
“Alex Z. was amazing! Very loving and caring while dog sitting for my 3 month old puppy. Her pets were loving and playful also. She took lots of pics and kept me updated with his activities throughout the day. Will definitely request her services again.”
“Maggie had a great time having a calm day with Dana instead of staying home for our 3 year old daughter’s birthday party (with 12 other 3 year olds!) - Dana was really responsive and very responsible and Maggie was so happy!”

“Marley was absolutely wonderful with Fiora! The photos she sent during each walk were beautiful, and Fiora always came home happy and pleasantly worn out — which is everything you could ask for. We couldn't recommend her more highly, and she'll be our first call whenever Fiora needs her daily walk covered.”
“Heather was fantastic, responsible, punctual, and clearly great with dogs. Chance warmed up to her right away, and I appreciated the updates and photos. I will definitely book her again.”
“Liza was excellent, showed up on time, spent extra time with Rudy, gave us a great updates on how he was doing along with pictures :) We would definitely recommend Liza- Rudy can’t wait to see her again!!”
About: I’ve had experience with small and medium size dogs for several years and also have two of my own at home so I understand how important it is to know they are well cared for. I promise to love and take care of them while their parents are away. I work hybrid so I have plenty of time to make sure your pets are cared for and walked every 2-4 hours and kept on their normal schedule. I will take good care of them and also protect your home and keep it clean. Pets will feel comfortable and safe in their home environment.
“My family loved Allison! She helped to walk both my dogs while I was out of the country. She was able to control my larger dog who suffers from anxiety with other dogs and help give medications to my senior dog. We appreciate her patience and professionalism!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10! I have always been the go to for friends and neighbors when it comes to pet sitting! I love going on long walks with dogs and I also love brushing and doing basic grooming if they need it! I’m currently enrolled at University of Georgia and am a full time student! My class schedule is pretty consistent, but i can always make time to take care of a pup or cat! When caring for other pets at client’s homes I always make sure that they are in my sight! I think this is really important when letting a dog out to play in a backyard or if there are any other special instructions that require it (example: making sure a dog/cat eats the medicine and designated food for them)!
“Owen is reliable, kind and trustworthy. He shows up, gives my dog a good walk regardless of the weather, and responds quickly. I highly recommend him to anyone that needs a walker.”
“Appreciate Nicole's care and attention for my pup Cassie on their walk. Cassie likes to take her time, stopping to sniff spots or lay down, so I booked an hour walk. Nicole made sure she got the full walk in so Cassie could enjoy her usual exercise and mental stimulation.”

“Kayla was fantastic with our dog, Kona! She communicated clearly, sent great photo updates, and was very respectful of our home. Kona loved her walks and came back happy every time. Highly recommend!”
“Kacie was so sweet to my pup! She sent a lot of updates on how my dog was doing and gave her so much attention. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to help out with my baby”
“Highly recommend Ryan! He took the time to do a meet and greet and really understand my dog’s specific needs. He was very communicative and flexible whenever any changes came up, which I truly appreciated. What stood out most was how he followed my dog’s training routines and even used the exact phrases we’ve been working on. He handled my dog’s reactivity with care and confidence, and it made a huge difference. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands!”
“Whitney is an amazing walker for our full of life puppy WALL-E. Her introduction was very friendly. Her communication is great. I would definitely recommend Whitney to anyone and for the new and existing ROVER members that's in the area. Take heed to what's needed for our handsome little guy!! You Rocks Whitney!!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds & sizes over the years. I am comfortable with puppies through senior age. Friends, family and clients have relied on me to feed, walk, play with, clean up after, and love their pups as if they were my own. I can administer medications, including injections, and sq fluids. I can practice obedience skills during my visits as well. I’m available for pet care visits on Wednesday & Thursday mornings as well as evenings, Friday afternoon-evening, and all day on Saturdays and Sundays. I am also available on major holidays.

“We have had Sari watch Rusty twice now and she has done an amazing job! It was a weight off of my shoulders going into the second time because I knew he'd be well taken care of and have a great time with her. She does incredible long walks and even took him to a park on the water, which was a new experience for him! I cannot recommend Sari enough.”
“Brandon was so accommodating and kind when I needed a last minute sitter. He sent lots of pictures and updated me that Molly was doing well. Molly seemed like she had a blast playing with his dog and getting to run around in the backyard”

Tanya gave me regular photo and video updates while I was away, I had no worries, and knew she was in excellent hands. 110% would use Tanya again for boarding.”

Lindsay provided a safe, loving, and fun environment, and we’re so grateful for her care. Highly recommend!”
